Qin Shou gently wiped the blood stains on the blade with his hand, and a treacherous smile flashed on his face. Sima Jun came over and patted his shoulder with a smile, "I haven't seen you for many days. Brother Qin's sword skills have improved greatly. I'm afraid Chang
I won’t know what happened until I die.”
Jin Dingguo kicked Chang Feng's head aside and said with a contemptuous smile: "It's his fault that he doesn't know how to commend himself. It's rare for his adoptive father to trust him so much, but this guy let Liu Fuju go behind his adoptive father's back."
Qin Shoudao: "Yes, in fact, Master Chang Da has no intention of killing Liu Fuju at all. He only wants to save Master Chang Er."
Wang Boyan smiled and waved his hand, "That's it, that's it. Chang Feng is dead. You will be the big boss here from now on. As long as you do your best to help me sit on the dragon throne, I won't be able to treat you badly in the future."
Hearing Wang Boyan shamelessly calling himself "I", Shao Yan smiled bitterly in his heart. Everyone has wanted to be the emperor throughout the ages, but there are only a few who can truly become the emperor. Most of those who seek power and usurp the throne will not end well. This old man is quite old.
It's really a tragedy in life that you are still so restless.
Qin Shou lived up to his name. He even killed his eldest brother for glory and wealth. Shao Yan remembered a wise saying in the world, "Brothers are all for sale." In the blink of an eye, Changfeng Village has become history, a vigorous and powerful village.
The 'Qin Beast Village' has stepped onto the stage of history, "My subordinate Qin Shou thanks the Emperor for your kindness, long live long live!" A few minutes ago, Qin Shou was just a lowly follower around Chang Feng, and now he has transformed into Chang Feng Village.
In order to repay Wang Boyan for cultivating him, this guy proudly voted for his loyalty in front of Wang Boyan.
Shao Yan listened to his impassioned speech and couldn't help but feel sad for his fate. Although Wang Boyan was the prime minister, he was very narrow-minded. As long as the people around him had even the slightest second thoughts, they would end up like Chang Feng. Qin Shou was insidious and cunning.
, such people are the most stubborn. Shao Yan believes that in the near future, Qin Shou will definitely die in a very 'tragic' way.
"Master Qin, most of the 100 brothers in Luanshigang were brought out by Chang Feng. Chang Feng's sudden murder will definitely arouse their suspicion. Do you have any good ideas? Now is the critical moment.
Don’t make any trouble, otherwise you will fall short of your success.”
Qin Shou said confidently: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, my subordinates have made arrangements. When it gets dark, I will have Chang Feng's body placed at the door of Shao Yan's room. The brothers in the village are all rough people. They will definitely
This matter will be recorded on Shao Yan’s body.”
Wang Boyan guessed the second half of his sentence and said with a flattering smile: "When the time comes, you, the new head, will come forward to intercede for Shao Yan. I won't be afraid that you won't be able to convince him. Head Qin, do you think I am right?"
"The Emperor is wise"
There was another burst of laughter inside the cave
Shao Yan was so angry that he gritted his teeth. In order to achieve their goals, these people used more cruel methods and despicable ideas. Fortunately, he had the foresight to dig this secret tunnel in advance, otherwise he would have been in big trouble.
After Wang Boyan and others left, Shao Yan and Bai Mei quietly came to the cave, only to see many weapons hanging on the walls around them. Shao Yan had just seen it clearly. Before leaving, Wang Boyan put his dragon robe on the corner of the wall.
In a wooden box, Shao Yan walked over and carefully opened the wooden box, and found that there were not only dragon robes, but also jade seals, dragon crowns, and phoenix crowns. In addition, he found a small box under the wooden box, and opened it.
Look, it's full of fake banknotes, at least more than 10,000 taels.
Shao Yan was overjoyed. Hehe, old guy, let me see where you are going this time. Just when he was feeling complacent, Bai Mei took a stack of banknotes and threw them to the ground. Shao Yan saw the words on the stack of banknotes.
The pattern is obviously a bit special. When I picked it up and took a look, I saw the word "Donglin" written on the back.
I understand, these are the banknotes of Donglin Kingdom. Today, Wang Boyan has a huge appetite. Before he can stand firm, he stretches his claws to other countries.
"Your Highness, look!" With an exclamation, Bai Mei took out an iron block from the wooden box. Shao Yan saw that there were some patterns engraved on the front and back of the iron block. After careful comparison, he discovered that the pattern on it was the same as the pattern on the banknote.
They are exactly the same, with Donglin Kingdom on the front and Nanliang on the back.
"Your Highness, what are these?" When Baimei is smart, he is smarter than anyone else. When he is stupid, he is simply a headache. The pattern on the iron block is so obvious that he didn't even notice it.
