Don’t Show the Son

   Chapter 142 Prince's surprise

  The assassin invited by the prince this time is obviously unusual.

Although his martial arts cultivation base is not high, he can poison people to death without physical contact. Obviously, he has this kind of supernatural ability. It is no wonder that after Qin Wu's death, the Qing officials did not investigate the work of the officials. Any clues.

  Even if it is a high-level alien magician or martial artist, if he is not careful, he must be planted in his hands.

  Lin Xiu didn't know what kind of poison Ake got, but in front of him, no matter what kind of poison, there was no difference.

   took A-Ke back to the room, Lin Xiu used her power to remove the toxins from her body without much effort, A-Ke leaned in his arms, gritted her teeth with little effort and said, "He uses poison, despicable!"

Lin Xiu couldn't help but knocked on her forehead, and said, "Are you walking the rivers and lakes on your first day, and what rules are you talking about with an assassin, if it wasn't for me, you would be killed by this guy who is weaker than you? already."

  Ake's lips moved, but in the end she couldn't refute Lin Xiu.

   He was right. Tonight, she was careless.

   She is an assassin, and the assassin will kill him with one blow, without giving the opponent any chance to react. If he kills him immediately, he has no chance of poisoning.

Before   , she would definitely do it.

   But tonight, she has him by her side.

  With him by her side, she always had an inexplicable sense of security in her heart.

   Putting Ake on the bed, Lin Xiu walked outside and groped for a while on the assassin's body.

  Assassins generally do not have a fixed residence, and they carry their important belongings with them. Lin Xiu took out more than 7,000 taels of silver and a token from him.

The    token seems to be made of pure gold, with some intricate patterns on one side and a number, fifteen, on the other side.

  Lin Xiu remembered that he had obtained a similar token from the bandit leader.

   He flipped his right hand, and another token appeared in his hand. He compared the two tokens and found that except for the different numbers, the two tokens were exactly the same, and there was no difference.

He took the token to the room, and after showing it to Ake, Ake said: "This is the token of the Shadow Organization, the owners of these two tokens are both assassins of the Shadow Organization, and you are the other token. How did you get it?"

  The shadow organization Lin Xiu knew that this was an assassin organization active in Daxia, and it was doing the act of collecting money to kill people. This organization has existed for a long time, and the court did not deliberately target them.

  Because this is a neutral organization, it has always only recognized money, not people, and will not deliberately make trouble with the court.

Ake wondered: "The No. 1 of the Dark Night Organization is also their leader, and No. 11 is the top ten assassins except for the leader. Although he is the last one, his strength must be on the ground. What is his token? Will it be in your hands?"

Lin Xiu explained to her a little about the process of getting the token, and A-ke told him: "You have to hide this token, you can't show it easily, if the Dark Night Organization knows that you killed him, they will definitely I won't let you go, when the time comes, there may be assassins from the ground level..."

  Lin Xiu put the token into the space and said, "Don't worry, I won't let others see it."

   Afterwards, he gave the seven thousand taels of silver to Ake and said, "You take these silvers, I have no shortage of silvers, you need them more than me."

  Ake looked at Lin Xiu, was silent for a moment, but did not refuse.

   Tiandao Alliance really needs money. With money, we can do more things and help more people.

   It's just that this is 7,000 taels of silver. Over the years, how many people have she seen husbands and wives turn against each other because of silver brothers, but someone gave 7,000 taels of silver to a stranger who hadn't met a few times.

   He would also risk his life to save a stranger.

   will also kill the powerful for the justice of the people who have nothing to do with him.

   He is the same person as them.

Seeing her accepting the money, Lin Xiu warned again: "Also, when you are outside, no matter what you do, you must not be reckless, and you must always remember that your own life is the most important thing. , don't be afraid of running out of firewood, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, even though you are a woman, the truth is the same..."

  Ake looked at him and said, "You are very long-winded."

Lin Xiu glanced at her and said, "I haven't finished talking yet, be careful when you go out, don't trust others too much, don't eat things given to you by unfamiliar people, and don't sleep in unfamiliar and unsafe places. , know the face but not the heart, be careful to be sold by others and count the money for others..."

   told her a lot of things uneasy. Lin Xiu used stealth and flying to transfer the assassin's body to the outside of the city and bury it. After returning home, he disposed of the bloodstains in the yard.

   The next morning, when he woke up, Akko's room was empty.

   Her quilt was neatly folded, and only a faint scent remained on the bed.

   She belongs to the rivers and lakes, and this is just a place for her short stay.

  Tonight, in this empty house, he slept alone again.

   Went to the pretty widow to eat steamed buns, and took a look at her situation. After all, it was the task that the Emperor Dog gave him, so Lin Xiu still had to check it out for himself.

After   , as usual, he went to the Yishu Academy to double repair with Princess Minghe.

   Before cultivating with Princess Minghe, he had to practice on the bed of Xuanbing with Lingyin, absorb the cold air of Xuanbing, and saturate the Yuan force that the ice magic can increase.

   Lingyin has become the former Lingyin again, trying to drain Lin Xiu like before.

   But now is not what it used to be. He is squeezing himself to the limit every day, let alone Lingyin, even if she plus Princess Minghe, Lin Xiu can handle it.

