Jiang Shang was in charge of the entire Ministry of Industry, and Zhao Xiang, as his subordinate, used his position to smuggle black powder.

Regardless of whether Jiang Shang knew about this or not, he was already in the game.

Some people used this line to hoard large quantities of gunpowder. If this gunpowder was used by someone with intentions and affected the safety of Emperor Cheng Jing, it would be a major event that would cause turmoil in the country.

Perhaps Emperor Cheng Jing is currently at odds with Empress Dowager Jiang, but it does not mean that Empress Dowager Jiang really wants to change to another emperor.

Even if she had this idea in her mind, now was not a good time.

The person hiding behind the scenes has a huge appetite and started from the Ministry of Industry, trying to drag Queen Mother Jiang into the water together. If she could get help from the Queen Mother, it would be twice the result with half the effort.

If the Queen Mother was unwilling, the Ministry of Works' smuggling of gunpowder involved treason, which would be enough to deal a serious blow to her.

If the Queen Mother can be easily threatened, she cannot sit in this position for a long time.

She did not choose to take sides or ignore it, but instead pressed the matter from its source.

The Zhao Xiang case was tried in Dali Temple, and Dali Temple, who was handling the case, was imprisoned on a charge.

Finally, the case was sealed and concluded in the name of Zhao Xiang committing suicide out of fear of crime.

The smuggling channel involved the Tsing Yi Gang, so Yu Qin was sent to jointly suppress the bandits. Of course, Yu Qin's purpose was not only to suppress the bandits, but also to monitor him throughout the process.

Make sure that he will not pursue the matter in depth. If he does, it will be the simplest way to deal with it, and get rid of him like Zhao Xiang did.

No wonder Yu Qin's first reaction when he first entered Yunzhou was to stop him, thinking that he should go to Kaiping to mobilize troops.

Even he could think that before suppressing the bandits, he needed to investigate first and then deploy troops. How could Yu Qin not think of it.

It seemed that it wasn't that he hadn't thought of it, but that he didn't want him to check it out at all.

The reason why he was led to Wei Zhili's house was because he knew that he would not find anything at Wei Zhili's place, and wanted to dispel his doubts and make him believe that the Tsing Yi Gang was a rogue bandit.

However, fate is not as good as fate. Chen Qing happened to come to Wei Zhili that night to argue, so that they heard the whole process.

This matter is destined to be hidden, so it can only reach the worst step.

Only the dead can keep secrets.

Yan Yunhe held the soft sword in his hand and looked at Yu Qin with a smile: "Hanchu has been so kind to me these past few days and bought me peach blossom cakes. It turned out that he was afraid that it would be difficult for me to have a wish before I went on the road, so he went out of his way to satisfy me. Desire for food and drink."

Yu Qin remained silent and did not speak. He slowly drew the knife, and the blade brushed the sheath, making a cold buzz.

His silence was the best answer.

"The Queen Mother asked you to kill me, but she didn't ask you to sleep with me and seduce me."

Yan Yunhe swung his sword, and the soft sword injected with internal power became hard: "It seems that this is Han Chu's usual trick , No matter who you are, no matter who you are, you have to sacrifice your appearance like this."

There was no longer any smile in his eyes, and the moment he finished speaking, he attacked with his sword. In a sudden leap, the distance between the two people quickly shortened. Yan Yunhe held the sword in both hands and struck down vertically with the thunderbolt.

The heavy and ruthless force made Yu Qin take a few steps back even if he raised his sword to block with all his strength.

The tiger's mouth instantly burst and bleeds, but Yu Qin's expression did not change at all, staring at Yan Yunhe closely.

At this time, the cunning nature of the soft sword became apparent. Just when Yu Qin thought he had completely blocked the attack, the sword blade cut out his throat with a strange arc.

If he hadn't drawn the sword from Yan Yunhe and paid full attention to the opponent's offensive, he would have been wiped by the sword at this time.

