There's something wrong with this assassin

Chapter 250

Yes, who doesn't know Master Xue Ping?

Since the establishment of the Holy Dynasty, Jinyiwei and Dongchang have been behemoths accompanied by imperial power, controlling the entire government and society from top to bottom.

But for a long time, because the leader of Dongchang is the eunuch of Dongchang palm seal, he is the emperor's domestic slave.

Trust in domestic slaves, of course, far exceeds trust in outsiders.

This is also the root cause of the long-term eunuch's power.

For the emperor, the eunuchs who accompanied him to grow up day and night, were infertile, and had no offspring were natural tool people. All their power came from the emperor himself, so of course without the emperor, they would be nothing.

It has been said since ancient times that eunuchs exercise power, but in fact, all the power of eunuchs comes from the emperor. If the emperor does not want eunuchs to exercise power, then eunuchs can't exercise any power.

Even if the tyrannical Nine Thousand Years old, with all the power in the government and the public, all the officials are flattering and flattering, and he is in full swing, when it really needs to be resolved, the emperor only needs to write a small note and hand it out, then the Nine Thousand Years old will also be greeted by the Prime Minister and wait to die.

After all, in the whole world, from ancient times to the present, anyone can be an emperor, men and women can be, but eunuchs cannot be emperors.

What worries the emperor?

This is why since the establishment of the Holy Dynasty, Dongchang has always existed above Jinyiwei.

Without him, it's just because the emperor trusted the eunuch of Dongchang palm seal more than the commander of Jinyiwei.

But there is only one exception.

The exception is Xue Ping.

He is the strongest commander of Jinyiwei in the history of the Holy Dynasty. Since Emperor Lu ascended the throne, he has been the commander of Jinyiwei. Today, Emperor Ludi has been the commander of Jinyiwei for 32 years, and he has been the commander of Jinyiwei for 30 years. The palm print of Dongchang The eunuchs have been changed a few times, but his position has not changed, even though his official position has been rising, from Yanjing Yoududu to Dadudu, and then added to the crown prince and grand teacher, he is really a person. Minister, even the chief assistant of the cabinet, the eunuch who holds the pen in the palace, needs to be respectful and salute when he sees him.

However, such an important official in the court, who was destined to be recorded in the annals of history, died suddenly and suddenly for no reason. Although Emperor Tianlu expressed extreme grief and gave him the most solemn posthumous title of Wumu, but I don't know why , From then on, when everyone left the tea, no one gradually mentioned the Commander-in-Chief of Jinyiwei, so that the names of the commanders who succeeded him gradually stopped attracting attention.

It seems that above the court, this name has gradually become a taboo.

At this time, Xue Ling heard the name from Xue Chong's mouth.

Listening to Sheng Junqian's words, Xue Chong couldn't help lying on the bed with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that people still remember Mr. Xue."

Xue Ling looked at Xue Chong who was pinned down on the bed by Baiduandao, she bit her lip calmly.

I don't know him.

It's not knowing at all.

It doesn't make sense.

At the age of 12, Xue Ling has a hundred households in Jinyiwei, and she can freely come and go to Beizhen Fusi, because she is Xue Ping's only daughter, and she has always been loved like a treasure. .

Of course, since Xue Ping's death, those uncles and uncles who used to come to visit the house in a crowd, after the initial grand funeral, have never seen each other again.

She seemed to have forgotten that Xue Ping and this daughter existed.

Those uncles and uncles who were originally friendly in Jinyiwei looked at her with even more displeasure, as if they were seeing disasters and calamities.

But she has never met Xue Chong.

I have never seen Xue Chong before.

But this is not something that can be said right now.

"This is not the reason why you want to kill Taoist Qingyun and Monk Jiu." Xue Ling said quietly.

"Eat the king's salary, and take care of the king's worries." Xue Chong smiled quietly, looking at the sky: "A man dies for a confidant, and a woman is for a man who pleases himself."

"People treat me like a gentleman of the country, and I will repay him as a gentleman of the country."

He said these three sentences again and again, but the meaning was the same.

"I was sent to the Penglai Pavilion by Master Xue when I was ten years old, and I was carefully cultivated, and then I was released from the cabinet at the age of 21. It has been 14 years now. Since the day I left the cabinet, I have secretly joined Jinyiwei and become the most trusted by Master Xue. emissary."

