Chapter 705: Great Calamity Approaching Ludi

In just one night, the changes in the city of Jeju can be called earth-shattering.

The original relaxed and lively atmosphere was completely gone, and the number of soldiers and horses guarding and patrolling on the city gates and the streets in the city had increased by three times as many as before, and many people who wanted to go out to the streets were also strictly interrogated by these officers and soldiers, and they were not even allowed to go out of the alleys.

Even if this is the case, the large shops and houses in the area where the envoys were assassinated were directly blocked by officers and soldiers, and the relevant people were also brought back to the yamen one by one for strict interrogation.

It seems that in just one night, the whole city of Jeju has become a lot of rumors, the grass and trees are full of soldiers, and the government no longer trusts any ordinary people.

For a while, the people of the city were panicked, even if they were allowed to go out, they did not dare to go out on the street easily at this time, but stayed at home and accompanied their families.

Somehow, some rumors spread throughout the city, saying that several envoys and important people had been assassinated, either dead or wounded, and that if the assassin could not be found, the three armies would soon join forces to slaughter the whole of Jeju.

When such a story spread throughout Jeju, the panic of the people was even more difficult to contain, and even in the next two days, there were many incidents of gathering people to break out of the city.

However, these people's behaviors, which are not even a rabble, were strictly ordered and guarded against death by the officers and sabers, in addition to being killed on the spot, they could only be captured with their hands tied.

And this time the government was also ruthless, even if it caused some conflicts and dozens of people died, they didn't pay attention to it at all, and still imposed martial law in the whole city, and at the same time kept arresting and interrogating people, and took some suspicious people into the yamen and tortured them......

It's just that this approach did not allow them to find any breakthrough, let alone the whereabouts of any suspicious people, but made the situation in the city get further out of control.

When Sun Ning learned about the changes in the city in the past few days from the people around him, he was a little shocked: "They are really messy, do they really think that they can find out or force out the assassins and others based on this? The only consequence of this will be to mess with themselves, which will only make them lose control of Jeju faster!"

"Who's to say it's not? But it's a great thing for us." Zhao Qianzhe came to Sun Ning with a smile, and looked him up and down again, "Brother Li, it seems that your injuries have improved greatly."

"With Lao Zhao's concern, under the careful diagnosis and treatment of Dr. Xue, I feel that my injuries are indeed almost better, and at least I have a certain amount of self-protection." Sun Ning hurriedly got up and saluted.

Since he went out to meet Tian Jian that night, and explained his "intentions" and what he was going to do next, Sun Ning has been recuperating from his injuries, and he has not even gone out in the small cross-courtyard where he is. It's a posture where you don't care about anything.

"You're not completely healed, sit down, don't be polite." Zhao Qianzhe was quite polite to Sun Ning, and as he spoke, he pulled him to sit down.

Then he said with a solemn expression, "I came today because I have an important matter to discuss with you, and I plan to leave Jeju in the next day or two."

"Huh? Did something happen again?" Sun Ning hurriedly asked. The expression on his face was quite consistent with the surprise in his heart, but his thoughts were different, and for only a few days, the Zonghenghui had not been able to find a chance to act.

"Yes, there has been definite news that the Ghost Rong and the Liangzhou army are all assembling towards the border of Ludi, and it is clear that they are about to attack and kill. Jeju, as the top priority of Ludi, will naturally become the primary target of the two-way army. So it's not a safe place to stay."

Sun Ning's expression changed again: "So fast?" He originally thought that the three parties would have to wait for ten days and a half months to make trouble, but he didn't expect them to be so decisive this time, and they really didn't have any worries at all.

Then he frowned: "Then what should we do?" Will the soldiers and horses of the Pingtian Army also kill them?"

"I'm afraid it's too late." Zhao Qianzhe shook his head with a heavy face, "I won't hide it from you, we didn't have the intention of forcibly taking Lu Di at the beginning, we just wanted to achieve our goal by putting pressure on King Lu and them, so it will take time for the troops and horses to be mobilized."

At this time, he did have

regarded "Li Ji" as a confidant, so he didn't hide it in important matters, and looked directly at the other party and said, "In this way, Jeju will definitely not be able to take it, I want to take advantage of the situation to leave here and go to Qingju." Brother Li, would you like to go with me?"

Sun Ning's mind also quickly turned to the idea, staying in Jeju, of course, he could burn the fire more vigorously and fish in troubled waters. Moreover, there are also known and well-known field thresholds available, so that you will not fight alone.

However, the danger must be greater than that of Qingzhou, and once Zhao Qianzhe and the others withdraw at this time, their follow-up plans will inevitably fail, and staying here will indeed be too much to gain and lose.

After such calculations, the conclusion naturally appeared, and Sun Ning had a look of emotion and righteousness on his face: "Zhao Gongzi already has a life-saving grace for me, and I also promised you to repay this kindness, how can you give up halfway?"

"Since you don't give up, don't say that I just go to Qingzhou with you, it is the sword mountain and the sea of fire, Longtan Tiger's Den, and I, Li Ji, will follow me around!"

"Well, I didn't misread you!" Zhao Qianzhe was also overjoyed, and stepped forward to pat Sun Ning's shoulder hard, "From now on, you and I will be our own brothers, sharing blessings and difficulties!" You and I are called brothers, you are older than me, I call you brother, you call me brother."

Sun Ning didn't show any politeness, and grinned, "Virtuous brother!"

"Big brother!" Zhao Qianzhe laughed again, "Speaking of which, I actually have a few brothers, but in terms of feelings, none of them can compare to you, the big brother!"

Sun Ning's heart moved, and he confirmed his previous guess, and said, "I can't remember who I really am anyway, just as you are really my brother. No, you and I are brothers!"

"Well said, we're brothers." Zhao Qianzhe was even more determined, this Li Ji's ability he had seen with his own eyes, and in such a dangerous situation, he was able to protect himself, and if he took him, he would naturally be more sure and safer to go to Qingzhou.

"Without further ado, let's go. At the city gate, I have already taken care of everything, and while the government is still busy finding out what the real culprit is, and I don't know that a foreign enemy is coming, we will leave this place!"

Sun Ning nodded yes, stood up, and followed Zhao Qianzhe straight out, he didn't have the slightest nostalgia for everything else in this room.

But just as the two of them came to the carriage in the atrium, and were about to board the carriage, there was a sudden noise outside, and then they saw a guard come to them with a strange look, and said in a low voice: "Childe, Song Qiyun of the Liangzhou Army said that he wanted to see you to discuss important matters!"
