Chapter 95: Prepare for a rainy day
Back in the room, Yang Hao thought for a moment and called Ren Zhong over.
Three generations of the Yang family had anticipated that this trip to Beijing might be in danger. Yang Hao went to Beijing to receive the seal on behalf of his father, and brought fifty guards with him, both to show his dignity and to cope with the stress of this trip.
unexpected situations that may arise.
With Ren Zhong and these fifty guards, coupled with Yang Hao's own strength, and being in the territory of Dachu, they should have been enough to deal with any accident. However, after the imperial trial in Jinluan Palace today, the Emperor of Chu gave Yang Hao another hundred
Imperial College student, things suddenly became complicated.
If there is an accident and a melee breaks out, it is difficult to guarantee that these students will not be damaged in the chaos.
Now, since the little bald head had discovered that King Yong Xiong Wu had made such a move, Yang Hao had to take precautions and make extra preparations.
After describing the bronze medal image transformed by the little bald head to Ren Zhong in as much detail as possible, Yang Hao asked: "Brother Ren, have you heard of this bronze medal?"
Ren Zhong frowned and thought for a moment, his face became very solemn, and he replied: "Master, this bronze medal is most likely a repayment order from the twelfth floor."
"The order of repayment? What is that? What's on the twelfth floor?" Yang Hao said.
Yang Hao really didn't care much about things in the world. However, Yang Hao knew that Ren Zhong, as the head of his bodyguard, had put a lot of effort into this aspect.
"Young Master, the Twelfth Floor is the most mysterious killer organization in the world. According to rumors in the world, the Twelfth Floor was originally created by a royal master from the previous dynasty. The original purpose of its creation was to overthrow the Great Chu and regain the previous dynasty. The Great Chu
At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, many important officials in the court were assassinated, and it is said that it was the Twelfth Floor. Later, after many killings by the Internal Affairs Department and the Inspection Department, the Twelfth Floor gradually became more restrained." Ren Zhongdao.
"The name Twelfth Floor means that this killer organization has twelve building owners?" Yang Hao said.
"Yes, Master. It is said that the Twelfth Floor corresponds to the Twelve Heavenly Stems, headed by Zi Shu. However, no one has ever known the true identities of the various building owners on the Twelfth Floor." Ren Zhong said.
"Zi Shu's cultivation level is the highest?" Yang Hao said.
"Master, I'm not sure about this," Ren Zhong said.
"What happened next?" Yang Hao said.
"Master, later on the Twelfth Floor gradually faded out of the world, and the crimes seemed to be less and less. However, according to legend, some of the major unsolved cases in the Jianghu were probably also committed by the Twelfth Floor." Ren Zhongdao.
"What unsolved cases?" Yang Hao said.
"Young Master, I know of the two recent unsolved cases. One is the case of Thirteen Thieves in Taihu who killed a village fifteen years ago, and the other is the case of Three Thieves who killed a family in Mangshan four years ago." Ren Zhongdao.
Yang Hao had heard of these two things.
"These two groups of people are heinous people. So, the Twelfth Floor has begun to do justice for heaven?" Yang Hao said.
"Master, it is not clear whether the Twelfth Floor has changed its gender. However, these two major cases are probably their fault. The Thirteen Thieves of Taihu Xiao Xiao have been gathering in Taihu Lake for more than ten years and have committed countless crimes. Even the navy has not
Method. The three murderers of Mangshan gathered hundreds of murderers and marched across Mangshan. The officers and soldiers went to suppress them several times, but each time they returned with lost troops. Those who can silently kill these two groups of bandits must be good at assassination.
A group of masters." Ren Zhong said.
Yang Hao pondered for a moment, then asked: "Where is this order to repay gratitude?"
"Master, it is said that the Twelfth Floor once issued a repayment order. Why it was issued is unknown. However, there are rumors that whoever gets the repayment order will use it to pay for the murder of the Twelfth Floor, no matter who wants to kill.
Whoever the person is, the Twelfth Floor will use all their strength to assassinate him." Ren Zhong said.
"Whoever it is?" Yang Hao frowned.
"Master, if the Order of Repayment does exist, this rumor is very likely to be true. Although the killer lives his life with his head in his hands every day, he values his word more than many other people in the world," Ren Zhong said.
Yang Hao nodded in agreement, but he became increasingly wary.
King Yong's attack was cruel enough.
A dignified prince risked the disapproval of the world and hired assassins to carry out assassinations in the territory of Dachu. He even used such things as repayment orders. This is the rhythm of King Yong who will not give up until he is killed.
ah!
If Ren Zhong said it was true, and the Twelfth Floor launched an assassination with all their strength, how to save those students in the chaos would really be a headache.
Seeing that Yang Hao was silent, Ren Zhong asked in a very serious tone: "Master, you suddenly asked about the order of repaying gratitude. Have you received any news?"
"Brother Ren, I received news that someone sent out a repayment order and wanted to assassinate me." Yang Hao said.
Since Ren Zhong is responsible for guarding, Yang Hao naturally has no need to hide this matter from him. However, Yang Hao did not explain where the news came from.
"Which thief is so bold?" Ren Zhong said angrily.
