The grass in the factory should be plucked

Nangong Qinghe was very worried. He secretly wrote to Jiang Li to ask when plan two would be implemented.

Jiang Li wrote back saying that the current situation would not cause any substantial harm to the Duke of Zhenguo and others, so there was no rush to implement Plan 2.

On the contrary, it would be safer to let the leaders of the "Prince of Jin Party" such as the Duke of Zhenguo temporarily avoid the limelight.

Let the bullet of the "Demon Book" fly for a while, and it would be best to bring down the Qi Wang Party as much as possible.

When it comes to leaking information, it's better to release it bit by bit. Your opponent doesn't know what your trump card is, and the more panicked he is, the more he will lose his composure.

The Duke of Zhenguo also started to take action.

Qian Song, a member of the Imperial Censorate, submitted a memorial to the emperor, accusing the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites Guo Changqing and Chang Ge Lao of being involved in the "evil book case".

They fabricated the "evil book" with the purpose of bringing disaster upon Prince Jin and thereby preventing him from ascending to the throne.

Lord Chang and Lord Shen have always been at odds with each other, and Lord Shen seems to be supporting the King of Qi, so he wants to drag him into the water.

Guo Changqing is a disciple of Lord Chang, so he is naturally considered a member of the King of Qi's party.

Lord Chang and Guo Changqing cried out that they were wronged, saying that this was a completely unfounded accusation!

The emperor had no choice but to order the two men to stay at home and ordered the Embroidered Uniform Guard to search their homes, but of course they found nothing.

This was like stirring up a hornet's nest, and the Qi Wang faction began to attack the Zhenguo Duke's faction frantically.

The faction of the Duke of Zhenguo is not willing to be outdone. Today you report me, and tomorrow I report you too, and the main goal is to have a give-and-take relationship.

After a few days of turmoil, only Prime Minister Liang was left in the cabinet, the court was mostly empty, and the Dali Temple and prison were almost full.

Every official felt insecure. In the early morning before going to court or going to the government office, they would say goodbye to their families and make arrangements for their funeral arrangements, for fear that they would never come back.

The emperor was furious and severely reprimanded the East Factory and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, believing that they were not doing their job well and had not found the culprit of the "Demon Book Case" for so long!

Especially the East Factory, have they been lazy recently? They couldn't even find Lü Youliang in Shanxi. It was as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth, leaving no trace at all!

For a while, the Eastern Depot and the Embroidered Uniform Guard were under tremendous pressure.

The East Depot's men patrolled the streets every day, and the secret guards worked overtime to keep watch. Jiang Li was so tired that his chin pointed a little.

Xie Changan saw this and felt very distressed, but there was nothing he could do. He could only remind her to bring a hand warmer and prepare ginger soup for her to prevent her from getting frozen.

That night, after Nangong Qinghe came out of the palace to attend to the patient, he took a carriage back to the Prince of Jin's Mansion.

Winter nights come early. After the palace gates are locked at three quarters past three in the evening, it soon becomes dark.

There were few pedestrians on the street. A team of guards escorted the Prince of Jin's carriage. The sound of horse hooves was particularly clear in the winter night.

Nangong Qinghe felt a little sleepy and closed his eyes to take a nap.

At this moment, there was a sudden gust of wind, and a sharp arrow flew in from the carriage window like lightning!

The young eunuch Yuanbao suddenly pushed Nangong Qinghe to the ground and avoided the arrow filled with internal energy!

"There are assassins!"

"Protect His Highness!"

The guards quickly surrounded the carriage.

Yuan Bao quickly helped Nangong Qinghe up: "Your Highness, are you okay?"

Nangong Qinghe was still in shock: "I'm fine. Is there an assassin?"

Suddenly, a strange laugh was heard from outside the carriage, and the assassin had started fighting with the guards.

Nangong Qinghe calmed himself down, quietly lifted the curtain and looked outside.

Several big men in black clothes and masks were fighting fiercely with the guards.

