When Xingzhe and the others arrived at Jizhou City, it was already the morning of the next day, and because they could not find villages and towns last night, they had to camp on the plains, but despite this, after the sky was full of stars scattered around, everyone had a good night's sleep.

I saw Jizhou City from afar, and it was different from Jinling City, it had a more old feeling, lifeless, but it looked stronger than the walls of Jinling City.

His Majesty the Emperor gave Xingzhe and Li Jun a temporary task, and it was also a mission that needed to be kept secret, and the county magistrate of Jizhou didn't know that there was such a thing, so not only did no one come to pick them up, but they were unfortunately stopped by the guards guarding the city.

The armor-clad city guards held a bright sword in their hands, and the cold light was shining, just looking at it, it made people take a good look at whether they had this ability.

The guards guarding the city above the city wall bent their bows and arrows, aiming at Xingzhe and the soldiers next to him, and as long as they gave an order, they could immediately release their arrows and shoot all Xingzhe and Xingzhe's soldiers below the castle tower into a sieve.

"I don't care who you are, don't want to enter Jizhou City without a customs clearance certificate. Dare to take one more step closer and you will all become dead! ”

The general defending the city was majestic, vigilantly looking at the hundred-man squad behind Xingzhe, his left hand clasped on the hilt of the knife at his waist, ready to pull out the sword at any time.

"What should I do now? People don't seem to welcome us, you can't help it, right? ”

"Don't worry, His Majesty the Emperor has already prepared it for us."

Saying that, Li Jun took out a golden silk handkerchief from his arms, and walked towards the general defending the city with a flat face.

"Stop! If you dare to get close to me again, you will really release the arrow, and if you still want to live, leave Jizhou City immediately. ”

Li Jun shook his head.

"Look at the one who is nervous, this is for you, the emperor's secret order, send it to your county commander. Don't worry, we won't break in, because your county magistrate will personally welcome us in a while. ”

Li Jun's forced pretending made Xingzhe nod again and again, it seems that his own position as a pretending king has been shaken, but it doesn't matter, as long as he pretends to be again.

The general defending the city turned out to be a golden silk handkerchief, he looked puzzled, but he never dared to open it to see, how could anyone read the secret order of His Majesty the Emperor, it was a big crime to kill the head.

The generals defending the city were also suspicious of Xingzhe and Li Jun, so he didn't dare to open it to see, what if it was true? Then you're not doomed.

The general defending the city handed the golden silk handkerchief to a guard guarding the city next to him, and then whispered a few words in the ear of the guard guarding the city, and sent the guard to send it to the county order.

"I've already sent someone to the county magistrate to send it over, so I'll bother you to wait a little longer, but you still can't get close to Jizhou City."

The general defending the city was still standing in place like a sword, and the soldiers on the city wall did not let go of the bows and arrows in their hands, and it seemed that the general defending the city was still on guard against them.

Xingzhe admires this majestic general who guards the city, he seems to be a very frank, upright person, and he is also very thoughtful.

He didn't know if the golden silk handkerchief was real or fake, if it was true, it was easy to say, but if it was fake, it was said that Xingzhe and they could attack at any time.

He was not afraid of ten thousand, but he was afraid of what happened, so he had been vigilant against Xingzhe and them, in case Xingzhe and them suddenly attacked.

"Hey, it's not serious, can the secret order still be used like this?"

Xingzhe asked.

"Of course you can, that is not a secret order, the real secret order is what I dictated to you, that one is just a document, written for us to suppress the mob, in fact, the real role is to prove our identity."

Xingzhe nodded, he was not stupid, as soon as Li Jun explained this, he immediately understood everything. Not only sighed, the king of a country is the king of a country, and there are really some means.

"It's not serious, I feel like there's something wrong here."

"What's the problem?"

"There are problems all over Jizhou."

"How?"

"Have you noticed that along the way, we have only met these refugees outside Jizhou, but we have not seen anything in Jizhou, and it is too abnormal to be calm."

"Wouldn't it be nice to be calm?"

Li Jun was puzzled.

"No, we've all heard about the Jizhou refugee riot before, and bandits are rampant, but look at it now, it's too far from what we've heard, right?"

"It seems that this is indeed the case when you say this, it was too smooth along the way, and the most important thing is that we haven't even met a few villagers."

It's scary to think about!

If the information given to them by His Majesty the Emperor is correct, there should be many refugees in Jizhou, but they have not seen any refugees along the way.

So the question is, where did all these refugees go?

There is no way to be sure now, it seems that the water in Jizhou is very deep, and Xingzhe remembered that Yu Gui sent people to stop Xingzhe from exterminating the bandits, was it to protect him?

Thinking back to the past, Yu Gui has always wanted to win over Xingzhe, how could he be unfavorable to Xingzhe when Xingzhe has not yet made a choice?

It seems that Yu Gui wants to protect Xingzhe nine times out of ten, and even the son of the general of the auxiliary country will be so afraid, so what is the beginning of this gang of bandits?

What secrets are hidden in Jizhou?

Just as Xingzhe was meditating, the city gate suddenly opened, and a man who looked mature and steady walked out, and four people behind him carried a sedan chair, which seemed to be to welcome Xingzhe and the sedan chair they deliberately got off.

"Lord Shangshu, Lord General, blame the little one for not being well entertained, causing trouble to the two of you, and please don't remember the villain's ......."

The county commander was stunned when he saw the refugees under the protection of the army.

"What's wrong, Lord Prefectural? What are you so surprised to see? ”

Seong-cheol asked malicefully.

"That...... My lord, what happened to those refugees? Why in your army? ”

"You say they? They tried to steal our rations, and we caught them. ”

Xingzhe lied, his face did not change, his heart did not beat, and he said it as if it were true.

"My lord, if you don't do this, you will make it difficult to ...... Leave it to me, thieves, I'll take care of it for you, what do you think? ”

Xingzhe pretended to be hesitant, muttered to himself for a while, and then nodded.

"Well, in fact, we don't really want to trouble the county commander, because this matter is too tricky, I suspect that they are suspected of treason, and have already sent a message to Your Majesty, and we will bring them back to Your Majesty to confirm after a while. I'm really troublesome with it myself, so if the prefectural magistrate doesn't mind, then I'll leave it to you. ”

When the county order heard it, it was first stunned, and immediately reacted, these refugees are unacceptable. In Xingzhe's hands, he can still assassinate, but in his own hands, it will be over, and it is not killed, nor is it not killed.

Since these refugees have been accused of treason, it seems that this vanguard general should not believe their words, just find an opportunity to kill them all, and even if His Majesty the Emperor blames them, it will be the general's problem.

"Oh, look at my memory, our prison is full, and there's really no way to help you."

Xingzhe pretended to be disappointed and sighed.

"Hey, then don't bother the county magistrate, we'll just lock it up ourselves."
