The Eunuch's Hand Covers the Sky

Chapter 117
"What did you say? Say it again!" The eldest prince stood in the Xuange Hall, pointing at Wang Zhen in shock.Also present were Wang Shitu, Song Shiqian, chief assistant Shen Congwen, Ni Geng who had insulted Wang Zhen, and the eldest prince's confidantes.There was also the wrinkled Empress Dowager Lin who sat on the side without saying a word.Surprisingly, the old man Fang Haibo Fang Layman and Zuo Zhiqiu were also on the list.Wang Zhen was really taken aback.

"Return to Your Highness, the official is right, the second prince is indeed going to mobilize troops. The 48 guards outside the capital will arrive in a short time." "Hahaha! Ridiculous, the second prince is always calm, how could he Sit down and other things?" It was Ni Geng who said this, obviously making things difficult.Wang Zhen squinted his eyes, feeling a little annoyed in his heart, last time he was sarcastic in Suzhou, but this time he still didn't know how to restrain himself.Xu Zuo Zhiqiu saw Wang Zhen's unkind expression, so he intentionally fawned and said, "Mr. Fang's words are wrong. The prince risked being killed to tell His Highness that it's fine if you don't appreciate it, and deliberately slandered it. For disrespect."

"Hmph! Zuo Zhiqiu, now you are helping this eunuch in everything, but you must pay attention to your status as a literati!" Shen Congwen frowned, and when he saw the eldest prince sitting quietly with his head bowed, he hurriedly stopped him: "What are you arguing about! Look! You are one or two, and you are still arguing when you are old. Why are you thinking of His Highness!" Shen Congwen has the highest reputation among literati, and literati all over the world will respectfully call him a teacher.But a giant general figure. "Yes, yes. The student knew it was wrong."

At this moment, a tall and mighty Yin Jun man wearing scale armor standing by the side suddenly cupped his fists and lowered his head and said to the eldest prince: "Your Highness, if what the prince said is true, then you should prepare quickly. Otherwise, it will be difficult to deal with the real soldiers coming to the city." This person's name is Zhao Guiying, and he is the leader and general of the fourth battalion of Hu Ben, Jin Wu, Yu Lin, and the government army.Add up a total of twelve soldiers and horses.Unlike the Beijing army, they did not go to battle to kill the enemy, but were the pro-army of the emperor.It is a well-equipped and well-trained top-level army.

The second prince waved his hand, frowned and said: "Second brother, there is no need to worry, his 48 guards are useless to me. My first concern is the person who assassinates the father. Who is it!" As soon as the words came out, the confidantes around bowed their heads and thought hard, or didn't want to speak.Only Wang Shitu, who was shaking his fan, suddenly smiled, adding a little mystery.Seeing Wang Shitu's appearance, the eldest prince said angrily: "Sir, father was poisoned to death. According to the imperial physician, this is a kind of poison refined from the heartbroken grass that can only be found in Miaojiang, Yunnan. .Some time ago, the father approved the general army from Sichuan to conquer the rebellion in Yunnan. Do you think it was done by the Miao people in Yunnan?"

This sentence is not so much a question as a solicitation.I saw that Wang Shitu brushed away his fan and said confidently: "Your Highness, it is impossible to be from Miao Jiang. As far as I know, let alone Miao Jiang, there is really no such level in the world today." A master. Even Zhuge Wolong is far behind. Moreover, this person's martial arts is so high that he killed hundreds of eunuchs, but he only used poison on the emperor? Wouldn't it just make people laugh?"

"This... Then, in your opinion, who is it?" Who would have thought that Wang Shitu shook his head helplessly and said: "I don't know, this kind of master is born out of the world, and I have no clue if I want to find it. It may be the princes. There may be remnants of the past. But there are too many people who doubt it, and I really don’t know.”