"Later, when I was on a mission here, I heard the news of Master Xue's death from afar."

"I once wanted to go back to the funeral, but because of the special task, I couldn't leave half a step."

"And the changes that happened after that made me doubt Master Xue Ping's death."

"So one day, I found an altar of drunken beauties, and invited the wine monk to drink. I waited until he was half drunk, and then asked, do you know anything about Lord Xue Ping?"

Xue Ling clenched her fists suddenly: "What did he say!"

The girl couldn't control her emotions at that moment.

Xue Chong smiled, and smiled wryly: "He said, you'd better not ask about this matter."

"Who knows who will die."

"I said at the time, what if I want to know?"

"He told me seriously, then I just want to die."

Listening to Xue Chong's words, Xue Ling bit her lips tightly. She didn't continue to press her because she probably already guessed something.

"It must have been killed by a saint." Xue Ling said quietly, she couldn't feel the slightest air-conditioning in her words.

"A saint doesn't need to kill people." Xue Chong said quietly.

"What the wine monk told me at the time was that the adult knew something he shouldn't know and did something he shouldn't do, so he violated the taboo of a saint."

"As for what not to know and what not to do."

"Even Lord Xue Ping, who knows about this, is going to die, let alone those of us who know about it."

Xue Chong looked into Xue Ling's eyes: "That's why I want to kill them."

"Did you do it?" Xue Ling asked.

"Of course I made a move, but I didn't expect that they had prepared against me in advance. Even if I made a move, I was not their opponent. In the end, I used all means to escape desperately and lost a trick."

"It's Qianlongwan, right?" Huo Ying, who had been silent by the side and didn't speak, said quietly at this time.

Xue Chong looked at the woman in white, then nodded: "Yes, Qianlongwan, the girl also knows?"

"It's a blessing that you didn't die." Huo Ying said quietly, and then stopped talking.

"Is that why you continue to live in seclusion in Song County?" Xue Ling asked again.

"Yes." Xue Chong nodded again: "I was knocked down and seriously injured. I was originally such a crippled body. Naturally, I should go far away and hide my name."

"But I was not willing to leave like this, so I stayed in Song County and privately spread the news about the immortality of Baiyun Mountain. Although the news of immortality has been circulated for decades, but only in recent years Only then will I have a better nose and eyes, and I can start to brag about the value of Immortality to martial arts practitioners, and I will secretly select those who are the best in martial arts, and tell them the exact location of Immortality, so as to drive away tigers and wolves. "

"They are entangled by Tian Bulao. Although they know that there are ghosts behind them, I live in seclusion behind the scenes. No one thought that the former Jinyiwei Qianhu, Penglai Pavilion disciples would willingly fall into the ruined temple of Song County and be his beggar leader."

"Da Yin hides in the city, so I'm still safe."

Xue Ling sighed: "So we are also one of the tigers you drove away?"

"Yes and no." Xue Chong said flatly: "You are special."

"Why do you say we are special?" Xue Ling asked again.

"The girl still has the jade pendant I gave you, right?" Xue Chong asked.

Xue Ling suddenly remembered, reached out to take off the jade pendant from her waist, and saw two huge cracks on the warm and simple sapphire.

"This sapphire pendant was given to me by Mr. Xue Ping when I entered the Penglai Pavilion. At that time, he told me that this jade pendant was given to him by an outsider. It's extremely peaceful."

"I didn't think so at the time, it was a young man's heart, but this jade pendant was really delicate and lovely at the time, and I wore it by my side at all times. When I was 14 years old, I was playing in the mountains and fell off the cliff accidentally. At that time, I felt that I would definitely die. , but was rescued by a pine tree, and when I came back to my senses and took out the jade pendant, I found the first crack appeared on it."

"And the second crack was when I had a showdown with Taoist Qingyun Jiu Monk that year. It was really close to death. Even if I finally took the Qianlong pill, I might not be able to escape, but in the end it was a coincidence. By chance, I managed to kill a bloody path, and after evading the pursuit, the second crack appeared on this jade pendant."

"At that time, I was finally sure that this jade pendant is a fetish that can save people from a desperate situation."

