mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 255

Petty theft was already too exciting for Nabeshima Itoko.

When Mao walked forward in a dark corner with her back bent, she always felt that the guard's sight was like a fan's searchlight, which would cover her at any time.It was also like a net woven by a huge fear, which would catch her in one go.

So she was trembling all over.

Zhao Chuanxin, who was holding her hand in front of her, turned his head and smiled at her if he felt something, "Don't be afraid, we will kill if we are found. Even if we can't kill, it is still easy to escape."

In fact, making Zhao Chuanxin so cautious already shows that this environment is not as he said, where he can escape calmly.

Because there is only one solitary building in the Shizuo Temple, and there are only tree canopies on both sides that are taller than the Shizuo Temple.

If it is really discovered, Zhao Chuanxin will let Nabeshima Itoko see what it means to be ruthless, and he will abandon her immediately.

Fortunately, the two of them survived without any danger and made their way around smoothly.

In this kind of guarded place, there are usually only guards at the entrance of the front hall, and there is absolutely no one behind.

Nabeshima Itoko had to follow Zhao Chuanxin's sneaky actions. When she arrived at the place, she squatted on the ground and acted as Zhao Chuanxin's lookout.

Later, Zhao Chuanxin was not so careful.

While he was busy with his work, he asked with a smile, "How about it, isn't it exciting to be with me?"

Nabeshima Itoko gave him a blank look: "Why, do you always say strange things that are misunderstood?"

She felt that what Zhao Chuanxin said was as if the two were having an affair.

Zhao Chuanxin said: "There is no misunderstanding. You see, there is no one around here, except for the two of us. But there is only one wall separated, maybe someone is sleeping. We are sneaking here..."

"Shut up."

Zhao Chuanxin took the elf carving knife and quietly cut open the hinges of the lattice window, taking half of the window first, and then cutting the other half.

Because there are no steps behind the stone hall like the front.

Therefore, Zhao Chuanxin had to work on the concrete and stone foundation with his toes.

Those trembling toes made Nabeshima Itoko feel a little thrilled.

After all, she hadn't seen "Mission Impossible".

Zhao Chuanxin took down the two windows and gently placed them on the ground.

When he jumped down, he inevitably stepped on the crunchy grass and dead branches.The crisp sound made Nabeshima Itoko look around guiltily.

Fortunately, Zhao Chuanxin finished all these without any risk.

In fact, Zhao Chuanxin didn't take it seriously at all. When he went to the bank to withdraw money, he did a lot of this kind of work, and it was nothing at the moment.

After finishing it, he jumped up first, stepped on the window sill, and stretched out his hand: "Give me your hand."

After pulling Nabeshima Itoko up, the two looked around in a daze in the corridor.

Although he got the information that the map should be hidden in the Shizuo Temple, and now he has successfully touched the Shizuo Temple, but the problem is that he can't go from room to room, right?

Nabeshima Itoko looked around and whispered, "The emperor's office is upstairs. I think the study you are looking for should be right next to the office."

Zhao Chuanxin gave a thumbs up: "Sister, you are really a qualified helper."

"Shut up."

The two sneaked upstairs.

Probably because of the late night, I didn't meet any guards, maids and eunuchs.

But after going upstairs, Zhao Chuanxin saw that the door of a room was open, and the light of the lamp was shining through the door, and there was a eunuch at the door.

Nabeshima Yiduzi also saw it, and she whispered: "It's so late, the only one who will stay in Shizuo Temple is the emperor Li Xi of Daehan. Don't mess around."

Just as he was about to speak, Zhao Chuanxin suddenly heard footsteps coming from downstairs.

He hurriedly looked left and right, and saw that a door diagonally opposite was open, so he dragged Nabeshima Itoko boldly through the corridor and slipped into the room.

Nabeshima Ito's heart almost jumped out of his chest, and there was an eunuch standing not far from them. What if this was discovered?
After they slipped into the room, the sound of footsteps went upstairs, whispered to the eunuch at the door, and then entered the room.

Because it was night and the corridor was empty, the sound had the effect of amplifying it.

Zhao Chuanxin heard a voice from that room: "You all back down."

Zhao Chuanxin opened the door a little and looked, and saw the eunuch walking towards him in a hurry.

Zhao Chuanxin hurriedly closed the door, and hid at the door with Nabeshima Itoko.

Most things in the world have their logic behind them. For example, the room Zhao Chuanxin chose, since there is a crack in the door, it means that people often come in and out tonight.

