Chapter 155: Kill Jing Ge! Capture Fei Jie! Emperor Qing massacres Guangxin Palace! (13)
Suburbs of Kyoto.
On the only way from Kyoto Road to Dongshan Road, a hundred black-armored soldiers were galloping on their horses.
These people were the Black Cavalry from the Fifth Division of the Inspection Institute. Among the Black Cavalry was an old man with a plump figure and fluffy hair, who was escorting them.
The Black Cavalry under the command of Chen Pingping, the King of Darkness, is known to be the most valiant cavalry in the world.
The old man escorted by the Black Knights was none other than Fei Jie, the head of the Third Division of the Inspection Institute, who was known as the best poisoner in the world.
Fei Jie had just finished an important task and was heading to Danzhou Port and then take a boat to Dongyi City.
Then, via the sea route of Dongyi City, we will head to another continent in this world.
"Uu! Uu!"
Suddenly, the knight galloping in front stopped his horse.
Fei Jie asked in surprise, "Commander Jing, who is that in front?"
The one who personally escorted Fei Jie away from the continent this time was the Black Cavalry's commander Jing Ge.
A hundred feet ahead of the black cavalry, two white torrents slowly merged, blocking the only way to Dongshan Road.
The man came with a white horse and white armor, holding a silver spear and a long sword, and carrying a hard bow.
Those white horses have strong bodies, with well-defined muscles on their abdomens and thighs!
The long spears reflected the light brightly, and these knights in white armor and white horses looked like gods!
Jing Ge looked at the general standing in the front on horseback, and his expression suddenly became serious.
"Po Lu Hou Ye Wan!"
"The King of Qin's Great Snow Dragon Rider!"
After the triumphal meeting, Ye Wan was conferred the title of Marquis of Po Lu and Uesugi Tora was conferred the title of Earl of Ping Yuan.
Because Uesugi Tora was a surrendered general, while Ye Wangen was a legitimate heir.
However, Uesugi Tora didn't care at all. In his life, he only admired capable people, first Han Xin and later Li Changan.
As for whether he was a marquis or an earl, Uesugi Tora really didn't care. The two thousand-mile raids had already fulfilled his lifelong dream of fighting against foreign races.
The ones stopping the Black Cavalry now were none other than the 200 Great Snow Dragon Cavalry led by Ye Wan himself.
"Teacher Fei from the Inspection Institute, after doing such a shocking thing, are you going to sneak away like this?"
Fan Xian's teacher Fei Jie prepared a unique pill for the Crown Prince.
This pill can cure syphilis, which is difficult to cure in this era, but it also contains a lot of strong and dangerous drugs.
The palace maid delivering embroidered cloth, the palace maid going to Guangxin Palace, and the palace maid stealing the jade pendant were all arranged by Hong Zhu at the request of Li Changan.
In fact, the palace maid really just gave the embroidery cloth and really just stole the jade pendant, she knew nothing.
However, the shrewd and suspicious, sharp and conceited Emperor Qing still discovered the prince's affair himself.
What Li Changan did is the same as what Fan Xian did in the original novel.
Just a slight spark was lit and Emperor Qing's suspicion started to burn.
Fei Jie researched a pill recipe, which was sold to Huichuntang by his disciples and then passed on to the prince by a royal noble.
The entire line was personally controlled by Chen Pingping, in order to promote the incest between the prince and Li Yunrui.
Chen Pingping has been conducting a comprehensive investigation of Li Changan, and is just waiting for the limelight of Li Changan's great achievements to fade before he begins to report Li Changan for treason.
This is both Emperor Qing's intention and Chen Pingping's original intention.
Chen Pingping promoted the affairs between the Crown Prince and the Princess in order to take revenge on Emperor Qing.
Chen Pingping promoted the fratricide between Emperor Qing and Li Changan, also for revenge against Emperor Qing.
This madman who vowed to kill all the members of the Li royal family has just begun to implement his plan.
The matter of Fei Jie preparing aphrodisiacs is absolutely confidential.
In this world, only Chen Pingping, Fei Jie, and the foresighted Li Changan knew.
Chen Pingping continues to act as Emperor Qing's sword to deal with Li Changan, and Li Changan also has to find a way to deal with Chen Pingping.
Jing Ge didn't know what Fei Jie had done, nor did he know how he had come into conflict with the King of Qin's men.
"General Ye, you should know that the Black Cavalry represents His Majesty!"
Ye Wan sneered, "Wrong! Your team of black riders only represents Chen Pingping himself."
"Do you dare to let His Majesty know about the hidden black cavalry from Shijia Village?"
After hearing these words, Jing Ge already understood the current situation. It's a life-and-death battle!
The King of Qin knew that Chen Pingping was hiding the Black Cavalry.
Jing Ge clenched the spear in his hand and said, "No point in talking any more. Just draw a path!"
Ye Wan raised his right hand and charged forward!
The back row shot arrows, the front row charged, the Snow Divine Horse came galloping, and in a blink of an eye they were fighting with the Black Knights.
Jing Ge was horrified to find that these Great Snow Dragon Riders were all above the sixth rank, and their collective combat power was incredible.
