101.Hangfeng Assassination (4)
"Are you provoking me?" Hang Feng was naturally not so easy to be tricked by him, he just smiled, and then said: "You are a person from Qianji Pavilion, you naturally know that it is impossible to reveal tasks to each other." You're so blatantly trying to swap things with me, you're going to be too bold, aren't you? Although you are the son of the pavilion master, the rules of the pavilion are not privileged by anyone. You are no exception. ”
"What if I have the Cabinet Master's Order?" Natsu said as he pulled out a gold-encrusted token from his waist.
The token wasn't in his possession, he had stolen it by himself after accepting the last mission. As a replacement gold medal, Xia Shu put a similar gold medal in it. As for the gold medal, it was just a gift from Xia Shiren to make him happy when he was young. Xia Shiren never thought that what he had made him happy would become a replacement for him after stealing the pavilion master's order.
"How is that possible? The cabinet master ordered that unless there was a major event in the cabinet, it could not be taken out easily. ”
"If you don't believe me, I'll show you the token?" Xia Zu's face was full of disapproval, and then he threw the token in his hand out.
Hangfeng took the token and looked at it carefully. The Pavilion Master of the Thousand Machines Pavilion made him only see it once. It was his fifth year in the Thousand Machines Pavilion. At that time, Xia Shiren was only an expatriate official with five official residences, and he was just an apprentice who learned from his master. That year, Xia Shiren used the Pavilion Master Order because of his wife, Mrs. Luo Yue. He doesn't remember much about what he was doing at the time. But with the appearance of the cabinet master's order, he promised to remember it for the rest of his life. Because this pavilion master makes its workmanship and material rare.
The main order of the Thousand Machines Pavilion, the jade body is inlaid with gold, and the soul body is transparent. There are two words engraved on the jade - Qianji. The jade is not large, wrapped in pure gold on the outside, and is carved with a white tiger on one side and a red bird on the other. There are two rows of small characters written on the side of it: Thousands of faces, the mechanism is difficult to find. What these two sentences represent, only Xia Shiren knows.
Hang Feng carefully looked at the Pavilion Master Order in his hand, and then said, "I didn't expect the Pavilion Master to actually activate the Pavilion Master Order." Then it's convenient for me to know what the Pavilion Master's order is this time? ”
Xia Shu smiled and stood up. walked over and took the Pavilion Master Order in Hangfeng's hand, and then said, "You just said that the order of the Thousand Machines Pavilion is not allowed by anyone to reveal the tasks they are performing, so I can't reveal it either." What's more, my mission is related to the Thousand Machines Pavilion, how can I tell you so easily? ”
Hangfeng can't wait to beat himself in the mouth at the moment. However, he really couldn't tell anyone about his mission. After all, this matter is not big or small for Qianji Pavilion, if it is not handled well, then it may be a big deal.
Looking at his tightly knit brows, Xia Shu said, "Since you don't have anything to say, then I'll leave." As for what happened when I took the Cabinet Master's order, I hope you will rot it in your stomach. ”
"Subordinates obey."
Before Hangfeng finished speaking, Xia Yu was gone. Hangfeng was still skeptical about Xia Shu's appearance, but he didn't have much time to think about it now. He shook off the doubts in his heart and seriously thought about the final plan.
Finally, three days later, the final action began. This time he decided to get closer to Luo Ge. He came to the summer resort early, found an unimportant chamberlain to kill him, and after hastily burying his body, he changed into the clothes of an attendant and blended into the daily morning cleaning team.
Regarding the appearance of the new face, Qianle turned his head and said with a smile: "Which palace are you a chamberlain, why haven't I seen you before?" The face is very raw. ”
Hangfeng pinched his throat and said, "I only entered the palace last month. ”
"Last month? Why haven't I heard of it? Chiraku thought back to all of last month's schedule.
"I'm not a normal chamberlain who was selected to enter the palace. I sold myself to others and was stuffed into the palace by others. Hangfeng deliberately approached Qianle and said in a low voice.
Qianle nodded knowingly and said, "Since that's the case, then you should be careful." It's your first time cleaning today. Just follow me. ”
Hangfeng nodded.
Today's low-ranking chamberlain's task is to clean and clean the Huaqing Pond in the summer resort. Huaqing Pond was originally intended to be used as a bathing place for the king and his concubines. However, because the location of this Huaqing Pond is not very good, the Huaqing Pond was changed into a fish pond suitable for ornamentation. However, because the water in this pond is left from the mountains, but because the upstream is diverted by local residents, the daily flowing water does not guarantee the cleanliness of the fish pond. Therefore, someone will be sent to change the water in the fish pond every month. It just so happens that today is the day to change the water.
Hangfeng didn't know the specific situation, so he followed Qianle to the fish pond. Looking at the huge pool, Hangfeng's temper went up, and he almost didn't scold. But for the sake of the task, he had to endure. At the end of the day, Hangfeng didn't do anything but work next to Huaqing Pond. I didn't even see Luo Ge's face.
"Why do you spend all day looking around, and your expression is so solemn?" Qianle asked as she packed her things.
