Chapter 1368: Sword Execution Order

Qi Ning was stunned and said strangely: "I gave it to you by the late emperor?"

Xiang Tianbei did not explain immediately. He pondered for a while before asking: "Little Master, what do you think Chi Fengdian?"

Qi Ning frowned and said, "The leader of the Yulin Camp? This person is quite sleek, but he is quick and neat in his work."

Qi Ning was valued by the emperor before, even Chi Fengdian dared not be at all in front of Qi Ning, and seemed respectful and polite. However, when this man led the 300 Yulin to surround him and killed him, he was so vicious that he wanted to kill him and then hurry up.

"I know Chi Fengdian took Yulin Camp and went to surround you and killed you. In your opinion, does Chi Fengdian know the inside story in the palace?" Xiang Tian's sad eyes were chilling: "It would be fine if he didn't know, it was just doing his own thing, but if this person knew that there was a change in the palace, he was still ordered to kill you, so what would you think?"

Qi Ning thought for a while before saying, "Mr. Xiang, Chi Fengdian knew that the emperor was treating me with great kindness, and also knew that it was the time when my army headed north. At this time, the emperor would never be able to issue such a ridiculous decree. He could not have no doubt about the situation in the palace."

"Yes." Xiang Tian said sadly: "This person knew that there was a change in the palace, but he was still merciless to the young master. If I was not wrong, this person might have surrendered to Xiao Shaozong's feet."

Qi Ning glanced at the silver sword in his hand and frowned and said, "Mr. Xiang, what is the relationship between Chi Fengdian and this silver sword?"

"Young Master, don't be anxious." Xiang Tian looked so sad and said seriously: "Is this silver sword useful? You must first find out whether Chi Fengdian has a rebellious intention." At this moment, he heard a knock on the door outside. Qi Ning was about to get up when he heard Tang Nuo say outside: "Don't let him talk too much. His health has just improved slightly. If he has too much effort, his old injury will recur."

Qi Ning immediately said, "Yes." Seeing Xiang Tian's forehead, a trace of sweat was indeed oozing out of his wretched face, but the two of them were talking about the important points, but they didn't pay attention and said softly: "Mr. Xiang, you rest first, I...!"

Xiang Tiandi shook his head and said, "Time is tight, so you can't delay. Don't worry about me. Miss Tang's kindness, I can't die." Without waiting for Qi Ning to speak, he continued, "Chi Fengdian was the kindness of the Dan Tai family, and the Dan Tai family was the kindness of today because Emperor Taizu had the wisdom of knowing people." At this point, he did not continue to talk, but locked his eyebrows. After thinking for a long time, he finally said, "The late emperor once told me that Chi Fengdian had generals and talents. If he was loyal, he would be more than enough to command the Yulin Camp."

Qi Ning said: "The late emperor must have trusted Chi Fengdian very much, otherwise it would be impossible for him to hand over the guards of the imperial city into his hands."

"Rumor to the court and the country, Emperor Taizong once promised Emperor Taizu that he would pass the throne to the King of Huainan." Xiang Tian stared at Qi Ning's eyes with grief: "For this reason, the old Marquis of Dantai even wrote a memorial to Emperor Taizong, so many people think that the Dantai family has always been the sphere of influence of the King of Huainan."

Qi Ning asked back: "Mr. Xiang thinks these are true?"

"Of course it's a rumor in the market." Xiang Tian said lightly: "But many people believe it deeply, and some ill-hearted people even hope that the King of Huainan can really ascend to the throne. Sometimes when rumors spread too much, people will believe it. Naturally, the late emperor will not doubt the loyalty of the old Marquis of Dan Tai. But is the soldiers under the old Marquis of Dan Tai as loyal to the court as loyal as the old Marquis of Dan Tai?"

Qi Ning knew that the Dan Tai family had been squeezed when Emperor Taizong was Emperor Taizong, and the Jinyi Qi family and the Wuxiang Su family took advantage of the situation to rise. Because of this, many generals of the Dan Tai family were naturally dissatisfied. Some of them hoped that Emperor Taizu's direct descendants would return to the throne, which was not uncommon.

But Qi Ning understood what Xiang Tian said at this moment and whispered: "Mr. Xiang said that the late emperor did not trust Chi Fengdian?"

"Chi Fengdian is from the Dan Tai family, and the late emperor is the wise saint lord. He called Chi Fengdian in the Yulin Camp, and his original intention was because of the Dan Tai family." Xiang Tian said slowly, "At least in this way, the soldiers of the Dan Tai and his group will be comforted."

Qi Ning suddenly understood and thought that the late emperor was quite bold, but the position of the commander of the Yulin Camp was really extraordinary. As the emperor, he naturally had to hand over this important position to the trusted general who was extremely trusted. Since the late emperor did not fully trust Chi Fengdian, he could still hand over the position to him. Could he not worry that one day Chi Fengdian would become a hidden danger?

Xiang Tianwu seemed to have seen Qi Ning's question, and smiled faintly, "How wise and wise the late emperor is. How can he not beware of this person when he handed such an important position to Chi Fengdian?" He raised his hand and pointed to the silver sword in Qi Ning's hand and said, "This is the late emperor called the Sword-Slaying Order!"

"Sword Punishment Order?"

"Punishment naturally means killing." Xiang Tian looked cold and sad: "If you rebel, you can kill with this sword order, and this order is only targeted at one person."