   Lingyin's purpose of preventing him from messing around with flowers by draining him, I'm afraid it will fail.

  Lin Xiu knows her better than herself.

   Her little thought could not be concealed from him.

  Lin Xiu finished his practice very early today.

   He plans to go to see the imperial concubine earlier in the future.

  According to Lin Xiu's observation of the prince these days, he would go to greet the empress every other day, and the time for each greeting was very fixed.

  It so happened that Lin Xiu also went to see the imperial concubine once every other day.

  The reason why he and the prince didn't meet is because the prince went early, he went late, and their times were staggered.

  Lin Xiu is still looking forward to seeing the prince. The suppression of his ability can give him a sense of superiority and satisfaction.

   In the past, the prince could not do anything with him.

   Now he has nothing to do with Lin Xiu.

  Lin Xiu likes to see others dislike him, and can't get rid of him, and can't do anything about him.

   It is true that he can't do anything to the prince now, but as long as he is uncomfortable, Lin Xiu is happy.

   At the entrance of the harem, the prince entered the harem accompanied by a eunuch.

  It was customary for him to come to greet his mother, but he was thinking of other things.

   The assassin should have attacked Lin Xiu last night, but this morning, the capital seemed very calm. It stands to reason that Zhao Lingjun's husband was assassinated, and the whole capital should be boiling.

   Could it be that no one has found his body yet?

   After all, he lived alone, and it took less than half a day, and it was normal that no one noticed.

  Prince thought so in his heart, and suddenly noticed an aura that disgusted him from behind.

   In addition to disgust, there is repression.

  Prince turned around slowly and saw a figure walking towards him.

   The moment he saw the figure, the prince's pupils shrank suddenly and his heart shook violently.

  Lin Xiu, Lin Xiu is still alive!

   Didn't the assassin say that this operation is foolproof!

  Where did the others go? Why did Lin Xiu still appear in front of him after last night?

   Did that man take the five thousand taels of silver that he paid in advance and run away?

   At this moment, countless thoughts flashed in the prince's mind, Lin Xiu had already stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness."

Being so close to Lin Xiu, the prince resisted the discomfort in his heart, squeezed a smile on his face, and said, "It's Lin Xiu, the son of Uncle Ping An, this palace knows that you, your husband and wife, are the pillars of my future in the summer. ."

  Lin Xiu said embarrassedly, "His Royal Highness has won an award."

  The prince didn't want to see Lin Xiu at all, and he didn't want to be so close to him. The unnatural twitch on his face asked, "This is the harem, why are you here?"

  Lin Xiu said: "At your Majesty's order, go to Changchun Palace to take care of the noble concubine's spiritual pet."

  Prince nodded and said, "Then you can go."

   He really didn't want to take another look at Lin Xiu, and he didn't want to spend more time with him.

  Lin Xiu smiled and said, "His Royal Highness wants to greet the Empress, please go to Yongning Palace, I will go to Changchun Palace, let's go along the way, why don't we go together..."

  Prince's discomfort at the moment has reached the extreme, but he can only forcibly suppress his emotions and smile: "Let's go..."

   From the entrance of the harem to the Yongning Palace, this short walk, the prince seems to have walked for several hours, and the psychological discomfort far exceeds the physical discomfort.

The moment    walked into Yongning Palace, he could no longer maintain his smile, and his face was completely gloomy.

At this time, Lin Xiu had also entered the Changchun Palace. Unlike the Crown Prince, he had no reason to be happy when he saw the imperial concubine, and he had come to Changchun Palace several times, and there were some touches in his heart that he had never had before. .

   Before Lin Xiu was a pitiful concubine who lived in the deep palace for a long time, there was only one spiritual pet to accompany her, and there was no one who could talk to her.

   Only now did he realize that he and the imperial concubine were both sympathetic and pitiful people, so he had no right to pity the imperial concubine.

  There is a spiritual pet by the concubine's side. There is nothing by his side. No, no, I have to go home tonight and pick up Da Huang. It is better to have a dog by my side than nothing.

  In Changchun Palace, the imperial concubine looked at Lin Xiu in surprise and asked, "Why did you come so early today?"

  Lin Xiu stroked the pet in his arms and said, "I have nothing to do today. If I have nothing to do in the future, I will come over earlier. By the way, Niangniang, are you obedient these days?"

   Concubine now regrets it.

   Regrets taking such a name for the pet.

   This was originally her nickname, and only the closest people would call her that. Although she knew that Lin Xiu was calling her a spiritual pet, she still had a strange feeling in her heart.

   But it's not easy for her to correct Lin Xiu, otherwise, it's not that she is embarrassed by herself, but embarrassed by two people.

   accompanied the imperial concubine and the concubine in Changchun Palace for a while, until a bird flew over her head and chirped twice.

  Lin Xiu and the noble concubine said goodbye and walked out of Changchun Palace. They happened to see the prince coming out of Yongning Palace.

   He looked at the prince with a smile on his face, and said, "What a coincidence, it seems that I and His Royal Highness are really destined to go out of the palace together..."

  The Crown Prince glanced at him, then turned around and entered the Yongning Palace, saying, "Bengong suddenly remembered that there is an important matter to discuss with the Queen Mother, you should go back first..."
