In the institutional setting of the Great Xia Dynasty, the three most powerful people were the prime minister, the national teacher sacrificial wine, and the taiwei.

The prime minister, also known as the Taishi, is not a one-person official position to assist the imperial power, but a complete set of institutions with the power to open the government, and the prime minister can have his own staff, dominate the military and political power, and occupy a pivotal position in the dynasty. There are a lot of houses in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is why there are too many subordinates to resettle. The National Teacher Sacrificial Wine, also known as the Sacrificial Wine, is mainly responsible for the delivery of the dynasty and the various forces on the mainland, managing the ceremonial department, and supervising the cultivators of the world. And the Taiwei is the master of the imperial military department, but the military power is easily divided by the prime minister.

Among the three, the prime minister has the greatest power, overseeing military affairs, directly responsible to the emperor himself, and can also meddle in many areas of sacrificial wine and Taiwei management, such as finance, such as the military department.

In a side hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion in Suzaku Lane, the first batch of blood guards of the Blood Guard Camp were officially born in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Below Jing Qi, there are a total of twenty-nine people, in addition to the brothers of the original Nine Daomen, there are more than a dozen generals and colonels from the military department.

The Blood Guard Camp was the original secret agency of the Great Xia Dynasty, with a long history, but as the situation changed, sometimes it was strong and sometimes weak. During the period of Emperor Lieyu, there was a rebellion in the south, and the blood guards escorted the emperor all the way south, until he reached Qingtianxia, broke the alliance of the seven clans, and assumed important responsibilities in intelligence, assassination, and guarding.

However, with the dissipation of the war and the passage of time, the Blood Guard Battalion evolved into a formation by the Taishi, which only shouldered the duties of guarding the palace and the Prime Minister's Mansion, and its strength was very limited. Now, the world is in an eventful season, and the Prime Minister's Mansion has reorganized the Blood Guard Battalion, so it naturally has high hopes for this force.

In the main hall of the hall, there is a border map of the Great Xia Dynasty hanging, and the huge weapon racks on the left and right sides are full of all kinds of weapons.

More than 20 men, around a long table, on which is a map of the streets and alleys of Yingdu, in the position of the Taiwei Mansion, there is a big cross.

Xie Liu'an's fingers moved along the streets on the map, and said in a deep voice: "Tonight, Yang Lin has a banquet in the Ceremony Division, to reward the generals of the various departments who are preparing for the Tsing Yi Trial, he will start from Yang's Mansion and go to the Ceremony Division along this road, this is the West Grocery Market, Yang Lin must pass through! ”

This kind of infighting above the court has never seen the light of day, and letting political enemies die quietly is the best result. In Yingdu City before and after the Tsing Yi test, the Great Array of Immortals had already been opened, and cultivators above the realm of life, as long as they made a move, they would definitely be detected by the formation for the first time, and the cultivators of the Apocalypse and Jinshi Realm had jade talismans in their bodies, so the assassins were ordinary soldiers, and it was easier to hide.

Three years ago, Jing Qi would disdain to participate in this kind of battle between the courts, but the situation in the world is changing, and no one can choose, when Sendai said goodbye, Xu Feng was right, in the future world, I am afraid that there will be no place for the rivers and lakes, and I want to leave a way back for the brothers.

During his few years in Sendai, he witnessed that in order to maintain the status of Sendai's trading state, he had been planning for several years, but in an instant, he was destroyed by the new county government into a deserted city. Jing Qi finally realized that a bureaucrat with a lot of power would be a hundred or a thousand times worse than ordinary people if he did evil, and Yang Lin, a powerful traitor in the army, would have a reason to die.

Those few men who came from the military department were all selected by thousands of good hands, served as battlefield scouts for many years, and were born and died in northern Xinjiang.

They saw that Jing Qi was so young and was appointed as the commander of the Blood Guard Battalion, and they were a little dissatisfied in their hearts, but they didn't dare to disobey the military orders of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In the first assassination mission of the Blood Guard Battalion, a few of them were silent, just watching from the wall, and they had the heart to see how these men who gathered in the roaring rivers and lakes planned.

Unexpectedly, Xie Datou was the first to put forward the bill, which was perfect, and the captains showed a look of affirmation in their eyes.

General Cheng Zhishu, who was executed in Mojiao by the Taiwei Mansion for violating the "Ping Gong Order" because the military generals privately befriended the state and county officials, was the former commander of these school captains.

Thousands of miles in the northern frontier, they have never forgotten the feelings of living and dying together in the blood of the enemy, and thousands of troops and horses. The desire to avenge the leader has been deeply rooted in their blood, and they have received the news that they want to reorganize the blood guard camp, so they did not start in advance, and now the opportunity has finally come.

