Dressed as the Cannon Fodder Ex-Wife of the Regent Chapter 562: Don’t let the rich water flow to outsiders
After a long while, Queen Mother Guo's anger calmed down. After pondering for a moment, she narrowed her eyes and said: "Since the Ouchi guards can't deal with it, we will use the methods in the world."
After hearing this, Qinglian asked hesitantly: "Does the Queen Mother mean to continue hiring killers?"
Empress Dowager Guo frowned. In fact, she did not trust the killers in the world.
The last time they were hired to assassinate Wen Yanyang, they also ended in failure.
But the Ouchi guards cannot even deal with two charlatans. If they are sent out again, they will only lose more. Moreover, if this matter spreads, it will definitely damage the royal family's face.
The master and apprentice pair are now heading to Xiangzhou. They must have not given up on Gu Linchao. How can she let them go?
They must die!
Thinking about it, a poisonous look flashed in her eyes, "Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man. You can ask someone to offer a reward. Anyone who can kill the master and disciple and Wen Shengyang will be rewarded with a thousand taels."
Qinglian's heart trembled when she heard this, but she didn't expect that the Queen Mother still didn't give up the idea of killing Wen Sheng.
"Do you want to use the previous killer building again?" She lowered her head and asked for instructions.
"Use it. They failed last time, so I don't believe they can still defeat this time with the heavy reward." Empress Dowager Guo frowned.
In her opinion, money and silk are alluring.
She offered such a huge reward, so she didn’t believe that Akabane Lou didn’t try his best to assassinate him.
Actually, Shen Qingning is the second best. After all, Gu Linchao doesn't like her at all, and Wen Hengyang is the person she wants to get rid of the most. But what is Shen Qingning? If she dared to have any wrong thoughts, she would have to pay the price with death.
"Slave, I'll go right now." Qinglian responded respectfully and withdrew.
……
In a hidden mountain col outside the capital.
Xiao Yan bowed and walked out of a cave with a disgraceful face. Then he took a few sips and refused to give up. He took the water bag from the attendant and rinsed his mouth several times before giving up.
"My lord, can this place really lead to the palace?" the attendant asked with some uncertainty.
Xiao Yan handed the water bag back to him, wiped the water droplets on his chin, and said firmly: "Of course you can, but it will take some time to dig this passage."
Hearing this, the attendant felt a little sad and said, "It's really time-consuming. I've been digging for half a month and I only dug a little bit."
Xiao Yan muttered: "There are many rocks around here, so it is difficult to dig. After passing this section, digging should be much easier. By the way, hire more people and let them dig in turns. As long as it is day and night If you don't stop, I believe you will be able to dig it out soon."
"Yes." The attendant responded respectfully.
After Xiao Yan checked around, he came back and said: "Zhou Jun, I leave this place to you. You must urge them to dig faster, but don't force them too much. Eat three meals a day and prepare more meat and wine." , don’t treat them harshly.
I'll go back and take a rest. I'll come back in two days and check back. If anything happens, please report it to me in time. "As he spoke, he hit his sore lower back.
In order to dig this tunnel, he didn't get much rest during this time.
Relying on his familiarity with the topography of the capital and the palace, he spent several days personally drawing the topography, and then personally selected the workers and went to the site to inspect. After being busy for many days, he could finally rest today. For a moment.
"I understand, my lord, please feel free to go back." Zhou Jun said.
Xiao Yan patted him on the shoulder and rode away.
Zhou Jun is the son of his family. He is reliable and loyal. He feels relieved to leave this place to him.
As for why he wanted to dig this secret tunnel, it was naturally for his old sister.
Gu Heng used the elder sister to restrain Hengzhi, but the elder sister was so stubborn that she risked her own life and threatened Hengzhi to leave her alone.
What a mess.
He had to solve this problem for Hengzhi.
Otherwise, one day the uncle and nephew really clashed, and when it came time to use force, wouldn't Hengzhi have to restrain his hands for the sake of his sister?
At that time, he would steal the old sister out of the palace. In this way, Hengzhi would be in an invincible position without any worries.
Xiao Yan was complacent about his plan and made up his mind to dig out this secret passage as soon as possible.
……
Tunzhou, Chiyu Tower.
The second elder looked at the golden gold in front of him and almost laughed out loud, but finally remembered that his employer was still there, so he said with a serious face: "Don't worry, girl, what you told me, we promise to complete it smoothly this time."
Qinglian, who was wearing a curtain hat, nodded after hearing this, "If you can get things done, the other five hundred taels of gold will be delivered on time."
"Girl, just go back and prepare the gold, and we will definitely offer Wen Mingsheng's head when the time comes." The second elder assured, patting his chest.
A close disciple heard this, and the corner of his mouth twitched suspiciously.
The second elder was so rebellious that he called the original poster by his first name and even wanted to take his head.
Qinglian was satisfied, and her thoughts were as the Empress Dowager said. These people in the world were greedy for profit. As long as they promised a lot of money, they would not have to sacrifice their lives.
Thinking about it, she stood up and said in a somewhat arrogant tone, "In this case, I feel relieved and say goodbye."
"Zhao Kun, send this girl off for me." The second elder winked at the close disciple on the side, and then said with a smile.
Zhao Kun understood ~IndoMTL.com~ and immediately stepped forward, "Girl, please!"
After they left, the second elder touched the gold in the box and smiled from ear to ear.
As expected, as the poster guessed, the people behind the scenes were unwilling to give in and came to hire them again.
Zhao Kun went for a long time before coming back, "That girl was very cautious. She changed carriages several times in Dunzhou City, and when she finally left the city, our people almost lost her.
Arrived outside the city, she took another carriage, and after going around in a circle, she went to the direction of the capital. However, I saw that the driver of the carriage had a somewhat feminine face, and looked very much like the **** in the palace. ”
Hearing this, the second elder pondered for a moment and then said: "So, the person who wants to kill the building owner is probably from the palace."
"I think it's very possible." Zhao Kun nodded, and then asked: "The second elder really wants to take over this business?"
The second elder gathered his thoughts and touched the gold on the table, "Nonsense, we have already collected the gold, how can we regret it? Besides, if we don't take over this business, that person will be hired elsewhere. The original poster said that the good news should not flow to outsiders."
The corner of Zhao Kun's mouth twitched, and he had nothing to say. But the employer must have never dreamed that the person they wanted to kill would be their landlord.
This gold was given to them for free.
"Zhao Kun, take a few disciples with you now and go to Xiangzhou to tell the poster about this matter. You can just follow the poster's arrangements on how to act."
"Yes." Zhao Kun responded and went down to prepare.
……
Xiangzhou.
Over the past month, Wen Gangyang has been suffering from severe nausea and vomiting. She would vomit several times a day, and would vomit almost anything she ate. Later, she lost her appetite for anything.
Even Dr. Lin, who had excellent medical skills, tried several methods on her, but none of them worked.
