"A specific assassination plan has been drawn up, and the time for the operation is scheduled for the evening of two days. ”

Seeing that the matter was settled, Xiao Yuyan began to discuss the matter with Meng Jing.

Meng Jing pondered for a while, the other party had a plan, so in addition to inviting him as the "Sword Demon Crazy Nine", there must be a back move.

Meng Jing wanted to say something more, and said tentatively:

"There are thousands of guards in the Xinwang Mansion, plus the masters of Zhonglang General, it may be difficult to succeed with just one person and one sword. ”

Cultivators are certainly powerful, but in the face of crowd tactics, their spiritual power will be exhausted, and the final result will be to flee at least and die from exhaustion.

Moreover, there are not only a thousand guards in the Xinwang Mansion, but also Xue Jianxiao's Zhonglang General, Xue Jianxiao's own strength is unfathomable, and his Zhonglang General is even more Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

It is almost impossible to hide from so many people to complete the assassination.

Xiao Yuyan understood these truths, but she was obviously not worried about them, and her expression was calm, as if she had won the battle.

"Seniors relax, we have already considered these hidden dangers, and when two days later, someone will transfer the Zhonglang general and guards in the palace's dormitory, and the seniors only need to deal with Xue Jianxiao, and then take off the head of King Xin. ”

Meng Jing savored these words carefully, someone can only open the guards and Zhonglang generals, which means that there are their internal responses in the palace, and the official position is not low, and they can mobilize the guards.

No wonder Xiao Yuyan is so confident, it turns out that there are meticulous works placed by them in the mansion, and they can easily remove the defense of the mansion.

Who will this work be?

"Can the girl change the identity of the palace guard, so that it is convenient to cooperate with him? ”

"This person's identity is secret, and it is really inconvenient to disclose. ”

Xiao Yuyan didn't want to say more, and wanted to say a few perfunctory words, but she was afraid that Meng Jing would be displeased, so she comforted:

"This is definitely not distrusting the seniors, it's just that it is inconvenient to reveal, in order to show our sincerity, the 400,000 taels of silver, the seniors can take it away now, this is a silver ticket. ”

As she spoke, she took out a stack of silver tickets and handed them over.

Meng Jing was overjoyed and calmly accepted the silver ticket.

Originally, she wanted to go through another effort to cheat the silver, but now she took the initiative to send the silver, and it was really effortless.

Xiao Yuyan didn't know what Meng Jing was thinking, she paid off the reward in advance, and she also had a plan.

This can indeed show sincerity and enhance the trust of both parties, and generally qualified masters attach great importance to reputation, and such a thing as breaking the contract will never be done.

It was precisely after thinking of these that Xiao Yuyan dared to deliver the reward in advance.

However, Meng Jing is not the kind of master with qualifications, he is just a prince who has no money to raise soldiers, so he will not care about the reputation of this fabricated "Sword Demon Crazy Nine" out of thin air.

took the silver, Meng Jing didn't ask any more questions, and left after agreeing with Xiao Yuyan.

The next day, early in the morning, Meng Jing summoned Guo Dongtai and Xue Jianxiao.

He first handed Guo Dongtai a silver ticket of 200,000 taels and instructed:

"One hundred thousand taels are used to fill the vacancy of the ordnance, and the remaining one hundred thousand taels are to be moved to make up for the arrears owed to the officials, and the surplus is put into the state treasury. ”

Meng Jing has not been in power for a long time, his foundation is still shallow, he urgently needs to cultivate henchmen, in addition to holding the military power, the officials of Pingzhou City must also be co-opted, although making up for the Yulu can not make these people immediately willing to serve, but at least they can win some favor.

Guo Dongtai looked shocked when he saw the silver ticket, he only got 200,000 taels in one night, this silver is too easy to earn, could it be that it fell from the sky?

Thinking of the black market bounty mentioned yesterday, my heart suddenly felt cold.

Could it be that the prince really went to the black market to negotiate business with the people who wanted to kill him, and asked for the bounty back?

If this matter is put on other people, Guo Dongtai will never believe it, but when it comes to Meng Jing, it may be said, this master's supernatural powers, Guo Dongtai has seen it several times.

Although Guo Dongtai had endless doubts in his heart, he held back, answered with his head and went to do something.