"I've always wanted to go to the toilet. But...... I couldn't find a place. So...... Until now. Hangfeng frowned.
"I see, why didn't you say it earlier." Qianle smiled and put down the things in his hand, then patted Hangfeng's shoulder and said, "Go, follow me." I'll take you. ”
"And this thing?" Hangfeng pretended to be embarrassed and pointed to the half-arranged things on the ground.
"It's okay to leave it alone. Today's business is done. I'll just come and clean up later. ”
Hangfeng looked at Qianle and then at the things on the ground, deliberately freeing up five steps to keep up with Qianle. Qianle led him to turn left and right before he came to a hidden hut. He pointed to the sign on it and said, "Look, this is the nearest toilet location." And you keep it in mind. Don't make a mistake next time. ”
Hangfeng nodded after thanking him and rushed in. But Qianle waited for a while, but there was no movement inside. He said, "Why don't you listen to you?" ”
Hangfeng stood in the room and shouted, "I'm not used to having people around." So...... Can you trouble Lord Qianle to avoid it? ”
When Qianle heard this, he smiled. After answering the call, he left.
Listening to the footsteps that were getting farther away, Hangfeng poked his head out and looked. Then immediately dodge away. Qianle originally thought of waiting for Hangfeng not far from the house, but as soon as she thought that her things for the day had not been packed, she immediately rushed back.
The flying wind that flashed away followed the eaves until he found the Linhua Palace. When he arrived, he was just leaving. The sun is setting in the west. This time happened to be the time when Mu Ziqin went to the imperial study to review the recitals, so Luo Ge had an hour to wander around or rest in the palace. However, according to Luo Ge's usual habit, he must stay in the palace to read books, learn words, or study prescriptions. However, because he came to the summer resort this time, Luo Ge did not bring too many books. She had already finished watching it a few days ago, so today she plans to watch it a second time.
She got up and stood in front of the bookshelf, carefully rummaging through the books she wanted to read. At this moment, Hangfeng found a vacant luck and shot an ice needle directly at Luo Ge's back. Because Luo Ge turned her back to the window, when she found out, the ice needle had already entered her body, and suddenly, she felt the pain and then the black attacked, and then she didn't wake up.
Because Luo Ge fell, the bookshelf in front of her was also pushed forward, and the guards guarding the door broke in, while Yun Lan, who was in the outhouse, quickly ran in. The secret guard guarding Luo Ge outside the window immediately searched the surroundings, looking for traces of the airwind, but found nothing. At that time, the air wind had already died.
Faced with the panicked picture, Yun Lan sent someone to ask for the imperial doctor and sent someone to inform the king, and finally she found a guard to carry Luo Ge to the bed and let her lie on her stomach. When the imperial doctor felt it, Mu Ziqin also arrived.
The first thing Mu Ziqin said when he entered the house was to ask Yun Lan what the situation was.
"Back to the king, the mother said today that she would read in the study, and let the slave wait outside the house. But who knew that Niangniang had only gone in and heard the sound for a while. The slave called the maid a few times outside, and when she saw that there was no movement, she entered the house without permission. When I entered the house, I saw that Niangniang's left back was injured, and the blood behind her had stained the clothes she was wearing red. ”
"Did you ever stab any suspicious murder weapon or person when you entered the house?"
"Back to the king, no. The slave and maid are the only ones who go in. Only the adjacent windows are ajar. ”
After hearing this, Mu Ziqin was furious and said, "Let the secret guard on duty today come to see Gu!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw three people dressed in black and wearing black masks kneeling in front of him.
"We have sent more people to let you take a good look at Concubine De, why are you injured again? Could it be that finding someone to train you and let you learn so much kung fu is what makes you like this at a critical moment? You can't even protect Concubine De now, how will you be when Lone is really injured? ”
Before Mu Ziqin's words fell, he heard the neat answer of the three people kneeling below: "The subordinates are derelict in their duties, and the king is guilty." ”
The secret guard did not have a word of sophistry, but directly asked Mu Ziqin to surrender. Mu Ziqin is not such an unsympathetic person. He said, "Go to the Secret Guard and receive your punishment now." ”
The three of them answered and walked away. Mu Ziqin turned around and walked into Luo Ge's bedroom.
I saw that the imperial doctor was knowing that Yun Lan was bandaging Luo Ge's wounds. He immediately stepped forward and asked, "How is the situation now?" ”
"The old minister has seen the king." The imperial doctor simply saluted and replied, "Niangniang was injured in the heart behind her, and the murder weapon can't tell what it is." But all that a slave can do has been done. The rest is up to the king. ”
"By loneliness?" Mu Ziqin asked rhetorically.
Because the pulse of Niangniang's heart was extremely weak, and the whole person began to get cold from the inside out. The old minister pierced a silver needle. I protected my heart for the time being, but I didn't know what to do after that. ”
"Then tell Lone your guess." Mu Ziqin has always known the temper of the Tai Hospital, and the older he gets, the less he likes to tell the truth, for fear that one day he will anger him and lose his official position.