"But at that time, I thought I was going to die, so I no longer carried the jade pendant with me, so as not to waste that last chance."

Xue Ling pursed her lips: "Then why did you give it to me?"

"Because you are special." Xue Chong said lightly.

He didn't say why Xue Ling was special.

But after saying so much, Xue Ling actually believed it in his heart, and he knew it.

I don't know who he is.

But he knew who he was, and knew that he didn't know that he knew who he was.

Yes.

That little girl may not have met her father's closest and most trusted subordinate, but how could that subordinate have never met her boss' only daughter.

What he said, he definitely didn't intend to say it to anyone in this world.

But because I killed Taoist Qingyun and Monk Jiu on his behalf, I proved my ability, and proved that the little girl who could only cry at the beginning can finally stand up and do things on her own, and even can do things that even he couldn't do.

So these words are the approval of Xue Ling.

"I have nothing to say." Xue Chong said with a smile.

"You can kill me now."

Xue Ling pursed her lips and said after a while: "Let go of the knife."

Sheng Junqian looked at Xue Ling without moving the knife.

"Don't make me say it a second time." Xue Ling looked at Sheng Junqian and said coldly.

Sheng Jun raised his sword a thousand times and put it down.

Xue Chong regained his freedom.

Xue Ling put the two bottles of blood in front of Xue Chong's bed: "I have fulfilled the agreement."

After saying this, Xue Ling turned around and walked towards the door, then Sheng Junqian closed his knife and followed behind Xue Ling, and then Huo Ying.

The three left the ruined temple, Xue Chong looked at their backs, and looked up at Qinghui outside the door.

Then he laughed to himself.

After laughing, he got up, grabbed the two bottles of blood with one hand, and went to the depths of the ruined temple. Behind the statue of the ruined temple, there was another god tablet dedicated to Xue Pingzhi.

He burnt incense, then poured out two bottles of blood and poured it on the ground, then kowtowed to the god card.

"Master Xue."

He knelt on the ground and said quietly.

"Your daughter no longer needs anyone's protection."

The incense sticks in front of Xue Ping's divine tablet, the fireworks rose straight up.

……

……

Bianliang City is bustling with people coming and going, hawking constantly, and the aroma of wine tricks wafting from the nostrils. On the Qionghua Building in the distance, a group of Yingying and Yanyan are posing on the second floor there.

Fang Bie was walking calmly in the bazaar where he said these words, someone bumped into Fang Bie's arms calmly, and then apologized repeatedly.

Fang Bie looked at him and smiled: "Just be careful when you walk in the future."

The other party nodded again and again, then hurriedly left Fangbie, walked to a clean place, and took out a bulging money bag from his arms with a proud face: "What a fat sheep, let me count today's harvest."

Saying this, he took his hand into it, his expression changed instantly, and he stretched out his hand, only to see a handful of small pebbles picked up by the river inside.

The thief instantly exploded in anger: "Poor ghost! Don't pretend to be poor if you don't have money!"

After saying that, he turned the money bag upside down and emptied it, only to find that there were all kinds of stones in it, not a single piece of silver or copper plate, but the money bag looked pretty delicate, and it would not go empty when holding a thief. Thinking about it, he stuffed the money bag into his pocket angrily.

But when he touched his pocket, the thief jumped up instantly.

"Where's my money!" he cried out.

He hurriedly turned his whole body from top to bottom, and found that the change on his body, as well as the gains from the previous half day, had been stolen without knowing when. He had been stealing for more than ten years, and had never seen Such a battle.

He has always been the one who steals from others, and he has never been stolen from himself.

He stood there racking his brains, but he still couldn't remember when it was stolen.

It wasn't until the end that a flash of inspiration came out.

He remembered the little brother who looked quiet and polite.

He said quietly to him, "Just be careful when you walk in the future."

At that moment, he sat down on the ground and couldn't say a word anymore.

On the other side, Fang Bie, who was still walking on the street seemingly aimlessly, walked to a stall selling candied haws and looked at the various candied haws filled with straw: "How do you sell this candied haws?"

"One penny for two cents, three pennies for five cents." The old man stretched out his hand and gestured to Fang Bie.

Fang Bie smiled, and took out a tattered wallet from his pocket.

"So, if you buy them all, how do you sell them?"
