"How do you know they're dead?"

The place was on the street, but it was blue and there was no one around, and it was clear that someone had deliberately cleaned the place.

These dozen dead soldiers are equivalent to third-rate masters in the military camp, Zhu Jiu has the poison of Yan Luosan in his body, and he can't use internal force either, and after barely killing a few with his skills, he hurriedly retreated with Jiang Cheng.

These dead soldiers didn't chase far, they just looked around, and after making sure that Zhu Jiu was hiding, they quickly withdrew.

When they left, they didn't even destroy the bodies on the ground.

After waiting for them to be completely unable to hear their movements, Xuanyuan Che took Zhu Jiu out of the store where he was hiding, and breathed a sigh of relief, "At the beginning, the grass people also offended some powerful people and were almost killed by the dead, so it is easy to recognize this group of people."

"Are they coming for you today?"

Zhu Jiu raised his eyebrows, asked without looking back, and quickly stepped forward to check on the dead soldiers.

The faces of these people were all destroyed, and it was clear that the people behind the scenes had already prepared, and it was expected that even if the corpses were left to her, she would not be able to find anything from these people.

And that's exactly what happened.

A slender and powerful hand suddenly picked up a badge and handed it to her, pointing to the pattern on the badge and said, "I'm afraid the general has misunderstood, these dead soldiers are not coming for the grass people, but for you."

Hearing this, Zhu Jiu looked at the pattern on the badge, but saw that the pattern on the badge was not anything else, but the pattern of the national flower of Gaoxin Country!

"How is that possible?"

Zhu Jiu was shocked in his heart, muttering on his face, unconsciously collecting these badges.

However, at this moment, a fierce sword qi suddenly attacked from behind him, and Zhu Jiu couldn't use his internal force, so he hurriedly avoided it, but he was a step too late.

Seeing that there were still dead soldiers ambushing here and preparing to take her life, and she was about to exchange her own life for one hand, a voice came from beside her: "Be careful!"

It was Jiang Cheng who subconsciously blocked a knife for her!

The tip of the knife entered the flesh and pulled out a blood stain, Xuanyuan Che's face suddenly turned pale, and he hurriedly escorted Zhu Jiu and retreated: "Go, someone wants to harm you!"

"Isn't it too late to leave at this time?"

A voice came from the front, it was actually Prime Minister Leng who came to support this side with people, and in the face of the dead man who assassinated Zhu Jiu, he was even more merciless, and directly ordered someone to kill him, without even leaving a living mouth.

"Cold phase!"

Almost instantly, a lot of things flashed through Zhu Jiu's mind, like some important clue, so fast that she didn't have time to grasp it.

When she only looked at the other party, she was a little vigilant in her eyes, and at the same time she helped Jiang Cheng, who was seriously injured, and witnessed Prime Minister Leng walking towards her.

I saw Prime Minister Leng staring at her with a smile: "I didn't expect General Zhu to be assassinated? If it weren't for the fact that he happened to pass through this place and heard the sound of fighting, I was afraid that General Zhu would die here today, right? However, General Zhu has always been strong in martial arts, why can't he even solve these little minions today?"

He naturally knew that Zhu Jiu was now highly poisonous.

After all, Leng Qingxiu stayed in the Xuanyuan Palace with her, and knew everything about Tuoba Ye.

Zhu Jiu's face was slightly gloomy: "There is Lao Lengxiang who invited a doctor to come over and treat Mr. Jiang."

Xuanyuan Che covered his chest, weakly supported by Zhu Jiu, but his eyes always fell on Prime Minister Leng Cheng's face, and there was murderous intent in his eyes.

This old puppet dared to make a move in front of Ah Jiu in front of him, it seems that he can't let him live through tomorrow!

Just as he was thinking about how to solve Prime Minister Leng Cheng, he saw that Prime Minister Leng had already searched for the same badge from the dead man as Zhu Jiu had gotten, and said with a serious expression: "Prime Minister Qi, this is a token of Gao Xin Kingdom, after investigation, these dead soldiers are all killers from Gao Xin Kingdom!"

"Gao Xinguo? Why did you suddenly target General Zhu Jiu?"

Prime Minister Leng Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was thinking, but his face showed a worried look, and said to Zhu Jiu: "General Zhu is frightened today, let's go back and rest quickly, this matter will be investigated by the prime minister, rest assured, the prime minister will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!"

Dignified Prime Minister, when is it right

Interested in investigating such a thing?

He obviously only needs to beckon, and many people will surrender to him and serve him.

"Ahem...... General, let's go back first."

Just when Zhu Jiu was about to take these dead soldiers away from Prime Minister Leng for investigation, the weakened Jiang Cheng had already spoken.

Seeing that his face was pale, he had indeed lost too much blood, and the situation was not good, Zhu Jiu could only temporarily suppress his thoughts, nodded to Prime Minister Leng Cheng, and immediately took Jiang Cheng back to the barracks.

Fortunately, this place was not far from the barracks, and Zhu Jiu immediately called a military doctor to treat him.

The military doctor looked at Xuanyuan Che's injuries and shook his head: "This gentleman is a little weak, and that knife almost hit the vital point, I'm afraid it will take a month of cultivation to recover."

"There's Dr. Law."

After Zhu Jiu sent him away, he sat down on the edge of Jiang Cheng's couch and looked at him with a frown: "Why did you block that knife for me? Don't forget, you're just a scholar with no martial arts, and if you're injured, you'll only die more easily than General Ben."

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Che smiled, raised his eyes to look at her, and said softly: "No matter how rough the general is, he is still a woman, and no matter how delicate and weak the grass people are, they are also men, at the moment of life and death, how can my dignified seven-foot man hide behind a woman to survive?"

Speaking of which, the last time Zhu Jiu was protected like this was the poisonous wine given by Xuanyuan Che to the female officials of the court under her crotch when she was her male favorite.

It's a pity that it was the person who took her life later who protected her in the first place.

But Jiang Cheng is different from him.

His eyes are clear, and he does everything with a kind of calmness and calmness, which makes people's heavy hearts feel a little lighter.

Yes, Zhu Jiu nodded: "Thank you for your help, what thank you want?" As long as General Ben can do it, he will satisfy you."

She doesn't like to owe favors.

What's more, it's a lifesaver.

"General, are you serious?"

Jiang Cheng seemed to come to life all of a sudden, his eyes were shining at her, and he propped up half of his body from the bed to stare at her: "If the general can really satisfy the grass people in everything, then ......."

Zhu Jiu waited patiently for him to continue.

If it is a gold, silver and jade thing, it is better to say that although she stayed in the Xuanyuan Palace a while ago, the Zhu family belongs to her property, and the rewards that Emperor Yan has given her over the years, she has not moved, but every year a part of it will flow out to the military camp to reward the soldiers.

So, the excess can be given to him.

However, Jiang Cheng blushed seriously and said, "Then ask the general to make a chestnut cake for the grass people."

"Chestnut cake?"

Zhu Jiu was stunned, this thing ...... She won't do it.

Although she is good at marching and fighting, she is an idiot who knows nothing about the kitchen and the back house.

In the past, it was good to have Xuanyuan Che by his side to help, but later without him, these things were handed over to his subordinates to do, and Zhu Jiu had never touched these.

For a moment, I couldn't help but hesitate to look at him: "Do you really want to eat the chestnut cake made by General Ben?"

"It's okay, the general just has to give it a try."

Xuanyuan smiled.

Helpless, Zhu Jiu had to agree, but he was a little funny in his heart, what kind of reward is just a chestnut cake?

This Mr. Jiang is interesting.
