Traveling through Yuhuatian, the start of the Sunflower Collection is complete

Chapter 53 Believe in the king, not the master of understanding

thunderbolt--

With the sound of thunder, the originally clear sky was covered with dark clouds in an instant, followed by fine rain, which fell on the street tick-tock, which made people feel the changeable situation.

Lu Wenzhao was walking on the road with his brows tightly furrowed. Yu Huatian's indifferent eyes and murderous words were like a bell in the evening drum and morning, echoing in his ears all the time.

"Ta Tata..."

Unknowingly, the team has arrived at Fusi Yamen in Beizhen.

But when he was about to enter the mansion, Lu Wenzhao stopped suddenly, looked at Shen Lian and the others beside him, and ordered:
"You go to report back to close the case first, I'm going to do something, and I'll be back later."

Hearing this, Shen Lian and the others had doubts in their eyes, but they didn't want to ask too many questions, they cupped their hands and said:

"Yes, my lord."

Lu Wenzhao didn't say much, he turned around and walked in the direction he came from.

The Second Taibao Li Jiang, the Eighth Taibao Huang Chihu and others returned to the mansion together. They all saw Lu Wenzhao approaching the door but then leaving. Seeing this, a strange look flashed in their eyes.

Huang Chihu frowned and said, "What is he going to do?"

Li Jiang laughed and said, "Before at the Eastern Suburb Wharf, I heard that something happened to the treasure ship that the emperor was on during his tour, which caused the emperor to fall into the water and suffer from the wind and cold. At that time, Eunuch Yu made a big fuss and targeted him specifically. Presumably he must have something to do with it."

"Hasn't he always been on missions with us? How can he have the time to do these things?" Huang Chihu was puzzled.

Eleventh Taibao Jiang Yifan sneered and said, "There are some things that you don't have to do yourself. This Lu Wenzhao participated in the Battle of Sarhu, and later joined our Beisi.

"Besides, as Eunuch Yu, there is no reason to target him for no reason, so he probably has something to do with it."

Li Jiang shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity, murdering the emperor, once it is confirmed that this matter is related to him, not only will all the hard work for so many years be in vain, but I'm afraid that death will be ugly..."

Behind them, Lu Jianxing, Shen Lian and others listened to the Shangguan's discussion and did not dare to intervene, but they all looked at each other with a hint of worry and solemnity in their eyes.

...

Naturally, Lu Wenzhao couldn't hear these arguments, and he didn't care to pay attention to them at the moment.

What he wants to know most now is whether the emperor's falling into the water was caused by King Xin?
If so, how did Yuhuatian know?And also know that this matter is related to him?
If this matter is not resolved as soon as possible, not only him, but even King Xin will lose his head, and his years of waiting and planning will also be destroyed.

So he will never be reconciled!
Therefore, his destination was very clear. After leaving Beicheng, he went straight to the mansion of King Xin in the south of the city.

He hurried on the road in the rain, and after a while, he arrived at Prince Xin's Mansion. He turned around and looked carefully for a while, and after making sure that no one was following him, he leaped onto the wall in a flash, and turned into the quiet courtyard.

At this time, at the door of the living room at the back of the courtyard, a figure in red robes stood quietly looking at the rainy scene outside. He was not at all surprised when he saw Lu Wenzhao come in, as if he had already expected him to come.

"My lord!"

Looking at Zhu Youjian who was waiting at the door, Lu Wenzhao hurried forward and bowed his hands in salute.

"Well, I'm back."

Zhu Youjian nodded slightly, with a calm expression.

Seeing Zhu Youjian's impending catastrophe without knowing it, Lu Wenzhao frowned and was about to speak when several people came out of the mansion.

There were one man and two women, the leader was a tall, heroic woman in a white samurai outfit, holding a falling shadow knife; a man and a woman who were slightly younger followed respectfully behind the woman in white. The younger generation of women.

Lu Wenzhao looked at him, his eyes were happy at first, and then he frowned again: "Junior Sister! Taier, Chonger, are you really you?"

This woman in white is Lu Wenzhao's junior sister, Ding Baiying, and behind her are her two apprentices: Ding Tai and Ding Chong.

