122. Civil strife broke out in the palace

Waiting for the saint to fall asleep and walking out of the main hall, the old eunuch let out a sigh of relief, he is indeed old, and he can't accept it.

"Ancestor, you haven't slept well for several days, your body is important, let's go and rest quickly, we are here to watch, you can rest assured."

Chunxi, the apprentice who had been standing outside the hall and waiting, hurriedly stepped forward to support the master, and he had been doing a good job.

"It's finally better today, you can't be careless, I'll go rest for a while, and tell me at any time if I have something."

Although the old eunuch was a little worried, he really couldn't stand it, but fortunately, now that the saint is a little more stable, and there is an imperial doctor on the side, he can take advantage of the rare free time to rest for a while.

The old eunuch waved his hand, signaling that Chunxi did not need to follow, and came to the matching room on the edge of the main hall, without any superfluous movements, he fell directly on the bed and fell asleep soundly.

This time he was indeed too tired, and with the illness of the saint eased a little, he let go of his previous caution and precautions.

After about two hours, the old eunuch slowly opened his eyes, slowly sat up, looked at Chunxi who was sitting at the table, and sighed.

"It seems that I am really old, and I have been deceived by you wolf cub for so many years."

"Ancestor, what are you talking about, I have been following my ancestor for decades, and I have always been respectful to you, where something went wrong. Now it's not that the ancestor is sick, I have no choice but to come out for a few days, as long as the ancestor is recuperating with peace of mind these days, and the pension is still wrapped in me, I just don't know if the ancestor let me do this filial piety. ”

The old eunuch glanced at Chunxi, slowly walked to the edge of the table and sat down.

And Chunxi saw the old eunuch coming, quickly stood up, smiled with a smile on his face, and quickly reached out and poured a glass of water for the old eunuch from the teapot on the table.

"Ancestor, this is just brewed tea, and I know that Ancestor will use it when he wakes up."

"Chunxi, I remember, you should have been in the palace for almost thirty years, you have done a good job, and it is really rare to have this perseverance, but you alone, it's not enough, the level is low."

"Ancestor, I know what kind of material I am, I didn't think about it too high, I just could eat with a mouthful of food, and I didn't want to die too early."

"It seems that you still know my temper, but unfortunately you didn't expect that during this time, in order to prevent someone from poisoning, a few days ago, I specially asked the imperial doctor for some antidote pills, just to prevent the people around me from having bad intentions!"

Before the old eunuch finished speaking, his right hand quickly slapped Chunxi in the chest.

Chunxi was originally guarding against the old eunuch, and when he avoided it sideways, he wanted to withdraw the weapon behind him, but he didn't dare to fight the old eunuch empty-handed.

The old eunuch didn't give him any chance at all, clapped his hands and picked up a piece of paperweight on the table, and rushed to Chunxi in the head.

Chunxi hurriedly jumped up to dodge, and casually pulled out a short blade and stabbed the old eunuch in the chest, just waiting for the old eunuch to dodge, and he could jump out of the door when he turned around, as long as he got out of the house, he could wait for the old eunuch to be poisoned.

Where did I think that the old eunuch just turned sideways slightly, dodged the vital point, and suffered a knife desperately, grabbed Chunxi's arm with his right hand, and slashed directly at Chunxi's neck with his left palm.

Hearing a crisp sound, Chunxi's neck was directly broken, and the corpse lay weakly on the ground.

At this time, looking at the old eunuch again, he couldn't hold back any longer, and blood kept spurting out of his mouth.

The old eunuch only had time to walk out of the door of the matching room, so he couldn't walk anymore, and the little eunuch who came over only said one word, beware of chaos in the palace, and died at the door.

Li Mu has also been very nervous these days, he always feels that there is something wrong in the capital, with years of intuition, he specially instructed his subordinates to send more people out to inquire about the news, and even Yun Ying was told by him a few times.

It's been another busy day, it's just dark, Li Mu rubbed his dizzy eyes, he was really sleepy, he simply lay down on the chair, thinking about sleeping for a while.

Li Mu slept for a long time, and a rush of footsteps sounded outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.

"Grand Commander, Grand Commander, there is something urgent to report."

Li Mu was suddenly awakened, and immediately sat up straight, "Come in!" ”

"Great Commander, there is a secret report, there are some mysterious people who entered the capital two days early!"

A small leader in charge of sorting out the information hurriedly walked in, holding a few pieces of paper in his hand.

Li Mu hurriedly stood up, ignoring even basic etiquette, and reached out to take the official document from the hand of the visitor.

There are only a few lines of text on the official document, and after investigation, there are unknown and mysterious people who have entered the capital recently, and they have been sent to follow them, but the personnel are relatively scattered, and there are some locations that cannot be approached, so it is a little tricky, please ask the commander how to deal with it.

