Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 15 Viper
Chang'an, Liangyi Hall.

On the night when the Turkic mission arrived in the capital, Wu Zetian hosted a banquet in honor of the mission.

In the evening, the lights are brightly lit, the singing and dancing are peaceful, there is a grand banquet, and there are staggered cups and cups. When the song and dance are over, there is a burst of applause.

Wu Zetian was sitting in the middle of the banquet, smiling when she saw this.

Shibi Khan in a white robe stood up suddenly after the song and dance was over, and said to Wu Zetian, "Your Majesty, the song and dance of the Great Zhou Dynasty is really wonderful. Song and dance."

Wu Zetian nodded and said, "Okay, please invite the Turkic Mission to perform a dance."

Soon, two Turkic people in yellow clothes began to perform a Turkic dance.

After the dance performance was over, Shibi waved his hand, and his attendant handed over a wooden box.

Shibi went on to say: "Your Majesty, the small gifts prepared by the last emissary have been handed over to the Ministry of Rites for acceptance, but only this rare treasure has been repeatedly ordered by Ji Li Khan to be handed over to His Majesty before leaving."

Wu Zetian heard the words and said: "Submit it."

Then a servant stepped forward to take the wooden box, and when he got to Wu Zetian's side, he opened the wooden box.

I saw a colorful ball of light in the wooden box, and the ball of light emitted colorful rays of light in the hall, and all the officials admired it.

Wu Zetian praised: "It really is a rare treasure."

Shibi Khan said again at this time: "This is my Turkic sacred treasure, which can emit colorful lights in the dark night. It is extremely strange. This is the sincere intention of Jili Khan. Please accept it with a smile."

Wu Zetian nodded, and the female officer beside him hurriedly accepted it.

Wu Zetian said: "Khan's sincerity moved the heavens and the earth, and I was very moved. Your envoy, in order to show my intention of repairing Dazhou, I have decreed that Princess Yiyang, the daughter of Prince Li Yong of Changle, should be married to Jili Khan. , and then add thirty beauties, ten chariots of jewelry, and five hundred horses in the inner garden."

After hearing this, Shibi Khan and his followers said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Immediately afterwards, Shibi knelt down with all the officials and shouted: "Long live! Long live! Long live!"

……

Outside Chang'an City, somewhere earthen kiln.

Standing outside the kiln were two guards wearing flying bear suits, red jackets, and golden boots with tiger heads.

The kiln is brightly lit and surrounded by various instruments of torture.

A thin middle-aged man covered in blood was hung on a wooden frame, and two steel knives passed through his thighs. The middle-aged man howled sharply, and suddenly fell silent.

A guard who was also wearing a flying bear suit, a red jacket, and golden boots with a tiger's head on his feet stood in front of the middle-aged man who was being executed, and said to a man who looked like an officer sitting behind the desk: "General, the prisoner Halo punishment."

The general sneered when he heard the words: "Stunning punishment. Okay, add two more knives and nail his feet!"

As soon as the words fell, the middle-aged man who pretended to faint immediately raised his head.

Seeing this, the general shouted sharply, "I'll ask again, where is that list?"

The middle-aged man said hoarsely: "General, I really don't know."

The general sneered when he heard the words: "It's been half a year, and even I'm tired of using these instruments of torture, yet you can still say such a thing! Don't you know? Liu Jin, let me tell you, the emperor's patience is limited!"

The middle-aged man Liu Jin glanced at the general and said, "General, if I hand over the list, can I still live?"

The general looked at him and sneered.

Then the general grinned and said: "Then spend it, one day, you will feel that death is better."

Liu Jin resisted the severe pain, and forced a smile on his face: "Maybe. At that time, I will hand it over."

"Oh!"

The officer patted the table angrily, snorted, pointed at Liu Jin and said, "Additional punishment!"

The night was as cool as water, and the quiet moonlight shone on the grass outside the kiln. Suddenly, a poisonous snake sprang out from the grass.

"There are snakes!"

As soon as a guard guarding the kiln finished speaking, the poisonous snake jumped up and bit him at the throat.

The other guard was about to pull out the saber from his waist when he felt a lightness in his waist and the saber disappeared. Then he felt a chill in his chest. The guard looked down and saw the tip of the saber protruding from his chest. Immediately afterwards, my eyes went dark, and I didn't know anything.

After the guard fell, a mysterious man wearing a mask and a green robe was revealed.

As soon as the mysterious man in green robe waved his hand, a dozen masked men in black jumped out of the darkness.

The two guards in the kiln were driving Liu Jin and were about to give him an additional sentence, when suddenly there was a loud noise from the window, the windows of the kiln burst open in all directions, and in the flickering cold light, several guards who were executing the execution fell to the ground.

The general was stunned by the scene in front of him. When the general reacted, the guards had been slaughtered by a dozen men in black who suddenly appeared.

The general was shocked, pulled out the saber at his waist, and shouted to the leading masked man in green robe, "Who are you?"

The masked man in green robe said coldly: "Do it."

The general suddenly roared, jumped onto the table next to him, waved the knife in his hand, and slashed towards the blue-robed masked man in the air.

The masked man in green robe raised his sword leisurely, the hand holding the sword shook slightly, the sword turned automatically in his hand, and when the general was coming towards him in the air, the sword in the man's hand stabbed out like lightning.

Before the general could react, he was stabbed in the chest by the sword in the hand of the masked man in green robe.

Immediately afterwards, the masked man in green robe withdrew the sword in his hand, and the general who was still in the air stared wide-eyed, and with a "plop", the general's body fell heavily to the ground.

The man in the green robe mask slowly took out a fine white lake silk handkerchief from his sleeve, and saw a vivid blue snake embroidered on the handkerchief.

The man in the green robe mask leisurely wiped the blood-stained sword clean with a handkerchief, and then the sword returned to its sheath with a "crack", and the lake silk handkerchief embroidered with small snakes was casually thrown on the ground by the man in the green robe mask.

The masked man in green robe turned around slowly, looked at Liu Jin and asked, "Are you Liu Jin?"

Liu Jin stared blankly at what was happening in front of him, and when he heard the question from the man in the green robe mask, he came back to his senses and said, "Exactly. Who are you?"

The man in the green robe mask replied: "Just call me 'Viper'. It was Jin Mulan who asked me to save you."

Liu Jin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "Are you from Jin Mulan?"

Adder said: "That's right, the list is still there, right?"

Liu Jin replied: "The list is on me."

Adder said in an orderly tone, "Hand it over!"

Liu Jin opened his mouth and said, "I won't hand over the list until I see Jin Mulan!"

Adder said, "Of course, you will see her."

After Viper and Liu Jin walked out of the kiln, they ordered their followers to set fire.The flames were raging, and the fire engulfed the kiln in an instant.

……

Longyou Road, official road.

A postman came galloping on a horse, suddenly the horse let out a whine, then the horse's front leg slipped, and the postman fell off the horse.

The postman didn't care about the horse, and hurried away from a small road beside the official road.
