Chapter 562

After a long time, Empress Dowager Guo's anger calmed down. After meditating for a moment, she narrowed her eyes and said, "since the internal bodyguard can't deal with it, we'll use the methods in the Jianghu."

Hearing the speech, Qinglian hesitated and asked, "does the Empress Dowager mean to continue to hire killers?"

Empress Dowager Guo frowned. In fact, she didn't trust the killers in the Jianghu.

The last time they hired them to assassinate Wen, it also ended in failure.

But the bodyguard can't even deal with two charlatans. If he is sent out again, it will only damage more. Moreover, if this matter is publicized, it will damage the royal face.

That pair of teachers and disciples have gone to Xiangzhou now. It must be that they have not given up on Gu linchao. How can she let them go?

They must die!

Thinking, a poisonous color flashed in her eyes, "under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man. You let someone offer a reward. If anyone can kill the pair of teachers and disciples and Wen, a thousand Liang will be rewarded."

Qinglian was shocked when she heard the speech. Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager still didn't give up the idea of killing Wen.

"Do you want to reuse the previous killer building?" she asked for instructions with her head down.

"Use it. If I failed last time, I don't believe they can still fail under this reward." Empress Dowager Guo frowned.

In her opinion, wealth is moving.

She hung such a reward, she didn't believe that Chiyu building didn't have to do her best to assassinate.

In fact, Shen Qingning is still the second. After all, Gu linchao doesn't care about her at all, and Wen Zhenzhen is the one who makes her want to get rid of her, but what is Shen Qingning? If she dares to give birth to unreasonable thoughts, she will let her pay the price of death.

"I'll go now," said Qinglian respectfully, and withdrew.

……

In a hidden mountain depression outside the capital.

Xiao Yan bowed and walked out of a cave with a disheartened face. Then he bah a few times, but he didn't stop. He took the water bag handed by the waiter and rinsed it several times before he stopped.

"Duke, can you really lead to the palace?" the attendant asked uncertainly.

Xiao Yan handed the water bag back to him, wiped the drops of water on his chin, and said firmly, "of course, it's just that it will take some time to dig through this channel."

Hearing the speech, the attendant was a little sad. "It's really time-consuming. It's been half a month since I dug that little."

Xiao Yan pondered: "there are many stones nearby, so it's difficult to dig. After this section of the road, it should be easy to dig a lot. By the way, please hire more people and let them dig in turn. As long as they don't stop day and night, I believe they can dig through soon."

"Yes." the attendant answered respectfully.

After checking around, Xiao Yan returned and said, "Zhou Jun, I'll give it to you. Be sure to urge them to dig faster, but don't force them too much. Eat three meals a day, prepare more wine and meat, and don't treat them badly.

I'll go back and have a rest and come back in two days. If there's anything wrong, report it to me in time. "He said, beating his sore back.

In order to dig this road, he didn't rest much during this period of time.

Relying on his familiarity with the terrain of the capital and the Imperial Palace, he spent several days drawing the terrain in person. Then he personally selected workers and went to the scene to check. He was busy for many days. Today he can finally rest.

"My subordinates understand. Don't worry about going back," Zhou Jun said.

Xiao Yan patted him on the shoulder and rode away.

Zhou Jun is the son of his family. He is reliable and loyal. He is very relieved to give it to him.

As for why he dug this secret Road, it was naturally for his old sister.

Gu Heng uses his elder sister to make elbow honing, and the elder sister is stubborn enough to use her own life and threaten honing not to care about her.

What a mess.

He has to solve the trouble for Heng.

Otherwise, one day this pair of uncles and nephews will really have a conflict. When it's time to use force, wouldn't Heng have to be tied up for the sake of the old sister?

At that time, he would steal his elder sister from the palace. In this way, he would have no worries at home and hang Zhi would be invincible.

Xiao Yan was complacent about his plan and made up his mind to dig through the secret road as soon as possible.

……

Tunzhou, Chiyu building.

The second elder looked at the golden gold in front of him and almost laughed. However, he finally remembered that the employer was still there, so he said with a solemn face: "don't worry, girl. We guarantee that the things you told us will be completed smoothly this time."

Qinglian, wearing a curtain hat, heard the speech and nodded, "if you can get things done, the other five hundred liang of gold will be delivered on time."

"Girl, just go back and prepare the gold. We will certainly present Wen's head at that time." the second elder patted his chest and promised.

My confidant heard it and twitched suspiciously at the corners of his mouth.

The second eldest brother couldn't resist. He even called the landlord's name and took the landlord's head.

Qinglian was satisfied. As the Empress Dowager said, these Jianghu people are greedy for profits. As long as they promise a lot of money, they don't worry about working hard.

Thinking, she stood up and said in a haughty tone, "so, I'm relieved and leave now."

"Zhao Kun, send this girl for me." the second elder winked at his confidant and said with a smile.

Zhao Kun understood and immediately came forward, "girl, please!"

Until after the man left, the two elders touched the gold in the box and couldn't close their mouths with laughter.

Sure enough, as the landlord guessed, the people behind the scenes were unwilling. They came to the door again and hired them.

Zhao Kun went for a long time before he came back. "The girl was very cautious. She changed carriages several times in this dunzhou City, and finally got out of the city. Our people almost lost them.

When she got outside the city, she took another carriage. After a circle, she went to the direction of the capital. However, I think the driver looked a little feminine and looked like a eunuch in the palace. "

The second elder heard the speech and pondered for a moment. Fang said, "so, the person who wants to kill the landlord is likely to come from the imperial palace."

"I think it's very possible." Zhao Kun nodded and asked, "the second elder really wants to take over this business?"

The two elders gathered their thoughts and touched the gold on the table. "Nonsense, if we take all the gold, can we go back? Besides, if we don't take over this business, that person will hire someone else. The landlord said, fat water doesn't flow out of the field."

Zhao Kun twitched at the corners of his mouth and had nothing to say. However, the employer certainly never dreamed that the person they were going to kill would be their landlord.

The gold was sent to them in vain.

"Zhao Kun, take some disciples to Xiangzhou now and tell the landlord what to do. Listen to the landlord's defecation."

"Yes." Zhao Kun answered and went down to prepare.

……

Xiangzhou.

Over the past month, Wen has caused serious harm to happiness. He has to vomit several times a day. He almost vomites whatever he eats. In the back, he has no appetite for anything he eats.

That is, Doctor Lin, who has excellent medical skills, used several methods for her, but none of them worked.
