Although Di Xin was holding a book in his hand, he was not really reading. Instead, he was looking at Zhao Yue'er who was bored and exploring around the study room out of the corner of his eye.
Although he felt a little sorry for Zhao Yue'er who came to play with him because of her trust, he did infer a lot of useful information from her words, intentionally or unintentionally.
The most important point is that during this period of time, Zhao Quanyou went out at night more and more often.
Whenever you walk through, there will be traces.
This is a truth that everyone who needs to keep their identity secret knows, such as spies and spies. Therefore, all lurkers have a rule, that is, intelligence personnel at all levels should try to minimize the number of contacts unless necessary.
The purpose of this rule is to prevent too many clues left after frequent contact, which may eventually lead to identity exposure.
During this period of time, Di Xin deliberately exposed several suitable opportunities to take action in order to test, but each time Zhao Quanyou chose to turn a blind eye because of Zeng Hongshen's presence. After many times, Di Xin had roughly figured out his character.
.
That is too much caution and not enough courage.
Such a cautious person would not forget this rule, or he should abide by the rules more than anyone else. Now that there is such an abnormality, there is only one reason.
That is because the forces behind him can't wait any longer and are constantly urging him to complete the task quickly.
…
Zhao Quanyou is helpless now, including this time, this is the fifth time that Lord Shenjun has urged him to assassinate King Yu as soon as possible.
He also wanted to complete the task as soon as possible, but as long as outsiders were around, Old Man Tiancan, the innate great master, would never leave Di Xin's protection. If he took action forcefully, the best result would be to die together with His Royal Highness Prince Yu.
Today, we finally had the perfect opportunity for Zeng Hongshen to temporarily leave the general's mansion, but An Junshan, who is also the commander of the capital, never left because of curiosity.
Zhao Quanyou had not cherished his life so much before. He had used life-threatening assassination methods countless times, but it was different after he had his daughter.
He promised Zhao Yue'er's late mother that he would protect Zhao Yue'er well and train her to be a well-educated and sensible lady.
That is to say, after this, Zhao Quanyou became more and more cherished about his life, and rarely took on too dangerous tasks.
Originally, although he knew about Zeng Hongshen's existence, because the target of the assassination was not him but His Highness Prince Yu, who was just a martial arts cultivator the day after tomorrow, he felt that this task was not too difficult.
However, he did not expect that things would change forever.
Whether it was an acquired martial arts cultivator or a cripple whose foundation was destroyed, it was not difficult for Zhao Quanyou to assassinate him. However, he did not expect that Zeng Hongshen actually had some troubles in order to protect His Royal Highness Prince Yu whose foundation was destroyed later.
Sick.
Zeng Hongshen's constant protection became the biggest obstacle to his assassination of King Yu.
But Zhao Quanyou still did not give up. There is a saying that only a thousand days can make a thief. How can a thousand days prevent a thief? As long as you wait, there will always be a chance to take action.
He still has a little patience.
But it is obvious that Lord Shenjun is not as patient as Zhao Quanyou, and he even urges his subordinates frequently even at the risk of increasing their chances of being exposed.
…
General's Mansion, study room.
Zhao Yue'er soon lost interest in the study. After taking away the cakes on Di Xin's table, she returned to her seat and started eating.
This process did not bother Di Xin at all.
Di Xin sighed inaudibly.
Zhao Yue'er's nature is not as domineering and willful as she shows, but she usually holds it back too much, so when she has the chance to release it, it seems a bit excessive.
This was how she behaved now. He had obviously promised her that she could come and play with him, but he just said he was busy, and she really didn't bother him for more than half an hour.
Even playing alone is a bit boring.
Putting down the book in his hand, Di Xin was about to speak, but Zhao Yue'er jumped up first and said hurriedly: "Ah... my father is going back soon, I have to leave."
Di Xin's words were stuck in his throat.
Together with Zhao Quanyou, she went out for an hour or two, but she also took the opportunity to sneak out secretly, and she was not afraid of being discovered?
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and Di Xin said: "Be careful when you go back, so you don't get discovered."
It's just that Zhao Yue'er no longer cared about God Xin. She hurriedly said "I know" and almost ran out of the study.
Di Xin shook his head, and after waiting for a while, he also left the study. When he reached the door, he waved his hand, and the study suddenly became dark.
…
Zhao Quanyou returned to the inn and felt the long breathing coming from Zhao Yue'er's room. A trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and then he quietly returned to his room.
The entire inn has been booked by him, and apart from the boss and the waiter, there is no one who does not belong to the caravan, so there is no need to worry too much about being discovered.
Back in the room, Zhao Quanyou did not light the lamp, but with the help of the weak moonlight and his six senses that were far beyond ordinary people, he could still see everything clearly.
Go to the table and sit down.
Zhao Quanyou picked up the teapot and poured a cup of herbal tea. He didn't care that it had been sitting there for a day, so he picked up the teacup and drank it.
He joined Mingyue Tower because he didn't want to live a homeless life anymore. One of the conditions for recruiting him was that he promised not to arrange too dangerous tasks.
At that time, the scale of Mingyue Tower was not very large.
Nowadays, the scale of Mingyue Tower is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more capable people and strangers. Now Lord Shenjun is no longer as short of people as before, so he has slowly forgotten this promise.
In other words, he has not forgotten, but with the expansion of Mingyue Tower, he can no longer allow anyone to refuse his orders and tasks.
Zhao Quanyou sighed.
The condition agreed at the beginning was that if one day the Lord God forced him to do a task that was too dangerous, then he could leave Mingyue Tower on his own.
Lord Shenjun may have thought that Mingyue Tower's current power could intimidate Zhao Quanyou, but he didn't realize that. He, who had always been very cautious, had already prepared an escape route when he first joined Mingyue Tower.
And as we become more familiar with the personnel and composition of Mingyue Tower, this retreat becomes more complete.
Therefore, once Zhao Quanyou decides to withdraw from Mingyue Tower, Lord Shenjun will not want to find him for ten years. As for the future, no force will have the patience to hunt down a person for such a long time.
However, Lord Shenjun was kind to him after all, and he had indeed taken good care of him over the years.
Zhao Quanyou was not a merciless person, so he did not give up this task directly.
Half a month.
Half a month is the deadline. If he can find an opportunity within this period, he will kill King Yu and repay Lord Shenjun's kindness for so many years.
But half a month later, even if there was no chance to kill King Yu, he would take his daughter and run away.
Nothing in this world is more important than his daughter.
