Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Desperate Swordsman
Renzong heard more than one voice coming from behind him, and hurriedly looked back in fright, and saw four people kneeling on the Yaowu Tower, and a room full of forbidden soldiers and soldiers all jumped, where did these four people come out, but no one saw them! In an instant, countless spears and steel knives were pointed at the four people in an instant!
Although Emperor Renzong was also startled, he hurriedly waved his hand to stop the military academies: "Stop!" and then said to the four people: "You four are elusive......
Xia Suiliang and the others kowtowed together: "The grass people disturb the holy car, it is a capital crime!"
Emperor Renzong waved his hand and said: "The four of you don't have to be like this, you are Hua Chong's master and uncle, you must have no malicious intent, I won't pursue it!
Xia Suiliang said: "Long live, I waited in the city for Hua Chong, and saw that he had not left the palace at this time, so I took advantage of the darkness of the night to sneak into the palace and take a look." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info but unexpectedly coincided with the fight between Chong'er and Zhuang Ziqin, we took advantage of the chaos to hide downstairs, just Banzai passed the decree, we came up from the first floor, Banzai looked out the window, so I never saw the grass people. ”
Renzong nodded and said, "There are thousands of forbidden troops upstairs and downstairs, and the four of them can calmly see me, and they really deserve to be the disciples of the Little Penglai Martial Saint!"
Xia Suiliang's face was expressionless, and he said coldly: "If it weren't for our lack of malice, I'm afraid that we would have already become powder." ”
Emperor Renzong laughed and said, "Sure enough, he's a master!
Hua Chong was shocked into a cold sweat, listening to the meaning of the master, it was obvious that the emperor was escorted by a master!
Renzong looked at Hua Chong and couldn't help laughing: "Hua Aiqing, now that you have this Zhuang Ziqin, do you want to continue to investigate?"
Hua Chong hesitated: "It should be checked, but how many thieves there are here, but it's hard to say, I hope Banzai can let my master and uncle help together." ”
When Xia Suiliang heard this, he said: "Long live, the grass people and others are willing to help him." ”
Renzong nodded and said, "In that case, please ask a few masters to assist Hua Chong and Zhanzhao in searching for spies." ”
With the help of the four masters and uncles, the efficiency of the investigation is much higher, Xia Suiliang and others are experienced, and at a glance, whether this person is disguised or not, whether he is equipped with martial arts can be known.
More than 1,000 eunuchs were inspected one by one, and no one with problems was found, and Emperor Renzong finally felt a lot more at ease. Rao is Hua Chong and others are efficient, and the whole process has lasted for nearly two days.
Renzong said to everyone: "You have worked hard, I should reward you heavily." ”
Hua Chong said: "Long live Fang has been rewarded in front of the Queen Mother, and the ministers should be loyal and do their best, and today to eliminate harm for the country is to repay the grace of God." ”
Renzong was very satisfied with his statement, and after a few words of encouragement, he ordered Chen Lin to be responsible for organizing the return of these eunuchs, and he ordered a banquet to entertain Hua Chong and others. After all, after tossing for half a night, the emperor will also be hungry. At this time, Empress Dowager Li, Bawang and others had already finished dinner and went back to the palace to rest, and the emperor personally accompanied everyone to eat this supper.
When everyone was seated, Xia Suiliang suddenly pointed to a person and said to Renzong: "Long live, all the eunuchs have been inspected, why is there no him?"
The person who was pointed out was taken aback, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Long live, didn't you say that I have no suspicion with Gonggong Chen, and you want me to serve the Queen Mother for a banquet? This... How is this..."
Emperor Renzong looked at Hua Chong: "Hua Guard, didn't you say that Guo Huai was poisoned by Guo An? It has nothing to do with Chen Lin, Chen Lin, Guo Huai, and Ma Chaoxian drank together at noon, and he is Ma Chaoxian!"
Hua Chong looked up and saw that the person kneeling on the ground was about fifty years old, with thin eyebrows, triangular eyes, tall and fair skin, and his body was indeed like a sieve chaff under his eyes, trembling incessantly.
Hua Chong looked at Ma Chaoxian carefully, and saw that he was sweating coldly on his forehead, and his hands were not the kind of bloodless white, so he asked Xia Suiliang: "Master, does he have a problem?"
