Chapter 597: Personality Change
Although Luo Jianxin was angry at the overlord for executing his old friends at this time, after all, the overlord also gave him a step down, and he couldn't hold it anymore.
So Luo Jianxin stood up and bowed to the overlord, and she left the palace of the overlord and returned to the Luo family.
Luo Jian, who returned to the Luo family, always felt that something was wrong, so she asked the attendant to hand over the list of executed ministers to her.
Luo Jianxin carefully checked the list and didn't think of anything in common, these people seemed to have nothing special except for being close to him.
But Luo Jianxin saw that the name of the envoy was at the bottom of the list, and at this time Luo Jianxin felt strange, because if the overlord was only targeting himself, this envoy was not close to him.
Luo Jianxin can be said to be one of the top ministers in the hegemony, and the status of the envoy itself is not high, even if he gives gifts to himself on weekdays, he may not necessarily receive this envoy, why was this envoy suddenly executed.
So Luo Jianxin pointed to the name of the messenger on the list and asked his attendant, "What's the situation with this guy?" How was he also put to death? ”
The attendant said that he did not know the inside story, and this envoy was said to have gone to Junguo to meet Zhou Linlin, and then hurriedly returned to the royal capital of the overlord.
It is said that the messenger went to the overlord early that morning, and he didn't know what he said, and then the overlord executed the messenger.
After listening to this, Luo Jianxin realized that these executed ministers might not have anything to do with him, and it must be that something happened in Junguo that implicated these people.
So Luo Jianxin sent his attendants to quietly go to the city to find out the news, and he must find out who the envoy saw that day and what happened.
After the attendant agreed, he left the Luo family, and he immediately went to the city to inquire about the news.
But not far from the king, the squire encountered a troop of men, who were robbers on the road, all staring at the squire with fierce looks.
The attendant pretended to be brave at this time and walked to the front, shouting at the group of robbers: "You are so bold, do you know that I am from the Luo family, since you dare to rob me here?"
At this time, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind the robber, "The Luo family is the richest man in the hegemony, I think the Luo family must have a lot of treasures, right?" ”
At this time, a man walked out from behind this group of robbers, and this person was none other than Jin Lili, the prince of the overlord.
When the attendants of the Luo family saw Jin Lili, they understood that this group of robbers was not here to rob at all, but was sent by Prince Jin Lili to kill them, just to pretend that they were robbed and killed by robbers on the road.
At this time, the attendants understood that there must be a hidden secret in the death of these ministers, otherwise Jin Lili would not have come forward in person in this matter.
So the attendant of the Luo family bowed to Jin Lili first, and then said: "How can His Royal Highness the prince mix with the robbers, if it is known by outsiders, he will definitely gossip about His Highness." ”
At this time, Jin Lili showed a sinister smile, this smile was exactly the same as when he let the envoy drink the poisoned wine, Jin Lili said to the Luo family's attendants: "It's okay, as long as you die, no one will know about it." ”
I saw Jin Lili wave her hand lightly, and the robbers around her rushed up and killed the attendant.
After the robbers killed the attendants, they returned to Jin Lili's side, and they smiled and asked Jin Lili for credit, saying: "I didn't expect you to be His Royal Highness the Prince, since we are doing things for His Royal Highness the Prince, can we give this reward a little more?" We're never going to tell anyone about it. ”
Jin Lili also smiled slightly after seeing these greedy robbers, and then he took out a cloth bag, he put the cloth bag on the ground and untied it to show the robbers, this cloth bag was full of gold ingots, which made the robbers look at it with two eyes.
As soon as they swarmed up, they divided the gold ingots on the ground, but the robbers who had obtained so many gold ingots were not satisfied, and they watched as Jin Lili refused to leave.
"What's wrong? Aren't these ingots enough for you to spend? Jin Lili showed a smile at this time and looked at the robbers in front of her.
I saw that a robber led by him raised the big knife in his hand and waved it, and then said to Jin Lili: "I'm afraid that His Royal Highness the prince has more than this gold ingot, if you don't give a few more to my brother, we also have to support our family." ”
Jin Lili smiled at this time, he took out a few pills from his pocket, and then bounced the pills in his hand to show these robbers.
The bandit leader was a little disdainful when he saw the pill in Jin Lili's hand, he turned his face away and snorted coldly, "What's the use of this pill, is it very valuable?" I advise His Royal Highness the Prince not to play tricks on us, otherwise we will tell Lord Luo Jianxin about you, Lord Luo Jianxin is richer than you, and I think he must be willing to spend a lot of money to buy our news. ”
"Look at your hands first, I think you won't be arrogant when you wait." Jin Lili pointed to the hand of the robber leader at this time.
When the robbers heard this, their faces changed slightly, and they looked at their hands, which had turned iron blue, and they had been poisoned.