The eldest prince's originally hopeful eyes dimmed for a moment, and he said with some discomfort: "Father and emperor have a vengeance, but unfortunately, no one can help me find the real culprit..." As soon as the words came out, everyone bowed their heads and felt ashamed.On the contrary, Wang Shitu sneaked a glance at Wang Zhen, with an indescribable strangeness in his eyes.Wang Zhen trembled all over, feeling icy cold, Wang Shitu won't notice anything.But if you really know that you killed the emperor, you should expose it immediately.Why are you silent?Could it be that he guessed it was me, but had no proof?Yes. .should be.

Not to mention that Wang Zhen's thoughts were running wild.The eldest prince shook his head and said: "The matter has come to this point, it is useless to think too much. At present, the key is to be vigilant to the actions of other princes." "Your Highness, the fifth prince and the second prince have been in close contact recently. Will it be. It was Song Shiqian who spoke, and it turned out that he had been closely monitoring the princes.When the eldest prince heard this, he frowned even more, and said angrily, "The fifth emperor's younger brother doesn't have much advantage in himself, he is too snobbish, and is deeply dissatisfied by his father. It is useless to follow the second emperor's younger brother. Thinking about him I also know that in the current situation, either you die or I die. How can you be willing to serve the second brother? He must be prepared!"

At this time, Wang Shitu suddenly thought of something, and said: "Your Highness is wise and powerful, so naturally you are not afraid of these methods. But you must be careful about the Queen Mother's safety..." "Of course I know this, and tomorrow I will arrange my subordinates to protect her old man, so that she does not suffer from accidents." What a disaster." "No, what I'm talking about is that His Highness is personally guarding the Empress Dowager's side, located in the imperial palace, and it's easy to deal with it. For the Empress Dowager, it's a rare show of filial piety."

The eldest prince couldn't help laughing, looked at Wang Shitu and made fun of: "Mr. why have you learned this now? Could it be that he was taught by those slaves?" That's all."

The eldest prince shook his head, looked at the sky and said: "Forget it, it's getting late, I have to go back to the palace to greet the Queen Mother. You can go on your own." "Your subordinate will leave." Wang Zhen thought up and down in his heart, suddenly Said: "Although the lower officials are not very useful, they still have some martial arts in their hands. If His Highness does not dislike it, let the lower officials protect His Highness's safety." As soon as these words came out, the eldest prince did not have much reaction.But Zhao Guiying, who was standing beside the eldest prince, frowned uncomfortably. She was the leader of the royal army.It is his duty to protect the royal family, how did this dead eunuch force his job?There was nothing to say at the moment, and when everyone was about to disperse and leave, Zuo Zhiqiu suddenly nodded approvingly to Wang Zhen.He pretended to get into the carriage and left. . .

In a house not far away, there were so many people in the dark that you couldn't see your fingers.But there were two men whispering quietly: "Are you ready? Don't make any trouble when the time comes. I spent a lot of money to invite you." The voice was very thick.I feel like a simple and honest person, but there is a gloom in these words.

"Don't worry, our Flying Scythe City is not in vain. As long as you guarantee the throne, you will give us the land and title of Flying Scythe City. That's just an old woman and a young man who doesn't know martial arts, plus some people who haven't been on the battlefield for many years It’s easy to catch.” The voice of the guy who claimed to be from Feijian City was quite cunning, and he couldn’t leave any good influence on people.And Flying Scythe City is a taboo name in Jianghu, because he is full of killers, all of them are cold-blooded and ruthless killers.It is even said that Yidianhong, the number one killer in the world, was born in Feijian City.

As for where is Flying Scythe City?No one knows because no one has seen it.To hire Flying Scythe City's killer, you must have a relationship, find a contact person.to make a deal.

At this time, the thick voice sounded again, but with a hint of expectation: "That's good, you must kill that old woman and Zhang Muzhi. Once these two people die, I will accomplish great things! Naturally, the benefits of Feilian City will be indispensable to you! "
