Nine Dragons Jade Cup Chapter 35 Lift a stone and shoot yourself in the foot
Yang Xuyan, who was attacked by someone and hit his back with a palm, only felt that his blood was surging, but if he could be the left envoy of the dignified brocade guard, how could he be a vain person?
At the moment, this guy hidden in the darkness doesn't know how long he has been in ambush, waiting for him to relax because of his concentration, he took the opportunity to sneak attack, but fortunately, Yang Xuyan quickly sensed this trace of murder, so he avoided being killed on the spot.
Swallowed back the gushing blood and the blood that was about to come out of his throat, and confronted each other in pairs.
didn't succeed in one move, and even the killer in the darkness was a little surprised, and let out a vague "Huh......"
"Can't wait to kill people so soon?"
Yang Xuyan didn't laugh angrily, although he was a little embarrassed, he sneered very comfortably.
"Is it because I'm about to uncover the truth about how the Kowloon Cup was stolen? ”
In the dark, the man heard the last four words that came out of Yang Xuyan's mouth, and he didn't show much fluctuation.
He seems to have only come to kill people and doesn't like to talk too much.
Raising his hand, he came straight to the door of Yang Xuyan's face.
Those who enter the forbidden palace are not allowed to wear any weapons, this is the rule of the palace, Yang Xuyan can only accept the move with his bare hands, the two of them are close to each other, and Yang Xuyan will be defeated and retreated in less than 20 moves.
I was horrified in my heart, how did such a powerful master sneak into the Jinluan Palace without knowing it? Or how did he sneak in here in advance and wait for the opportunity to make a move? How did he get the news that he was coming to investigate the case in advance?
Could it be the soldier's squire Zuo Xiong?
Yang Xuyan had just come up with this idea and dispelled it.
Zuo Xiong is a human spirit who has been floating in the sea for decades, and he will never be so blatant, so it seems that there is only one possibility left.
That is, this guy has been in the palace all the time.
Thinking of this, Yang Xuyan shouted angrily.
"Sikong detective, even if I die today, I want to see your true face under this mask. ”
The man with the face covered in a face towel finally said one word, and the only one.
"Then I'll have to send you to your death. ”
......
"When we brought Yang Zuo back he was already like this. ”
The stunned guard said in a daze.
"It was the movement of the fight that alarmed the forbidden army guarding the palace, if it weren't for that, Yang Zuo would not have been lucky enough to pick up a life. ”
"I see. ”
Wang Chuyi nodded solemnly, and said: "Inform me, this matter is completely blocked, and it must not be spread out, so as not to cause more trouble." ”
Yang Xuyan was lying on the bed unconscious, the corners of his mouth had dried up, and many clothes on his body were torn, making his originally cold face look a little desolate at the moment.
"I guess he must have discovered some secret to be so eager to be killed, but it's a pity that he didn't leave any useful clues before he fell into a coma, not even a word, but fortunately, the forbidden army arrived in time to save his life. ”
Gently covering the pale Yang Xuyan on the bed, Xiao Wuji sighed with a little sigh in his tone.
It is still a cold winter, although there is a heating carbon fire in this room, and there are more than a dozen people including the lord of Yunxia, Wang Chuyi still can't feel the slightest warmth, a pair of hands behind him, his fists are clenched, and he can faintly see the small meridian lines on it.
Wang Chuyi, who has never been so calm since taking office, played with taste: "Thank you?"
Xiao Wuji said meaningfully: "No matter what the truth is, you should always do face-saving work, as an official in the court, you can not understand the strategy of governing the country, but you can't only not understand the sophistication of human feelings." ”
The conversation between the two fell into the ears of the Yunxia County Lord, and it became a little ironic.
The county lord snorted coldly: "Wang Chuyi, what do you mean by this? Isn't King Xinyang worthy of your gratitude? If it weren't for his forbidden army, I'm afraid that what he brought back now would be a corpse." ”
Although Xie Lingyun, who has been responsible for protecting the county lord on the side, does not know that the court is cheating, he can also see that Wang Chuyi must be uncomfortable at the moment, although he doesn't know why he brought this matter to the forbidden army, Xie Lingyun still reminded in a low voice: "County lord, now is not the time to say these words, it is important to heal Lord Yang first, and when Lord Yang wakes up, what happened can be quickly figured out." ”
"But I think he's not badly wounded. ”
Among the six masters, Hu Sanniang, whose status was second only to Xie Lingyun, frowned.
"I can't see what kind of martial arts it is, I can only see that the two of them are close to hand-to-hand combat, otherwise they won't be so embarrassed, but just with fists and feet kung fu can hurt Yang Zuo into this appearance, the perpetrator must not be an ordinary person, the key is ......"
Speaking of this, Hu Sanniang wanted to speak and stopped.
After glancing at the county lord who looked ugly because of Wang Chuyi's words, he finally chose not to say it.
You must know that these things have nothing to do with her as a martial artist at all.
However, this sentence was picked up by Wang Chuyi.
"The point is that such a guy who broke into the Jinluan Hall unknowingly, after injuring Yang Xuyan with great fanfare, can he get away safe and sound under the siege of the forbidden army, right? ”
"Hey, Wang Chuyi. ”
The lord of Yunxia County puffed up.
