Your Highness asked me to pay him back his honor

There was a wind blowing under the little prince's feet, he hurried out and disappeared completely in the blink of an eye.

Yun Lang put on his clothes and went to the ground, and searched around outside the study.After listening to the gatekeeper Xuan Tiewei's reassurance that the prince had already left the gate, he went back to change his night clothes, tidied up, and quietly left the gate in the dark.

As the Shangyuan Festival gets closer, lanterns are lit up everywhere in Bianliang City, forming a sea of ​​light.

Kaifeng Mansion is busy day and night, and the burned streets and squares have been repaired neatly, without traces of war.

The newly built blue-striped stone brick walls are smooth with glutinous rice paste.The brick kiln was presided over by Daxiangguo Temple. Each kiln was fired carefully, and the body of the brick was carved with amulets for disaster relief.

On the street, the Aoshan Mountain where the lanterns were hung was re-tied. The bamboo frame was more magnificent and magnificent than before, and the Aozhu was also higher than the previous time.Thirty thousand lamps form a light array, stacked one on top of the other, and the flower lanterns are placed outside. The Wen lanterns are elegant, the hot lights are dazzling, and the revolving lanterns make the hot air fly around. It is a real fiery tree and silver flowers.

Yun Lang sat on the eaves with the dim sum stuffed by the old master, looked at the lights, stuffed the last piece into his mouth, clapped his hands and got up.

Shang Ke had already received the letter from Dao Scar, and stopped behind him in night clothes.

"I really guessed right?"

Yun Lang smiled: "You will come, which means that it was not you who was ordered by King Xiang to contact Pang Gan...it was Tian Ying who recruited the eagle shooter?"

Shang Ke nodded, and handed over three notification fireworks: "This is a fireworks order to summon the Zodiac Envoys. The smoke column is extremely high. Anyone who can see it must gather under the smoke."

The nine zodiac envoys under King Xiang's account were named according to the position of the Big Dipper, and each performed their duties.Some people fled and hid with King Xiang, while others scattered in the lower state capital, rectifying the remaining forces and waiting for an opportunity.Among those who stayed in the capital, including Shang Ke, there were three people.

King Xiang was vigilant, and the envoys of the Zodiac only communicated with each other through text messages and did not see each other.The current situation is more chaotic than before, and the only way to call for contact is the firework order.

Yun Lang thanked and took the fireworks over: "If I use it, will it trouble you?"

Shang Ke shook his head: "Every zodiac envoy has the same firework order, and they often mix them up. A few days ago, Prince Xiang's mansion failed and there was chaos. I accidentally lost more than a dozen of these things, and now there is nowhere to track them down."

Shang Ke wanted to summon Yang Xianyou to leave behind those humble children who tried Shuangtang. They were running around these days, but they missed the eagle shooter in Tianying's hand.

He already knew what happened to Yun Lang and Xiao Shuo in the palace, he looked ashamed, and said in a low voice: "If there are any more mistakes... then it's fine, I'm afraid I won't be able to prevent it and hurt people again."

"If it's really important, Mr. Yun can set off a firework order first to divert the tiger away from the mountain so that he can escape easily."

Shang Ke said: "Even if you can't get away, those minions in Prince Xiang's mansion saw this thing and knew it was the envoy of the Zodiac, so they didn't dare to act rashly."

Yun Lang understood what he heard, looked at the three fireworks in his hand, and guessed the general whereabouts of the dozen or so "accidentally lost" fireworks tokens, and smiled: "How many did Brother Shang give to Kaifeng Mansion?"

Shang Ke was about to lead the way for him, but when he heard this, his footsteps stopped, and his expression was rather cramped: "Master Yun."

"Brother Shang's heart, I naturally understand."

Yun Lang didn't joke with him, put away his teasing look, and persuaded in a slow voice: "The king's affairs in the world will come to an end one day... When everything is done, he will find a place to return to after he is alive and dead."

"How dare you think about this?"

Shang Ke sighed and smiled wryly: "If it's true——"

Yun Lang asked: "Really what?"

"It's nothing." Shang Ke shook his head, "Don't mention this matter, Master Yun, do you have a plan if you go to the Great Seal of Prince Yan's Mansion today?"

Yun Lang didn't speak, but put the fireworks into his arms.

Knowing that he was always reliable, Shang Ke nodded and led the way: "Go this way."

Yun Lang clicked and stopped, without saying a word, followed Shang Ke into a remote path, bypassing the main road on the street.

Taishi Mansion is in the southeast of the city, where the wind gathers energy and the water flows in and out, which is a rare good Fengshui.

The two of them didn't go through the main entrance, they skimmed over the mansion wall, and landed firmly on the clean bluestone floor.

"Tianying started contacting the Grand Master's Mansion three months ago, with the intention of getting a seal from Prince Yan's Mansion."

Shang Ke said in a low voice: "In the first few times, Pang Gan rebuked him righteously and angrily, saying that he would rather die than be loyal to the emperor, and would never do such fluffy things."

