In Yingtianfu City, artillery fire rumbled.
Amidst the rumbling artillery fire and the shouts of killing all over the street, a black figure walked quietly in the shadows, finally stopping at the top of a tall restaurant.
She glanced back at the long attacking team carrying torches, then jumped lightly into the shadow of the restaurant.
Pushing open the door, he looked at the man who was watching quietly from the window of the restaurant.
"I report to Mr. Qin that Wang Zhi acted according to the plan and there were no mistakes."
The person coming was none other than Yin Ye.
Qin nodded: "As expected of Wang Zhi. Although we know that he has such great ambitions, the power to put his ambitions into practice is the most worthy of awe."
"Tell me the specific situation."
Yin Ye hummed: "Yingtian Mansion was not prepared to deal with a sudden siege, not to mention that the originally impregnable city wall was blown open a gap immediately, whether it was the number of artillery or the sophistication of the personnel, Wang Although Hu Beizong has the greater number of troops defending the city, Yingtian Mansion is so big that even Hu Beizong has no good way to deal with a small breakthrough force."
"If Hu Beizong had not escaped in time, he himself would have become Wang Zhi's prisoner."
Qin nodded: "I am the only one in Bahuang Liuhe, and Wang Zhi really did not disappoint me."
"So, Yingtianfu City is already in Wang Zhi's possession?"
"Yes." Yin Ye nodded and said, "A Yingtian Mansion is no big deal, but for Wang Zhi, this challenge is just the beginning for him."
"After all, Wang Zhi has no foundation for rule. Although his soldiers are excellent, they are not large enough. What's more, he has no way to win the sincere loyalty of the scholar-bureaucrats, so his rule will definitely not last long."
"This is not a problem." Qin shook his head and said, "The key depends on whether Wang Zhi will plunder the city when he enters Yingtianfu City tonight."
"Most of his soldiers are pirates and are naughty in nature. Moreover, Yingtian Mansion is a sacred place. How can there be a cat that doesn't steal fish? But if Wang Zhi can control his subordinates and appease people's hearts, then his ambition will be It’s more ambitious than we thought, and I’m afraid we really want to compete with the emperor for position.”
"If he just lets people rob him, then Wang Zhi of Yingtian Mansion is destined to be unable to stand. It may not be long before he sets sail again to cause trouble. Anyway, no one in the world can do anything to him at sea."
"After all, there are people with three cunning rabbit holes. It is really difficult to kill him."
"I heard that there is a large island called Yizhou in the southeastern sea. Recently, Wang Zhi has been letting people go ashore to operate it. I am afraid that he has the idea of using Yizhou as his third place to stay."
Yin Ye listened to Qin's words quietly without saying a word.
After all, all she needed to do at this point was listen.
"That's right." Qin suddenly said.
"What's going on?" Yin Ye asked.
"I remember that boy Fang Bie also entered Wang Zhi's exclusive club. What was the result?" Qin asked.
"He didn't do anything." Yin Ye shook his head and said.
"During the Duzunhui, he designed to deceive Wang Zhi into using an iron cannon. In addition, when Wang Zhi began to launch an attack against Tianfu, he chose to wait and see what happened instead of doing anything. put one's oar in."
"In addition, Master Zhenru tried to stop Wang Zhi, but was defeated and captured."
Qin was not very surprised by the news: "Zhenru has a very straightforward temper and likes to take immediate losses. However, she has a very high status in the world. Wang Zhi wants to use the power of the world for his own benefit, so he doesn't really want to do anything to her." So, but I’m afraid a jail sentence is inevitable.”
"By the way, does Wang Zhi have any good anesthetics?"
"It seems that Luan Yunfei has mastered a bone-eroding soft tendon powder that can effectively control first-level masters." Yin Ye said.
"Then don't worry about it." Qin said lightly.
When the two people talked about this, there was a sense of silence in the air.
Because it seems that all that needs to be said has been said.
And Yin Ye has never been a talkative person.
Until Qin broke the silence again: "When will Her Majesty the Queen Bee get the news?"
"I'm afraid she's in for a really big surprise."
"After all, Wang Zhi had never told her before that he planned to take action against Tianfu."
"It turns out that this matter actually took advantage of the power of the hive. Her Royal Highness the Queen Bee will probably be so angry that she won't be able to sleep all night."
