Lao Jianhua's decision was to kill people immediately.

At this time, all the servants in the house gathered in the front yard to serve the banquet, and several of Mrs. Qin's maidservants were also sent to eat and rest, and there were only two ladies and a personal maid gossiping in the house.

If he had used his methods neatly, he could have killed the three of them unknowingly, and then returned to the front yard to continue drinking, creating an unsolved case with no evidence.

No one knew that Lao Jianhua had slipped into the inner house, and on the surface, he really didn't have any motive to kill, so no one would link the suspicion to him.

After careful consideration, Lao Jianhua did not hesitate and immediately broke into the house to do something.

Qin Shen's two ladies and the maid were all ordinary ladies with delicate physiques. was suddenly attacked by Lao Jianhua, who was strong in martial arts, and he didn't even have a chance to shout, so his heart was shattered under the heavy palm bombardment, and he was killed on the spot.

After Lao Jianhua succeeded, he confirmed that the three of them were out of breath, and were about to turn around and leave, when he suddenly heard the crying of a baby from the cradle next to him.

It was Shen Lie's child who had just reached the full moon.

Lao Jianhua didn't plan to pay attention to a baby, but the child's crying was too loud, which was likely to attract the attention of people nearby. So he didn't stop doing it, and hit a hand knife in the air, which instantly stunned the baby unconscious, and then made no movement.

Coincidentally, at this time, Qin Zhu came.

It turned out that at the wine table just now, Qin Zhu and a brother were arguing about the doorway of "Hetian Meiyu". The two of them insisted on their own words, and neither of them was convinced. Qin Zhu then decided to go to the study to get a pair of jade that he had treasured for many years, so as to prove that the other party was speechless.

Just as he came out of the study with the jade bi in his hand, he happened to hear the child's cry. He didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that the child was hungry and crying in a hurry to feed, so he continued to walk to the front yard. Unexpectedly, the child was still crying in the last second, but the crying stopped abruptly in the next second. Qin Zhu couldn't help but stop, he felt that the crying had stopped a little strangely, it didn't seem to be normal, so he turned around and came back to check.

It didn't matter if he looked at it, Qin Zhu was suddenly shocked by the scene in front of him.

His wife was lying on her back on the ground, without the slightest life, and Mrs. Shen was lying next to her, also out of breath.

Qin Zhu exclaimed in surprise, and was about to step forward, when he suddenly noticed that the cold wind behind him was rising, and a fierce palm force hit his vest.

As the head of the Beiya Reverse Scale Division, Qin Zhu's martial arts are naturally among the masters. Although he was a little distracted by the loss of his wife's life, he still reacted in time to the sneak attack, suddenly lifting his breath and rushing forward, which was able to avoid the palm blow, and then turned around and saw who the assassin was.

"Lao Jianhua, you!"

Without waiting for Qin Zhu to finish speaking, Lao Jianhua pounced forward again, using his fists and palms together, and launched a more fierce attack.

After years of cooperation, Qin Zhu knew that Lao Jianhua's martial arts were very strong, but he never expected that the other party still hid his true strength. Now the skills shown by this old subordinate are several times higher than Qin Zhu's expectations, and his moves are tricky and ruthless, and it is difficult to parry.

Qin Zhu wanted to call for the people in the front yard to come for reinforcements, but Lao Jianhua fought faster and faster, and the fist wind pressed him so much that he didn't even have the strength to breathe a sigh of relief, let alone call for help. In desperation, Qin Zhu was in a hurry, and threw the jade bi in his hand towards Lao Jianhua, and at the same time retreated, taking advantage of this moment, he shouted: "Someone!" ”

Yubi flew in front of Lao Jianhua, and was about to hit, but saw Lao Jianhua gently raise his sleeves, turn around, put Yubi in his sleeve, and then shot back at Qin Zhu.

Qin Zhu didn't expect Lao Jianhua to have such a strange move, and it was too late to dodge, so he had to throw a punch to block the jade bi.

The jade bi contained the two internal forces of Qin Zhu and Lao Jianhua, and it spun rapidly and hit the fist, and it exploded with a bang, and the force of the shock suddenly caused Qin Zhu a lot of internal injuries. What's even worse is that Lao Jianhua took advantage of Yubi's castration to flash to Qin Zhu like a shadow, and while Qin Zhu blocked Yubi from suffering internal injuries, he hit him in the chest with three consecutive punches.

Qin Zhu's sternum shattered, he couldn't help but roar, and flew out of the air and slammed into the wall.

"And then?" Liu Ce asked, "Lord Qin, he ......?"

Shen Lie endured the pain in his heart and said in a deep voice: "When my colleagues and I heard the shouts of the master and hurried to the inner house, Lao Jianhua had already fled. The master forced to say the words 'The murderer is Lao Jianhua', and he died on the spot. And my poor boy was too young to support Lao Jianhua's palm, so he soon went with his mother. Later, His Majesty appointed me to take the Master's place and take charge of the Northern Ya Reverse Scale Division. Lord Liu, in public and private, I have never slackened my arrest of Lao Jianhua, a traitor, over the years. ”

"Shen Qing, it's hard for you." Li Chengwu sighed and said: "At the beginning, Lao Jianhua committed a heinous crime, involving your teacher, wife and children, I have read the file and know a little about these things. However, his motive for doing so at that time has never been clarified. Listening to you today, I realized that there are many twists and turns in this, which is really unexpected. Why didn't you tell me the details of these cases earlier? ”

