Assassin A

The small tea farmer happily embarked on the road of visiting relatives with gifts presented by the palace.Pu Shao has been sending people out of the southern region, and then he rushed back to the palace with a fast horse, full of dust.

study.

King Qingnan put down the scroll: "May I ask where his sister lives in the capital?"

Pu Shao bowed his body and replied: "I have asked, and I sent two people to follow secretly." After a pause, he continued: "The slave thinks the prince is worrying too much. Daniel...can't be a spy."

Rong Min smiled, but did not answer.

The current emperor fears that the Rong clan will dominate the southern region and pay heavy taxes year after year.If there is a slight movement here, officials or spies will be sent overtly and covertly over there, which will not allow him to be on guard all the time if he is not careful.

Rong Min thought: the south is no better than the north, the northern border has been invaded by the Liu Kingdom all the year round, and that idiot King Zhubei is determined to guard the country for the surnamed Li.My southern region is rich and peaceful, and some people are greedy!The world belongs to their family, and they still refuse to give up?

Cai Ting, the counselor sitting at the bottom, looked carefully at the paper in his hand, and said, "The handwriting doesn't look like a disguise. People who write small script, no matter how hard they try to cheat, you can still see clues between the strokes, but be careful No mistake."

Pu Shao glanced over quickly, and it was the name that the prince asked Daniel to write down as a joke that day.Crooked and crooked, each word is bigger than the last.

Rong Min nodded: "This is the best." He stopped talking, picked up the book that had been put down, and began to study it quietly.

Pu Shao heaved a sigh of relief.

Cai Ting winked at the head of the bodyguard who was like a pile, and the two of them bowed to the meditating prince and bid farewell.

The palace garden is surrounded by emerald greens, and the delicate flowers are slightly swaying in the wind, colorful.

In the corridor, Cai Ting and Pu Shao walked side by side.

"Guard Pu, it has been concluded that Shen Yufeng belongs to the third prince, but I have repeatedly interrogated him in the past two days, and I have confirmed that he has only seen the list but never written it. It can be inferred from this that there must be traitors in the mansion. There are no outsiders, you have to be careful."

He said lightly stroking his beard and muttering: "The third prince belongs to the prince's party. If he sends someone to spy, King Geng will definitely take action. But his Xuanji camp assassin has not yet shown up, so he needs to be more cautious than usual with the people in the mansion. It's several times."

Pu Shao has always respected the confidant of the prince, and immediately became serious after hearing this: "Yes, remember the master's order!"

Cai Ting twirled his beard and thought about it again, then suddenly smiled and said: "Then An Daniu is very good at making the prince happy, if the person sent to visit him will return the same, this person should be invited back as soon as possible."

Pu Shao also smiled and said: "Sir, what you said is true. The people who went to the tea village have already inquired carefully, and Daniu's family background is very ordinary. He is also the benefactor of the prince. He is usually silly and simple, and everyone in the house likes it. "

Just as he was talking, he saw Mr. Lin and Mr. Xu walking towards him with flowers in their hands and a small tea tray in the distance.

Cai Ting and Pu Shao immediately hid in the corridor and waited for them to pass by.

Lin Mengqing greeted him with a smile, and said absent-mindedly: "Your lord is studying?" Without waiting for an answer, she chatted and laughed softly with Mr. Xu and left.

Pu Shao frowned and glanced disdainfully at the backs of the two young masters, and snorted.

Cai Ting tapped him on the shoulder with his fan: "It's just the prince's tricks, don't worry about them. Without these handsome young masters, how could those rich and powerful with ulterior motives miss the great opportunity to marry our prince?"

Although Pu Shao is a martial artist, his mind is not that dull.He and Cui Cui had already guessed the clue a long time ago, but they just felt that it was too embarrassing for his prince to spoil his reputation like this.

Gritting his teeth, he said in a low voice, "These people don't know themselves!"

Cai Ting shook his head, "You can't keep those who are smart, and you can't keep those who are not greedy. Since the prince became an adult, there are so many young masters in the mansion, after all, there are such two wonderful flowers! Back then, I laughed at Gu Nanshan who had such a bad idea. I didn't expect He really hit the spot. There are two sons who are willing to discriminate between male and female, and they are domineering all day long. Outsiders only think that the prince is... tsk!"

"Two? Isn't there a few more in the West Court?"

Cai Ting smiled: "My lord is not willing to really do anything to them. Those in the west courtyard are just pretending to make up for it. These two are the only ones who are really determined. You follow the lord all day long, so you should pay more attention to these people. Although They are all from good backgrounds..."

Pu Shao raised his eyebrows in disapproval.

What is there to pay attention to?On weekdays, he would read poems and play a tune, a bunch of trash who would turn pale with fright at the sight of a mouse!

Well, it's better to be a big cow.