"According to the normal speed, if we don't intercept the carrier pigeon, Her Highness the Queen Bee will get the news tomorrow morning, and we can arrive in the Jiangnan area within three days at the earliest."
Yin Ye raised his head and glanced at Qin.
No unnecessary words were said.
She didn't say any unnecessary words, and she didn't ask any unnecessary questions.
It was precisely because of Yin Ye's good habits that she was able to stay by Qin's side for such a long time.
"Interesting." Qin smiled: "Your Highness the Queen Bee may be very suspicious of when the beehives in Jiangnan became so powerful."
"That's right." Qin looked at Yin Ye: "There is no turning back arrow when you open your bow."
"For many things, once they start, there is no room for reversal."
"Have you thought it through?"
"Don't regret it until the end."
"Yin Ye doesn't know what Mr. Qin means." Yin Ye looked at Qin Jingjing and said.
Her voice was as calm as water.
"The problem with you is that you are too smart. Because you are too smart, you don't get involved in anything." Qin looked at Yin Ye and shook his head and said, "But sometimes, subordinates who are too smart make the boss not so reassured."
Yin Ye looked at Qin without saying a word.
There is no explanation, and many times, if you don’t speak, you won’t make a mistake.
"This game of chess, at least so far, the imperial court has lost." Qin continued: "With the fall of Yingtian Mansion, a large area of Jiangnan will collapse. Wang Zhi can take Jiangnan from top to bottom, just like picking out objects from a bag. The imperial court's encirclement and suppression troops, at least It will take three months to set off. As for victory or defeat after the departure, it is unpredictable, but Wang Zhi's chance of winning is at least 70%. Even if there is no way to overturn the Zhou Dynasty, he can at least make the big Zhou Dynasty overthrown. Zhou's foundation is shaken. After all, one man is in trouble and seven temples are destroyed. If Wang Zhi rises up, others will rush to imitate him."
"But do you know whether Wang Zhi will have the last laugh?"
Yin Ye looked at Qin and finally said, "It depends on whether Lord Qin wants Wang Zhi to survive."
"Do you believe it or not?" Qin continued: "Tomorrow, the Tianzihao mission to kill Wang Zhi will be sent out from Her Highness the Queen Bee."
"I believe that since there are so many people in the world who want Wang Zhi dead, there will always be someone who can afford the price." Yin Ye said.
Qin looked at Yin Ye helplessly: "Can't you say that it is Her Royal Highness the Queen Bee who wants Wang Zhi to die?"
"Why would Her Majesty the Queen Bee want Wang Zhi to die?" Yin Ye looked at Qin and said, his expression did not change at all, it was still a light and emotionless look: "Now the Beehive is being suppressed by the court, who can help the Beehive share the pressure? It’s not too late for Her Majesty the Queen Bee to be happy.”
"Do you know why Her Highness the Queen Bee is Her Highness the Queen Bee?" Qin looked at the gunfire outside the window and said quietly: "Her Highness the Queen Bee is so young. When the hive was established, our current Highness the Queen Bee had not yet born."
"And she was able to take charge of an organization like the Hive as soon as she was born. Almost all assassins in the world are under her command. Don't you know why?"
"I don't know," Yin Ye said.
"It's not that you don't know, you don't want to know." Qin turned back to look at Yin Ye: "Fang Bie can be said to be the person who fears death the most in the world, but you are the person who least wants to die in the world. Since you If you don’t want to die so much, why are you still with me?”
"Because you are the most powerful person I have ever seen." Yin Ye said quietly.
Her eyes are clear.
"At least He Ping is better than me, why don't you follow her?" Qin asked.
"Three years ago, He Ping was stronger than the adults, but today, three years later, He Ping has never made any further progress. Fang Bu's inner strength and mental skills can only guarantee that she will not regress, no, even say no. It’s not even a step back, it just gives He Ping a chance to take action without hurting her roots.”
"Master Qin, you tried so hard to get He Ping to take action. Didn't you just want to see how much worse He Ping is today than before?"
Yin Ye chose to say a lot when he opened his mouth: "Of course He Ping is very strong today. She has made up for her shortcomings in internal strength. Many people thought she was stronger than before, but Master Qin was defeated by her back then. Is it because of her internal strength?"
"It's because of her sword and killing intent."
"Three years have passed. Her sword has become dull and her murderous intent has dissipated. However, my lord has become much stronger than in three years."
"One thing is going down, the other is going up. If your Excellency had another life-and-death fight with He Ping today, who could predict the outcome?"
