The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 510 Dagger Now
A conflict ended abruptly with Chen Xiao's face, making people dumbfounded.

The poem will go on normally, but everyone can no longer talk and laugh like before. Once the atmosphere is destroyed, it is difficult to restore it.

"Brother Bohu, when will Mr. Xiaoge show up?"

Feng Yilun looked at Tang Bohu with resentment, he came here because of Xiaoge Lao.

Now Xiaoge Lao didn't show up for a long time, and he was beaten up by that thief Chen Xiao. If Chen Xiao didn't throw a dog in the mud in the end, Feng Yilun's face would be completely lost.

"Uh, right away, Mr. Xiaoge will be here soon."

Tang Bohu felt very helpless.

What can he do when he encounters such a hob meat?
Mr. Xiaoge, please be kind and show up soon.

Perhaps Tang Bohu's piety played a role, Xie Shen came from the backyard Shi Shiran, surrounded by all his followers.

Everyone turned their heads to look, Xiaoge Lao's calm and breezy appearance was not at all like a big boss who was wandering around the court, but like an expert outside the world.

"Lansheng pays homage to Mr. Xiaoge!"

Everyone sang to Xie Shen together, as if listening to the training respectfully.

In fact, if you simply look at age, Xie Shen is not much older than them, at most he is a few years older, and the word "late birth" is a bit heavy.

But in terms of status, these scholars can only call themselves late students in front of Xie Shen.

"Everyone have fun, Xie is just here to join in the fun."

Xie Shen smiled lightly, but it made everyone admire him.

Look at the aura of Mr. Xiaoge, he is worthy of being a senior official at the level of Zaifu. The most important thing is that Mr. Xiaoge is not yet thirty, so it is not easy to be so calm and calm.

"Brother Bohu, which talented scholar will take the top spot in the poetry meeting?"

Xie Shen winked at Tang Bohu, and Tang Yin immediately understood and said: "At the poetry meeting, all talented scholars will show their talents, and Tang can't make a decision at the moment."

Xie Shen smiled and said: "The poetry meeting focuses on making friends through literature, and it doesn't necessarily have to be distinguished."

"Old Xiao Ge's words are wrong!"

Xie Shen turned his head and saw that it was Mr. Feng Yilun who was speaking, so he couldn't help frowning.

He had just heard about Mr. Feng's beating, and he had to keep a low profile after being beaten. How much does Feng Yilun want to steal the limelight?

"Although there are many talented people in Suzhou, there are only a handful of top-notch ones. They always think that they are the best when they disagree with each other. Why don't you take the opportunity of this poetry meeting to compete and see who is the number one talented person in Suzhou?" ?”

I have to say that Feng Yilun's proposal is still very tempting.

That is the number one talented person in Suzhou.

With this name, do you still worry about not being able to get along in the Shilin circle?
Although the imperial examination is the only formal procedure for the imperial court to select scholars, the imperial examination is not all based on the article, but also on the character and reputation of the scholar.

A test paper of a great talent is put together with a test paper of a mediocre candidate, even if the articles themselves are similar, the rankings will be very different.

There is no way, the examiners also have to respect the public opinion, if those talents are promoted to the sky, if they fail to pass the entrance examination in the end, I don't know how many senior officials in the officialdom will be slapped in the face.

For example, Xie Shen held a poetry meeting at the Canglang Pavilion. Whoever wins will definitely gain a hidden advantage in the imperial examination.

The leader of the poetry circle handpicked by Mr. Xiao Ge, who dares to let him fail, isn't this a slap in the face of Mr. Xiao Ge!

Therefore, the first place in this poetry meeting is what all scholars who come to participate want to fight for.

"It's better for Xiao Ge to come up with the last question, and everyone will improvise a poem based on it. Then Xiao Ge will judge who has done well. This is fair to everyone."

This Feng Yilun really does not think it is a big deal to watch the excitement.
Xie Shen coughed and said, "What do you guys think?"

"What Mr. Feng said is very true, Mr. Xiaoge, you can come up with a question."

"That's right, Mr. Xiao Ge, you can come up with the questions, we are all ready!"

Everyone was aroused by Feng Yilun's desire, and they all agreed.

Although this link is not in Xie Shen's plan, but right now it can only be counted.

"Okay, then Xie will ask a question."

Xie Shen pondered for a moment, then said in a harmonious voice, "Let's take Gusu City as the topic."

This is an extremely common topic, and all the talented scholars began to think about it.

They were deeply influenced by stereotyped writing, and they even followed the rules when composing poems.

The advantage of this is the squareness of the poem, but the disadvantage is that it has no aura, and it feels very stiff to read.