Zheng Scar's rough palm slapped on the table, and the urn said angrily: "Yingdu is in the middle of the city, assassinating a high-ranking official of the imperial court, this is damn good, it's a bit interesting! haha......"

These rough men of the Nine Knife Gate originally came from all over the world, and they have always been the masters of the Wuthering Mountains and Forests. Since ancient times, officials and thieves have not been separated, even under Jing Qi's Nine Swords Sect, they can't stop the brothers' excitement about assassinating the imperial captain.

Everyone shouted loudly, mixed with foul language, and they took the initiative to ask for help.

Seeing this situation, the captains from the military department will smile, which is the same as the masters in the ministry.

Although Gao Tianyi is young, he is extremely sophisticated, when he was in the Nine Knife Gate, he was mainly responsible for the work after the break, and he was very thoughtful and thoughtful, and he still remained calm in the excitement of everyone.

"I'm afraid I don't need so many people. Gao Tianyi said in a deep voice.

As soon as these words came out, the hall was quiet for a moment, and the captains of the military department looked at each other, and a trace of uneasiness rose on their faces.

If it is to assassinate ordinary officials, imperial historians, captains, or even generals, dozens or hundreds of people are enough, but this time the target is the imperial lieutenant who commands the military headquarters of the dynasty.

Every time Yang Lin travels, he will send soldiers to secretly investigate along the way in advance, and there are hundreds of guards who follow, and they are all good hands in a million, although Yang Lin himself is old, but he is also a wrestler who can open a hundred denier bows.

In the eyes of these lieutenant colonels who know Yang Lin's style well, all the blood guards should do their best, and then mobilize most of the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion to respond as backup, otherwise this matter will be difficult to complete.

And listening to the meaning of the words of the little brother in front of him, even these people in the hall are considered to be many.

General Cheng's revenge for the severed head, how could he be so childish in this battle! Several lieutenants from the military headquarters were already dissatisfied with Jing Qi, and the uneasiness on their faces finally turned into actual actions.

One of them, a middle-aged lieutenant with a long beard, stood up from his seat with a thud, and with a snap in the strong style unique to the military department, slapped his knife on the long case, and looked around at everyone until the excited shouting was completely extinguished, and then said: "I will not agree to this operation without the dead soldiers in the 300 army." ”

Everyone in the Nine Swords Gate was surprised, and many men had a clear light in their eyes, staring at the military academy that was talking with an unkind expression.

Scar glanced at the saber on the black table, and mocked: "The rules on the rivers and lakes, it takes a hard time to shoot the knife." Murder, listen to our seventh master, you are not qualified to disagree. ”

With a snap, Zheng Scar, who made the knife, slapped his own Pu knife on the long case, stepped on the chair with one foot, and his rugged body crossed the long case, and confronted the sergeant.

"Who are you scaring with a broken knife, Lao Tzu is going to compete with you now, you have the right to agree to this, come on!"

The captain was agitated by the scar, but he didn't know what to do, not because he was afraid of the provocation in front of him, but according to military discipline, it was indeed the commander of the Blood Guard Battalion who had the final say, and Jing Qi had not spoken at this time.

Another soldier sitting next to the long-bearded captain stood up, this person was slender and long, his face was slightly pale, and in addition to the wind and frost of the army, there was also a trace of soft temperament.

Stretching out his palm, which is much larger than ordinary people, he pressed it lightly on the shoulder of the bearded military academy, took the knife on the table casually, turned to Jing Qi and said: "In Xiaguanbai, from Jiyun Town, the six towns in northern Xinjiang, General Cheng, who was harmed by the Taiwei Mansion, was the commander of our ranks, Captain Huang was eager for revenge, and he behaved out of style, please forgive the commander." ”

Jing Qi nodded, looking at Zheng Scar, Zheng Scar snorted coldly at the officer, and sat back down.

"Since everyone is a member of the Blood Guard Battalion, of course they can express their opinions, but I agree with Brother Tianyi's opinion, there is no need for many people in this matter, I, Brother Scar, Lao Wu, Big Head, if Brother Guan is interested, it will be counted as one, and the five of us are enough. ”

Jing Qi's words, the hall was silent, and the leader's opinion represented the final plan.

In the silence, Guan Bai said coldly: "Commander Jing is sure!"

"Sure. ”

"What if the mission fails!" Guan Bai's face turned even paler.

Jing Qi originally didn't plan to answer this question, but at this time, it was no longer the Nine Great Gates, so he had to take care of the feelings of these dynasty soldiers, and said indifferently: "If the mission fails, you will be the commander." ”

The men of the Nine Swords Sect had a relaxed look on their faces, especially the few people who were selected by Jing Qi, they were simply elated, and they took Jing Qi's words as a joke at all.

How could it fail!
