"That's about it."

Beizhai recounted what she had done for King Xin, which was not much different from Zhang Jingyun's impression, only some details were different.

Half a year ago, King Xin saw some of Hokusai's paintings and made him a confidant. Hokusai also became interested in Donglin Party poetry under the influence of King Xin.

Beizhai and Zhou Miaotong were stimulated by the house raids many years ago and harbored a grudge against Wei Zhongxian and Jin Yiwei. They both naively believed that without Wei Zhongxian in the court, the Ming Dynasty would be restored to prosperity and peace.

So a few months ago.

King Xin followed the advice of the Donglin Party to plan major events, trying to make Emperor Tianqi die unexpectedly. At that time, King Xin will ascend the throne, which can overthrow Wei Zhongxian and rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty.

For this reason, King Xin ordered people to plan to tamper with the treasure ship, so that when Emperor Tianqi was playing in Taiye Pool, the treasure ship sank and drowned.

Although Emperor Tianqi was rescued.

However, he still suffers from lung disease, and there is no cure for it.

The one who tampered with the treasure ship was the eunuch Guo Zhen, who had served as a palm eunuch and was a colleague of Lu Wenzhao and Shen Lian during the Battle of Salhu eight years ago.

In the Battle of Saerhu, Shen Lian rescued Lu Wenzhao, and the two fought bravely to kill the enemy and rescued Guo Zhen. Lu Wenzhao relied on his friendship with Guo Zhen and asked Guo Zhen to tamper with the treasure ship when he was building it.

Guo Zhen was originally a palm print eunuch with a high position and authority. It was because Wei Zhongxian squeezed him out that he has fallen so far, so he also wanted to bring down Wei Zhongxian.

In this way, the two hit it off.

Emperor Tianqi fell into the water and his time was running out.

However, since Wang Xin had no sense of security since he was a child, planning such a big event made him suspicious, especially Guo Zhen, who he didn't trust.

Therefore, Xin Wang pretended to be clever and used Beizhai to ask Beizhai to secretly ask Guo Zhen out to meet him, and then killed Guo Zhen in the restaurant, pretending to be murdered for money.

This is the result of King Xin's fuss.

Originally, he could just wait for Emperor Tianqi to be killed, but in the end, he insisted on killing Guo Zhen and thought he had eliminated the flaw.

As everyone knows!
Killing Guo Zhen, isn't that a lice on the bald head, obviously?Someone must be secretly murdering Emperor Tianqi.

This is an extremely stinky move!
Even Lu Wenzhao was speechless towards this prince. The key was that he had to wipe King Xin's butt and eliminate the two extra flaws for King Xin.

One, Hokusai.

Hokusai knew that he was planning to kill Emperor Apocalypse, and even came forward to ask Guo Zhen out. What she knew was enough to make King Xin abandon his martial arts.

So Lu Wenzhao wanted to kill Beizhai.

Second, the minutes of the treasure ship.

The Minutes of the Treasure Ship is the blueprint record of the supervision of the construction of the treasure ship. There are traces of Guo Zhen modifying the structure of the treasure ship. If Guo Zhen is killed, the Minutes of the Treasure Ship will be exposed.

And this is the second thing Lu Wenzhao wants to do. Originally, he was waiting for Zhang Jingyun to return to life and tell him the good news of killing Beizhai.

Then Zhang Jingyun was asked to burn the archives. In this way, the fatal flaw in the Treasure Ship Records could be erased.

Unfortunately, Zhang Jingyun did not return for a long time.

Ling Yunkai caused a big trouble. Shen Lian came back alone and told Lu Wenzhao that they were attacked at Beizhai's house and Ling Yunkai died...

.........

Zhang Jingyun held Beizhai and Zhou Miaotong in his arms, "The situation in the capital may change soon. It is too dangerous for you to stay here."

"I am alone and can leave at any time, but what about my sister? She has no documents from the Ministry of Punishment and cannot leave Nuanxiang Pavilion."

Hokusai was worried.

Zhou Miaotong stayed here for one more day, which made her heartbroken.

