Chapter 24 Ready-made scapegoat, no need to use it in vain
Regarding Lin Gong's death, Qin Hao had no emotions in his heart. As Lin Wan'er's brother, he was indeed a good brother, but he was a cold-blooded devil to ordinary people. In the original drama, his face was accidentally seen on the way to escape.
, killing the opponent without saying a word, perhaps in his opinion, the life of a civilian is not much different from that of an animal.
Seeing the corpses of Lin Gong and the female swordsman, Si Lili was frightened and inexplicably moved. However, after calming down, he still said to Qin Hao with a trembling voice.
"If Prime Minister Lin knew about it, Lin Gong would die here..."
Qin Hao pointed to the corpses of the two female swordsmen and said lightly: "Don't worry, no one will know that Lin Gong died on your flower boat. No, the scapegoat is ready."
"You mean to blame Si Gu Jian?"
Qin Hao smiled. When it comes to the master who takes the blame for Qing Yunian, it must be Sigu Jian. In the original play, Lin Gong's death was blamed on Sigu Jian by Chen Pingping. Later, Fan Xian entered the palace to steal the key, and Wu Zhu led the way.
Although Hong Sixiang still passed the blame to Sigu Jian.
Such a useful scapegoat, why can't others use him?
Qin Hao picked up the bodies of Lin Gong and the two female swordsmen and threw them directly off the flower boat, and then threw the three swords into the Liujing River one after another.
"I just used the sword technique of Sigu Sword to kill Lin Gong, and I used the sword technique of Nanqing to kill those two. When their bodies are washed down the Liujing River, they will probably be discovered. Then someone will naturally do it.
Put Lin Gong’s death on Si Gu Jian’s head.”
Si Lili said worriedly: "Lin Ruofu is an old fox, he won't believe it easily."
"Of course someone will force him to believe it when the time comes." A smile appeared on Qin Hao's lips.
"Your men should have no problem cleaning up the traces, right?"
Si Lili was slightly startled: "I know what to do."
For the Northern Qi spies, cleaning up the scene was a piece of cake. Soon there was no smell of blood on the flower boat anymore, and all the windows damaged in the fight were replaced. As for the servants killed by the two female swordsmen,
It was also replaced by a new one, and everything returned to its original state.
Just when Si Lili was sending Qin Hao to the plywood, he happened to bump into Ye Linger.
"Didn't you say you have nothing to do with her?" Ye Linger's face was full of resentment.
Qin Hao also felt like he was being caught for a moment, even though he had done nothing with Si Lili just now.
Seeing Ye Ling'er's jealous look, Si Lili immediately understood what was going on. He covered his mouth and smiled softly: "Many dignitaries have come to this flower boat of the Nu family. A daughter's family like Miss Ye is the first one."
See you."
"Hmph, I want you to take care of it, take your dirty hands away!" Ye Ling'er said angrily.
Si Lili also seemed to have a competitive spirit. Not only did she not let go of Qin Hao's sleeves, but she pressed closer to him.
"Miss Ye, don't be so angry. It's not good for you to be so impatient. This man likes women who are as gentle as water. You will scare people away."
Ye Ling'er gritted her teeth and cursed: "Hmph, I think you are just a fool."
"Let me ask you, what did you do when Fan Xian was on your flower boat that night?"
Facing Ye Ling'er's arrogant questioning, the manager raised his eyebrows and smiled sweetly.
"Commander Qin, what do you think this man and woman can do on the flower boat at night? Of course they want to spend a spring night together..."
Ye Ling'er could no longer suppress the anger in her heart and shouted: "Bitch!"
After saying that, she flew to the front of Si Lili and struck out with her palm. With her palm strength as a seventh-level warrior, if the palm was hit with hatred, Si Lili would lose half of his life even if he did not die.
Qin Hao frowned, and just when Ye Ling'er's palm was about to hit Si Lili's chest, he pulled her back with his left hand, palmed Ye Ling'er with his right hand, and grabbed her wrist.
"Miss Ye, what I did with Mr. Fan is none of your business. Why should you get angry in shame? Is it possible that you like Mr. Fan?"
Ye Ling'er was so angry that she was shaking all over: "Let go, I will tear this bitch's mouth apart."
Qin Hao did not let go of Ye Ling'er, but turned to glare at Si Lili: "Is it fun?"
Then he said to Ye Linger again.
"Stop making trouble, do you still want to know the truth?"
Ye Linger thought of her best friend Lin Wan'er and could only suppress the anger in her heart.
Si Lili flirted with Qin Hao and said, "Why are you so fierce?"
"Okay, okay, I won't tease her."
"Miss Ye, to tell you the truth, Fan Xian didn't stay at my place that night at all. After he stunned me, he disappeared. Judging from the situation in the Jingzhao Mansion court that day, he probably went to beat me secretly.
Guo Baokun, are you satisfied with this answer?"
Ye Ling'er snorted lightly, but finally calmed down, and Qin Hao released her wrist after seeing this.
