Lin Ruhai pondered over the words of the old man in black.
After a while, a smile appeared on his face and he said, "People are talented, and so is the country. So, do you think Song Xuan, the brother and sister, are the kind of people who are blessed with good fortune and are loved by heaven and earth?"
The old man nodded, "Such people are rare in the world, but they don't exist. Master, you are not from the world, so you don't know what it feels like."
It’s really uncomfortable to feel that one’s hard work for decades is not as good as someone else’s sudden enlightenment. "
Lin Ruhai laughed, "So, the Song family has a Qilin'er... That's right, the Xuanyiwei family's hundreds of years of heritage is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people."
The old man in black acknowledged: "The Xuanyiwei family in the imperial capital has never been ostentatious, but it is the cornerstone of the Zhou Empire's military force. The hundred families who died this time are said to be members of the Xuanyiwei family. Wei sent Song Xuan here this time, and he is probably going to start a war."
"Oh? What do you mean, Song Xuan is not only great in martial arts, but he is also very capable in other aspects?"
"That's true." The old man in black pondered for a moment, "The master has been very ill during this time, and some things are unclear.
Song Xuan is very famous in Xuanyiwei in the imperial capital recently. He was responsible for the first flower-picking case in Zhou Dynasty that caused a lot of commotion some time ago.
No fewer than three large families were implicated in this case and had their homes confiscated and exterminated. Several important officials above the third rank of the court were deposed and imprisoned.
This man is careful and decisive in his actions, and the most important thing is that his background is strong enough. Those killers from the Xuanyi Guard Law Enforcement Department can be mobilized if they are asked to be mobilized... The master and him are relatives, and they have the relationship of the young lady, no matter what in the future Whether he continues to stay in Jiangsu and Zhejiang or returns to the imperial capital, it can be a big help. "
Lin Ruhai shook his head, "The water over Xuanyiwei's side is much deeper than the salt affairs, let's see how he can stand firm first.
The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. The Jiangzhe Prefecture is far away from the imperial capital. There are thousands of households on top of his hundred households. It remains to be seen whether he can succeed. "
After pondering for a moment, he looked at the old man in black and said, "Mr. Feng, if necessary, you may need to help him."
The old man nodded, with no shirk in his expression, "Just because he saved the master, that's what he should do!"
...
Outside Yangzhou City, in a group of tombs somewhere, Song Xuan and Song Qian were digging graves hummingly.
It was already dark at this time, there were many trees around, there was not even a sound of insects or birds, and the gloomy environment seemed a bit intrusive.
In order not to cause too much noise, Song and Xuan chose to dig the grave in the dead of night.
Half an hour later,
The two men re-covered the dug coffin and filled it with soil before leaving the place quickly without wanting to stay for a moment.
After walking far away, Song Qian continued to swing her sleeves and frowned: "The smell of corpses is like it's stuck to your body, and it won't dissipate no matter what."
Song Xuan said nonchalantly: "I'll see you more often in the future, and I'll gradually get used to it."
Song Qian sighed, "Brother, now we can basically conclude that the old Xu family was murdered, right?"
Song Xuandao: "Under normal circumstances, if a person accidentally falls into the water and drowns, he will inhale some sediment in his mouth and nose, but as you just saw, there is no trace of sediment in his mouth and nose at all.
Apparently, he died before drowning.
And as you can see after the autopsy, his whole body was stiff and cold, with no scars on his appearance, but his heart was completely broken.
It was obvious that he was killed by someone using some special skill. "
Song Qian said: "The Xuan Bing Jin passed down in our family can also freeze people's blood and shatter their internal organs without damaging their appearance. It seems that this kind of unique skill that specializes in damaging internal organs is not uncommon in the martial arts."
Song Xuan hummed, "There is obviously something wrong with Xu Changan's death, but the Xuanyi Guard Qianhu Station here in Jiangzhe Prefecture closed the case by drowning under the influence of alcohol. Obviously, there is something wrong with the Qianhu Station here. "
Song Qian lamented: "The old Xu family is also unlucky. Although their family is a hereditary Xuanyi Guard, their population is thinner than our Song family. It seems that Xu Changan is the only male in this generation.
Both of Xu Changan's parents died when he was ten years old. Now that he is also dead, the Xuanyi Wei family in the imperial capital may be expelled from the Xu family in the future. "
Song Xuan sneered, "It is estimated that those people in the dark know the situation of the Xu family, so they dare to take action unscrupulously. They feel that Xu Changan is dead if he dies. He doesn't even have a family, and no one will stand up for him." .”
Song Qian touched the long sword at her waist and sneered: "I'm afraid those people don't understand that the hereditary Xuanyiwei family in the imperial capital is connected with each other. They are not just attacking Xu Chang'an, but are provoking us hereditary Xuanyi." Yiwei family!”
Song Xuan was silent, looking up at the dark night, and sighed.
It seems that this trip to Mingzhou will be another killing trip.
...
The next morning, Song Xuan changed into a dark black Xuan Yi Wei Baihu robe from the inn where he stayed.
This robe is not only gorgeous, but when worn on Song Xuan's tall and slender body, it adds a bit of power and oppression.
After walking out of the inn, Song Qian was already wearing official uniform and was waiting outside with two horses. When pedestrians on the roadside saw the clothes on her body and the long sword at her waist, they all showed fear on their faces and hid away. .
"Let's go!"
Song Xuan got on his horse, waved his sleeves and robe, and rushed towards the Xuanyi Guard Qianhu Station located in Yangzhou City.
Today is the day that the two brothers and sisters officially take office.
Even if this thousand-household house was a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, he had to go and see clearly.
If the Xuanyi Guard here can still be used, then just make do with it and continue to use it. If it cannot be used...
A hint of cruelty flashed in Song Xuan's eyes. The worst he could do was clean it and replace it with a new batch.
The Xuanyi Guard system is too huge, and there are many overt and covert struggles in the mountains. There are multiple factions in the Inspection Department alone.
Before leaving Beijing, Lao Zhao specifically told him that no matter what the trouble, the law enforcement personnel outside Yangzhou City could be mobilized at any time when necessary.
In recent years, the hereditary families of Xuanyiwei in their imperial capital have declined greatly. Many families have only a few members and have even lost their heirs. Although many families still have names, they have actually lost much strength.
This has also made many people forget their terror. The recent death of Xu Changan may be a test by some forces.
He was testing the reaction of these hereditary Xuanyiwei families and exploring their true strength.
In a sense, the Song Xuan brother and sister are the leaders of the new generation in the hereditary Xuanyiwei family.
This time Zhao Dezhu sent him here to take up the post, nominally to take over Xu Changan's position in Baihu. In fact, the real purpose was to let him kill people and establish his authority!
