Chapter 398: Still Here
"She, the woman with magical foresight?"
"Yes!"
"Could it be a plan set up by Qin Yueran?" Xiao Xiao said.
"No, I'm sure of that." Wang Hou said, I'm afraid that only he and Su Yunqing know about the events of that day, and Su Yunqing will not tell her about this matter, after all, this is equivalent to her trump card means to save her life.
Before leaving, the prince made arrangements for the camp, and made a phone call to Boss Wei overnight, asking him to pay attention to the movements of Lancheng and Chang'an, contact the camp at any time if there is a problem, and ask him for two items at the same time.
On this night, the moon and stars are scarce.
The prince set out from Chang'an, shuttled thousands of miles, and rushed to Jinling.
In the early morning of the second day, the first rays of sunlight shone on a heavy city, Jinling, an ancient city that has experienced thousands of years of wind and rain, is bathed in the morning light at this time, revealing a little mild in the thickness, like an old man in the twilight.
The prince stood on a hill not far away, looking at the city where he had stayed for a short time not so long. The entrance was heavily guarded, and from time to time heavily armed warriors could be seen patrolling the city, which seemed to be much tighter than when the prince left.
"It looks like the whole city is under martial law!"
A gust of wind blew, and the prince's figure disappeared from the hill.
In Jinling City, the soldiers in charge of duty have just finished handing over, and the soldiers are ready to go back to their residences to rest after being tired all night last night.
"Hey, do you feel anything strange?"
"What?"
"It always feels like someone is following us?"
"Where is someone, you must have been too tired last night, go back to rest early, right?"
"Hmm. These days are martial law all day long. Patrol the city. I'm tired to death. ”
An alley that is not too narrow, if it is in normal times, there must be a lot of pedestrians here, but after the outbreak of the virus, in fact, such an alley is full of dangers, because there is a high probability of mutants such as mutant rats here, even in a city like Jinling, there is no complete solution to all the mutants in Dingcheng. Although the warriors in the city were cleaning almost every day, they could not sweep underground, and they could only enclose a relatively safe place to live despite their best efforts.
If it weren't for the sake of going home early and seeing his wife and children earlier, he wouldn't be willing to take the risk.
"Hey, what's the rush to leave in such a hurry!"
A voice suddenly came from the alley, like a ghost.
"Who?" The warrior suddenly stopped his steps, raised the spear in his hand, and the hairs trembled all over his body. His face was pale, and he had already glanced at the not very long alley before he entered. No one was in there, why was there a sudden sound at this time.
A man walked out of the shadows in the corner, wearing a combat uniform that could be seen everywhere in Jinling City, but he looked a little younger, but he was in his twenties.
"Whew, scare me!" The soldier breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the man who was also in military uniform.
"Come on, I'll treat you to breakfast and talk by the way!"
"Hey, it's more appropriate for someone like Xiao Xiao to do something like obtaining intelligence!" Although he also got the news he wanted from the mouth of the warrior, but thinking about the process of obtaining it, the prince felt a little uncomfortable.
He learned from the soldier's mouth that Ma Chongyun, commander of the Jinling Military Region, had been assassinated, political commissar He Xiaosong had been seriously wounded, and that the actual controllers of Jinling City were Chen Dongluo, former chief of staff of the Jinling Military Region and now acting commander temporarily, and Feng Xiaoting, mayor of Jinling City.
"He Xiaosong was seriously injured, but he didn't die, this matter is a bit strange, but it seems that they are the one who was abandoned by the capital, in that case, let's go to him first to find out, right?"
The He family in Jinling used to be one of the most wealthy families in this majestic city, and countless people broke their heads and wanted to go in to visit, but now it is deserted, like a cemetery, when the prince approached his small courtyard, he found that there were actually four watchmen around it, monitoring the entire residence from four different directions, east, west, north and south.
"It seems that some people are still not at ease with them, so why don't you just kill them, and save a lot of trouble."
Bokeh!
The prince's body directly turned into nothingness, and even an awakened person of the fourth-level spiritual perception class could not perceive his existence in this state.
Crunch, the door of the villa opened a crack, as if it had been blown open by the wind.
Jingle bells, a gust of wind chimes ring.
In the bedroom of the He family, there was a pale and thin-cheeked sixty-year-old man lying on the wide bed, he was in a coma at this time, and on one side of the bed sat a man and a woman, with sad faces, these two were the second eldest of the He family, He Yingxiong and He Wan, they were worried about their father's injury, the whereabouts of their eldest brother, and the situation of the He family.
"Otherwise, I'll go find Chen Weichuan, doesn't he just want me to marry him, I'll just agree!" He Wan's voice was full of helplessness and sadness, no one thought that the He family, who had been calling for wind and rain in Jinling City, would actually fall back to today's step, not to mention taking the initiative to help, now Jinling City does not even have a person to speak for them.
