Near the Chengtian Gate, the main gate of the imperial city, on the west side of the Thousand Steps Corridor, Beizhen Fusi is entrenched like a fierce tiger. It is adjacent to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and across the street from the Six Departments on the east side. It is located in the core of national power.

When one of his subordinates, Xiao Qi, was ordered to come, Shen Qi of Qianhu was lighting a secret report on the candle, and it was quickly burned to ashes.

There were only two short lines in the secret report: "The injury is not serious. The king of Yu wanted to have sex with him, but he was beaten on the head, and he walked away."

The ashes were crushed into powder between her fingers, Shen Qi breathed in a casual breath, and asked: "Yu Yong's son of the Imperial Supervisor, Yu Cheng's family, did you place a secret whistle?"

Xiao Qi knelt down and replied: "There are two long-term followers, and they have received some benefits from their daily contacts with the West Market."

Shen Qi instructed: "Put on casual clothes, go meet these two secretly, and teach them to steal the master's family's letters and handwriting."

Xiao Qi understood and went according to the order, but after an hour or two, he came back with a stack of papers.

Shen Qi flipped through them one by one, most of them were family letters, and occasionally graffiti on a few pages. When she saw one of the lines "The oblique moon and phoenix well, the waves leaped onto the wall of Zhu Jin", she let out a chilling chuckle: "It's just in the Here it is."

He took a pen and added a "wood" next to the word "珍", and then wrote a report, telling Yu Cheng that he "does not avoid holy taboos, but slanders the emperor", and sent it to Feng Que, the commander of Jinyiwei.

It turns out that Emperor Jinglong's name was Zhu Jinkui, and people at that time avoided taboos.Even if it must be used, there is a shortage of pens, so "Zhu Jinhua" can only be written as "Zhu Jinhua", or it can be replaced by another name "Buddha Sanghua".If you accidentally break a taboo, you will be imprisoned if you are big, and you will be punished if you are small.

Not long after the report came back, it really approved the word "arrest".Shen Qi immediately ordered about twenty rides, galloped to Yu's mansion, took hemp ropes and brought them back in bundles, tied Sanmu, and went straight down to the prison.

Yu Cheng, who was in shackles and chains, lost the brilliance of the children of the aristocratic family, crying "wronged" with tears and tears.

"It's such a big tree, didn't I wrong you?" Shen Qi shook his manuscript, and said solemnly, "It's not just a taboo. 'Wave light leaps up', then the Buddha mulberry flower will fall, and the emperor is Wancheng Your Majesty, the Supreme Being, this is not about slandering the emperor, but what it is! It seems that if you don’t use torture tools, you will not know the majesty of the emperor.”

You must know that Jinyi Prison is famous for its cruelty and cruelty. There are broken spines, hooked backs, skinned skins, gutted intestines... There are no less than dozens of names. Fly, kowtow like pounding garlic.

Shen Qi locked the cell door dismissively, and returned to the hall.

Not long after, Yu Yong, the Secretary of the Imperial College, hurried over even before he could take off his court clothes.

Literary inquisition can be big or small, depending on how the person who handles it handles it. Yu Siye believes that money can turn ghosts, so he wisely brought two large boxes of gold, silver and precious banknotes to redeem his son.

It's a pity that Jinyi Qianhu didn't follow the common sense this time, he didn't accept the money, and he didn't let him go. It was obvious that he wanted to put his son to death.

If it's an ordinary lawsuit, even if it's a life-and-death lawsuit, Yu Siye can still sell favors, trust relationships, and play tricks.But this crime of slandering the king, who dares to touch his hand?If it is stabbed, it will be a death penalty, and it may implicate relatives.

In desperation, the dignified sixth-rank civil servant knelt down and begged for the eagle dog they both feared and despised.

Shen Qi said abruptly: "Once Zhuo Qi dies, the position of sacrificial wine is vacant, shouldn't it be logical for you to be on top as a secretary?"

Yu Yong was shocked: "You, you mean..."

Shen Qi leaned over, and lightly patted his face with the end of the scabbard: "Which is more important, your son's life or your boss's life?"

Yu Yong's voice trembled: "Zhuo Jijiu has given me the grace to know you..."

"That's why your testimony is more powerful when you kill your relatives righteously." Shen Qi smiled, with a bloody look shining like a cold blade, "If you don't do it, some people will rush to do it. Or go home and wait for your son's body to be collected. "

Yu Yong was stunned for a moment, struggling with pain, and finally fell to the ground and cried loudly.