Ren Zhong was also at the Jinluan Palace today, so he naturally knew that he would be returning with a hundred Imperial College students. As the head of the bodyguard, he had an extra hundred unskilled scholars accompanying him, which was already enough.
Ren Zhong was scratching his head. In the Jinluan Palace, the emperor said in front of all the courtiers that if one of the hundred students was missing, only Yang Hao would be the one to ask questions.
Now, someone from the twelfth floor actually appears and wants to assassinate his young master. How can he not be shocked and angry if he has such a heavy responsibility?
"Who is the chief envoy is not important for the time being. What is important is that since the Twelfth Floor is going to go all out, we have to make some preparations in advance." Yang Hao thought for a moment and then said: "Brother Ren, what is going on in the world, Uncle Hong Lu Ziguang
.Send a message to Uncle Hong, asking him to find someone to help and inquire about this twelfth floor in detail. Don’t tell grandpa and parents about this yet."
"Okay, Master! I understand." Ren Zhong responded, and then said: "Master, if we take a hundred scholars with us, if we really face a killer organization like the Twelfth Floor, if we want to protect everyone, we will need more manpower.
It may not be enough. Should we ask the Ministry of War to write a document and ask the government officials along the way to send officers and soldiers to help escort it?"
"No need." Yang Hao pondered for a moment and said: "Since the Twelfth Floor is a killer, he must be very secretive in his actions. No matter how many officers and soldiers there are, it may not be effective. Moreover, if there are too many people, it may not be effective.
Good thing." Yang Hao said.
Ren Zhong heard this, thought for a moment, and nodded.
There are some things that my young master did not say clearly. That is, judging from the scene in the court today, if the government really sends officers and soldiers to escort along the way, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be anyone with ulterior motives among these officers and soldiers.
Or someone with good intentions would not take the opportunity to sneak into the officers and soldiers and cause trouble.
"However, after entering the Ningyuan boundary, we can have our Ningyuan soldiers come to escort us. At least we can escort the students from the Imperial College separately." Yang Hao added.
Hearing this, Ren Zhong nodded again, but his heart didn't feel much lighter.
It is more than two thousand miles from the capital to Ningyuan. In other words, it takes more than a thousand miles to enter the Ningyuan boundary. This more than a thousand miles is not so easy to walk now.
"Master, do you want to split into two groups..." Ren Zhong stopped mid-sentence.
Yang Hao naturally understood the meaning of he was reluctant to speak but hesitated.
Separating yourself from the students seems to be a better way to ensure the safety of the students. However, such a division of troops means that there are fewer people to protect you. This cannot be said. This risk cannot be said.
Will risk.
"Brother Ren, we can't separate. We only know that the Twelfth Floor is going to assassinate me. We don't know if anyone else will assassinate me, or even create trouble for us by assassinating students. If we separate, we can't guarantee the students.
Our safety." Yang Hao said.
Ren Zhong's eyes flashed with anger and murderous intent, and he said: "If we are really assassinated, after the incident, we Ningyuan will have to kill all these thieves even if we chase them thousands of miles away!"
"We can't get involved in suppressing bandits and thieves in Dachu and beyond Ningyuan," Yang Hao said with a smile.
After that, Yang Hao comforted him: "If the soldiers come to block it, if the water comes to cover it, Brother Ren doesn't have to worry too much. With Brother Ren and fifty brothers here, not to mention a mere killer organization, but a large army of soldiers and horses charging head-on, I think."
If they want to capture our Ningyuan elite, they must first weigh their own weight."
After hearing Yang Hao's words, Ren Zhong's face first flashed with the unique pride of a soldier, and then showed hesitation.
"Brother Ren, do you have something to say?" Yang Hao said.
"Master, there is something I have always wanted to ask you, but I don't know whether I should ask you." Ren Zhong said.
"Brother Ren wants to know if I have the ability to protect myself?" Yang Hao said with a smile.
"Yes, young master. I know that since the young master has never shown his skills in front of others, there must be a reason. Since the young master is unwilling to talk about it, I shouldn't ask about it. However, this assassination on the twelfth floor is no small matter. If
If I know whether the young master is able to protect himself, I can make more comprehensive arrangements. "Zhong Rendao.
This matter has indeed always been the biggest question in Ren Zhong's mind.
Based on Yang Hao's advice to him, Ren Zhong thought that the young master was an extraordinary person in martial arts. However, the way Yang Hao appeared in front of others did not look like a master.
"Brother Ren, it's not that I intentionally concealed this matter, it's just that there's no need to publicize it." Yang Hao said with a smile.
"Master, your cultivation..." Ren Zhong said in surprise and joy.
"There is no danger of self-protection. If there is an accident, Brother Ren can focus his defense on Xiu'er and the students." Yang Hao smiled again.
"Yes, young master!" Ren Zhong's expression obviously improved a lot.
Naturally, my young master said this. With Ren Zhong’s understanding of Yang Hao, it would definitely not be as simple as just protecting himself. However, since my young master has been hiding his cultivation, if he is really being assassinated, how can he not let him go?
If your young master shows his cultivation, then it is best not to let your young master show his cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, Ren Zhong already had a calculation in his mind.
"Master, if there are no other instructions, I will make arrangements right away." Ren Zhong said energetically.
"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Ren." Yang Hao stood up and stretched his body.
