Red makeup against the world

Chapter 171 Tong Hua Pond

Yingfeng and Yinglei rode their horses into Luoyang City, passed the Shadow Guard Talisman Festival at the entrance of the imperial city, and went straight to the side hall of the inner court. The guards of the side hall will pass it on to Emperor Qinglong. rule.

When Emperor Qinglong came down from court, he only took Wu Guangqi to the side hall when he heard the news.

Yinglei had already reported the history of Jiangnan and his party. At this time, Yingfeng reported in detail about the investigation of Dongying Assassins. The matter involved the King of Qianyang. It was hard to accept, his face sank like water, and he didn't say a word.

At the end, Emperor Qinglong said: "Tell me about the attack on you when you came back."

Yingyu's disappearance is equivalent to openly provoking Emperor Qinglong, Yingfeng has already thought about how to reply.Now state the matter one word at a time, without adding any emotions or judgments.

After hearing this, Emperor Qinglong's expression moved slightly, and he said sarcastically, "Besides Tong Hua Chi, who else is the one who knows the Shadow Guard so well and is so bold to catch people under my nose?"

"Tong Hua Pond?" Hearing this name, the two of them fell silent, for it was actually related to him.

Emperor Qinglong flicked his sleeves, and said in a serious tone: "He has been at large for a long time. I was waiting for you to return to Beijing and gather people to kill him. But I lost the opportunity and let him capture Yingyu."

The two bowed and listened. Tong Huachi was the leader of the shadow guards of the former emperor, but disappeared mysteriously after Emperor Qinglong ascended the throne, and took part of the shadow guards with him.This matter is quite confidential, and only the core backbone of the shadow guards knows.But why he disappeared, only Emperor Qinglong knew.

Therefore, Emperor Qinglong re-promoted four groups of commanders, disrupted the shadow guards and rebuilt them.Otherwise, even if Yingfeng is young, even if he has outstanding ability, how can he be the leader of the wind group?
As for Tong Huachi, whenever he was mentioned, he would bear the thunderous anger from Emperor Qinglong.Over time, this name became a taboo for Shadow Guards, and no one dared to mention it.

At this time, the two of them heard the name again from Emperor Qinglong's mouth. They didn't know what the emperor was thinking, why didn't they feel their hairs standing on end?

However, Emperor Qinglong turned around and ordered Wu Guangqi who was waiting outside the palace gate, "Go pass on Qiu Ye."

Qiu Ye, upon hearing this name, the hearts of the two of them were shaken again.

He was also a shadow guard in the late emperor's time. He was the leader of the thunder group at that time. His martial arts skills are unpredictable and unmatched by anyone. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the best in the world.But after Tong Huachi disappeared, he also disappeared without a trace.Only now did the two know that Qiu Ye had been by Emperor Qinglong's side all along.

After a while, Qiu Ye appeared in the hall.At this time, the sky was blue and the sun was shining, but he was like a ghost, with a deep chill emanating from his body.It was also the first time for Yingfeng to see this legendary figure, and with his calmness, he couldn't help but gasp deeply in his heart.

Qiu Ye's face seemed to have been burned by a fire and trampled on by someone. There were many scars running across his face. The bridge of his nose had disappeared, leaving only two protruding nostrils.The left eye was covered by scars, and only the right eye was shining with a cold light. The eyebrows and eyelashes were all gone, and it looked extremely distorted and hideous.He stood there, his limbs were bent abnormally, as if his limbs had been broken and then reattached.The whole person is like a ghost who climbed up from hell to take revenge.

Slightly stunned, Yingfeng and Yinglei stepped forward to salute: "I have seen Senior Qiu Ye."

Qiu Ye hissed, his voice seemed to have been honed by coarse sand, and his heart was chilled: "Tong Hua Pond appeared again? I have been waiting for him for seven full years."