The wind on the edge of the cliff was raging, and the piercing sound of jingles in the forest was constant.

Yan Yunhe's soft sword looked like both a knife and a sword, his movements were changeable, and his moves were like lightning. Soon, many wounds appeared on Yu Qin's body.

The arms, shoulders, waist, abdomen and chest were covered with blood and scars.

Even a strand of hair on the temples was cut off, falling lightly at his feet.

The cliff was already desolate, and during their fight, their inner strength rolled up the dead leaves, clearing away all the places they had fought.

So much so that the blood dripping from Yu Qin's body fell to the ground. It was so clear and vivid that it was so red that it stung Yan Yunhe's eyes.

Yan Yunhe stood with his sword in hand: "You can't beat me."

What he stated was the truth. If the most elite members of the Jin Yiwei were present and used the human sea tactic, they might be able to drag him to death.

I don’t know what Yu Qin was thinking, but he went to the appointment alone without any soldiers.

Yu Qin raised his hand to wipe away the blood on his lips, which came out after being hit by Yan Yunhe's palm.

He had always looked bad, but now he looked bright red with blood, but he looked strangely good.

"Who will win and who will lose is yet to be determined," Yu Qin said.

Yan Yunhe frowned vigilantly. Logically speaking, Yu Qin was injured like this by him and received another slap from him. He should have suffered serious internal injuries and was unable to fight anymore.

But the more seriously Yu Qin was injured and the harder he fought, not only was the attack speed of the golden sword much faster than before, but there was also a constant flow of imitations inside, which was too unreasonable and seemed extremely weird.

The fight that should have ended quickly was actually delayed, and Yan Yunhe even had a faint tendency to lose.

The golden knife passed over his neck several times, but failed to remove the head from his neck.

The intensive attacks were like an overwhelming net of deadly knives, and Yu Qin showed no mercy to him.

Before the fight started, Yan Yunhe knew that he had to take action this time, but he still hesitated when he was about to take Yu Qin's life.

So much so that he missed the best opportunity and waited for Yu Qin's counterattack.

He fought and retreated, and finally stopped at the edge of a dangerous cliff. One step back would lead to an abyss.

At this time, Yu Qin's sword slowed down, as if he was out of strength, or perhaps Yu Qin's incredible skill finally caused a backlash.

Yan Yunhe saw the time correctly and opened Yu Qin's sword with one sword.

The golden knife flew out and dug into the boulder on the side.

In an instant, Yan Yunhe's sword was already on Yu Qin's neck. With just one move, Yu Qin would die in his hands.

From now on, there will be no one under the peach blossom tree to keep him thinking through the long nights on the border.

There is no hair that was held in the palm of my hand that night when we were in bed together.

In his peripheral vision, Yan Yunhe saw that the Jin Yiwei had arrived in the distance and was running towards here quickly.

Yu Qin suddenly moved forward, and the sharp blade cut open his flesh. Blood gushed out and splashed on the back of Yan Yunhe's hand.

At that moment, the blood was like hot lava, boiling open the back of Yan Yunhe's hand and melting into his bones.

Yan Yunhe's hands trembled, he hesitated, and froze for a second. Yu Qin was already close to him.

He saw the other person's face move from far to near, and the bloody lips landed on the same part of him.

It was a kiss stained with blood, something that had never appeared in Yan Yunhe's dreams.

He was so stunned that he was even stunned for a moment.

Just that moment was enough to be fatal.

His shoulder was slapped, and with that force, Yan Yunhe's body hung in the air and fell from the edge of the cliff.

Until then, he watched Yu Qin looking down at him, the corners of his lips slightly raised, his eyelashes slightly curved, giving him a passionate smile.

Color is a gentle sword, but the sword is deadly.

Yu Qin had already told him.

It turned out that this person realized earlier than he did that thing that was deep in his heart and had never been told by Yan Yunhe.

He and I are incompatible, and I have dirty intentions towards him.
