From Joy of Life, the Tian Gang is reversed

Chapter 154 His death was very sloppy, but very reasonable

When a person is killed, he dies.
Chen Pingping, the president of the Nanqing Supervisory Council, has been the only dark king in the world since Sean's fall.

He holds the secrets of the lives and deaths of countless people and countless princes and nobles. Countless people will tremble and even have nightmares when they hear his name.

But if you are killed, you will die, just like now.

He was half paralyzed in a wheelchair, his face pale, and he passed away very unsteadily.

The dry hand stretched out and grabbed his neck, as if trying to grab something, but when it was halfway raised, it dropped it weakly.

The blood first splattered, then gurgled out, and now it has begun to solidify.

There was a hairpin stuck in his throat, which was a little thicker than an ordinary hairpin and was made very roughly.

The large amount of blood that gushed out had already soaked the hairpin into a deep red color, and faintly emitted a faint foul smell.

Of course, in addition to this hairpin, there is also the hole on his neck.

Not just one, but several holes were poked in a short period of time!

Therefore, even if the Golden Immortal were alive, he would not be able to save him.

Well, not necessarily. If he is really a Daluo Jinxian, he can pull you out of the long river of time. It mainly depends on your relationship with him.

Chen Pingping obviously had no friendship with the Daluo Jinxian, so he left very uneasy.

The huge square in front of the palace was crowded with people, all of them were officials, high-ranking officials of Nanqing.

Although the incident happened suddenly, it happened just after the court was dismissed, and the location was less than a hundred steps outside the Chengtian Palace, so no one walked far.

Emperor Qing's expression was terrifyingly gloomy, and the gloomy atmosphere seemed like it would explode at any moment.

This air pressure has gradually become real. Within three meters around him, there is no one except Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows slightly, knowing that his grandmaster was already furious and was about to lose control of his aura. With a slight movement of his mind, a warm and yang aura emanated from his body like a breeze, blowing around and making the surrounding air smoother.

Emperor Qing glanced at him, then turned his gaze to the front, where two black-armored knights were pinning down a young eunuch in his twenties, not daring to move. The eunuch, on the other hand, had a pleased smile on his face and was giggling strangely.

"What is going on?" Emperor Qing calmed down a little and asked through gritted teeth.

The sound was not loud, but it made people tremble in their hearts.

Gong Dian knelt in front of the palace with sweat all over his forehead, his body trembling slightly with fear.

The sky is falling!

This is Chen Pingping, His Majesty's most trusted confidant and loyal dog, holding His Majesty's most secret and unknown power. And just like that...

He suddenly missed Yan Xiaoyi, who had volunteered to be transferred out after being defeated by Qin Yuan, and envied Qin Yuan, who had followed Fan Xian to the capital...

Now that these two are gone, he, an eighth-rank expert, can barely hold on, but he has encountered such a fatal thing. How can you expect him to stay calm?

But he also knew that now was not the time to panic, so he suppressed the fear in his heart and pointed at the eunuch who was being held on the ground and said,

"Your Majesty, the murderer is Duan Si. He is a palace eunuch. He has always served Dean Chen in and out of the palace, and there has never been any accidents. I don't know what happened today. He just pushed Dean Chen here, and while the Dean was talking, he suddenly attacked the Dean. No one could have imagined this!"

Chen Pingping is a paraplegic and has to use a wheelchair to enter and exit the palace. Normally, the wheelchair is pushed by Shadow, but Shadow cannot enter the palace, at least not in a swaggering manner.

Therefore, after entering the palace gate, there would be special eunuchs to take charge of this task. Duan Si took over from his predecessor a year ago and was responsible for picking up and dropping off Chen Pingping at the palace gate.

One year ago!!
"Duan Si!" Emperor Qing's gaze suddenly fell on the eunuch named Duan Si. Under Emperor Qing's gaze, Duan Si's strange smile suddenly stopped and he lowered his head. "Tell me, who ordered you to do this?!"

Emperor Qing's tone was stern, revealing a power that could frighten people's minds.

This matter cannot be delayed and must be resolved quickly.

Chen Pingping's identity was too special, and the place where he died was too special. If he couldn't take advantage of this opportunity to resolve the issue in front of the ministers, then rumors would be flying everywhere before the next day, and the biggest suspicion would point to himself, the emperor.

What confidant, what loyal dog...

All the talk about wise rulers and good ministers, and beautiful stories about rulers and ministers, are empty talk.

When the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked; when the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden.

This is the reality of the world.

People are also more willing to believe this.

"Why kill him? Tell me why I killed him. He killed my whole family. Isn't it right for me to kill him?!"

Duan Si raised his head. Although his smile was gone, his happy expression could not be concealed from others.

"My name isn't Duan Si, it's Duan Ziping. My father is Duan Zhengnan, the military commander of Yuezhou. Ten years ago, Chen Pingping murdered my entire family on the charge of harboring enemies and attempting to establish his own power. Shouldn't I seek revenge?"

"Duan Zhengnan?!" Emperor Qing narrowed his eyes. He had an impression of this name. He belonged to a branch of the old royal nobles. They had lived in Yuezhou for generations and had great influence in Yuezhou. In name, he was an inconspicuous military commander, but even the governor of Yuezhou had to act according to his wishes. He was the local emperor of Yuezhou. Later, Chen Pingping used tricks to divide and disintegrate him. It took him five years to wait for the right opportunity to wipe him out in one fell swoop.

But wasn't the whole family wiped out then? How could another one pop up?
"You thought all forty-eight of my Duan family's direct relatives were slaughtered, but you didn't expect that it wasn't me who died in the massacre. It was the cook's son, who was about my age. He exchanged clothes with me. I hid in the well for ten whole days before I crawled out."

This is a very clichéd revenge story.

No twists and turns at all.

Duan Ziping escaped and naturally wanted to take revenge, but he knew that with his status, position and situation, it would be extremely difficult to seek revenge on Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping.

Just like Chen Pingping’s other enemies, he never found a chance to take revenge.

But he did it. He came to Kyoto with the money left by the Duan family, cut himself in half, bribed An Zhaonan, the chief steward of the Jingshifang, and successfully entered the palace and became a small eunuch.

He worked peacefully as a servant in the palace for several years. Because he was diligent, smart and had a good image, he climbed up the palace quickly.

A year ago, the eunuch in the palace who was responsible for picking up and dropping off Chen Pingping caught a cold. Although he recovered later, his heart and lungs were damaged and he often had heavy breathing. He was no longer suitable for this job, so another eunuch was chosen to take charge of this matter. This person was Duan Si.

"The hairpin is an ordinary ebony hairpin, but I usually soak it in sewage for five years, just waiting for this opportunity today."

"What kind of opportunity is today?!"

"Ten years ago today, my Duan family was wiped out."

Duan Ziping grinned and said, "I spent a year making him relax his guard against me. I took advantage of him talking to someone and attacked him. My martial arts skills are not high, but I have practiced this move for a full ten years. His death was not unjust. It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to kill you!"

Yes, Chen Pingping's death was not unjust; he had a motive, an opportunity, and a reason...

But his death was so sloppy, so sloppy, and yet so reasonable.

It's so reasonable that everyone feels incredible.