In fact, this room was the place where the eunuchs, who were served by the emperor Li Xiping, had a temporary rest.

When the eunuch pushed the door open, Nabeshima Itoko's head buzzed and he felt his hair stand on end.

It is unknown that patients with heart disease may not be able to stand the stimulation on the spot and fall ill.

Zhao Chuanxin immediately took out the worm silk scarf and threw it forward.

The silk scarf wrapped around the mouth of the eunuch who came in made him unable to speak.

Zhao Chuanxin stepped forward and cut the eunuch's hands backwards.

With big hands, he held the eunuch's slender wrists with one hand, and took out the rope with the other hand.

The eunuch struggled in panic, instinctively wanting to shout, but couldn't open his mouth.

His struggle was ineffective, and Zhao Chuanxin could not move him with only one hand.

Holding the rope for a while, Zhao Chuanxin found it difficult to start, so he passed the rope over: "Sister, you tie it."

Nabeshima Itoko: "..."

Inexplicably became an accomplice.

She was worried that she would be discovered if she made a fuss here for a long time, so she reluctantly took the rope and tied it to the eunuch.

"..." Zhao Chuanxin was speechless: "Sister, can you not tie the bow tie? If the eunuch wants to untie this kind of slip knot, can't he do it with his hands?"

Nabeshima Itoko really had no criminal experience, and blushed: "Oh, re-department."

This time, she hit a dead button, and her hands and feet were quite nimble.

Zhao Chuanxin praised: "You are really very experienced. You recruited from the facts. Do you often play?"

After all, Nabeshima Itoko did not have the rich experience of her juniors, so she was at a loss when she heard the words.

Zhao Chuanxin took out another long rag to replace the worm silk scarf, and tied the eunuch's mouth tightly.

After doing this, he took Nabeshima Itoko and went out quietly.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Chuanxin really escaped. The Japanese bombarded the room where Zhao Chuanxin was, and then wrapped their nose and mouth with a damp cloth and searched inside the hotel, but no one or body was found."

"Are the Japanese troops still surrounding the Seoul Grand Hotel?"

"After the search, they have already dispersed. But because they just dispersed, I didn't dare to act rashly."

"Well, you've done a good job, it's better to be careful. Send someone to wait outside the gate of the big hotel, and wait for the dawn to investigate quietly."

Li Xiangxi said: "Zhao Chuanxin really escaped. It's just that we have to pay a certain price if we want to use him. As far as I know, this person treats money like dung, and I have never heard of him being lustful. I don't know where His Majesty is going to start?"

Zhao Chuanxin could hear the conversation in the office, but he didn't understand it.

It's just that he heard the words "Zhao Chuanxin", so he couldn't be wrong.

He looked at Nabeshima Itoko.

Nabeshima Itoko also shook her head blankly.

Zhao Chuanxin knew that the conversation in the room must be related to him.

The brows couldn't help but raised, really trying to figure out what they said.

At this time, the guard had already left.

Zhao Chuanxin made some calculations in his mind.

There were only three people speaking in the hall.

The eunuch at the door has already been tied up by him.

Besides the guard and Li Xi, the other person must be a civil servant, so it's not a big problem.

Zhao Chuanxin was heartbroken, pulled Nabeshima Itoko behind him, and took out the worm silk scarf again.

As soon as the guard went out, Zhao Chuanxin threw the worm silk scarf to cover the opponent's mouth, and rushed over.

Unexpectedly, this guard is still a practicing family, although he was not disturbed, he jumped up and kicked Zhao Chuanxin in the air.

Known as "Zhao Wudi" and "God of War on the Roof", Captain Zhao, few people know that he is a bunch of rubbish in terms of punches and kicks.

When he was kicked, he didn't show any fancy tricks at all, because he wouldn't.

Instead, he pushed his chest up and endured the kick abruptly.

However, when he kicked him in the chest, Zhao Chuanxin stretched out his hands, grabbed the man's legs tightly, and threw them towards the door frame next to him.

How strong is Zhao Chuanxin?
Just heard a "boom".

The guard's head hit the door frame, and he fell down without a word, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

This time the commotion was a bit louder, only someone in the room shouted: "Who is outside?"

Nabeshima Itoko guessed that the room should be the Korean emperor Li Xi, but Zhao Chuanxin guessed that even if Li Xi was not in the room, it must be a very important person.

So, he dragged Nabeshima Itoko into the house generously.

