Assassin Yin

[Any action must have a reasonable reason] 02

After experiencing what happened to the couple, his view on the matter of "chivalry and righteousness" is no longer the same as before.

"...The people who are suffering, Zhan, Zhan can save them for a while, but how can he protect them to live and work in peace and happiness forever?" Zhan Zhao's eyes became longer and longer, and the summer night was extraordinarily quiet. , besides the sound of his talking, it was the chirping of cicadas that came from not far away.

Bai Yutang also lay down on the roof like him, and casually raised his legs, saying: "...So, you would rather bear the ridicule of the people in the Jianghu...and throw yourself into this unfathomable officialdom."

"I never told Brother Bai that it was so tragic." Zhan Zhao smiled softly, and said, "This problem seems to be a curse, and it always troubles me... Thinking of the poor couple who died tragically, sometimes I couldn't sleep at night until...until I met Mr. Bao."

After a long pause, he said again: "He said...the evil officials who oppress the people can never be eradicated only by the chivalrous men of the rivers and lakes. This is a bottom-up move. If we want to solve... Relying on a top-down system with strict rules and strict supervision is the best policy."

"He means..." Bai Yutang narrowed his eyes and said, "...if you want to change the evil of this official, you need to devote yourself to it and use your internal strength to change it, instead of...just relying on the righteous deeds of a knight-errant .”

Zhan Zhao nodded and said: "...Master Bao's words were like thunder, making Zhan feel like he just woke up from a dream. Thinking that he could express such an opinion, he decided to follow him to the death and protect the safety of the people... Keep the hall of Kaifeng mansion clean and just."

——The light revealed in his always clear eyes, why does it always show this person's exquisite and penetrating chivalrous heart.Everyone on the rivers and lakes only knows that the Nanxia Zhan Zhao, who was famous all over the world in the past, has now lost his strength of character and has become a court eagle dog... But how do you know that he is upright and would rather be shamed by the heroes of the world than firmly pursue his own heart? the right path.

Bai Yutang couldn't help being moved, and sighed: "It turns out that those who laugh at you... are the biggest idiots."

Hearing this, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Bai, do you remember that when you and I first met..."

"Oh, I remember." Bai Yutang rolled his eyes and interrupted Zhan Zhao's words, "But I dare to admit, Fifth Master, that I did ridicule you when I was young... I'm just saying it now. But it is so stupid. So, cat, are you satisfied?"

This Chinchilla Bai Yutang loves face the most on weekdays, and he doesn't want others to say that he is anything but.To be able to say such words in front of Zhan Zhao tonight, it can be seen that he admires Zhan Zhao in his heart.Zhan Zhao naturally understood Bai Yutang's thoughts, so he stretched out his hand to pat him to express how moved he was.

"You said what you said today," Bai Yutang said again, "...that is to tell me that this little Ah Yin, although you love her so much in your heart, you must never show mercy to her outside the law. Neither?"

The topic seems to have returned to a heavy place all of a sudden, Zhan Zhao was silent for a while, and said softly: "... If Zhan is only for the love of his children, how can he be worthy of his own heart... how should he be worthy of his heart, this Kaifeng city people."

There was a bit of bitterness in his tone, but Bai Yutang didn't seem to understand, and asked even more sharply: "Then let me ask you, if Mr. Bao is really on little Ah Yin...to find out the past... The murder case came, and she was sentenced to the guillotine, what should you do?"

Zhan Zhao closed his eyes in pain and stopped speaking.

As if knowing what he was thinking, Bai Yutang sighed, "...by then, if you can let her escape...then you are not the Zhan Zhao I know."

"So what about me..." Zhan Zhao said awkwardly, "If there is such a day...what about me, I can let her go."

"Brother, I can only advise you now, 'Where is there no grass in the end of the world'."

After all, he seemed to have thought of something, and asked Zhan Zhao, "How are the casualties tonight?"

"Thirteen yamen servants were injured," Zhan Zhao's eyes darkened.He said, "There are three more... Tomorrow morning, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu will go to the coffin shop to buy three high-quality coffins, and give the three of them an honorable burial."

Bai Yutang frowned, and asked again: "What about the assassins?"

"The killer... except for the six who died under your and my subordinates...the rest of them all committed suicide by taking poison."

