Your Highness asked me to pay him back his honor

The Grand Master's Mansion was in a mess, and several places had faintly seen flames.

Tianying pushed open the broken window, and the wind swept into the courtyard outside the window.

The dead soldiers of Xiangyang Prince's Mansion rushed out from all directions, and the whole mansion hunted down the seal thieves who smuggled migrating locust stones.The torches, lanterns and white phosphorous flint together set off a dazzling light, illuminating the entire Grand Master's Mansion brightly, reflecting shadows moving around.

Shang Ke stood in front of the door, his chest and back were soaked in the air-conditioning in the night, and he weighed heavily on his mind.

When Tianying came to India, she would never fail to make thorough preparations.

There are only a lot more people ambushing in the Grand Master's Mansion than the assassins in the palace, and all of them are the most elite assassins who are hidden deep in the Xiangyang Palace.Tianying is the most cold and overcast murderous thief, Tanlang, who knows best how to bite and pull people fiercely, swallowing all the bones and never dying.

The besieged people in the house were impenetrable, and it was impossible to escape with their wings.No matter how thorough Yun Lang's plan was, he could only go so far as to grab the seal, and he couldn't get out of it anyway.

Tianying had already chased him out, and now he offered to help, his identity would inevitably be exposed.But once he seized the seal and failed to walk, Yunlang fell into Tianying's hands, and he could not save his life.

Shang Ke's eyes were scorching, and when he could hardly bear to step forward, he suddenly felt a slight pressure on his shoulder, stopping him back to where he was.

An ordinary saber followed and lay across his neck.

Pang Gan was so shocked that he sat on the ground just now. At this moment, his eyes widened in astonishment, and he fixedly looked at the man in black who was holding Shang Ke hostage.

Yun Lang held Shang Ke hostage, and smiled at him politely: "Old Master, don't come here without any problems."

Pang Gan's face was pale, he stared at Yun Lang, his lips moved, but he couldn't speak.

"The grand master is good at planning."

Yun Lang said leisurely: "I thought the grand master was just riding on the top of the wall to watch. It turns out that he has already stepped on two boats and planned a retreat for himself."

"Yunlang!" Pang Gan's eyes filled with fear, and hissed, "This is the Grand Master's Mansion, not your Palace of the King of the Underworld. With King Xiang and the Zodiac Envoy here, it is not certain whether you can get out alive today, don't get carried away... "

Yun Lang raised his eyes, and cupped his hands out of the window unhurriedly: "Did you hear clearly?"

Pang Gan's eyes suddenly tightened, he turned his head and stared at the night outside the window: "Who is it?!"

"Students under Shenzhi Zhengshi's school, I invite him to come and witness for me the old master's dedication to serve the country."

Yun Lang said: "Now I've heard everything I need to hear, and I've seen everything I need to see. Just go back and help me report to the political advisor."

Yun Lang smiled, held Shang Ke hostage with a waist knife in his hand, and said unhurriedly: "It is said that the grand master has really worked hard for the emperor. Not only did he put his heart and soul into the imperial hospital, but he also worked hard with him. King Xiang's zodiac envoys have worked hard and painstakingly, even giving away the most important seal of our family..."

Yun Lang raised his eyes and landed on Pang Gan, with a thin icy smile in his eyes: "The supervising army from the Pang family must be extremely reliable, and it is most suitable to follow us to fight in northern Xinjiang."

Pang Gan's face turned pale and blue, with cold sweat running down his forehead, he rushed to the window with the sound of shouting and hunting, and looked out as hard as he could.

What Yun Lang said was ironic, and Pang Gan couldn't even understand this.

At this stage of the court, the emperor no longer has half a trustworthy person in his eyes. The Grand Master's Mansion seems to be a little favored, but in fact it has long since become a rootless apple.

In the selection of concubines in the harem, the position of empress has begun to waver, and the two princes have the tendency to be pushed out of Beijing.Now that the Grand Master's Mansion is in Wende Hall, even if he can barely speak a few words, he no longer has the qualification to be good at one word.

If there is really someone who is in ambush in the mansion and knows about government affairs, and hears the secret deal between him and King Xiang's Zodiac Envoy, and relays the report to the emperor...

Pang Gan's face was terribly ugly, and he poked his neck out of the window to look around, but he couldn't see half of the figure.

Pang Gan turned around and stared at Yun Lang, his eyes were dark: "You lied to me?!"