This brother suits his taste.They can eat together, have fun together, and have a pleasant temper.

I don't know where he is now?I'm afraid it's time to go to the boundary of Fengzhou?

Fengzhou City.

The car stopped in front of an inn, and turned to greet the sleeping guests in the car.

Daniel woke up sleepily and stretched himself.Rubbing his eyes, even though the journey was bumpy, he was a rough man and slept soundly.

I jumped out of the car and stretched my muscles, raised my head and said word by word: "Xian... guest... come."

"Hey~~ Guest officer, please! Are you staying or playing top?"

Daniu was taken aback by this enthusiastic little girl, "Live, stay, eat first."

"Okay~~ How many are you?"

"One. No, two, open one for the big brother who drives the car."

"Okay~~ Would you like a jug of wine? The journey is exhausting, a drink will wrap you up."

Daniel scratched his head in embarrassment, "I've never drank wine from outside, I brewed rice wine for myself."

Xiao Er seemed to see that this was a deceitful trickster, and he drooled: "What is rice wine? The best wine in Fengzhou is in our shop. You can't miss it when you pass by."

Chirp, quack, quack, buy and sell by force, with the attitude that you can't do without drinking.

Daniel had never seen this market before, so he was immediately embarrassed.I didn't want the second child to suddenly "Ouch! Ouch!" shouted, clutching his calf and jumping around on the spot: "What's wrong? It's a cramp for no reason!"

Thanks to his cramps, Daniel went into the store smoothly, went back to the house, put down his burden and went downstairs to eat some food.

The best thing is that the "aggressive" waiter didn't show up again, and an honest one was replaced.

Daniel invites you to eat with the handlebar style.

This big brother has been traveling all the year round, so he can be regarded as a well-informed man.Hearing that Daniel had never left the Southern Region, he eloquently talked about the scenery along the way and the characteristics of each state.

Have a good meal.The handlebar style thought of this guest's kindness in his heart, gave him food and sleep, and immediately patted his buttocks to tidy up the carriage and horses when he was full of wine and food, so as not to cause awkwardness on the road tomorrow.

Daniel told him not to work too late and be careful to be tired before going back to his room.

After entering the house, he stood still, leaning against the door and hanging his head.

After a cup of hot tea, and the sound of two very light footsteps gradually leaving, An Daniu slowly raised his eyes.

The dull and honest expression was gone, and he scanned the room alertly, "Still coming out?"

As soon as the words fell, two people jumped down from the beam.One is slightly taller and gentle.A delicate and slender, cynical.

Raising eyebrows: "Why are you two here? Something happened?"

The corner of Gao's mouth was smiling, if it wasn't for this assassin outfit, he would be a scholar in a robe.

"Master Li saw that you didn't come back for a long time, and specially sent Thirty'er over here to see if there is anything that needs to be answered. I have a job to do here, so I came with him along the way."

"Is there anything that can make you make a special trip?"

That delicate young man was called Thirty'er, and said with a light smile, "Isn't that right, I'm also curious about what made us leave Prince Xiao's mansion on the first day of junior high school."

This tall young man is called Chuyi, and his identity to the outside world is the attendant of the Xiaoshizi of Xiaowangfu in the capital. He is staring at Da Niu at this time, and asked nonchalantly: "Fifteen, how is your work?"

The former An Daniu took a look at him, took out a slender folder from the boot pocket, and handed it over: "I have two tails sent by the King of Qingnan behind me, please send this peony back to Lord Li for me." .”

Thirty'er pursed her lips and whistled lightly: "Peony?"

Fifteen smiled, "So I can't leave it to you." Turning around, he said to the first day of the first day of the junior high school, "I did your work on the way, so hurry back to Beijing. Tell Sister Hong, I will go to her place first when I arrive. Her name is An Daniu, she is my own sister An Xiaohong, and my fourth brother acts as my brother-in-law, her name is Chen Ah Si."

He also briefly talked about his life experience compiled in the palace.

The first day of junior high school listened carefully and nodded.Shaking open the folder and taking a look, the palm-sized peony is gorgeous and plump.

When closing time was about to close, two young men who were too drunk walked out of the inn staggeringly with their shoulders on their shoulders.You pushed and shoved each other at the door, yelling that we would meet again some other day, and then we went our separate ways.

Fifteen sat quietly in the guest room where the candles were extinguished, with his hands spread flat on the table.

When the sound of "Boom, Boom, Boom" sounded outside the window, it was three o'clock.

Fifteen moved slowly and methodically took off his outer shirt, and took out a small flat but heavy cloth roll from the bundle Shishier left for him on the table.

Unfolding, by the faint moonlight outside the window, a row of throwing knives glowing with a faint cold light, an almost invisible fine steel chain, a pair of gloves with soft leather, and a silver hairpin with no pattern on the whole body.