"Hmph, don't let me see you alone in the future."
With a harsh word, Ye Linger left angrily and rushed to the Lin family courtyard.
After Ye Ling'er left, Qin Hao also got off the flower boat. He couldn't help but think secretly along the way. Judging from the situation when Lin Gong came to see Si Lili, the eldest princess should have reached an agreement to cooperate with Beiqi's heavy heavy. The next step is to
He took action against Fan Xian.
But now that Qin Hao appeared and killed Lin Gong in advance, naturally no one came to carry out the Niulan Street assassination. He was not sure who the eldest princess would arrange to do next, but one thing was certain, the eldest princess would never
Letting Fan Xian go easily, this crazy woman will never look back once she makes up her mind.
After returning to the Military and Horse Division, Qin Hao called his deputy commander.
"These days, you ask the brothers to be smarter, but I always feel like something big is going to happen."
The defense of the capital is the responsibility of the Military and Horse Division. If Fan Xian was assassinated in the street, he would also be responsible for negligence. Besides, Qin Hao did not want to see a chivalrous man like Teng Zijing die like this.
"Yes, my subordinate will do it now."
Although it sounds unreliable just based on feelings, Qin Hao's prestige in the Military and Horse Division is now at its peak. With his order, the entire Military and Horse Division is like a chicken.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! There is a saying in the Ming Dynasty: The Ming army is not satisfied with the pay, but the Ming army is invincible with full pay. This is the best portrayal of the Army and Horses Division.
However, as a result, the chaotic gangs and gangsters in the capital suffered a disaster and were driven out all over the city. Many of them hid in the suburbs to temporarily avoid the danger.
At the same time, Fan Xian also lived the most leisurely life since entering the capital, copying chapters of The Red Mansion at home during the day, and going to the Royal Courtyard to have a private meeting with Lin Wan'er at night.
........
On this day, Qin Hao had just gone to court and was about to leave the imperial city when he was stopped by a voice.
"I heard that Commander Qin is extremely skilled in martial arts. I wonder if I can let Yan see it."
His surname was Yan, he dared to challenge a ninth-level master, and he was in the palace. With these conditions combined, Qin Hao knew who the person was even without turning around.
Yan Xiaoyi, the Ninth-level Archery God of the Qing Kingdom, is also the only Ninth-level archer. It is said that with his archery skills, even if he hits the Grand Master, he will be injured.
"Commander Yan is in such a good mood today?" Qin Hao was secretly vigilant. It was not because of Yan Xiaoyi's strength. The ninth rank might be very strong for others, but for him, as long as he is not a grand master, he would not bring it.
Scared.
The key is, this Yan Xiaoyi belongs to the eldest princess.
Qin Hao didn't believe that that crazy woman would ask Yan Xiaoyi to come to him for a martial arts competition for no reason, most likely to delay him. It seems that the actions of the Heavenly Soldiers and Horses these days have created uncertainties for the eldest princess's plan.
It's possible that the Bingma Division also has someone appointed by the eldest princess, and the official position is not low.
"Commander Yan is so interested, and Mr. Qin also wants to see the power of Nanqing's Archery God. It's just that he has been busy with official duties recently, so why not wait for another day?"
"Hold on, is Commander Qin afraid?"
Yan Xiaoyi hurriedly stopped in front of Qin Hao.
Qin Hao was now more certain that the eldest princess's plan to assassinate Fan Xian was already being implemented.
"I've heard for a long time that Commander Yan has extraordinary archery skills. Qin really wants to see it."
A gleam flashed in Yan Xiaoyi's eyes, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Yan has also heard for a long time that Commander Qin is excellent in martial arts, but he just doesn't know how many arrows Yan can withstand."
As the only ninth-level archer, Yan Xiaoyi does have arrogance. Ever since he became famous, he has relied on his superb archery skills to achieve success, even killing by leaps and bounds. The ninth-level master who died under his arrows,
There are also five or six.
Qin Hao stretched out three fingers, and the smile on Yan Xiaoyi's face was about to bloom uncontrollably, but Qin Hao suddenly said: "If you can shoot three arrows, you win."
Yan Xiaoyi's smile froze on his face, and then he snorted coldly: "I hope Commander Qin can be as skilled as his mouth, but don't fail to catch an arrow, that would be too boring."
Soon, the news about Qin Hao's martial arts competition with Yan Xiaoyi spread in the imperial city.
In the main hall, Emperor Qing, who was making arrowheads, heard Eunuch Hou's report and simply said: "They are young and energetic after all. Let them go, as long as they don't hurt their lives."
The personal maid whispered in the ear of the eldest princess, but the eldest princess only moved her eyebrows slightly.
"Then let the other side take action."
"yes."
On the top of the imperial city, Qin Hao and Yan Xiaoyi stood on two adjacent palaces, fifty steps apart, which was also the best attack distance for shooters.
Below the two palaces, there were already a crowd of civil and military officials, guards, maids, and eunuchs watching the fun.
