Since he had been reborn and survived, he had to live a carefree life and not live in vain.
Li Liang had already thought about it. If he was discovered, he would just settle the matter.
Something might happen today. Li Liang could feel it. Yesterday, Shen Lian said that Zhang Ying wanted them to rest for the next few days. He was afraid that he had a mission for them.
Lu Jianxing walked over. His expression wasn't too good, and he was a little worried. What's the matter, Brother Lu? Li Liang asked.
Li Liang learned that Lu Jianxing's father was a centurion. After his death, Lu Jianxing inherited his father's position.
However, the court was in chaos. Lu Jianxing, who was supposed to be a hundred households, was filled by a hundred households. He was only appointed as a general flag in the future.
Lu Jianxing had an old mother at home who had been thinking about the matter of the hundred households.
Lu Jianxing was very filial. He couldn't bear to see his mother's hopes go down the drain, so he really wanted to get an official position.
Thus, he spent some silver to find Zhang Ying to bribe him.
Zhang Ying was obviously lying. What ability did he have to let Lu Jianxing fill the vacancy?
Zhang Ying only wanted some silver, and he had always complained that there was too little silver to buy. However, Lu Jianxing became serious and asked Zhang Ying a few times. It seemed that he was rejected again today.
Lu Jianxing had always been honest and didn't have much silver. If he had enough silver, he wouldn't have needed to find Zhang Ying.
Zhang Ying had probably already spent the money. Even if it was to show respect to the higher-ups, it would only be for his own sake.
Not long after, a sedan chair stopped outside and a group of people rushed in. They were dressed in crimson clothes and black hats.
Eunuch! The people from the East Chamber had arrived. Li Liang raised his eyebrows.
Zhang Ying hurriedly went up to him with a flattering expression. He wished he could stick his butt out and let his father-in-law kick him twice.
"Greetings, Eunuch Zhao." Zhang Ying cupped his hands and bowed.
To be honest, Zhang Ying was a little afraid. Could it be that Li Liang had hurt their people?
"Which one is Lu Jianxing? Which one is Li Liang?" Zhao Jingzhong asked, giving Zhang Ying a fright.
"Eunuch Zhao, it's them.”Zhang Ying smiled. In a room, Li Liang, Zhao Jingzhong, Lu Jianxing, Shen Lian and Jin Yichuan were inside.
"The emperor demoted Wei Zhongxian to Fengyang to guard the mausoleum. Do you know when Wei Zhongxian left the capital?”Zhao Jingzhong looked around. There was no one else.
"Eunuch, early in the morning.”Lu Jianxing replied. If they set off now, when would they be able to catch up to him?
Hearing this, Li Liang and the other three looked at each other and guessed something in their hearts.
"If the horse is fast, we can catch up to him in Fucheng County at midnight.”Shen Lian placed his hand on the hilt of the sword.
"Just the four of you go. The Emperor wants Wei Zhongxian dead.”Zhao Jingzhong's voice was faint and filled with killing intent.
Something was wrong. Li Liang frowned.
There were only the five of them in the room. No one else knew what Zhao Jingzhong was saying, nor did they have any evidence.
He said that the Emperor wanted Wei Zhongxian dead. Did the Emperor really say that?
No matter what the emperor said, it would not end well for him if he got involved in this matter.
It seemed like this Zhao Jingzhong wanted to kill him silently and use him as a scapegoat.
The people from the East Hall who had gone to save Cao Qincheng must have had something to do with Zhao Jingzhong.
"Eunuch, can I not go? I haven't been feeling well recently.”Li Liang refused.
"You want to defy the decree?" Zhao Jingzhong sneered.
"The Emperor wants you to kill Wei Zhongxian, but it doesn't have to be us, but…"
Just as Li Liang was about to refuse, he suddenly recalled the scene of the beginning of the Embroidered Spring Sword. In order to smoothly fight with Zhao Jingzhong in the future, he chose to accept this task.
The night was as dark as ink. The rain poured down. The wind howled. The horse galloped.
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Li Liang and the others changed to a few fast horses and rushed forward without stopping.
The tail of lightning burned the black clouds, and the feet of the rain flew silver lines. The wind and rain were dark, and tonight was suitable for killing.
The few of them wore straw raincoats and bamboo hats. They did not miss a single inn along the way.
Finally, outside an inn, Li Liang saw someone guarding the door. There were even dead people outside.
It seemed that he had caught up. Wei Zhongxian was probably worth a few Hell Points.
"Brother Li Liang, this is an opportunity. We have no connections and no money. We can only rely on risking our lives to find an opportunity.”Lu Jianxing's voice was buried in the rain, unable to hide his surging desire.
"You mean, the four of us will go and kill Wei Zhongxian, then go back and claim the credit?”After a pause, Li Liang thought for a moment and continued,"Sure, I'll promote you to a hundred households."
The four of them slowly crept over. There were still a few people behind them. Li Liang had them hide.
"Wang Qi, take them and guard outside. Kill all the enemies who run out.”Li Liang ordered.
Li Liang touched the Ravenous Wolf on his waist. It was very cold in the rainy night.
The knife was thirsty, it was time to drink the snow.
The rain poured down like a torrential downpour. The raindrops fell rapidly on the ground, and the dead leaves on the ground drifted in the rain.
With the sound of the rain as a cover, Li Liang and the other three crawled on the roof tiles and looked into the courtyard.
In the courtyard, a group of people gathered together. Because of the heavy rain, the security zone had been reduced to the courtyard. This was a good thing.
Normally, with so many people on the other side, it would be difficult to get close.
On the other side of the roof, there was someone on sentry duty. Lu Jianxing pointed at him, and Jin Yichuan was about to sneak over and get rid of the sentry first.