"The conscience of heaven and earth." Yun Lang raised his empty hand, "I can bet with the Grand Master."

The corners of Pang Gan's eyes twitched slightly, but he was still holding on to himself: "What are you betting on?"

"Just bet that in the Grand Master's mansion, there really is a proud student who knows political affairs, watching the Grand Master with his own eyes and listening to what the Grand Master is doing."

Yun Langzhao scanned around in the study room, and slowly said: "Your roof is a testimony, if I win..."

"If you win."

After all, Pang Gan couldn't bear this possibility, staring at Yun Lang's calm expression, his voice became hoarse: "If you are willing to expose what happened today, the old man will take a step back."

"Yan Wang had an affair with the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, and secretly exchanged death row prisoners. There is also a handwritten letter of evidence."

Pang Gan said in a hoarse voice: "The old man can use the excuse that King Xiang seized the seal, and hand over the handwritten letter of King Yan as evidence to you. Then go back to the emperor, and only say that the old man's nephew suddenly became seriously ill and couldn't join the army—— "

Yun Lang shook his head: "No gambling."

The old flesh on Pang Gan's face twitched slightly, his face completely lost color, and he barely stood up straight: "Why don't you gamble?"

"It doesn't matter whether you give the handwriting or not. Originally, I planned to burn down your study."

Yun Lang didn't take it seriously: "Now you have personally admitted that you have an affair with King Xiang, and I have captured this person as evidence, and sent it to Shenzhi Zhengshi and forwarded it to the emperor. Your nephew even used a sudden heavy Illness, so you can't fight with the army?"

There was a chill behind Pang Gan: "Then what exactly do you want?"

"It's not a big deal."

Yun Lang said: "The two of us have a long way to go, and we can't take care of the court. If we want to insert someone into the political affairs hall, we have to rely on the grand master to deal with it."

"The political affairs hall is subordinate to the political affairs counselor."

Pang Gan said hoarsely: "Since Master Yun can mobilize people who are in charge of political affairs, it is enough to just talk about this matter, why come to the old man..."

Before he finished speaking, a locust stone shot past his ears.

The stone is cold, and the wind has just passed by, and a hot and sharp pain has been pushed away.

No matter what, Pang Gan never imagined that he still had the locust stone, and he could hardly stand still due to the pain.

Yun Lang said slowly: "Is the grand master really confused, or is he pretending to be confused?"

Pang Gan didn't dare to say another word, he gritted his teeth and bowed his head.

In the current situation in the court, it is not very good to be a political advisor in front of the emperor.Now it's neither an official selection, nor an imperial examination to select a scholar, so if you rashly bring a newcomer to the mansion under your jurisdiction, you will definitely arouse the emperor's suspicion.

But if this person was recommended by him, in the eyes of the emperor, it would be the Taishifu's painstaking efforts to put eyeliner in the political affairs hall for the emperor.

"Master Yun."

Pang Gan stood there for a while, and tried his best to gather some confidence: "The Privy Council has declined, and the Zhengshitang has become the center of the court. If I recommend someone to the Zhengshitang, if there is a disturbance in the court, I will be inseparable from the old man..."

Yun Lang was curious: "Now that things are going on, does the grand master still want to get rid of the relationship?"

Pang Gan moved his lips, and was about to speak, when he met Yun Lang's gaze, he suddenly shuddered severely.

He suddenly understood Yun Lang's intention of asking him to recommend someone to the Political Affairs Hall.

King Xiang sent someone to contact the Taishi Mansion not only because the Taishi Mansion has the important seal of King Yan, but also because the Taishi Mansion has been dealing with the court for many years, and it has countless handles in its hands. Completely involved.

If the dark power of the Grand Master's Mansion is handed over to King Xiang, even if only part of it is handed over, as long as it is controlled properly, it can cause a wave of turmoil in the court that is not weaker than that of the rebels attacking the city.

……

But Yunlang is holding the Zodiac envoy hostage today, blatantly coercing him unreasonably, such a casual sentence completely sealed off this possibility.

If this person is recommended, there will be people from the Taishifu in the Zhengshitang from now on.

King Xiang wanted to cause trouble for the court and secretly stir up troubles. Not only could the Taishi Mansion fail to help, but it also tried its best to stop it and try to stabilize the court situation.Otherwise, in the eyes of the emperor, today's affairs may still be hard to escape from collaborating with the enemy.

Pang Gan's throat moved, his palms were sweating, and he quietly looked out the window.