Years of experience in officialdom have taught him a truth, treat your boss, never ask what you shouldn't ask, and pretend to be confused when appropriate.

The source of the silver was not for him to ask, and the matter was completely rotten in his stomach.

Seeing Guo Dongtai away, Meng Jing and Xue Jianxiao glanced at each other.

"I heard Master Guo say that Lord Xue is tracking down the black market bounty, do you have any gains?"

"Lord Wang, the lower officials did find some eyebrows, the person who offered a reward for the prince's head on the black market was Xiao Yuyan, the right envoy of the Dongyi Sea Shark Sect, and the other people involved were all Sea Shark Sect disciples. ”

Meng Jing has heard a little about the Sea Shark Sect, the Sea Shark Sect is the state religion of the Dongyi countries, using the most revered shark in Dongyi as the totem of the sect, there are many followers in the Dongyi Sect, and in terms of strength, it is second only to the Buddhism and Taoism of the Central Plains.

In recent years, the Sea Shark Sect began to preach in the coastal states of the Central Plains, attracting a wide range of believers and growing rapidly. This move aroused the alarm of the countries of the Central Plains, and various countries successively issued regulations prohibiting the sea sharks from teaching people to preach in the Central Plains, and at the same time calling them evil cults.

The Sea Shark Sect appeared in Pingzhou, Meng Jing was not puzzled, Pingzhou was already on the coast, and it was only separated from Dongyi by a strait, and the disciples of the Sea Shark Sect could easily go to Pingzhou.

Xue Jianxiao continued:

"There was a new development last night, someone took the reward, this person is likely to be the Sword Demon Crazy Nine who has been hiding in Pingzhou, and his cultivation is unfathomable. ”

Meng Jing was a little amazed at the efficiency of General Zhonglang, he only got the reward last night, and Xue Jianxiao came to report this matter this morning, this is too fast, there is likely to be a secret agent of General Zhonglang under the ring last night.

"Sword Demon Crazy Nine is certainly powerful, but Lord Xue is not an ordinary person, why should you be afraid of that Sword Demon Crazy Nine?"

Meng Jing said this to try Xue Jianxiao's cultivation, he didn't know much about Xue Jianxiao, he only knew that he was the same as the head of the Huigan Dao, he was a master of the Sword Forging Sect, and he didn't know anything about his cultivation.

"Sword Demon Crazy Nine once killed nine monks with one sword, which is far beyond the reach of the lower officials, if he comes to assassinate the prince, no one in the palace can fight with him. ”

Meng Jing saw Xue Jianxiao's serious expression, and there was a little melancholy between his eyebrows, it didn't seem like he was lying, then, his strength should still be a gap with the Five Vortex Realm.

"Does Lord Xue have a way to deal with it?"

"There are many people and horses in the house, they can be besieged and attacked, and it is still possible to force back the sword demon mad nine, the prince does not need to be frightened, the lower officials have already sent additional personnel near your dormitory to guard against death. ”

Meng Jing wasn't worried about this matter in his heart, anyway, he was the Sword Demon Crazy Nine, no matter how stupid he was, he would not do anything stupid to assassinate himself.

"There's Lord Lao Xue," Meng Jing smiled, "This king has two more things to trouble you." ”

"Lord Wang, please speak. ”

Xue Jianxiao agreed very simply, he was assigned by Emperor Jin and obeyed Meng Jing's dispatch with full authority.

Meng Jing took out a silver ticket, which was one of the silver tickets given by Xiao Yuyan last night.

The first thing is to help the king find out the origin of this silver ticket, and all the records must be checked. ”

Meng Jing and the Sea Shark Sect have no intersection at all, there is no blood feud, and the other party must be instructed to kill him.

And this silver ticket is the key to finding out the people behind the scenes, the silver tickets of the Jin Kingdom are all issued by Qian Zhuang, Meng Jing wants to find out the origin of the silver reward, and then find out the forces behind him who want to put him to death.

"The second thing is to check the details of the guards in the palace for this king, especially the officers, in case there are spies from the Sea Shark Sect from getting involved. ”

That hidden in the dark is always a disaster, this unknown thing is what Meng Jing is most worried about, he wants to find out who this fine work is, and after figuring out his identity, he can monitor and control it.

"The prince is very thoughtful. ”

Xue Jian smiled and bowed away.
