When Xu Zizhen blasted a tree dozens of paces away out of a deep pit with a firecracker, Toba was so shocked that his complexion turned pale and his eyes were dull. He had seen cannons before, but this was the first time he had seen such a small firearm. This lethal power... almost only the legendary Amaterasu can possess it.

Toba finally managed to gather his composure, and thought of another question: "Mr. Xu, this kind of artifact is too noisy, so it doesn't seem to be suitable for that?"

Xu Zizhen took the firecracker back to his waist: "Who said I'm going to use this to kill your grandfather?"

Toba didn't care how awkward the words were, and asked, "Then what do you mean?"

Xu Zizhen said: "This is just to let my people get out of the body. As for the assassination..." He clapped his hands and called, "Luo Ji."

A black shadow flickered, and Luo Ji had appeared in front of Xu Zizhen, kneeling on one knee: "Master."

Toba was taken aback, and the way he looked at Xu Zizhen changed again. He didn't expect Xu Zizhen, as a college student, to have such an invisible master by his side.

Xu Zizhen waved him to stand up, and said to Toba: "Killing your grandfather is no small matter, you must keep your face down, my subordinate is proficient in at least ten such assassination methods." His words were a bit bragging Well, Luo Ji has always been in the dark, and is only responsible for inquiring about him. He has never seen him make a real move, let alone kill someone, but what is needed now is to bluff Toba first, and we will talk about who to send when the time comes.

Luo Ji suddenly interjected: "Return to master, there are actually 37 kinds of subordinates."

"Damn, so much?" Xu Zizhen realized a problem just after half a sentence, and suddenly he was surprised and delighted, "Do you understand Japanese?"

Luo Ji didn't show any complacency, and still replied respectfully: "This subordinate is proficient in Khitan Jurchen Japanese."

Xu Zizhen was overjoyed, this can be regarded as an unexpected surprise, he originally planned to send Luo Ji to Japan to do this job, but he needed to go to Honglu Temple to borrow the Japanese interpreter today, but this matter needs to be kept secret, and it is very It's dangerous. Adding an interpreter who can't work hard may drag Luo Ji down. Now, although Luo Ji's Japanese sounds not as proficient as his, it seems that communication is no problem.

"Okay, it looks like it's going to be hard for you to go on a hard job."

"Yes!"

Luo Ji didn't say a word. He had heard the conversation between Xu Zizhen and Toba just now, so he naturally knew what he was going to do in Japan. For him, it was good to know what the mission was, and nothing else was important.

But Xu Zizhen said to Toba again: "When will His Excellency return to Japan? Can you be a few days later?"

Toba hesitated for a moment: "I'm supposed to be back tomorrow, is there anything else Mr. Xu can do?"

Xu Zizhen patted Luo Ji on the shoulder with a smile: "I will get married in three days, and my brother must come to the wedding, so I will discuss with you to come back a few days later, so that he can go with you."

After a moment of surprise, Toba laughed and said: "Of course, Xu Jun's marriage is a major event, so I will stay in Yingtian Mansion for a few more days and have the right to play."

The matter was settled like this. Although Luo Ji was silent by the side, a touch of emotion flashed in his eyes. He was raised by Lord Yong, but he always knew his identity very well. Xu Zizhen was his master, but he made him They became brothers, and Luo Ji could tell that what Xu Zizhen said was true, without any affectation.

On the way back, Xu Zizhen found a deserted place, handed the firecracker to Luo Ji, and said solemnly: "This matter is of great importance, but no matter what, safety comes first. Keep this firecracker for self-defense, just in case. In addition, it can also give Toba a shock, so that he won't use his brains on you after the matter is over."

Luo Ji threw himself down on one knee again, and said word by word: "This subordinate will definitely go through fire and water, and he will do whatever he wants!"

Xu Zizhen hurriedly helped him up: "Get up, get up, you should rest and refresh yourself for the past two days, and replace Shi Qi. After drinking my wedding wine, you will go to Japan with Toba. Go early and return early. Remember, there is Give up if you are in danger, understand?"

"Yes!" Luo Ji should have agreed, but a flash of determination flashed in his eyes.

Xu Zizhen is in a particularly good mood today, Wan Yanchang and his lackeys not only ran for nothing, but also lost such a big face, but earned him a lot of gold for nothing, and in the end they didn't even dare to fart, so they just fell into despair He ran away, and he inadvertently hooked up with Japan. Toba is not a good guy, but his purpose is just to cause civil turmoil in Japan, and whether he can do business in the future is another matter.

He then thought, if he remembered correctly, Japan’s shogunate era appeared after Toba’s death. If this chaotic era came earlier because of his own intervention, then Japan would fall into civil strife in the future, and eastern China The coast will be peaceful for a while.

The more Xu Zizhen thought about it, the more complacent he became, and his steps became much lighter. When he returned home, he found a yamen servant waiting at the door, and he couldn't help being taken aback.

As soon as the yamen servant saw Xu Zizhen, he hurried up to greet him: "Mr. Xu, you are back. His Highness King Kang has been waiting for you in the yamen for a long time."

Xu Zizhen slapped his forehead: "It's my fault, I should go and have a face-to-face with Qiye first." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and galloped away, Xiaobaicai walked quickly, and arrived at the Yamen of Yingtianfu in a short time.

Zhao Gou was waiting for him alone in the study, and Xu Zizhen noticed that his expression was a bit dignified.

"Qi Ye, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"

Zhao Gou asked straight to the point: "Zizhen, did you humiliate Wan Yanchang so much today, did you do it on purpose?"

Xu Zizhen praised: "You still understand me, Seventh Master."

Zhao Gou said anxiously: "The Holy Majesty is now negotiating peace with the Jinren, and Wan Yanchang will be furious if you do this, and then..."

Xu Zizhen interrupted him: "Qi Ye, the peace talks are all false, even if I, Xu Zizhen, did not provoke him, what should have happened would always happen. As for why I did this, it is inconvenient to tell you now. You will understand in time." He paused for a moment, and said with a serious expression, "Qi Ye, trust me, no matter what I do, I will never harm you."

Zhao Gou was dumbfounded. Indeed, Xu Zizhen has been helping him since he met him. He even ignored the former prince and the current sage. It was to ensure that he almost died in the Zhending Mansion. Xu Zizhen would never harm him. possible.

Xu Zizhen did provoke Wan Yanchang on purpose, not for anything else, but to make Wan Yanchang angry. When the time comes to go back and add fuel and vinegar to Wu Libuhe Wushu, it will definitely affect the peace talks between Zhao Huan and the Jinren Anyway, Bianjing will have to be destroyed sooner or later, so why waste so much gold and silver?Or to put it another way, Bianjing will be destroyed sooner or later, so of course we have to get angry with Yan Chang if we have the opportunity now.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door in a panic: "Your Highness, the Holy Spirit is here!"
