Ghost soldiers killing people? Han Ling frowned slightly. He immediately associated it with Ji Wuye. It turned out that the ghost soldiers 'robbery of military pay was only one of the preparations for the army. They also wanted to eliminate the enemies in the court in the name of revenge. Dead men could not tell the truth. It was a good plan to kill two birds with one stone.
However, no matter how he looked at it, it was a good thing. It was just a dog-eat-dog show. Han Ling sneered.
It was said that creating waves in a pool of stagnant water, seeking a chaotic character, maneuvering in troubled times, and obtaining a controlling character were the essence of the Ghost Valley Sect. He dared not say that he could maneuver freely, but it was easy to fish in troubled waters. He still knew how to sit and watch and reap benefits.
The current Han Dynasty was like stagnant water. The court was divided into two major forces. One was led by Zhang Kadi, who seemed to be loyal to the King of Han, but was weaker. The other was under Ji Wuye. These two forces were like two stones that were competing with each other. The strongest Qin State was reforming and building canals, accumulating food and preparing for war, while the other side was still fighting for power. As long as the small world of the Han Palace was peaceful, it would be difficult to not destroy the capital, regardless of the flood outside the Han King.
According to the historical records, the Han Kingdom had been destroyed for neither too long nor too short a time. At most, it had been around ten years. Han Ling knew that there were no perfect eggs in a destroyed nest, so he needed to think about his future life. He began to think more and think further. It was not enough to just get rid of Ji Wuye's power. That would only make Zhang Kedi the only one in power, and the situation would not be much better than now. One of the reasons for Qin's success was to consolidate power. The King of Qin would take back all power after expelling Lu Buwei in the future. There were too many voices in Korea now!
Han Ling's eyes lit up and he chuckled. He would let Ji Wuye make a scene first. He should focus on earning money and accumulating his strength.
.....
In just a few days, the four judges sent by the King of Han to preside over the case of the ghost soldiers robbing the salary were killed one after another. Each of them died in a strange manner. On the wall behind them was a big "return" written in blood, as if they were really the ghost soldiers taking revenge. However, if one were to carefully speculate, these seemingly unrelated people had one thing in common, and that was the main confidant of the court.
In the small courtyard of the Seven Wonders Clan, Han Ling sat at a stone table, drinking while waiting for news.
Very soon, Tang Qi heard a commotion coming from the side door. A faint human voice floated out, and there were only a few short words.
After Tang Qi heard this, he narrowed his eyes and smiled,"Young Master, a crow flew out of the roof of the General's manor."
Han Ling raised his eyebrows. After Mo Ya tried to assassinate the chief judge several times, the people from the Seven Wonders Clan who were monitoring the General's Estate discovered that every time a crow secretly flew out of the General's Estate, the chief judge would definitely die that night. Therefore, he had been waiting for this news recently.
He put down his wine glass, got up, and chuckled," Looks like it's time for Lu Xiaofeng to meet this black crow again."
.....
The faint cawing of crows could be heard from within the high eaves courtyard. This was the residence of the new chief judge, Chief Historian Nangong Cuo.
Nangong Cuo frowned when he heard the crows cawing. He looked outside. It was dark, and he could vaguely see crows descending. There was a saying among the people that crows were ominous birds. Now that they had appeared here, he shook his head and continued to look at the case file in frustration. There were still five days to solve the case. Even if the ghost soldiers did not come, he would still be punished by the Han King. His life was hanging by a thread.
A black figure suddenly landed at the door like smoke and said," Lord Nangong seems to be very troubled by the ghost soldier case. Why don't I tell you the truth?"”
Nangong Cuo raised his head in shock and saw a devilish man." You are…" The ink crow of the night?"
He instantly understood the cause and effect. Pointing at the man in black, he said in a trembling voice," So Ji Wuye planned this from the beginning to the end!”
Mo Ya only sneered as he moved forward. With two black feathers in his hand, he slashed Nangong Cuo's neck, causing blood to splatter everywhere. He looked at Nangong Cuo who had collapsed on the table and said indifferently," It seems that Lord Nangong finally knows the answer. At least he didn't die with regrets."
Mo Ya retracted his gaze and stretched out his hand toward the door. With true energy oscillation, he controlled the crow outside to fly in. The crow's beak held a feather. After it was stained with the blood on the table, it drew a big handprint on the wall behind it. In the middle was the word " return."
Mo Ya had put in a lot of effort to complete the mission that Ji Wuye had given him. However, he did not know that he had failed more than half of the mission from the beginning. Because the situation was tense now, the Imperial Army was inspecting the city at all times to prevent any mistakes. It had been a long time since anyone had gone to the cave where the gold was hidden.
At this moment, a teasing voice suddenly sounded from outside the door." This bloody handprint is quite decent. If you can't be a killer one day, perhaps you can consider becoming an artist here to make a living."
Mo Ya's heart skipped a beat. He looked outside the door and saw a four-browed young man in a blue and white robe standing there calmly with a folding fan in his hand. He frowned and said," Lu Xiaofeng."
Han Ling leisurely patted his folding fan and looked at Mo Ya with a light smile." It seems like you still remember me. I wonder what you think of my suggestion just now?”
Han Ling leaned against the door and looked at Mo Ya. He had come here for nothing but to poach Ji Wuye. If he wanted to achieve great things, he would not be able to do it alone or with two or three little kittens. Ji Wuye was a good example.
Mo Ya had an inexplicable feeling that something was wrong. He said without batting an eyelid," Did you come here just to find an artist? If you're willing to be a guest, there are quite a number of painters better than me in the General's residence for you to choose from."
Han Ling smiled and looked at the folding fan in his hand calmly as he threw out a heavy bomb." Sigh, I wonder if the general you mentioned will let you go back alive if he finds out that your hidden military pay has disappeared."
" What?!" Mo Ya's heart skipped a beat.
