Zhao Gou pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Qin Aiqing has thought it through. Since Qin Aiqing has thought it through, what else can I say? Let Qin Aiqing do whatever he thinks. But there is one thing, this matter cannot be done. Spread the word and don't give those people a chance to make trouble. You have to think of a way to make trouble for the Jin people. I am really angry at you for always blackmailing me, the Song Dynasty. The peace agreement stipulates that the annual coins and silk are two hundred and fifty thousand taels each. , but every year the Jin people come up with various names to ask for it. If this continues, it actually increases the Jin people's arrogance. We must find a way. You are the prime minister, you can't ignore it indifferently and respond to every request."

Qin Hui heard the dissatisfaction in Zhao Gou's words and hurriedly stood up and knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I am incompetent. I have lost my power and humiliated the country. I will be punished by death."

Zhao Gou waved his hand and said, "I'm not blaming you. Why are you doing this? Get up and go do things. The Jin man's envoy told him to go back immediately. I won't see him. I've stayed in Lin'an for a long time. It is not appropriate to let the officials know."

Qin Hui hurriedly kowtowed and stood up, resigned from Chunhui Pavilion, feeling relieved. In fact, he had already promised to give them wood and stones worth half a million silver to the Jin people's envoy. The plan had been finalized, and the Jin people's envoy also approved it. In fact, the golden man is not as big as the lion. He only asked for five hundred thousand taels of silver. But he obviously couldn't repay it like this. He had to let the emperor know that he had worked hard to keep the number down. This was a This is a way to win the emperor's approval, but I often use it to my displeasure.

The emperor is still like that. He never directly expresses his opinions. Although his opinions are what he thinks, he always acts like he makes the decision. This may be the reason why the emperor always favors him. Well, I know what kind of person the emperor is and what he is thinking, so I can prescribe the right medicine and deeply agree with him. But at the same time, this obviously requires me to bear all the consequences. Although I know the emperor's thoughts in my heart, There is no choice but to bite the bullet. The emperor is his backer, and he must hold his thigh tightly to control the wind and rain. It is also necessary to do the dirty work for him.

The sun had set and twilight was gradually rising. Qin Hui left the palace and got into his luxurious carriage. Surrounded by more than a dozen attendants, he galloped back to his residence along the royal road. His residence was not far away, less than five minutes from the palace. There is a lot of valuable land on the east side of Wangxian Bridge on the Zhonghe River. His house is very large, with eight openings and eight entrances, and more than sixty rooms. It is extraordinary.

Although it was getting late, there were still many pedestrians on the Imperial Street. People carrying burdens and driving carts blocked the road from time to time. The accompanying servants had to yell at them loudly to make way, and the whips in their hands also cracked in the air. Sound.

When the car arrived at the east of Wangxian Bridge, it was about to turn into the east street intersection, which was the street leading to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Because it had to turn, the speed of the carriage and horses slowed down. The driver who was driving the carriage made a sound, commanding the two horses. The healthy horse turned steadily. At this moment, on the imperial road ahead, a carriage came speeding towards Qin Hui's motorcade.

"Avoid, evade, don't stop, this is the car driven by Prime Minister Qin. If you collide with the car, it will be a death penalty!" Two attendants rode up to meet the car and scolded them sharply. They thought it was a car driven by ordinary people, and they didn't know that the Prime Minister's motorcade was there. this.

sit on the chariot shaft

There was a coachman wearing a torn straw hat. He lowered his head and ignored the warnings of the two attendants. Instead, he raised his whip and whipped the horse's buttocks. The carriage rushed over without any signs of retreat or slowdown.

The two attendants felt that something was wrong, and the scolding became even more severe. Upon seeing this, the other attendants also rushed towards the direction of the carriage. However, the distance between the two sides was too close, and the carriage rushed too fast. Before the attendants were in place to stop them,

The carriage had already rushed to the side of Qin Hui's convoy. The turning convoy exposed Qin Hui's black carriage.

"Protect the Prime Minister!" The two attendants who came forward finally realized that this was a deliberate collision, shouted loudly, drew their swords, rushed forward on horseback, and without hesitation slashed at the coachman on the shaft with their swords.

The coachman on the carriage shouted loudly, reached out and pulled out a spear hidden under the carriage. His body rose into the air, leaping into the air with the speed of the carriage.

"Old thief Qin Hui, suffer death!" the man roared angrily. The red tassel of the spear in his hand shook, drawing an afterimage in the air, and he rushed towards the luxurious black carriage about a few feet away with his gun.

"There are assassins! Protect the Prime Minister!" On the side of the carriage, more than a dozen attendants had come to their senses. A leader of the attendants shouted loudly. He quickly drew his sword and got up from the saddle, meeting the assassin in mid-air.

.

The sword and the spear passed by each other in the air without colliding because the angles of the two sides were different. The assassin used the momentum of the carriage to rush forward faster, so the leader of the attendants failed to hit the spear with the sword. Soldiers from both sides

The blades passed by each other in the air, and even people passed by, but the leader of the attendants was obviously good at martial arts and his reaction was fast enough. Although his body and the blade missed him, he still kicked out at the last moment. This kick

A solid kick hit the assassin's side.

