Assassin, calm down

Five days later, Rui Palace Royal Study Room.

Bai Chengxiu hid on the beam, closed his eyes, and listened to the familiar man's voice from below: "I just came back this morning, you should go and rest enough, come stay with me again."

The familiar male voice seemed faintly happy, which made Bai Chengxiu feel a little pain in his heart.

Another very steady voice said: "Xiaozhi misses the emperor in his heart, and as soon as he came back, he couldn't help but came to see him."

The familiar male voice is naturally Yan Jinfeng.Yan Jinfeng didn't speak for a while, and said slowly: "I still have some things on hand. You wait by the side first. When I finish my work, then..." Halfway through the speech, he seemed unable to continue.

"Yes." The man agreed without waiting for him to finish speaking.He seemed to sit down, making Bai Chengxiu feel that it was much quieter below, only the sound of drinking tea could be heard.

Soon, Bai Chengxiu heard a very unique crackling sound.He opened his eyes and listened carefully. It was the sound when the special envelope made by himself and Yan Jinfeng was torn open.

The letter was opened, and after a while, was closed again.Bai Chengxiu felt a little nervous, Yan Jinfeng might have read the content of the letter he wrote to him now.

It was even quieter in the imperial study room, only the sound of Yan Jinfeng when he was reviewing the memorial was heard.

After a long time, Yan Jinfeng said: "Commander Ming, this trip with Rong Yang to the Shun Kingdom, encountered the incident of food and grass being burned, and I feel wronged that you were left in the Shun Kingdom."

Mingshun didn't answer, and after a long time, he suddenly said: "Your Majesty, does your Majesty understand the feelings of a humble position towards the Emperor?" There was a touch of despair in his voice.

Bai Chengxiu sat up abruptly.

Yan Jinfeng also seemed to be taken aback for a moment: "You..."

"The next thing, I don't want to think about it for the time being. Now, I just want to see the emperor one last time."

There was a collision of tables and chairs below, and then Yan Jinfeng roared angrily: "You are presumptuous!"

Then, the voice became a little muffled.

Bai Chengxiu felt a little bit hard to get off, and felt a dull pain in his heart, wondering if he should show up.Before he made a decision, he heard that someone below seemed to have punched another person hard, and his voice was very excited: "Mingshun, you traitor!"

It seemed to be quiet for a while down there.Then, Mingshun's steady voice sounded again: "Prime Minister Bai doesn't feel uncomfortable on the beam? Why don't you come down and have a good talk?"

Bai Chengxiu felt that his heart seemed to stop.The beam is very tall, and he is very careful and even breathes very softly, it is impossible for Mingshun to know that he is here.

However, Mingshun knew it.

Bai Chengxiu already vaguely understood what was going on in his heart.He calmed down, and with a thought, he immediately came to the two of them.

Yan Jinfeng's face turned pale.To his death, he never expected that his best friend had been hiding on it, and he might have heard a good show.

Mingshun is tall and heroic, with a very handsome appearance. Bai Chengxiu had met him several times, but he never paid much attention to him, only thinking that he was very low-key.

The first time he really noticed this person was naturally the time when he sacrificed his life to save Yan Jinfeng.

At this moment, his face was full of fatigue, and the corners of his mouth were broken: "I already know what the prime minister wants to say, so I don't need to say any more. I also know the content of the letter you wrote to the emperor."

Bai Chengxiu stared at him: "So, I guessed right."

Mingshun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and smiled slightly: "That's right, I am the San Ren you have been looking for, the No.1 in the organization who controls all activities in Rui Country."

Just as Bai Chengxiu was about to speak, Mingshun said again: "You guessed it right, my special skill is to turn back time."

Bai Chengxiu's excited mood was hard to calm down: "Ten days ago there was a battle on the border..."

"The reason why I knew the location of the energy ball and the phoenix in advance is because things have already happened. I let the time go back to before a stick of incense, and I hit your phoenix with one blow."

Bai Chengxiu turned his head to look at Yan Jinfeng, only to see that his face became even paler.Bai Chengxiu said: "The situation where we are in the imperial study room, I am afraid that Commander Ming has already let it go backwards once."

Mingshun laughed out loud, and the desolate laughter echoed in the quiet imperial study, making people feel very uncomfortable.After a long time, he stopped: "Prime Minister Bai, do you know? My special skills have two limitations."

Bai Chengxiu: "What restriction?"

"The first limitation is that every time I turn back time, I can only return the time to about half an hour ago at most. The second limitation is that every time I turn back time, I cannot go back to an earlier time than the last time I turned back. time."

Yan Jinfeng said: "So..."

Mingshun's voice was very calm, but it made people feel miserable from the bottom of their hearts: "Jinfeng, no matter how I turn back time, I can't go back to before you opened that letter."

He said with a faint smile: "I have tried 32 times."

