Narada world

Chapter 3 Fighting wits and courage

Surrounded by shallow mountains, gurgling streams, the mass graves twenty miles east of the city are deserted, dead trees are barren, and everything is withered.

After a quick evacuation, Ye Ming and others brought the four death row prisoners here.Every time the action starts and ends, the location will change. The killer's natural vigilance and sensitivity make them act cautiously.

Ye Ming's arm was bleeding from the sword wound, but she didn't feel any pain. There were already countless sword wounds on her body, and her tolerance to pain was so high that she was numb.

"Head, let me wrap your wound."

Mo Feng was worried, because of his negligence, Ye Ming blocked the sword for him.It is said that Shura is like hell, and killers are cold-blooded, but in his opinion, Ye Ming is the warmest leader.

"No problem." After she finished speaking, she tore off the cloth from the corner of her clothes and bound up the wound casually.

After a while, Hongyuan arrived here.The four death row inmates had disheveled hair and fuzzy faces. The shock after the torture made them speechless, and they just looked at them in fear.

In this situation, it is impossible to get information, and it is impossible to know how much the Queen has found out.

"The queen's methods are really extraordinary. She has been tortured like this, and she still has to bear the pain of dying." Mo Feng said angrily.

Ye Ming cast a glance at him, "If she is so easy to deal with, it still takes us so much trouble."

Hong Yuan remained silent the whole time, watching the few people with cold eyes, thoughtful.She opened a person's coat, and the criss-cross wounds were like disordered thorns. The blood had already solidified, and the healed scars were torn apart again. The flesh and blood were mixed together, festering and disgusting.

It was shocking.

Hong Yuan caressed her nose, turned around calmly, and turned her back to the four of them.

"Lord, how to arrange them?" Mo Feng asked.

"kill!"

What an indifferent and ruthless word, it is clear that Siyue Fangfei makes people feel chilling.At that moment just now, Mo Feng actually thought that she felt compassion for her because the Chinese were being abused so much.

Before he could make a move, Ye Ming's sharp sword was out of its sheath, a cold light passed, the sword had returned to its sheath, and the four of them fell down one after another.

Ye Ming's swordsmanship was astonishingly fast, and he killed four people with just one move.

"Lord, why did you kill your countrymen?"

"Shut up! The landlord has his own reasons for doing things, you and I will obey." Ye Ming stopped at him, and Mo Feng could only hold his hands tightly, burying his doubts and dissatisfaction in his heart.

Hong Yuan has a long shadow, she turns around slightly, her eyes are as deep as the sea, making it difficult for people to see and guess clearly.

"Today's mission, which brothers died?"

"Back to the main building, the four brothers are from the bank, the cloth shop, the inn and the market."

"Immediately issue an emergency evacuation order, and all twelve action points will be evacuated. They will be gathered in the underground palace first, and then resettled."

"Your subordinates obey." After finishing speaking, Mo Feng took out the signal light from his arms and fired it into the air. A long, silent smoke rose into the air and quickly dissipated.

The entire Jidu, with the Suyuan building as the core, also has twelve operation points, which are lurking in the scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and pretend to be different roles to make a living in different industries.In addition, in Jidu and even in the whole world, Shuramen have a huge information network, which can easily grasp the information they need.

The seasons change, and the years add up. There will be one person observing the signal day and night throughout the year, in case of emergency and in case of emergency.

"I hope to be one step faster than her."

After leaving these words, Hongyuan left here.

With a feeling of resentment, Mo Feng sprinkled the bone powder on the corpse, and the four of them were quickly reduced to ashes. He specially worshiped the four of them.

Ye Ming found that not only Mo Feng was dissatisfied, but the others were also downcast.They are willing to work hard for the country. No one is born a cold-blooded killer, but they will not spare even their own people, which is inevitably disappointing.

"You know why the landlord killed them."

"Half-dead, without information, it is useless to keep it."

Ye Ming shook his head.

Mo Feng's eyes lit up, and he looked at the others, "What do you mean?"

"When did we receive the news of the palace spy's incident?"

"Ten days ago, the door owner sent a message saying that there has been no news for two days."

"So they were tortured at least seven days ago. Although the wounds of the few people just tried their best to fake, they can still be found in the subtleties. They were injured in the past few days."

"So they are not from Yu Kingdom??" Mo Feng was startled, he murmured in disbelief, "This is the queen's move to lure the snake out of the hole..."

"More than that, the few brothers we sacrificed may also affect other action points. I hope everything is still in time."

"Did the landlord already guess that the parade of death row prisoners is a game, but still let the brothers go to die?"

"If you don't do this, how can you find out how much the queen knows? If you don't know yourself or the enemy, how will the landlord implement the palace entry plan that the sect master explained! Mo Feng, the landlord doesn't like to explain things, and neither do I. Acting according to our emotions, if there is no wise and decisive host, we will die faster and worse." Ye Ming's words were sharp, and Mo Feng and others were ashamed with a few words.

Several people immediately knelt down and bowed to Ye Ming, "From now on, my subordinates will only obey orders without asking questions, thank you for your guidance."

"Subordinates too."

Just as Hong Yuan expected, less than half an hour after the evacuation signal was issued, the capital patrol began a blanket search.Although the twelve operation points had been evacuated as soon as possible, two points were still taken into prison as suspects.

A total of 18 people were arrested in this large-scale search operation, and the leader is still the emperor's confidant.

Because apart from him, no one can identify who should be arrested and where to start, and no one can guess the mind of the emperor.If she hadn't been by her side for many years, Li Ruo might not have known about it.

