After nightfall on the second day.

There was a rain at dusk, the rain was not heavy, but it still drenched the ground thoroughly, the courtyard was wet everywhere, and some places still had stagnant water.

At this time, the wind at night was also a little colder than usual. The wind hit the body, and the chill penetrated the clothes and skin, making people shiver uncontrollably.

Yu Wenjin wore a black cloak and sat in the room drinking tea.

He Jin walked into the room and placed a dagger in Yu Wenjin's hand respectfully: "Your Majesty, this is what you want."

Yu Wenjin nodded and took a sip of tea: "Is Zhang Yushi here?"

"Here, he has already entered the palace, and he will come soon."

Yu Wenjin gave a "hmm" and picked up the dagger that He Jin? handed over just now.

He Jin? He hesitated for a while, still? Couldn't help but asked: "Your Majesty, are you really going to do this? This is very dangerous, if..."

"No? If you enter the tiger's lair, how can you get a tiger cub," Yu Wenjin looked carefully at the dagger in his hand, and gently stroked the sharp part of the dagger with his finger: "I have already decided, no? Needless to say, just follow the plan Can."

"……Yes."

He Jin? After walking out of the room, Yu Wenjin got up, walked to the door, and looked at the moonlit sky.

The night is dark and the wind is high, which is a day suitable for doing bad things.

After a while, Zhang Yushi came to Qingfeng Hall, walking in a hurry, still wearing a hooded cloak, covering his face, as if he was afraid of being seen by someone.

When he was in front of Yu Wenjin, he pulled back the hat on his head, and then saluted respectfully: "See Your Majesty."

"Excuse me." Yu Wenjin stood in front of him with his hands behind his back.

Zhang Yushi looked carefully at Yu Wenjin's indifferent face, and guessed what he was thinking at this time, let alone why he summoned himself to Qingfeng Palace so late.

Rest for ten days, Your Majesty? Didn't you mean to see outsiders?Why late at night? Summon yourself?

Zhang Yushi couldn't think of a reason for Yu Wenjin to call him here.On weekdays, he didn't have much communication with Yu Wenjin, but it was just that he occasionally spoke a few words during the morning court.

Yu Wenjin looked him up and down, and a smile gradually appeared on his face: "Zhang Yushi is here, does anyone else know?"

"No, no," Zhang Yushi quickly replied, "Your Majesty summoned me, and I didn't dare to neglect you, so I came right away."

"That's it," Yu Wenjin smiled, "That's Zhang Yushi's hard work."

"Your Majesty is serious, this is the duty of a humble minister."

Yu Wenjin turned around and walked to the table, and picked up the dagger on the table.

Zhang Yushi glanced at it, and took a closer look at it. Inexplicably, he felt that the dagger in Yu Wenjin's hand seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

He squinted his eyes and looked carefully, but before he could see the whole thing, Yu Wenjin turned around first, and stretched out the dagger in his hand in front of him.

Zhang Yushi was taken aback, this time he saw clearly, isn't this his own dagger?I couldn’t find it when I wanted to use it earlier today, and I thought it was stolen by a servant in my family to exchange money, didn’t I think it was at Yu Wenjin’s place?!

When did this dagger fall into the palace?Didn’t it fall during the early morning a few days ago? Did you drop it carefully?

He smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this seems... to be the dagger of my minister. It must have been accidentally dropped. Thank you Your Majesty for finding it for me."

He stretched out his hand to take it, but before his fingers touched the dagger, Yu Wenjin immediately took it back.

Zhang Yushi was puzzled: "Your Majesty, this is..."

Yu Wenjin pulled off the cover of the dagger with a smile on his face, his eyes looked at the dagger blade that shone slightly coldly under the candlelight, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Then he extended the dagger to Zhang Yushi.

Zhang Yushi didn't quite understand Yu Wenjin's meaning, and somehow a feeling of? No? An emerged, so he didn't dare to reach out to take it.