Brothers, I haven't seen you for a few months, how are you doing?

Pick up a throwing knife and scrape lightly with your thumb, it is still sharp.

A smile appeared on Fifteen's lips.

The wooden hairpin on the head was replaced by a silver hairpin, and the flying knife was also hidden under the night clothes.Tighten the belt and leggings, arrange the cuff buttons at the collar, and finally pick up the mask cloth at the bottom of the bag, with the faint picture of the Big Dipper on the corner.

The rumors are chanted in Zhongyan, and the Shangchao is Xuanji.

Fifteen cleverly avoided the patrolling courtyard, and with a thin throwing knife, he ended the master bodyguard that the family paid a lot of money to guard the door of the bedroom.

Lifting his foot and hooking it, the limp corpse slowly fell down along his legs, without a sound.Withdrawing the hidden weapon stuck in the man's neck, he shook his left hand, shaking off the blood beads.

Also holding a knife in his left hand, he lightly lifts the door latch.

It turned out that he was left-handed.

The man lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, didn't know that disaster was imminent.

Fifteen took out the gloves from his arms, put them on slowly, and silently walked towards the "job" this time.

While waving his hands, the man's throat was strangled by the fine steel chain, his eyes widened in vain, and he let out a muffled whine. When he saw the last scene, he saw a pair of indifferent eyes, and a piece of cloth corners shaking slightly in front of him—— Xuanji map.

Fifteen raised his hand and gently stroked the man's face, closing his eyelids for him.

There was a sound of deliberately lowered footsteps outside the room, and there were three people coming.

One guards, two break the door.

"Song Henian! Today is the day of your death!" The visitor let out a low voice, and rushed towards the sleeping person on the bed with a sharp knife in his hand.In the panic, I didn't notice why the man stood upright and made no sound at all.

A knife stabbed straight into the heart, and then a knife was inserted into the stomach.

"Second brother, wipe his neck quickly, let's go!" The partner who came with him urged in a low voice.

The assailant with the knife stabbed him twice before giving up.

A long sigh: "Get rid of this person and I will see the sun in Fengzhou!"

The wind outside the door whispered: "A dog is coming, hurry up!" Unfortunately, one of them tripped and fell in the courtyard when he was evacuating.

Fifteen turned over from the beam and jumped down, looking at the bloody man who was stabbed, he shook his head.How much injustice did this person have to do?He actually died twice in a short while.

He took another look at the knife wound on the dead man's neck, frowned, and acted like a fool!But no matter what, the traces of his strangulation were all covered up.

He moved his ears and turned his head. On the window sill, a thin figure was leaning crookedly, chuckling: "How? It's not bad for me to find this scapegoat, right?"

Thirty.

Fifteen ignored it, only one word: "Let's go."

When the nurse rushed in, the two figures had already climbed over the courtyard wall with ease.

All the way to a certain alley through the shadows.

Thirty'er grabbed Fifteen's arm: "You haven't said yet, is the scapegoat I found a good one?"

Seeing that Fifteen Yi turned his eyes and left him with two huge whites, he was even more reluctant, pushing and shoving him back and forth: "Say it! Say it! Say it!"

Fifteen: "Wonderful."

"Really? Really? Really? Really?"

Fifteen: "Really." The hand pinching his arm was finally released.Even though he is the assassin of Xuanji Camp, the black cloud of unlucky guy still hangs over his head.

When will Thirty'er remember not to use his hands when playing around with him?Just now he was shaking wildly, if it wasn't for his strength to resist, it would be a surprise that his arm would not be dislocated if it was someone else.

Quietly returned to the inn, took off his clothes.

Carefully put away his things, Shiwu slowly lay down on the bed, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

When he woke up the next day, he was An Daniu again, a humble little tea farmer in the southern region tea town.Putting on the blunt demeanor of a countryman, he called the elder brother on the handlebars to have breakfast together, and with a smirk, he let the innkeeper double his rent.

Profiteer!This money is enough to buy two catties of pork.

It's hard to pretend to be stupid~

He got into the carriage and listened attentively.The people from Qingnan Palace also followed. It seems that they are going to follow all the way to the capital, right?King Qingnan is really treacherous.

But there are indeed many masters in his house.The last time he visited the study of the Wangfu at night, he blamed Shen Yufeng by the way. It really took him a lot of effort to avoid the eyes of these guards.

He straightened his legs and leaned comfortably against the carriage.According to this speed, it will take at least ten days to arrive in the capital, which can be regarded as his reward for this job.

Is it leisure!

Suddenly a smile appeared on his lips.

A tea farmer who has been squatting in the tea village for three months has received another knife...but it is still a good deal to get a hundred taels of gold.Moreover, the food in Qingnan Palace is very delicious.
