The night deepened, like an undercurrent in the camp, getting darker and darker, adding a lot of depression and dreary to the heart.

Yang Ming walked out of King Jiang's tent and looked up at the deep darkness of the night, the night sky seemed to be floating with a thick layer of haze, so that the white moonlight was stained with a layer of ashes, and it fell on the ground of the camp in a gloomy way.

Yang Ming's brows furrowed slightly, a trace of worry floated in his heart, and he sighed, "Liu Chen has obviously been captured, why am I still so uneasy in my heart?"

Tonight, the young man has been restless in his heart, and he vaguely feels that something is not right, but he can't say what is wrong.

"Great, Brother Wang Shi, thanks to you this time, fortunately you heard the conspiracy between Liu Chen and the Rongguo people, so that we could capture Liu Chen in time and stop his rebellion. After Xin'er walked out of the camp, she was in a slightly better mood, and turned around and said to Wang Shi behind her.

Wang Shi bowed slightly, and said, "This is all the blessing of the king, it is because God does not help rebels and thieves like Liu Chen, so that I am fortunate to hear their conversation." ”

Hearing this, Xin'er smiled back, and at this time, the girl noticed that Yang Ming's face was solemn, and there were many worries between her eyebrows, so she asked, "What's the matter, Yang Ming? ”

Hearing Xin'er's question, Yang Mingcai came back to his senses, and then said, "It's nothing, I'm just a little worried about tomorrow's war." ”

The young man replied perfunctorily, because he didn't know what he was worried about, so he had to use the excuse that he would fight against the Rongguo people tomorrow.

"Well, now that Liu Chen has been captured and his military power has been confiscated, the rebellion has finally been resolved, and all that remains is to fight with the eight people of Rongguo tomorrow. Xin'er nodded and said, thinking of tomorrow's war, Xin'er's little face also floated a little solemn.

"By the way, county lord, speaking of tomorrow's eight-man battle, I was originally going to play, but now that I'm injured, I'm afraid I won't be able to play tomorrow's battle. Wang Shi covered his chest, his face was still very pale when he spoke, and said to Xin'er.

After being reminded by Wang Shi, Xin'er remembered that Wang Shi's injury would inevitably affect tomorrow's battle, and she couldn't help but make a small face, and said, "Oh, I almost forgot about this, if Brother Wang Shi can't play, what can I do?"

Yang Ming glanced at Wang Shi, and then said helplessly, "There is no way, I can only let Lin Dong replace Brother Wang Shi." ”

Just as Yang Ming and the others were talking, Dazai Jiang Zi'an and Wu Jian escorted Liu Chen down, and the two returned to King Jiang's big tent again, and were about to reply to King Jiang.

"Uncle Wang, you're back. Seeing Jiang Zi'an, Xin'er immediately saluted and greeted, "Where is Liu Chen?"

"Well, Liu Chen has been secretly detained, tomorrow I will send someone to escort him back to the national capital, and wait for a slow review in the future, if it is verified, Liu Chen really betrayed Jiang Guo, such a great crime of rebellion, Liu Chen will definitely die." Jiang Zi'an sighed heavily, and said with a sad face.

"Hmph, this is also his own sin. Xin'er pursed her mouth and said indignantly.

"By the way, Uncle Wang, we still have one more thing, Brother Wang Shi is seriously injured now and can't participate in tomorrow's eight-man battle with Rongguo, we want to let the student Lin Dong replace Brother Wang Shi. ”

"Well, that's exactly what I mean. Tomorrow I will explain the situation to the examiner in charge and ask him to be accommodating and change the participants. Jiang Zi'an nodded, agreed, and then turned to Wang Shi again, and said, "Wang Shi, Liu Chen's rebellion, you are an important witness, tomorrow I will send someone to let you go back to the national capital with Liu Chen to cooperate with the investigation." ”

"The students understand that it is all up to Dazai-sama's arrangement. Wang Shi nodded and said.

"Well, Wang Shi, you go to my tent with the guards to rest for the time being, there are some details, I will ask you later." After speaking, Jiang Zi'an ordered his guards to take Wang Shi away.

"County Lord, I still have to report to the king about Liu Chen, you still have a battle tomorrow, go back and rest early. ”

"Got it, Uncle Wang, let's go back. ”

After saluting, Xin'er, Yang Ming, and Wu Jian said goodbye to Jiang Zi'an and left King Jiang's big tent. After walking for a while, Yang Ming and Xin'er exchanged a few words, then said goodbye and went back to their tents.

Yang Ming walked slowly in the camp, and finally couldn't help the doubts in his heart, so he said to Wu Jian, "Uncle, I have always felt very strange in my heart about Liu Chen's rebellion. ”

Hearing this, Wu Jian raised his eyebrows lightly and asked, "What do you think is strange?"

"The weirdest thing is that the whole thing went so well. Yang Ming shook his head lightly, and said to Wu Jian with the doubts in his heart, "Wang Shi happened to hear the conspiracy between Liu Chen and the Rongguo people, and then happened to meet me and the county lord of Xin'er in the forest outside the camp, and then, through the county lord, we reported the matter to King Jiang, and then at this time, Liu Chen actually took the initiative to send it to the door, and was finally caught by the uncle." There must be too many coincidences in this whole thing. ”

Yang Ming suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, he felt that he and Xin'er and the others were like chess pieces, at the mercy of someone according to his intentions.

"There is some truth in what you said, is there anything else?" Wu Jian nodded slightly, his face still unchanged, and continued to ask Yang Ming.