"It's not difficult to get the documents from the Ministry of Punishments. You can get them with money. 500 taels of ransom is not much. I will pick up Miaotong in a few days. You can go to the south of the city to hide in peace."

Zhang Jingyun said, Hokusai nodded.

Later, Zhang Jingyun took Beizhai away from Nuanxiang Pavilion and sent her to a secret place in the south of the city. He first paid Zhou Miaotong to redeem her body, and then stayed with her for a few days, and then slowly rushed back to Qianhu to recover her life.

.........

Chitosho's side.

Lu Wenzhao was in a very bad mood.

Things turned out to be more twists and turns than he imagined, "Ling Yunkai was killed? Did you know that he is Eunuch Wei's nephew!"

Lu Wenzhao questioned Shen Lian.

Lu Wenzhao seemed to know that Shen Lian had killed him, but Shen Lian didn't admit it. As a senior Jin Yiwei, the scene he personally arranged was flawless.

Shen Lian even changed the subject and talked about Guo Zhen: "My lord, Guo Zhen is an eunuch in the palace, and his death must have been difficult."

Lu Wenzhao was speechless, of course he knew this, because King Xin sent someone to kill him, and he handled the funeral himself.

"Since he is a palace eunuch, he is not under our control. Nanzhen Fusi will send someone to deal with it. If you have nothing to do, go ahead and get busy."

Shen Lian turned around and left.

Lu Wenzhao looked at his back as if he was making up his mind, until three figures appeared in front of him, none other than Ding Baiying, brothers and sisters Ding Chong and Ding Tai.

"Ding Xiu hasn't come back yet?"

Lu Wenzhao couldn't help asking.

Ding Baiying shook his head: "No trace."

"This guy took my 100 taels of silver and ran away with someone?" Lu Wenzhao could imagine that Ding Xiuzhen might do such a thing.

It was Ding Baiying who bit his lip and said: "You should wait a little longer. Although he is a bit of a looser man, he rarely fails to do what he promises."

Lu Wenzhao shook his head: "We don't have time. Beizhai can let it go for a while. After all, she has feelings for King Xin, but the treasure ship must be burned."

"I'll burn it!" Ding Baiying volunteered.

Lu Wenzhao couldn't bear the risk of his junior sister doing such a thing, "You can't use it, then Ling Yunkai was probably killed by Shen Lian, send a note to Shen Lian and force him to go."

Shen Lian thought that the whole thing was done seamlessly, but he overlooked one point, that is the impermanence on Ling Yunkai's body. This is Jin Yiwei's personal booklet specially recording the target's words and deeds. Even if someone really saved Beizhai, why did the other party take Ling Yun away? Kai's impermanence?
And the conflict between Shen Lian and Ling Yunkai was very deep, whether it was Shen Lian who killed the person, it would be clear after a trial.

In the afternoon, Shen Lian returned home.

His expression remained unchanged, impermanence was a flaw, but as long as he refused to admit it, no one could do anything to him.

Unless someone saw him kill with his own eyes.

call out!
Just then, an arrow shot at him.

Shen Lian quickly dodged, only to hear a ding, the arrow was nailed into the wooden board, and there was a note at the end fluttering in the wind.

Shen Lian looked around in front of the door and couldn't see anyone, so he picked up the note with a solemn face, which read: According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, the crime of killing Jin Yiwei is an accomplice to treason, and he belongs to the barbarians!

Behind the note is a meeting place.

Shen Lian burned the note with fire, his expression serious, as if he was considering whether to go see the person who shot the arrow at night.

That night.

After thinking twice, Shen Lian went anyway.

It was a bamboo forest. As a gust of wind blew, the bamboo leaves rustled. Shen Lian's footsteps sounded in the bamboo forest and soon stopped.

Because in front of him, a woman in white clothes appeared, and a man and a woman appeared on both sides with swords, shields and maces, and surrounded Shen Lian in a corner.

The three of them are Ding Baiying, Ding Chong and Ding Tai, and the formation of the three is a Japanese sword formation designed by Qi Jiguang himself, which is specially used to surround and kill masters.