Xia Suiliang looked at Ma Chaoxian and said: "His problem is not his skin, you only care about the white skin, that is, the person who uses poison, but you don't know that the real master of poison will never be like this, Zhuang Ziqin applies poison to himself, so his skin is pale." And people who use poison to the extreme are all proficient in pharmacology, and curing diseases and saving people and poisoning people are just a thought, right? Ye Qiusheng!"
Hua Chong was surprised: "Desperate swordsman Ye Qiusheng!"
The "Ma Chaoxian" was not trembling at the moment, stood up from the ground, shook his head and said: "I have specialized in poison all my life, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't escape the eyes of the Golden Lantern Swordsman, how did you find out?"
Xia Suiliang didn't speak, but Ji Chengda on the side said: "If you don't poison this wine and food, we really won't be able to find out." ”
Xia Suiliang continued: "My junior brother is also good at using poison, do you know how he practiced?"
Ji Chengda didn't wait for Ye Qiusheng to reply, and replied by himself: "I poisoned my senior brother's food, if he is poisoned, I win, but unfortunately I haven't poisoned him once!"
Hua Chong had a black line and said speechlessly: "Why haven't I heard you talk about this? Does the Martial Saint know......."
Ji Chengda said with a smile: "Of course I know, the senior brother doesn't use poison, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't understand poison, it can be said that there are four masters who use poison in the world, you and I count one as the second master, the second poison in Zhejiang can be counted among them, and the other should be regarded as Jiang Honglie, that kid and your master are little brothers." ”
Xia Suiliang said: "I have been exposed to various drugs since I was a child, but I am not interested in those things. ”
Emperor Renzong pointed to this table of dishes and said in surprise: "Is it all poisonous here?"
Ji Chengda nodded: "That's right, it's all poisonous!"
"How did you find out?"
Ji Chengda said: "Even if it is a colorless and odorless poison, there are traces to follow, and a little taste that should not appear here, or a little change in color, is the basis for poisoning." ”
Emperor Renzong is escorted by several masters at the moment, and his heart is also steady, he doesn't take Ye Qiusheng to heart at all, and he is not as nervous as when Hua Chong and Zhanzhao captured Zhuang Ziqin just now.
"Ye Qiusheng, I ask you, where did the real Ma Chaoxian go?"
"He has long since died, if he does not die, how can I come?"
"You are all under the command of the king of Xiangyang, how many other comrades are there?"
Ye Qiusheng sighed and said: "Do you think your palace is a vegetable market? It's not easy for the two of us to come in, and the two of us can be regarded as the top people in the rivers and lakes, otherwise, just the few old people you raised will be enough for us to die ten times." What's more, this kung fu of shrinking the yang into the yin is not practiced by everyone, is anyone willing to work as a meticulous work in the palace?"
Renzong said: "Is there any other place where there are the henchmen of the King of Xiangyang? What else do you know? Tell me the truth, I can consider letting you go!"
Ye Qiusheng said disdainfully: "Let me go? How is it possible? If it is an ordinary martial arts figure, maybe it is still possible, I am a master of poisoning, will you let me go? Which emperor is not afraid of death? If you deceive a ghost, you will believe you?"
The emperor sneered: "In that case, you tell the truth, how about I give you the whole corpse?"
Ye Qiusheng said: "I can tell you clearly, what you want to know, I can't know! Zhuang Ziqin and I are only responsible for collecting wind in the palace, and there are many masters around you, how dare we act rashly? However, there are two things I can tell you. ”
Renzong waved his hand to interrupt Ye Qiusheng: "If it is the King of Xiangyang who built Chongxiao Tower in the palace, and the list of those who participated in the rebellion hangs upstairs, then there is no need to say it." ”
Ye Qiusheng was surprised and said, "You also have spies by the side of King Xiangyang!"
Renzong said proudly: "Otherwise, do you think that my 'Imperial City Division' is the one who watches the city gate?"
Ye Qiusheng sighed: "Since that's the case, I don't expect anything, but ask for one thing." ”
"You're no longer qualified to talk to me about anything!
"But I want to fight with Xia Suiliang! I have heard for a long time that Xia Suiliang below the Three Saints is the number one master, and he can die in his hands, and this life is not in vain. ”
Emperor Renzong looked at Xia Suiliang: "I have heard for a long time that the Golden Lantern Swordsman is strong in martial arts, can I fight with it?"
Xia Suiliang hurriedly got up and saluted: "The grass people hope that Hua Chong can fight on behalf of the grass people!"
Hua Chong looked at Xia Suiliang blankly, and muttered, "Why is it ......me again?"