Yu Wenjin walked two steps forward with a smile, and said with a smile: "What's wrong with Zhang Yushi? I found your dagger, and I just want to return it to you. Why don't you? Catch it? Still? I want you to hand it over like this How long will I give you?"

Zhang Yushi frowned, but didn't dare to let Yu Wenjin hold his dagger all the time.

He stretched out his hand cautiously, and when he caught the dagger, he said respectfully, "Thank you, Your Majesty". The dagger then leaned forward.

The sharp dagger slashed at Yu Wenjin's arm in an instant, and the clothes were cut with a "stab", and the dagger blade with a cold light cut Yu Wenjin's left arm.

Blood oozed from the wound, quickly staining Yu Wenjin's clothes red.

Zhang Yushi opened his eyes wide, full of disbelief.

He Jin? He ran into the room immediately and shouted: "Come here, there are assassins! Someone assassinate His Majesty!!"

Yu Wenjin clutched his bleeding arm and leaned against the table with a weak face.

He Jin? Hastily stepped forward to support him.

Zhang Yushi was in a daze, and didn't understand what was going on at all. The dagger he was holding in his hand suddenly let go, and fell to the ground with a "click".

He shook his head, squinted his eyes and hurriedly explained: "No? That's the case, I didn't! Your Majesty... Your Majesty! Please explain, Your Majesty, I didn't assassinate you!"

The guards patrolling outside heard He Jin's call and quickly ran into the Qingfeng Hall.

He Jin? While supporting Yu Wenjin, he pointed at Zhang Yushi and angrily said: "This man assassinated His Majesty in the middle of the night, take him down quickly!"

The guard immediately stepped forward and held his shoulders, forcing him to kneel in front of Yu Wenjin.

"No? That's how it is. It was Your Majesty who called the minister, and the minister did not assassinate him!"

At this moment, all his explanations are pale.

There are witnesses and physical evidence.And the most powerful evidence is Yu Wenjin who was really injured and bleeding.This alone is enough to condemn him.

Seeing that his explanation didn't work, Zhang Yushi probably guessed that Yu Wenjin was deliberately plotting against him in his panic.He raised his head and looked at Yu Wenjin: "Your Majesty, you are the one who schemed against me! When I see the Taiwei tomorrow, will I pay you back? I am innocent!"

Zhang Yushi suddenly struggled hard, the guard was unprepared, he was thrown in the face by his sleeve, and subconsciously closed his eyes.

Zhang Yushi scrambled and ran out of Yu Wenjin's room, and ran towards the gate of Qingfeng Palace.

Yu Wenjin narrowed his eyes, and said in a cold voice, "This man sneaked into the palace late at night with the intention of assassinating me, and his crime should be punished. Kill him."

The guard at the door pulled out the saber at his waist, aimed it at Zhang Yushi's back in a throwing manner, and then threw it hard.

The blade with a little cold light flashed like a white light in the night.

Then, he accurately stabbed Zhang Yushi in the back.Zhang Yushi's body froze immediately, and then fell to the ground.

A guard immediately went over to check on him, checked his breath, and confirmed that he was dead.

He Jin? Hastily supported Yu Wenjin to sit down.He looked down at the place where Yu Wenjin's left arm was still oozing blood, and the oozing blood stained his sleeve red. When he got closer, he could clearly smell the bloody smell coming from his hand.

What's more, I can't help but frown. Although this is a game, but His Majesty is going to attack him? It's too heavy, at least it should be lighter!

There are injuries all over his body, and he hasn't healed, so can't he treat himself a little better? !

He Jin? Sighed: "The slave will go and call the imperial doctor for you."

Yu Wenjin nodded: "Yes."

He Jin? After hurriedly running out of the room, Yu Wenjin raised his head and glanced at the guard standing at the door.Just now, it seems that he threw the saber, and the aim was really good.In such a dark night, how could he succeed in one move.

Yu Wenjin raised his chin in his direction: "You, come here."

