The cold night is miserable.
royal palace.
Outside the Shou'an Palace, a figure covered in blood stumbled towards him. Under the shocked eyes of the chamberlain, he rushed into the palace.
Because of the visitor's clothes, no one in front of Shou'an Palace dared to stop him.
"His Majesty!"
In the hall, the Shadow Guard knelt down and reported in panic, "Ten teams of Shadow Guards were suddenly attacked. Except for the first team, all the captains of the other seven teams were killed, and most of the Shadow Guards under them were also killed or injured."
"What!"
In front of the chess table, Shang Huang, wearing only a single piece of clothing, suddenly stood up, looked at the blood-covered Shadow Guard in front of him, and asked in disbelief, "Who did this?"
"Nine masked masters in black robes."
The shadow guard who reported the news responded urgently, "And all of them are masters with strange movements and are good at assassination."
"Nine masters who are good at assassination?"
When Emperor Shang heard this, he was shocked. Soon, his face darkened, he looked out the window and clenched his hands.
Yanyu Tower!
No, although there are conflicts between the royal family and Yanyulou, they are not too many. There is no reason for Yanyulou to take revenge in such a violent way.
The only explanation is the Li family!
Buy money to kill!
"Sixth Prince!"
Just when Emperor Shang was speculating on the murderer, a figure in a python robe stepped outside Shou'an Palace. The servants in front of the palace saw the person coming and bowed respectfully.
"I have something to see your Majesty."
Mu Wu'an said coldly, and then walked straight to the Shou'an Hall in front.
"His Majesty."
Soon, Mu Wu'an entered the palace, looked at Emperor Shang inside, and said in a deep voice, "The Li family can't stay any longer!"
"Wu An, sit down."
Emperor Shang looked at the incoming man and said in a solemn voice, "We don't know the details of our opponent, so we can't act rashly. Moreover, if you come from an unknown position, you will be criticized by everyone in the world."
"Isn't it hard to find a reason?"
Mu Wu'an stepped forward, sat down at the table, and said with a cold expression, "Charge him with colluding with foreign enemies, confiscate his home, and exterminate his clan!"
"Sixth Brother, you think too simply."
Emperor Shang replied solemnly, "You have also seen what happened tonight. The whereabouts of the Shadow Guards are so secretive. How did the killers of Yanyu Tower find them? There is no doubt that the Li family's intelligence network is operating in it, and it can bring them to justice." Reaching inside the Shadow Guard, the energy of the Li family is greater than you and I thought."
"Does Your Majesty have to bear this tone?"
Mu Wu'an said solemnly, "Even if your Majesty can bear it, my brother cannot bear it."
"A small leak will sink a great ship."
Emperor Shang persuaded calmly, "The Li family's attack on the Shadow Guard must be revenge for Li Youwei's incident. Now the top priority is to rebuild the Shadow Guard's establishment as soon as possible. The value of the Shadow Guard to us is not just to deal with a Li family .”
"Your Majesty, there is no conflict between rebuilding the Shadow Guard and dealing with the Li family and Yanyu Tower."
Mu Wuan frowned and said, "They've stabbed our hearts with their knives. How can we do nothing?"
"of course not."
Emperor Shang responded, "When something happened to Lei Gongfeng before, I had sent someone to contact the top management of Yanyu Tower. This killer organization is very troublesome. You have seen the situation tonight. We must find a way to stabilize it first. It will be solved later." Li family, let’s settle the old and new accounts together.”
"Those killers are indeed troublesome."
Mu Wu'an said coldly, "Even if my brother almost fell into their trap, Your Majesty is right. To solve this killer organization, there is no rush. Moreover, other people's swords can also become our swords. What the Li family can give them , I can give it like a royal family."
"you mean?"
Emperor Shang narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Repay him in his own way?"
"good."
Mu Wu'an sneered and said, "Isn't it the business of collecting money to buy lives in Yanyulou? As long as you give them money, those desperadoes are willing to do anything."
"Sixth Brother's words make sense."
Emperor Shang nodded thoughtfully and said, "Counting the days, the people I sent to contact Yanyu Tower should be back soon. We need to plan this matter carefully. Before, we underestimated this killer too much." Organized."
Having said this, Emperor Shang paused and said seriously, "Wu An, you don't have to worry about the affairs of Yanyu Tower and the Li family. Your task is to rebuild the Shadow Guard as soon as possible. To deal with the Li family, the power of the Shadow Guard is indispensable. .”
"My dear brother, I understand." Mu Wu'an nodded and responded.
At the same time, Li Garden, the inner courtyard.
After Li Ziye drank a few cups of tea, he stood up and walked to Taotao's room and said, "Hibiscus, come together."
"Um."
Hibiscus stood up and followed, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
Isn’t everything over? Are there any arrangements?
"Taotao."
In the room, Li Ziye came over, sat down in front of the brazier, warmed his hands, and asked, "How's the accounting going?"
"Don't worry, young master."
Taotao smiled sweetly and responded, "It's all done, I promise, it will be perfect."
"It's not good to have a perfect dress."
Li Ziye picked up an account book, looked at it, and said, "You have to let others find out something."
"They want to find out, but they can barely find it."
Taotao smiled and said, "But it's just a little more laborious."
"It's good to put a little effort into it and make it look real."
Li Ziye put down the account book and praised, "Taotao is really getting smarter and smarter."
"You taught me well, young master." Taotao complimented cooperatively.
"Can't understand."
On the side, Hibiscus spoke softly.
"Taotao, please explain."
Li Ziye sat in front of the brazier to warm his hands and said.
"good."
Taotao responded, looking at the woman in front of her, and asked gently, "Miss Hibiscus, do you know where the masters tonight come from?"
"Not sure."
Mujin shook her head and replied, "It should be a master secretly trained or won over by the Li family."
"Yes and no."
Taotao smiled and said, "They are indeed masters trained by the Li family, but they now belong to Yanyu Tower."
"Yanyu Tower?"
Hearing this, Mu Jin was shocked and asked in disbelief, "The number one killer organization in the world, Yanyulou?"
"Um."
Taotao nodded and responded, "Yanyu Tower is in the business of collecting money and buying lives. For such a large-scale operation today, the price offered by Yanyu Tower must be an astronomical figure. Even the richest Li family in the world would find it difficult to When you take out so much money at once, you have to do it without anyone noticing, otherwise, others will wonder what the Li family did when they suddenly misappropriated so much money."
After hearing the former explanation, Mu Jin felt her heart turbulent. It was difficult to digest so much information for a while.
Yanyulou and the Li family turned out to be the same organization.
In the midst of her thoughts, Mu Jin moved her eyes to the people around her, suppressed the turmoil in her heart, and asked, "Young Master, the Li family used the killers from Yanyu Tower, wouldn't the royal family be suspicious?"
"of course."
Li Ziye smiled slightly and responded, "That's why I asked Taotao to do the accounts. In order to prove the relationship between Yanyu Tower and the Li family, the royal family must secretly send someone to check the Li family's accounts. The more serious this kind of thing is, The results that are easily obtained will make people more suspicious, but the illusions that have been discovered after painstaking efforts and twists and turns are easier for people to believe."
People are suspicious, and people are often more willing to trust their own judgment than the truth. Many times, the illusion hidden behind blind confidence is more fascinating than the truth.
