Who's home tonight, Bian Zhouzi

Chapter 14 4

On the night before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zeng Yunzhao, who had not received any news for a long time, died in his own house.A flying knife pierced his throat, and died in his study without any pain.The guards heard the quarrel before, and heard the strange noise again. They came in and saw the window was open, and the master was lying in a pool of blood; they searched all over the house, and heard a scream from the corner of the wall. They chased and saw that the deputy guard was dead. And it was Duan Jing who died with him.As soon as the case came out, the whole country was in an uproar. The palace demanded to track down the murderer, expressing that there must be a mastermind behind the scenes. Zeng Jingzhao arranged for Dali Temple to investigate in order to appease the hearts of the people.As a result, the Dali Temple found the bright yellow dragon robe and the incense burner hidden in the hidden compartment in the palace. It was full of burnt papers, leaving only two words "Cheng Su".Dali Temple was terrified and reported to the imperial court. The court decided to dispatch Bi An as a school official, and the school officials found the gifts and letters that Duan Jing had sent earlier in the Jiangxia prefect's mansion.When the school officials came, Cheng Su hanged himself in the mansion and died.The school officials who came here on order took the things they found and chilled them in late autumn.Zeng Jingzhao sat in front of the Longshu case without saying a word, and in front of him was the final report of Dali Temple: Jiangling King Zeng Yunzhao wanted to rebel, so he secretly contacted Cheng Su, the prefect of Jiangxia, and sent a messenger, Duan Jing, to deliver the letter.After Duan Jing successfully sent the letter, he did not return to return for some reason, but instead assassinated the master's family.For this reason, Dali Temple said that they could not find out the reason anyway.Duan Jing has no relatives, no other support, and no close relatives in the palace.Asked those disciples, everyone said that Duan Jing was trusted by Zeng Yunzhao, and no one could match him; but except for Hu Feng, others also spoke bad things about Duan Jing, saying that this person is so narrow-minded and ungrateful.There is no evidence other than this, Cheng Su is also dead, and everything is dead without evidence.

She repeatedly asked Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation and exhaust all clues; the minister of Dali Temple almost felt that the official could not do it, so it was better to commit suicide.Those who doubted her in the court thought she was hypocritical.She is posturing.She wanted to use this effort to make sure that Duan Dizhi was doing everything right, because she felt it was very dangerous.When news of the incident reached the palace, Zeng Jingzhao really didn't know about it. Her surprised face was not acting.After she went to Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation, everyone immediately dispersed and summoned Duan Dizhi—Duan Dizhi has been performing martial arts with the prince during the day recently.

"Yun Zhao is dead." "Huh?" "You did it." "Yeah." Zeng Jingzhao frowned, "I said no.!" "He was contacting Jiang Xia Cheng Su." "Just contacted Cheng Su , you just go ahead and kill him?!" Duan Dizhi was stunned for a moment, and looked at her with some doubts—frowning, slightly tilting his neck—"Do I have to wait until they rise up? Wait until things get out of control?" Zeng Jingzhao said A little exasperated, "Okay, now that things have come to an end, what should we do if things come to light?" Ming Ye became angry, "The person concerned is either absolutely controllable, or he is dead." Zeng Jingzhao's anger remained undiminished, staring at Duan Dizhi, Duan Dizhi could only softly say: "I can control it. Don't worry. Tell someone to go Check, it will be strange if you can find anything. I have it, don't be afraid. Everything depends on me."

Zeng Jingzhao didn't feel relaxed at all, but she was out of breath and didn't like to get angry, so she could only say: "You might as well contact Master Teng to see if she can help you. The servants in Yunzhao's mansion you mentioned, have something to do It's not good." She just closed her eyes and shook her head, not seeing that Duan Dizhi's expression turned cold when she heard the words, as if the red silk girl was her enemy. "If necessary, I will naturally contact her. What are you going to do? I'm afraid that sooner or later the family members of the royal family will make trouble." Zeng Jingzhao's almond eyes widened in an instant, and she said angrily: "You know it too! I don’t know what they think of me! If everyone in the palace takes this opportunity to ask me what I want, what should I do! They will definitely not let you investigate, and they can only send Dali Temple! I’m afraid that in the future they will hold a Come to Beijing with the banner of redress!" She wanted to scold Duan Dizhi for trapping her injustice, but wasn't she the one who allowed her to ask her to do this before?It was as if he had really raised a hound and allowed it to be violent, and now it killed the prey he didn't want it to kill.