Li Liang volunteered.
Lu Jianxing was touched. Brother Li Liang was really an honest person.
First, he agreed to his request and took the risk to help him get this credit. Then, he was very proactive and was willing to do these trivial things.
No matter what Lu Jianxing was thinking, Li Liang had already slowly approached that person.
Like a leopard hunting its prey, it silently approached slowly and in an instant, it stretched out its sharp claws, revealing its bloody mouth and biting its prey with its sharp teeth, killing it with one strike.
Li Liang covered the man's mouth to prevent him from making a sound. The knife pierced through the man's vocal cords and cut his neck.
His movements were concise, lethal, and fast, as if this person had never existed.
This was the beginning. The attack time had fallen into a countdown. It was not clear how long it would take. The other party would realize that the sentries were gone, but they would definitely discover it.
Li Liang looked at Lu Jian Xing and made a gesture. Both sides understood.
The three of them were in the front, and Li Liang was at the side. They moved forward together. Li Liang walked to the back and looked at the room in the middle. The second floor was brightly lit and he narrowed his eyes.
The raindrops fell on the Embroidered Spring Saber, shattering it into pieces. It kept breaking and squirming, washing away the blood.
"Who?"
In the courtyard, someone threw out a long spear. The tip of the spear pierced through the mist and spun as it shot out. It passed by Shen Lian and Shen Lian could see the water stains on the spear.
Lu Jianxing, Shen Lian, and Jin Yichuan flipped over and landed in the courtyard. They pulled out their knives and faced the crowd.
A great battle was about to break out!
On the other side, Li Liang hooked his arm around the eaves and landed on the second floor.
Immediately, he crashed through the window. The window shattered and fell to the ground. Li Liang held his knife and rushed forward.
"Eunuch Wei?
Li Liang's knife was placed across his neck, and it was bone-chilling.
Beside him stood a young eunuch who was shivering. Wei Zhongxian threw the die in his hand. The die spun in the bowl.
"Sir, are you here to kill me? Wei Zhongxian's voice was sinister and sharp.
He heard that Wei Zhongxian liked gambling and was obsessed with wine and women.
At this moment, besides the dice, there were several jars of fine wine beside them. It seemed that lust was a warning.
Wei Zhongxian stood up and said faintly," Sir, if you kill me, I'm afraid you won't be able to report back."
"Chongzhen, that kid, why did you kill me? Am I full of evil? Then you're underestimating the emperor.
"I, Wei Zhongxian, have been in power for eight years. Now that the tree has fallen, the monkeys have scattered.
"Northwest bandits, Liaodong also has Huang Taiji, internal and external troubles, need
What do you want? You need money. What the emperor lacks is military pay.”
Outside, thunder and lightning flashed, the wind blew, and the rain poured. The thunder threatened to pull down the three mountains, and the rapid rain was like a hundred rivers falling.
Li Liangdao moved away slightly. Wei Zhongxian walked to the table beside him and opened the silk. There was a pile of gold underneath.
Wei Zhongxian tempted," There are four hundred taels of gold here. How much money do you get in a year? If you let me live, this is all yours."
"If you kill me, my descendants will come and take revenge. You won't be able to live.”
Candle light suddenly flashed, Wei Zhongxian's shadow like a ghost, eloquent words.
" It's indeed a troublesome matter." Li Liang snorted coldly." Eunuch Wei, I don't think I can live if I kill you."
"You big shots are scheming against each other, and the ones who die are us errand boys.
"Why don't you point out a way out?
Wei Zhongxian laughed." You're a smart man. I know everyone in the Brocade Guard, from the Commander to the Banner Officer. I've never seen you before."
"I'm Li Liang. I just joined the Embroidered Uniform Guards and was promoted to a small flag officer.”
"Li Liang, it looks like you're quite capable. You've been promoted quite quickly." Wei Zhongxian muttered. However, you shouldn't get involved in this matter. You're just a chess piece. If you kill me, you won't be able to live.
"Why don't you come with me and leave the capital? I'll guarantee you wealth and honor.”
"It seems that you don't have any good ideas. It's a pity that you couldn't save yourself.”" I'll kill you," Li Liang said." The money is mine too."
"You want credit and money. You're really greedy. I like it, hahahaha.”Wei Zhongxian laughed hysterically.
Next to him, a knife appeared from the young eunuch's sleeve. It was not aimed at Li Liang, but at Wei Zhongxian.
Li Liang suddenly thought of an idea. He threw out his knife and stabbed the Embroidered Spring Knife into the chest of the young eunuch beside him, nailing him to the wall.
Pulling out the Embroidered Spring Knife from the corpse, the smell of blood filled the air. Li Liang was like a ferocious demon." Eunuch Wei, I won't kill you. I want the money. You protect me, and I protect you. How about it?"”
"Deal!" Wei Zhongxian laughed sinisterly and was swallowed by the flames.
Below, Lu Jianxing chopped down a person in front of him and kept muttering to himself," I've had enough of this useless life. This is an opportunity. I'll grab it. Turn the tables, Baihu."
On the second floor, Li Liang walked out of the sea of fire and threw out a token. He shouted to the people below,
"Eunuch Wei is already dead.
A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky. It was as bright as day. There was no sound below except for the sound of rain.
The group of people returned as the horses galloped.
Along the way, Lu Jianxing was unusually excited. There was hope for a hundred households.
Li Liang's expression was calm. If he killed Eunuch Wei, no matter if he died or not, there would be a lot of trouble.
Maybe not only the eunuchs wanted to kill him, but even his boss wanted to kill him.
This trip was busy, but he didn't gain much.
However, on the way back, he secretly hid all the gold in the alternate dimension.
