Jin'an Emperor

Chapter 166 Assassin

With the expansion of the strong control area, Jiangling, a city, has gradually become an administrative center integrating military, political and economic affairs in Jing and Jiang, which has greatly replaced Jiankang.

The neat streets, the shops, and the merchants and tourists dressed in various clothes all show the vitality of the city. With the large influx of foreign people, the city has begun to expand, and the new cities on the other side of the river have risen from the ground and are intensifying construction day and night.

The whole city is changing, but what has not changed is Lu Qiang's Assassin's Mansion.

Lu Qiang's mansion is still the original Huan Xuan's house. Huan Xuan likes luxury, so the mansion is magnificent. After Lu Qiang lived in, he felt that it was gorgeous enough. After that, there was no one in the courtyard, and it was not renovated.

Now Jiangling is full of merchants, and all kinds of gorgeous houses have sprung up. In contrast, Lu Qiang's Assassin's Mansion is a little shabby.

Although many merchants took the initiative to renovate their mansions for Lu Qiang, they were rejected one by one by Lu Qiang.

According to Lu Qiang's idea, men's happiness is not based on eating, drinking and enjoying themselves, but on having supreme power, crossing the battlefield and being invincible in the world. Compared with these pursuits, the rest are floating clouds.

There are several buildings that are as inconspicuous as Lu Qiang's mansion. One is the Jiangling government office not far from the Assassin's Mansion, which is Tao Yuanming's office.

One is He Wuji's mansion adjacent to Lu Qiang's mansion. His family is small, and He Wuji is not a publicity person.

The other place is even more inconspicuous. The door is small, and you can't see anyone going in and out at ordinary times. It looks like an ordinary small household, but the details are clear that the owner here is not weaker than any Jiangling official.

This is the home of Liu Sinu, the second person in Zhifengtang.

Speaking of Liu's daughter, many officials in Jingzhou don't know, but if someone insults Lu Qiang behind their backs or does something, they will be invited to Zhifeng Hall for tea in less than three days.

So the upper level of Jingzhou knows that Liu's officials are all afraid of this man who seems to lack masculinity.

But of course, not everyone is afraid of him, including the women around Lu Qiang, especially Sun Yao. According to the current words, Liu Si's daughter is about to become his best friend.

Sun Yao was originally used to walking in the world and was willing to stay in one place for Lu Qiang, but the woman's heart was the most curious. After knowing that the imperial concubine of the State of Yan liked Lu Qiang, she pestered Liu Si's daughter to inquire about the details of this woman.

Is it that she doesn't believe Lu Qiang, but when she encounters this kind of thing, that woman is willing to laugh it off?

If she were someone else, Sun Yao would not treat him as a friend. After all, everyone knows that she will be Lu Qiang's woman in the future, but she can feel that Liu's feelings for Lu Qiang are very unusual, and Lu Qiang also has extraordinary trust in Liu's daughter. If she hadn't known Lu Qiang's personality, she might have thought that Lu Qiang had the habit of Longyang. .

Liu Sinu holds the power of life and death, but there is no woman around her. She is only loyal to Lu Qiang, and she is too feminine. It is difficult to make people not want to be crooked. However, so far, except Sun Yao, no one dares to contact him with Lu Qiang.

Such a dangerous conjecture is to fall to the ground.

Liu Sinu has always envied Sun Yao and others, but this kind of thing can only be buried in the bottom of her heart, so she is very careful about what Sun Yao told her, and her relationship with several girls around Lu Qiang has always been very good.

The news of Lu Qiang's triumphant army has been sent back to Jiangling. While several girls were happy, they also remembered the matter that was told to Liu Sinu.

Early in the morning, after arranging the things in the house, Sun Yao and Chunlan came to find Liu's daughter.

There are other doors in Liu's daughter's mansion, but they are more secretive, and important people come in and out. He gets up earlier every day because he has too many things to do, and he is not as idle as a few girls.

I heard that two girls came to the door and quickly put down their official documents to welcome them.

Sun Yao and the others didn't come here for the first time. They didn't see Liu Sinu and asked directly.

Liu Sinu had already guessed their intention, so she smiled and told the situation of the so-called princess Murongxi to the second daughter, and finally said, "It is said that the grapes that can't be eaten are sour. I guess Murongxi is this mentality, and this guy's imagination is indeed rich enough to contact my family. On people"

Sun Yao is not concerned about this aspect and asked, "So, that woman has never seen him at all. Is that woman beautiful?"

"It is said to be a beautiful, but the most ridiculous thing is that she actually told Murongxi a fairy marriage story, and finally said that her husband is a world-class hero. One day he will wear a golden armor and step on colorful auspicious clouds to marry her. Ha ha! We adults can be called world-class heroes, but what do we have to do with her..."

Before Liu Sinu's words fell, Chunlan, who was beside Sun Yao, suddenly stared at Liu Sinu and said, "She... Did she tell Murong Xi the story of the marriage of the Great Sage?

There is no story of Journey to the West in this era. The immortals are still great saints, and there is no difference in Liu Sinu's heart.

looked at Chunlan unexpectedly and said, "Yes! What's wrong?"

