Chapter 114: The Summer and Winter of Betrayal
Xia Dong, as Xia Jiang's proud disciple, is by no means an easy person to deal with, but as long as he is a human, he will inevitably have weaknesses.
Yang Yanhan took out a bracelet at this time and said to Xia Dong: "Back then, Ningguo Marquis Xie Yu brought Nie Feng's corpse back, I don't know if there is anything on that corpse?"
"What's that?"
Faced with Xia Dong's question, Yang Yanhan did not answer, but smiled lightly, and then took out a bracelet from his sleeve pocket. The torus was also a little black and blurry, but the Red Flame Army's unique twin cloud flame patterns, as well as the name that surrounded them by the flame patterns, could still be recognized.
Each Red Flame Army's bracelet is engraved with each person's own name, and once killed, even if the body is damaged, the bones can be identified through the bracelet. Back then, Xia Dong had questioned this question, but he was confused by Xie Yu's anxiety about the battle situation.
It's just that Xia Dong saw this bracelet, but he didn't choose to believe Yang Yanhan directly, but glared at Yang Yanhan and asked: "With the strength of Jiang Zuomeng, if you want to imitate such a bracelet, I'm afraid it's not a difficult thing!"
Yang Yanhan nodded and said with a smile: "This is natural, but it is not so easy to imitate a living person."
"What? He really didn't die! Why, why not just bring him to me? ”
Looking at the excited Xia Dong, Yang Yanhan said lightly: "It's just that although he is not dead, once he is discovered, not only him, but even Lord Xia Dong must die."
Xia Dong sneered at this time, and no longer looked at the Red Flame Army bracelet in Yang Yanhan's hand, but said to Yang Yanhan: "No matter how clever you are, I will not be confused by you, after all, the letter back then was written by my husband Nie Feng, how can it be fake?"
Yang Yanhan said with a smile: "Since the bracelet can be faked, why can't it be faked with just a letter?" If you are willing to gamble, please go to Langya Pavilion on the Lantern Festival. ”
"Langya Pavilion? Sure enough, if you want to intervene in the court situation, it is something that has been planned a long time ago, and it seems that you have long wanted to support King Yu? ”
Yang Yanhan just smiled at this time and said: "Lord Xia Dong has seen Nie Feng, I must be able to understand more things, in fact, if some people are not still useful, I will let Lord Xia Dong you leave earlier......"
After Yang Yanhan finished speaking, he and Li Gang turned around and walked down the mountain, his steps were not fast, but on the rugged mountain road, it gave people a very smooth feeling.
"The general's reputation for a hundred battles has been ruined. To the river beam, turn back thousands of miles, the old man is extinct. The wind is cold in the west, and the seats are full of clothes like snow. But it is false and the tragic song is not thorough. The bird still knows that it is like a hate, and it is expected that it will cry tears and blood. Who cries, who laughs? ”
Yang Yanhan's long chant lingered in the mountains, and Xia Dong stood in front of the tomb in a daze, and after a long time, he came back to his senses and took a deep look at the tombstone.
After the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, lanterns began to be hung up in various parts of the capital to prepare for the Lantern Festival. The palace is no exception, up to the queen, down to the concubine, each palace and each courtyard have their own strange ideas, competing to make new and ingenious lanterns, in order to prepare for the emperor on the fifteenth day to enjoy and win, won praise.
However, although almost all of them have been immersed in joy, in Jinling City, there are constantly things that challenge Emperor Liang's nerves.
From the internal supervisor of the palace, to the errand official of Jingzhao Mansion who handled the case, and then to the family of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty. These days, people have been constantly attacked by mysterious masters.
I don't know why? The master who attacked the inner prison of the imperial palace always had the purpose of killing the other party, but the master who attacked the important ministers of the court was not only killing people, but also robbing money. After all, at the end of the year, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military families were really rich in money.
The great commander of Meng Zhimeng, who was recuperating at home, thought that Emperor Liang would be angry with him, but it was very strange that although Emperor Liang was very angry, he rarely ignored Meng Zhi.
At this time, Xia Dong was already single-handed, heading towards Langya Pavilion. The reason is very simple, Emperor Liang knows that behind such a big case, it must be very complicated, and it is really difficult for Meng Zhi to deal with it by a person who does not know how to handle any cases.
In addition, although the palace eunuchs have been killed repeatedly, they still have to be in the imperial city, but there is no precedent for them to be successful.
Facing Emperor Liang, who was furious every day, Xia Jiang, the head of the Xuanjing Division, was not having a good time.
Yes, when Xia Dong proposed to go to Langya Pavilion to try her luck, Xia Jiang thought about it, and gave Xia Dong a limit of 30,000 taels to teach her to go back quickly.
It's just that Xia Jiang didn't know that Xia Dong was gone, and after he came back, it was no longer the Xia Dong he used to be.
The day before the Lantern Festival, Yang Yanhan received another news, the envoy of Da Chu was actually ready, and as soon as the Lantern Festival passed, he was going to start setting off for Jinling.
After Yang Yanhan got the news, he suddenly smiled and said to Feiliu: "Feiliu, go out with me at night, okay?"
"Good!" Feiliu's face always has a child-like smile, pure and free of impurities.
Since coming to the Ningguo Marquis Mansion, on the surface, Zhuo Dingfeng has been enjoying the joy of family every day, visiting his half son, Xiao Jingrui. But in fact, every night, he is the urging Yama of those palace eunuchs who go out to do errands.
Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, Zhuo Dingfeng and Zhuo Qingyao have just changed their outfits and quietly left the Marquis of Ningguo's mansion. Walk through a secluded alley and rush in the direction of the Royal Palace.
"Ding......
The abrupt sound of the piano broke the silence of the night, this alley is remote enough, Xie Yu has been in charge of the patrol camp for so many years, and he is naturally familiar with the streets in Jinling City. Moreover, no matter what happens, there will be no patrol battalion to probe here.
As the sound of the piano became denser and denser, Zhuo Dingfeng sideways in front of Zhuo Qingyao, and said loudly: "Which friend from the rivers and lakes came here late at night, please report your name?"
In the depths of the alley, two white figures, one tall and one short, gradually emerged from the darkness. A black and white mask, coupled with a dark mask, all indicate the identity of the two.
"The person in the net, the sword wind, then this qin sound, I think it is the qin sorrow. I don't know what the three masters of Skynet are coming, what's the matter? ”
Yang Yanhan's hoarse voice at this time suddenly came out with a weird laugh: "Tianquan Sword Zhuo Dingfeng actually assassinated the palace inner prisoner, if this matter is spread out, I don't know which one of Tianquan Villa and Ningguohou Mansion can escape?"
Looking at Zhuo Dingfeng and Zhuo Qingyao, who held the long sword in their hands more and more steadily, Yang Yanhan suddenly smiled and continued to speak: "Why, if you want to do it, with your martial arts, I'm afraid that your only living son, Zhuo Qingyao, will also be buried with you, it's really pitiful!"