Qin Tiansi, the capital of Ji, was established for the people to redress their grievances and to protect the royal law of the imperial city.Director Qi Xuan is an upright and loyal minister, and most of the suspects were imprisoned in the Qintian Prison this time.Xuantie's poor family is guarded by heavy soldiers, and many of them have been wronged, but because they believe that Mr. Qi is upright, they are not afraid of being wronged and imprisoned.

After detaining the prisoner, Li Ruo came to the autopsy room again to search for clues on the corpse.

"My lord, I'm really stupid." Qi Xuan always didn't understand what the empress meant.

"Director Qi wanted to ask why these innocent people were arrested?"

"Exactly, the emperor's mandate is to shoulder the peace of the people of Jidu. I am really worried that this time will cause panic."

"My lord, you have been solving cases for many years, but you can see that these killers are strange?"

"The autopsy performed by Wu showed that the skeletons of these men were novel and their muscles were firm. They were obviously martial arts practitioners."

"You and I see things with our own eyes. Her Majesty the Queen didn't come in person, but she broke people with her heart. She told the servants a word, so that I can see it."

"What?"

"The truth is often hidden in places that are easy to ignore. So I re-examined every part of the corpse and found that they all have a characteristic that is not obvious but can determine their identity."

"Please advise from adults."

Li Ruo lifted the white cloth of the first corpse, and the killer was stabbed several times and died.Li Ruo raised his palm, "My lord, you can hear it."

Qi Xuan stepped forward, and there was a familiar smell in the palm of the deceased, but he still didn't understand the reason.

"If you look at his index finger and thumb again, the calluses are thick and the skin is yellow. I always thought it was some kind of weapon, but I couldn't match it."

"So..." Qi Xuan suddenly realized, "Since these killers can walk freely in Jidu, they must have identities to cover them. These unknown characteristics actually represent their hidden identities."

"After my observation, only those who have been in touch with banknotes for many years and use an abacus to keep accounts can have such characteristics. If I guess correctly, this person should be the treasurer of a certain bank."

"It's really a good opinion from adults."

"The interrogation will be handed over to Director Qi, and the next official will return to the palace."

"Leave the adults slowly."

After Li Ruo left, Qi Xuan stroked his beard and thought about it. He was so confused after judging the case arbitrarily for many years, but he was really in a dilemma, and it was hard to guess what the emperor was thinking.

Whether she wanted to kill others as an example, or she would rather kill by mistake than let them go.The most unpredictable king's heart, Qi Xuan can only take one step at a time.

As night falls, the Suyuan Building is full of singing and dancing, romantic literati write inscriptions, poets drink tea and play games, talented scholars and beautiful women embrace each other, drunks and idiots couple with each other.Behind the hustle and bustle is the boundless night, and the Suyuan Building has lost its splendor, but it is still the Shura Gate that cannot see the light of day.

There were a total of 36 people at the twelve action points, and only 30 people arrived in time. In just a few days, the Shura Gate had already lost more than a dozen killers.In this confrontation that has not yet started, Suyuanlou is already at a disadvantage, but in order to lure the Queen to meet at Suyuanlou, Hong Yuan has long expected that such a day will come.

Everything is just the beginning, and all actions in the future, including her own, may arouse the empress' doubts.

"Lord, now twelve o'clock has been destroyed, and other places are also under surveillance by Qin Tiansi. Suyuan Building has been under the surveillance of the capital patrol team. The Queen really forced us to have nowhere to hide."

Hong Yuan's eyes were slightly closed, her face was gloomy, being chased by the queen one after another, she was really passive.This game she lost, she will get it back in another way.

"The soldiers are divided into three groups, one is to resettle the Suyuan Building, the other is to retreat to the refugee slum, and the third is to carry out a mission."

Hong Yuan made a decisive decision and issued an order calmly.

"Please tell the landlord."

"Leaded by Ye Ming, they will rob and kill Luo Guo's tribute to the capital of Jidu fifty kilometers away."

"To rob tribute silver?" Ye Ming was puzzled.

"I want you to just rob the silver and not kill people, disguise yourself as robbers, and finish it quickly. Then throw part of the silver into the refugee camp, the other part to the dignitaries in the court, and the rest... hmph, to the regular customers of Suyuan Building."

"The landlord is trying to create chaos in Jidu."

"Yes, I want to take her into the army, and also bet on whether she will come to me..."

On that day, the gate of the capital of Ji was full of dust, and 100 million taels of tribute silver from Luo State, fifty miles away, was robbed.Someone in the dignified Ji Dynasty dared to rob the tribute silver, and the escort officer immediately sent someone to the palace to report the news.

That night, broken silver suddenly fell from the sky in the refugee huts outside the city, giving the famine-stricken people instant hope that at least they would not have to go hungry for several months.

On the other side, the high-ranking and noble sons who often walked to the Suyuan building had their cash in the treasury secretly stolen.

From the commanding heights of Suyuan Building, one can overlook everything in Jidu, and even look at the distant imperial city.The irises are in full bloom, as gorgeous as she is, Hong Yuan looks at the imperial city with blurred eyes, remembering the encounter that day.

Even though all that was her intentional arrangement, something unexpected happened.

The queen is twenty-four this year, and she has not been married for 12 years. There are rumors that she likes women, but she has never seen anyone she falls in love with.After working hard for many years, only the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the Ji Dynasty is becoming stronger and stronger.

Although she is a king, she is still a woman after all, Hongyuan can't get rid of the graceful figure in her mind, she can't combine that person with her identity no matter what.She is obviously a gentle and virtuous woman, but she is a king with power over the world.