Xie Shen's mind was not on the poetry meeting, if according to his prediction, shouldn't the assassin Luluo appear?
Among the hustle and bustle, a young man surnamed Wu took the lead in writing a poem.Immediately afterwards, the son surnamed Cui also composed a poem.

Xie Shen squinted his eyes and scanned the group of scholars.

At this moment, a silver needle shot straight at his neck.

Seeing this, Tang Bohu didn't bother to call for help, and slammed his head into Xie Shen's chest. The silver needle will pass by Xie Shen's face and shoot on a servant's neck.

The servant was stunned for a moment, then collapsed to the ground, convulsing in pain.

Xie Shen was knocked down by Tang Bohu, panting heavily: "There is an assassin, catch the assassin!"

This silver needle was obviously blown out of a bamboo tube, it was unexpected that the assassin would use such a vicious hidden weapon.

The scene became chaotic for a while, and the scholars heard that assassins had been mixed into the poetry meeting, and everyone was in danger.

They looked left and right, trying to distinguish who the assassin was from the left and right.

This man is too fucking daring, he dares to assassinate even the current cabinet scholar, is he dead?

Hundreds of guards in Jinyi rushed out from the backyard, they surrounded the garden, there was no way for the assassin to escape, all he had to do now was to catch the turtle in the urn.

Xie Shen stood up with Tang Bohu's support, and said in a deep voice, "You don't have to hide anymore, in fact, I knew from the very beginning that you would come to this poetry meeting."

His eyes swept over a group of scholars, and finally settled on a young man in plain clothes.

This person is obviously Luluo.

Even if she dresses herself up like a down-and-out scholar, even if she puts on a fake beard, Xie Shen can still tell at a glance.

"Dog officer, die!"

Luluo was discovered by Xie Shen but she didn't intend to catch her without a fight. She dropped the blowpipe in her hand, pulled out a dagger from her sleeve, and leaped towards Xie Shen with a fish on her feet.

This blow to Luluo threw her body out, and she wanted to fight to the death.

"Bitch, you dare to assassinate your lord!"

Pei Qianhu was furious, jumped out from the group of guards in brocade clothes, and stood in front of Xie Shen.

Pei Qianhu drew out his saber and slashed at Luluo, but Luluo didn't dodge but stabbed down fiercely with the dagger in his hand.

At this time, Luluo was on top and Pei Qianhu was on the bottom. If the two sides did not dodge anything, the result would be that Pei Qianhu was pierced in the cheek by a dagger, and Luluo was split into two pieces by the saber.

Hiss, what a ruthless woman!

Pei Qianhu had to adjust his position a little, and used his saber to block Luluo's life-threatening stab!
The horizontal knife and the dagger collided and made a crisp sound.

Just when Pei Qianhu thought that Lu Luo's decisive blow had been dispelled, she took advantage of the momentum and rolled forward, passing Pei Qianhu's line of defense with a beautiful front somersault.

not good!

Pei Qianhu immediately realized that Luluo's thorn was actually just a cover-up, and her real purpose was to be cautious!

It's a pity that it's too late now, Luluo is taking advantage of the momentum to turn forward, Pei Qianhu can't catch up with her speed no matter what!

He could only watch helplessly as Lu Luo stabbed at Xie Shen, how would Xie Shen avoid this blow?
There was a smile on the corner of Luluo's mouth.

Finally, she was finally able to avenge King Ning.Although the dog emperor can't be killed, killing the dog official can be regarded as fulfilling the mission.

Her dagger had already been poisoned, as long as it pierced Xie Shen's flesh, the venom would flow into the heart along the blood, guaranteeing Xie Shen's death.

Even if Hua Tuo is alive, it is impossible to get rid of this poison.

But she also saw a weird smile on the corner of Xie Shen's mouth
Why is he smiling?
Luluo was very puzzled, and at this moment Xie Shen pulled out a hand crossbow from behind.

He lightly pulled the trigger, and the crossbow shot out through the air, piercing through Lu Luo's heart.

Luluo fell straight to the ground like a wild goose with a broken wing.

For, why?
How could he carry a hand crossbow with him?Did he already know that he would come back and kill him?
"You must be very puzzled, why do I bring my crossbow with me, and it's still on such an elegant occasion as a poetry meeting."

Xie Shen walked up to Lu Luo, and looked at the assassin who was about to die with pity.

"It's actually very simple, because this poem will be what I use to lure you into the bait."

Lu Luo stared at Xie Shen in disbelief, feeling extremely sad and angry.

How is this possible?How could he have counted everything into the plan?

"You escaped with great difficulty. From the perspective of normal logic, it is indeed impossible to come back."