Shen Lie bowed and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, for a long time before, Wei Chen couldn't figure out what Lao Jianhua's motive for committing the crime was. It wasn't until Xie Guang rebelled, and when Wei Chen checked the information of Feng Yiwei, the commander of the Long Knife Legion, he inadvertently found the file of Lao Zishang that the master hid in the secret file, which deduced the ins and outs of the whole incident. Today, His Majesty asked about Lao Jianhua, and Weichen did not dare to hide it, and hoped that His Majesty would forgive him. ”

Li Chengwu nodded and said to himself: "In this way, it is really inappropriate to let Lao Jianhua stay by Bing'er's side. What should we do? ”

Liu Ce arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, according to the information provided by Lord Shen, we can completely conclude that Lao Jianhua is neither loyal to the first emperor, nor to you, let alone to the crown prince. Such a femme fatale is a minister, and he will never be able to assist the East Palace. But the problem is that at present, the crown prince is deceived by Xie Guang and his gang, and whether we send someone to arrest Lao Jianhua or remind His Highness to guard against this person, the effect will not be too good. For today's plan, the only way to do this is to let the ministers go to Luoyi and accompany His Royal Highness to escort them. ”

Shen Lie shook his head: "Lord Liu, although you are the young master of the crown prince, there is no problem with your identity. However, after all, you are a civil official, and you leave the court to deal with opponents like Lao Jianhua and Xie Guang, let alone protect the prince, and when you encounter a critical juncture, I am afraid that you will not even be able to protect yourself. ”

Liu Ce was suddenly speechless by Shen Lie's words. He himself knows that the situation in Luoyi is extremely dangerous, and the words of Director Shi of the Anti-Scale Division are not unreasonable. However, let Lao Jianhua, a poisonous snake, approach Li Bing, and he, who is a teacher, really can't feel at ease.

Li Chengwu thought for a moment, lightly knocked on the dragon case, and said, "Liu Ce's suggestion reminded me that it is time for us to send people to the Eastern Capital. Whether it is assistance or protection, in short, there must be a reliable person by Bing'er's side to prevent him from being further bewitched by Xie Guang and Lao Jianhua. Two Aiqing, I just have a suitable candidate in my heart, and the prince will definitely be able to accept him. ”

Hearing what the emperor said, Shen Lie and Liu Ce glanced at each other, and at the same time they both saw the answer from the other party's gaze. Liu Shizuo hesitated and asked, "Is the candidate Your Majesty said Murong Xue?" ”

"Well, that's him." Li Chengwu bowed slightly: "Murong Xue is the person who was specially left to the prince before Nian Jinsong left. On the side of Mingdemen, Bing'er owed him a great favor again, and asked him to go to Luoyi, asking for Wen Nengwen and Wu Nengwu, which is very suitable. Moreover, I also know that the Murong family is strong and can become a strong backing for the crown prince in the future. ”

Liu Ce nodded, didn't say anything, Shen Lie arched his hand and said, "Since Your Majesty has this holy will, Wei Chen thinks it might as well give it a try." ”

-

After listening to the new task assigned by the emperor, Murong Xue simply bowed down to the order.

Li Chengwu looked at Murong Xue carefully, and said curiously: "Little Murong, looking at your expression, it seems that I had expected to send you to the Eastern Capital for a long time, is that so?" ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen is indeed mentally prepared in this regard." Murong Xue calmly responded: "Before Xie Guang instigated the rebellion of the Xuanjia Army, His Majesty adopted Xu Shuai's suggestion and ordered the crown prince to supervise the country. Of course, there are factors forced by the situation, but there is also the meaning of training the prince. Since this is the case, it is impossible to allow traitorous ministers to bewitch His Highness for a long time. Weichen speculated that sooner or later, the imperial capital would send someone to Luoyi to accompany him to protect the prince, and Weichen should also be among the candidates. ”

Liu Ce nodded again and again when he heard this, while Shen Lie's eyes were blazing, and he seriously looked at the young man in front of him.

Li Chengwu said happily: "Okay, it is worthy of being the person that Nian Taifu likes, very good." So how many people are you going to bring with you? ”

"Weichen, one person, one horse and one bow, is enough."

"Without a guard?" Li Chengwu was a little surprised: "Don't you know the danger of this trip?" ”

Murong Xue explained: "Your Majesty Mingjian. The eastern capital Luoyi is now completely under the control of Xie Guang and the Xuanjia Legion, unless you give an order and let Weichen pull the entire Qilin Army over, it makes no difference whether there is an escort or not. Besides, when they get there, the people under Weichen are also likely to be bribed by the other party, and bringing their entourage will hinder the overall situation. Therefore, it is more refreshing for Weichen to go alone, and it can also make Xie Guang difficult to know the depth and suspicious. ”

Shen Lie answered: "Your Majesty, General Murong is right. Among the entourage guards, there are all kinds of people, and it is very easy to be exploited by the other party, so it is better not to bring them. After General Murong arrived in Luoyi, he did not fight alone, and the Reverse Scale Division would have someone to contact him and provide advice and protection in secret. ”

"I can get Lord Shen's care," Murong Xue smiled: "At least half of the last general's life has been saved." ”

Li Chengwu and Liu Ce both heard the slight irony in Murong Xue's words, and couldn't help but show a thoughtful look, but Shen Lie reacted freely, and said with a smile: "General Murong has won the award." Shen doesn't have any great skills, he just does his best for His Majesty. Speaking of which, I also have one more thing, I would like to ask the general to help. ”
