At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 302
The cottage was burning, and the flames illuminated the surroundings. There were six corpses lying on the messy snow. They were all Feiyuwei with a white feather embroidered on their cloaks. There was still a strong smell of blood in the air.Gongsun Yingxiu stared at the blazing fire with ecstasy, and was lost in thought. The twelve flying feather guards were fan-shaped and stood behind her respectfully.

At this time, there was a burst of footsteps on the snow, and ten men in black holding torches ran over vigorously. Their cloaks were all embroidered with feather symbols. They were obviously all Feiyuwei. The leader was about 24 to [-] years old. , with serious eyes, a high and straight nose, and a very strong figure, walked behind Gongsun Yingxiu and bowed to salute: "This subordinate is incompetent, and failed to stop the landlord and the cold building."

Gongsun Yingxiu shook his head and said: "Xiao Jian, it's not your fault. I underestimated the true strength of the landlord and acted too hastily. This time the mission failed, and the responsibility lies entirely with me. I will personally apologize to the emperor."

All the Feiyu guards present bowed their heads and remained silent. Xiao Jian looked at Gongsun Yingxiu's back standing alone under the firelight, feeling inexplicably heavy. He is a person who is not good at expressing himself. He didn't know how to comfort him at this moment. Alas, The painstaking efforts of the past three years have been wasted, and it must have dealt a great blow to Miss Qing!
The mysterious killer organization Jinghua Shuiyuelou has always been the emperor's thorn in the flesh. For more than ten years, various methods have been tried to eradicate it. Unfortunately, the results have not been great. Except for the [-] killers of the organization, so far no one has been killed. Find out who is behind the scenes, until Miss Qing took over Feiyuwei three years ago, she finally managed to sneak into Jinghuashuiyuelou, and she infiltrated as an envoy of the building, and finally had a chance to get in touch with the landlord himself.

After three years of lurking, I finally waited for the opportunity tonight. I thought I could take down the landlord in one fell swoop while he was injured. Unexpectedly, although this person was injured, his skills were still so terrifying. Fei Yuwei dispatched thirty soldiers The master couldn't stop him, instead he killed six brothers, and even Miss Qing was injured.

Gongsun Yingxiu was silent for a while, and asked: "Have the other two people who assassinated Gao Changqing found out?"

Xiao Jian replied: "One of them is a dead soldier raised by Li Min of the Zhu Kingdom, and the other assassin who uses the three-stone bow is Hou Junji, a disciple of Tang Guogong, there is no intersection between the two, it seems that they came together by chance. "

Gongsun Yingxiu frowned when he heard the words, and thought to himself, this bastard has provoked a lot of people, and he deserves it if he dies, letting you compete with others for women.

Gongsun Yingxiu was very annoyed, but she couldn't help asking: "Can Lu Sanlang participate?"

"For the time being, there is no sign that Lu Sanlang is involved!" Xiao Jian glanced at Gongsun Yingxiu's back after speaking, and continued: "Do you want my subordinates to continue to send people to investigate?"

Gongsun Yingxiu nodded and said: "Continue to check. Now the country is unstable, thieves are rising, and the emperor... only wants to conquer Goguryeo. Some aristocratic families are inevitably ready to move, like Fanyang Lu and Qinghe Cui. Feiyuwei should pay more attention to these giants."

Xiao Jian lowered his eyes and said respectfully: "Your subordinate obeys the order. Do you want to investigate in detail the assassination of Supervisor Gao Mu by Lenglou? It is estimated that someone paid for his life behind the scenes."

"What a disgusting guy!" Gongsun Yingxiu sighed secretly, shook his head and said indifferently: "No need, I know very well about Jinghuashuiyuelou. Let them all be buried!"

Xiao Jian nodded, and ordered people to carry away the bodies of the six Fei Yuwei. Gongsun Yingxiu was about to leave when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a green spot on the snow. The jade pendant couldn't help being moved, picked it up and looked at it carefully, and asked: "Which one of you lost the jade pendant?"

The Feiyuwei guards looked at each other, and finally shook their heads to express that they did not drop it. Xiao Jianxi said: "Could it be the landlord or the cold building? Then this is an important clue."