"Do you mean that my brother's men deliberately let go of the murderer?"
Brother Wang is talking about Song Kuo, the king of Xinyang, because he is also the family of the Son of Heaven, he was made the king brother by the lord of Yunxia.
I don't know if it's because I saw Yang Xuyan so half-dead, or because I thought of the earth-shattering conspiracy after Yang Xuyan fell into a coma, which made Wang Chuyi look cold like Yang Xuyan when they first met.
This feeling is very different from Wang Chuyi's usual style.
Therefore, the voice of the Yunxia County Lord, who found that something was wrong, became smaller and quieter, and in the end, he simply shut up and didn't say anything, but just snorted coldly: "Wang Chuyi, you suspect that my brother Wang's people are doing tricks, so I'll go and ask Brother Wang to come over and let the two of you make it clear face to face." ”
"County Lord, no. Xie Lingyun saw the appearance of the county lord's temper, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, saying: "What kind of person is the King of Xinyang? Where can I casually invite Jinyiwei? Not to mention that there must be some misunderstanding in this matter." ”
"Get out of the way, don't you even listen to me now? Have you forgotten how you lost at the hands of this guy last time, how he humiliated you with a finger?"
Xie Lingyun, who was choked with words, was speechless.
Fortunately, at this time, Wang Chuyi waved his hand and said, "Just let her go, it's okay." ”
After the Yunxia County Lord left in a huff, Xie Lingyun and the six of them followed without leaving an inch, and only Jinyiwei himself was left in this room.
Wang Chuyi, Xiao Wuji, Lao Wang, Qingzhu Niang.
"Do you really want her to go like this?"
Xiao Wuji looked at Wang Chuyi.
Even as a Jinyiwei think tank, he had to hand over the power to Wang Chuyi at this moment.
"If you go like this, it is equivalent to telling King Xinyang directly, we are making it clear that we can't get along with him, and there are ......"
Xiao Wuji paused.
"It's just that such a big thing has happened at this point, if you continue to investigate, how big a mess will there be, have you ever thought about it?"
"Have you ever thought about giving up? ”
Wang Chuyi pointed to Yang Xuyan, who was lying down.
"Would he have almost lost his life for this?"
Xiao Wuji didn't mention the words of stopping anymore, and said softly: "I've already asked a doctor to check his injuries, and I can't wake up for a while, within ten days for the better case, and cough cough for the bad case...... Maybe he won't be able to wake up this month, and after such an incident as him, if he wants to find out something, I'm afraid it's very rare, and the clues about Sikong Detective seem to be broken here. ”
"No, it's far from broken. ”
Wang Chuyi shook his head.
"Yang Xuyan was attacked in the palace, he must have found something that would make the other party have the intention of killing people, so just as I guessed at the beginning, there must be a cat in the Jinluan Palace, and if you find these clues, you will definitely be able to find out the Sikong probe, and finding the Sikong probe is equivalent to finding the Kowloon Cup. ”
......
......
"Jinyi Weizuo assassinated Jinluan Palace, and almost lost his life?"
In the pavilion, in front of a boxy table.
Song Dezhao, the king of Lian, looked at the secret document presented by Zuo Xiong with a strange expression.
"Has the murderer been caught?"
"According to the news from the forbidden army, the murderer was only injured, as for how the murderer infiltrated the Jinluan Palace, according to the forbidden army, it was the murderer who took advantage of the forbidden army to exchange night duty......"
Speaking of this, even Zuo Xiong, who is the most delicate and clear on weekdays, was a little unreasonable, so he simply didn't continue.
"What did Your Majesty say?"
"Your Majesty is naturally furious, in addition to the thorough investigation of the officers in charge of the security of the imperial city that night, even the King of Xinyang has been punished, and his salary has been reduced, including my ......"
Zuo Xiong was embarrassed.
"After all, the token to enter and exit the imperial city is given to Yang Xuyan by me, and it is in the name of my military department. ”
"Oh, how can there be such a thing?"
The elegant man who was sitting opposite Zuo Xiong and reading the papers smiled, and said gently: "Lord Zuo, Lord Zuo, you have been like a fish in water in the imperial court for decades. Today, I just lifted a stone to shoot myself in the foot, and you did it for a long time. ”
Zuo Xiong is a lot older than him, and it stands to reason that there shouldn't be much mood swing, but Zuo Xiong blushed for the first time, and sighed: "I just want to solve the case quickly, after all, although Jinyiwei is an independent organization, it can be regarded as under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, and I am not afraid of the prince's jokes, if I can solve this case, the face of the lower official can also add a lot of brilliance." ”
"Now that the fox hasn't been caught, it's not that it's incomprehensible, who doesn't want to add a legend to their eunuch career? This is not uncommon in the end, but what does Jinyiwei say?"
"This ......"
Zuo Xiong hesitated, and then said strangely: "So far, it seems that there has been no action, but when the county lord of Yunxia went to the Xinyang Palace, he was angry when he went, but he was elated when he went back to Jinyiwei." ”
"This is not difficult to understand, presumably on the list of this winter suburban hunt, there must be a brocade guard. ”