After resting in bed for more than a month, Su Yan's stick injury gradually improved, and his daily activities were no longer seriously affected.The Yunnan medicine sent by King Yu is very effective, and the remaining scars have become lighter, and it will disappear completely after a while.

Wu Ming's injury was much heavier than his, but because of his strong physique and internal strength, he recovered faster than him.After more than ten days, I can get out of bed and walk around, and remove the bandages that are in the way by myself.

It was only then that Su Yan saw clearly that the other party was a young man in his early twenties, with a thin body and not too tall, about 1.7 meters five by visual inspection.The facial features are upright and resolute, but the eyes are cold and dark, like spikes ready to go out in the dark, or like a swamp that boils and then returns to death, making the unhandsome appearance very recognizable.

Wu Ming was taciturn, and except for the night when he was in the same room, he confided the inside story of the assassination to him, he couldn't say five words a day.Eating, taking medicine, meditating, sleeping, daily behavior is regular and boring, just want to heal the injury in the fastest time, killing relatives and enemies with the sword, like a prisoner who has been drawn into a prison by deep-seated hatred.

Su Yan, who was also recovering from his injuries, was bored and couldn't help but want to tease him.

"Are you really a killer? How much does it cost to kill someone, and how did the client contact you?"

"Do your killers have any organization or gang, such as Tsing Yi Building, Ghost Villa..."

"Is there a list of top ten killers in Jianghu? Where do you rank?"

"Is your weapon a sword? There should be a back hand and a hole card, what kind of strange weapon or master's secret technique?"

"Hey, let me just say something! As long as you chat with me for a while every day, the accommodation and medical expenses during this period will be free."

Wu Ming knew that Su Yan was just using him to pass the time and satisfy his curiosity, and he didn't really want to inquire about his means and privacy, and he was also on the side of Feng Anhou's hostility, so he was very tolerant, and didn't draw his sword to shut him up. Mouth.

When I was too entangled, I just said "um, huh" perfunctorily.

Every man has a martial arts dream in his heart, and Su Yan asked dissatisfiedly: "How is your skill, can you teach me some tricks? Just the kind of tricks that don't require internal strength and can hurt the enemy invisible at critical moments..."

Wu Ming said helplessly: "Yes."

"Really?!" Su Yan was overjoyed, "What kind of trick is it, teach me!"

"It's called 'Daydreaming.'"

Su Yan: "..."

Well, a thousand miles can be covered without accumulating a few steps, and he understands the reason why a sword is sharpened from sharpening.With his current body and bones, it is not easy enough for a frail scholar with no hands to restrain himself, to run, do push-ups and pull-ups every day, let's talk about improving his physique first.

Seeing Su Yan's depressed expression, Wu Ming somehow remembered the scene under the peach blossom tree in the courtyard a few days ago.

At that time, he peeped through the sill window and almost drew his sword, but realized that the other party was not an ordinary prodigal son, but the younger brother of the emperor, the current prince.If King Yu was killed, he himself would have nothing to fear, fish like sea birds like forest, the world is so big that there is no way he can hide.But Su Yan is an official in the court, so he is bound to lose his official position and even his life.

Unless Su Yan called for help from him, he would not act on the spot.

If Su Yan wanted to assassinate King Yu afterwards, then he would wait until his revenge was avenged and accept this free business as a repayment for saving his life.

However, Su Yan didn't rely on other people's hands, but only relied on a chessboard in his hand to frighten King Yu away.

This young official has a handsome appearance and exquisite speech, but there is a strong backbone in his body that would rather be broken than destroyed, just like him willingly taking risks in the court to impeach the relatives of the state, it is worthy of admiration - Wu Ming thinks so.

If Su Yan could hear the killer's inner voice at this moment, he would definitely slap the table and shout: Can I not resist in that situation, ah? !He touches me and kisses me!He still wants to sleep with me!I'm so miserable, I've always been a man, my head can be broken and blood can flow, and the chrysanthemum must not fall!

Wu Ming couldn't help being a little worried: If King Yu's evil intentions are not dead, or there are other crazy bees and butterflies coming to attack Su Yan, I don't know how he will deal with it in the future?He... is really too attractive.

"You punch me." Wu Ming said suddenly.

"what?"

"Or come and hug me around the waist."

"... Ah!" Su Yan realized that he was going to teach him a powerful move, so he quickly clenched his right hand and hit the opponent with all his strength.

Wu Ming stretched out his right hand to block his wrist, and kept his left hand under his elbow ready to go out at any time.When Su Yan threw his second punch, his left hand moved forward suddenly, spreading his forearm outward from top to bottom, and his right hand stopped under the left elbow for protection.Immediately, he raised his left knee and kicked his right rib.

