Jiang Xianzhi was surrounded by hundreds of people, and the general who came from behind said coldly: "Lord Jiang Xiang, it is better to persuade you to surrender, the palace of thieves orders you to arrest, even if you run to the ends of the earth, you will be arrested back! Open your eyes and take a good look, have you beaten so many people, so don't do useless protests, the palace of thieves is the king of benevolence and righteousness, as long as you honestly explain the problem, confess your accomplices, and help the palace to eliminate the traitors, not only will you not be convicted but will also be rewarded, think about it!"

Jiang Xianzhi's eyes flashed, and he suddenly raised his two hands holding the talisman high, and said, "You don't come to lie to me, I know very well what crime I have committed, and surrendering is only a dead end!"

The general sneered: "The surname Jiang, with the fourth-level talisman in your hand, what can you do?" Listen to my advice, as long as you confess your accomplices, I will promise you with my own personality that I will definitely beg the Palace of the King of Thieves to spare you from death." ”

In the building not far away, Ge Zhengliang pulled out the dagger on his waist, and Ding Yuanlang stretched out his hand to stop him: "What are you going to do?"

Ge Zhengliang replied: "I don't worry about Jiang Xianzhi, if he dares to surrender, I will rush up and kill him!"

"Ridiculous, surrounded by hundreds of people, can you succeed?" Ding Yuanlang said in a deep voice: "Even if you can kill him, you will be in prison again, is it worth it, do I have to rush over and kill you?"

Ge Zhengliang shook his head: "Of course not, I will commit suicide immediately after killing him, and I will definitely not give them a chance to catch him alive." ”

Ye Yunyang opened his mouth and said: "This kind of practice is very unwise, if you die, they can still find out to us, so it is meaningless." Don't be impatient, Jiang Xianzhi hasn't surrendered yet, maybe there will be a chance to save the situation, we must not mess up. ”

said this, but in fact, he didn't have any bottom in his heart, and believed that it was not only the North City Gate that was blocked, but the whole city. No one will tolerate betrayal of themselves, and the King of Thieves will be no exception, and what will ensue will be a purge of the lurkers.

On the street, the general saw that Jiang Xianzhi was silent, and the hand holding the talisman began to tremble, and said with a smile: "It's better to die than to live, anyway, you can't escape, those accomplices of yours didn't save you, which means that you have been abandoned, why bother to keep secrets for them?

Jiang Xianzhi seemed to be shaken, and said, "You let me think about it, don't come here, otherwise I will use the talisman!"

The general waved his hand, and the soldiers at the front of the encirclement took five steps back at the same time, but at this moment, Jiang Xianzhi suddenly activated the talisman, and lightning fell from the sky, knocking the retreating soldiers to the ground, and screams were everywhere.

"Bastard, Ben will capture you himself!" the general jumped from his horse.

Looking at Jiang Xianzhi again, he quickly pulled out the long sword at his waist and slammed it on his neck, and with the action of wiping his neck, his head turned to Ye Yunyang's position.

Plasma gushed out, Jiang Xianzhi had a smile in his eyes, as if he was saying that he would not be a traitor even if he died, and the long sword fell to the ground with a bang, and then he also fell from the horse.

The general fell from the sky, reached out to his neck, shook his head, and said, "The gods can't be saved." ”

In the small building, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief, although Jiang Xianzhi's death could not completely solve the problem, but at least it helped them get through the current crisis.

Ye Yunyang said in a deep voice: "No matter whether this mission is successful or not, Jiang Xianzhi will not die in vain, and I will play Emperor Ming to restore his identity and care for his family." ”

Ding Yuanlang sighed and said: "I didn't expect him to be a person with a strong personality, who chose to commit suicide in order to keep a secret, which deserves our respect." ”

Ge Zhengliang returned the knife into the sheath, and said in a flat tone: "If I encounter the same situation, I will make the same choice, and I would rather die than be a traitor." ”

The three of them looked at each other and quickly left.

In the Second Army Division's Mansion, Ye Yunyang described in detail what happened before, and Chen Muyang let out a sigh: "It's really thrilling, fortunately, we are fast enough, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Ye Yunyang nodded and said: "Yes, we are already careful enough, Mei thought that there would be a traitor again, and the time of appearance was very unfavorable for us, just in time for the masters and helmsmen of each hall to be in the City of Thieves, and the King of Thieves could control everyone like a sheep, and he could always find some clues." ”

This is the most worrying point, if everyone does not gather in the City of Thieves, but is stationed in their respective territories, first of all, it will increase the difficulty of the investigation, and secondly, you can do the self-respect of the army, and the waist pole of the soldier in your hand will naturally be hard, you say that I am a traitor, I also said that you are a traitor, and you are not satisfied with each pulling out the team to fight!

"It was I who advised you to continue to awaken the lurkers that led to this outcome, so the responsibility lies with me. Chen Muyang said regretfully.