"Whatever the palace wants, you can just give it. Let Dali Temple have full authority to investigate, and nothing can be found anyway. When the things found out are full of storms, then ask the palace to clean it up." Duan Dizhi said lightly, just like every time before The operation ended as reported by Zeng Jingzhao.Zeng Jingzhao was noncommittal, and just said: "You tell me from the beginning, every word, and don't miss it." It seemed that she had an intuition that Duan Dizhi was going to lie to her.

An Zhishun found Duan Jing when he was leaving, and followed him all the time, judging that he was going to Jiang Xia to find Cheng Su, and immediately arranged for someone to guard Cheng Su.Sure enough, the gentleman on the beam saw Duan Jing in ambush and handed the letter and gift to Cheng Su.Cheng Su trembled while reading the letter, threw the letter aside, said something to Duan Jing in a low voice, Duan Jing looked lost, Cheng Su kindly asked him to rest for a day before leaving; Cheng Su was afraid of being seen, and was I personally sent Duan Jing to the next place, but the letter was too late to be burned. The school officer who was sent turned over and took out the secret potion of their school office, easily rubbed the letter, took away the original, and kept the extension.This potion is a secret recipe that Duan Dizhi learned from the red silk girl when he established the Bi An School Office. It is extremely difficult for an uninformed layman to distinguish the difference.Unaware and terrified, Cheng Su burned the fake letter immediately without reading it when he came back.An Zhishun learned the news outside Jiangxia City, and immediately reported the information to Duan Dizhi.It happened that Duan Di's people were inspecting Xiangyang as usual.Upon hearing the news, he immediately planned to assassinate Zeng Yunzhao and set the blame on Duan Jing.

She first looked for the red silk girl, and wanted to quickly find someone in the Jianghu who was similar in stature to Duan Jing, and they were responsible for changing her appearance, as long as this person went to the government to assassinate Zeng Yunzhao.He also asked Hong Linger to ask for Guixi powder, which caused people to feign death.When Duan Jing left Jiang Xia and walked halfway, he was robbed.Hong Lingnu lived up to her trust, and happened to find Guan Pingyuan, who looked like a human being and was also good at using throwing knives, in the rivers and lakes.Guan Pingyuan committed a crime against his enemies and was being hunted down. This time, Hong Lingnu and Duan Dixia saved their lives.So on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Duan Dizhi personally lay in ambush outside the palace wall, waited for Guan Pingyuan to enter the assassination, killed Duan Jing, threw the body inside, killed the deputy head of the guard who happened to come, and pretended to be a fight between the two.leave again.Although her qinggong was not as good as Mo Yebo's, but the anti-reconnaissance methods of leaving no traces, the school affairs office was proficient in this way, so there was no problem.After the matter was completed, Guan Pingyuan got a thousand taels of gold and left.

"He's gone?! You let him go?!" Zeng Jingzhao asked with rounded eyes, "Of course not. I asked An Zhishun to kill someone." Zeng Jingzhao still had doubts on his face, and Duan Dizhi walked towards her slowly Calmly said: "It's burned into charcoal."

The two looked at each other, Zeng Jingzhao's eyes were suspicious, but Duan Dizhi was very calm, as if she was just stating the facts without hiding anything.From time to time, Zeng Jingzhao sighed, "Forget it...forget it, it's a done deal." Duan Dizhi nodded, "In the future, such a thing, without my permission, must not be done!" She was still furious, and Duan Dizhi frowned and nodded, "In the future, such a thing will never happen again. Again." Zeng Jingzhao sneered, "How do you know that?" "Could it be that you still want to have another Jiangling King?" Zeng Jingzhao sighed sarcastically instead: "After your plot, it is hard to guarantee that there will be no daring ones to take advantage of the situation."

In fact, she just wanted Duan Dizhi to admit his mistake, and she felt that Duan Dizhi had caused a lot of trouble for her. She didn't want to really blame her, but she wanted Duan Dizhi to admit her mistake.

Duan Dizhi's eyes suddenly became cold, looking at a certain void, as if looking at the prey to be slaughtered: "It's not afraid of death." She clenched her fist with her right hand, and pressed her left hand on the handle of the knife as if she was ready to kill at any time.Zeng Jingzhao suddenly wondered if what she had asked Bi An to do all these years was wrong. "Dizhi, we have killed enough people." Sitting on the dragon chair, she felt tired, shook her head and said, "Too many."

