Volume 9 Chapter 33 In the name of the Nie family
Qin State, Qin's Ranch, Big Tent.
Looking at the corpse of Yin and Bronze, all the core figures of the Nie family were present, revealing a look of indignation. This is a false accusation, a person with silver and bronze, how could he assassinate Lin Sheng?
The relationship between Lin Sheng and Yingzheng may not be known to others, but the Nie family, who has been dealing with Lin Sheng all the year round, naturally knows it very clearly. If Yintong wants to assassinate Lin Sheng, there are too many opportunities, because he often goes to Yihuan Courtyard, and he has also discussed many things with Lin Sheng in the secret room, and there are really too many opportunities for assassination.
Taking a step back, even if he really wanted to kill Lin Sheng, it would be impossible for Yin Tong to kill him in front of outsiders, let alone contact other masters to besiege Lin Sheng. Even if it is killed, it is impossible to use the Nie family's swordsmanship, Yin Bronze is the instructor of the Nie family, and he can't be different from this truth.
The Nie family is an out-and-out assassination group, from their ancestors to the present, what they do is assassination, this is an assassin family. Every time you do a task, if you don't want others to know, after killing the target, you will clean up the scene and not be found out, how can you leave such obvious traces of the Nie family's swordsmanship.
Seeing Ying Zheng carrying Lin Sheng's body back to the palace without saying anything to the Nie family, many people were uneasy and at a loss for the future. They know better than anyone the importance of Lin Sheng to Yingzheng, and even many of them are doing tasks, and they are afraid that the news will come back late, so they will ask Lin Sheng to spread the news.
Jin Tong said indignantly: "This is a frame-up, this is a frame-up deliberately created by some people in the palace who covet the position of the commander of the eldest sister's ranch." Yin Bronze is not a stupid person, he obviously heard that someone was not good for Lin Sheng, and ran to rescue him alone, it must be some people in the palace who deliberately said something to make him make a great contribution, so he would go. ”
"I can even guess that person must have said something like silver and bronze that can deal with it, and if he kills some of the subordinates of the North Palace, he can save Lin Sheng's life. And my family Yinbronze, naively thought that the person in the palace would not lie to him. But now it seems that people are small enough to harm him, and framing my entire Nie family is the main goal. ”
"The eldest sister has been driven out of the palace, if it wasn't for the king who rescued her with the precious immortal wine, she would have died a long time ago. I don't understand, it's so far away from the Qin Palace, why do some people still want to harm the eldest sister? What about our Nie family? ”
"And the palace maid who bewitched the silver and bronze actually committed suicide by throwing herself into the well, and there is no proof of death, and we have no reason to justify this disaster. Eldest sister, we must enter the palace at once and explain this matter to the king. With the relationship between the eldest sister and the king, the king must believe in us. ”
Xibu in the big tent looked at the corpse of silver and bronze, and said with a heartache: "The king will believe us, and the entire Praetorian Guard can testify, with silver and bronze, it is impossible to assassinate Sister Lin Sheng." I still don't understand, why did the Silver and Bronze Brothers go to Yihuan Yuan? Every time I went, I would greet Zero Yu and me in advance, and he not only ran alone, but also died there, without any warning at all. ”
"Silver and Bronze spend most of his time training with us on the ranch, and he rarely goes out, so how can he hook up with those assassins of unknown origin? Even if he wanted to get in touch, he didn't have that chance, especially since he hadn't left the ranch for three months before going out this time. If he had any contact with outsiders in the ranch, it would be impossible for the Blood Fan Mansion not to give a warning. ”
The sericulture woman sitting at the bottom said: "Xibu is right, if there is a person of unknown origin in the pasture, even if it is a transmission, the people on the boat will remind Ling Yu and Xibu." Yin Yue and Zhong He often go back and forth, and I always keep an eye on every move in the ranch, in case a strong man like Mo Wu'an comes to the ranch again. Yin Bronze has indeed not been out for three months, and there has been no transmission of other masters. ”
"Silver and bronze have the most contact with the outside world, and only Lin Sheng and Mi Run are talking about ranch armament training. If Yin Bronze wants to kill Lin Sheng, I won't believe it anyway, because he has too many opportunities to kill Yin Copper, so he doesn't have to kill it at this time. What's more, he still has a family on the ranch, so he can't risk the entire Nie family. ”
Sitting on the main seat, Zero Yu was very painful in his heart, but he couldn't show it, at this time, Zero Yu meditated silently, he couldn't mess up, and he couldn't panic. After the Nie family and the Praetorian Guard got along for such a long time, many contradictions were calmed down, and seeing that the two families were about to become one, many people from the Praetorian Guard married women from the Nie family, and many Nie brothers married sisters from the Praetorian Guard brothers' family, as long as there was a little more time, the ranch would become a monolith.