"Oh?" He narrowed his eyes dangerously, and said with a sneer, "So, the organization that little Ah Yin belongs to is... really a terrifying organization."

Zhan Zhao's eyes were also dark, and he said, "...No matter how terrifying it is, Zhan will definitely uproot it!"

"Okay!" Bai Yutang laughed, "Fifth Master, I also have the same intention. When the matter between Miss Min and the prince is settled, you and I will go straight to the lair of this organization and tell him to dare to act recklessly in Kaifeng Mansion." kill!"

——There is always a strange temperament in him, which can make Zhan Zhao's gloomy heart suddenly brighten up.

Zhan Zhao was silent for a moment, then seemed to think of something suddenly, and said, "Miss Min...should be arriving soon."

"It's time to arrive in the next two days," Bai Yutang continued, "...At that time, there should be another meeting together with this prison robbery, to interrogate this little Yin."

"...I'm afraid, it's going to be like this."

The two of them spent the whole night chatting on the roof like this. During this period, Bai Yutang felt that sitting and chatting like this was really too boring, so he dragged Zhan Zhao together to mess around again, and went to a restaurant not far from here. Stealing wine to drink - Of course, Zhan Zhao would not allow Bai Yutang to steal someone's wine for nothing, so he put double the amount of wine money on the counter.

It's just a night of nonsense, and the summer always dawns earlier.They didn't sleep all night, but the two of them felt more and more refreshed. Zhan Zhao's eyes didn't show the slightest signs of drunkenness. He went back to his room and changed into clothes that didn't smell of alcohol. The official in red.

Although the dead knot hidden in his heart has not been untied... But on the surface, he is still as usual.If he is not a careful person, he would not be able to detect the faint melancholy between his brows.

After two days like this, Amin, the late Concubine Lan's younger sister, finally rushed to Kaifeng Mansion under the escort of Lu Fang from the Xingkong Island.

I saw that her complexion was still pale as if she had just recovered from a serious illness, but her delicate eyebrows and eyes were full of eagerness.As soon as he arrived in Kaifeng Mansion, he couldn't bear his longing, and went straight to see the prince.Seeing that the prince was well, she breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly asked: "I heard that Mr. Zhan and Fifth Master Bai... caught the person who tried to poison the prince?"

... This is really true, which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted.

Bai Yutang coughed dryly, and said, "...that's right, it's just..."

Before he finished his speech, Amin hastily interrupted him, shouting: "Where is that man now?!"

Bai Yutang shrugged and said, "...in the prison."

"Then what are you waiting for?" Amin frowned, "Hurry up...quickly ask her to name the person behind the scenes, so that Xiaobao and I can be less worried."

Bai Yutang frowned and said, "...the mastermind behind the scenes? It is true that someone bought you and the crown prince to kill, but at that time Tu Shan was ordered to hunt down and kill you two, and the assassin was probably related to Tu Shan. Now that Tu Shan is in Beijing, The Holy Majesty has also taken back his order to welcome the crown prince back to the palace, so where did the people behind the scenes come from?"

However, Lu Fang took the first step, and said seriously: "... Miss Min and I also know, but this road comes from the empty island... but there are endless murderous intentions. The Holy One has already taken back his order, so the continuous assassins and killers along the way ...Who sent it? This matter—I'm afraid it has never been that simple."

Bai Yutang's eyes jumped, and he said coldly, "...is there such a thing?"

Zhan Zhao stood at the side and hadn't spoken since the very beginning. Hearing this, he frowned and said, "...from what Master Lu said, there is indeed something strange about this matter."

Amin said again: "That's why I'm so anxious... All the assassins I met on this road committed suicide by taking poison. The only survivor we have now... is the assassin in the prison."

Bai Yutang smiled wryly, but said: "...It's just that it's very difficult to get something out of her mouth."

A Minqi said: "...Could it be that she also refuses to say anything?"

Seeing Bai Yutang's irresistible blinking, Amin felt a surge of anger again, thinking about the days he and the prince had spent these days, he said a little impatiently: "...no, she is...she is the only way to That's the clue of the person behind the scenes, no matter what...Master Zhan, you, no matter what, you have to ask something!"

After all, she looked straight at Zhan Zhao with her beautiful eyes, as if eager to see his statement.
