Chapter 146 Mission
The charcoal in the stove was burning. When the heavy snow stopped, Ding Yixiu went out to buy some breakfast and brought it back to the room. The money left by his junior brother yesterday was enough for the recent splurge.
A pot of wine is indispensable. Although there is some charcoal in the stove, the wine will warm your body.
A few steamed buns and an elbow.
This breakfast is already very rich for Ding Yixiu. He has been really poor recently. If it weren't for the money sent by Zhou Liyuan, Ding Yixiu would be hungry again.
Ding Yixiu held his chin with one hand and took out a piece of charcoal from the bag with the other hand and threw it into the stove. The fire in the stove instantly became stronger.
Ding Yixiu picked up the chair and moved closer to the stove, so that it would not be so cold.
Snow days are not difficult to endure, but the first day after heavy snowfall is difficult.
Leaning on the chair, killing time, until after dark, he can go out to perform tasks. In this way, he will have a lot of money in his account, which makes him happy just thinking about it.
Ding Yixiu put his hands on the back of his head and lay on the chair, his mood naturally improved.
Junior brother left here early, probably going back to Ziwu Lane. Junior brother has everything there. It's really a good place. People like me don't deserve such a place.
A prodigal son, no matter what kind of home he wants, what is the use of him?
Ding Yixiu is not sad or sad. After the death of his master, he will no longer have a home, so he is used to it.
"Ding Yixiu?"
A voice came from outside the door, and the tone seemed to be asking the people inside.
Ding Yixiu stood up suddenly, pressing the Tang Dao in his hand to the ground. He stood up instantly and looked at the door with cold eyes.
"Who are you?"
The person outside the door did not answer, but opened the door.
The person who catches the eye is wearing a brocade robe, and the clothes he wears are very rich and noble.
The door opened, snowflakes flew down one after another and fell to the ground. The person who came had a handkerchief in his hand and covered his mouth and nose.
"What the hell is this place? It's really annoying our family."
Ding Yixiu walked out of the room, came to the yard, looked at the person coming, and said softly: "Eunuch Zhao."
The visitor, Ding Yixiu, knows Zhao Wu, who ranks second among the eunuchs in the palace. He lives in Chang'an City. If you don't even know such a person, it means you will die.
Zhao Wu turned his head and ordered the following guards to stay outside. He faced Ding Yixiu alone, "Yes, it's our home."
Ding Yixiu politely raised his hand and said, "When Eunuch Zhao comes to my humble abode, the plum blossoms shine brightly."
Zhao Wu waved his hands, unwilling to listen to such polite words, "If you don't want such polite words, our ears will feel numb."
Ding Yixiu smiled and continued, "I wonder what Eunuch Zhao is doing?"
Zhao Wu looked Ding Yixiu up and down, and nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, the internal strength of his body is strong, and the sword intention has been formed, but it is not
Do you know what your state is like?"
Ding Yixiu laughed, put the tip of the Tang Dao in his hand on the ground, tilted his head and said, "Father-in-law, you can give it a try."
Zhao Wu was stunned for a moment, then he became happy and pointed at Ding Yixiu with his right hand, "This is what our family has in mind."
As soon as he finished speaking, snowflakes flew out from the fence beside the yard, filling the small yard with snowflakes all over the sky, blocking the view.
Ding Yixiu smiled evilly, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly. With the Tang Dao on the ground as the center, an invisible force emanated from the Tang Dao in Ding Yixiu's hand. At this moment, Ding Yixiu was not angry and powerful, just like a heavenly being.
.
Several figures in the yard began to move around Ding Yixiu. Ding Yixiu sneered and the Tang sword was instantly unsheathed.
"puff."
Among the snowflakes all over the sky, stained with scarlet, a figure instantly fell to the ground.
Ding Yixiu landed on the ground not far away, and then burst out. The Tang Dao in his hand kept waving, and red snowflakes kept appearing.
After a while, except for Ding Yixiu and Zhao Wu, there was no one alive in the courtyard.
After putting away the knife, Ding Yixiu took out a rag, wiped the blood on the Tang knife, and threw the rag into the snow with a look of disgust.
Zhao Wu looked satisfied and took the handkerchief from between his mouth and nose, "You have good martial arts and good cultivation."
Ding Yixiu chuckled, as if he wasn't the one who had just killed someone, with a joking look on his face, "My father-in-law Miao praised me."