——————————————————————————————————————

"Jinfeng, I never thought you were very important." After a long time, Mingshun said again, "But, in these 32 replays, I understand that I was wrong."

Bai Chengxiu: "..."

Today, he just wanted to find an opportunity to challenge Yan Jinfeng that Mingshun was a three-blade affair, to tell him to be careful, and to think about it in the long run, but he did not expect it to develop to such a point at all.

Ming Shun said: "Prime Minister Bai, your phoenix is ​​in a palace not far away. Do you know that in the 32 times of reversal, we have confronted every time. In these 32 confrontations, sometimes You won, and sometimes I won. The last time, I killed you and your phoenix. I broke your soul and took his blood, so that you can never be resurrected."

Bai Chengxiu's chest heaved and his face turned pale.

Mingshun's voice was blank: "But, I turned back time again."

He looked at Yan Jinfeng: "During these 32 times, the entire imperial palace was surrounded by ruins and a raging fire. I remember the screams of the maids and eunuchs, the sounds of running for their lives in a hurry, and the begging for mercy."

Yan Jinfeng looked at him, his voice trembling a little: "Now, what do you want to do?"

Mingshun stared at him intently, and said dejectedly, "I don't know. I can't forget the way you looked at me when you killed Bai Chengxiu for the last time, wishing you could kill me."

There was no sound in the imperial study room for a while.

After a long time, Mingshun laughed again: "Jinfeng, do you know that the hunt was really arranged for you to die."

Yan Jinfeng: "..."

"Do you know that I am the emperor of Kingdom Rui organized by the organization. That Yan Jinrui is just our puppet. Once the organization's plan is successful, the world will be reshuffled. I will be the emperor of Kingdom Rui in your place."

Yan Jinfeng: "..."

"However, at the last step, I couldn't do it." Mingshun's voice was still flat, "I watched you being killed, and I felt so sad that I wanted to destroy everything. So, I turned back time. I know The position where those archers were ambushing. So, I protected you."

Yan Jinfeng's eyes seemed to be bright: "Since that time, we..."

Mingshun interrupted him suddenly: "Jinfeng, do you know that some things, no matter how uncomfortable, cannot be reversed?" He suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Yan Jinfeng's neck: "No matter how uncomfortable, I will You kill, you know that?"

Bai Chengxiu immediately grabbed Yan Jinfeng and pulled him aside: "Commander Ming, since you can't turn around, there's no need to talk nonsense, let's carry out No. 30 three times."

——————————————————————————————————————————

A huge black phoenix is ​​flying in the sky, and a fire-breathing beast is roaring on the ground.There were cries for help, shouts, and the sound of fleeing in a hurry, but Yan Jinfeng stood blankly in front of the palace gate, staring at the scene in front of him.

Bai Chengxiu hid in the dark, feeling miserable in his heart. He didn't know whether he could succeed in this contest.Even if Mingshun fails, as long as he has a sliver of consciousness, he can go back to before a stick of incense and start over.

There is really no chance of winning this battle between myself and him.

Few of Liu Guang's energy balls successfully blasted onto Chi Yan Beast.Even the energy ball sent into his body by Bai Chengxiu with the technique of space was easily dodged by it time and time again.

Bai Chengxiu was a little tired.He didn't know whether it was 34 times, 35 times, or No. 30 six times.

In the end how to do?

The difference in abilities between the Four Spirit Beasts and the Chiyan Beast gradually emerged, and the Chiyan Beast gradually became exhausted.Liu Guang's offensive became more and more fierce, avoiding the fire-breathing of the red flame beast at a fast speed.Unexpectedly, the Scarlet Flame Beast suddenly and unexpectedly released a huge fireball in one direction in the air.Then, a group of violent flames swallowed Liu Guang, and the phoenix was burned and fell down again.

This clearly used time to go back in time to determine the position of the streamer in the sky.Bai Chengxiu felt extremely sore in his heart, and was about to transfer the streamer to the outside of the palace with the technique of space, when the beast's fire sprayed towards him.

Bai Chengxiu was in a hurry and couldn't make a decision, so he narrowly avoided the attack, but when he stood still, he saw Mingshun standing in front of the struggling Phoenix, pointing a sword straight at Liu Guang's forehead.

Bai Chengxiu turned pale with shock.If Liu Guang's blood essence was taken out, his life would be over, and there was no one to save him.

Before he could take any action, Bai Chengxiu watched helplessly as Mingshun was pierced by a man with a long sword from behind.

Bai Chengxiu was still dealing with the Scarlet Flame Beast, he was extremely surprised but couldn't walk over to take a closer look.Seeing its master being stabbed, the Scarlet Flame Beast didn't react at all, and continued to attack Bai Chengxiu violently.

