Turbulent Times Chapter 549: Killing and killing


"Third Master, Miss Mingyue has gone to bed." In the other courtyard of Dugu Mansion in Dongcheng, an old nanny came to report to the worried Dugu Moyu.

"Very good, you did a good job, let's go down to the butler to receive the reward!" Dugu Moyu glanced at her and said.

The old mama was overjoyed when she heard the words, but she still hesitated and said: "Thank you, my servant, but it's just that Miss Mingyue rarely spends the night outside the main mansion. What should I say?"

Dugu Moyu obviously had already thought up his excuse: "You mean that Yue was tired from playing and fell asleep in another courtyard."

The old lady stepped back.

Miss Mingyue's name is Dugu Mingyue, she is the jewel in the palm of the Dugu clan, the youngest daughter of Dugu Luo, the head of the Dugu family, she belongs to the kind of old-fashioned son, she is beautiful and cute, she is smart and likable since she was a child. So not only Dugu Luo loved her very much, but uncles like Dugu Changsu and Dugu Moyu also loved her very much, especially Dugu Mingyue's more than ten elder brothers took care of her as a treasure all day long.

Before Dharma King Boduo set off this afternoon, he specially ordered Dugu Moyu to find a way to trick Dugu Mingyue from Dugu Lord's Mansion and stay in the other courtyard to prevent Dugu Luo from giving up the position of Patriarch after Dugu Changsu was assassinated. Dugu Moyu will threaten Dugu Luo with the life of a girl at that time.

After the old lady beside Dugu Mingyue left, Dugu Moyu paced back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back. For half the night, he waited for the news that his second brother Dugu Changsu had been killed, but the news just didn't come. Come, even though he also knew that it would not be so fast, at least the news would not come until midnight, but when this thing was about to happen, he finally lost his patience.

Worry and anticipation were two different emotions intertwined in Dugu Moyu's heart, which made him a little upset and restless. It's past the time of Hai, should Dharma King Boduo and his party come back?

At this moment, there were footsteps outside, and Dugu Moyu was pleasantly surprised. He stepped forward and opened the door, and saw King Po Duo walking in with bloodstains all over his body, followed by the same bloodstained king more than 20 dead soldiers.

"Succeeded, you know how to do the following things!" King Bo Duo glanced at Dugu Moyu, and then went to his own place, where there were eight beautiful maids that Dugu Moyu provided for him , ready hot water, he is going to wash the blood, change into clean clothes, and get ready to enter the palace to meet the Emperor of Sui.

"You have made great contributions today. Each of you will be rewarded with one hundred acres of fertile land and five hundred taels of silver. The east courtyard has prepared a meal of wine and meat for you. You go to eat first, and then clean up. The old man will arrange for the land deed and silver Send it to you." Dugu Moyu suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and said to more than twenty dead soldiers who saluted him.

As soon as these dead soldiers left with great surprises, Dugu Moyu recruited a confidant and asked, "Is the food and drink ready in the east courtyard?"

The confidant said in a low voice: "Don't worry, third master, Hedinghong is put in the wine and dishes, and I promise to kill them all."

Dugu Moyu nodded and said, "You've done a good job, go to the housekeeper to withdraw five hundred taels of silver, it's a reward."

The confidant was overjoyed when he heard the words, and saluted respectfully: "Thank you, Mr. San, I will resign from my humble position."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but just as he turned around, he felt a sharp pain in his heart. Before he could scream, his mouth was blocked by Dugu Moyu's hand. The tip of the knife, with a look of despair and disbelief, was killed on the spot.

"Don't blame me, except for His Holiness the Dharma King, everyone who knows about this matter must die." Dugu Moyu slowly placed the body of his confidant on the ground, a trace of guilt flashed across his expression.

At this moment, a confidant guard ran over with a face full of panic, and was stunned when he saw the corpse on the ground.

Dugu Moyu quickly said: "He is the traitor that the enemy planted beside me. He even wanted to assassinate me. I have already killed him. You will clean up his body later."

"Yes, Third Master." The guard looked at Dugu Moyu with a strange face, agreed, and then suddenly remembered what he had to report, and said in panic: "Third Master, it's not good, Er The master brought hundreds of guards and two thousand city guards to surround the other courtyard, and the second master asked you to go out and meet him."

"What, the second brother brought someone here, are you sure it's the second master?"

Dugu Moyu's face turned pale, and he staggered and almost fell to the ground. The sudden news seemed to make him miss the ground, and he was so shocked that he could hardly breathe.

"This must be an illusion, this damned guard is lying to him, just now the Venerable Dharma King said that he has already killed the second brother." Dugu Moyu murmured to himself.

"The villain can see clearly, it is indeed the second master." The confidant guard said with a look of affirmation.

Dugu Moyu was in a state of confusion, but when he thought that no matter why the second brother was still alive, all the people who assassinated the second brother on his side had already died, so he felt a little more at ease, and said to the confidant guard: "You go first Report the news outside the door to His Holiness the Dharma King, and then go to the East Courtyard. There are more than 20 traitorous assassins there, who have been poisoned by my design. You throw all their bodies into the dry well in the backyard, and then seal the dry well .”

The confidant guards saw Dugu Moyu's serious expression, and even faintly panicked. Although they felt that something was wrong, they didn't dare to ask more questions, let alone neglect, and ran away with a promise.

Dugu Moyu suppressed the uneasiness and panic in his heart, and attracted more than a dozen confidant guards to follow him to the outside of the mansion.

This courtyard of Dugu Mansion has been surrounded by more than 2,000 people. In addition to the 500 guards of Dugu's family, there are also 2,000 city guards to assist Dugu Changsu in his actions.

More than two thousand people held torches in their hands, illuminating the front of the mansion like daylight. However, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties and cause the chaos to allow King Bo Duo to take advantage of the chaos and escape, he did not lead people into it.

At this time, someone shouted: "The third master is here!"

The door opened, Dugu Moyu walked out quickly, followed by more than a dozen confidant guards, he forced a smile, stepped forward and asked: "Second brother, what are you doing..."

Before he finished speaking, his expression changed, because he saw the Patriarch's Token in Dugu Changsu's hand, which is something only the Patriarch can take.

Dugu Changsu looked at Dugu Moyu with a complicated expression, and said, "Third brother, you have been controlled by the demon King Bo Duo with sorcery, and it is not good for His Majesty to send him to the palace in vain, and even let the demon lead you into the palace. Someone assassinate me!"

Dugu Moyu's body trembled, his face was pale, and he screamed: "Second brother, you are talking nonsense, I didn't..."
