"Mother Mu, I vaguely remember that Jin Yiming seemed to have been shot to death by me."
Shen Lang sighed secretly in his heart, but his face looked blank. He raised his hand and spoke: "The wound on his forehead..."
Mu Qingxue raised her hand and struck Jin Yiming's head into pieces with a loud bang.
"Now I've beaten him to death."
Mu Qingxue said calmly: "I need this credit for catching the head, is there any problem?"
At the same time, she was secretly whispering:
Shen Lang actually still remembers beating Jin Yiming to death?
Well, he is a Taoist wizard who comes out every five hundred years. He is born with a powerful spirit. Before he has practiced the "contemplation method", he has strong enough spiritual thoughts to cultivate more than one seventh-grade Taoist skill.
Given the strength of his soul, the two small memory-erasing instruments given to me by "Master Wanfa" may not be able to completely erase some of his profound memories.
She had no doubt that Shen Lang also remembered other things besides Jin Yiming's murder.
Because in her opinion, no matter how talented Shen Lang is, it is impossible to completely resist the magic weapon refined by a first-class great master.
I can barely remember the cause of Jin Yiming's death because he had clashed with Jin Yiming many times and he killed him with his own hands, which left a deep impression on him.
Faced with Mu Qingxue "stealing the credit" in public, Shen Lang thought to himself for a while, without saying anything, he just bowed his hands to Mu Qingxue and said, "Since Mr. Mu needs this credit, then let's count him as the one who killed him.
"
Mu Qingxue was categorical:
"What does 'even' mean? I was the one who killed the person!"
Shen Lang didn't argue with her for the time being, he just nodded and said:
"Yes, he was killed by Muda people."
But he was thinking in his heart: However, all the pirates present now know that Jin Yiming was killed by me with a musket. You want to "compete for credit" with me, but the pirates will not keep it secret. They will say anything when they are drunk.
If you dare to speak out, sooner or later this matter will spread.
Besides, even if you "fight for merit", how can the emperor's anger be so easily appeased?
Once the emperor starts to be unreasonable, vent his anger on others, and implicate innocent people, these are basic operations.
As an undercover agent sent by you, I participated in the entire incident on King Shark Island and the Nanhai Faction. I helped you lock down King Shark Island, sabotage the Heroes Conference, destroy the King Shark Gang, and personally captured Jin Yiming, who was originally the "culprit."
"It was originally within the scope of the emperor's retaliation!
When Shen Lang sighed secretly, the pirates had subtle expressions:
The people in the imperial court are really domineering, taking the credit of their subordinates, and they are so confident. We thieves dare not do this, otherwise our brothers will rebel sooner or later. But then again...
If Mrs. Mu had not been present, Jin Nanfei would have rescued Jin Yiming and Zhu Yunfei long ago, so Mr. Mu said that she also killed Jin Yiming, which is logically valid.
Only Chen Yuniang felt something was wrong:
Mu Qingxue sent Shen Lang as an undercover agent and came to King Shark Island alone, adhering to her promise. With her behavior that she was unwilling to give up even to an undercover soldier, how could she blatantly steal the credit from her subordinates in public?
Or a subordinate who has made great achievements...
Even if it makes sense in theory, this matter is detrimental to her reputation...
Chen Yuniang thought about it over and over, but she couldn't figure out why Mu Qingxue did this.
At this time, Mu Qingxue spoke again and ordered the pirates:
"Capture the heads of Jin Nanfei and Zhu Yunfei for me and put them in saltpeter. The bodies were buried on the spot. There are also the bodies of those innocent servants in the pool of blood... Could you please help me fish them out and choose
It’s buried in the ground.”
Then he said to Shen Lang:
"You come with me."
After saying that, he walked towards the gate of Nanhaipai Mountain in Qianshan.
Shen Lang nodded slightly to Chen Yuniang and quickly followed Mu Qingxue.
