Huang Taiji was reading when a confidant hurriedly broke into the study, knelt down and said urgently: "Master Baylor, something happened!"
"What happened to make you so panicked?"
Huang Taiji put down his book and asked with a frown.
"It's over there at the Zhuzi Temple..."
The confidant quickly told the news from a certain functional god in the temple, "This Li Chenglin actually did such a thing secretly! Now Shuerhaqi has led his people to Baylor's Mansion to get someone! Lord Baylor needs to make a decision as soon as possible.
!”
"Go and call Li Chenglin and Hu Jinshan!"
Huang Taiji said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Lord Baylor!"
The confidant quickly exited.
Soon, Li Chenglin and Hu Jinshan appeared in the study.
Both of them were very worried. When they saw Huang Taiji sitting behind the desk, they quickly knelt down and said, "Master Beile, what happened to the temple was not our fault..."
"I know!"
Huang Taiji waved his hand, interrupted their words, and said, "Where are the stolen goods that you robbed before?"
Li Chenglin quickly said: "It's buried in a private house in the west of the city. We haven't touched it at all."
Huang Taiji nodded and said thoughtfully: "I originally wanted to cause some trouble for Shuerhaqi, but unexpectedly someone took advantage of it. Now this matter is no longer possible. You should leave Shengjing first to avoid the limelight!"
"Master Belle!"
A hint of joy flashed across Li Chenglin's face.
However, Hu Jinshan, who was beside him, took a step forward and said seriously: "If we leave, and Shuerhaqi brings someone to the door, how will Mr. Baylor plan to explain it?"
Huang Taiji was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "I will handle this matter myself."
"Disposal?"
Hu Jinshan sighed and said in a deep voice, "Since the other party dares to come here, I'm afraid they have already obtained some evidence. Mr. Baylor has great ambitions, how can he be hindered by this matter..."
At this moment, a short blade suddenly fell from his sleeve.
!
Hu Jinshan took the handle of the short-edged knife and tightened it tightly.
Then I saw him twisting his body and turning around, waving his arm out, and a white line suddenly appeared in the air, which was the sharp edge of a short blade.
Whoosh!
As the short blade slashed past, Li Chenglin's head suddenly fell from his neck. Even until his death, he still couldn't believe that Hu Jinshan would kill him!
"You...why...kill me..."
Hu Jinshan spoke slowly: "You have impure thoughts and a traitor in the back of your head. If you are captured one day, you will definitely turn against Lord Baylor! You and I, my brother, can't bear to see you sink to that day."
"..."
Li Chenglin's neck spurted blood and he could no longer open his mouth.
Hu Jinshan's hand gently fell on his head, and his head was immediately smashed into pieces. After doing this, Hu Jinshan turned his head to look at Huang Taiji with a sad face.
"He is my brother. I know best who he is."
Hu Jinshan sighed, hugged Li Chenglin's head and knelt on the ground, "Master Baylor, although I think I have received a severe punishment, there is no guarantee that others will have any means to make me unable to control myself."
"And I killed my brother with my own hands, so there must be an explanation."
"Master Baylor took me in and gave my brother a way out. Now it's time to repay him!"
"So I bid farewell to Lord Beile today. I only hope that I will have a spirit after death and see the day when Lord Beile will become the Great Khan, send his troops south, overthrow the Ming Dynasty, and unify the world!"
After that, he actually picked up the short blade again, slashed hard, and cut off his own head.
"Da Ming, I am watching you under the underworld..."
boom!
The headless body fell to the ground.
A human head rolled to the ground and happened to land on Li Chenglin
next to the head.
Two heads, one horrified and one smiling, were quietly displayed in front of Huang Taiji's desk.
"So loyal and brave..."
Huang Taiji sighed. He originally planned to trick the two of them into leaving first, and then secretly deal with them. But at this moment, in front of the other party's display of loyalty and bravery, he actually seemed so despicable.
As if making a promise, he said to the heads of the two of them: "I will support you and your relatives!"
After a while, Huang Taiji gave the order: "Come here and bury the bodies of the two warriors."
"Yes, Lord Baylor!"
The confidants came in with a few men and quickly collected the bodies of Li Chenglin and Hu Jinshan, while the two heads were preserved with lime to prepare for what was to come.
Not long after.
Yang Fan and his men appeared in front of the Baylor Mansion. Seeing their aggressive appearance, the guards at the door hurriedly stepped forward, but were slapped away by Nie Lao Shi and others.
"Your Majesty is driving ahead, so why are you blocking the road?"
A group of people marched straight in.
Soon, Huang Taiji stepped out surrounded by a group of people and greeted him after a long distance: "Uncle came with such a big fanfare, could something have happened?"
"hehe."
Yang Fan smiled lightly and said, "It's not a big deal. I just want to question one of your generals. This person is suspected of arson, robbery of nobles, and looting of holy temples!"
"Oh, this happened! I wonder who this person is?"
Huang Taiji pretended to be shocked and asked quickly.
Yang Fan said: "Li Chenglin."
Upon hearing this name, Huang Taiji's face changed slightly, and then he smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid my uncle is a little late!"
"Um?"
Yang Fan raised his eyebrows, but his eyes fell on the box held by the two servants behind Huang Taiji, and his heart
Li immediately realized something.
Sure enough, Huang Taiji was heard saying: "Earlier today, Li Chenglin and Hu Jinshan were found dead after fighting each other in the room."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and two boxes were brought forward.
The wooden box lid opened, revealing the heads of Li Chenglin and Hu Jinshan!
"All dead?"
Yang Fan looked indifferent, "This is such a coincidence!"
Huang Taiji sighed and said with a wry smile: "Now that I think about it, these two people were probably the perpetrators! They noticed in advance that something was not going well, and for some reason they had internal strife, so they fought each other and died together."
After a pause, he sighed again, "It's a pity that Ben Beile didn't know people well enough to trust two people so much before! Even though they are dead, I can't stay out of it. I must try my best to compensate for all losses."
Yang Fan took a deep look at Huang Taiji and said lightly: "It's too early to talk about this now. Let's recover the looted and hidden property first and then talk about it!"
Soon, Yang Fan led his team to leave, taking away the heads of Li Chenglin and Hu Jinshan.
During the process, he had already secretly inspected two heads.
I thought they were killed by Huang Taiji himself or by his subordinates, but I never expected to see from the few remaining traces of fate on their heads that both of them died at the hands of Hu Jinshan.
"What a great Hu Jinshan."
Yang Fan immediately realized that this man killed Li Chenglin first and then beheaded himself to death. Even he couldn't help but be moved by such a self-sacrifice.
Unfortunately, it was not the Ming Dynasty that was loyal.
Yang Fan didn't know what Hu Jinshan's mentality was for making such a choice, but if he committed himself to being a thief, the more prominent he was, the more he deserved to die!
"That hero is my enemy!"
"If you are not dead, I will kill you with my own hands!"
Yang Fan looked at the head coldly, feeling that the smile was so dazzling!
