Cataclysm!?

"Two adults," Xu Zun stood up and asked, "What happened?" Genmon ...... Really already acted? ”

"Speaking of which...... What a shame! Cai Kun shook his head helplessly and said to Xu Zun, "Xu Zun, Shangyuan City, we have already found the clue, but it's a pity...... We're looking in the wrong direction! ”

"Huh? What? Xu Zun was even more confused and surprised, "Lord Cai, what's wrong?" ”

"At noon the day before yesterday," Cai Kun said with a twitching cheek and an embarrassed face, "there was an unprecedented large-scale assassination tragedy in Xuanmiao City, and a total of seventeen people, including the princes and ministers, all died tragically at the hands of the assassins......"

"What !?"

Xu Zun only felt his head buzz, before that, he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at all.

"Xue Guihua, Duke of Liangguo, Lang Yingrang of the Ministry of Works, Li Ren, Duke of Lushan, Han Zhang, Assassin of Songzhou, Cabinet Minister Lian Gelao, Dali Temple Secretary Liu Jin......" Lin Chaofeng stood up and said heavily, "There are also the Shengdu Transit Envoy, General Yu Linwei, the Prince Taibao, the Ministry of Officials, the Master of the Ministry of Works, the Prison Envoy of the Criminal Department, the Supervision of the Imperial History, and even the Imperial Physician Xu Chi was not spared......"

As he spoke, Lin Chaofeng's body shook and staggered, and he had to hold on to the incense burner to support his body.

OMG......

As if struck by lightning, Xu Zun asked incredulously:

"This ...... Is this impossible? These people are all princes and nobles, they all have bodyguards around them, and it is daytime, how can such a large-scale assassination be possible? ”

"Xu Zun......" Cai Kun said tremblingly, "After you broke the Qinglan Temple, didn't you find that the Xuanmen had cultivated many beautiful assassins?"

"At that time, we walked into a misunderstanding, we only thought that those female assassins entered the palace through Qinglanguan and Changping Marquis, so we only checked the palace, but ...... Still...... Alas......"

"Huh?" Xu Zun was shocked again, "This ...... To put it this way...... Those female assassins were not sent to the palace at all, they were all ...... All sent to these ministers' palaces? ”

"Yes!" Cai Kun said with difficulty, "At noon the day before yesterday, a tragedy broke out, and some assassins were killed on the spot, only to find out that the assassins were actually the concubines of these princes and ministers!"

"They have been dormant for many years, and they are delicate and beautiful, and they are defenseless......"

"Then ......," Xu Zun hurriedly asked, "have all the assassins been caught?" ”

"No," Cai Kun shook his head, "only a few were killed on the spot, and two of them committed suicide on the spot because they couldn't escape."

"The rest all escaped without a trace!

"That day......" Cai Kun said helplessly, "The incident happened suddenly, and the city gate did not receive any news, so most of them must have fled from the city, right?" ”

"Huh......" Xu Zun staggered two steps and touched the chair behind him.

Given him a thousand more chances, he couldn't have imagined that those female assassins who had been trained would be used for this purpose.

"The stakes are very high," Cai Kun said, "Once the news comes out, I am afraid of panic, so the Queen Mother decided to temporarily block the news and strictly investigate the case."

"Now, I can't see anything outside, but the palace and those ministers' homes have already been in chaos!"

"Wait...... Wait......" Xu Zun suddenly wondered and said, "This seems to be ...... Doesn't make sense, right? Xuanmen rebelled against the party and tried his best to prepare for several years, just to assassinate my Daxuan, these princes and ministers?

Lin ...... Lord Lin," he asked Lin Chaofeng, "where did you get the term 'Heavenly Tribulation'?" ”

"The Heavenly Tribulation is the most difficult calamity in the Xuanmen," Lin Chaofeng said, "Only those who go against the heavens will suffer the Heavenly Tribulation, they are implying that my Great Xuan is against the way of heaven!" ”

Lin Chaofeng said vaguely and did not answer Xu Zun's question.

But Xu Zun has already guessed a rough idea, since the Xuanmen has become a threat, presumably the internal guards have already planted undercover agents in the Xuanmen, right?

"Xu Zun......" Cai Kun frowned, as if he had aged many years overnight, "Xuanmen's attack this time, the purpose is very clear, although it can't be fatal immediately, but it's almost the same!" ”

"Oh?" Xu Zun was even more puzzled, "Why?" I am full of talents, and if I kill these princes and ministers, can I still touch the foundation of my Great Xuan? ”

"Hehe......" After Xu Zun finished speaking, Lin Chaofeng suddenly laughed, but the laughter was obviously full of bitterness.

"It's not as simple as you think," Cai Kun said, "First of all, you may not know that among the seventeen people who were assassinated, none of them were from the Inner Guard Mansion!"

