Chapter 123: Replacement
In the imperial study, Yin Huan was looking at the list of famous killers on the rivers and lakes handed over to him by Shen Muzhi.
After reading it, Yin Huan actually had a certain number in his heart, but he still asked Shen Muzhi and said, "Shen Aiqing, in your opinion, who should I choose to complete the task of assassinating Prince Yin's family?" β
Shen Muzhi said: "Back to the emperor, Weichen thinks that it is the Hellfire Palace." β
Although Shen Muzhi stood on Yin Jiuyue's side, he couldn't release water to Yin Jiuyue and them in the matter of choosing a killer for Yin Huan. If he deliberately made some killers with poor strength to make up the numbers, Yin Huan was not a fool, and after a little investigation, he would know that he was deliberately perfunctory, then it would definitely make Yin Huan suspicious of himself.
And the reason why Shen Muzhi recommended the Hellfire Hall was also obvious. Throughout the Great Zhou, there is no killer organization that can be compared to the Hellfire Temple.
The Temple of Stygian Fire is a mysterious organization of killers, this organization is highly disciplined, every action is precise and fast, and the tasks of the employer have never been missed. No one knows how many killers there are under the Stygian Fire Temple, so even if the assassinated target already knows in advance that the people from the Stygian Fire Temple are coming to assassinate him, there is no way to prevent it, and it is very likely that the guards around you who protect you will become the killers of the Stygian Fire Temple to kill you.
Sure enough, Yin Huan listened to what Shen Muzhi said, nodded approvingly, and said, "What Shen Aiqing said is extremely true, and I think so too." β
"I know very little about the things on the rivers and lakes, and it is really an eye-opener to see this Hellfire Temple today."
The joy between Yin Huan's eyebrows and eyes couldn't be suppressed, as if he had entrusted this Hellfire Palace, and Prince Yin's family would be able to die immediately.
But Yin Huan's joy didn't last long, and then Yin Huan frowned and said, "It's just that how to entrust this Hellfire Hall is really a problem. Shen Aiqing, what kind of door do you have? β
Shen Muzhi thought for a moment and replied: "The emperor can rest assured, although the people of this Hellfire Hall did not leave any way to entrust, but, a few days ago, the Hellfire Palace destroyed the Lu clan in Chang'an, and Wechen implored the emperor to give Wechen a month to go to Chang'an to investigate the Lu clan's extermination case, and Wechen wanted to get clues to contact the Hellfire Palace." β
Yin Huan was overjoyed when he heard this, especially when he heard Shen Muzhi say that the Hellfire Hall had only destroyed other people's clans a few days ago, Yin Huan was simply happy, and secretly gritted his teeth in his heart, and the next one to be wiped out was Yin Zhu.
Yin Huan naturally wouldn't doubt Shen Muzhi's ability, since Shen Muzhi, the champion of the Great Zhou, said that he could find clues, Yin Huan believed it. So, Yin Huan said with a straight face: "Shen Aiqing's dedication to me, I feel it. β
Yin Huan thought about it, and even showed some compassion, and said with concern: "It's just that the road to Chang'an is far away, even if the horse doesn't stop, it will take ten days to arrive, and only one month, will it be too embarrassing for Shen Aiqing?" β
Shen Muzhi looked at Yin Huan and said: "The emperor can rest assured, in a month, Wechen will bring the people of the Hellfire Palace to the capital, if it can't be done and the emperor's plan is delayed, Wechen is willing to come to see him." β
Hearing that Shen Muzhi actually swore a poisonous oath, Yin Huan was even more confident now, and hurriedly said kind words to Shen Muzhi: "Where did Shen Aiqing say this, you can go to Chang'an." β
"Xiliang paid tribute to a sweaty BMW before, the journey is a thousand miles a day, Shen Aiqing, I will give you this sweat and blood BMW, you will ride it to Chang'an, this sweaty BMW will definitely wish you a hand."
Shen Muzhi responded and said, "Weichen thanks the emperor for his love, and he will never give up." β
Shen Muzhi secretly thought in his heart that the month when he went to Chang'an to find the Hellfire Palace should be enough for Yin Jiuyue and them to prepare.
The news of Concubine Lian's violent death sent by Yin Huan soon spread to Prince Yin's mansion.
When the other people in Prince Yin's Mansion heard the news, they forgot in an instant, the emperor's concubine was just one less, what did this have to do with them?
