Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world

#439 - Even you know that something is going to happen in the capital?

Wu Huan witnessed the scene before him, and his heart suddenly understood.

He secretly rejoiced that he had stumbled upon this excellent opportunity, stepping forward the instant those mysterious experts intimidated the assassins.

In this way, he not only successfully saved his life but also showed his face greatly in front of everyone, which was a rare opportunity that he couldn't get on a normal day.

But as he thought of this, his heart suddenly stirred, and he couldn't help but cast his gaze towards Liang Jin, who appeared extraordinarily calm among the panicked passersby on the roadside.

Liang Jin's well-timed push just now was simply a stroke of genius, grasping the timing perfectly!

A thought flashed through Wu Huan's mind: Could it be… that all of this was meticulously arranged by Liang Jin?

If that were the case, then Liang Jin… wouldn't he be an unfathomable existence?!

Wu Huan was startled by this sudden thought, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

But he quickly shook his head, denying this idea.

It's definitely impossible!

Today's matchmaking itinerary was arranged by himself, and they happened to encounter this assassination along the way. Everything was just a random coincidence.

Liang Jin must have just happened to see those seven swordsmen appear, and with his keen insight, guessed the situation, and pushed himself out in time, the purpose of which was to allow himself to seize the first merit.

If Liang Jin was so powerful, how could he still be just a small soldier?

Thinking of this, a warm current surged in Wu Huan's heart, a warm feeling filled his body:

"Brother Liang, you are really loyal!"

You must know that those colleagues in the Imperial Guards usually scramble for credit like vicious dogs fighting for food, using any means necessary.

But Liang Jin was completely different. Not only did he not compete with him, but he also unhesitatingly pushed all the credit to him.

How could Wu Huan not be moved to tears by this kind of mind and loyalty?

Just as Wu Huan was immersed in gratitude and contemplation of Liang Jin, the seven mysterious swordsmen had already disappeared without a trace like ghosts.

And the old woman and the coachman's attention finally shifted from the direction where the swordsmen disappeared to Wu Huan.

"You are…"

The old woman didn't pay much attention to Wu Huan's self-introduction just now because the situation was tense, so she couldn't remember his name for a while.

Wu Huan hurriedly straightened his body and replied respectfully:

"This subordinate is Wu Huan, the flag officer of the Southern Imperial Guards, and also a loyal subordinate of Lord Commander of the First Uprightness."

"I just happened to be passing by here, and I never expected that in broad daylight, someone would be so bold as to assassinate the Commander's wife."

"I have always been loyal to Lord Commander of the First Uprightness, regarding him as our backbone. How can I tolerate such a thing happening before our eyes?"

"Even if I have to shed my blood and lay down my life, I am willing to risk my life to protect the safety of the Commander's wife!"

Wu Huan's words were impassioned and righteous, as if he wanted to pour all his loyalty into these few sentences.

At this time, the fierce fighting just now had attracted many onlookers.

I saw a team of yamen runners and constables in the distance running quickly towards this side with hurried steps.

And in another direction, there was also a team of Imperial Guards approaching this side.

However, this team of Imperial Guards did not belong to the Southern Imperial Guards, but to the Northern Imperial Guards.

The Imperial Guards of Daqian are divided into two branches, the Southern Imperial Guards mainly responsible for guarding the imperial city and protecting the safety of the royal family; the Northern Imperial Guards garrison the capital and have the right to intervene in the security affairs of the capital.

The old woman seemed to distrust these yamen runners and constables and the Northern Imperial Guards, and a trace of vigilance was revealed in her eyes.

She immediately instructed Wu Huan:

"Flag Officer Wu, I am going home now, please lead the way for me!"

Wu Huan was naturally eager to have the opportunity to serve the old woman, and agreed without hesitation.

He was about to act, but couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Liang Jin.

Now that there was such a good opportunity to gain merit and show his face in front of the noble, Wu Huan sincerely wanted to call Liang Jin to join him and share this glory.

But Liang Jin just shook his head at Wu Huan from afar, his eyes revealing a firm refusal.

Wu Huan saw that Liang Jin was unwilling to participate, and he didn't force it anymore.

Immediately, Wu Huan rushed to the front like a brave lion, loudly driving away all the passers-by who dared to block the road:

"Get out of the way!"

