Sentiment

Chapter 15: Knowing the truth

Although the emperor's body has recovered, the hidden weapon seems to have left him with a lot of sequelae, coupled with his deteriorating body, in short, the emperor is getting older faster, and his body is not as good as before.In order to stabilize the court situation, the emperor appointed Xian Wang Xiao Yunchong as the crown prince, and then Xiao Yunchong moved from Xian Wang's mansion to the Prince's East Palace.

And the emperor seemed to know his own situation, and began to deal with the alien faction in the court. The remaining adult princes were granted fiefdoms in a short period of time, and then asked them to bring the whole government to the fiefdoms as quickly as possible.The emperor's actions seemed to leave Xiao Yunchong at peace, at least on the surface.

Could it be the land of kings within the four seas, so Xiao Yunrui also knew the news.The place that was vaguely incomprehensible also became clear after Xiao Yunchong took the position of prince.All things have only one result in the end, and who is the ultimate beneficiary of this result, then the previous things are likely to be done by that person.Xiao Yunrui has never placed the target of suspicion on the emperor, because the emperor has always looked gentle and indifferent to the world, but the current result made him doubt him.Eliminating the impossible, what remains is possible even the most improbable.

Now that there is a target, it is much easier to find it, and it is no longer like looking for a headless chicken before.Xiao Yunrui gave an order to only investigate all the matters related to the prince, from birth to the present, every detail must be investigated one by one clearly.In fact, Xiao Yunrui still had a little luck in his heart, he hoped that all this was a coincidence.

Because of something hidden in his heart, Xiao Yunrui suffered from insomnia all night long, and often stood facing the window for a whole night, and he also refused to take any soothing decoction, as if this could make him remember these shames.The room was not lit, only the bright moon outside the window was used as an embellishment, casting a faint halo on the whole room.The fragrance of flowers wafted in the air, Xiao Yunrui took a deep breath, as if his entire lungs were alive, but his longing for that person was even more bone-wrenching.

At this moment, under the background of the moonlight, a black figure slowly approached, but Xiao Yunrui did not panic in the slightest. When the man came to the window, he directly knelt down and saluted Xiao Yunrui, "Master, Yun Po is in trouble, is it right?" Immediate support?" Yun Po, also a member of the dark guards, was disguised as Xiao Yunrui and left in that dilapidated private house because his figure resembled Xiao Yunrui by [-]% to confuse the enemy's sight. .

Xiao Yunrui took out an exquisite golden mask from behind to cover his handsome face, and jumped out of the window without saying a word. The dark guard naturally understood what his master meant, took out a whistle from his waist, and blew lightly. The whistle was not sharp and long, but a little hoarse. It was not obvious in the dark night, but soon, many black-clothed dark guards floated out from all over the courtyard.Xiao Yunrui led these people straight to where Yun Po was.

The straight-line distance between Qingsha Island and Qianhu Island is very short, but the sea area in that area is full of hidden reefs. If you want to go from Qingsha Island to Qianhu Island, you have to borrow the nearby Luozhou Island. It takes a circle to reach the destination.But the people around Xiao Yunrui were all martial arts masters, so wading through the water was not a problem for them.

Three hours later, they finally arrived at Qianhu Island. Fortunately, there were many people around Yun Po, otherwise Yun Po would not have been able to wait for them to come to rescue.Although one's own team was injured, the other party was not much better.It's just that there are a lot of people here this time, and they are all highly skilled in martial arts. It seems that they are ready to kill.Fortunately, Yun Po and the others were not weak, so they persisted until they brought someone to rescue them.Xiao Yunrui drew his sword and rushed directly into the black-clothed crowd, completely reckless. Seeing this, the other dark guards hurriedly jumped into the battle group.

The place Xiao Yunrui passed by can be described as corpses strewn across the field, killing those men in black was as merciless as chopping vegetables and firewood.He needs a bloodbath to calm the resentment in his heart, he needs a killing to vent his unwillingness, otherwise, if he suppresses it for a long time, he is afraid that he will go crazy, and now he has such a good opportunity, naturally he will not let it go.

Xiao Yunrui had a great time killing, but the man in black complained endlessly. Who is this man in white brocade clothes and a golden mask?Could it be that after King Fei Duan arrived here, he was taken under the wing of this man and protected?However, they had arranged people to monitor this place along the way, and no one noticed the appearance of this man who looked like a dark god.The long black hair is flying, and someone will fall down with a flick of his wide sleeves. The sharp sword in his hand is full of sword moves, killing people with every move, and seeing blood with every move, but his brocade clothes are not stained with any blood, which makes their hearts feel unreasonable. of fear.

