Chapter 157 Mrs. Chen

The next night, the sky was dark and cold, with fine snow falling.

The ink-colored Great Wall, the headquarters of Beihunying.

Deputy General Du Chang paced back and forth in the tent. He had already received the news that the Lord was under house arrest. He was extremely anxious at the moment. The two sides had already shared the same fate.

"Report, someone outside the tent wants to see you, claiming to be surnamed Zhu, and is an old acquaintance of the general."

Deputy General Du Chang stopped and held out his hand, saying, "Let him in quickly."

A moment later, Zhu Junshou, who was then the dispatcher of the North City Military Prefecture, rushed in and grabbed the arms of Deputy General Du Chang.

"General Du, something terrible has happened. Lord Bo has been placed under house arrest and will soon be imprisoned for questioning. I am here to report this to you."

Zhu County Magistrate wiped the sweat from his forehead, his face furious, "General, do you have any complaints? It was clearly the Beihun Camp that defeated the barbarian army, but no one from top to bottom has given any reward. Your Excellency has been wrongly wronged, it is really hateful!"

Deputy General Du Chang asked anxiously, "Did Lord Bo really kill Master Yan?"

"Of course it's fake. It's just an excuse by the court to weaken the governor." Zhu Junshou whispered, "The Duke has decided to defect to the Northern Barbarians. If you stay here, you will be seriously implicated."

"But we just defeated the barbarians."

"General, this is why the Northern Barbarian King's Court promised you a high position and generous salary!"

County Magistrate Zhu took out a piece of cloth from his bosom and when he opened it, he found the official seal of the North City Commander.

"Here is the token."

Deputy General Du Chang looked at it again and again and confirmed that it was correct. The gold-patterned knife was made by the royal palace, and it might be temporarily imitated, but the official seals of the fifth rank and above were uniformly manufactured when the Daqian era name was changed, and there would be no mistake.

After a while, he clasped his fists and said, "Du has already chosen you, my Lord. I am willing to share life and death, wealth and honor with you!"

"There is no time to lose." County Magistrate Zhu said solemnly.

Deputy General Du Chang left.

County Magistrate Zhu stood there with a natural look. In fact, he had been working for the Yan family from the beginning. He was the first to mobilize the county soldiers and rush to the princess's convoy, not because he reacted the fastest, but because he was in charge of watching the robbery and killing of the caravan.

After much thought, County Magistrate Zhu reflected on himself. He realized that he had indeed accompanied the princess's team in the beginning in order to take a further step, but the most important thing was to protect the princess's safety. After all, the Yan family had no plan to rob and kill the princess. It was all the three priests who acted on their own initiative.

During the whole surveillance process afterwards, he believed that he only revealed some flaws on the eve of the suppression of bandits, and repeatedly requested the Earl of Suppression of Rebellion to purchase more weapons for the government soldiers to strengthen the siege. Strictly speaking, this was questionable, but he later cleared the suspicion with the explanation of being completely unaware, and was forced to leave, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise, and he luckily avoided the massacre.

"Master, beating the drum to appeal for justice and the case of counterfeiting the seal were just a trick of the master of the family. This time, the golden knife plan is the ultimate killer."

County Magistrate Zhu shook his head and stepped into the night. To be honest, he still admired the young military hero very much. It was a pity that Du Chang had rebelled this time, and the two sides were at war, and his trusted generals had defected. Even if he jumped into the Jianjiang River, the Earl would not be able to clear himself. By then, whether he was willing or not, the King of Anbei would be forced to make the worst choice. This was an inevitable outcome determined by the other party's position and attributes.

A few hours later, the news spread throughout the Ink Great Wall.

Du Chang, the garrison commander of Beihunying, led four hundred of his trusted followers across the Great Wall and surrendered to the Northern Barbarians.

At the same time, another piece of news came.

King Anbei fainted from anger.

……

At dawn, light snow fell.

Jiang He returned to his uncle's house in Daming Prefecture.

Zhuang Ya was still sleeping soundly. Practicing the Snake Sword Technique had consumed a lot of her energy.

Jiang He walked into the South Study and just sat down when a reminder sounded from the friend column on the player panel.

Cangshan Fuxue: Danger! At Chou time last night, Beihun Duchang rebelled and surrendered to the Northern Barbarians. The matter of Qilin has become a joint discovery of King Anbei and the head of the Yan family, and the latter escorted Qilin out of Yizhou. The Jianchi Conference was officially held, and the owner of Jubao Tower has arrived. You killed his only successor, and he publicly issued a declaration of war.