Yun Lang was dumbfounded: "Just scolding?"

Shang Ke nodded: "I didn't even blow out the people sent by King Xiang... At that time, Yang Xianyou judged that there must have been a rift between the Grand Master's Mansion and the palace."

Just as Yun Lang was about to speak, his expression moved slightly into the shadow of the tree, avoiding a group of patrolling guards passing by.

Shang Ke stood on the spot without dodging or evading. The group of guards were about to be on guard. Some sharp-eyed people recognized them and bowed down to salute respectfully: "Master Shang, why are you here today? It's not time to meet..."

"Some things." Shang Ke said, "Where is your grand master?"

"study."

The headed guard clasped his hands and reported: "Last night, there were assassins in the palace, even the emperor was injured, and the grand master was also frightened. He asked the imperial doctor from the palace to check his pulse."

Shang Ke's expression was flat: "In the palace?"

The leader of the guards thought of where he came from, his heart shivered, and he hurriedly said: "Prince Xiang, don't worry, it's not the emperor's man! It's the Taishi's eyeliner in the palace, which has been placed for many years... It is absolutely no intention to inquire about the emperor's situation. "

The leader of the guard glanced at Shang Ke, and said cautiously: "In the past, it was Tianying who came to send messages. How did you change the master today? Come to the house late at night, but what's the rush?"

"Last night, things happened in a hurry, and the grand master was shocked before the announcement was made in time."

Shang Ke said: "Master Yang Ge ordered me to visit and make amends."

The leader of the guards did not dare to say: "Prince Xiang deliberately kept his hand from hurting the grand master, the grand master knows it well, why not feel sorry? How could he not know what is good or bad..."

The garden is clean, the voices of the two are not loud, but they can be heard clearly behind the shadows of the rockery and trees.

Listening to the voice, Yun Lang frowned, his heart sank.

He and Xiao Shuo had expected Grand Master Pang to waver, but seeing the current situation, it was not just wavering.Being able to speak so familiarly with Shang Ke, I'm afraid that the Grand Master's Mansion has completely made it clear that the chariots and horses have switched to King Xiang.

Pang Gan has worked hard for these years, and he has accumulated more than a few official handles and connections in the court.If all these fell into King Xiang's hands, even if the Xiangyang iron cavalry had been destroyed, it would still stir up an unstoppable bloody storm in the court.

Shang Ke only came to the Grand Master's Mansion with the Minister of Dali Temple three months ago, and showed up a few times.Now listening to the meaning revealed in the guard's words, my heart tightened, and I frowned: "I have something important to do with the Grand Master, please lead the way."

The leader of the guards did not doubt him, and led the way in front, leading Shang Ke to the study.

The study room was lit, and through the window, two blurred figures could be seen inside.

The guard led Shang Ke to the door, and politely cupped his hands: "My lord, wait a moment, I will report later."

There was a guest in the house, the guard knocked on the door twice, only to hear the answer from inside, and then gently pushed the door open: "Teacher, there is a guest—"

The guard was startled, looked back at Shang Ke, and then at the man in purple in front of him: "Tianying...Master Tianying?"

King Xiang is indeed paying more and more attention to the Taishi Mansion these days, especially after the defeat of the rebel army, someone will come to the Taishi Mansion to deliver letters every few days.

However, Tianying and Tianchong among the envoys of the Zodiac actually appeared together, and it was the first time since the envoys of King Xiang visited the door three months ago.

Shang Ke's heart sank completely, and he stood outside the door without moving.

Last night, when he went to assassinate the emperor in the palace, he brazenly used the only eagle shooter under King Xiang's tent, and the one who almost put Yun Lang and Xiao Shuo in danger was the Celestial Envoy in front of him.

Originally, he had thought about trying to see if he could try to bluff this seal out of Grand Master Pang Gan's hands without using Yunlang's hands.

Now that Tianying shows up, I am afraid that hope is completely lost.

"Tianchong, Pojun."

In the study, Tianying stared at him, the scar on his face showing a faint sternness: "You don't do your business, come here to take my credit?"

Shang Ke stood at the door and said calmly, "When did you come?"

"I'm here every day, I was here last night, and I was here the night before yesterday."

Tianying sneered: "I'm just here to keep an eye on when this old man will hand over the big seal, or if the big seal is too important, I'll catch someone else."

Pang Gan sat at the table, his face was pale, and his eyes were filled with fear.

The imperial physician was only in the palace to deliver messages between the imperial master's mansion and the empress, how could he have seen such a scene, he dared not make a sound, and shrank aside.

"I never thought...you were the first one to catch it."

Tianying looked Shang Ke up and down, and said sadly: "When you talk to the guards, my people saw it and came to report it to me. I deliberately arrived one step earlier than you, and waited for you first to see you sneaking around late at night. Come here, what are your plans..."