"Now is not the time to hold accountable, but how to get through it. Ye Yunyang said in a deep voice: "The big war is coming, it is impossible for the king of thieves to tolerate traitors under his command, we must think of a perfect strategy, not only to ensure everyone's safety, but also to ensure that the things we did before go smoothly." ”

Chen Muyang smiled bitterly: "It's too difficult, he will definitely take tough measures to investigate, anyone who has doubts will become the object of suspicion, and it is difficult for us to get out of the way." ”

Ye Yunyang was silent, the development of the matter was beyond his control, he could only take one step at a time, and see the move.

The Royal Palace, the Hall of Justice.

The king of thieves was ready to interrogate Jiang Xianzhi in person, but in the end, he got the news that he committed suicide in public, and slapped the general in the face angrily: "What are you eating, as a martial artist of the Tongyuan Realm, let a person in the early stage of the Mingqi Realm commit suicide in front of you, and have the face to come back to restore his life?"

The general knelt on the ground: "It's incompetent! I think I can persuade Jiang Xianzhi to surrender, and he also shows the intention of surrendering, who wants to ...... in the end?"

"Enough, no amount of explanation can hide your incompetent nature!" The king of thieves was still very angry, and was just about to give an order to Song Wenshan to go to the palace, when the old eunuch hurriedly ran in and shouted: "The palace is not good, Song Wenshan is dead." ”

"What?" said the King of Thieves angrily.

The old eunuch replied resignedly: "His carriage was found in a cul-de-sac, and he had been stabbed to death with a sword, and it was his own sword." ”

The king of thieves was furious: "Check, who knows about this? Song Wenshan was assassinated as soon as he told the king, and Jiang Xianzhi fled to the gate of the city before being stopped, someone must have leaked the secret! Not a single person in the study just now should be spared, and they were all arrested and severely interrogated. ”

The old eunuch frowned and said, "Palace, there is one more thing that the slave doesn't know whether to talk about or not. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, say something quickly. "The king of thieves was a little impatient.

"Qiqi Palace, when you met Song Wenshan in the study just now, the Second Army Division once came to the door of the study and was stopped by me. The old eunuch said cautiously.

The king of thieves raised his eyebrows: "What is he doing here?"

"Report to you the progress of today's work, and say that the whole plan against the enemy can be completed tomorrow, because there are guests in your study, so he is gone, and the minions will bring you a message. The old eunuch said.

"Did the Second Army Division hear my conversation with Song Wenshan?" asked the thief again.

The old eunuch shook his head: "The slave is not sure, but he shouldn't have heard it, he stayed at the door for a few seconds, he wouldn't be so lucky to hear it, right?"

According to Song Wenshan, the Han Empire began to send people to Nanshan decades ago, all of whom were talents from one in a million, and many of them were already in important positions, which was the most terrifying.

I wanted to catch Jiang Xianzhi and then touch the melons and find out all the other lurkers, Jiang Xianzhi and Song Wenshan's death is equivalent to cutting off the clues, and no clues means that everyone is suspicious, from the military advisor to the helmsman and the incense master, they may all be traitors.

No wonder the Emperor of the Han Dynasty was able to endure for so long, and did not launch a large-scale war against Nanshan for decades, he was waiting for the spies to take control of the core positions, and the so-called World War I to solve the Nanshan problem was by no means empty talk.

"Go and call the Fourth Army Division to come over. "The king of thieves has made a decision, such a big matter must be handed over to someone trustworthy to deal with.

The reason why Chai Jiangtao, the division of the Fourth Army, can become the first choice is because he is the younger brother of the king of thieves, and his own family can certainly trust him.

The two brothers sat in the secret room, Chai Jiangtao frowned and listened to his brother's words, and said with doubts: "It's so strange, how can there be a traitor at this juncture?"

The King of Thieves frowned: "What do you mean, what suspicions do you have?"

Chai Jiangtao shook his head and said: "I can't say it well, I just think it's very strange, anything can happen when the big war is imminent, I doubt that this is the strategy of the Han Emperor, the purpose is to make us mess up." ”

The king of thieves waved his hand and said: "Impossible, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty is so shrewd, how can he use such a small trick, if our generals can stand the test, what effect can such a strategy play?"

Chai Jiangtao nodded and said: "Also, groundless wind can only play a small role, and it will not have any impact on the overall situation, since Brother Wang believes that there are traitors, I should do my best to thoroughly investigate this matter and give Brother Wang a satisfactory explanation." ”

The king of thieves was very pleased and said: "This king can only trust you now, you have to hurry up and investigate all the people, especially those who later took refuge in Nanshan, they are more likely to be spies than the native Nanshan." In order to facilitate your investigation, this king gives you the right to mobilize the palace guards and the soldiers who defend the city, from the national teacher to the incense lord and the school captain, don't let go of any of them, all of them will be investigated clearly by this king. ”

Chai Jiangtao frowned and asked, "How to deal with those who are suspicious but don't have full evidence?"

The king of thieves didn't want to think about it and said: "I'd rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one, this king will never hand over the army to a problematic general." ”

At an extraordinary time, the city gate was blocked, and no one was allowed to enter or exit, and the king of thieves decided to reward those who reported spies, and did not blame those who had lost their way and voluntarily surrendered.

A purge is brewing, and everyone has a knife hanging over their heads, not knowing when it will be cut.
