Chapter 203: Peeling
Inside the tent, the lights trembled.
Jiang Zi'an's face changed greatly, because of horror and anger, his whole body was trembling uncontrollably, he pointed at Cheng Yu and asked him: "Lord Cheng Yu, do you also know about this matter? I am already willing to pay tribute to Liang Guo, why do you want to murder me Jiang Guo?"
Listening to Jiang Zi'an's words, Cheng Yu's face was indifferent, he stroked his beard lightly, and said: "Hehe, Dazai-sama, you are too naΓ―ve, don't you understand the truth of the law of the jungle? β
"That's right, we have already planned all this, we promised you to force King Jiang to agree to the merit competition between Jiang and Rong, and then take advantage of the exam to launch a mutiny, do you think our Rongguo is really helping you ascend to the throne of Jiang? Hehe, you are wrong, our original purpose was to take the opportunity to annex Jiang Guo, and you are just a pawn used by us. Huang Zheng took Cheng Yu's words and continued, his words showing the meaning of the conspiracy succeeding.
"You ......" Hearing this, Jiang Zi'an realized that he was being used, he hated the Rongguo people for deceiving him, and even more hated that he would believe the Rongguo people, "I'm so stupid to believe you despicable foxes." β
"You are indeed too stupid, stupid enough to really be the king of Jiang Guo, hehehe, if you are not so delusional, how can you be used by us?" Huang Zheng broke Jiang Zi'an's stupidity with one sentence.
That's right, it was Jiang Zi'an's delusional desire to become the king of Jiang Guo that made him lose his mind and was finally used by traitors.
Jiang Zi'an was heartbroken, he fell to his knees, beating his chest, the dream of becoming a king, he thought it was about to come true, however, only then did he realize that it was just a heart-wrenching nightmare. Now, this dream is sneering at him.
"Huh...... It's me who is stupid......"
Looking at Jiang Zi'an, who was kneeling on the ground, as if he was crazy, and even made people feel a little pitiful, Huang Zheng sighed, and then said: "I knew today, why did you bother in the first place? However, this is also your life, you can't escape after all, all this is within Mr. An Shice's plan." β
Hearing this, Jiang Zi'an raised his eyes, it turned out that this was all An Shice's strategy. Thinking about how he was grateful to An Shice before, thinking that he was really helping him, now thinking about it, he is really stupid as a pig, stupidly calculated, and still thanking others.
Looking at Jiang Zi'an's lost eyes, Huang Zheng added: "We promised Mr. An Shice that after the matter is completed, we will give him half of the territory of Jiang Guo, and Mr. An Shice is of course willing to give us advice." β
"Presumptuous, how can the territory of Jiang Country be ceded by you so arbitrarily. Hearing Huang Zheng's words about ceding Jiang Guo's land, it was like cutting half of the fat on the chopping board, Jiang Zi'an was immediately angry, he stood up, as Jiang Guo's courtier, he must not let outsiders rob his country's land.
That's right, even if I committed a big crime, I am still from Jiang. At this moment, I still have 2,000 city guards in the camp, and I must not let the Red Horse Talisman be snatched away.
"Someone is coming, ......" Immediately, Jiang Zi'an called loudly outside the tent.
"Hehe, don't scream, the soldiers around the camp tent have already been killed by us, your two cronies are now on the mountain of no return, no one can save you, obediently hand over the Red Horse Talisman, maybe, I can still consider sparing your life." β
"Don't think about it. Jiang Zi'an's face was resolute, he turned back, picked up the saber on the desk, and then pulled out his long sword, pointing at Cheng Yu, Huang Zheng and others, "I, Jiang Zi'an, am still the Dazai of Jiang Country, how can I obey your orders, I swear to death." β
"Look for death. As soon as Cheng Yu said coldly, Dong Cheng, the attendant behind him, made a decisive move, and swept out his right hand, like a pitch-black blade, which instantly penetrated Jiang Zi'an's heart, and the blood stained Dong Cheng's fingers red, and drops of bright red blood fell to the ground.
Jiang Zi'an's pupils widened, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his throat slidied, but he could only let out a helpless moan, and then in infinite self-blame and remorse, he gave away his life.
Dong Cheng withdrew his right hand, Jiang Zi'an fell to the ground softly, his eyes were white, and he couldn't close his eyes until he died, and he faintly heard his lips tremble, "King, I was wrong......"
Yang Ming and Liu Qianyu, who were hiding behind the camp tent, looked at this scene and suddenly gasped, but the two of them did not dare to make a sound, for fear of being discovered, they were so cautious, mainly because they were afraid of the attendant who killed Jiang Zi'an, the blow just now, although he did not exert much power, but still could not hide his terrifying strength, far beyond Yang Ming and the two.
After Jiang Zi'an's death, Huang Zheng stepped forward and groped his body carefully, and soon found the Red Horse Army's talisman from his chest.
Cheng Yu looked at the talisman, smiled with satisfaction, and then said, "The talisman has arrived, hurry up." β
Huang Zheng nodded at the command, and then shouted outside the tent, "Come in." β
As soon as the words fell, several people came in from outside the tent, and one of them was Wang Shi.
Wang Shi walked in tremblingly, obviously he was coerced, and when he saw Jiang Zi'an lying in a pool of blood, his face was immediately shocked, "Dazai-sama ......"