"Everyone, get out of the way for me!"

He worked very hard. Once someone didn't listen, he would add fists and feet without mercy.

And the injured coachman also endured the pain, carried the old woman on his back, and ran quickly towards the distance along the road that Wu Huan had worked hard to clear.

In fact, before pushing Wu Huan out, Liang Jin had already remembered that he had seen the three assassins in the [Nine Empty Boundless].

At that time, those three guys were watching the fierce battle between the Third-Rank martial artist and the Formation War Puppet with great interest, and they had also witnessed the terrifying power of the Formation War Puppet defeating the Third-Rank martial artist.

So Liang Jin knew in his heart that as long as the Formation War Puppet was used, it would definitely be able to scare away these three assassins.

In this way, Wu Huan could successfully make a great contribution.

The fact was just as Liang Jin had expected, everything went very smoothly.

Liang Jin didn't go anywhere else, but had been secretly following Wu Huan and the Commander's wife.

After all, no one could predict whether there would be a second wave of assassins halfway.

He was not worried about the safety of the Commander's wife, but just didn't want Wu Huan to encounter misfortune in the next possible assassination.

Fortunately, Wu Huan and his party successfully entered the First Manor.

Now the commander of the Southern Imperial Guards is called Di Yi Shou Zheng. In Daqian, the surname "Di Yi" is not uncommon. In addition to "Di Yi", there are also surnames such as "Di Er", "Di San", "Di Si", "Di Wu", "Di Liu", "Di Qi", "Di Ba".

Di Yi Shou Zheng was suddenly transferred to serve as the commander of the Southern Imperial Guards about half a year ago. As a new official, he set three fires upon taking office, and made a large-scale personnel adjustment to the high-level officials of the Southern Imperial Guards as soon as he took office.

Wu Huan and Fang Qianfeng seized the rare opportunity at that time and successfully promoted to higher positions.

It's just that Di Yi Shou Zheng has been in office for less than half a year, and he has already provoked enemies to assassinate his wife. It seems that the position of the Imperial Guard Commander is not so easy to sit on. The difficulties and dangers and open and secret arrows are unimaginable.

As for who sent those assassins, why they wanted to kill the wife of the Southern Imperial Guard Commander, and other questions, Liang Jin was too lazy to pay attention to them.

After seeing Wu Huan and others safely enter the First Manor, he turned and left without looking back.

The First Manor is heavily guarded, and it is also the home of the Southern Imperial Guard Commander. Liang Jin believed that those assassins would not easily risk breaking into it to carry out an assassination.

In this way, Wu Huan must be safe too.

Then, Liang Jin should also do his own thing.

He went straight to the real estate agent and asked him to find a suitable house.

At first, the real estate agent inevitably judged him by his appearance, looking down on him.

He sized Liang Jin up and down, and immediately felt that Liang Jin could not afford a good house, so he ignored Liang Jin and was very cold.

Of course, Liang Jin didn't have the time to waste on such trivial matters, to play the face-slapping game.

He just stuffed some silver to the real estate agent, and this small act immediately caused the real estate agent's attitude to change dramatically.

The real estate agent instantly put on an extremely enthusiastic face, treating Liang Jin even more diligently than his own father.

The real estate agent immediately said with a smile on his face:

"Sir, you really caught a good time to buy a house now!"

"There are houses for sale everywhere in this capital now. The house you want to find is simply everywhere!"

"Come, come, come! I'll take you to the roof to have a look and point it out to you!"

The real estate agent said as he enthusiastically led Liang Jin up the ladder to the roof of the second floor.

Looking out from the roof of the real estate agent's shop on the second floor, the surrounding view was very wide, and the entire capital could be seen.

The real estate agent stretched out his hand, pointed to the houses near the imperial city, and said to Liang Jin:

"Did you see that? That large area of houses is now being sold at a low price. These houses can completely meet the requirements you just mentioned."

"Especially these luxury houses, which are inhabited by nobles, you will definitely be able to get some noble aura if you buy them!"

Liang Jin took a closer look and saw that those houses were adjacent to the imperial city, and some were even at the foot of the imperial city.

Moreover, these houses were indeed good houses, not only with excellent sunshine angles and sufficient lighting, but also built very beautifully and luxuriously. The area of the houses was very large, the layout was reasonable, and they showed luxury and atmosphere everywhere.