No one knows that in addition to the four maids of Chunlan in Yong'an Palace at that time, there is also Wang Shenai, and who else can be called stunning? So Chunlan's first thought was that the woman was loved by Wang Shen.

"Is the mistress still alive? Is this true?"

No one knows Lu Qiang's feelings for Wang Shen's love better than Chunlan's four girls, but she can't conclude that the woman is the mistress based on just one piece of news.

Seeing that Chunlan's expression was different, Sun Yao also said unexpectedly, "What's wrong?"

Several girls are together every day, and they can be said to talk about nothing. Naturally, Sun Yao also heard Chunlan and others relay this story, but they did not associate it with Wang Shenai. After all, Wang Shenai's death came from a strong mouth, and she already had a preconceived idea in her heart.

Chunlan didn't know whether she was right or not, so she said, "Huang... My mother-in-law has also heard this story"

Of course, there is only one person who can be called the mistress by Chunlan, so Liu Sinu and Sun Yao were stunned when they heard Chunlan's words.

"Could she hear it from somewhere else?"

Although that's the question, Sun Yao was already suspicious. At that time, she was also very clear about Lu Qiang looking for Wang Shen's love in the mountains, so at this time, she couldn't wait to see the woman at once to see if she was the woman who made Lu Qiang's soul haunt.

Chunlan subconsciously shook her head and said, "When Dongmei and I were on the street, we went to many places and heard many ghost stories, but we have never heard the same story as the master."

Liu's daughter also feels that something is serious. If that woman is really the person Lu Qiang has been looking for, she will have to get around her anyway.

I just wanted to say something, but I heard Sun Yao say, "I'm going to Yanguo"

Liu and Chunlan were shocked by Sun Yao's words, but Liu Sinu immediately understood Sun Yao's thoughts, and he also felt that Sun Yao's appearance was indeed the most suitable to investigate this matter.

Chunlan said urgently, "The master won't let you go, General Liu, you'd better send someone!" If it is really the mistress, the master will be very happy. Be sure to send someone to bring the mistress back."

Liu Sinu couldn't help cracking her mouth. If that woman is really the woman Lu Qiang is looking for, it is really difficult to do. With Lu Qiang's personality, she may send out an army to rob people, but it is Kyoto, Yan. Is it so easy to fight? Moreover, in this way, it may hurt the woman's life.

Looking at the two women, she said solemnly, "Two girls, leave this matter to me. In addition, don't let adults know that this matter is related to the lives of countless soldiers and civilians in Jingzhou, and we must be cautious."

paused and said, "Although I agree to let Miss Sun go to Yan, what should I say to the adult?"

Although Liu's daughter didn't make it clear, the two women knew that Tiansong had sent people to assassinate Sun Yao several times. Once Sun Yao left Jiangling, she would definitely give the assassin more opportunities. If something happened to Sun Yao, who could bear this responsibility?

However, except for Lu Qiang, others don't know Sun Yao's personality at all. She knows that Lu Qiang's original match may still be alive. How can she not go and see it with her own eyes?

smiled and said, "It's not so easy to kill me. Also, if he knew that I had asked him to prove it, I'm afraid it would be too late to be happy!" All right, let's do this! I'll go back and clean up, and I'm leaving."

Liu's daughter and Chunlan can't help looking at each other. Isn't Miss Sun too impatient?

They don't know that they certainly want to see Wang Shenai. In addition, Sun Yao is really uncomfortable in Jiangling.

Liu Sinu was helpless. After sending off her two daughters, she immediately began to arrange someone to secretly protect Sun Yao. Now he doesn't know whether to praise himself or scold himself.

If you can find the news of Wang Shenai, you will certainly be praised by Lu Qiang, but in case the news is false, how can he explain it to Sun Yao?

A few days later, Lu Qiang led a large army back to Jiangling. After this battle, there was no power in the rear of Jingzhou that could threaten him. When he was strong in the future, he could fight the last battle with Liu Yu.

Lu Qiang has thought that from now on, the Jingzhou army will start a year of recuperation and training. The information obtained makes him believe that Liu Yu will also recuperate after pacifying Liu Yi.

In this way, we have a tacit understanding with each other, and no one will take the initiative to provoke trouble before they are weak.

100,000 sheep, 10,000 war horses, and 100,000 silver sent by Yao Xing arrived in Jiangling at the same time as Lu Qiang.

This is the ransom finally agreed by Lu Qiang after countless negotiations. After all, Yao Chong's staying in Jiangling is of little use. It's better to exchange him for something useful!

Lu Qiang originally wanted to treat Yao Chong, just as if he had sent him off. After all, his identity was there, but Yao Chong, who was ashamed, excused himself from illness.

Lu Qiang understood his thoughts, but did not force him. He only put a kit and gave it to him and asked him to transfer it to Yao Xing.

Yao Chong did not take the initiative to take what was inside. After returning to China, he handed it over to Yao Xing. Yao Xing opened it and saw that there were only four words "take care of yourself"