Shen Lian was frightened by the formation and did not dare to attack rashly. At this time, Ding Baiying, a woman in white, also stood up and said to Shen Lian: "You must regret it very much now if you killed that Jin Yiwei."

Shen Lian asked, "Where is Beizhai?"

From his point of view, Beizhai must have told the other party the secret of his murder, but he didn't know that it was only Lu Wenzhao who lied to him based on Shen Lian's rhetoric.

Shen Lian's words also proved Lu Wenzhao's guess that Ling Yunkai was indeed killed by Shen Lian, and Ding Baiying suddenly smiled with a confident smile.

Ding Baiying said: "That girl is your witness to murder, how could I bring her here."

Shen Lian frowned: "What on earth do you want to do, extort money?"

"If you don't want money, I want you to burn the record library."

Shen Lian shook his head: "The Documents Storehouse is the important place of the Jinyi Guards. Burning the Documents Library will result in the death penalty. It's the same as death. It's not as good as..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Lian drew out his Xiuchun knife and struck it, revealing that he would die if he killed Jin Yiwei or if he burned the case library, it would be better to try to kill these three people.

Ding Chong held a sword and shield and blocked Shen Lian with the shield. On the other side, Ding Tai held a 36-jin mace and hit Shen Lian fiercely.

Shen Lian's saber was blocked and attacked by a strong enemy. He quickly put the Xiuchun Dao in front of him to block Ding Tai's mace.

boom!
Shen Lian was hit by the mace directly for more than ten meters, and hit a bamboo hard. The bamboo trembled and relieved Shen Lian's strength.

Shen Lianxue is thick, and he was not injured by the heavy blow. He looked at the three people in front of him coldly, and the formation of the three people became a one-character formation again.

This was the rhythm to take down Shen Lian quickly.

Shen Lian was not afraid either.

I saw him clamping the Xiuchun knife between his forearm and forearm, he yanked hard to wipe the blade clean, and then he held the Xiuchun knife horizontally in front of his eyes, as if he was going to fight hard.

But behind Xiuchun Knife, Shen Lian's eyes flickered. It turned out that he was looking at which side was more suitable to escape. As for the Xiuchun Knife, it was just a cover-up.

Confuse the opponent from knowing his intentions.

Finally, Shen Lian took big strides and fled to the left. Ding Chong and Ding Tai hurriedly chased after him, but Shen Lian suddenly changed direction, and after throwing the two away, he was facing Ding Baiying to kill. He wanted to catch the thief first and the king first!
Ding Baiying seemed to be too scared to move.

The Xiuchundao was so close that she even closed her eyes to see if it would be pierced. Ding Baiying opened her eyes fiercely, held the handle of the knife secretly, performed the sword drawing technique, and slashed it down with one strike!

Ding!
Shen Lian's Xiuchun knife was cut off. At the same time, Ding Baiying's knife was also placed on his neck, looking at Shen Lian with a playful expression.

"You pretended to run away and lured my two disciples away. The purpose was to capture me first. What do you think? Have you made up your mind? Do you want to die or burn the case documents?"

Shen Lian did not hesitate: "Burn the archives!"

.........

Ding Baiying's mission was successfully completed, but on the other hand, Lu Wenzhao felt a headache because the investigators from Nanzhen Fusi came.

Not only the death of Guo Zhen must be investigated.

Ling Yunkai’s case must also be investigated.

Pei Lun of Baihu was keenly aware that this incident was inseparable from Shen Lian, but he had no evidence, so Pei Lun decided to investigate Beizhai in detail.

This check does not matter.

He actually learned from the monk Jinghai who sold paintings that Shen Lian loved Hokusai's paintings and had purchased Hokusai's paintings from monk Jinghai many times.

Pei Lun has long been dissatisfied with Shen Lian.

Because Yin Cheng, who nominally died in Shen Lian's hands, was his good brother, Shen Lian could have let Yin Cheng live, but he didn't agree.