It turned out that Jin Lili had long predicted that these robbers would be greedy and insufficient, he had already prepared a batch of gold ingots, and he smeared poison on the outside of these gold ingots, and because the gold ingots were wrapped in cloth, Jin Lili did not directly contact the gold ingots, so he would not be poisoned, but these greedy robbers were poisoned.
At this time, the robbers knew that they were highly poisoned, and they understood that the pill in Jin Lili's hand was the antidote, so they all knelt in front of Jin Lili and begged Jin Lili to give them the antidote.
At this time, Jin Lili also smiled, and then asked the group of robbers, "Didn't you just say that you were going to tell Luo Jianxin?" Are you still going? ”
"If we don't go, we won't go, we won't reveal anything about His Royal Highness the Prince, please let His Royal Highness the Prince let us go." The robbers shook their heads, and they said they would keep the secret.
So Jin Lili nodded, and he threw the pill in his hand directly to the ground. The robbers crawled over like dogs, picked up all the pills on the ground and took them.
After the robbers took the pills, the symptoms of poisoning their palms did not subside, but their stomachs began to hurt, and they all lay on the ground and rolled in pain.
The leader of the robbers pointed at Jin Lili at this time and asked, "Your Royal Highness, did you take the wrong antidote?" Why do I feel that this antidote is not working? ”
At this time, Jin Lili smiled slightly, he slowly walked in front of the robber, then squatted down and made a grimace at the robber's head, and said: "Stupid, of course this is not an antidote, this is another poison that can make you die faster, do you think I will really give you the antidote?" ”
"You..." The robber leader reached out and grabbed the big knife next to him and slashed towards Jin Lili, Jin Lili fortunately reacted quickly, he dodged backwards, the knife did not hit himself, but only cut his clothes.
Jin Lili looked at his torn clothes at this time, he kicked the big knife in the hand of the robber leader in anger, and then stepped on the head of the robber leader, and scolded angrily: "You dog, do you know how expensive Lao Tzu's clothes are?" ”
Jin Lili kept stepping on the head of the bandit leader and watched him gradually die in front of him.
Since the overlord educated Jin Lili, Jin Lili understood that if she wanted to become an overlord, she must be ruthless, and the execution of the messenger and the use of these robbers were the reasons why he began to change.
At this time, Jin Lili saw that all the robbers were dead, so he patted the dust on his body and left with a cold snort.
And after Jin Lili left, a figure not far away suddenly flashed in front of these robbers, this person was a shadow spy left by the robbers, this guy was responsible for checking the intelligence, Jin Lili didn't know that there was another person.
The spy checked on his companion and found that his companion was dead.
The spy wanted to shout in grief, but soon he covered his mouth, he knew that Jin Lili had not gone far at this time, and he could not make a sound to attract Jin Lili's attention, otherwise Jin Lili would turn around and kill himself.
Since Jin Lili did not reveal her identity when she found these robbers, it was not until the Luo family's attendants said it that the robbers present understood that it was Prince Jin Lili who entrusted them with the task, and this news was unknown to the Shadow Explorer spies.
At this point, the spy looked at the bodies around him, and suddenly he suddenly noticed a rag on the ground, and he stepped forward to pick it up.
The spies took a closer look, the material of this rag was very light and thin, and in addition to the overlord, only Luo Jianxin had such a thing.
But the spy didn't think that the overlord would make a move on such an ordinary person, if it was the overlord, he didn't need to use such means to execute a person, he guessed that this was Luo Jianxin's hand.
The spy took the rag into his clothes, then raised the short knife in his hand and made a cut on his arm, blood dripping from his arm and dripping to the ground.
The spy wiped the blood from his arm on his face, and then swore to the sky, "Luo Jianxin! I'm going to make you pay with blood. ”
At this time, Luo Jianxin, who was in the capital of the overlord, didn't know about this, she thought that her attendant had arrived at the Earth Robbery City at this time to inquire about the situation, but this attendant went for several days and didn't come back, which was far beyond her expectations, Luo Jianxin understood that the attendant must have encountered something on the way.
That night, Luo Jianxin was reading in her study, this was her rare leisure time, she felt that her eyes were a little unsupportable at this time, and the upper eyelids and lower eyelids began to fight.
I saw that the moment Luo Jianxin closed his eyes, a figure jumped down from the beam of the room, this person was the shadow spy among the robbers.
This spy raised his short knife and approached Luo Jianxin step by step, and at this time, it happened that a moonlight shone on the short knife in the spy's hand, and the refraction of this moonlight shot directly at Luo Jianxin's eyes.
Luo Jianxin noticed a bright light in front of her, she immediately woke up, and at this time she found that there was a person in front of her who was holding a short knife and had already pounced on her.
Luo Jianxin reacted extremely quickly at this time, she dodged the spies' attack with one side, and then raised a kick to kick the spies directly to the ground.
When this spy wanted to raise his sword and attack Luo Jianxin again, he already had a flying sword on his neck.
Luo Jianxin looked at the spy in front of him coldly at this time, and then asked directly, "Who are you?" Why did you assassinate me? ”