The clouds cover the moonlight, and in the brightly lit lights, King Xiang and his so-called elite soldiers are still desperately patrolling the missing bandits, but no one notices that the seal thief went out from the window and circled around, and then went back to the study without anyone noticing. .

It's just that no one can be found in the mansion no matter what, no matter how dark the study is, someone has already searched slowly.

Pang Gan suppressed the fear in his heart, stared at the movement outside the window, and secretly hoped that Tianying would lead someone to search here as soon as possible.

If he could warn the police in time, King Xiang might not be able to keep Yun Lang here due to his large number of people.

Even if there was such a person in the mansion who didn't know the truth or the truth, the so-called "student in charge of political affairs" would inevitably be found out under such a sweeping search.

It's better than handing over the Grand Master's Mansion from now on and letting people fiddle with it.

Pang Gan quickly made a decision in his heart, swallowed, and bowed his head: "Yes, yes, I will write a letter of recommendation right now. I would like to trouble General Yun to take a look and see if it suits you..."

Yun Lang raised his eyes, and turned the knife on Shang Ke's neck slightly to the side, watching Pang Gan swipe his brush, and hijacked Shang Ke to walk over step by step.

Stuffing a few people in the court hall is a method used by the Grand Master's House, and it is no more difficult than eating and drinking.Pang Gan hardly used drafts and kept writing, and a letter of recommendation has been written smoothly.

Yun Lang stood by the table, watched him write the last word, put down his pen and ink.

Pang Gan said in a low voice: "Although the letter of recommendation has been written, it still needs to use the seal of the Grand Master's Mansion to be useful...Master Yun held up his precious hand and let the old man take it."

Yun Lang was noncommittal and turned sideways.

Pang Gan took a deep breath, lowered his eyelids, and walked towards the bookshelf.

He walked very slowly, every step seemed to be preoccupied, he walked slowly to the window, and looked back without a trace.

Yun Lang held Shang Ke with one hand, and placed the big seal wrapped in soft brocade on the table casually. He held the recommendation letter in his free hand and was reading it from beginning to end.

Pang Gan's eyes suddenly turned fierce, and he rushed over, hissing: "The pirate is in the study, come quickly!"

He yelled this, and immediately threw himself under the window, letting poisonous needles and hidden weapons chase in from outside the window like rain.

Tianying chased the hidden weapon of the poisonous needle and floated into the window, her eyes fixed on Yun Lang who was holding Shang Ke hostage, with a fierce look seeping out of her sight.

The saber in Yunlang's hand spread out the bright light of the sword, covering his whole body in an airtight manner, knocking down all the hidden weapons.

He finally finished reading the letter of recommendation, turned his blade back to Shang Ke, nodded and raised his eyes: "That's right, please use the grand master's seal."

"Yunlang!" Pang Gan didn't care about the previous embarrassment, he got up on his hands and feet, and laughed coldly, "Are you crazy? Do you think you can escape in such a situation?"

Pang Gan finally flipped the plate violently, and vented his anger: "It's nothing more than a plan to delay the attack! Ask me to use the seal? Make your Spring and Autumn Dream..."

Yun Lang sighed, looked at the letter of recommendation, and nodded: "Okay."

Pang Gan paused, looked at his expression, and frowned.

Yun Lang unwrapped the big seal tightly wrapped in soft brocade, picked it up, took a deep breath, dipped some cinnabar ink pad, and pressed it carefully on the signature of the recommendation.

Pang Gan stared at his movements, a smile suddenly froze on his face.

Tianying suddenly figured it out, looked at Pang Gan, her eyes were horrifying and fierce: "You fooled me with fake seals?!"

"It's not fake either."

Yun Lang kindly explained: "Grand Master Pang just set up a suspicious formation, and put the great seal of his Grand Master's residence in a hidden place. If he was threatened, he would wrap it up in a brocade and hand it over to take advantage of the opportunity."

The people of Yunlang didn't leave empty space, took Shang Ke to the past, picked up the burden skin that was used to smash Tianying, threw the fake big seal of the Taishi Mansion inside, and opened the wooden box with the seal in front of the desk in the study .

In the dark under the lamp, the easier it is to see, the less likely it is to attract attention.

I don't know how many people have come to the Grand Master's Mansion to look for this thing, Guang Tianying alone has been staring at it for an unknown number of days.