Jiang He was slightly stunned by three consecutive pieces of bad news. The owner of Jubao Tower had some strength, roughly ranking around tenth in the world, but this guy learned the rituals of fasting from the Taoist Palace. The more sufficient the treasure materials, the stronger the actual combat power.

"Misfortunes never come alone."

Mo Ke: What are you going to do?

Cangshan Fuxue: It’s nothing. I was busy with the sword debate and ran away as soon as the conference was over. In comparison, your incident was not that big of a deal. Before dawn, the commander of the city gate rebelled. No matter whether we marched from Daming Prefecture or the Ink Great Wall, we would have to take a detour for half a day, at least a whole day in total. The fall of Yizhou was a foregone conclusion. Moreover, because the 10,000 halberd-bearing soldiers took over part of the defense, all cavalry deployments were in the process of adjustment, so there was no chance of even a miracle.

Mo Ke: Dragon City?
Cangshan Mountain is covered with snow: There are still 40,000 Buddhist cavalry. Jiang He lowered his eyelids slightly. The current commander of Dangguan City is the commander of the North City Dusi Mansion. He was transferred after he came to Daming Mansion. If you look more carefully, the military officers and centurions who served the Yan family before are also serving in the north of the city.

"Not only that, the fifteen centurions and the palace soldiers, as well as another deputy governor Cao Jin, are also members of the Yan family... Are they all undercover agents?"

Longcheng, which had never appeared on the front battlefield, chose to attack the flank as a pass, and the defender surrendered, which affected the main task. The situation suddenly became extremely critical.

"Uncle, please take care of yourself."

Beside him, Butler Wu handed over a cup of tea with concern.

"The Anbei Palace has turned hostile, the owner of Jubao Tower has challenged him to a duel, the head of the Yan family has taken the Qilin's credit, and the main mission is in crisis."

Jiang He picked up the teacup and looked out the window. It was snowing lightly and the mangroves cultivated in the palace were covered in silver. He had been looking forward to the spectacle of "fire in the snow". After all, he had lived on an island for many years and had never seen snow.

"It's nothing more than that."

Jiang He took a sip of tea. It was highly poisonous, so he just used it as a seasoning.

"Where are you from?"

Seeing Ping Luan Bo drink the tea, Butler Wu straightened the rocker.

"I am working for Madam Chen. There is Wan Ku Powder in the tea. As long as you are willing to serve me, Madam would not mind giving me the antidote."

Jiang He stood up and kicked him straight, turning him into a bloody mist.

He was not surprised by this answer. Steward Wu came from a servant in the backyard of the palace. According to the princess, the backyard and the spies were previously managed by Madam Chen, and the ambergris was sold to the Chamber of Commerce under the command of the princess. When he went to discuss the matter of Qilin with the princess, he did smell the scent of ambergris.

Sensing the unusual movement, Zhuang Ya woke up in a daze

"Big snake."

"It's not a big deal, go back to sleep."

"Oh."

Jiang He took off his scarlet robe, went to the warehouse, picked out a black singlet to change into, then went out, turned left and entered the palace.

Walking on the snow with a gun in hand, Jiang He went straight into the backyard.

"Uncle, stop!"

"Who is coming!"

Corpses fell one after another, it couldn't be called a battle at all.

Jiang He walked towards a crowded place and saw the pitiful Mrs. Chen.

"Uncle, what are you doing?"

[Hint: You are affected by the rare skill Charm Corrosion]
[Hint: You are disturbed by the rare skill: Surge of Emotions]
[Hint: You are affected by the rare skill Endless Love]
[Hint: You are affected by the rare skill "Merciful"]
……

[Reminder: Your mental resistance and rank have been judged and you have been exempted from all influences]
Jiang He blasted Mrs. Chen's head to pieces with one shot, using seven consecutive rare-level charm skills. The opponent was not outstanding in other aspects.

Take the scarlet card.

Suddenly, in a roadside wine shop a few miles away, a middle-aged man who was drinking suddenly howled in sorrow, his true energy surged, and he noticed that something abnormal had disappeared from his body, which meant the death of his lover.

A faint sound was heard.

Jiang He turned around and left at a very fast speed. When the city was in danger, he did not have time to fight for life and death with the owner of Yanyu Tower.

The mechanism box obtained from Fenglei Baozhuang appeared in Jiang He's hand. He took out a scarlet card. This card came from the Grey Knight. As expected, the Grey Knight, who liked to make arrangements in advance, would not leave any interference items, and he actually already had the answer.

With the Scarlet Card, there is only one thing inside.

Jiang He took out the key and opened the mechanism box.

There was only an old note and three words inside.