Those silver-gleaming spear tips, made of unknown material, pierced through the black knight's armor very easily.
The fast-charging silver spear pierced the hearts of the black knights one by one!
Then came the close combat, with swords clashing, and the Black Knight's sword was chopped into pieces by the Great Snow Dragon Knight's long sword!
The Black Knights, who were already outnumbered, soon found themselves at a disadvantage.
Fei Jie had already turned his horse around and was galloping away.
However, just after running less than a mile, he saw a figure running towards him holding an iron chain.
The man was very agile and looked like an expert at catching criminals.
"Fei Jie! Stay!"
Xing Yusen, who was already in the middle of the ninth rank, didn't spend much effort to tie Fei Jie up tightly with iron chains.
"Fei Jie! The King of Qin asked me to bring you a message!"
"If you dare to commit suicide, the Shadow Secret Guards will skin Fan Xian alive!"
"Wuzhu is not in Kyoto, so this is not difficult to do."
When Fei Jie heard this, he immediately became furious.
"Xing Yusen, you are the Great Constable of Daqing, how can you act so despicably!"
"When Dean Chen and I were discussing something, we excluded Fan Xian from the discussion. This matter has nothing to do with him!"
Xing Yusen chuckled, "No matter how despicable I am, I never gave the prince an aphrodisiac."
"You are well aware of His Royal Highness Prince Qin's methods, so it's best not to take any chances."
"Just come back with me honestly and explain everything to me. I'll make sure Fan Xian is safe."
Fei Jie, the most venomous man in the world, is unmarried and childless, and his only weakness is his apprentice Fan Xian.
But just one weakness is enough to ruin him.
In a quarter of an hour, almost all of the one hundred black knights were killed, leaving only Jing Ge.
"How on earth did you know the whereabouts of the Black Riders?"
Jing Ge, who had several spears pointed at his throat, still had no idea how the Black Cavalry, whose whereabouts were kept secret, had been leaked.
Luowang started to infiltrate the Inspection Institute four years ago. The last time there was a major internal turmoil in the Inspection Institute, it helped many Luowang members to gain power.
Moreover, Li Changan only lays hidden chess pieces, which are not activated at ordinary times and are only activated at this critical moment.
Ye Wan did not answer him, but gave an order, "Send Commander Jing on his way!"
Several spears fired at the same time, and the Black Cavalry commander Jing Ge died.
The Great Snow Dragon Riders dragged the Black Riders' bodies into the mountains and buried them, making it impossible for anyone to find their whereabouts in a short time.
A secret base of Luowang in the suburbs of Beijing.
Fei Jie was taken into an underground cell by Xing Yusen. When he entered the cell, he saw a shadow walking towards him.
Shadow had his acupoints sealed by Li Changan using his true qi, and now he has become a disabled person.
Fei Jie and Yingzi, these two people did a lot of dirty things for Chen Pingping.
Just digging out a few of them would be enough for Emperor Qing to have Chen Pingping executed by slicing.
Xing Yusen pinned Fei Jie in the cell and asked him to explain what he had done with poison over the years.
Fei Jie could not believe that Xing Yusen did not use any means to force a confession, and directly showed Fei Jie some written confessions. After reading the confessions, Fei Jie was dumbfounded!
All the not-so-glorious things he and the Third Office had done were written down clearly.
Some were provided by undercover agents from three places, and others were known to Li Changan through his foresight.
"Fei Jie, take a look and press your fingerprints.
Or I should knock you out and help you press your fingerprints!"
Fei Jie said angrily, "Bullshit, I didn't even admit it, why do you need to put your fingerprints on it?"
Xing Yusen was not in a hurry. "Old man, think about it slowly. Is it useful to struggle? Is it useful to resist?"
Xing Yusen then walked out of the cell, saying before leaving, "If you dare to commit suicide, I will skin Fan Xian alive!"
The shadow arrived in a spacious room where Li Changan was sitting behind a desk.
"I never thought that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin is actually the Grand Master!"
Last year, the Nanqing delegation went to the State of Qi and fought a battle in the stone forest on the border. Shadow was knocked unconscious by Li Changan's innate energy.
Shadow discovered that the other party was a grandmaster, but he kept his mouth shut.
Li Changan said calmly, "You were smart not to tell Chen Pingping about the discovery of the new Grand Master."
"Do you think that if the Grand Master spared your life, he might help you kill Si Gu Jian for revenge?"
Shadow did not deny it. "Since the Grand Master has hidden his identity, if I were to say anything, I would only be asking for trouble."
"As for the revenge you mentioned, I do have that thought."
"I joined Chen Pingping's team just to cover up my identity and find an opportunity for revenge!"
Shadow’s enemy is the grandmaster of Dongyi City, Si Gu Jian.
Si Gu Jian's mother was a maid in the Dongyi City Lord's Mansion. He suffered discrimination in Dongyi City since he was a child.
Later, with Ye Qingmei's guidance, Si Gu Jian made great progress in martial arts and even became a grandmaster.
Therefore, Si Gu Jian, for revenge on the one hand, and to break through the limits of martial arts on the other hand, massacred the Dongyi City Lord's Mansion with blood.