No one would have guessed that the great seal of Prince Yan's Mansion, which countless people were staring at, was exchanged with the seal of Taishi Mansion without anyone noticing, and it was always placed on the table of Taishi Mansion.

Tianying watched his movements with a gloomy look in his eyes: "How did you find out?"

"Of course I can find out."

Yun Lang: "I knew right away that although the size and weight are not much different, the lines and edges are not right."

Pang Gan painstakingly set up this situation, thinking that no one would find out, but he didn't want to be easily poked by Yun Lang, his face turned pale: "Impossible...why do you even know this?!"

Yun Lang said: "Because I carved this seal of Prince Yan's Mansion with my own hands."

Pang Gan raised his head in astonishment, and looked at Yun Lang.

Tianying sneered, "Ridiculous!"

Prince Xiang's Mansion had its own description of this seal. Tianying looked at Yun Lang and said sneeringly: "There are rules for the big seals in the palace, you pretend I don't know? The seal of King Yan's Mansion is a white jade with white fat engraved on it. "Major and mighty rivers" seal characters, bright moon cloud pattern, a crack in the right corner, red cinnabar seeped inside..."

Yun Lang said: "That's not cinnabar."

Tianying frowned: "What is that?"

Yun Lang raised his hand, pressed down on the wound on his chest that was stung by the cold, and did not answer, concentrating on luck.

Come to Grand Master's Mansion today, it is impossible to escape calmly.

Yun Lang was already prepared to take risks, no matter what method he took, he would have to fight hard.

It was inconvenient for Shang Ke to make a move, and after a while he was knocked unconscious and stuffed under the table, so he probably wouldn't be involved.

Tianying's subordinates are all assassins, who are the best at assassination, and the night outside is a natural cover.Old Pang Gan called everyone to the study, which actually helped him a lot.

Yun Lang put the two seals away, and was about to use his strength, when he sensed Shang Ke's movement, he pressed him firmly.

Shang Ke frowned, and looked at him.

Yun Lang's expression was still calm, and he slightly shook his head.

Shang Ke had already made up his mind to take a risky shot, regardless of Yunlang's reaction, his arm was pouring strength to shake Yunlang's hold, but the big acupoint on the back of his waist suddenly went numb, and his strength receded like a tide.

Shang Ke looked at Yun Lang with a sharp look in his eyes.

Yun Lang ignored him, closed his eyes quietly, concentrated his inner energy to travel around the sky, held his breath in his dantian and kept on relieving himself.Just as he was about to strike first, he suddenly heard another noise outside the window.

Tianying's expression turned serious: "Who?!"

"Master!"

The guards stumbled and ran in, disgraced, and fell to their knees on the ground: "It's the yamen servant of the Kaifeng mansion, who said that Kaifeng Yin received a report from the royal mansion of Yan, and lost the princess and 880 locust stones. I am very urgent to find them."

The guard swallowed dryly: "I happened to be seen by a passer-by. Someone entered the Grand Master's Mansion carrying a huge burden, and a painter sketched the shape. There are all witnesses, and the Kaifeng Mansion must come in and search. I can't stop it." , they have come in..."

Shang Ke: "..."

Yun Lang: "..."

"Ridiculous!" Tianying gritted her teeth and yelled angrily, "Go and tell them that no one has seen it here, tell them to search elsewhere—"

Before the words were finished, Kaifeng Yin Weizhun had asked the yamen servant to open the way, and pushed open the door of the study.

As the victim of the report, King Yan followed Kaifeng Yin to identify him, and entered the study of the Grand Master's Mansion, lowered his head, and looked quietly at the locust stones rolling around all over the ground.

"There's a lot of stolen goods."

Kaifeng Yin said: "Who brought these locust rocks?"

Yun Lang reported to Shang Ke: "He."

Wei Zhun: "..."

Wei Zhun mingled with these people, did all sorts of ridiculous things, closed his eyes, and made up his mind to fight it out: "...I took it."

"The principal culprit got all the stolen goods, and took them back to Kaifeng Mansion for custody. The rest did not report what they knew, concealed them, and put them in prison pending trial according to the law."

Wei Zhun took the shackles and shackles, personally detained Shang Ke, and handed it over to the yamen servant: "His Royal Highness?"

Xiao Shuo and Wei Zhun nodded their heads in thanks, and asked the soldiers behind him to clean up the stolen locust rocks all over the floor, carried the accidentally lost princess on their shoulders, and left the study of the Grand Master's Mansion.