Chen Yuniang was silently thinking hard about Mu Qingxue's motive for grabbing the credit, but she didn't send anyone over to keep an eye on them this time.
Just when Shen Lang was following Mu Qingxue, walking along the mountain trail towards the front mountain.
Suddenly, an eagle cry was heard faintly in the sky.
Shen Lang's heart moved. He suddenly looked up and saw a large black eagle hovering hundreds of meters above the ground.
Seeing the big eagle, an idea flashed in Shen Lang's mind and he clapped his hands and said:
"I know how the Nanhai Sect got the news in advance!"
Mu Qingxue also discovered the big eagle. Although it was hundreds of meters away from the ground, her eyesight could still tell at a glance that it was an extremely large eagle with a wingspan of more than one foot.
"That eagle is not a mortal thing, it must be a monster!" Mu Qingxue said, then looked at Shen Lang: "How did the Nanhai Sect know the news in advance?"
"That's the big eagle!"
Shen Lang raised his hand and pointed at the giant eagle in the sky:
"On the day of the Heroes Conference on King Shark Island, Jin Yiming stepped on this eagle and flew into the venue dozens of feet in the air. This eagle is powerful enough to carry people and fly, and maybe it can also fly through storms from high altitudes!
"When we were trapped on King Shark Island by the three-day storm, the giant eagle may have already passed through the storm area and rushed back to Jiange Island to report the news. With its speed, the Nanhai Sect may have caught us just after we set off from King Shark Island.
By then, the news had already been received.
"It is precisely because of this that the Nanhai Sword Sect was able to evacuate so calmly and the mountain gate was kept so clean!"
Just as he was talking, the giant eagle circled for a while and then flew towards the north. Shen Lang hurriedly said:
"Sir, I'm afraid this eagle has gone to report the news again! Can you shoot it down?"
Mu Qingxue squinted at the giant eagle, estimated the distance, and shook her head helplessly:
"It flies too high and I can't reach it."
The warrior is not a Taoist monk. Although he can attack from a distance, the farthest range of a third-grade warrior's aerial attack is only a hundred feet. How can he reach the big eagle that is more than two hundred feet above the ground?
The big eagle was very alert and alert. It seemed that it was aware of Mu Qingxue's threat. It always kept its height and did not give her a chance to take action.
Now that it wants to leave, Mu Qingxue really has nothing to do with it.
As for tracking it and seeing who it is going to send a message to, it is even more impossible.
Mu Qingxue can't fly, and this is the sea. How can he catch up with a giant eagle soaring in the blue sky?
Shen Lang had no choice. His Sky Demon Fire Crow was still being cultivated in an egg. It had not hatched yet, and it was impossible to release it to hunt down the big eagle.
So I can only sigh:
"It's a pity that we can only let the big eagle fly away to report the message. I don't know who it will report to next..."
Mu Qingxue thought:
Either they are the remaining members of the Nanhai Sword Sect, or they are Duke Ying. It is impossible to fly all the way to the capital to report to the emperor, right?
At this time, Shen Lang said regretfully:
"Jin Nanfei fought hard and died. Jin Yiming and Zhu Yunfei also died. Only the pirates from the Shark King Gang are left. I'm afraid it's impossible to overthrow the Duke of Ying."
Mu Qingxue hummed softly and said calmly:
"Although this trip failed to achieve the ultimate goal, it at least shattered the Nanhai Sword Sect and Ying Guogong's plot to control pirates. It also killed the only three true energy realms of the Nanhai Sword Sect and captured all the leaders of the Shawanli gang.
, pacified King Shark Island. You and Chen Yuniang also killed the big bandit Gui Wangdong.
"You have done a great job on this mission. I will report your contribution and you will be rewarded. In addition, after returning to Yingzhou, you should not follow up on the matter of Duke Yingguo. I will arrange for you to enter
The capital will recommend you to Lord Yan."