Li Mu was shocked, it seemed that his intuition was right, something might really happen.

"You call a few of the leaders at home, we might be in big trouble!"

After Li Mu finished speaking, he didn't sit anymore, he kept pacing around the room, his mind spinning rapidly.

After a while, several leaders who had been waiting in the nest walked in, all with heavy expressions on their faces.

"Now there is something that you need to do, and the matter is more urgent, especially a few key places to keep an eye on."

Li Mu had just finished giving the order, and before he could say another second sentence, a person hurriedly ran outside the door.

"Commander, is there something urgent?" It was Zhou Qing, the deputy commander of the Silver Eagle Army, who came in.

"Commander Zhou," a few small leaders on the side hurriedly bowed.

"You guys go and get ready first," Li Mu commanded first, then turned around and sat down in a chair.

"Lord Zhou, take a look, things are getting more and more complicated in the capital now!"

"Great Commander, there is no way, is it an extraordinary time, but things still have to be done little by little, and there is no need to rush for a while."

"Come on, bring some food for the commander, and eat your stomach first."

"Great Commander, now there are many fish and dragons in the capital, I don't know how many spies from all over the country have come to inquire about the news, where can they manage so much, it's fast, wait for a while, the situation will be stable."

Li Mu nodded, yes, none of those officials in the thirteen states wanted to get the news earlier, the situation was pressing!

Looking at the refreshments and food brought in, Li Mu was not too polite, he wanted to eat something first, there were still many things to do, he couldn't do it like this, otherwise something would really happen, and he wouldn't even have the energy to deal with it.

Li Mu simply made up for it, and immediately called someone to ask how the leaders who had just arranged were prepared.

After a while, several leaders returned to Li Mu, and looking at their outfits, they knew that they should be ready.

Li Mu stood up and admonished a few more times, emphasizing that the safety of some important ministers must be ensured. I don't know if I'm in a hurry to get up, or if I'm in a hurry to eat just now.

Li Mu felt his mind dazed for a while, and there were many shadows in front of him, and he sat down all of a sudden.

"Commander Zhou, for so many years, I have always suspected that the opponent is you, but there is no sign, you hide it well, but I really can't figure it out, what are you for?"

The blood on Li Mu's left hand that was placed under the table dripped down little by little, he was really busy today, ignoring some details, and didn't think deeply about why Zhou Qing was still in the nest at this time, deadly!

At this time, he could only barely sober up by piercing himself.

Before Li Mu's words were finished, he saw that two ringleaders were directly stabbed in the left and right ribs by the people around them without defense, and they died on the spot after just struggling.

"Grand Commander, I don't mean anything else, I don't want to replace you, and I don't have any intention of being a high-ranking official. It's just that I can't help it, I owe someone a favor, it's too big, it's not okay! ”

"Then I understand, seeing that you are so relaxed, I was still jealous, it turned out to be the same!"

The two were chatting here, and Li Mu could barely see anyone in front of him, and his voice slowly became quieter.

Just then, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and someone knocked on the door and walked in.

"Let's go, let's go," Li Mu seemed to see Yun Ying coming in, he didn't want to believe it, and still tried his best to shout to let him go, but he found that at this time, he was almost speechless.

Yun Ying also received an urgent message, and while letting people keep an eye on it, he hurried back to tell the commander.

When he heard that the Grand Commander already knew and was arranging personnel, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurried over to take a look at the situation.

When he entered the door, he noticed something unusual, the Grand Commander had never sat like that before, almost slumped in his chair. His face was pale, his eyes were almost open, and the Grand Commander would never look like this.

Yun Ying's martial arts were enough to rank in the top three in the entire nest, and in the face of the remaining five or six leaders, he could only strike first.

But even if Yun Ying was prepared, from the moment he stepped into the door, the two leaders who were close to the door made a move. So almost at the same time, Yun Ying's knife had just slashed at a leader in front of him, and the two knives behind him had already slashed over.

Yun Ying had just dodged the knife behind him, and two more knives were slashing from top to bottom in front of him, Yun Ying could only dodge one sideways, and then split the other with the knife.

But at this time, a sword suddenly stabbed out silently from behind the pillar behind him, Yun Ying couldn't dodge, and was hit by a sword in his left shoulder, and all of a sudden, blood came out.

Yun Ying could only turn sideways again, and the knife in his right hand slashed at the two people behind him, but with his left hand, he secretly pulled out the chain gun on his waist and stabbed the leader on the side of the pillar.

The leader behind the pillar watched a sword stab, and a strong step snatched it out, facing Yun Ying from behind is a sword.