But Liang Jin was still full of doubts and couldn't help asking:

"Can these houses really be bought?"

Since ancient times, the houses at the foot of the imperial city have been the most difficult to buy, and some locations cannot even be bought with money.

Living in a house at the foot of the imperial city usually has a higher social status symbol. The closer to the imperial palace, the more powerful the owner of the house is, the higher the status, and the closer the relationship with the emperor.

This kind of house is obviously no longer affordable for ordinary people.

At this moment, Liang Jin couldn't help but doubt the professionalism of this real estate agent and the truthfulness of what he said.

The real estate agent seemed to see Liang Jin's doubts and quickly explained:

"If it were in the past, ordinary people would naturally not even think about this kind of house, and you wouldn't be able to buy it no matter how much money you have."

"But it's different now..."

Speaking of this, the real estate agent cautiously looked around, making sure that no one was eavesdropping, and then lowered his voice and said to Liang Jin:

"This capital city is afraid of a change."

Liang Jin was shocked when he heard this, and looked at the real estate agent in surprise.

Even a real estate agent knows that the capital is about to change?

The real estate agent continued to explain:

"To tell you the truth, I have been a real estate agent for thirty years, and I have never seen this kind of situation."

"Now the real dignitaries in the capital, the nobles who live in that area of houses, are selling their properties one after another and moving away from the capital."

"You know, those mansions usually only circulate in small circles. Even if someone sells them, it won't be our turn to handle them."

"But this time is really different. There are too many people selling those mansions, and too few people taking over, so those nobles have begun to entrust us real estate agents to help sell them, just to sell them quickly."

"Think about it, so many nobles are acting in unison, doesn't that mean they have realized the problem in advance?"

When Liang Jin heard this, he didn't expect that the real estate agent's sense of smell was so sensitive that he realized that a change was about to happen in the capital through the abnormal situation of house transactions.

Most of the houses in the capital are made of earth and wood, and this kind of house is most afraid of fire.

If there are complete fire protection measures and management in peacetime, it will be better.

But once there is a war or turmoil, and order is out of control, once a fire breaks out in the city, basically the entire street will be burned down quickly.

If the property is disposed of before the turmoil, it is always better than the property being burned in the turmoil.

Moreover, fire is a small matter. Many court struggles, once failed, will have their family property confiscated, which is called confiscation.

If some nobles realize that they are in danger, then naturally they have to quickly turn their property into cash and transfer it to minimize the loss.

Otherwise, such a large house cannot be taken away, and once it is confiscated, it will be a waste.

Therefore, whenever turmoil occurs, people with vision and a keen sense of smell will indeed transfer assets in advance.

The real estate agent continued to talk endlessly:

"So, sir, now is a great opportunity to buy at the bottom!"

"You don't know, the prices of those mansions have been cut in half now! This opportunity is once in a lifetime, and you will never encounter such a cheap price again!"

"Let's just gamble!"

"Just bet that the capital will not change in the end, and just bet that even if it changes, it will not affect your house."

"Buy in at a low price now, and after living for two years, after everything is calm, those nobles will eventually return to the capital to live. When you sell it at a high price, you can not only live for two years for free, but also make a lot of money!"

"It depends on whether you dare to gamble?!"

"If you win the bet, you will become rich overnight and completely change your destiny!"

Liang Jin smiled helplessly. He didn't expect that real estate agents in every era are the same, always so inflammatory and eloquent.

"I really plan to buy a house. Let's talk about the approximate price."

He said to the real estate agent.

But the real estate agent waved his hand and said mysteriously:

"Sir, don't worry!"

"I can tell at a glance that you are a rich man, but I just don't know if your money can stand the investigation?"

"Don't worry, sir, I'm not going to ask you where the money comes from. I'm not that nosy."

"But such a large transaction is sometimes inevitably crowded and complicated, which can bring trouble to you. But I have a completely safe way here!"

"I have connections that can not only make the origin of your money clear, but also make the transaction complicated. After tossing it back and forth a few times, it will be difficult for outsiders to find out who the real buyer of the house is on the surface."

"We real estate agents do all this for the safety of the buyers."

"You only need to pay a little money, and we can take care of everything for you!"