"After being defeated by He Ping's sword, your Excellency lay dormant for three years. Now it's time to become a blockbuster. Even I don't know how powerful you are on the day when you really show your talents."
Qin looked at Yin Ye and smiled: "You know too much."
"It's not too much to know too much about your strength." Yin Ye looked at Qin: "Didn't you say that my loyalty is questionable?"
"Then you also know that people like me only choose to follow the strongest."
"You are the most powerful man I have ever seen, so I choose to follow you."
Qin Liang didn't speak for a long time. He looked out the window and said slowly: "I remember many years ago, you wanted to leave with He Ping?"
"Yes." Yin Ye nodded: "Because I believe He Ping can teach me the best martial arts in the world, which is something no one can give me."
Qin did not deny it.
Although Yin Ye also learned sufficiently profound and powerful martial arts from his hands, what he could teach Yin Ye was ultimately different from what He Ping could teach her.
"But Lady He Ping rejected me at that time because she already had Fang Bie by her side. Compared with Fang Bie, I had no advantage." Yin Yeping told this past event calmly, not thinking it was anything noteworthy. The place.
Qin nodded: "What if one day I am no longer the strongest man?"
"Then I will leave you." Yin Ye said without hesitation.
Qin couldn't help laughing: "A woman's loyalty is really a joke."
"What you said is wrong." Yin Ye shook his head and said, "I am a subordinate first."
"The next best thing is a woman."
Qin shook his head and smiled: "Then I really hope that if one day I am no longer strong, you can leave early."
"But right now, I still need you."
"You go and see her to say goodbye."
"Tell him some latest information."
"If nothing else happens."
"He should be the one who killed Wang Zhi."
"He's a good enough sword."
"We should make the best use of this sword before it breaks."
Yin Ye looked back at Qin: "Aren't you afraid of scratching yourself with this sword?"
"Those who dare not use a fast sword cannot be called strong enough." Qin looked at Yin Ye and said quietly.
Yin Ye nodded and retreated into the darkness again.
…
…
Liangjiang Governor's Mansion.
The sound of killing outside the palace wall was already loud.
Those pirates could actually break through Yingtianfu City, and even said that they could approach the Liangjiang Governor's Palace, the core of Yingtianfu, overnight. This was something Hu Beizong could not have imagined.
He once climbed onto the city wall to supervise the battle, but he saw with his own eyes the moment the city wall was blown up.
He also ordered the death squads to charge and kill all the enemies coming from the gap. However, the pirates who came like a tide were not only fearless and well-equipped, but their martial arts and literacy were even better than those of the government troops under his command. a lot of.
After all, Yingtian Mansion's army was not originally prepared for war. Who could have imagined that a real war would usher in so soon.
All wars that are too late to prepare will teach you impressive lessons.
Forced into desperation, Hu Beizong could only retreat to the Governor's Mansion of Liangjiang and stand guard under the protection of his own soldiers, hoping for a miracle to happen.
But now, it seems that even a miracle cannot be expected.
"They are coming soon." Hu Beizong asked the guards around him tremblingly.
The guard's feet were trembling, but he still managed to answer: "Your Majesty the Governor, the other party is just some pirates, which is not enough evidence. When the imperial reinforcements arrive, they will be wiped out and they will not be able to survive!"
"Reinforcements?" Hu Beizong smiled bitterly: "Where are the reinforcements?"
"Yingtian Mansion is the most important garrison in the south. Now that Yingtian Mansion is gone, if it wants reinforcements, the imperial court will have to slowly transport them from the north. People eat what horses chew. In less than three months, there is no way to count on any reinforcements. "
Saying this, Hu Beizong looked at the waist knife in the soldier's hand: "By the way, is your knife fast?"
The soldier didn't react for a moment: "This is a fine steel sword. You can kill the enemy in battle without even drawing blood."
"That's good." Hu Beizong said this, took out the waist knife, and then wiped it on his neck without hesitation.
After all, rather than being captured and humiliated by a thief, it would be better to end it on your own.
The soldiers were stunned by this scene for a moment and couldn't think of stopping it.
At this moment, a sword energy struck out sharply and hit the waist knife in Hu Beizong's hand. The waist knife was instantly broken into two pieces.
Luan Yunfei landed lightly: "Master Hu, Boss Wang has invited me, but I'm afraid you won't be able to die now."