Only Yin Jiuyue and Yin Mingtai immediately became alert after hearing the news of Concubine Lian's violent death.
Yin Jiuyue was in Yin Mingtai's room at the moment, discussing this matter with Yin Mingtai.
Yin Jiuyue said in a calm voice: "It seems that this Xiaolian's suspicion is almost certain. β
Yin Mingtai nodded and said, "It's just that I really can't figure it out, since I sent Concubine Lian to go undercover, conceal Concubine Lian's disappearance, and pretend that Concubine Lian is still in the palace, isn't it more beneficial to the emperor?" β
Yin Jiuyue sighed and said, "I can't figure this out either, maybe the reason for this is only known to Concubine Lian and Yin Huan." β
Yin Jiuyue paused, and suddenly said: "Mingtai, I have a hunch that the storm is coming." β
Yin Mingtai held Yin Jiuyue's hand and said, "Ah Yue, then what should we do next?" β
"The emperor wants to attack us, as long as the emperor is still in the sky, the crisis in Prince Yin's palace will not disappear."
Yin Jiuyue smiled bitterly: "Mingtai, I shouldn't say that you are a wooden head. β
"Yes, even we know about it, but my father doesn't want to believe it."
"No, it's not that he doesn't want to believe it, it's that he clearly believes it, but he doesn't want to pierce that layer of window paper."
Yin Mingtai said: "Ah Yue, why don't we go together to persuade the prince and make our thoughts clear?" β
Yin Jiuyue nodded, feeling that there was no other way now, so according to Yin Mingtai's meaning, go and persuade his father, perhaps, his father's mind has changed after this false accusation.
Thinking of this, Yin Jiuyue immediately said: "Mingtai, you're right, we'll go to my father now." β
Yin Jiuyue and Yin Mingtai came to Yin Zhu and Yin Yun's room.
As soon as Yin Jiuyue and Yin Mingtai entered the door, Yin Zhu squinted at the two of them and said, "What's the matter, why are you two free to come to my room today?" In the past two days, I have watched Yue'er run towards Mingtai and your boy's room all day long! β
Yin Jiuyue and Yin Mingtai blushed when they heard this.
Yin Jiuyue said: "Father, what are you talking about, Yue'er is not married yet, what you said is for others to listen, Yue'er's face is gone!" β
Yin Zhu snorted lightly when he heard this, and said, "So, the two of you come to me together at this time, you can't wait, and you want to get married immediately?" β
Yin Yun, who was on the side, listened to Yin Zhu's words, and echoed with a smile: "I think it's a good idea, you two will get married immediately, and I, who is a mother, can be relieved." β
Yin Jiuyue saw that Yin Yun's face was also like this, and couldn't help but hurriedly say: "Mother! Why did you make fun of me with your father! β
After a pause, Yin Jiuyue looked serious and said: "Father, mother, our Yin Mansion is still in dire straits, Yue'er and Mingtai are in such a critical moment, they don't dare to only take care of their children's private affairs and think about getting married." β
Yin Mingtai also said: "Yes, prince, princess, I came with Ah Yue this time to discuss important matters." β
Yin Zhu had a premonition that Yin Jiuyue was going to say something to Yin Mingtai, but he deliberately snorted and said, "You two children, what nonsense, didn't our Yin Mansion just escape from the dire situation!" The emperor also named me the general of the town, and from now on, our Yin Mansion will only be more prosperous. β
When Yin Jiuyue heard Yin Zhu's words, she raised her eyes, looked straight at Yin Zhu, and said, "Father, when you say this, do you believe it yourself?" β
Yin Zhu didn't dare to look directly at his daughter's gaze, turned his face away, and said: "He is the emperor, what else can we do, rest assured, father, I will protect you, even if I fight for my own life, I will protect the family." β
Yin Jiuyue said sadly: "Father, you are too naΓ―ve, do you think that when the time comes, you will exchange your life with Yin Huan, and Yin Huan will really let go of your wife and children, your Yin Mansion, and your Yin family's army?" β
Yin Zhu sighed and said, "Yue'er, don't say it." β
"After all, he is my imperial brother, blood is thicker than water, he is just worried that I will endanger his throne, as long as I reassure him, he will never be so desperate."
Yin Jiuyue snorted coldly and said, "Yue'er doesn't believe that Yin Huan is such a merciful person. β
"However, Yue'er knows that your father is you, if your father replaces ......"
Yin Zhu let out a loud sigh and interrupted Yin Jiuyue's words.