The assassin's spear was originally aimed at the middle and rear side of Qin Hui's carriage, where the seats were. Once it penetrated, the person sitting on the seat would be stabbed to the core. It was obvious that the assassin had calculated the seat of the carriage accurately.

But after being kicked in the ribs by this kick, the direction of the body changed, and the position where the spear pierced the carriage also changed. But with a bang, the head of the diamond spear pierced the rear of the carriage. But this was the case

, the power of this spear was so powerful that it sent sawdust flying, piercing a large hole in the carriage and exiting from the other side.

"Prime Minister Qin!" the attendants shouted in horror. Someone opened the door on the other side and saw Qin Hui lying on the floor of the carriage shivering with a face full of panic. The attendant dragged Qin Hui out of the carriage, and several attendants immediately pulled him out of the carriage.

He is protected within it.

The assassin missed the shot and fell to the ground. He knew by the feeling in his hand that the shot missed. So he cursed angrily, drew his gun and stabbed again quickly. The shot was in the right position, but Qin Hui was no longer in the car. At this time,

At the same time, the two attendants and the leader of the attendants who landed on the ground had rushed behind him. Three long knives slashed at him.

It was only then that the speeding carriage hit Qin Hui's carriage. The horse fell to the ground and rolled over amid flying wood chips. The huge impact smashed the two carriages into pieces, leaving a mess everywhere.

"Protect the prime minister and leave quickly!" the leader of the attendants shouted, slashing with the long knife in his hand, entangled the spear-wielding assassin, making him unable to continue the pursuit. Seven or eight attendants protected Hun Fei.

Qin Hui was so distraught that he ran towards the Prime Minister's Mansion in Hengjie.

The spear-wielding assassin was entangled by three people and could not escape for a while, so he yelled and waved his spear and fought with the three attendants. Qin Hui turned around and saw this situation, but stopped, knowing that he would no longer be in danger.

Well, the assassin was entangled by three attendants and could no longer pose a threat to him.

"Capture him alive for the truth, and ask where he came from." Qin Hui shouted sternly.

What Qin Hui never expected was that as soon as he finished speaking, the carriage carriage that fell to the ground suddenly shattered, and a red shadow shot out from the carriage. Amidst the screams, one man and one sword moved towards Qin Hui and others as fast as lightning.

The people rushed towards them. No one expected that the assassins were actually two people. One was on the shaft of the car, and the other was hidden in the carriage. It was obvious that according to the original plan, they wanted to wait until the two cars collided and then attack them at the same time.

It was a pity that Qin Hui's attendants were extremely vigilant, so the assassin on the carriage had to take action first. The assassin in the carriage was a step slower and could only wait until the two cars collided before breaking out of the car before taking action.

The assassin in red had his face covered, his body was light and his Qinggong was extremely high. After a few ups and downs, he arrived in mid-air in front of Qin Hui and others. The long sword in his hand drew out thousands of rays of light, dazzling the eyes, and pounced from top to bottom.

Next. Three or four attendants guarding Qin Hui raised their long swords and slashed in the air. At this moment, the long sword of the red-clothed man was pointed at the tip of one of the swords. His body turned around, and with the help of this force, it passed over the heads of the two people.

He rushed towards Qin Hui and several other attendants at the rear.

"Old thief, take your life!" the assassin shouted angrily, and it was obvious that he was a woman.

The sword light shrouded the top of his head. Qin Hui was so frightened that he ran back. Four attendants raised their swords to meet him. The sound of swords clashing was heard. One of the attendants groaned and fell to the ground.

His arm was bleeding profusely. No one knew how he was injured. Under the attack of four long knives, each knife was swung away by the opponent's sword. The opponent still had the strength to stab an attendant with one more sword.

It can be seen that the effort is great.

Several attendants were horrified, but they could not flinch at this moment. They raised their swords again and attacked the woman desperately, blocking the woman's way. These people were the most personal guards around Qin Hui, and Qin Hui's life depended on it.

Their lives, if Prime Minister Qin was killed, none of them would survive, so they fought tooth and nail to save him.

The woman in red raised and lowered her long sword, and in the flash of sword light, another attendant had his middle sword, this time on his shoulder. Although the injury was serious, the attendant refused to retreat, roaring like a tiger, and slashed with the sword regardless of the injury on his shoulder.

.The remaining people also rushed to attack desperately, and with a sense of bravery, they dragged the woman to the spot.

In the short period of more than ten breaths during the fight, Qin Hui, who was already over sixty years old, had already escaped more than forty steps. In order to escape for his life, Prime Minister Qin was desperate today, running away regardless of his weak legs and heartbeat.

The woman was extremely anxious. If she delayed any longer, Qin Hui would flee into the side streets. The Prime Minister's Mansion was not far away, and his people would soon get the news and come to the rescue. Thinking of this, the woman screamed,

The long sword in his hand danced like the wind, extremely fast. A moment later, with a scream, the head of a waiter flew up, blood sprayed into the air, and his head was cut off by the female assassin. The rest were cut off by the female assassin.
