When Zifeng and the guards returned to Liufu, the sky was getting brighter, and in the courtyard, Liu Qingyun was sitting alone under the porch.

The guards clasped their fists and shouted, "Miss." ”

Zi Feng didn't need to ask to know that Liu Qingyun was waiting for him, so he walked straight forward.

"Why don't you rest?" Although I knowingly ask, sometimes the best way to hide my heart is to play stupid.

Liu Qingyun looked at him expressionlessly and asked, "Are you okay?" The voice was as light as autumn water.

Zi Feng shook his head, "This person has excellent light skills, I have been chasing him out for more than thirty miles, and I have a fight with him, his magic weapon seems to be inconspicuous, but he is not a vegetarian, I was negligent, and he took advantage of a loophole and escaped."

Liu Qingyun said: "This person looks very young, his skills are insufficient, the energy of the magic weapon is not strong enough, and he actually dares to attack at night, it is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, fortunately he escaped quickly......"

Zi Feng looked at her somewhat dark circles and asked, "Are you worried about the assassin coming again?" “

Liu Qingyun turned her head to look at a pool of water in the courtyard and said, "No, I just can't sleep." “

“…… What about Master? ”

Liu Qingyun snorted: "I have already gone back to the room to rest, such a scene, he has become accustomed to it, eating and sleeping fragrantly, as long as he finds a blank air and a sword around him, his magic weapon will automatically appear, take the initiative to attack, with the white tiger as a talisman weapon, he is like an extra defensive barrier, which is more effective than those guards, and with the blessing of strong internal force, the white tiger is more powerful." ”

Zi Feng nodded and said, "That's right, the White Tiger is not a rare magic weapon, but it is the master's strong internal force that makes the White Tiger amazingly powerful." ”

"It's been a busy night, it's been hard, you can go back to your room and rest for a while." Liu Qingyun said.

"You, don't you want me to accompany you to the street?"

Liu Qingyun was slightly stunned: "Do you still remember this?" Don't worry, you go to sleep, and go back in the afternoon. ”

Zi Feng shook his head: "No need, I can't sleep either." ”

He said: "In the past ten years, I have seen too many people who want to kill your father, and in the end, some people are killed, some people escape, if your father is really defeated and killed one day, what will happen to you?" ”

Liu Qingyun stared at him, was silent for a long time, and said: "He has killed too many people, and he has hurt too many people, if one day he is killed, I will pray that he will suffer less sin over there, if you kill him, then please kill me too, otherwise, I will kill you, because, after all, he is my father and your master!" ”

Zi Feng stared at her with a cold face, and after a moment, he turned around and walked away quickly.

Looking at his back as he calmly left, a touch of pain flashed in Liu Qingyun's eyes, which was a kind of anxiety that he couldn't say.

……

Although Liufu is not as big as the mansion in the capital, it also has four courtyards. There are halls, study rooms, etc. in the front yard, Liu Fansheng and his wife Liu Qingyun, and the younger brother's bedroom are all in the second courtyard, Zifeng's bedroom is in the third courtyard, and the guards live in the fourth courtyard.

Zifeng returned to the bedroom, washed his face, and sat down at the table, he didn't feel sleepy at all.

Fighting the Assassins wasn't once or twice for Zi Feng, but tonight's fight made him uneasy.

Thinking back to the Assassin tonight, he always had a feeling he couldn't put into words.

He said that his name was happy, this name, I don't know if it was his real name, or made it up casually, he couldn't see his face with his face covered, but his big eyes and smart eyes always had a strange attraction, which made him feel so familiar, familiar as the pair of eyes that he could dream of in a dream, and his gestures made him feel an unusual familiarity. However, his voice was unfamiliar, and his delicate melon seed face looked unfamiliar, so strange that he was deeply disappointed.

The kind of memory that goes deep into the bone marrow always stirs his heart, the sweet "brother", the naughty smile, all make him unforgettable. Therefore, although he has killed many people with the Sky Shaking Tiger, as long as he meets someone who is the same age as his younger brother and can make him feel that the other party has a trace of similarity with his younger brother, he will not kill the killer.

But he clearly knew that he secretly let the assassin go, not only because of the wonderful feeling in the depths of his heart, but because the target that the person wanted to assassinate was the heaven-shaking tiger Liu Fansheng.

……

In the afternoon, he originally promised to accompany Liu Qingyun to go shopping, but the Tianshahu said that the prince sent someone to urgently recruit him into Beijing, so he hurriedly returned to the capital with Zifeng, and when he arrived in the capital, he took Zifeng directly to meet the prince without stopping.

The prince is going to kill again. This time, the one to be killed is the Dongfang Jue, known as the Netherworld Saint.

At present, the martial arts are divided into two factions, the north and the south, this oriental trick is the grandmaster of the northern faction, and the talisman is the yin and yang axe. Dongfang Jue, who has passed the year of the sixtieth year, is upright, bold, righteous, although he is the master of the northern faction, but under his leadership, the relationship between the north and the south is very good, the martial arts are united, and there are very few disputes.

And the reason why the crown prince killed him this time was because he had received a tip-off that the second prince's people found the Netherworld Sage and asked him to lead the northern faction to support the second prince. How could such a highly respected Jianghu master fall into the hands of the second prince? So, the prince immediately sent someone to ask him to meet, but Dongfang Jue politely refused. Although the crown prince didn't know whether Dongfang Jue was willing to support the second prince, for the prince, such a knight who clearly refused to take refuge in him, he would inevitably kill him quickly, so he handed over this task to the sky-shaking tiger Liu Fansheng.

