Chapter 312 Bring a wooden box to visit, it must be filled with sincerity

Chief Zhu said solemnly: "As the saying goes, all land under heaven belongs to the king. Even if what I said did not happen, assassinating the king is a capital crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the clan.

We can only kill dozens of people at most, but at least hundreds of people in our own family will die.

I believe you all know what is more important, so there is no need for me to say more! "

As soon as he finished speaking, the assassin with a scar on the corner of his eye looked around with a fierce gaze.

“I believe you have all seen before that in order to raise funds for disaster relief, Yingtian Prefecture is implementing a policy of exchanging silver for salt.

Since ancient times, smuggling salt has been a serious crime. Now we have the opportunity to obtain salt, which is a fortune bestowed upon us by God.

In my heart, whether it is the alliance of Jiangnan families or the royal nobles of the Ming Dynasty.

We are all Chinese people, and we will serve those who treat us sincerely. "

Another Su family assassin with a crooked mouth suddenly frowned.

“I have been a servant of the Su family since I was a teenager.

I still don’t know where my family is.

I will not stop the leader from doing what he wants to do.

I just hope that after this is done, the leader can let me leave here."

Chief Zhu, the leader of the death squad, turned and looked at the others.

“As the saying goes, everyone has their own aspirations. If there are other brothers who share the same idea as this Su family warrior, I will never force them.

However, before it is done, in order to prevent unnecessary trouble.

Those who choose to stand aside and watch can only bear the grievance for the time being. "

The assassin with a scar on the corner of his eye immediately took out the rope he carried with him and tied up the assassin from the Su family with a crooked mouth in public.

To be on the safe side, Chief Zhu took out a piece of cloth and strangled the mouth of the crooked-mouthed Su family assassin.

"Now everyone is listening to Zhu's command, let's capture the leader first.

As long as we capture Zhao Hu, the henchman of the evil monk, our plan will be halfway to success."

As the time drew closer to the wedding celebration, the atmosphere in Prince Jin's Mansion gradually became tense.

Zhu Gang said to Xu Miaoyun, who was dressed as a guard, "At one o'clock in the afternoon, we will go to the palace to welcome the bride.

You must follow my mount closely on the road and never slack off!"

Considering that Xu Da was very henpecked, and in order to avoid angering the "tiger mother" Xie, Zhu Gang decided to set the end point of the wedding procession at the imperial palace.

For the assassination missions sent out by the Jiangnan Aristocratic Family Alliance, the only route they could take was from the Imperial Palace back to Prince Jin's Mansion.

This invisibly reduces the areas that need to be guarded. After all, in order to ensure the success rate of completing the mission, the assassin will definitely not choose to act on the road that is close to the palace.

However, even so, Zhu Gang still showed due concern for Xu Miaoyun's safety.

Xu Miaoyun, who already admired Zhu Gang, said with a slightly moved tone: "Since His Highness has made proper arrangements, Miaoyun only needs to act according to the plan to ensure safety.

The most important thing right now is..."

Before Xu Miaoyun could finish her words, Zhang Long, commander of the Hidden Dragon Guard, walked in from outside and reported a very important situation.

"Your Highness, a third-class guard from Longxiang Pavilion is here to see you, along with a man in black holding a wooden box."

Zhu Gang closed his eyes slightly, he keenly sensed something unusual.

"Have you verified the credentials and seal of that third-class guard?"

Zhang Long nodded and said, "According to the organizational structure of Longxiang Pavilion, a third-class guard is equivalent to a fifth-rank official.

I have checked the credentials and seal and can confirm the identity.

According to the third-class guard, the man in black holding the wooden box was the leader of the assassination team sent by the Jiangnan Aristocratic Family Alliance to carry out the assassination mission. "Zhu Gang was immediately interested when he heard Zhang Long say this.

"After confirming that they are unarmed, you will take them to the study and wait for me."

After about a cup of tea, Zhu Gang brought Xu Miaoyun to the study in the palace.

"I am Zhou Haomiao, the third-class guard of Longxiang Pavilion, and I greet His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin."

"I, Zhu Jiantong from Shanyin County, pay my respects to His Majesty the Prince of Jin."

Looking at the willow box in Zhu Jiantong's hand, Zhu Gang, a veteran of many battles, suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood.

“I wish that the brave man can choose to abandon darkness and join light. I am very pleased about this.

Now that you have come to visit me with a wooden box, I am sure it must be filled with sincerity. Why don’t you open it and let me see it?”

However, when Zhu Jiantong opened the willow wood box on the table, Xu Miaoyun, who was dressed as a guard, suddenly turned pale.

Zhang Long, who was standing not far away, drew out the long sword from his waist, as if he was ready to fight to the death with Zhu Jiantong.

"Commander Zhang, put away your sword.

It is really inappropriate to brandish swords and knives in front of the palace guards.

Since this is your first offense, I will only give you a warning this time.

If you still don't repent next time, I will not let you off easily!"

Zhu Jiantong thought he was about to become extremely wealthy, but the current situation made him feel a little creepy.

The words and actions of Zhang Long and Xu Miaoyun just now made Zhu Jiantong suddenly feel that a disaster was about to happen.

In fact, in Zhu Gang's eyes, there are no inherently good or bad people in this world.

In his opinion, a person's development is constantly changing under the influence of the system.

This is just like the court ministers. Why do wiser emperors have fewer treacherous ministers?
Because the ministers knew what kind of officials the emperor needed, they just concentrated on playing their roles according to the emperor's personal preferences.

However, Zhu Gang's future fate will depend on whether Zhu Jiantong's performance can satisfy him.

“I didn’t know that Lord Zhao was His Highness’s confidant, and I made a big mistake without paying attention.

Please give me a chance to redeem myself and make meritorious contributions. I will definitely not let you down!"

Zhu Gang looked at Zhu Jiantong who was kneeling on the ground trembling with fear, and his eyes gradually became profound.

"Deputy Commander Zhao was ordered to lurk inside the Jiangnan Aristocratic Family Alliance and assist the Jinyiwei in gathering intelligence.

Because his identity was leaked, he was eventually killed by an assassin sent by the Jiangnan Aristocratic Family Alliance to carry out the mission.

Before his death, Deputy Commander Zhao told you all the hiding places of the assassins.

Zhu Jiantong, do you think what I just said is true?"

Zhu Jiantong, who thought he was about to meet with a disaster, did not even bother to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

He said respectfully, "I remember every word that Deputy Commander Zhao told me.

The assassins' hiding places are mainly distributed in four places.

The imperial court only needs to eliminate the strongest group of assassins and then recruit the weakest group of assassins.

The assassins who are farthest from the assassination location are no longer a concern."

Zhu Gang's eyes were grim, "Since you already have an action plan, then go and put it into action.

I will let the Ming Dynasty's most elite breakthrough troops cooperate with you. I hope you won't let me down.

In addition, I hope to see a true assassin. You must not kill innocent people for the sake of merit, otherwise I will have no choice but to execute Ma Su with tears in my eyes!"