That's right, as long as the master is not dead, he can completely turn back time.While waiting sadly, Bai Chengxiu dealt with the red flame beast, but his heart became more and more strange.Why did the man gradually fall down?

Slowly, the Scarlet Flame Beast gradually became smaller, and the flames on its body also disappeared.

Not long after, a naked man fell to the ground, it was Rong Yang who had transformed.

Before Bai Chengxiu had time to be surprised, he teleported in an instant, flew up to him, and slashed his neck with a sword. Rong Yang's ferocious face instantly became distorted, blood sprayed from his neck, and he couldn't say a word anymore. talk.

I'm afraid that when he dies, he won't understand why the master who owns the ability to turn back time will fail.

Bai Chengxiu threw the sword away, and immediately came to Liu Guang's side, hugged the deformed Liu Guang in his arms, and then looked up at Yan Jinfeng who had an indifferent expression in front of him.

Mingshun lay at his feet, his face had already turned pale, and there was a sword stuck in his body.

"Dead?" Bai Chengxiu bent down to check his breath.

"Dead." Yan Jinfeng looked at the person lying on the ground, still expressionless, "I killed it."

——————————————————————————————————————

Half a month later, Rui Palace Royal Study Room.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for eradicating the Three Blades." Bai Chengxiu stood respectfully, beside Liu Guang who had been restored.That day, he didn't even say hello, so he carried Liu Guang to recover, and he didn't return to the capital until today.

"En." Yan Jinfeng corrected the memorial and responded indifferently.

"I still have one thing that I don't understand." Bai Chengxiu thought for a while, then respectfully opened his mouth.

"What's the matter?" Yan Jinfeng continued to read the memorial without looking at him.

"In the end, why didn't Mingshun use the skill of going back in time to turn defeat into victory?"

Yan Jinfeng was quiet for a while, then slowly said: "He told me that he was tired. He kept going back to the past, going through what happened over and over again, just for the final victory. He was tired."

"I see. Commander Ming is indeed a poor man." Bai Chengxiu was also silent for a while, and then asked again, "Does he know that the emperor has been suspicious of him for a long time?"

Liu Guang looked at the two of them blankly.

Yan Jinfeng raised his head and didn't speak for a long time, his expression was still indifferent: "Maybe, he knows. So, the last sentence he said to me was not 'I like you', but 'I'm tired'."

Bai Chengxiu laughed: "It's been so many years, so I don't know the emperor very well."

Yan Jinfeng's voice was flat: "Never trust an emperor. He has too many burdens on him. The things you think about are all luxury to him."

Bai Chengxiu sighed: "In this way, the feelings I have had for the emperor for so many years, I am afraid that this minister is just pretending to be sentimental."

Yan Jinfeng stood up abruptly.

"Don't guess my feelings for him." Yan Jinfeng said coldly, "You can't accept my relationship with him."

Bai Chengxiu: "..."

"But the relationship between me and you, you should think about it carefully. It's up to you whether you want to stay in the court." After Yan Jinfeng finished speaking, he continued to deal with business affairs indifferently.

Bai Chengxiu: "..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will take my leave." Bai Chengxiu pulled Liu Guang on the ground, bowed three times and kowtowed nine times and left.

——————————————————————————————————————

"The emperor began to doubt Commander Ming a long time ago?" As soon as he left the palace gate, Liu Guang couldn't help pulling Bai Chengxiu's arm, "How do you know?"

"The emperor once mentioned a word to me a long time ago." Bai Chengxiu held Liu Guang's hand with a tired expression, "Ming Shun is hardly noticeable among the crowd."

Liu Guang waited.

"No, I just mentioned this one."

"Ah?" Liu Guang couldn't close his mouth a little bit, "Just that one sentence, you said that the emperor doubted him?"

"That's right, such an unobtrusive person, who is the emperor, actually noticed it." Bai Chengxiu looked a little sad.

After a while, he suddenly said: "Liu Guang, I feel tired too, you said, let's go back to the mountains and forests, okay?"

Liu Guang nodded: "I will go wherever you go." After thinking for a while, he said again: "The emperor has noticed him, and it may not necessarily be because of suspicion, maybe because of goodwill."

"That's right." Bai Chengxiu laughed, "Who says you're stupid? I think you're very smart."

"Uh……"

"After you say that, I feel a little more energetic. Otherwise, I will still be my prime minister, and you will be in my glory and enjoy the glory and wealth."

Liu Guang nodded: "I will go wherever you go."

"Why are you so uninitiated. This is fine, that's fine, but I'm still a bit stupid..."

"Xiuxiu, I suddenly want to go back to Shun Kingdom to find Brother Huang..."

"What did you say? Say it again?!" Bai Chengxiu hurriedly caught up with the man who started to trot, "It's against you! Fuck you tonight..."

"Why? I'm just homesick." Liu Guang hugged his head aggrievedly.Why is he angry again?