"It's possible, but it's also possible that the other party deliberately left it to mislead us." Gongsun Yingxiu said calmly, taking out a small cloth bag and carefully packing the jade pendant.

Xiao Jian nodded in agreement. The killer organization of Jinghua Shuiyuelou is so mysterious, and the landlord who is in charge of it has not known his true identity so far. It can be seen that this guy is indeed extremely cunning and he is very cautious in doing things, otherwise he would not raise the court. He couldn't get him out for more than ten years.

"Put out the fire!" Gongsun Yingxiu ordered, turned around and left the woods.

In a courtyard in Ji County, four men in white cloaks bowed their heads and knelt on the ground. An old man with a beard and hair was whipping them hard with a leather whip. But he still didn't dare to make a sound, as if he was numb.

"A bunch of idiots, trash, you can't kill anyone, what's the use of the country's father raising you." The old man scolded and whipped, the whip rained down, and the four people were beaten to pieces. Finally, one of them probably couldn't take it anymore. fainted.

At this time, a middle-aged man in expensive clothes stepped forward and grabbed the old man, persuading him: "Uncle, since the assassination has failed, it is useless even if you kill them all. Forget it, your body is not good if you are exhausted." worth!"

This luxuriously dressed middle-aged man is none other than Zhu Guo Li Min, and the old man with all his beard and hair is Li Hun, Duke of Yi, the grandfather of Li Dalang and Li Yi.

Li Yi died at the mouth of a tiger in the woods by the Liao River. Although Li Fan has not found any evidence to prove that Li Yi was killed intentionally, he also blamed his death on Gao Bufan and Pei Xingyan's intentional exclusion. Trying to intimidate Gao Bufan with his identity outside Linshuo Palace, and even wanted to take Gao Bufan down for interrogation, after all, he was afraid of his honorable identity and did not dare to use force against Gao Bufan.

After that, Li Min became intent on killing Gao Bufan. Recently, Li Hun, Duke of the State of Yi, happened to be in Ji County. After discussing with his nephew and uncle, they immediately decided to send soldiers to kill Gao Bufan. Unfortunately, this assassination The operation failed, and four dead soldiers were caught.

Li Hun threw away his whip, and said bitterly: "I didn't expect that kid surnamed Gao to be so good at martial arts, and he couldn't even kill him. By the way, Hong Er (Li Min's nickname), the corpse was left at the scene. The officials won't find out about us, will they?"

Li Min said disapprovingly: "Uncle, don't worry, these dead men were raised by my nephew since childhood. They are all black households with no names and surnames. What can the officials find out? Even if they really find out about us, they can't help us." What? With our identities, who really dares to investigate?"

Li Hun felt relieved when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice: "Listen to these trash, there was another person who wanted to kill Gao Bufan at that time, and I don't know who did it!"

Li Min said with a smile: "Gao Bufan offended Yu Wenshu and his son just two days ago, probably they sent someone to do it, that's fine, this way we can't be found out, probably Gao Bufan will also First suspect Yu Wenshu and his son."

Li Hun sneered and said, "I didn't expect this old fox, Yu Wenshu, to be deflated. It's retribution!"

"Hey, Yu Wenshu and his son really made a big embarrassment in front of everyone that day, and it's fortunate that you weren't there that day, uncle, otherwise you would have laughed out loud." Li Min gloated.

"It deserves it!" Li Hun snorted coldly.

It is said that although Li Hun is Yu Wenshu's brother-in-law, the relationship between the two is very bad. The reason is that Li Hun was able to inherit the title by relying on Yu Wenshu, but Li Hun failed to fulfill his promise to Yu Wenshu after inheriting the title. Good thing, so the two have turned against each other. Over the years, they have been fighting openly and secretly, and Liang Zi has become deeper and deeper. Naturally, he is happy to see Yu Wenshu suffer.

Next, Li Min drove out several dead men who failed in the assassination, and continued to drink and chat with his uncle Li Hun as if nothing had happened, without worrying at all. Yes, Gao Bufan can't do anything to them, that's why they are so confident.
