I can't afford it, it's super fierce!

Jiushu is a secret organization formed by the first emperor in the second year of Dayu Jiazheng. Its huge influence and authority are enough to make the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty pale.

Jiushu has the right to arrest people and even interrogate them, which is deeply trusted by the emperor.The members are composed of spies and killers, who are directly ordered to serve the emperor. No one knows how many members there are in the organization, and the identity of the members is even less well known to the outside world.Because they have multiple identities, all of them are well-trained, calm and capable.Maybe the most inconspicuous sweeping servant in a minister's family is the famous Jiushuzhong.

They are like toxins seeping into the blood, penetrating into every hole.Up to the king's side, down to the border foreign countries, the eyeliner is all over the north and south of the river, and the Kyushu of the world is under control.

And Jiang Ming, the leader of Jiushu, is even more famous and fearsome.He served as the leader of Jiushu at a young age, and he was a military marquis of the same rank.Although Gu Jinzhi has never seen Jiang Ming before, it is rumored that Jiang Ming is a beautiful tree, imposing and imposing, with excellent literary and military skills.

"Jiang Ming." As soon as the emperor was reminded, he suddenly realized: "When the first emperor was here, I met him once. The leader of Jiushu rarely showed up in the court. I think it was a chance meeting that time. Unexpectedly, three years later..."

Gu Jinzhi's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't speak.

Three years later, the leader of the Jiushu, who was the world's best in martial arts and deeply trusted by the emperor... was wiped out.

The leader died tragically, the incident happened suddenly, the Jiushu was shaken, and the government and the people were shaken.The first emperor passed away due to a serious illness, and the new emperor succeeded to the throne. Jiushu, a mysterious organization that had been brilliant for a while, was disbanded and disappeared without a trace.

Grand Master Wen looked at the emperor's face, then continued the topic just now and said: "Your Majesty does not know, this Deputy General Ding Zuo is Jiang Ming's nephew."

The emperor was surprised: "Really?"

"Yes, Ding Zuo is seventeen years old and has been in the army for two years," said the grand master.

The emperor thought to himself, Ding Zuo joined the army two years ago, and Jiang Ming died three years ago, so Ding Zuo's entry into the barracks has nothing to do with Jiu Shu: "Since he is a good general, he should make good use of it."

Grand Master Wen leaned over and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

The emperor told Grand Master Wen some more about the government affairs of the court, and Gu Jinzhi listened to it all.After having lunch in the palace and resting for a while, he was dragged by the emperor to play chess in the imperial study.Gu Jinzhi's mind was restless and his thoughts were disordered. What he was thinking about was not the chess game, but the Jiang Ming mentioned by Grand Master Wen earlier, and the Jiushu, an organization that had long since ceased to exist.

If you are absent-minded, even the best layout will have omissions.The emperor won back half of his son as he wished, but he didn't look very happy: "Jin Zhi, you didn't lose to me on purpose, did you?"

Gu Jinzhi put Yunzi back into the box one by one, looked at the emperor with a strange face, and said with a smile: "It is obvious that the emperor's chess skills have improved."

The emperor was beating drums in his heart, and his face was a little cold: "Do you have something on your mind?"

"Brother Huang, I'm worrying too much. What's on my mind? At most..." Gu Jinzhi smiled deliberately again: "I feel sorry for the hand of the maid at home, it's getting rougher and rougher, and it's not beautiful at all."

emperor:"……"

It didn't take long for the seriousness to start twitching, and the emperor had long since accepted the eccentricity and got used to it.

Leaving the imperial study room and walking out of the palace wall, it was almost dusk.Gu Jinzhi chose to sit on the saddle, and Yu Tai led the horse back home.

"My lord and His Majesty are playing chess, are you still happy?" Seeing Gu Jinzhi's preoccupied look along the way, Yu Tai couldn't help but find something to say, maybe to divert Gu Jinzhi's attention.

"The chess game is okay, but..." Gu Jinzhi's tone paused, and Yu Tai turned his head to look at him with big round eyes blinking. Gu Jinzhi simply asked, "Do you know the former leader of Jiushu, Mr. Jiang Mingjiang?"

Yu Tai replied without thinking: "Jiang Ming's name is well-known, and the young ones have heard of it, but why did His Highness suddenly mention him?"

"Today in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, His Majesty happened to mention this person."

"What kind of organization is Jiushu? His Highness knows very well. It is better to say that they hate Jiushu than that officials in the government and the public are afraid of it." Yu Tai said.

Gu Jinzhi strongly agreed: "Surveillance, spying, spies everywhere, and nets everywhere. No matter whether the emperor's relatives or important officials in the court, as long as they catch a little bit of information and present it to the Holy One, no matter how prominent the lintel is, it will disappear overnight. They Hate it, but also fear it. Everyone says that Jiu Shuquan is domineering and domineering, but if an official is clean and honest, why should he be afraid of ghosts knocking on his door."

Yu Tai smiled and said: "As for the brilliance and authority of Jiushu, it is actually thanks to the management orders of the leader Jiang Ming. An excellent organization is absolutely inseparable from an excellent commander. It is rumored that Jiang Ming is open-minded, self-denying and devoted to public affairs. He is a modest gentleman. There are mixed opinions on him in court and in the Jianghu. Apart from his outstanding talent, he is also outstanding in martial arts. His cultivation is unfathomable. He is unrivaled in the world and has never lost in a fight."

I don't know if the first half is true or not, but the second half sounds ironic.

"I've never lost before." Gu Jinzhi looked up at the brilliant afterglow at the end of the sky, "The only time I lost, I lost the lives of my whole family."

Yu Tai led the horse in front, and with the lively hawking in the market echoing in his ears, he said with emotion: "Jiang Ming didn't think of it himself. In one night, gangsters broke into the door and killed all the living in the house, not even a chicken or a dog." Let it go. The soldiers of the government struggled to resist but were unable to stop them from being brutal and bloodthirsty. Rivers of blood flowed in Jiang's house. Even if Jiang Ming's martial arts is world-class, he will be outnumbered. There are more than a hundred people in the house, parents, children, family and servants, all dead."

"It's just a sigh." Gu Jinzhi sighed, "Such a shocking change, and catching up with the late emperor's serious illness is even more powerless. Before the real culprit of the Jiangzhai massacre was found out, the whole Dayu has changed. This matter It's nothing. Of course, the other party did it too secretly. After the murder, he quickly evacuated and took away the corpse of his companion. The late emperor once thought that this was done by the enemies of Jianghu, but now there is no way to verify it."

"Yes." Yu Tai nodded and said: "Your Highness also knows that a person with Jiang Ming's status must have offended many enemies from the government and the public."

Old things like this can only be brought up occasionally among the younger generations, and there are brief and meaningless discussions, with a few sentences passing by.But for some reason, Gu Jinzhi felt a little empty in his heart.He looked at the sunset in the sky, and the orange-red sea of ​​clouds was beautiful.Candle lamps were lit one after another in the streets and alleys, and it spread throughout the night.

Suddenly, Gu Jinzhi's heart lit up.His empty heart was instantly filled, and he suddenly remembered: "Yutai, I seem to have heard about Jiang Ming's children and family members just now."

"Huh?" Yu Tai was taken aback, and looked up at him: "Who does Your Highness know?"

Gu Jinzhi was inexplicably excited: "Jiang Ming has a son, right?"