However, he left behind his younger brother, Shadow.
All of Yingzi's relatives were killed by his brother, so he determined to take revenge.
Li Changan said, "Chen Pingping can help you cover up your identity, but she is not able to help you get revenge."
"Chen Pingping's successor Fan Xian has Wu Zhu by his side, but Si Gu Jian and Ye Qingmei are friends, so Fan Xian is unlikely to help you get revenge."
Killing Si Gu Jian for revenge has always been Shadow's obsession.
"Your Highness the Prince of Qin is willing to help me. What are your conditions?"
Li Changan said to Xing Yusen, "Show Fei Jie's confession to Yingzi."
Xing Yusen handed the confession of Fei Jie, which he had copied several times, to Yingzi.
Yingzi and Fei Jie both worked for Chen Pingping separately, and they didn't know what they had done with each other.
"Dean Chen is finished. His Majesty will never tolerate him again just for drugging the Crown Prince."
Li Changan said, "Shadow, I will give you two options."
"First, like Fei Jie, tell me everything you did for Chen Pingping, and I will help you get revenge."
"Second, continue to be Chen Pingping's loyal dog and go to the underworld to meet your family."
"After so many years, you have almost repaid his kindness in taking you in."
Shadow suddenly sneered, "If I confess, will I still be able to survive?"
Li Changan said, "You are different from Fei Jie. You are still useful. I will arrange for you to escape."
Li Changan believed that Yingzi wanted to survive and wanted to avenge his family.
So, he will confess sooner or later.
The six swordsmen were all trained since childhood, and Li Changan did not insert any undercover agents.
Therefore, Shadow himself has to explain.
In the palace.
Last month, the prince's personal physician died suddenly, and the prince thought it was an accident.
But this month, the nobleman who sent him medicine fell off his horse and died, and the pharmacy where he bought the medicine caught fire.
No matter how slow he was, Li Chengqian knew something was wrong.
Moreover, it was the thing he least wanted others to know!
But he didn't know who was investigating, nor did he know what the other party knew.
He didn't even dare to go to Li Yunrui to discuss what to do.
He really couldn't imagine how furious his father would be if he knew about that!
In the past month, the prince always felt that his father looked at him with particularly cold eyes.
Comparing various signs, Li Chengqian's ominous premonition became stronger and stronger!
During these few days, three palace maids made minor mistakes. Li Chengqian, who was already suffering from neurasthenia, beat them up and kicked them out.
What he didn't know was that these three palace maids were all from Luowang.
Li Changan secretly withdrew all the people stationed in the East Palace because they were about to face the wrath of Emperor Qing.
In Guangxin Palace.
Several palace maids went out to buy things and never returned.
Li Yunrui concluded that he must have been captured and tortured by the emperor or the Inspection Bureau.
In fact, they were all spies from the Inspection Institute or Luowang, and had received orders from their respective masters to evacuate Guangxin Palace as soon as possible.
The Luowang members who escaped from the Eastern Palace and Guangxin Palace were immediately sent to the northwest, away from Kyoto.
Li Yunrui, who was equally uneasy, was slightly calmer than the prince.
She believed that her brother the emperor would not kill her because she was still useful.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard outside the palace gate.
The female official Bai Ling rushed in hurriedly, "Your Highness, Eunuch Hong is here and has surrounded Guangxin Palace!"
Then, both of them heard screams outside.
All the palace maids and eunuchs had their heads chopped off the moment they opened their mouths to speak.
This is Emperor Qing's order. Whoever speaks will die.
The palace gate opened and Hong Sixiang walked into the hall with his body bent.
Several female personal officials of the seventh and eighth ranks were killed instantly by Hong Sixiang's smashing of their chests with a single palm strike.
Until only Li Yunrui and Bai Ling were left in the entire hall.
Bai Ling knew that he was no match for Hong Sixiang, so he hugged Li Yunrui's thigh and begged desperately.
"Your Highness, save me, Your Highness, save me..."
However, Hong Sixiang suddenly appeared in front of Li Yunrui like a ghost.
With no expression on his face, he grabbed Bai Ling's hair and twisted her head off before she could resist.
In the huge Guangxin Palace, more than thirty eunuchs and palace maids were all killed.
Hong Sixiang still had a respectful look on his face, "Your Highness, the Princess, the palace is still short of a few maids."
Li Yunrui sneered, "Maybe, you can ask Chen Pingping."
Hong Sixiang didn't say anything more, but walked out of Guangxin Palace and stood guard at the palace gate.
I watched as the inner court guards carried the palace maid's body onto a carriage and sent it to the crematorium.
The carriage was dripping with blood along the way, and the young eunuch following behind covered the blood with yellow soil and cleaned it carefully.
After a while, the carriage left, and there was no trace of the blood.
Li Yunrui slumped to the ground and said sternly, "Eunuch Hong, I want to see the Queen Mother!"
In the Hanguang Palace not far away, the Queen Mother had been sleeping for an hour.
The young eunuch from Luowang secretly took out some medicinal powder and sprinkled it on the calming incense burner in the hall.
It's bound to be a busy night, so let the old lady sleep a little longer.
