Chapter 320 Destroying the Death Squad
Two days later, Su Qian came out of the Dali Temple, followed by Xue Ke and Dian Feng, and got on a carriage heading towards Xie Fangyuan.
There has been new progress in the Lu Jing case.
In front of the Dali Temple, someone hung a booklet on the drum of complaint early in the morning. The bailiffs took it in and showed it to Lord Zhuang. It turned out to be more account books of buying and selling official positions. Lord Zhuang presented the account books to the emperor. The emperor was so angry that he threw another paperweight, but kept the account books.
If all the officials in the account books were taken down, the Da Qi court would be in turmoil, so they can only be punished slowly in secret, which is also a powerful tool to control these officials.
Lord Zhuang obtained several addresses and reported them to the emperor. He then joined forces with the Ministry of War and the Imperial Guards, blocked the news and launched a surprise attack at night. At the same time, a mysterious masked man joined in to assist, and in one fell swoop, all five secret camps hiding the assassins were destroyed.
Because they were prepared in advance, these assassins were knocked unconscious before they had time to commit suicide. When they woke up, they knew that their entire army was wiped out. It didn't matter whether they lived or died, so they could only be dealt with as they pleased.
In the carriage, Jiang Baipin, wearing a red robe and stretching his long legs, sat away from Su Qianqian with a wary look in his eyes, reporting his work to Su Qianqian.
"I don't understand why Big Brother would listen to you and do so many things for you. Big Brother retired from society for so many years, but he came out again for you. What kind of medicine did you give Big Brother?"
Jiang Baipin couldn't help but question Su Qian.
"What drug I gave him is none of your business. Young Master, just do your job well and don't let me give you any drugs."
Su Qianqian touched the hair of the peak twice and said lightly.
Dianfeng has grown a little bigger. Its two horns are more than three inches high and have turned golden. It used to be round and cute, but now it has gradually become bony, and is getting closer and closer to its transformed appearance, but not as tall.
Dian Feng had the same expression as Su Qianqian, looking down at Jiang Baipin arrogantly, with his nostrils almost pointing to the sky.
"Hey, a little dog dares to confront this young master..."
"Woo woo..." Peak let out a low growl.
[Although he is called the eldest brother, he is actually almost like his father. The baby that was picked up by Jiang Fan when he was on the verge of death saved his life.
Fortunately, he was gifted and had a good understanding, and he learned kung fu well, and gradually he became like Jiang Fan's own brother.
More than ten years ago, Jiang Fan was hunted by his enemies. In order to protect him from being discovered, he deliberately did not return to his hiding place. As a result, he almost lost his life and was rescued by the old marquis.
Jiang Fan returned to Mingyue Tower and changed his name to Jiang Baipin, "Thousands of ships have passed by, but none of them is the one I'm looking for, my heart is broken at Baipinzhou", probably because he wanted to forget Mr. Qin Erye. 】The system sounded a little low.
Su Qianqian narrowed her eyes and looked at Jiang Baipin. Jiang Baipin's face was dark, and the bright red teardrop mole made him look even more charming.
"Young Master, go back and tell Master Jiang that Su Qian thanks him for his help. Cuiying Tower has some new rare fruits on the market. I have asked him to prepare them for Master Jiang. Just go get them. If you need anything, Su Qian will do his best to help you."
After Su Qianqian finished speaking, she waved her hand to signal him that he could leave, then leaned back on the soft pillow beside the car seat and closed her eyes.
"Well, now I have what I need. Bring me ten thousand taels of silver to buy winter clothes for my brothers."
Jiang Baipin stretched out his hand towards Su Qianqian, and hooked his palm upwards twice.
Su Qianqian opened her eyes slightly and looked at the hand. Jiang Baipin couldn't help but shrink back: This villain is vicious, we must be on guard against him.
[If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten that Prince Ping also said that I owed him ten thousand taels, Weiming Mountain... Could it be that he helped me fight off Prince An's men? I still don’t know why Prince An wants to kill me...】
Su Qianqian rolled her eyes and said, "Ten thousand taels is no problem, but you have to help me check one more thing... Then I will give you twenty thousand taels!"
Jiang Baipin asked unconsciously: "What's the matter?"
As soon as I said this I wanted to bite off my tongue. Who cares? I just don't agree!
"The Daliang people must have their spies in Xijing. Your Mingyue Tower has been operating for so many years, and no one can match you in obtaining information. I want to know if you can intercept the messages between Daliang and these spies, or in other words, dig out these spies?"
Su Qianqian asked with narrowed eyes.
"Mingyue Tower used to only do business in the martial arts world and never involved the imperial court. I can't do what you said. Once I help you investigate this, Mingyue Tower will no longer be able to walk in the martial arts world, but will become a lackey of the imperial court."
Jiang Baipin withdrew his hand, leaned lazily against the car wall, glanced at Su Qianqian, and fiddled with the jade pendant on his waist.
Su Qianqian opened her eyes, propped up her head with her hands and said, "Young Master, please don't miss this opportunity. If I go to ask your elder brother for help, you won't get any money and will be so busy that you will have to work hard. Do you believe it?"
Jiang Baipin's face darkened: "Su Qian, don't go too far. You know that if Mingyue Tower does this, the enemies in the martial arts world will be able to attack it with justification, and the government will never help. At that time, Mingyue Tower will be surrounded by enemies and in danger!"
Su Qianqian blinked. She really didn't understand the rules of the martial arts world. She thought for a moment and nodded:
"Okay, I won't make things difficult for you. I'll find a way to investigate this matter and not bring any trouble to Mingyue Tower. You can go to Cuiying Tower's shopkeeper to withdraw the 10,000 taels you want. Take this as proof."
He took out a small silver plate from his bosom, with three words engraved on one side: Ten Thousand Taels, and on the other side: Su Ji. He handed it to Jiang Baipin and then closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
"Just this, ten thousand taels? You must be lying to me!" Jiang Baipin weighed the small silver plate, somewhat unconvinced.
"Love it or not, if you don't want it, give it back to me!"
Su Qianqian closed her eyes and stretched out her hand. Jiang Baipin quickly put the small silver medal into his arms: "This is also half a tael, better than nothing."
The door curtain was lifted and a gust of cold wind blew in, then everything returned to silence and Jiang Baipin left.
[These assassins were secretly detained and were not allowed to leak the news. The emperor didn't know what to think. No matter what, Lu Jing would never be able to turn things around. It all depended on whether he could save his life. 】
Su Qianqian was thinking about the news she received today. Lord Zhuang did not tell her about the assassination attempt, but he had hinted that the matter would finally come to an end.
[Although Lu Jing doesn't get along with the princess, he is still her biological son. She will always do her best to protect him. It depends on what method she uses...]
The system is a bit lackluster.
[What's going on? Are you going to hibernate again? You have been lacking energy these days and are not even enthusiastic about eating melons! 】
Su Qianqian reminded the system.
[What do you mean by hibernation? People are worried about you. You are forcing the mastermind to show up. It was not easy for me to find you. I wanted to finish the task and lie down, but you turned eating melons into stepping on landmines, and you are playing the game of Startling Every Step...]
The baby voice of the system is sentimental and pretentious.
[Ugh… shut up!] You made me sick of my breakfast. Who did you learn to be so pretentious from...]
Su Qianqian frowned and patted her chest, and was about to continue to mock the system, "Mr. Su, Xie Fangyuan has guests!" Xue Ke suddenly spoke, looking outside the car curtain with a nervous expression.