"Mold" Shao Yan replied
"Mold? What is a mold?"
"It's a special tool for printing counterfeit banknotes."
Bai Mei suddenly realized, "No wonder there are so many fake banknotes among the people. With this thing, just put it on the paper and it will be a banknote. It seems that Wang Boyan has gone to great lengths to usurp the throne."
"I think he has ulterior motives." Shao Yan felt that there was a bigger secret hidden behind this matter.
"Why did Your Highness say this?"
Shao Yan snorted coldly and said: "Brother Baimei, think about it, why does Wang Boyan only have banknote printing molds from Nanliang and Donglin countries, but not from Western Chu country?"
Hearing what Shao Yan said, a trace of surprise flashed through Bai Mei's deep eyes, and he patted his thigh and said: "Yes, Your Highness is still wise. Why didn't you think of this? Your Highness has thought so carefully. It is really an act of God."
also"
Shao Yan didn't have time to listen to his flattery, so he immediately wrapped the entire set of dragon robes and carried it on his back. Bai Mei asked hurriedly: "Your Highness, what should I do with this mold?"
"Bring them together"
"Follow your orders"
After packing up, the two followed the direction Wang Boyan and others left and quickly found the exit. Just as the master and servant walked out of the cave happily, they suddenly found a group of bandit minions coming not far away. The two quickly hid in the cave.
Beside a grave, when they approached, Shao Yan heard the leader shouting: "Hurry up, Shao Yan killed Chang Da's boss, we have to catch him before dark
he"
Shao Yan was stunned. Why did he move so quickly if he hadn't promised to do it that night? It turned out that after Qin Shou returned to the village, he first concealed the news of Chang Feng's death from the brothers in the village. He only told them that Chang Feng was unwell and put the affairs of the village on hold for the time being.
The robbers were naturally convinced that he was left to handle it. Qin Shou followed Wang Boyan's wishes and sent more people to guard Shao Yan's residence. The people who came reported that Shao Yan had disappeared, and Qin Shou was shocked.
, personally led people to Shao Yan's residence, and then discovered the secret passage under the bed. Qin Shou suddenly became angry and asked people to chase him along the secret passage. He happened to catch up with the farmers who were fighting for gold, silver and jewelry. Qin Shou
He killed them all in a fit of anger, and then spread the news that Chang Feng was killed by Shao Yan. When the "veteran ministers" in Chang Feng Village heard that their boss had been killed, they were filled with indignation and led their men to hunt down the murderer, which also led to the
The scene above
"If you can't find this guy before dark, don't come back to see me." The leader was very excited and was obviously Chang Feng's confidant.
Seeing the bandits running down the mountain in an endless stream, Baimei pressed his eyebrows to Shao Yan's ear and asked: "Young master, do you think Master Deng will come at this time?"
"If there's no traffic jam on the road, we should be almost there."
"Traffic jam?"
Seeing Bai Mei's surprised look, Shao Yan realized that he had forgotten that he was still in ancient times because of his sudden remarks, and said with a smile: "I mean, as long as the road goes well, we should be there soon."
"Oh" Bai Mei nodded deeply. This old guy had followed Shao Yan for so many days and would often hear some unfamiliar words from Shao Yan's mouth. After a long time, he got used to it.
"So what do we do now?"
"wait"
"How long will it take?"
"Wait until Master Deng comes over."
"Oh" Bai Mei stopped asking, because he absolutely believed in the young master's intelligence.
Shao Yan lay down behind the grave, looking at the densely packed dogtail grass all around. He wanted to light them to attract the attention of the robbers, but then slipped away in the chaos, so he reached for the lighter and accidentally touched the bright moon from his arms.
Then he remembered that Mingyue and Lian'er were still in the village, so when the patrols had just passed by, he stood up suddenly, his white eyebrows doubly surprised, "Young Master, what are you doing?"
"Brother Baimei, Lian'er and Miss Mingyue are still inside. If Qin Shou can't find me, he will definitely take it out on these two girls."
"You want to go back and save them?"
"Yes, I can't leave them alone"
"No, it's too dangerous. You are the crown prince of the Donglin Kingdom and the future emperor. Even if you don't care about your personal safety, you must also consider the feelings of the emperor, the queen and the people of the Donglin Kingdom." After saying this, he knelt on the ground with a puff of white eyebrows.
, "Your Highness, please put the country, the country, and the country first, and do not act emotionally."
Seeing Bai Mei start to do his ideological work again, Shao Yan smiled coldly and said disdainfully, "The country and the country are important, but life is more precious. No matter what you say, I have saved the lives of Lian'er and Mingyue."