"There is no Neiwei Mansion, no Divine Capture Division, no Wanfu Palace, and no people from the Lin family......"

Oh?

Hearing these words, Xu Zun seemed to understand something.

Wanfu Palace is the Queen Mother's bedroom, the Queen Mother's surname is Lin, the Lin family is the Queen Mother's own family, and the Internal Guard Mansion and the Divine Capture Division are the Queen Mother's descendants.

"But...... ...... exhaled," Cai Kun exhaled heavily and continued, "Among the seventeen people, it seems that only the imperial physician Xu Chi and the Queen Mother did not have a holiday, while the others ......"

Depend on......

It's poisonous!

Xu Zun finally understood that the reason why Xuanmen assassinated these seventeen people was to provoke Daxuan's internal contradictions and take the opportunity to blame the Queen Mother.

Xu Zun already knew before that the current court is mainly divided into three factions, one is the empress dowager's real power faction, and it is also the current ruling faction;

One is the imperial faction headed by the cabinet, which loyally supports the emperor and always wants to let the emperor govern pro-government.

The other is the emperor's uncle's faction, these people are all brothers and relatives of the emperor, they wander between the two factions, and neither side can be offended.

Now, the seventeen people who were assassinated are all people from the other two factions, so it will inevitably attract people's suspicions, will the assassination of these seventeen people be done by the Queen Mother?

Terrible!

That's amazing!

Xu Zun was secretly shocked, it seems that this Xuanmen is really not an idle person.

Assassination is not terrible, the most terrible thing is the human heart!

"In addition......," Lin Chaofeng added, "this assassination not only divided the forces of the DPRK and China, but also aroused the suspicion of the Queen Mother."

"The Queen Mother would think like this...... Lin Chaofeng said nervously, "Why, some ministers were assassinated, while others were fine?" Those ministers who are fine, will they ...... Knowing that there was this assassination? ”

I click......

Xu Zun gasped, Lin Chaofeng's words were really scary, according to the meaning of the Queen Mother, could it be that the surviving ministers were also ...... Also......

"A heavenly tribulation, it's really a stroke of genius!" Lin Chaofeng said hatefully, "These Xuanmen rebels against the party, they really deserve a thousand cuts!" ”

"Big ...... Your Excellency......" Xu Zun swallowed his saliva and asked, "Since the assassination has happened, what ...... So...... I ......"

"The Queen Mother was originally going to summon you," Lin Chaofeng returned to normal and said, "But now this situation is naturally impossible!"

"Xu Tixing, what you did in Yonghui, the Queen Mother already knows," he turned around, looked at Xu Zun and said, "Originally, the Queen Mother wanted you to finish that matter, but now it seems that there are other arrangements for you!" ”

"I don't know ......," Xu Zun hurriedly asked, "What are the arrangements?" ”

"Hehehe," Lin Chaofeng smiled slightly, "I'll give you an account!" For so many years, no one has ever caught the Dao Venerable of Xuanmen!

"So...... Your next mission is to destroy the Xuanmen! Lin Chaofeng said, "As long as the Xuanmen is eliminated, this assassination incident can be clarified, and the Queen Mother can solve the problem and solve the danger of my great Xuan!" ”

"Hmm...... My lord......" Xu Zun pondered for a few seconds, and then said to Lin Chaofeng, "It is naturally incumbent on Xu Zun to eliminate the Xuanmen rebel party.

"But...... Xu has three conditions, which need to be agreed by adults! ”

"Wow?" Lin Chaofeng looked at Xu Zun and said in surprise, "You actually ...... Tell me about the conditions? ”

"Xu Zun......" Cai Kun reprimanded, "Don't make mistakes!" ”

"Don't!" Lin Chaofeng waved his hand and asked, "Xu Zun, say, what conditions do you want?" ”

"First," Xu Zun said, "give me my old mansion!"

"Second, don't touch the Yuanzhou woman Timur Ani under me, because if you want to destroy Xuanmen, this woman will be of great use."

"Old mansion? Woman? ”

Lin Chaofeng looked at Cai Kun.

Cai Kun hurriedly explained Xu Zun's life experience and Ani's situation.

"Oh...... What conditions should I have," Lin Chaofeng said with a smile, "You can meet these two conditions, but the premise is that you really have two brushes, otherwise......

"By the way," he asked, remembering something, "what about the third condition?" ”

"The third condition is to give me the greatest authority to investigate," Xu Zun said, "even those princes and ministers must cooperate with me unconditionally, otherwise, no one will be able to solve this case!" ”

"Well...... Ay? Lin Chaofeng heard that the words were wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Xu Zun, what do you mean by that?" What do you do investigating the princely ministers? Don't...... Do you think there are ghosts? ”

"My lord," Xu Zun said solemnly, "I think that this assassination is just the beginning, and the real catastrophe has not yet ...... come."
