The emperor's face was pale, his hands were clenched into fists, his voice was like ice water in winter, and he said coldly in a low voice, "Go on."

The dark guard had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to speak.

"And when the Jianghu people attacked the county lord, a team of people suddenly killed the county lord halfway and saved the county lord, so ...... They have also taken away those Jianghu people."

The emperor's face darkened even after hearing this, and he was shocked and angry in his heart, shocked by Shen Ling's ability, and angry that his subordinates were not doing things well.

"What a shit!" The emperor took the case and gritted his teeth and said, "I have sent so many people to assist them, as well as Concubine Mingyue and Lin Fengzhi in the temple to do internal responses, all of them are like this, they can't even kill Shen Ling."

After hearing this, the dark guard knelt down with a thud, "The Holy One is angry."

Looking at his subordinates who could only shout anger, the emperor's chest rose even more, and his anger was very loud.

Although Shen Ling already knew that he was going to kill her, after all, this matter had not completely come to the fore, no matter what, he couldn't let those useless people in the rivers and lakes tell him that he was going to kill Shen Ling.

Otherwise, if this matter spreads and is heard by the people and ministers, his prestige as an emperor will probably drop a lot, and it will also affect his image outside.

After thinking of this, a cold light flashed in the emperor's eyes, and his voice was fierce with a shuddering killing intent.

"Go, gather your men, and be sure to kill all the captives."

The secret guard still didn't dare to come out and knelt on the ground, and after hearing the emperor's order, he trembled in response.

"Yes, my subordinates will arrange it."

After the dark guard's voice fell, he respectfully retired and left.

At night, the moon hides behind the clouds, and the stars are hidden, without the brilliance of the stars and moon, and the night is even darker.

In that lightless corner, it seems that there is a huge black beast hidden, which can jump out at any time and devour people.

Commander Gu is still in the Fuyuan Inn, he has tied up a lot of Jianghu people, and it is not good to take these people on the road together, so he can only deal with them here in the inn first.

In the firewood room of the inn, all the people in the rivers and lakes were locked up here, some people were silent, and some people complained.

"We really don't know anything, you're going to let us go."

"Do you know who my master is? If he had known that you had tied me up, there would be no good fruit for you to eat."

"I just want to make some bounty money, there's no need to lock me up here for interrogation!"

Commander Gu didn't say a word, he had already interrogated these people in the rivers and lakes, but they were all ambiguous in their speech, and they didn't tell Commander Gu useful information at all.

And Commander-in-Chief Gu always felt that with the emperor's character, he would not just let go of these failed assassinations, and the emperor would definitely have other actions after that, he just needed to wait patiently.

After arranging some secret guards in the dark outside the firewood room, General Leader Gu himself hid.

After three watches at night, a group of black-clothed people appeared in the backyard of the inn, all of them were wearing black night clothes, in this dark night, if you don't look carefully, you can't find it at all.

However, as the commander of the dark guard, Gu Commander's night clothes have long become his regular clothes, and he can see at a glance those who are sneaking in the night.

After the team all stood at the door of the firewood room, General Gu put his hand in his mouth and whistled.

In an instant, all the guards flew out of the shadows and attacked the group of men in black.

An exclamation came from among the men in black, "Not good! It's been discovered!"

A man in black at the head frowned when he heard this.

Looking at his somewhat flustered subordinates, the leader of the men in black shouted loudly, "Don't forget the purpose of our coming here this time!"

"Everyone avoid fighting with them, and kill those Jianghu people first!"

With the leader's words, the black-clothed men who were originally a little flustered quickly calmed down, drew their swords one after another, and attacked the Jianghu people locked in the firewood room.

The people in the rivers and lakes are tied up all over their bodies at the moment, and they are hit again

With Shen Ling's soft incense, even if there is a body of martial arts, it can't be displayed at the moment.

"Help! I don't want to die yet!"

"Come on, someone, someone is going to kill someone!"

"I'll say anything, come and save me."...

These Jianghu people didn't think that it was the hands of General Leader Gu, after all, if General Leader Gu really wanted to kill them, he would have killed them as soon as they were caught, and there was no need to wait until now.

Commander Gu's people also dispatched and attacked the man in black one after another, but they did not stop the man in black from killing the people in the rivers and lakes.

A quarter of an hour later, many corpses appeared in the backyard and firewood room of the inn, but most of them were from Jianghu.

Only a few people in the rivers and lakes who were as timid as a rat and kept their mouths silent were rescued by General Commander Gu.

After the remaining black-clothed people were defeated and withdrew, Commander Gu stood in front of the remnants of the Jianghu people with a sword that was still dripping blood.

"These people are here to kill you, but even then do you have to hide the news from your employer?"

These Jianghu people are not stupid, and when they saw that the killer was coming at them, they immediately understood that this was the employer who wanted to kill them.

Seeing that the people in the rivers and lakes didn't speak, Commander Gu asked, "How many people have received the reward order?"

This time, the Jianghu people did not hide it anymore, and one of them replied: "The reward of the bounty order is very rich, it can be said that almost half of the Jianghu people have accepted this reward."

Commander Gu frowned after hearing this, because although there were many people in the rivers and lakes surrounding the mountain, they did not reach half the number of people.

"What about the rest?"

Another person replied, "The employer was worried that our assassination attempt would fail, and that we didn't watch Shen Ling and let her escape, so they arranged ambushes at various places along the road that left Beijing."

"Boatmen, fellows, grooms...... There is only what you can't think of, and there is nothing that can't be disguised."

"And we have an agreement that before we meet Shen Ling, we must cooperate with each other, and after meeting Shen Ling, we will rely on our own abilities."

General Gu's face changed dramatically after hearing this, these people in the rivers and lakes have their own skills, and if they really cooperate together, it will be very tricky.

Besides, if the emperor wants to kill Shen Ling, he will definitely not only send people from the rivers and lakes to assassinate Shen Ling, but there must be the emperor's own people, hiding in a dark corner, waiting to give Shen Ling a fatal blow.

After interrogating the Jianghu people's next plan and the ability to take orders, Commander Gu immediately led people to chase Shen Ling.

On the other side, Shen Ling and the others had already changed ships under the arrangement of Zeng Weimin, intending to escape by water.

While Shen Ling was sleeping, a short man quietly walked into Shen Ling's room.

The visitor was very careful, her steps were very light, she could hardly hear any sound, and her two eyes were always staring at Shen Ling, as soon as Shen Ling made a move, she would flee immediately.