The guard was stunned, and hurried over: "I have seen Your Majesty."

When I looked up, I saw the wound on Yu Wenjin's left arm that was still oozing blood, didn't you? You frowned: "Your Majesty's injury is serious, and the bleeding must be stopped immediately, otherwise excessive blood loss may cause serious damage to His Majesty's body."

"Do you know how to stop the bleeding?"

"know a little."

"Then come."

The guard cupped his hands, stepped forward, and squatted halfway beside Yu Wenjin. After checking the wound on his arm, his expression became serious. Wound.

Looking at the deep night in the courtyard, Yu Wenjin suddenly felt sleepy.

He raised his other hand to support his head, closed his eyes, and said in a lazily voice, "Just now you threw the saber with good accuracy, have you practiced it before?"

"The elders in the family like to practice knives, and the subordinates have learned from them since childhood, so they will naturally be better at it."

"What kind of position do you hold in the Forbidden Army Battalion?"

"Returning to His Majesty, the subordinates are ordinary guards who watch the night and have no position."

Yu Wenjin slowly opened his eyes: "No job? With your skill, at least you have to be a lieutenant general or something."

"...Reporting to Your Majesty, this subordinate really has no position."

Yu Wenjin let out a "hmm", looking thoughtful.

Probably remembering something, he asked again: "What's your name?"

"Subordinate Lin Xi, Shuangmu Lin, what a pity."

Yu Wenjin frowned.

As far as Yu Wenjin knows, there is only one family surnamed Lin who is good at knife skills in Kyoto.The old men of the Lin family are all masters of swordsmanship in Kyoto. With the background of the Lin family, how can it be normal that the skills Lin Xi showed just now are just ordinary night guards?

But go back and think about it, now Fang Yuanjing, the commander in charge of the Forbidden Army Battalion, is a member of Taiwei Zou Yue. If Lin Xi and the Lin family were not on the side of Taiwei, naturally they would not be decent in the Forbidden Army Battalion position.

It's a pity for his skill.

The moment Yu Wenjin closed his eyes to rest, a thought suddenly popped up in his mind.Since Lin Xi is not from the Taiwei's side, does that prove that I can accept him as my subordinate?

After all, when he is employing people now, it is really rare to meet someone who is skilled? Not bad, or not? The Taiwei's side.

However, we must be cautious in everything, and we should first investigate and confirm his identity before we speak.

Yu Wenjin said: "You saved me tonight. You deserve a reward for your merit. Go back now, and I will have someone deliver the reward to you tomorrow."

Lin Xi cupped her hands: "Yes, this subordinate is resigning."

Lin Xi quickly left with the guards in the courtyard, and Zhang Yushi's body in the courtyard was naturally taken away by them.

He Jin? He brought the imperial doctor Tan Wen back soon.

Yu Wenjin leaned against the table as if he was about to fall asleep, He Jin? He yawned lazily when he was asked by the imperial doctor Qin Wen to bandage him.

He Jin looked at the bloody wound, frowned, and couldn't help but twitch between his brows.Just how much strength did His Majesty use!It was his own arm! !

The imperial doctor Qin Wen was also surprised, his eyes were full of panic, but he didn't dare to neglect the action of treating the wound with his hands.

After timidly dressing up, Qin Wen explained a few more words, left the Jinchuang medicine for external application, and left.

He Jin? Couldn't help it? He said, "Your Majesty, you were really..."

"He Jin? Ah," Yu Wenjin interrupted him, "Help me investigate a person."

"……who?"

"Lin Xi. Lin Xi from the Lin family who is good at using knives. He is among the bodyguards just now. Check to see if his identity is different."

He Jin was taken aback for a moment: "Does Your Majesty want him to do things for you?"

"Maybe," Yu Wenjin raised his bandaged arm to look at it, and couldn't help but yawned again, drowsy: "I'm sleepy now, I need to go to sleep, you should check it out tomorrow. "

"Yes."