"Tianying." Shang Ke looked at him, "You brought someone into the palace to assassinate without authorization, and you have committed the taboo of the zodiac envoy. Now you must not make the same mistake again."

Tianying sneered: "It's not your turn to teach me a lesson!"

"Even though what happened last night didn't work out, at least he was hurt by an arrow. It's also my credit to report to the lord!"

Tianying stared at Shang Ke: "At least I dare to do it. You have understood one thing over the years? Every time you are asked to kill someone, you push back and forth, or you must first care about the people and win the hearts of the people if you want to become big, and you can't abuse it." You can't seek skin from a tiger if you kill innocent people... Do you think you are Kaifeng Yin, sitting in the lobby with a mirror hanging high?"

"In terms of talent and courage, Kaifeng Yin is a hundred times better than me."

Shang Ke said in a deep voice, "Kaifeng Yin is an old disciple of Yang Ge and a colleague, so you are not allowed to slander him at will."

Tianying's expression was full of sarcasm, she sneered in disdain, swiped the poisonous blade backhand, and landed on the grand master's neck.

Shang Ke frowned, took a step forward, and stopped a poisonous arrow shot at his feet.

"There are more and more people staring at this big seal, and it can no longer be placed in the Grand Master's Mansion."

Tianying said: "Today, if you take this old thing, you have to take it, and if you don't take it, you have to take it. If you can't teach Yan Wangyin, this Grand Master's Mansion will be burned at most."

Tianying exerted force on her hands and looked at Shang Ke: "The Great Seal is my credit, without your share, you don't have to wishful thinking."

Tianying glanced at Pang Gan with a fierce look in his eyes: "As for you..."

Pang Gan was so frightened that his face turned pale, and his heart was broken: "Your envoy is merciful! I hand it over, I will hand it over right away, and I ask your envoy to raise your hand..."

Tianying stared at him coldly, with the dagger pressed against the skin of the Grand Master's neck, walking with him to the bookshelf.

Drenched in cold sweat, Pang Gan stretched out his hand tremblingly, and opened an ornament mechanism on the bookshelf, revealing the brocade box under it.

Shang Ke stared at the situation inside the house, the light in his eyes tightened.

Tianying stares at every drop of water, his plan to defraud the Great Seal has undoubtedly failed.Although Yun Lang has a plan, he still doesn't know the specific details and whether he can cope with the current changes.

Tianying is the master of robbers and thieves, and Tanlang is haunted by ghosts.If this seal really fell into Tianying's hands, looking for it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

If the great seal of Prince Yan's Mansion falls into the hands of anyone with a heart, they can manage to create countless troubles.In the next day, it will repeat the old tricks of Dali Temple, imitating a handwritten letter written by King Yan collaborating with the enemy, and stamping it with a big seal.

Shang Ke clenched his palms in cold sweat, and stood in front of the door, watching Pang Gan take out the big seal, holding it tremblingly and handing it into Tianying's hand.

Yunlang had responded when he came, saying that he had a perfect plan.

Shang Ke has heard Wei Zhun mention several times that General Yun has always been reliable, and he does things safely and thoughtfully.If Yunlang has plans to do something outside, he should also try to deal with it inside...

Before he could finish his thoughts, there was a loud noise outside the window.

"what happened?!"

Just as Tianying took the seal in her hands, she turned her head and looked fiercely, and was about to make a move when she stood there stunned.

Vast white stones of various sizes rumbled through the window and scattered on the ground.

Stones are not rare, but anyone who has some hidden weapons in their hands is used to locust stones.But everyone only takes six or seven with them when they go out, ten or so in the sky, and it is enough to use it as a hidden weapon to attack people.

The situation in front of her was too frightening, Tianying was stunned for a moment at the pebbles bouncing all over the ground, before she had time to react, her vision suddenly went dark.

In a blink of an eye, Tianying raised her head in a flash, stepped back, and the heavy wind was already chasing her in front of her.

Tianying hastily copied the dagger for defense, the sharp and poisonous blade cut through the cloth wrapped outside, unexpectedly it was another rain of migratory locusts with heavy internal energy.

Tian Ying couldn't open his eyes from the locust stone being hit, and his body burst into pain: "Who is it?!"

Even if he entered the palace to assassinate, he had never encountered such aggrieved time. He gritted his teeth and jumped into a rage: "Do it! Catch this locust stone seller for me! There is a big reward..."

Before the words were finished, a bright knife light passed through Shi Yu, slamming towards him like lightning.

The most idle guard's waist knife came too fast, making ear-piercing explosions.

Tianying's neck almost caused Li Feng to cut out the pain, he raised the dagger to block it, and firmly protected the deadly part of his throat with both hands.

He was busy protecting himself, he lacked strength in his hand, he felt a sudden lightness in his right hand.

Tianying's heart went cold, and she rushed to the window, rushing past the sharp killing intent that seemed to have not dissipated.

The right hand is empty, and the big seal that has just been obtained has been cut off like this.