Emperor Qinglong said: "Tonghuachi must be killed. Yingfeng temporarily assumes the position of 'ying', Yinglei obeys orders, and Qiu Ye will assist you."

The leader of the four shadow guards, Ying Yu is missing, Ying Movie is obsessed with research, and Ying Lei is good at assassination. In terms of planning and layout, Ying Feng is second to none.Not only that, he also did a good job in overall planning, scheduling, and control. The members of the wind group closely gathered by his side, displaying extraordinary combat effectiveness.

Of course, Emperor Qinglong knew this well. Among the three people in front of him, Yingfeng was the most suitable candidate for the presidency.This is also the reason why he didn't announce the leadership immediately when the four of them handed in the task.Although the four of them have made equal contributions, except for Yingfeng, the other three have obvious shortcomings. They are suitable to be pioneers but have no leadership ability.

Right now, it is just a matter of taking advantage of this to let him take the temporary leadership position. If he can successfully complete the task, he can be made a "shadow" logically.

If it were on a normal day, Yinglei would have to fight for it.But now he is concerned about Ying Yu's safety and has no time to care about him.In Qiu Ye's heart, there was only Tong Hua Chi.

After Emperor Qinglong announced the appointment, all three had no objection and agreed in unison.

Emperor Qinglong put his hands behind his back and walked out of the hall, and the three of them saw him off respectfully.Walking to the gate of the hall, he turned half his body, the sun shone into the hall from behind him, his face could not see his emotions clearly in the shadows, he only heard him coldly said: "The old year's 'shadow' was poisoned and injured, and it was also Tonghua Pond. for."

"What?" Yingfeng and Yinglei turned pale.

Mr. Ying has a big heart. He has led the Shadow Guard for six years and has been loved and cared by everyone.Although his skills are not the best, he is resourceful and can easily solve any problems that come his way.His passing made the shadow guards feel very sad, especially for these commanders.

Regarding the cause of his death, Emperor Qinglong has never announced it.All he knew was that he had received a secret order from Emperor Qinglong to go to Lingnan Road to perform a mission, but he returned poisoned.

Today, I found out that Master Ying's death was caused by Tong Huachi.Thinking that the mission was related to Tong Hua Chi, it turned out that Master Ying had been looking for him.Now that I think about it, I am right, except for the leader of the shadow guards of the late emperor, who else could make Mr. Ying fall into the trap?Shadowwind's eyes showed hatred.

Seeing the two trembling slightly, Emperor Qinglong left in satisfaction.

Qiu Ye hissed: "I failed to catch Tonghuachi last year. This time, I must not let him slip away again." He has a blood feud with Tonghuachi, and has been looking for him for seven years.

Regarding Tonghuachi, Emperor Qinglong didn't want to make a big show of it, but just killed him quietly, so he only sent Ying and Qiu Ye to do it in secret.

Tong Huachi is as cunning as a fox, and there was a clue about him when the shadow was poisoned. At that time, Qiu Ye was looking for him on Hedong Road.Afraid that he would go too late and lose track of him, Ying left a message for Qiu Ye and hurried away.Unexpectedly, he fell into his trap, and when Qiu Ye arrived, it was already too late, taking Ying's life in vain, and leaving the shadow guards leaderless.

On the other hand, Tonghua Pond has become more and more powerful, and now has a group of mysterious knights working for it, and has captured Ying Yu.Emperor Qinglong knew that this malignant tumor must be solved as soon as possible, so he no longer hesitated, and resolutely decided to let the shadow guards join forces and Qiu Ye to assist, and he was bound to take him down in one fell swoop.

Yingfeng took Yinglei and Qiu Ye out of the imperial city with a heavy heart, knowing the truth about Master Ying's death, and Tong Huachi's secret plan, he felt a heavy burden on his shoulders.

He imagined countless times in his mind that he would take the position of "shadow", but he never thought of this situation.There is no excitement, excitement, or joy, only sorrow and heaviness.