"Jiang Zi'an is dead. Huang Zheng said coldly, "Wang Shi, I know that you want to become a nobleman, and Jiang Zi'an once promised you that after you succeed, he will make you a nobleman." I can tell you now, Jiang Zi'an can promise you, and I Huang Zheng can also promise you, as long as you sincerely submit to my Rongguo, I will ask King Rong, crown you noble, and give you a hundred hectares of fertile land, are you willing?"
Wang Shi glanced at Jiang Zi'an, who was already dead, and pondered a little in his heart, Jiang Zi'an is dead, and the thing he promised me has come to naught, and I have helped him rebel, if King Jiang does not die, he will kill me, I can't stay in Jiang Country anymore, so it is better to take refuge in Rongguo.
I just want to be a nobleman and have my own land, no matter who this country is, whether it is Jiang Guo or Rong Guo, whoever can let me have wealth and nobility, I will be loyal to whomever I want. There is a way that if people do not do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed.
After pondering for a moment, Wang Shi immediately knelt down on his knees, faced Huang Zheng, kowtowed, and said, "I, Wang Shi, am willing to be loyal to Rongguo." β
Looking at Wang Shi, who was kneeling down and surrendering to Rongguo, Yang Ming couldn't help the anger in his heart, and clenched his right fist tightly, eager to crush Wang Shi's head.
"Wang Shi, you bastard, for the sake of wealth and wealth, you actually took refuge in Rongguo, I can't wait to pick your skin and eat your flesh......" Yang Ming scolded in his heart.
In the tent, Huang Zheng smiled with satisfaction, and then ordered Wang Shi: "Very good, now I am handing over something to you to do, and after the matter is completed, I will ensure that you are rich and noble." β
"Please give me my orders. Wang Shi raised his head and asked.
"This is the Red Horse Soldier Talisman, you are a student of Jiang Guo, and you will convey the order, I don't think it will arouse suspicion. You took the Red Horse Army Talisman, got up overnight, rushed to the Red Horse Army camp stationed on the border of Jiang State, and ordered it to withdraw troops to the country. β
Wang Shi took the talisman, but he was still a little concerned, and then said: "My lord, although there is a talisman of the Red Horse Army, the Red Horse Army has the heavy responsibility of defending the country, and I am worried that they will not easily evacuate the border." β
"It's okay, you just said that Jiang Zi'an launched a mutiny, and King Jiang was in danger, so he was ordered to rush back to China as soon as possible to protect the king. With this reason, coupled with the soldier talisman, the Red Horse Army had to believe it. Huang Zhengyin said with a smile, "After all, Jiang Zi'an's mutiny is indeed a thing." β
"My lord. Wang Shi said.
Huang Zheng's eyes turned to the few people behind Wang Shi, these people were the students of Rongguo, but they put on the armor of Jiang Guo's soldiers, Huang Zheng said: "Wang Zhen, you guys pretended to be Jiang Guo's soldiers, escorted Wang Shi all the way to the border, and after seeing the Red Horse Army pulling out the camp and retreating, immediately sent a message to our Rongguo army and ordered it to attack. β
Although Huang Zheng ordered this, in fact, there was another implicit meaning in this order, which was to let Wang Zhen and others monitor Wang Shi and ensure that he acted according to the order.
"Yes. Wang Zhen nodded and then smiled, "When our army invades Jiang Guo's country, while the Red Horse Army is retreating, launch a surprise attack from the rear, and we will definitely be able to annihilate the Red Horse Army in one fell swoop, and after destroying the Red Horse Army, Jiang Guo will be at your fingertips." β
"Hehe, without further ado, you guys leave at once. β
"Yes. β
After receiving the order, Wang Shi quickly left the camp accompanied by Wang Zhen and others, and then set off overnight and rode to the border.
"Now it's just a matter of waiting for my army to attack Jiang Guo. Huang Zheng said proudly.
"Huang Zheng, you can't be careless at this time, don't forget, Jiang Zi'an's city guard is still there. Cheng Yu reminded.
"What my lord said is that if Jiang Zi'an's two cronies return from the Mountain of No Return and see that Jiang Zi'an is dead, my lord, you and I will be in danger. Jing Cheng Yu reminded that Huang Zheng suddenly looked very worried. "My lord, why don't we leave overnight. Anyway, the Red Horse Talisman has already arrived. β
Hearing this, Cheng Yu was very calm, he smiled: "Hehe, don't worry about this, I have already thought of countermeasures, but you and I don't have to worry about it." β
After speaking, Cheng Yu turned to Dong Cheng and said, "Let's do it, let Huang Zheng see how powerful you are." β
Dong Cheng nodded, then stretched out his right hand, only to see countless points of light jump out, and then a flickering cold scissors were held in Dong Cheng's hand.
Scissors, this is exactly Dong Cheng's mental image, which belongs to the category of utensils and tools.
Dong Cheng picked up the scissors and walked to Jiang Zi'an's body, and then he actually used scissors to cut Jiang Zi'an's body and peeled off his skin bag entirely.
During the whole process, Dong Cheng's face did not change, and his hands were soaked with blood, like a skilled and cruel butcher, which was terrifying.
Yang Ming and Liu Qianyu looked at such a cruel scene in horror, and they covered their mouths tightly, for fear that the contents of their stomachs would not be able to help but spit out.