Xie Shen paused for a moment, shook his head and said, "However, there are some things that cannot be considered logically. As a dead soldier supported by King Ning, I'm afraid you have already looked down upon your own life? If you were given a chance, If you can kill me with your own hands, I believe you will come here without hesitation. Of course, you are not stupid, and you don’t know how to fall into ordinary traps, so you should set up the situation more naturally. The poetry meeting is naturally the best choice .”

A trace of pity flashed in Xie Shen's eyes and said: "If you are a little more rational, you can still see the clues. But you have been blinded by hatred, and it is impossible to analyze the situation rationally. As for this crossbow, I have been carrying it with me all the time. Surround yourself with defense. Oh, that night was an exception."

Blood kept oozing from Luluo's chest, she was trembling all over, and her face was already pale.

She was not reconciled, not reconciled to die like this.

"Actually, I was wondering who sent you here at first. But your Nanchang accent betrayed you."

Xie Shen spread his hands and solved the last mystery: "At this special time point, an assassin from Nanchang was designed to assassinate the emperor and this official, except for the remaining party of King Ning, this official can't think of any other possibility. "

After hearing all the explanations, the brilliance in Luluo's eyes gradually faded, and finally the pupils dilated, declaring that she was completely dead.

"It's a pity. Actually, I didn't want to shoot you directly, but you are too aggressive. If I don't strike, I will die."

Xie Shen winked at Pei Qianhu, who immediately ordered a few Jinyi guards to drag the body down with guilt.

The scholars in the garden stood there dumbfounded, completely unaware of how such an extremely skilled assassin could be mixed into the poetry club.

And Mr. Xiao Ge seemed to be in control of everything, step by step luring the assassin into the bait.

In the end, when Mr. Xiaoge took out his crossbow and shot the assassin, almost all the scholars were dumbfounded.

From this point of view, this poem is completely designed to lure assassins, so what's the point of this leader?
After this incident, when mentioning the Canglang Pavilion Poetry Club, people will only remember Xiaoge's wise arrest of the assassin. Who else will remember who the leader of the Poetry Club is?

"What happened today has surprised you all."

Xie Shen glanced at the scholars, and said with a smile: "If there is a chance in the future, I will set up another gathering, and then I will only talk about Fengyue poetry."

All the scholars don't believe the old man Xiaoge's words. His thoughts are unpredictable. If there is another gathering, I'm afraid something big will happen again, right?

Let's not mention these for now, but said that Xie Shen reported the news of the assassin's death to Emperor Zhengde, and the Emperor was overjoyed.

On King Ning's matter, his attitude is very firm, that is, to kill the grass and roots, and kill all King Ning's lineage, even those dead soldiers with him.

But I didn't expect that all the secrets were sparse, and some fish slipped through the net.

The assassin still held back and sneaked all the way from Nanchang to Suzhou, pretending to be a prostitute to assassinate.

That is to say, Zhu Houzhao did not choose Luluo when choosing a girl.Otherwise, if this woman is really allowed to be alone in the room with him, God knows whether he will be stabbed to death by this woman.

"Sir, you really made a great contribution this time. This assassin is executed, and a stone in my heart has fallen to the ground."

Although Zhu Houzhao is absurd and dissolute, he is still a feudal king in the final analysis, and he is most concerned about the stability of his own country.

Therefore, as soon as King Ning rebelled, he mobilized the most elite troops to suppress the rebellion, in order not to give King Ning any chance to rise up.

"Your Majesty's absurd praise. All these are what I should do. Besides, this assassin also wants to assassinate me. If I don't get rid of her, I will have trouble sleeping and eating."

Xie Shen said helplessly, this assassin is a big threat to him and Emperor Zhengde, if she can't get rid of her as soon as possible, Xie Shen really can't sleep well.

In my heart, I feel that the warriors of the Ming Dynasty were still very professional. Once they were favored by the Lord, they would follow them to the death.

That assassin was probably bought by King Ning Luelue for his loyalty, so he did not hesitate to work for King Ning.

"Haha, that's right. The assassin will also assassinate Mister."

When Zhu Houzhao thought of this, he immediately laughed out loud.

He patted Xie Shen on the shoulder and said: "From this point of view, the mister is trying so hard to protect himself, so can I save a reward?"

"His Majesty."

Xie Shen looked at Zhu Houzhao with a black line on his face, and thought to himself, Your Majesty, can't you be a little bit upright?
"I'm just kidding you, look at scaring Mr.

Zhu Houzhao shrugged his shoulders and said, "However, after such a disturbance, my good interest has almost been defeated. It's really boring. What else do you think is interesting in Suzhou?"