After all, it is a battle between ninth-level masters. One side is the only ninth-level archer in the world, and the other is the youngest ninth-level master in the Qing Kingdom. Such a duel may only be seen once in a lifetime. The opportunity is rare, and no one wants to
Wish to miss it.
"Master Liu, who do you think will win, Commander Yan or Commander Qin?"
"There's no need to ask. Of course it's Commander Yan. It's not easy to get close to a ninth-level archer at a distance of fifty steps without obstacles."
"That's not necessarily true. Commander Qin was able to defeat Si Gu Jian's leader disciple, Ku He's disciple, by leaps and bounds when he was at the eighth level."
"However, Commander Yan also once leapfrogged and killed Tanaka Shu, a ninth-level master of the Northern Qi Dynasty, when he was at the eighth level."
Most people still think that Yan Xiaoyi will win. After all, Qin Hao defeated Yun Zhilan and Lang Tao. It is just a rumor that few people have seen it, but Yan Xiaoyi's achievements are real, plus the terrain
Advantage, only a few people think Qin Hao can defeat Yan Xiaoyi.
Just as everyone was talking, Yan Xiaoyi took off the long bow behind him and held it tightly in his hand. He was confident enough that as long as the bow was still in his hand and as long as there were arrows in his quiver, there would be no one in the world except for the great master.
He can kill them all.
"Commander Qin, you're not welcome to Yan."
Qin Hao still stood still, waiting quietly for Yan Xiaoyi to bend his bow and draw an arrow.
"Hmph, you have to pay the price for your arrogance today." Yan Xiaoyi was sullen in his heart, closed one eye, and the energy in his body surged, making his robes rustle.
Fifty steps, one murderous step at a time. Yan Xiaoyi's eyes, as cold as arrows, locked onto Qin Hao, and his fingers slowly stretched the string. The sound of the first arrow piercing the air resounded through the sky, and the air seemed to be torn, and it went straight to Qin Hao's throat.
.
Qin Hao, however, did not move, his domineering Qi surged, the wind of his fist swayed slightly, and the arrow reached three inches in front of his throat, but was deflected by an invisible force. The next second, the cornice in the corner of the palace exploded, and the cornice on the cornice exploded.
The stone beast sitting in charge had half of its head cut off. The cut was as smooth as a mirror, just like cutting. The force was controlled so precisely that it was a miraculous skill.
This scene also stunned everyone watching the battle below. In their eyes, it only took a blink of an eye from Yan Xiaoyi's arrow to arrive in front of Qin Hao. Many of them did not even see Qin Hao clearly.
How did he miss the arrow?
Seeing that his first arrow was easily deflected by Qin Hao, Yan Xiaoyi was surprised and aroused his competitive spirit, shouting: "Commander Qin has good tactics, Yan will no longer hold back the second arrow."
"
While speaking, Yan Xiaoyi had already loosened the finger holding the arrow tail. The arrow was faster and harder. The tip of the arrow almost touched the edge of the sun and hit Qin Hao's chest.
This time, Qin Hao moved and bent down to avoid Yan Xiaoyi's killing arrow. Then he tapped his foot lightly and drew a half circle on the eaves of the palace with his whole body. In an instant, he came to the edge of the palace.
The distance from Yan Xiaoyi has also reduced from the initial fifty steps to only thirty steps. The powerful explosive power of the domineering Qi is also clearly revealed at this moment.
Yan Xiaoyi's reaction was also very fast. Just at the moment when he shot the second arrow, his hand had already touched the arrow pot behind him. However, Qin Hao's speed was so fast that Yan Xiaoyi couldn't help but sweat broke out on his forehead.
, knowing full well that the third arrow would decide everything. He took a deep breath and concentrated all his strength on the bowstring. This would be an arrow that could shake the mountains and rivers.
However, Qin Hao's steps were faster. His eight-step movement technique coupled with the powerful explosive power of his domineering Qi, his body was as fast as thunder. In an instant, he was less than five steps away from Yan Xiaoyi.
Yan Xiaoyi kept swinging his arms, trying to lock onto Qin Hao's figure. However, Qin Hao's erratic movement dazzled him, and he was unable to shoot the third arrow.
Finally, when the two sides were only three steps away, Yan Xiaoyi suddenly had a flash of light in his eyes: "I got you!"
Just when Yan Xiaoyi was about to release his finger from holding the arrow tail, Qin Hao once again burst out with astonishing speed. What shocked Yan Xiaoyi even more was that the opponent actually hit him straight.
Amidst the lightning and flint, a harsh hissing sound shook the eardrums of everyone present.
However, he saw that Qin Hao had already grabbed Yan Xiaoyi's bow with one hand, and the arrow that was about to leave the bowstring was stuck on the bowstring with two fingers. This was where the harsh sound just came from.
With a "bang", the strong bow that had followed Yan Xiaoyi for many years was shattered to pieces by this huge force.