At this time, Zifeng raised a different opinion.

He said to the prince: "Your Royal Highness the prince, Zifeng thinks that you can't kill this netherworld saint. ”

The prince's eyes were grim, and he asked, "Who is the person this prince can't kill?" ”

Zi Feng replied: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants not only the throne, but also the hearts of the people, if you are not popular with the people, you are sitting on the throne of the emperor, I'm afraid you will not be able to sit steadily, won't the gains outweigh the losses?" ”

Hearing this, the prince was furious: "Purple wind! You are so bold that you dare to curse this prince. ”

The Sky Shaking Tiger also changed his face and reprimanded in a low voice: "Zifeng, are you crazy? Dare to talk nonsense in front of the prince?! “

Zifeng's face did not change, and Yun said lightly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't be impatient, please listen to Zifeng's words." ”

"Okay, I'd like to see what you can say. If that's not right, your head will be left in the Prince's Mansion today. The prince's face was full of anger.

Zi Feng's face was fearless, and he calmly replied: "Your Highness, the so-called one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, why does the second prince want to wantonly encircle the heroes and famous families in the rivers and lakes?" That's because he needs the hearts of the people, and so is you, Your Highness. The reason why you want to kill those warriors is because they support the second prince, not you, if you take these people under your command, you will not only have the support of the people, but also empty the second prince, so that he has no one to use and no one to borrow. ”

The prince said: "How can this prince not know this truth? I have sent people to talk about those chivalrous warriors and famous families, but they refuse to submit to me, so I will not do anything, and simply kill them quickly. ”

Zi Feng said: "If you refuse to submit, let them remain neutral." His Royal Highness is not far from the throne just by virtue of the identity of the crown prince, what are you afraid of him doing? Killing people will only cause public anger and be detrimental to Your Royal Highness's reputation, this may be what the second prince wants to see, he will bring these chivalrous warriors over, just waiting for you to kill it, the more he kills, the happier he is. ”

The prince slowly walked in front of Zifeng, pondered for a moment, and said: "What you said is not unreasonable, I said that why this second brother has always been looking for those chivalrous warriors in the open and honest recently, and he didn't hide much, it turned out that he deliberately let me see it, so that I could kill people and destroy my reputation." ”

Zifeng said on his forehead: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is as wise as a torch, he must have known the key to it a long time ago, and Zifeng also looks at the behavior of the second prince based on his personal judgment alone, and I hope His Royal Highness will correct it if it is inappropriate." ”

A smile crossed the prince's lips: "You are quite good at talking." ”

Zi Feng said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is extremely smart, Zi Feng is not as good as just in case, His Royal Highness works for state affairs day and night, and has a long-term vision, how can he not know the intentions of the second prince?" ”

The prince nodded: "Well, that's good." Could it be that you have a way to deal with Dongfang Jue? ”

Zi Feng asked: "Zi Feng is still the same sentence, no matter whether he defects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince or not, as long as he makes a stand and does not support the second prince and does not oppose His Royal Highness the Prince, then His Royal Highness will expose this matter. “

The prince let out a long breath, slowly paced in the room with his hands behind his back, and after a circle, he walked back to Zifeng, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said:

"There you go."

The Sky Shaking Tiger was stunned and asked, "Your Highness, do you mean to let Zifeng be a lobbyist?" ”

The prince smiled slightly: "That's right, Zifeng, I'm optimistic about you, you play well, see how you can pull Dongfang Jue to my side, even if you can't pull it, let him promise not to support the second child, and the prince will let him go." You have a good saying, everyone has been killed, and when I ascend the throne, won't I become a lonely person, how boring it is. ”

turned to the Sky Shaking Tiger and said, "Liu Fansheng, your apprentice has taught well." ”

The Sky Shaking Tiger was suddenly praised, and said flatteredly: "Your Highness, this is because you can afford Zifeng and hand over the heavy responsibility to him." ”

Zifeng also bowed his head and said: "Thank you Your Highness for your trust, Zifeng should live up to his mission,

……

Coming out of the Prince's Mansion, the Sky Shaking Tiger told Zi Feng: "It seems that the prince trusts you, but I have something to remind you, do you know why the prince trusts me?" ”

Zifeng said: "Because the master is loyal to the prince. ”

The Sky Shaker shook his head and said, "Definitely." The prince is suspicious by nature, and the reason why he trusts me is because I am a rough person, and I will only help him kill people, let me use my brain and make suggestions, I don't have this mind. That's where he reassures me. ”

Zifeng frowned and said, "Master, do you mean that while I help him with his strategy, I will also become a big trouble for him?" ”

The Sky Shaking Tiger said meaningfully: "Great wisdom is foolish, boy. Dealing with these people, we are for fame and profit, but we don't have to play with our lives. ”

Zi Feng's forehead: "Master's teachings, Zi Feng is in mind. ”

Sky Shaking Tiger sighed: "If it weren't for you being my apprentice, if it weren't for Qingyun valuing you, I wouldn't have told you this, we are all working for others, but don't really lose your little life." ”

Zi Feng said: "Yes, Zi Feng understands. ”

At this moment, Zifeng already knew what he should do next......