Therefore, after Pei Lun discovered the relationship between Shen Lian and Beizhai, he immediately went to his boss, Lu Wenzhao, and reported his doubts about Shen Lian.

"Beizhi not only found Shen Lian's collection of Beizhai's paintings, but also found that eight years ago, both Shen Lian and Guo Zhen were survivors of the 5 troops of the West Route Army in the Battle of Sarhu.

He knew Guo Zhen at that time and asked your lord to allow me to go to the records library to inquire who else survived the Western Route Army in the Battle of Sarhu eight years ago. "

"Why?" Lu Wenzhao asked.

Pei Lun said: "Guo Zhen was the supervisor of the treasure ship, and his humble position suspected that Guo Zhen and Shen Lian had colluded to try to murder the emperor.

And such a big plan, relying on Guo Zhen and Shen Lian, will definitely not be completed. If they still have comrades, they may be the survivors of the Battle of Saerhu! "

"Oh~~"

Lu Wenzhao nodded in a long voice.

At the same time, he quietly walked around behind Pei Lun.

At this time, Pei Lun was convinced of his doubts, and even felt that he might make a great contribution, and now he was waiting for Lu Wenzhao to give him an accurate statement.

As everyone knows, Pei Lun's deduction is as fierce as a tiger. Although he guessed wrong from the root, Shen Lian and Guo Zhen are not accomplices.

But Pei Lun was right. The person who conspired with Guo Zhen to murder the emperor was a survivor of the West Route Army in the Battle of Sarhu.

And the last survivor...

It was Lu Wenzhao, the boss behind Pei Lun.

"Who? Come out!"

Lu Wenzhao shouted low, and as soon as he finished speaking, three figures jumped from the roof one after another. It was Ding Baiying, Ding Chong, and Ding Tai!
When Pei Lun saw this, he had a flash of inspiration and protected Lu Wenzhao, "The thieves are making a sneak attack. Sir, I'll go first. I'm holding them back due to my humble position..."

puff!
The sound of the short blade piercing into the flesh sounded.

Pei Lun turned his head and looked at Lu Wenzhao behind him. It was Lu Wenzhao who stabbed him in the waist with a short blade. Pei Lun couldn't understand why Lu Wenzhao stabbed him.

"My lord, you..."

Lu Wenzhao let go of his hand.

Then he looked at Ding Baiying, "Junior Sister!"

Pei Lun turned around, his face full of surprise. Lu Wenzhao, the Jinyi Guard Qianhu, was actually in the same group as these thieves who broke into the Qianhu Residence.

"Lu Wenzhao, it's you!"

Lu Wenzhao said indifferently: "Kill him!"

Ding Baiying winked at Ding Chong, and the next second, Ding Chong charged at Pei Lun. Pei Lun knew he was outmatched, so he rushed out of Qianhu Residence with a sliding shovel and fled quickly.

Ding Baiying and Ding Tai also pursued.

“It’s really exciting for colleagues to kill each other!”

At this time, Lu Wenzhao was the only one left in the courtyard of the Thousand Households Institute. At this moment, a voice sounded, and then a figure landed in the courtyard.

The visitor looked at Lu Wenzhao with admiration.

Lu Wenzhao looked at this person and was stunned.

It was Ding Xiu who went to kill Beizhai a few days ago.

Lu Wenzhao said angrily: "You still know where you have been when you come back these days. What is the mission I gave you? Whether Beizhai is dead or alive, answer me!"

Zhang Jingyun said, "Uncle, do you still have the mind to care about this? Do you know that according to the Ming Dynasty law, killing a Jinyi guard is a crime of conspiracy and belongs to the Yi tribe."

Lu Wenzhao was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Isn't this what he asked Ding Baiying to give to Shen Lian, and Ding Xiu actually gave it to him intact to threaten him?

"Ding Xiu, I am your senior uncle!"

Zhang Jingyun carried the Miao Dao on his shoulder, and said seriously, "My uncle also needs to settle the score clearly, uncle, I will keep this secret of yours for the rest of my life!"