There were two people in the room, the one in the upper seat, with a goatee, thin and sparse eyebrows, and a large forehead.

Wearing a sky-high crown and a gown with a collar and narrow sleeves.

It is not at all different from the official uniforms of the Qing court, but looks like the costumes of the Ming Dynasty.

But looking at the tuanlong on his chest, he knew his identity.

The person at the bottom is wearing a suit.

When they saw Zhao Chuanxin, they were both taken aback.

Just as he was about to speak, Li Xiangxi saw Nabeshima Itoko behind Zhao Chuanxin again, and asked in surprise, "Princess Li Bengong?"

After all, Mamoru Limoto was an aristocrat, and it was commonplace to hold banquets, receptions and salons.Li Xiangxi met Nabeshima Itoko once at a banquet, and Nabeshima Itoko had a special temperament, so he recognized her at a glance.

He knew Nabeshima Itoko, but Nabeshima Itoko didn't know him.

He glanced at him in surprise.

Zhao Chuanxin pointed with his hand: "I heard you talking about me just now, come on, tell me in front of me, what bad things did you say?"

He speaks Chinese.

However, both of them understood.

In fact, the upper class in South Korea has always been proud of being able to speak Chinese.

Even in the early years, when they carried out the "De-Sinicization Movement", the upper class still went their own way, and those movements were only for the lower class people to see.

Even on the 101st anniversary of the independence of the later generations, when the Declaration of Independence was announced, Chinese was used.

Korean is phonetic and does not have four tones like Chinese. Usually, the meaning of a word can only be guessed by the context, and it is often unclear.

It is not surprising that the emperor and ministers can speak Chinese.

After understanding Zhao Chuanxin's words, the two opened their mouths in surprise.

Li Xi pointed at Zhao Chuanxin with trembling fingers: "You, you, are you Zhao Chuanxin?"

He also wanted to try his best to contact Zhao Chuanxin, but he didn't expect him to come here uninvited.

Li Xiangxi was also surprised: "Zhao Chuanxin? How did you get in?"

After being surprised, I felt shuddering.

This person really has the ability to predict ghosts and gods. If he wants to assassinate them, wouldn't he be able to control them to death?
Nabeshima Itoko found that Zhao Chuanxin, who had been smiling with her all the time, had a complexion like a changing wind and cloud, and it was as cold as frost in an instant.

He took a step forward, showing his murderous intent: "Zhao was asking you something, what did you say bad about me just now?"

Whether it was Li Xiangxi or the emperor Li Xi, they couldn't help but back away in shock.

It seems that what you are facing is not a human being, but a vicious spirit!

Nabeshima Itoko's eyes widened. How could one person's power reach this level?

With just one sentence, the majestic emperor of the empire was scared back?

Li Xiangxi took a step back, thinking of Li Xi's identity, he was ashamed and angry: "Bold, Zhao Chuanxin, do you know who you are talking to?"

Without further ado, Zhao Chuanxin stepped forward to grab Li Xiangxie's collar, and slapped him with his hand.

Snapped!
"Do you fucking know who you're talking to?"

Li Xiangxi was beaten.

Even if Li Wanyong was so arrogant, he didn't dare to slap him in the face.

Only then did he remember that the evil star in front of him didn't care about any emperor or general, even Cixi was forced to jump out of the window by him.

When South Korea was still North Korea, North Korea was just a vassal of the Qing court, and the royal family only dared to be king at that time.Only after the Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-] did they dare to become independent, and only then did the Korean Empire come into existence. It can be said that the title of emperor was obtained through various kneeling and licking. (It’s better to explain roughly, otherwise there will always be people who don’t understand, but the pen and ink will stop here.)
The emperor, who is only a tiny place, seems to really be unable to restrain Zhao Chuanxin.

He murmured: "You, you let me go first."

"Huh!" Zhao Chuanxin snorted coldly, and let him go: "Isn't it the emperor? Put on a few tricks in front of me. Don't make me ask a third time, and Zhao will torture him to extract a confession the third time!"

Li Xi also realized at this time that he was going to form an alliance with Zhao Chuanxin, so there was no need to offend him.

Hastily said: "Mr. Zhao, don't get angry, I, uh, I didn't speak ill of you."

Nabeshima Yiduzi, who was watching the whole time, was stunned, and Zhao Chuanxin forced Li Xi to dare not call himself "Zhen".

Only then did Zhao Chuanxin smile.

