I’m The King: No. 526: Key

;Walking out of the warm palace, the oncoming cold wind made Tan Feng shrink back, wrapped his body tightly around his big yak, looked up at the snowy sky, and sighed silently.

Among the falling snowflakes, Ning Xin's quiet, faint smile seemed to appear, she opened her mouth to breathe out, but that peaceful smile gradually blurred, leaving him with only a back that is getting further and further away.

He moved his hand, wanting to reach out to catch the receding figure, but just as he stretched out from the big yak, the coolness of the snowflakes falling on his hands made Tan Feng suddenly wake up from his trance.

Bitting his lips lightly, he lowered his head and walked forward, leaving a line of clear footprints in the thin snow on the ground. The path he walks will leave footprints, even if snowflakes fall, Cover up all these footprints, but you can't erase those traces, because some traces are left in people's hearts.

When the heartbroken Tan Feng returned to the small door outside the palace, Li Yuncong was already waiting there.

"The news just came back that Yan Shenghao of Hejian County surrendered to Gao Yuan, and General Zhou's previous arrangements did not work." Li Yuncong said to Tan Feng respectfully.

"Where are the five hundred people left by General Zhou? Are they all dead?" Tan Feng glanced at Li Yuncong. Yan Shenghao actually surrendered without a fight at the last moment, which surprised him a little. Lowering his head, he was really able to bend and stretch, but he was only a little surprised. He didn't expect Yan Shenghao to block Gao Yuan's soldiers, but unfortunately, this guy didn't struggle a bit, otherwise, it would be good to let Gao Yuan lose some troops.

"All of them have been expelled back, and now they are on their way back to Jicheng." Li Yuncong said.

Tan Feng took out a scroll after sitting on the big case where the files piled up like a mountain. Looking at it, he seemed to have forgotten the existence of Li Yuncong, and Li Yuncong also stood respectfully by the case.

Picking up a pen to review the case file in front of him, and wrote a few lines, Tan Feng said without raising his head: "There is something I need you to do!"

"Please command!"

"Clean up, you have to go to Liaoxi." Putting the reviewed file aside, Tan Feng took out another file.

"Going to Liaoxi?" Li Yuncong was taken aback, with a somewhat bewildered look on his face, Liaoxi is exactly where his heart knot lies.

"Taiwei Zhou is coming back from Donghu, but the king doesn't want him to come out of Liaoxi alive." Tan Feng seemed to be talking about a small matter, but Li Yuncong was shocked. Zhou Yuan, then He is one of the top people in Yan country, but in Tan Feng's mouth, he doesn't care like killing a kitten or puppy.

"Liaoxi is under the control of Gao Yuan, so it's hard to start, but you are an expert in this area, so I hope you can complete him satisfactorily."

"Yes, my subordinates will definitely fulfill their mission!"

"Besides Zhou Yuan, you have another person to kill." Tan Feng finally stopped writing in his hand, raised his head, and looked at Li Yuncong.

"Yan Shenghao?" Li Yuncong asked tentatively.

Tan Feng laughed, "You are very smart, you can guess right, I don't care how Zhou Yuan dies, as long as he dies in Liaoxi. But killing Yan Shenghao, you have to pay more attention, this person is the best He died in Jishi City.”

Li Yuncong's face changed color. Jishi City is Gao Yuan's lair now, and it must be the place with the strictest control. It is hard to imagine how difficult it is to assassinate a big man like Yan Shenghao in this place. Can't come back either.

But he couldn't refuse.

"After you come back, Yan Lingwei's deputy commander is still yours." Tan Feng didn't seem to notice the change in Li Yuncong's expression, "You also know that Yan Lingwei has changed a lot now, and I want to return to this position Above, there must be meritorious deeds. Of course, if you don't want to go, I can replace you."

"Thank you for your leadership, I am willing to go!" Li Yuncong bowed.

Seemingly satisfied with Li Yuncong's sharpness, Tan Feng finally put down the pen in his hand, raised his face, looked at Li Yuncong with a smile and said: "This time you did a good job on the mission, Your Majesty is very satisfied, but still Your previous identity was a bit suspicious. I only said that this time it was your crime and meritorious service. I can say it all, the king decided to reward you, but this reward did not fall on you, but your son. He has been secretly made into a palace As a court guard, you will be staying in the palace today. Do things by the king's side, as long as the king likes it, you will be able to achieve success in the future, congratulations!"

Li Yuncong's face turned pale this time, and he bowed deeply in front of Tan Feng, "I will definitely complete this mission."

"You have this ability, I believe in you, by the way, there is one more thing, Lord Ning trusted you the most before, do you know whether Lord Ning has a secret that is not known to everyone other than Yan Lingwei? Strength?" Tan Feng stared at Li Yuncong closely, as long as the other party's eyes changed slightly, it would be impossible to escape his eyes.