But at this juncture, when such a thing happens, it must not be chaotic, and it is necessary to think of a proper way of preservation.
Ling Yu, who had been silent for a long time, listened to everyone talking in the big tent, and said bitterly: "What is the use of the king's belief? If others don't believe it, the worst consequence for my Nie family can only move out of the ranch and avoid the results of the investigation. ”
"The investigation will definitely be investigated, and the people from the fast camp will be sent to investigate, and we can't interfere. But the palace maid was dead, and there was no proof of her death, and during this period, in order to allow the ranch to train normally, the Nie family and the brothers of the Praetorian Guard could only be separated. ”
Xibu was dumbfounded, shook his head desperately, and said, "How can that work?" Many training plans require the cooperation of the Nie family. Even if the Silver and Bronze Brothers die, the training plan must be carried out on time, otherwise the effect of the battle formation will not be detected at all. ”
Jin Tong's mind was lively, and he understood what Ling Yu meant, and suddenly said: "What does the eldest sister mean, the palace will continue to arrange the training of the Praetorian Guards, and my Nie family will be imprisoned until the day when the results are found out?" ”
Ling Yu said sadly: "What else can I do?" Even if the king believes us, no one else will believe us. As long as someone raised it, especially the people in the Zhong Palace, Lin Ye didn't dare to arrange the problematic Nie family near the Praetorian Guard. ”
"The Praetorian Guard is the king's descendant troops, and the Nie family is just an assassin group, which is more important, and anyone with a discerning eye knows how to do it. Even if the king is unwilling, he can't stop the other people's tongues, how can he speak for us before the matter is clarified? I can't explain why Yintong appeared in Yihuan Courtyard and died in the secret room. ”
"Lin Sheng's death was so miserable, the king didn't get angry, he took out the silver and bronze and whipped the corpse, he is already a very rational king, we can't take the request of whether the Nie family is imprisoned, you trouble him. Monarchs sometimes can't help themselves, and they must know how to balance in order to achieve great things. ”
"What I can do now is to find out the murderer behind the scenes and clear my family's silver and copper suspicions. By the way, I will unite with the people who are willing to support me, and let those people not talk in the ears of the king and say something about the disloyalty of the Nie family. This is also an opportunity, often the icing on the cake, less use of charcoal in the snow. Through this time, I was able to see thoroughly which forces were willing to support me and which ones were not in line with me. ”
Bowing her head and thinking about one plan after another, the corners of her mouth were transmitted, and the sericulture girl widened her eyes when she heard it, and shook her head desperately: "No, Childe's order is not like this, you can't do this?" That's too risky. ”
Zero Yu smiled bitterly: "This is the only way to make the murderer behind the scenes exposed, for the sake of the Nie family, I have to do this." Anyway, I've already died several times in this life, and I don't care about dying one more time. ”
The silkworm girl frowned and said, "If you die again, the son will not have the immortal wine to save you." Lin Sheng just died, if you have another accident, Childe will really go crazy, otherwise I will be close to protect you. ”
Zero Yu said: "What should be paid must be paid, and those who don't know how to return are useless." ”
The silkworm girl said: "I must tell Gongzi immediately, I dare not hide this matter from him." If you leave the ranch range, I can't follow you anymore, and without your protection, it's easy to die. ”
Zero Yu said: "I have made up my mind, I can't do it if I don't do it." If someone really came to assassinate me, with the sense of smell of Gong Ming and the others, they would definitely be able to trace some clues. I am the head of the Nie family, the head of the assassin group, so I naturally understand the thoughts of those peers, and it is difficult for the other party to not be tempted. ”
At the same time, he said to the Nie family in the big tent: "From now on, without the order of Xibu, everyone is confined at home, including gold and copper. If anyone dares to disobey the order, Xibu will be killed directly. At the same time, the Praetorian Guards surrounded the entire Nie family, and all the core figures of the Nie family were not allowed to leave the big tent. ”
"When I go out, I stay out for a maximum of three days. If I don't come back for three days, it means that I am dead, but the Nie family will clear the suspicion. If I really die, Jin Tong will take over the position of the head of the family and assist Yin Yue to grow, and don't think about revenge. The future of the Nie family is all determined by the king, understand? ”
Everyone in the big tent looked panicked, and Jin Tong asked directly, "Where is my sister going?" ”
Zero Yu smiled mysteriously, and said firmly: "When I walk out of the ranch, you will naturally know. You must remember that no one is allowed to follow, and if anyone dares to follow, Xibu will be killed directly. ”
Xibu said honestly: "Please be careful, Sister Lingyu, you are the commander of the ranch, your orders are the greatest, and no one dares to disobey." ”
Hearing this, Zero Yu smiled gently, waved his sleeves, and walked out of the big tent.