There was a moment of silence.The quiet air fell on the person like a weight, making it difficult to breathe.Although it was late autumn, Duan Dizhi felt a chill, remembering what the red silk girl said to him in Xiangyang, to be precise, it was a quarrel.

"She's been using you all the time! Why don't you understand! If the matter is revealed, you will be pushed to take the blame! Could it be that she, the emperor, will sacrifice herself?!" The red silk girl was just sitting opposite her holding a wine glass In the next second, he slapped the table and quarreled with her.They sat in the dark of the hotel, and there was no one on the street.In the middle of the night, Duan Dizhi proposed someone to her, and she agreed at first, but the more she thought about it, the more wrong she became.Duan Dizhi invited her to drink the best wine as usual, perhaps the best and strongest wine, which finally made her unable to hold back her anger, and she said mercilessly like a knife: "You have done so many dirty things for her If in the past, with the emperor's order, he could make a decent crime, nothing serious would happen! But compared to blaming the emperor, people are more willing to blame eagles and dogs! Now, if this matter is accidentally exposed, it will be all Your fault! When the emperor pushes everything to you, what will happen to you?! Those bullshit ministers in the court will bite you to death like wild dogs!!"

Duan Dizhi remained silent, and the red silk girl only saw her face reddened by the candlelight, still calm and cold.She felt powerless and desperate, but this time she couldn't just sit idly by, the spirits bewitched her sincerity even more: "She bewitches you with love and beauty, why can't you tell the difference?! Do you have to wait until she orders to kill you?" head?!"

"shut up!"

Duan Dizhi stopped her from drinking, and tightly squeezed the wine glass with his fingers.There was no one else on the second floor, only a few school officials sitting downstairs as guards.When she roared, the surroundings became even more silent.Everyone's breathing and heartbeat can be heard.Duan Dizhi seems to be someone who never gets angry. She either ignores it or kills her directly.Hong Lingnu knew even more that Duan Dizhi never said anything harsh to her and Mo Yebo.

"Dizhi," "Don't say it." Duan Dizhi waved his hand, "I'll pretend that you haven't said this today, and I haven't heard of it. From now on, don't say it again." "Why are you so stubborn?! You are so smart It's so powerful, how have you ever let someone else down, why don't you know how to protect yourself?!" "Yantao!" Duan Dizhi lowered his tone, as if pleading, but the red silk girl was unmoved, but became even more anxious: "Where is Zeng Jingzhao? Okay, let you do this for her?! You have been in danger several times, and you have to pay for your life?!" Speaking of the pain point, the frantic red silk girl threw the wine glass out of her hand, drew out her saber and pointed at her. The tables and chairs of the store were hacked.It seems that these logs are the stubborn Duan Dizhi, and the hateful Zeng Jingzhao.Duan Dizhi hurriedly got up and walked over to grab her wrist. The red silk woman got up and was used to fighting on weekdays. She put the blade on her neck with her backhand.The red silk girl once heard people say that the ancient demon method can kill this person, bring her body back to a certain place, and cast some kind of spell to bring her back to life and fall in love with you forever.The only disadvantage is not that the risk is too great, but that the resurrected person may be just a walking corpse, which just satisfies some people's desire to have everything they want.

She really wanted to kill her and take her away.But she didn't want to lose her soul either.She couldn't bear it.

Duan Dizhi grabbed her wrist, felt her heart beating extremely fast, he was anxious, angry and worried, his heart was in a mess; suddenly seeing the red silk girl's eyes turned red and she shed tears, her heart ached, Then she let go: "Yantao..." Hong Lingnu turned around, put away the knife, took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, "That's all..."

They are no longer young playmates, are they?Going after those things that expired when you were young is destined to be impossible to get.

"Gui Xi San will be delivered at the second watch... After a while, Guan Pingyuan will arrive." Duan Dizhi nodded, and said to the back of the red silk girl, "Thank you." The red silk girl turned around and looked at She, with tears still on her face, said, "If you want to do anything, you must tell me."

At that time, she said yes.At this moment, she looked at Zeng Jingzhao's exhausted expression, and what the red silk girl said echoed like a spell.Hong Lingnv reluctantly apologized to her afterwards, said something drunk for a while, and hoped she would not take it to heart.She said no.But she has such a good memory that she never forgets.She just didn't want to believe it.

"Everyone who deserves to die is dead. Those who don't deserve to die," paused, "are already dead. If you don't need to kill them in the future, don't kill them." Zeng Jingzhao shook his head, "I hope so. I hope so."
