At this time, in a corner of the palace, the atmosphere was heavy.
"Xue Chuan, the sixth Prince is too cunning. We know that he has a rebellious heart, but we can't find any evidence. There's no way for him. How can we tell the emperor?" Lian Tiesheng has a square face, full of anxiety.
After the victory of the war, the emperor began to clean up the court hall. The three fires that the new emperor had just ascended the throne were burning vigorously.
First of all, the war brought troubles to the common people, minus three years of heavy taxes.
He rewarded the soldiers who joined the army this time and dealt with some corrupt officials on the grounds of Qing government.
The wind blows fiercely, but the sixth prince, the biggest cancer, has no way to start. It can be seen that the old fox does everything without leaking.
If he can't reach the sixth prince, the situation will be very passive. If he starts a rebellion one day, it will be impossible to prevent.
It's better to start first.
Xue Chuan has been busy these days. He is the sixth Prince Cha secretly, but these days have passed without any progress.
This old fox is crafty. Although he has dealt with many of his subordinates, he still can't shake him. It can be seen that his foundation has been in the court for many years and he can't stand down.
"How many small towns does he have? If you look carefully, there may be a clue. " Xue Chuan said in a deep voice.
Qingshui town is one of the lines. Even Tiesheng knows more about the trickiness than him.
"There are people from the sixth prince in several towns nearby, but they are very defensive and don't show their feet at all. According to my guess, the sixth Prince has been recruiting troops in secret."
"Is this news true?"
"Eight or nine are inseparable from ten, but there is no definite evidence." Lian Tiesheng said helplessly.
If there is any evidence, go straight to the palace and take the six princes' nest.
Xue Chuan's eyes are flowing. The sixth Prince is so ambitious that he is most likely to succeed to the throne after the prince's death. This is cut off by the prince's son, his nephew. You can imagine his gloomy heart.
He has a rebellious heart. Sooner or later, he can't help it.
"The sixth Prince has done a good job of collecting money for a long time. It's only for the ultimate purpose of rebelling."
"I think so, too. These six princes are really cunning. They are all small officials who are bribed. They are also remote towns. The mountains are high and the Yellow Emperor is far away. No one can supervise them. They can do whatever they want.
Didn't we smell the clues in this aspect at the beginning, which led to our death? "
Even Tiesheng thought that they had been involved in the Yamen's plot, so they were killed, and he was still scared.
Xue Chuan's eyes were gloomy, and the air around him seemed to be a little cold. What he said was even colder than ice
"The sixth Prince is so defensive that he can't put people in, so we should keep an eye on his capable general, deputy general Lei. As long as we keep an eye on him, we won't find any clues."
"It makes sense." Even Tiesheng clapped his hands and cheered. How could he ignore this.
Xue Chuan added: "deputy general Lei is reckless and quick tempered. If you stare at him well, you will be surprised."
As long as you get to this thread, you can pull out the six princes.
"Well, I'll arrange for two good people to come over."
"Be careful." Xue Chuan repeatedly asked: "sneak into Lei's house and keep an eye on his contact with the sixth prince. I'm afraid that all the things that the sixth Prince is inconvenient to show up now will be handed over to him."
Lian Tiesheng said with a dignified look: "it seems that a civil war will break out."
Xue Chuan sneered: "now we are aiming at them. I'm afraid they will be aware of it. You must be careful on your way home. I'm afraid they will be unable to bear it and kill people."
Xue Chuan's words soon came to an end. After the evening, it was getting gray. After they changed their posts with the imperial guards in the palace, they were attacked by unknown assassins on their way home.
Fortunately, Xue Chuan had been on guard for a long time. He killed several assassins, set off smoke bombs, and quickly went back to the house.
The residence is safe for the time being. After all, it is located in the center of the downtown street. The assassins dare not kill here, which is eye-catching.
Zhang Man'er had just had dinner. He was going to lie down in bed to have a rest when he heard the sound of the window. Then a tall figure came in through the window.