Said: "If you don't say bad things, then you say good things?"

Li Xi nodded: "Yes, I said good things. I, I want to say a few words privately with my husband."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Nabeshima Itoko, implying to make her shy away.

Although Nabeshima Itoko was curious about what Li Xi wanted to say to Zhao Chuanxin, he finally looked at Zhao Chuanxin.

Whether he can be present or not is decided by Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin rolled his eyes.

He was worried that Nabeshima Itoko had run away.

This woman might be able to blackmail another sum of money.

As for money, the more the better.

So he said to Li Xiangxi: "You and the princess go out and wait, don't even think about calling the guards, the Japanese army can't stop me, and your Korean trash dim sum is even worse."

The most important thing is that his emperor Li Xi is still in his hands, and Zhao Chuanxin is not worried that he will make trouble.

Li Xi nodded towards Li Xiangxi.

After the two of them went out, Li Xi bypassed his work and deliberately got closer to appear intimate, then said: "Mr. Zhao, Japan is your enemy and mine. It's an urgent matter. I don't want to be secretive. It's better for you." How about my alliance?"

This remark really tickled the itch in Zhao Chuanxin's heart.

Before he came, he wondered if he could do something on Bangzi's side to add trouble to the Japanese.

Now, Li Xi actually took the initiative to deliver it to the door.

However, he still pretended to be reserved and said: "Alliance? What good can this Zhao do?"

Li Xi thought of what Li Xiangxi said, and he was also in a dilemma: "Mr. Zhao doesn't like beauty or money..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Chuanxin interrupted him, rolled up his arms and sleeves and said with righteous indignation: "Who told you that I don't love beauty or money? Come on, tell me this person's name, and I will break his legs." No, this is blatant slander, you know?"

"..."

Li Xi looked at Zhao Chuanxin in confusion.

Love rumors are all fake?

"Then, how much money does Mr. Zhao want? How many women?"

"Women, forget it for now. I found out, you don't have any good meat now. Money, I have to be tempted."

Korea's royal family is rich!

Many years later, Zaifeng, the regent of the Qing court, often complained to his son Pu Jie: "Britain destroyed India, and Indian princes continue to be hereditary. Japan annexed North Korea, and Li Wang's family is still His Royal Highness..."

It means that everyone is living a good life, rich and expensive.But they are nothing for the old and the young.

After Japan annexed Korea, the annual fee for the Korean royal family was initially 120 million yen per year.

what is this concept?

Converted into the money of future generations, it is roughly 3.32 million soft girls.

The members of the royal family of the Li family did not prosper, and the money was enough for them to eat and drink.

Moreover, this is only the annual fee given by Japan.

Li Xi must have money himself.

It seems that the construction of this palace alone cost a lot of money.

After hearing this, Li Xi gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Zhao, I have an idea. I'll take you to the inner bank. What do you like? As long as you can take it away, I will let you take it today. However, you have to help me Do some big things!"

my cao...

Zhao Chuanxin was shocked.

The man made a big mistake.

The Japanese made this mistake at the beginning, and ended up losing their wives and soldiers.

Now Li Xi is here again?

Putting Zhao Chuanxin in the internal funds, wouldn't it mean putting the mouse in the rice jar?

Li Xi saw Zhao Chuanxin's chick pecking at the rice and nodded: "Yeah, that's a good idea."

"..."

Li Xi was thinking, did he commit a crime?
Something seems wrong?

So he was going to put his ugly words first: "Mr. Zhao has to promise me first, and do three things for me."

After thinking about it, it is very cost-effective to exchange some money for the continuation of the imperial power.

Zhao Chuanxin's strong personal force can play a big role.

"Hmm, tell me."

Li Xi took a deep breath: "First thing, I want Mr. Zhao to help me send Li Xiangxi to Jiandao."

"no problem."

Zhao Chuanxin answered without even thinking.

If it's such a small matter, it's like giving him money for nothing.

Li Xi is not surprised, if the first thing is difficult, then there is no need to talk about it later.

He continued: "Second thing, Mr. Zhao helped me kill Li Wanyong!"

"Oh, Li Wanyong, right? Tell me the time and place, and then ask someone to help me identify who he is. Taking his head from a tens of thousands of troops is like picking something out of a pocket."

hiss……

What a big breath.

Seeing his promise, Li Xi was excited, and then he gritted his teeth: "Then, the third thing - Mr. Zhao helped me assassinate Hirobumi Ito, this thief bullied me too much!"