"Do you think that now he really just wants to marry you, he values the power of our He family in Jinling, and it is those generals in the army who do not speak for us, but still think of us in their hearts, he just wants to put pressure on us and make concessions to us." He Yingxiong said in a deep voice.
"Then what should we do, the eldest brother's life and death are unknown now, and my father is like this, are we just waiting?"
"Maybe we can talk." At this moment, suddenly a voice sounded.
"Who?!" The brother and sister got up almost at the same time, looking in the direction from which the voice came, but saw a familiar face.
"It's you, why are you here?!"
They never imagined that this person would suddenly appear here, as if they had seen a wooden house exuding warmth in the middle of the endless wasteland. It's like seeing an oasis in the middle of the yellow sand. It was life and hope.
"General Wang. How did you end up here?! ”
"I'm here to do an important thing, I originally wanted to ask you some questions, it seems that you're in a lot of trouble, what's wrong with General He?" The one who suddenly appeared in the He family's bedroom was the prince.
"He was badly wounded, and he was severely poisoned." Seeing this man who suddenly appeared, He Wan didn't know why, but suddenly felt a burst of excitement for no reason, and at the same time, the heart that had been worried just now was also put down in an instant. It's as if this person can solve a problem as soon as he appears.
"Maybe I can try." The prince then immediately took out a third-level antidote potion, a third-level healing potion, and a third-level recovery potion, and then asked He Wan to give them to He Xiaosong respectively, but the three potions were only a few minutes after taking them, and He Xiaosong, who had been in a coma before, actually woke up miraculously, and his originally pale and ugly face was much better.
"You are?" He Xiaosong was also taken aback when he saw the prince, "Am I still in a dream?" ”
"Of course not, I set off last night and galloped all the way from Chang'an to Jinling. I came here this time to have important things to do, but I didn't want the situation in Jinling to change abruptly. It's not as good as before, so I want to inquire about the current situation in Jinling, and I asked a soldier before, but his knowledge of the situation is really limited, so I came to General He, how is it, do you feel better? ”
"Much better, thank you!"
In the following conversation, the prince learned from He Xiaosong and He Yingxiong about the earth-shaking changes that have taken place in Jinling City in the past few days, although it is thousands of miles away from Lancheng, but the general context of what happened is the same, Jinling sent to the capital to participate in the meeting is a general, this general is Ma Chongyun's right-hand man on the surface, but in fact he is Chen Dongluo's person, what kind of experience he had in the capital This no one knows, But when he came back, he also brought back three representatives of the capital, and secretly met with Chen Dongluo, and then suddenly made a move at a small-scale high-level meeting, launched a thunderous blow, and killed Ma Chongyun on the spot, He Xiaosong was also seriously injured, if it wasn't for Chen Weichuan's intercession, I am afraid that the He family would not be able to escape the fate of being killed at this moment.
"I remember that Commander Ma still has Mu Shenlong next to him, with him, those people are afraid that they won't be able to succeed for a while, right?"
"They specifically lured Mu Shenlong out before they acted."
"It seems that the preparation is very sufficient, and the situation is the same as that of Lancheng!"
"What, something like this happened in Lancheng?!" He Xiaosong was taken aback when he heard this.
"Well, Pang Yuanzhi, commander of the Lancheng Military Region, and Lan Zecheng, the political commissar, were also assassinated a few days ago, and Xiao Yuanwang, the chief of staff, acted as the commander to lead the military affairs of Lancheng, but now the situation has changed a little."
After staying in the He family for a while, the prince felt that he had gotten the news he wanted to know, so he said goodbye and left, and before leaving, the three members of the He family asked him to inquire about the news of He Huaiyue.
After leaving the He family, the prince came to the Chen family not far from here, that is, the actual controller of Jinling City, which is different from the desertion of the He family, three steps and one post outside the Chen family, five steps and one sentry, and the defense soldiers checked at all levels, and strangers did not say that they went in, but it was very difficult to get close to the Chen family compound.
"I don't know where Su Yunqing is being held, will it be in the Chen family's compound?!"
After observing outside for a while, the prince decided to wait until the evening and go inside to see what was going on.
The waiting time always passed very long, and in the process of waiting, the prince saw an acquaintance, Chen Weichuan of the Chen family, the third-generation core disciple of the Chen family who had been extremely hostile to him. At this time, his tasks are heavy and numerous, and he needs to deal with a lot of things, after all, although the Chen family is also a Jinling clan, but what they do is contrary to the general righteousness, and among the troops, Ma Chongyun and He Xiaosong have many descendants, so they need to be treated carefully, Chen Dongluo deals with these people mainly with a gentle heart, rather than killing anyone who does not listen like Xiao Yuanwang in Lancheng, although the effect may be worse for a while, but in the long run, this is undoubtedly a better method.
