Su's house.

Zhen Ping and Li Gang were meeting Mei Changsu.

They reported how he defeated nine masters one by one.

They also promised that these nine people would not be able to use swords for a month.

Mei Changsu nodded in satisfaction.

The three of them discussed other matters for a while.

"That's it, the kitchen has prepared dinner, let's go."

Mei Changsu was just about to get up.

At this time, the servant came to report:"Master, Mr. Thirteen is here."

Mei Changsu frowned instantly:"Why is Mr. Thirteen here?"

"Sect Master, if it wasn't urgent, I'm afraid Mr. Thirteen wouldn't have come here directly without sending a message through Tong Lu."

"I'm afraid something has happened."

Li Gang frowned.

After a while, Mr. Thirteen walked in quickly:"Master."

Li Gang stood up and gave his seat to Mr. Thirteen.

"What happened?" Mei Changsu asked

"Sect Master, the people I left near those nine masters have come back to report that they are all dead."

"While no one was around, he went in to take a look. There were no signs of a fight in the room, but the man's throat was cut by a knife."

"He was originally planning to go to other people's mansions to take a look, but soon people from Ningguo Marquis's Mansion came and took away all the bodies."

"Our people saw several people from a distance, all of them were killed by a knife cutting their throats."

"The man who attacked this time is obviously not a brother of our Jiangzuo League, but such a master suddenly appeared and killed people. I thought it would be better to come and inform the leader in person."

Mr. Thirteen reported.

Zhen Ping was surprised and said,"All dead? Cut their throats with a knife? Even if they can't use swords, they didn't suffer any internal injuries. How could they not be able to dodge the danger?"

Mei Changsu quickly simulated Mr. Thirteen's words in his mind and soon got a conclusion:"It's not that they couldn't dodge, they were killed without even realizing the danger."

"Obviously, that person must be a master, and an assassination expert."

Li Gang was puzzled and asked:"Killer? Why would the killer come to Jinling City? And it would be fine if he didn't kill the nobles, but why did he focus on these nine people?"

"This can't be a revenge killing."

Mei Changsu looked at Mr. Thirteen and asked,"No one saw you when you came, right?"

Mr. Thirteen shook his head and said,"Master, don't worry, I came secretly, and there are experts nearby to investigate."

Mei Changsu nodded in relief.

Mr. Thirteen is his intelligence chief in Jinling. He usually hides in Miaoyinfang and cannot reveal his identity.

"Sect Master, I have thought about this on the way here. I really didn't expect that there is any force in Jinling that has such a master."

"I am ashamed to have failed the trust of the clan leader."

Mr. Thirteen apologized.

Mei Changsu quickly helped him up:"Don't say that. Jinling is so big that we can't investigate every corner. Besides, maybe that person has just entered the capital."

Mr. Thirteen is the old man of the Lin Mansion. In the huge Lin Mansion, there is only one person like him.

"Alas!"

Mr. Thirteen sighed in shame.

"We have asked everyone to be more careful recently. If there is nothing serious, it is best not to move around."

"Although the sudden appearance of a master was unexpected, there was also good news. At least, that person was not from the Ningguo Marquis Mansion."

"Moreover, I felt vaguely that the man seemed to be telling me something."

"It seems that he is somewhat dissatisfied with me for injuring those nine masters but not killing them."

"Or maybe he thinks we are too petty, and only dares to hurt people but not kill them."

Mei Changsu said while rubbing his sleeves subconsciously.

Zhen Ping suddenly said,"Master, if that's the case, then we have another clue. The other party knows my identity, and he knows our Jiangzuo League very well."

Mei Changsu was stunned, then said,"That's right." (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Mr. Thirteen, we have asked our people to keep a low profile recently, and then secretly investigate whether there are any new masters in Jinling, similar to assassins."

"If there are similar targets, don't let any of them go, let Tianjitang investigate their backgrounds one by one."

Mr. Thirteen bowed:"Yes!"

A few days later[]

Ming Palace.

Back garden.

Next to the lake.

Xiao Jingli is playing chess with Nie Feng, who has fully recovered.

"Snapped!"

"How does General Nie Feng feel now?"

Xiao Jingli asked, placing a black piece.

"Thank you, Your Highness. The fire and cold poison in my body has been cleared. Although I have no internal strength, I feel good....."Nie Feng placed a white chess piece in response.

"Well, that's good. If you feel unwell, go see the doctor in the palace in time. After all, although this Fire Cold Pill is specially developed for Fire Cold Poison, you are the first person to take it."

"If there are any problems, they can also make improvements in time."

After Xiao Jingli finished speaking, he picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip.

Last time, he gave Mei Changsu a pill. Finally, the Su family sent back the news that Mei Changsu's health was better than before.

The cough was significantly reduced.

But Doctor Yan was a little angry. He felt that it was a waste to take such a pill. He should study it for him. Maybe he could crack its composition and refine a similar pill.

Moreover, according to the diagnosis of Doctor Yan's physical examination of Mei Changsu, if there were dozens of such pills, they might be able to completely remove the fire and cold poison in his body.

Mei Changsu smiled unrestrainedly after knowing this. He felt that there would not be dozens of pills that could cure hundreds of poisons.

"Thank you, Your Highness. I will pay attention to it."

Nie Feng nodded carefully. He knew who would be the next person to take the pill.

At this time, Luowang personnel came over and whispered in Xiao Jingli's ear:"Your Highness, just now Zhuo Dingfeng and Zhuo Qingyao went to assassinate the new Minister of Revenue Shen Zhui"

"However, with the protection of Zhen Ping from the Jiangzuo League, Xiao Jingrui's sudden appearance, and the passing of the general from Prince Jing's Mansion, 4.8 was rescued."

"Xiao Jingrui was hit by a sword in the shoulder, but it was not serious."

"Got it, let's go down"

"Yes!

Luowang had already spread the news that Xie Yu was going to assassinate Shen Zhui.

However, Xiao Jingli did not pay much attention to it.

Shen Zhui might be a clean stream in this corrupt court, but in his eyes, he was not a high-level talent.

This was very sad.

Shen Zhui, who was only a third-rank official in terms of talent and skills, became a treasure to save the country in the eyes of Xiao Jingyan and Mei Changsu.

It can be seen how corrupt the court has become.

If it gets more corrupt, I am afraid it will just be buying and selling official positions.

Yes, if the Daliang court was not corrupt, how could he have the opportunity to collect hundreds of thousands of refugees and form a large army.