There was indeed a change in Li Yuncong's eyes, but it was not what Tan Feng expected, it was an absolutely unexpected look, "Another force?"

"You don't know?" Tan Feng continued to ask.

Li Yuncong shook his head, "Commander, I don't know."

"Even you don't know?" Tan Feng shook his head in disappointment, "But I believe that such a force definitely exists, otherwise, Ning Xin would not disappear from under our noses without a trace .”

Li Yuncong was silent for a moment, "Commander, Lord Ning has been in our business for decades, and you should also understand that the biggest advantage of doing this business is that you don't trust anyone absolutely. If there is such a force , then this power must be in his own hands."

"But now that he is in prison, I don't understand how he directed these people to cover Ning Xin from our sight? Ning Xin must have never left Jicheng, and she wanted to hide someone in Jicheng without doing it for us I know, you can imagine how huge this force is." Tan Feng shook his head and said, "I really can't figure it out."

"Perhaps, the key to this power lies in Miss Ning?" Li Yuncong suddenly had a bold idea, "Master Ning only has such a daughter! If there is someone absolutely trustworthy in Master Ning, then this The person can only be Miss Ning."

"Xin'er!" Tan Feng looked at Li Yuncong in shock, "This is impossible, how can a woman like her have such abilities?"

"Miss Ning doesn't need to use such a skill, she just needs to activate this power." Li Yuncong reminded.

Tan Feng took a deep breath and walked around the room a few times, "You are right, maybe I am really in the middle of the game and can't figure out the key point, but you and the king think about it." Let's be more white, it seems that if you find Xin'er, you can solve this mystery, forget it, I will do this, and you don't have to worry about it."

"The subordinate has resigned." Li Yuncong took a few steps back, turned around and left the house.

Watching Li Yuncong leave, Tan Feng sat down again, pondered for a moment, then stood up and walked out of the room.

After half an hour, Tan Feng appeared in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Ning Zecheng is a big man, so he naturally lived in the deepest part of the prison of the Ministry of Justice. He walked down the long stairs to the dark tunnel. The drops of water oozing from his body showed that he was already deep underground. When he walked forward to the end of the alleyway, an iron door appeared in front of Tan Feng.

An official of the Ministry of Justice who followed Tan Feng hurried forward, took out a key, and opened the iron door.

The outside room is very gloomy and cold, full of iron blood and cruelty, but this room is very comfortably furnished. Not only are tables, chairs, benches and stools complete, there is even a brazier, and the high-quality charcoal is burning faintly. It will not be too big The room was very warm, and an oil lamp illuminated the whole room, and it also shone on a man sitting at the table reading a book by the lamp.

Hearing the sound of the iron door, Ning Zecheng turned his head and saw Tan Feng standing at the door, he didn't show a very angry expression, but just looked at him calmly.

"Coming?"

"Here we come!" Tan Feng walked in and touched the quilt on the bed, "It's very dry and the room is warm, Lord Ning, although you live here, you live better than most Yan people Be comfortable."

"I have to thank Commander Tan for taking care of me!" Ning Zecheng laughed sarcastically, "Otherwise, how could I live so comfortably and live so comfortably."

Tan Feng ignored the other party's sarcasm and sat across from him, "Taiwei Zhou has been released by the Eastern Hu people and is on his way back to Jicheng."

"You will let him come back alive?" Ning Zecheng smiled and shook his head." That's right, it was a battle with an advantage, but in the end it ended up like this, and he lost miserably. Zhou Yuan really deserved it. Go to death. This fool, when the army was defeated, he should have died in a hurry, so that he will die in the hands of his own people now, and become a tool for others to use."

"Xin'er is gone!" Tan Feng jumped to another topic.

Ning Zecheng smiled slightly, but closed his mouth, ignoring Tan Feng.

"You don't look surprised." Tan Feng stared at Ning Zecheng, "You know why I came here."

"Then you are here for nothing."

"You also know that I won't hurt Xin'er, but I can't tolerate the existence of such a power, Mr. Ning, hand over this power, and I guarantee that Xin'er will be safe in this life. I like her, As long as she is willing, I am even willing to marry her, and if she becomes my wife, no one will dare to touch her, and the Ning family will survive because of her."

Tan Feng spoke very earnestly, but Ning Zecheng just looked at the other party with a smile, and said after a while: "People in our business will never trust a person who has betrayed him once, because he will continue Keep betraying. Tan Feng, you didn't come here to tell me these things."

Tan Feng sighed, "I want to try again."

"Then you have failed."

"It's not too much of a failure, at least I've confirmed the existence of this power, and the key to activate this power is Xin'er, as long as Xin'er shows up, everything will be solved." Tan Feng stood up, "Master Ning, in a few days, I can get everything I want, but I still promise you that Xin'er will not be in any danger."

When Tan Feng left and the iron door slammed shut, Ning Zecheng's eyes showed a trace of panic, and he also thought of what Tan Feng was going to do.
