Inside a carriage of the combined forces of Zanmun and Sayi, Dangji. Waye said to Li Hongjiang beside him with a happy face:

"Elder Li, Pang Yinli has confiscated all the Gu villages in southern Xinjiang and released a large number of Gu worms to cause chaos, and half of the army stationed at the border pass of Da Chu went out to southern Xinjiang to quell the Gu chaos, this is a great time for us."

Dangji. Waye thought that Pang Yinli was dead, but what he didn't expect was that Pang Yinli made such a big move in southern Xinjiang, which was really unexpected.

On the other hand, Li Hongjiang's expression was quite indifferent, not like Dangji. Waye was so happy, but slowly spoke: "Dachu is a large land with a large population and a large population, if the Zhenbei army is allowed to escape into the pass, it will not be easy to conquer the border pass. ”

"Elder Li, you can rest assured, before the Zhenbei Army arrives at the border pass, we will definitely be able to catch up with them, and we can count on you to show your skills at that time."

Dangji. Valle rubbed his hands together, revealing a look of victory.

Their spies kept a close eye on the movements of the Zhenbei Army, and according to the footsteps of the Zhenbei Army, they could catch up in two days at most.

In this vast steppe, there is no doubt that the armies of Zanmun and Sayi were more advantageous.

After the Zhenbei Army is taken, the border pass will lose a big battle force, which will naturally be more beneficial for them to capture the border pass.

"Show off your skills? Why did you let me, a spell master, show off my skills in front of a nine-rank martial cultivator? He could have killed me with one punch. ”

Li Hongjiang was a little impatient, in his opinion. Valle's idea was undoubtedly sending him to his death.

Dangji. Waye realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly changed his words: "Then you can contain the king of Zhenbei in the dark, and I will meet him then." ”

"Hmph, that's pretty much it." Li Hongjiang's expression softened a little, and then asked, "By the way, how did you do that thing?" ”

Dangji. Waye smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, the person has already arrived in Chujing, and he will do it in a few days." ”

Li Hongjiang bowed slightly, "Well, if you can, it's better not to clash with the Zhenbei Army as much as possible." ”

……

At the same time, in the city of Chujing.

A man in a black robe hid in an alley, quietly staring at the imperial city not far away.

After a while, the man withdrew his gaze and walked straight into the small courtyard on the side.

In the courtyard lay a disemboweled couple, and the man ignored the situation, locked the door, and sat cross-legged in the middle of the room, entering a meditative state.

Time flew by quietly, and before I knew it, it was late at night.

The man glanced at the moonlight outside the window and pulled out a dagger from his bosom.

The dagger was not made of iron, but a bone dagger of an unknown animal.

In the darkness, the bone dagger exuded a faint green light, which was extremely eerie.

Immediately, I saw the man swing the bone dagger and cut it towards his wrist without hesitation.

The next moment, blood splattered from his wounds, and the man hurriedly dipped the bone dagger in blood and carved it on the ground.

After a while, something similar to the formation was depicted, and the man at this time was also pale, obviously on the verge of death.

He lifted the last of his strength and sat cross-legged in the middle of the formation, then tilted his head and lost his life.

After another quarter of an hour, a man also wearing a black robe appeared in the house, the man took the bone dagger, and then released the Gu worm to destroy the body of the black-robed man who had died, and the formation on the ground was also wiped out, leaving no trace.

After looking around the house, the man walked out of the house and disappeared in the night.

In the early morning of the next day, a bombshell news came out in the imperial city, and the son of the king of Zhenbei died mysteriously in the imperial city.

When he went to the court, Chu Ying was furious about this, saying that he wanted to investigate the murderer thoroughly, but most officials thought that this was a warning from the court to the king of Zhenbei.

This method is not uncommon in all dynasties, but it is obviously not a wise move to kill the son of the king of Zhenbei at this juncture.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the enemy army killed the son of the king of Zhenbei in order to provoke the relationship between the imperial court and the king of Zhenbei, and these conjectures can only be concluded after investigation.

After going to the court, Chu Ying gave Qin Mian and Lu Yanqing separate voices, explaining the killing of Qin Mian's son.

Lu Yanqing was shocked when he learned of this, and hurriedly got out of the carriage and walked briskly towards Qin Mian.

I saw that Qin Mian was holding the transmission note from Chu Ying at this time, and his face was gloomy and terrifying, which made Lu Yanqing shudder.

Although he was afraid that Chu Ying would take his anger on him for this matter, Lu Yanqing still greeted him and said, "Lord Zhenbei, I already know the situation of Chu Jing, please pay a silent tribute." ”

Hearing this, Qin Mian slowly raised his head and asked Lu Yanqing, "Do you say this is the hand of the imperial court, or the hand of Zanmeng and Sayi?" ”

Lu Yanqing didn't dare to respond for a while, but he was still more inclined to be with the court in his heart.

In the end, Lu Yanqing still opened his mouth to give his opinion: "I think this should be the enemy's hand, in order to make you break with the imperial court, so that they can continue to attack south." ”

As soon as these words came out, Qin Mian's gaze suddenly became fierce, and the strong murderous aura made Lu Yanqing feel a tingling in his skin.

"Is it possible that the court moved it? In order to take advantage of this opportunity to plant false accusations to the enemy army, and as soon as I enter the pass, I can remove from my Zhenbei King, and then find someone else to take my place? ”

Faced with Qin Mian's words, Lu Yanqing was speechless, because before the results of the investigation came out, all inferences were difficult to judge.

"Redirect! Go to Linxi City! ”

Qin Mian suddenly shouted loudly, Lu Yanqing couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and asked out loud: "Lord Zhenbei Wang, what are you going to do?" ”

"Naturally, I want to get justice for my son who died tragically!" Qin Mian gritted his teeth and said, his eyes were bloodshot, so it was not difficult to see that Qin Yi was Qin Mian's weakness.

"But you changed direction so suddenly, if you were caught up by the enemy, it would inevitably be a fierce battle!"

Lu Yanqing continued to persuade Da Chu that now Da Chu was at a critical juncture, if something happened to the Zhenbei Army, then Da Chu's situation would be extremely bad.

But at this time, Qin Mian could still listen to Lu Yanqing's words, and said sonorously: "If you want to fight, you will fight, really if I am afraid of them, I can't do it?" My son's matter has to come to a conclusion, otherwise I don't believe anything. ”

Seeing this posture, Qin Mian was determined to let the imperial court give him an explanation, Lu Yanqing and Hao continued to persuade him, so he could only follow Qin Mian towards Linxi City, paying attention to Qin Mian's movements, lest Qin Mian do something stupid.

Lu Yanqing informed Chu Ying of the situation here, and after Chu Ying got Lu Yanqing's transmission, he sent bad people to investigate the matter quickly, and the war on the front line was not a joke......