These men were highly skilled in martial arts and had strange moves. The guards were soon at a disadvantage. They fought hard and prevented the assassins from approaching the carriage.

A big man with a sword forced the guards away with one blow, flew towards the carriage, and was about to stab with the sword!

Nangong Qinghe retreated in panic, but in a flash, he heard the cry of an eagle, and a black shadow fell from the sky and pecked the sword-wielding man hard.

"Ah——" The man with the sword stepped back in pain.

"Chengfeng, quickly inform the adults!"

A familiar cry was heard, and Nangong Qinghe suddenly opened his eyes wide and quickly looked out through the car window.

The sword light was like snow. A petite masked man in black holding a soft sword, his figure erratic, quickly shuttled among the assassins.

"Ari?" Nangong Qinghe's eyes suddenly filled with tears and he was extremely excited.

It turned out that Jiang Li was on duty nearby. When he heard the sound of fighting, he rushed over and found that someone was trying to assassinate Nangong Qinghe!

She hurriedly joined the battle with Xiaoying.

Jiang Li was actually no match for these people, but when she used her Cloud-Stepping Technique with all her strength, her figure became as elusive as clouds and smoke, and these people couldn't even touch the corner of her clothes.

She and Xiaoying would launch surprise attacks and harassment out of the blue, which greatly reduced the pressure on the guards.

Nangong Qinghe's eyes were full of surprise. He never expected that Jiang Li's martial arts skills were so high!

In the night, her figure was graceful, as if she was walking on the wind and lightly walking on water. In his eyes, she was like a fairy descending to the earth.

Jiang Li fluttered to the top of the carriage and said, "Your Highness, are you okay?"

"I, I'm fine..." Nangong Qinghe was so excited that he spoke incoherently.

Jiang Li squatted on the roof of the carriage and whistled sharply, summoning the nearby secret guards for support.

One of the big men in black shouted angrily, "It was her who killed that bitch Lao Wu!"

Another big man in black had a fierce look in his eyes and attacked Jiang Li with a knife raised.

Another eagle's cry was heard, and a sharp knife wind suddenly came. The big man didn't even have time to scream before his head and body were separated!

The hot blood sprayed on the carriage, and Nangong Qinghe's face turned pale instantly.

Jiang Li shouted in surprise: "Sir, you are here!"

She pointed at the big guys and said, "They are in the same group as the Yellow River ghost from last time!"

"Okay." Xie Changan said, "You take a rest, leave this to me."

He turned to the men in black and smiled wickedly, "You've come just in time!"

These people are none other than the "Six Ghosts of the Yellow River", the killers wanted by the Ministry of Justice.

Last time, Lao Wu participated in the capture of Jiang Li, but was stabbed to death by Xie Changan, who also cut off his head and took it to the Ministry of Justice to collect the reward.

Just now he killed the fourth brother with one knife!

The remaining four ghosts of the Yellow River were filled with anger and fear, and they pounced on Xie Changan together.

The guards surrounded the carriage and watched Xie Changan fighting with the four ghosts.

Xie Changan was still able to handle four people at once with ease. The flash of his sword was like lightning, whistling with the sound of wind and thunder. In the blink of an eye, he killed the second of the four ghosts with his sword.

"Second brother!" The eldest of the Four Ghosts of the Yellow River cried out in grief.

The third brother was so frightened that he made a feint and was about to escape, but Jiang Li flew up lightly, and his sword was like a silver snake, blocking his way.

The head of the guards could not help but praise: "Master Xie is really good at martial arts! Even his secret guards are so capable!"

Another guard whispered, "That secret guard seems to be a girl?"

The head of the guards said, "What's wrong with being a girl? There are many female warriors with great martial arts skills in the martial arts world."

Nangong Qinghe felt happy and sad when he heard this.

A'li's skills are so amazing!

He was deeply jealous of Xie Changan who could fight alongside her...

At this time, the other secret guards also arrived, and in a few moves, the remaining two ghosts were captured.