"And Liu Chen's reaction, I also think it's very strange. If he really betrayed Jiang Guo ruthlessly and intended to rebel, how could he be so easily arrested? If it were me, he would definitely fight to the death, and the big deal would be to break the net. This is a great crime of rebellion, and once caught, it will definitely be death. "Look at .kankanxs.

"Rightly, I'm aware of that. When he attacked Wang Shi, although his fists were fierce and powerful, he did not have the slightest murderous aura, and his move was clearly to capture Wang Shi, not to kill him. Moreover, after being defeated by me, he quickly admitted defeat, unwilling to make unnecessary resistance, and did not look like a rebel at all. ”

"Could it be that uncle, do you also think that General Liu Chen was wronged?"

"Liu Chen and Wang Shi have their own opinions, someone must have lied, who do you think is lying?" After saying this, Wu Jian's eyes suddenly revealed a cold light, and he looked at Yang Ming coldly.

"This ......" looked at Wu Jian's questioning, Yang Ming didn't know how to answer, on the one hand, it was Liu Chen, although the young man and Liu Chen had only met a few times, but the young man felt that Liu Chen did not look like that kind of traitor, and on the other hand, Wang Shi, Yang Ming had known Wang Shi for a short time, but during this period, they teamed up to take the exam together, and entered the Mountain of No Return again, fought together, ate together, and could be said to be comrades-in-arms who had experienced life and death together, Yang Ming did not want to believe that Wang Shi would lie.

Because this lie is too heavy, whoever lies will betray Jiang Guo.

The young man shook his head, his face was embarrassed, he didn't know who to believe, so he raised his head, looked at Wu Jian, and said helplessly, "Uncle, I don't know, can you tell me who they are lying......"

"Hehe, you don't know, how can I know?" After saying this, Wu Jian took out the wine bag from his arms and took a long sip of wine, then Wu Jian raised his head, looked at the night sky that he was well informed, sighed, and said,

"Everywhere, there is a rebellion. ”

The cool moonlight fell on Wu Jian's sad face, he looked at the darkness in the distance, as if he recalled something sad, and his lazy eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of deep sadness.

This was the first time the young man had seen Wu Jian with such an expression, Yang Ming was inevitably a little worried in his heart, and called out softly, "Uncle, what's wrong with you......"

"Nothing, just remembering the bad past. After speaking, Wu Jian restrained the emotions on his face, and then said to Yang Ming, "It's late at night, go back and rest early." ”

Yang Ming was slightly stunned, and looked at Wu Jian leaving with some indifference, until his back disappeared into the camp.

The young man exhaled, helpless, so he had to go back to the camp to rest for the time being. After returning to the camp, Yang Mingxian conveyed to Lin Dong that he had replaced Wang Shi to participate in the eight-man battle, but he concealed the reason for Wang Shi's injury.

Although Lin Dong was a little hesitant, he was originally the kind of person with simple ideas, so he agreed without asking any more questions. It's just that Lin Dong's originally relaxed little face instantly became a lot heavier, thinking about it, he couldn't sleep well tonight.

......

Late at night, after Dazai Jiang Zi'an reported to King Jiang about the detention of Liu Chen, he left King Jiang's tent and hurried back to his tent.

Walking to the camp tent, Jiang Zi'an retreated from the guards outside the door curtain, and then entered the camp alone.

In Jiang Zi'an's tent, the high candle was bright, and there were several people guarding it, looking at the teacups on the table that had been drunk, thinking that they had been waiting for Jiang Zi'an for a long time.

Among them, three men who looked like generals in full armor were standing in the camp tent, they were Jiang Zi'an's cronies and the commander of the city protection army. Jiang Zi'an served as the Dazai of Jiang State, and was in charge of 10,000 city guards in the national capital.

The main army of Jiang State, in addition to the Red Horse Army, is the city guard, originally these two armies were led by the general Liu Chen and Dazai Jiang Zi'an respectively, however, after tonight's incident, Jiang Wang lost trust in Liu Chen, and the Red Horse Army Talisman was transferred to Jiang Zi'an, and now, these two armies are all in Jiang Zi'an's hands.

In addition to the three cronies and generals, there was also Wang Shi, who came to the camp early.

When they saw Jiang Zi'an coming back, they immediately saluted and said, "Congratulations to Dazai-sama, harvest the Red Horse Army Talisman." ”

It was Wang Shi who had already told them everything that had happened in King Jiang's tent.

"Hehe, now Dazai-sama, you are the most powerful person in Jiang Country. Wang Shi clasped his hands and said with a smile and flattery.

Hearing the compliments from his cronies and Wang Shi, Jiang Zi'an just smiled slightly and said, "Hmph, what is this, this is just the beginning." ”

"Dazai-sama, that's right. Liu Chen has been taken into custody, and the Red Horse Army is also under the command of Lord Dazai, and now there is no one in Jiang Guo who can stop you anymore. Dazai-sama, on your way to the throne, it can be said that all obstacles have been removed, just wait for tomorrow to get rid of King Jiang, and the world of Jiang Kingdom will belong to Dazai-sama. ”

The person who said this was none other than Huang Zheng, the envoy of Rongguo, who had been sitting in the tent. On the high position on the right side of Huang Zheng, there is also a richly dressed person, who is Cheng Yu, the envoy of the Liang State.

And in Jiang Zi's camp, there is the last girl, who is Su Buying.

Jiang Zi'an's gaze swept over Huang Zheng, and finally looked at Su Buying, a smug smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Haha, God bless, everything went very smoothly according to Mr. An Shice's plan." ”