The three of them didn't notice that Lu Wenzhao's expression was wrong. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and all three of them were happy, and hurried forward to salute:
"Brother!"

"Master!"

Lu Wenzhao looked serious, waved his hands and said, "Don't rush to talk about other things, let me ask you, are you responsible for the case of the emperor's drowning?"

The three of them were startled when they heard this.

Even Zhu Youjian frowned slightly, and asked, "What's the matter? Didn't you recommend Master Ding and the others to help the king? Then this matter was naturally ordered by the king. Although they didn't do it directly, they also They have nothing to do with them. Is something wrong?"

"Big trouble!"

When Lu Wenzhao heard this, his heart sank completely, he gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, this matter..."

"who?!"

Before the words fell, Ding Baiying seemed to have noticed something, turned her head suddenly, looked at a rockery in the yard, and shouted sharply: "Come out!"

The expressions of the rest of the people also changed slightly, and they immediately realized that someone had followed here, and they all turned their heads to look, with alert expressions.

"Tap-"

It didn't take long for them to wait. Since they were discovered, the visitors simply stopped hiding and walked out from behind the rockery.

I saw this person wearing a black samurai uniform, with a big imperial saber on his shoulders, and a ponytail, looking at the three of Ding Baiying with complicated expressions:
"Master, I didn't expect it was really you."

The person who came was Ding Xiu.

"Shuer?"

"Brother!"

Ding Baiying and the others were stunned for a moment, and then they were overjoyed. They quickly relaxed their vigilance and greeted Ding Xiu.

Ding Tai said happily: "Brother, where have you been these days? We have been looking for you for a long time!"

"Don't go there!"

But at this time, Lu Wenzhao was full of surprise and confusion, stopped the three of them, looked at Ding Baiying and said, "Junior Sister, is he your apprentice?"

Ding Baiying was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, senior brother, didn't I tell you that I have taken in four apprentices? Taier and Chonger are the second and third, the eldest is him, his name is Ding Xiu, and There is a fourth child named Ding Xian, but the two of them have a more detached personality, I..."

Before the words finished, Lu Wenzhao's face darkened. He looked back at Ding Xiu and interrupted:

"Junior Sister, do you know the current identity of this person?"

Ding Baiying was puzzled, and also looked at Ding Xiu, frowning and asked: "Xiu'er, what is your identity now?"

Ding Xiu was silent for a moment, but he didn't hide anything: "I'm now the second gear leader of the West Factory."

As soon as this remark came out, the atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

The three of Ding Baiying looked in disbelief, then Ding Baiying was furious, looked at Ding Xiu and shouted: "Xiu'er, I know you have a wild and unruly personality and don't care much about worldly rules, but how can you join Xichang and work for those eunuchs? !"

Lu Wenzhao said with a gloomy expression, "Xichang Changgong Yuhuatian already knew that the prince was responsible for the case of the emperor falling into the water, and also knew that it was related to us, so he sent this person here with me secretly, he must have come to find evidence. "

Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed again.

A trace of murder appeared in Zhu Youjian's eyes: "He has heard too much, and he still works for Xichang, so he must not stay!"

Ding Baiying's heart tightened, and there was a trace of struggle in his eyes. He looked at Ding Xiu and said, "Xiu'er, you still have time to turn around now. As long as you leave Xichang and swear not to tell what you heard today, I will plead with the prince..."

"Master!"

Ding Xiu's gaze turned cold, and he said indifferently, "Since I have already pledged my allegiance to the governor, I will never betray him."

"Besides, I know what you want, Master, but if you want to change the world, it won't work if you assassinate the emperor. This will only make the world more chaotic and the people more miserable!"

"It's not just me who thinks this way. You go and see your beloved little junior brother. He is also serving the court now. Two years ago he killed a Jin Yiwei and took the place of that Jin Yiwei. This uncle is working under his command."

"Ask him, does he want to kill the emperor?"

Ding Baiying trembled and looked at him in disbelief: "You, you..."

There was also a look of surprise in Lu Wenzhao's eyes. Jin Yichuan is a small banner officer under Lu Jianxing's command, and he has a very good relationship with Shen Lian. The three of them are sworn brothers, so it is impossible for him not to know.