In order to avoid his ribs being kicked, Su Yan stepped back subconsciously, while Wu Ming seized the opportunity and quickly kicked him in the crotch with his mandarin duck legs.Fortunately, it was just a demonstration, and the toes barely stopped before his lower body.

At this moment, Su Yan seemed to feel the sharp pain of the broken egg, and the hairs all over his body stood on end. He stepped back a few steps, and almost couldn't help but want to cover his crotch.

"See clearly, this move is called 'Ye Li Zang Hua Yuan Duck Kick', and people without any foundation in martial arts can perform it." Wu Ming withdrew his leg and said coldly, "If you practice it well, one kick can destroy the opponent's descendants Root, and then you run."

Su Yan was speechless: "It's so cruel..."

Wu Ming said: "You have to remember that these two chain legs must be closely connected and cannot be intermittent, otherwise not only will it not work, but you will suffer from it. Practice hard against wooden stakes or tree trunks on weekdays."

Su Yan nodded repeatedly.Although this move is a bit obscene and vicious, and it deviates a bit from the martial arts he imagined, it is still a very practical move.After all, I have a zero foundation, and if I practice well, I can catch the unprepared at critical moments and escape in an emergency.

"Can you teach me another trick?" he asked greedily.

"You can't chew too much." Wu Ming refused bluntly, "I'm going to practice swords, my lord, please do it yourself."

Su Yan was reluctant to leave, and said with a sly smile: "Then you practice, I'll watch from the side, it's okay. Anyway, even if you practice it a hundred or eighty times, I won't be able to learn it, so don't worry about me stealing the teacher. "

Wu Ming lived in his house, but he refused to leave, so he had to acquiesce.

A few more days passed like this.When Su Yanchen got up and went to Wu Ming's room to call him for breakfast, he found that the room was empty, and there was a note left on the desk, with crooked handwriting on it that said "The green mountains will not change, and the green waters will flow forever".

Su Xiaobei couldn't find anyone inside or outside, and complained unwillingly: "This man is so unreasonable! My lord saved his life and took him in to recuperate, but he left without saying goodbye without a word of thanks!"

Su Yan ate breakfast alone, tidied up his official clothes and prepared to enter the palace, and smiled complacently when he heard the words: "Some people don't put their words of thanks on their lips, so don't worry about them."

When Chenshi entered the palace to meet Sheng Xie En, the servant told Su Yan that the emperor was listening to the government at Fengtian Gate.He had no choice but to stand outside the Meridian Gate where he had suffered a torture not long ago, watching the imperial city guards walking up and down boredly. After standing for a long time, the soles of his feet were throbbing.

The two servants hung their heads and sleeves, and hurried out from the side door.Su Yan didn't pay much attention to it, and was buried in the hard soles of his official boots, only to hear someone beside him say in a slow voice: "Master Su, there is an order from above, please follow me."

Su Yan looked up, and saw the two servants standing in front of him. The one who spoke was about fifty years old, a little fat, but an unfamiliar face.He said cautiously: "Eunuch, this refers to..."

The servant smiled obsequiously, "Your Excellency, follow me, you will know."

Su Yan weighed it quickly. Since there was a decree, perhaps the emperor wanted to meet him in private, so he followed.Passing through the verandah gate, turning to the base of the wall, he entered a remote courtyard full of flowers, trees, mountains and rocks. He felt a little strange, and asked the two people in front: "Elder-in-law, can you tell me where you are going?"

The servant who spoke earlier said: "Your Excellency, you don't need to ask any more questions, you will find out soon."

Su Yan suddenly became suspicious, and stopped: "I dare not venture into the forbidden area of ​​the imperial palace. If my father-in-law doesn't make it clear, I'll go back to the Meridian Gate to wait for you."

"I've come here, and I can't turn back." The little servant who had been bowing his head in silence said suddenly.

Su Yan heard that his voice was clear, with a bit of the clearness unique to young people, but it was also unfamiliar. He took a few steps back and said vigilantly: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

The little servant turned slowly, raised his face, and gave him a grin.

Su Yan lost his voice: "Little devil?"

The prince Zhu Helin immediately raised his eyebrows and glared: "You are the brat! If I hear you shouting like that again, I will punish you to run ten laps on the school field!"

Su Yan hurriedly apologized: "Your Highness, Your Highness the Crown Prince, it was a slip of the tongue. I haven't seen you for a long time. How is Your Highness?"

The corners of Zhu Helin's mouth twitched, and it seemed that the circles of his eyes were also red, and he turned his face away and told Cheng Sheng: "Get back first."