Looking back at the people of the Nie family who wanted to get out of the tent in the big tent, but didn't dare, Ling Yu smiled and said: "I'll be fine, you must remember, before I come back, you are not allowed to step out of the door." ”
He looked at the bloody boat on the riverside again, the smile on his face disappeared, revealing a look of reluctance, and without hesitation, he boarded a carriage, drove out of the pasture and disappeared into the distance under the gallop of the groom.
As soon as he drove out of the pasture, a tall flag was displayed on the carriage, a flag with the word 'Nie', which could be seen by people several miles away. When this flag was raised, the Nie family members in the ranch gasped and showed uneasiness.
The meaning of this flag has a very long history in the rivers and lakes, but whenever the flag is played, it means that the leader of a certain force has something important to go out, and the peers he meets on the way must be convenient. Of course, if you have a grudge against that force, you will attack it with all your might.
Such an act is tantamount to a provocation for hostile forces. Therefore, whether it is Wang Heng, or Li Ji and other family leaders, when they are walking outside, they will not display their own signboard banners.
Ling Yu played such a banner, which is to borrow a convenient way for all walks of life in the rivers and lakes in the name of the Nie family. Many peers smiled when they saw this scene, the Nie family was originally very weak, but since Ling Yu became the woman of Yingzheng, he has not offended any force in the rivers and lakes, so he naturally will not stop it.
Once anyone makes an assassination halfway at this time, it represents a certain force declaring war on the Nie family, and the two forces will fight for a long time in the future until one side collapses.
Among them, some people thought of the matter of Yihuan Temple, understood Zero Yu's behavior, and looked at it meaningfully. Because they know that someone will definitely make a move. In the world of assassins, since he dared to assassinate Lin Sheng, and let Yintong die in the secret room, he would definitely dare to assassinate Zero Yu. If you don't even have the guts, you won't be called a true assassin, and you will be despised by your peers.
In the name of the Nie family, who will go to challenge?
People couldn't help but look at the ranch, and the information sent back by countless spies was not accompanied by any other master except for Zero Feather and a groom. It is estimated that such an assassination opportunity will not be available again in the future except today.
If Zero Feather doesn't die, then it will be difficult to carry out assassinations against her in the future. The carriage drove so far, even if King Yingzheng of Qin got the news and sent a strong man to protect it, it would be too late. It can be calculated from the speed of the carriage that even if the peak and the best are chased, it will be difficult to catch up in an hour.
Qin Palace, in front of the wordless monument of Huayang Palace, Ying Zheng also heard the transmission of the silkworm girl, his face became pale, he understood what Ling Yu wanted to do, and he also knew what she wanted to clarify.
Ying Zheng said bitterly: "Yu'er, you risked your own life, do you just want to clear the suspicion of the Nie family?" I have never doubted the loyalty of the Nie family, you just don't want to make it difficult for me, and in the name of the Nie family, you just gag other people's mouths. ”
Zero Yu's move is very dangerous, but it is also the most evidence that can clarify the innocence of silver and copper. Although it has not yet been found out why Yintong appeared in Yihuan Courtyard, Zero Yu waved the banner of the Nie family, and in the name of the Nie family, told everyone in the Central Plains that Yintong was innocent and not an assassin who killed Lin Sheng.
Zero Yu can say this, and other forces follow suit, and in a short period of time, many forces have used their own ways to transmit their voices to Ying Zheng's ears.
Among them, there are envoys from various countries in the Qin State, representing their respective voices, and narrating something. He said that the assassins of Chu were not sent by him; Zhao Jia said that he was still on the way back to China, and it was impossible for him to give him a hundred guts and not return to Daicheng and send assassins to assassinate him; Hou Sheng represents the king of Qi, and it is impossible to kill Lin Sheng's head if he says who he kills.
In short, for a while, all the forces on the rivers and lakes said the same thing. Even Yan Dan, who was far away in Yan Country and crossed the Yishui River, also heard a voice saying that he was not even enough to protect himself now, how could he dare to be contaminated with the consequences of killing Lin Sheng.
Pulling a hair and moving the whole body, in the name of the Nie family, all the forces were moved, and Zero Yu's purpose was achieved, and even Chenxi, Gong Ming and others who were still in Yihuan Courtyard had to admire Zero Yu's wisdom.
But they are also worried about Zero Yu, and now she is really alone.