Shen Lang was slightly startled:
"Don't I need to participate in Duke Ying's plan?"
"No need." Mu Qingxue said calmly:
"I have said before that the Duke of Ying's mansion has a big tree with deep roots and is not so easy to deal with. Using pirates to collect evidence of the Duke of Ying's crimes is just one way. Now that this way is blocked, other methods must be used.
"This life will not end in a short time, and your talent should not be delayed. So, you go to the capital to further your studies!"
Her real thought was that since the Duke of Ying was working for the emperor and shared a dark secret with the emperor, unless the emperor gave up the Duke of Ying, it would be almost impossible to overthrow the Duke of Ying through normal channels.
An impossible mission.
The key is Jin Nanfei. Jin Yiming's death will inevitably arouse the emperor's hostility.
If the emperor wants to deal with her, Mu Qingxue, secretly, he will first deal with the people around her.
If Shen Lang still stays in Yingzhou and follows her to fight against the Duke of Ying, and then the emperor notices him through the Duke of Ying...
Then his end will probably be very bad.
As an emperor, he doesn't care whether he is a genius or not.
As for Shen Lang's temperament...
Although Jin Yiming was just a shady illegitimate prince, looking at the treatment he received, it was clear that the emperor was quite interested in him. With Shen Lang's intelligence, he could definitely figure this out.
But he still shot as soon as he said he would, and shot Jin Yiming in the head with two shots without taking the prince seriously at all.
Now thinking about Shen Lang's arrogance and madness when he fired the gun, even the King of Heaven could not stop him, Mu Qingxue couldn't help but feel frightened.
Jin Nanfei and Zhu Yunfei were actually right. Even she couldn't make up her mind to kill Jin Yiming at that time.
Dongtu has a dynasty history of tens of thousands of years.
The majesty of the imperial authority has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
In the eyes of the people of the East, the emperor is the "Son of Heaven" who exercises authority on behalf of Heaven.
Unless it is at the end of the dynasty, natural disasters and rebellions occur, the people are in dire straits, and the emperor completely loses the "Heaven Scroll", then no matter how absurd it is, a minister can only work hard to give advice. If he can face his fault, he is already a minister.
limit.
And the majesty of imperial power will naturally be extended to the emperor's heirs.
Even if they are just illegitimate children, they are still the blood of the emperor, sons and grandsons of dragons. How can the ministers be qualified to deal with them?
No matter how many Dachu pills Mu Qingxue had taken, she had never imagined killing a prince.
The most they can do is arrest him and hand him over to the clan's mansion for prosecution - yes, the imperial court has no right to judge the prince. Even if the prince commits a heinous crime, he can only be handed over to the clan's mansion for prosecution or dealt with by the emperor himself.
Shen Lang dared to kill the prince, and his "lawlessness" frightened Mu Qingxue, but she couldn't help but feel a hint of admiration, and even some subtle longing - Shen Lang could do things that she didn't dare to do!
If such a madman joins the Divine Catcher Hall...
Presumably it can better remove those abscesses that are constantly growing on Dachu's body, right?
To maintain the laws of the court and bring stability to the world is not for the sake of one family and one family, but for the well-being of the people.
After all, if the officialdom is filled with lawless tigers and wolves, and the rules of the court are completely broken, the world will be in chaos. The people who will suffer the most will always be ordinary people.
In troubled times, humans are worse than dogs!
This is Yan Tianying’s philosophy.
Mu Qingxue also believes in this concept.
Even the great Chu State will eventually collapse like the previous dynasties, but this does not mean that they will give up their efforts now. Just like people will die sooner or later, do they have to not take medicine when they are sick, or not eat when they are hungry?
With Shen Lang's temperament, it might be a powerful medicine.
Because of this, she had to keep Shen Lang alive and not let him die midway.
Just thought of this.
Mu Qingxue suddenly made a pop, spurting out a mouthful of black blood, staggered, and fell forward to the ground with a pop.