But he never thought that one of the two apprentices of his junior sister was working for Xichang, even if he saw him, he would salute, and the other was working under his nose, and he didn't notice it!

Ding Xiu glanced at Lu Wenzhao, and said: "The governor has already mentioned the relationship between you and me, and he also told me that this trustworthy king is definitely not a wise master. Even if he becomes emperor, he can't change anything. If you want to It is the right choice to change this world, to be your Beisi Qianhu, and to serve the supervisor wholeheartedly."

"I can pretend that I didn't hear what you said just now, but with the wisdom of the governor, I will find you one day. If you turn around now, I can plead with the governor and try to save your lives. If you still insist on following If the king of Xin goes to die, the result must be a dead end!"

Zhu Youjian's face turned cold instantly: "Kill him!"

Ding Baiying and his two apprentices turned pale, a little at a loss.

Lu Wenzhao hesitated for a moment, and slowly put his hands on the handle of the knife.

At this time, Ding Xiu glanced at him sarcastically, then looked at Ding Baiying again, bowed his hands, and said:
"Master, we have been working hard for the peace of the world. I am very grateful that you taught me martial arts, but if one day our ideas are really refuted, then this friendship will be cut off."

"I don't want to help the Governor deal with you, but I will never do anything to betray the Governor!"

After all, he gave Zhu Youjian a cold look, turned around, stepped up the wall in two or three steps, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Zhu Youjian's face changed dramatically, he looked at Ding Baiying and the others beside him, and said angrily, "Why didn't you stop him?"

"It's useless."

Ding Baiying's will was depressed, she shook her head and said: "He has a very high talent in martial arts, and he is no weaker than me as early as three years ago. If he wants to leave, none of us can stop him."

Zhu Youjian gritted his teeth: "Then what should we do now? He is now working for Xichang, and he has heard the evidence of our plot. If we don't get rid of him, we will all die!"

Lu Wenzhao said in a deep voice: "Yuhuatian seems to have known for a long time that this matter was done by the prince, and that the person who did this has something to do with a humble job. Even if Ding Xiu doesn't come, I'm afraid he will track down the prince. !"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Zhu Youjian waved his hand: "This king is very secretive about this matter, how could he know?!"

Lu Wenzhao remained silent, and he also wanted to know why.

At this time, Ding Baiying suddenly raised his head, the loneliness and struggle on his face had long since disappeared, replaced by indifference:
"It's too late to say these things now. The top priority is to find a way to destroy the evidence."

"Although this matter was planned by the prince, the prince did not take action directly, and even we did not do it ourselves. The person who made a move on the treasure ship was the eunuch Guo Zhen, the eunuch with the palm seal of the official supervisor in the East Factory. He is our man. But as long as we get rid of him, this clue will be broken."

"Without evidence, even if Yuhuatian investigates, he won't dare to do anything to the prince."

Hearing this, Zhu Youjian's eyes lit up: "Yes, as long as there is no evidence, even if Yuhuatian informs the emperor, the emperor will not believe him. After all, this king is the emperor's younger brother."

As he said that, he looked at Lu Wenzhao beside him as if he was grabbing a life-saving straw, and ordered: "I will leave this matter to you, and the speed must be fast. Before the imperial court starts to investigate this matter, Guo must be eliminated real!"

Next to him, Ding Baiying had been paying attention to his expression. When she saw Zhu Youjian saying that she wanted to get rid of Guo Zhen, there was not even a trace of hesitation in her eyes, only the determination to survive and the resolute killing intent, her heart was cold.

This Guo Zhen, like them, is his only few confidants!
But now, in order to cut off this clue, he is so straightforward to get rid of this confidant, and there is no hesitation or intolerance in his eyes...

It is said that the royal family is ruthless, and it is true!
Now it is Guo Zhen, if one day the court finds them, will he kill them without hesitation like now?
After all, to this king of faith, Guo is really a flaw, and they are also flaws...

Thinking of what Ding Xiu said when he left, Ding Baiying couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Believe in the king, not the master...
