Second marriage to the regent

"Master, are you sure you want to leave this matter to Tang Zhili? My subordinates have doubts about his ability to do things, and his sincerity is almost zero."

Ever since the master wanted Tang Zhili to take over this matter, he, as a subordinate, had always felt bad.

I have worked diligently with my master for so many years, and I have worked hard without any credit. Why should Tang Zhili take away what should be his as soon as he appears?

The masked man in black saw his subordinate's selfishness and jealousy, and immediately slapped him. The subordinate's face was confused, but due to his instinctive reaction, he immediately knelt on the ground.

"Jealousy and jealousy are only for women, but you, a man, spend all your time thinking about how to force useful talents away from me, and even want to get rid of them!"

The subordinate who had his mind exposed immediately retorted: "Master, I know for sure, I never meant this!"

"You mean there's something wrong with my intuition?" The man's aura was so strong that his subordinates looked at the bright sun shining outside, but his body seemed to be enveloped by a layer of cold air.

"Tang Zhili is a good chess piece that I picked out from thousands of people. If he has any shortcomings, save your life and bury him with him!"

After the man finished explaining, he left. It wasn't until his back disappeared that the subordinate slowly raised his head and looked at the direction he left with a look of resentment.

"Tang Zhili, if you want to fight with me, you are still too young!"

He seemed to have a big plan in his mind.

At night, the weather was slightly cooler. Except for a few soldiers who patrolled and sentry on a daily basis, everyone in the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion was sleeping in their rooms. Even Tang Zhili, who was used to staying up all night reading, went to bed surprisingly early tonight.

The cold wind blew the trees in the courtyard, and the heads of the patrolling soldiers fell off as the infusion made a splash.

The sword was stained with blood, and two black figures stood in the courtyard, looking at the familiar courtyard, looking at each other, and then separated.

The maid and the boy had their necks wiped in their sleep. When it was their turn to go to Tang Zhili's room, the two of them were about to make a move when they saw a very familiar figure suddenly appear above Tang Zhili's room.

The two sheathed their swords and flew towards him: "Master."

The man was furious: "You two are so brave! Why did you attack the Jing'an Marquis Mansion?"

The two of them looked at each other and felt confused. They only took action after receiving the order from their master.

Flame: "Master, the two of us received an order from the master today, asking us to immediately get rid of Tang Zhili and everyone in the Jing'an Marquis Mansion tonight."

After hearing this, the man thought it was nonsense. He had never given such an order before, and he immediately suspected that they had two intentions.

Shui Xin knew that his master was suspicious by nature, so he took the note and handed it to the man to read.

When the man looked at the handwriting on the note that was exactly like his own, and the way the message was delivered, he knew there was something wrong internally, and he quickly zeroed in on the suspect.

"Let's not worry about tonight's matter with you two, and leave quickly!" The man's tone was still angry.

Although the two of them didn't understand why the master went back on his words, and his reaction when he saw the note just now, it seemed as if he hadn't written it.

"Don't you think the master is a little strange today?"

On the way back, Huo Yan suddenly asked Shui Xin.

Shui Xin's eyes were filled with resentment: "Just a little bit, just a little bit I can vent my anger on my behalf!"

In the past, Huo Huo would have solved her troubles without hesitation, but now this trouble was being protected by their master, and there was nothing she could do. But Flame suddenly seemed to think of something and said to Shui Xin: "Why do you think the person who sent us the false letter hates Tang Zhili so much?"

"Are you afraid of leaking the secret or endangering your own status?" Shui Xin just said it casually, but Huo Huo thought it made sense.

He said to Shui Xin: "Since you want Tang Zhili dead so much, why not use his hatred for Tang Zhili to solve the troubles in your heart just like this person used us."

Shui Xin has always thought about doing it himself, but now his master's preference for Tang Zhili has become more and more obvious. If he wants to do it, he will be traced out. Why not listen to Huo Yan's suggestion and use this person to achieve his goal?

"It seems that I need to go back to the attic." Shui Xin was about to move.

Upon seeing this, Huo Yan reminded him kindly: "You will definitely alert the enemy when you go back this time, and the master has told me that he should always pay attention to every move of Duke An Guo and Prime Minister Cao these days."

"Prime Minister Cao is about to retire and return to his hometown. Do you still care what he does?" Shui Xin felt that staring at Prime Minister Cao was a waste of time.

"The tiger talisman in his hand is still missing!" They knew the importance of the tiger talisman, so they sent extra personnel to pay close attention to all the activities of these people.

"Gong An Guo has handed over the tiger talisman to Li Junyi. This man is so troublesome that even the owner can't get any benefits. It's just a dream for you and me to get the tiger talisman from him."

Shui Xin felt that it would be even harder to get the Tiger Talisman from Li Junyi.

But after hearing this, Huo Huo thought it was a trivial matter and smiled: "What are you afraid of? Even the most powerful enemy has weaknesses."

"You mean you want to attack Su Junxi?!" Shui Xin was a little excited.

"Don't forget, she has saved you and me more than once." Shui Xin is not a hard-hearted person, and those who have saved her will remember it in their hearts.

Hearing Shui Xin's words, Huo Yan found it ridiculous and mocked: "When did I save you? When was there a time when you didn't let her rescue you on purpose? She is not a martial artist. If there is really trouble, she will not be able to protect herself. , how can I care about your comfort?"

Huo Yan hated Shui Xin's appearance and told her directly: "I will handle this matter myself. I will take back the Tiger Talisman and give it to the master! By then, I will be the master's most capable subordinate and will be the most influential person in the organization." exist!"

Thinking of this, Huo Huo's eyes were shining, as if she had really done it at this moment.

Seeing that Yan Yan was blinded by power, Shui Xin didn't know how to save her, but she also thought that she was trapped in hatred and couldn't extricate herself, and felt guilty that she was powerless to deal with Yan Yan.

Seeing that Shui Xin was in a low mood and kept her head down, Huo Yan had no choice but to promise her: "Don't worry, as long as Li Junyi obediently hands over the tiger charm, I will not hurt Su Junxi."

Shui Xin frowned, she was afraid that Su Junxi was not more important than Hu Fu in Li Junyi's heart.

"Don't worry, with Li Junyi's love for Su Junxi, he will definitely hand it over if he learns that the Tiger Talisman is to be exchanged for Su Junxi's life." From observing these two people in the past few days, Yan Yan is certain that Li Junyi will definitely do it. Exchange the tiger charm for Su Junxi's.

Half a month later, the massacre came to an end, the murderer was not caught and brought to justice, and Kyoto quickly returned to its former glory.

"Princess, today the prince is finally willing to let you go out of the house to relax!" Yingshi followed behind and said happily.

Yan'er straightened Su Junxi's collar and said, "Isn't the prince worried about the princess's safety? Today, the princess has to take a good stroll! But remember, you can't leave someone's sight for even half a step."

After saying that, Yan'er's eyes fell on Li Yi behind her, as if equipped with an automatic positioning system.

"The duty of my subordinates is to protect the safety of the princess!" (End of this chapter)