Seeing his appearance in such a way, she was surprised and said, "what's the matter, Xue Chuan? Why don't you go through the gate?"
Turning over the walls and windows, so careful, I'm afraid something happened.
Xue Chuan opened the door, called reed, let her in the residence of the various entrances and exits, layout traps, do a good job of prevention.
After all this, he closed the wooden door and went back to the room, holding Zhang Man'er in his arms.
"Daughter in law, during this period of time, you should try not to go out. If you don't go to those shops, I'm afraid a bloody storm is coming."
Seeing that he looked so dignified, Zhang Man'er's heart also became nervous: "what is this?"
"On my way out of the palace, I was attacked by a group of assassins. I'm afraid we've been targeted. What I'm most worried about is the safety of your wives."
Xue Chuan said anxiously, covering her abdomen with his big hand and rubbing it gently.
"There are assassins. Who will be watching you? Are you hurt?" Zhang Man'er is very nervous. He looks up and down at him and checks his body to see if there is any injury.
"If you're right, it's probably deputy general Lei."
"This man is haunted." Zhang Man'er's face turned white for a while. Today, both of them are not going well?
She had a conflict with people in the teahouse. Xue Chuan was attacked on the way. This time, I'm afraid there will be another time.
No wonder he let the reeds set all kinds of traps in his residence in advance. It was not a whim.
Loei
Lei Fu is a big family in the capital. It's not easy to see from its vast area or the grand gate of the mansion.
At the moment, there is a wooden table beside the bookshelves in Lei Fu's study.
The oil lamp on the table is burning with a faint light, which makes the people sitting at the table shine faintly.
All of a sudden, with the wooden door being pushed open from the outside, the burning flame suddenly.
A man in black stepped forward quickly, went through several rows of bookshelves, and knelt down on one knee to the man in the master's seat.
"Master."
The man, known as the master, is sitting on the wooden chair, playing with the poisoned concealed weapon with his fingers. His face, which is shrouded in half of the darkness, looks dark and ferocious.
He threw the concealed weapon on the table, picked up a clean silk handkerchief, wiped his hands and said, "how about it?"
Humanity in Black: "master, the assassination failed. Xue Chuan is really cunning. He seems to have been on guard. After a smoke bomb, he can't even see his figure."
The man was holding the tea cup on the table. After a sip of tea, he suddenly tightened it.
Tea cup in the hands of the moment into a pile of powder, white powder, passing from the fingers, scattered on the ground.
The silence around him, accompanied by a suffocating dull, can make people feel his anger at the moment.
"So many people, can't you kill him?" Rough voice, with a violent.
"Master, it's the negligence of his subordinates. I didn't expect him to do it." I used the poison when I knew it.
"General Ben has already reminded you that Xue Chuan is not a simple man. He is very crafty. He has fought with general Ben several times in the military camp, and he has made a bargain. We must deal with it by extraordinary means. If necessary, we must use concealed weapons with poison. " Deputy general Lei pointed to the poison weapon on the table.
Now Xue Chuan is the red man in front of the emperor. Many things he has done have blocked the progress of the sixth prince. This stumbling block must be removed as soon as possible.
If necessary, in order to achieve the purpose, extraordinary means can be used.
"Yes, I know my mistake. This preliminary exploration also understands the strength of this man, and I believe that the next time you make a move, you will surely be able to kill him. "
Xue Chuan is on his own every day. It's not difficult for so many people to kill him.
Deputy general Lei's eyes are full of murderous spirit, and his eyes are evil. It gives people a huge sense of oppression: "next time, if the task fails, you will come to see me."
"Yes." The man in black touched the cold sweat on his forehead and promised again and again: "master, don't worry, my subordinates will complete the task. By the way, will the sixth Prince report his task recently? "
Deputy general Lei shook his finger and denied: "no, it's very windy these days. Please keep in touch with the sixth prince to avoid being caught by the other party. The most urgent thing at the moment is to get rid of Xue Chuan first. "
"Yes, master." The man in black took orders.