"You are talking about... Chi Fengdian?" Qi Ning's body was shocked.

Xiang Tian nodded and said, "That's right. I have always been guarding the late emperor, thanking the late emperor's kindness and trust. The late emperor handed over this sword order to me back then, and knew that I could protect this order under any circumstances. The late emperor had an order. If Chi Fengdian was loyal, this order could be regarded as non-existent. However, once Chi Fengdian had a rebellious act, he could be killed with this sword order."

Qi Ning was a little surprised, and was silent for a moment before asking: "Mr. Xiang, can this sword order mobilize troops?"

Xiang Tianbei shook his head, and Qi Ning asked again: "Will the civil and military officials in the court see this order as if they see the order of the late emperor?"

Xiangtian was sad or shook his head.

Qi Ning sighed: "This sword order cannot be mobilized by one soldier, and cannot issue orders to all the civil and military officials of the court. How can we use this order to kill Chi Fengdian? Chi Fengdian has thousands of Yulin Guards under his command, and his martial arts are not weak. Now he is in the imperial city, just a sword order...!"

"The Sword Zhu Jian Ling cannot mobilize the troops, nor can it mobilize the civil and military ministers, but it can mobilize the sharp blades hanging above Chi Fengdian's head." Xiang Tian said slowly, "Two sharp blades were hung above Chi Fengdian's head, but Chi Fengdian didn't know it. Until the Sword Pill comes out, the sharp blades will mercilessly cut off Chi Fengdian's head."

Qi Ning understood something vaguely, and a light appeared in his eyes: "Mr. Xiang means that the late emperor arranged an assassin in the Yulin Camp, and the assassin has been by Chi Fengdian's side. If the assassin sees the Sword-Slaying Order, he will know that it is the late emperor's will to kill Chi Fengdian?"

Xiang Tianbei nodded and said, "Yes, this was arranged by the late emperor himself."

Qi Ning received a positive answer, as if he saw a bright lamp in the darkness and clenched his fist with one hand: "Cutting Chi Fengdian can conquer the Yulin Camp?"

Xiang Tian said sadly: "The late emperor did not mention to me what happened after killing Chi Fengdian, but with the wisdom of the late emperor, he would definitely make careful arrangements for the future. If Chi Fengdian was killed but could not control the Yulin Camp, why would the late emperor give this sword killing order?"

Qi Ning also felt that the words of grief in the sky made a lot of sense.

If Chi Fengdian really arranged an assassin beside him, and when the assassin saw that the sword-killing order killed Chi Fengdian, the Yulin Camp would immediately fall into a situation where there was no head. In this case, anything could happen. Of course, the late emperor would not let the Yulin Camp have no head, and he must have made careful arrangements, but what arrangements had been made, the late emperor did not even inform Xiang Tianxiu.

In other words, this Sword-killing Order has actually been related to the control of the Yulin Camp.

Although there are not many soldiers and horses in the Yulin Camp, only about a thousand people, the importance of this military force is extraordinary. As long as you control the Yulin Camp, it is almost equivalent to controlling the imperial palace. The late emperor obviously attached great importance to the control of this military force.

As Xiang Tiange said, if Chi Fengdian was loyal, the sword-Zhu Ling would not have to be invited out. However, if Chi Fengdian had a little disagreement, the sword-Zhu Ling would be able to play a role immediately.

The late emperor had a long-term plan, but he had already made plans for the response in Yulin Camp.

No wonder Xiang Tianbei repeatedly mentioned Chi Fengdian's loyalty before telling him about the purpose of the Sword Zhu. If Chi Fengdian was indeed loyal, he would take his name with the Sword Zhu, if he violated the will of the previous emperor.

Qi Ning finally understood why Xiangtian grief was always in mind when his life was in danger, and even handed over the sword order to his own hands.

"At present, it doesn't matter whether Chi Fengdian is really rebellious." After a silence, Qi Ning finally said: "The Yulin Camp is no longer under his control and must return to our hands."

Xiangtian thought for a moment, but didn't say much.

"Although the Sword Punishment Order can let the assassin kill Chi Fengdian, will the assassin stay by Chi Fengdian's side?" Qi Ning frowned and said, "The late emperor arranged the assassin to be in the Yulin Camp, but it was impossible for the assassin to follow Chi Fengdian day and night. Otherwise, such an abnormality would have long made Chi Fengdian suspicious. Since it was hidden, the two assassins must behave very ordinary in daily life, and they would not let Chi Fengdian see any flaws, nor would we see who it is." The brows became tighter: "How should we awaken the assassin with the Sword Punishment Order?"

Xiangtian said sadly: "So the time for asking for the Sword Punishment Order is extremely important."

Qi Ning thought about it, put the Sword-Slaying Order back into the bag, and then said, "But the most urgent thing is to find out the whereabouts of the emperor."

"What are the plans for the young master?"

"You can only enter the palace." Qi Ning clenched his fist and said: "The emperor should still be in the palace. If you want to know where the emperor is trapped now, you can only go deep into the palace to investigate."

"The palace is full of palaces, and Xiao Shaozong is already full of his people in the palace. It is not easy to find the emperor in the palace." Xiang Tian frowned sadly and said, "And Xiao Shaozong will definitely hide the emperor in an extremely secret place, which is unexpected."