Zhao Wu laughed, took out a bag from his arms, and threw it towards Ding Yixiu. Ding Yixiu took it and opened it. It turned out to be white silver, no more, no less, one hundred taels.
Ding Yixiu was a little confused and asked: "What does this mean, father-in-law?"
Zhao Wu said softly: "Kill some people for our family."
"Two hundred taels."
Before Zhao Wu could speak, Ding Yixiu smiled and said a number. Zhao Wu did not hesitate, took out a bag from his arms and threw it at Ding Yixiu, another hundred taels.
Ding Yixiu looked at the silver in his hand with satisfaction, a smile on his face, and the Tang sword in his hand was sheathed again, "I wonder who my father-in-law wants to kill?"
Zhao Wu summoned a guard, took out a blueprint from his hand, and threw it to Ding Yixiu, "A few days ago, the Jinyi Guards captured a group of Taoist priests. Go and kill them."
Ding Yixiu took a look at the drawing. What was marked on it was the distribution map of Ziwu Lane's hidden sentries and imperial prisons. A circle was clearly drawn in one place in red handwriting.
"I'm afraid my father-in-law is not joking. Ziwu Lane is the headquarters of Jinyiwei. If I go there like this, it is tantamount to seeking death."
Zhao Wu waved his hand, "I don't want you to go now. His Majesty's birthday will be in a few days. At that time, there will be all kinds of people on the birthday. Jin Yiwei and Dali Temple will have to cooperate with the Royal Guards to maintain the order of the banquet. You can take advantage of the opportunity
At this time, go and kill them."
Ding Yixiu still felt something was wrong. After all, Jinyiwei's base camp was so easy to enter.
Yes, there were so many people who tried to rob the prison but failed. Ding Yixiu didn't think he was any better than those people.
"Father-in-law, can you change the task?"
Zhao Wu looked unhappy, but without any irritation, "Okay, after a few days, His Majesty will be assassinated. Are you responsible for killing the assassin?"
It was at this moment that Ding Yixiu realized that he had boarded a pirate ship and was involved in royal affairs, and his own life was not enough.
"My father-in-law is joking again."
Zhao Wu's tone was heavy, and the displeasure in his heart had reached its peak, "You see, our family seems to be joking."
Ding Yixiu squinted his eyes and looked at Zhao Wu, whose aura was beginning to rise. He was tit for tat. How could Ding Yixiu, who dared to use his sword even in the face of Gu Kaizhi, be afraid of Zhao Wu, a eunuch?
"My father-in-law is not easy to make money."
Zhao Wu stopped talking nonsense and directly took out a token and said to Ding Yixiu: "You knew the most about your master back then, so you should recognize this token."
Ding Yixiu gritted his teeth and lowered his voice. "Why is this token in my father-in-law's hand?"
Zhao Wu put away the token without explaining the reason, and continued: "Now you have a choice. I forgot to mention that your junior brother seems to know nothing about your master back then. You said that if I tell everything
If he gets it, what will he do?"
Ding Yixiu clenched the Tang Dao in his hand and was about to attack Zhao Wu to kill and silence him.
The corner of Zhao Wu's mouth raised, "Why, if you want to kill people and silence them, with your unfinished sword skills and humble realm, you may not even be able to touch the corners of our clothes."
Ding Yixiu bit his lips, and a trace of imperceptible blood flowed from them, and anger filled his chest.
"My father-in-law is really a good calculator."
Zhao Wu turned a blind eye to Ding Yixiu's small actions. A small person can still make a huge difference.
"You answer it or you don't."
Ding Yixiu was no longer silent, and picked up the Tang Dao in his hand, "My father-in-law is thinking about such good things, so why don't you use the money you sent me?"
Zhao Wu nodded with satisfaction. The purpose of coming today was considered successful, so today's loss can be made up for. Although Ding Yixiu is of low level, his sword skills are good. The most important thing is his identity. He is an ordinary commoner.
Someone will pay too much attention to him.
Those disgraceful things are just for them to do.
Zhao Wu turned around and was about to leave. Ding Yixiu took a look at the corpses and blood in the yard and said, "My father-in-law, please send someone to take these corpses away and clean up the blood in the yard."
"Easy to say."
Zhao Wu took out a portrait from his arms and handed it to Ding Yixiu, "I will take you to meet this person in a few days. You'd better get familiar with her appearance and information first."
Ding Yixiu took the portrait. On the portrait was a girl wearing red clothes and holding a red umbrella in her hand. She looked sweet and had delicate features.