The killing was still going on, and Xiao Yunrui didn't think about getting useful information from these people. Dark guards and dead soldiers would usually bite the capsules in their mouths when they knew there was no way out. poison.Xiao Yunrui, the leader of these black-clothed men, saw it at a glance, so he deliberately sold a flaw on the other side, so that the other party could escape by chance, and then winked at a few hidden guards, who nodded to show that they understood, and then there was The five followed the fleeing man in black.But the remaining men in black were not so lucky, Xiao Yunrui executed them all on the spot with a single order.

The long night came to an end amidst the slaughter, and when the last man in black was slaughtered, Xiao Yunrui ordered people to bury those corpses on the spot.Xiao Yunrui just faced the east and looked at the red skyline, and when the dark guard came back to report that everything had been arranged, what he saw was Xiao Yunrui standing with his hands behind his back, his long black hair fluttering gently with the sea breeze, the newborn scorching sun Coated him with a layer of gold powder phosphorescence, as if he had fallen into the mortal world.

The escaped man in black is Xiao Yunchong's dark guard leader Feiying.The dark guard followed Feiying, not too far or too close, so that he wouldn't lose track and let the other party find out.It's just that the hidden guard found that this person had no fixed running direction at all, and even changed his clothes several times in the middle. If it weren't for the large number of them, they might have been lost.In this way, from May to August in midsummer, everyone followed the flying eagle who changed into black again to Wangcheng.Of course, the man continued to circle in the royal city, as if he was familiar with his movements like this often.But no matter how he erased the traces, he would always report to his master.They don't have many other things but they have a lot of time. The master said that they must find the person behind the scenes.

So, on this windy and dark night with no moonlight, he finally jumped out from the small courtyard where he was hiding but went straight to Xiao Yunxuan's house.Just after he went in, two of the pursuers behind him also followed, but because they were not familiar with Chengwang's mansion, they got lost inside.When they were circling around Chengwang Mansion, Flying Eagle jumped out of the wall from the other side.Fortunately, there were several people guarding outside, one of them was staring at the place where Feiying had just entered, while the others scattered.Flying Eagle's luck was really bad, the place where he escaped happened to be ambushed by a pursuer, but he didn't notice it at all.

Feiying now walked towards the Prince's East Palace with great peace of mind, followed by the people behind him like ghosts.Although they are not familiar with the Prince's Mansion, they are not as unfamiliar as Cheng Wang's Mansion, so this time, those who followed Feiying around the Prince's Mansion did not lose him, but came to the Prince's study half an hour later .The door opened directly, as if it was waiting for the eagle to enter.The dark guards went directly to the roof, sticking to the tiles seemed to hide the whole person in the darkness. Among other things, these dark guards are the top existence in the entire Xiao Kingdom in terms of lightness skills and breath-holding skills alone. .Therefore, it is so close that unless someone sees it with the naked eye, it is absolutely impossible to find it.

The voice below heard every word in the ears of the dark guard, but the content of the discussion made him more and more frightened. It turned out that all this was like this. Fortunately, their master trusted the prince so much, but he didn't expect the prince to be behind Stabbed the master so hard.Sure enough, the Tian family has no father and son, let alone they are only half brothers.

When the inside became quiet, the dark guard turned and left, and soon disappeared into the moonless night without a trace.The dark guard went straight to Cheng Wang's mansion, and the other five people waited here quietly. After seeing each other, they didn't have any extra words, they just nodded slightly, so they turned their bodies around.This time, I left the city in the dark.Of course, it was impossible for them to fly directly to Qingsha Island with light work like this. Instead, they rode a few horses at the station outside the city, and then headed south all the way.

It took nearly four months to finally find the mastermind behind the scenes, but it took only more than half a month to return to the South China Sea because of traveling day and night and choosing a small road.The secret guard went to Xiao Yunrui's yard overnight, and sure enough, the master was drinking wine against the moon under the window again.

Wearing a black brocade robe and a cloak embroidered with dark patterns of the same color, Xiao Yunrui stood in front of the window. The moon was rare today, and the wine glass in his hand exuded a faint fragrance of osmanthus. Elegant, even if you drink it, it won't get on your head.Now he needs a clear mind, thinking about the materials Yang Qing handed over yesterday, he drank the fine wine in the glass, but his brows frowned even tighter.

Xiao Yunrui fell into a rage, and he didn't even know that the dark guard had entered the room, but the dark guard endured the dark clouds above his head and spoke first, "I will see my master!"

"Huh?" Xiao Yunrui was at a loss for a moment with his back turned to the dark guard. He was even a little afraid of hearing the answer the dark guard gave him, but the dark guard obviously couldn't help it anymore, and lowered his head with a sense of righteous indignation. Said, "Back to the master, the assassin that day was arranged by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
