Chapter 182: The Lost Prince
Looking at Chai Qizhi, who was lying in a pool of blood like a dead dog, Jiang Chen's face turned pale.
He secretly sighed: You unlucky bastard really deserve it, it was originally a matter of a sword, but in the end you were to be cleansed before you died, isn't this a crime in vain?
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen's gaze glanced down at Chai Qizhi's crotch again, and he suddenly felt an inexplicable pain hit his heart.
This woman, it's better not to provoke.
However, Shen Xueying was like no one, seeing that she was so skillful in the way she used the sword just now, it was hard not to suspect that it was not the first time she had done this to a man.
After killing Chai Qizhi, Jiang Chen asked Shen Ke to sprinkle all the jars of white sorghum wine prepared in advance on the corners of the house, and finally burned them.
It's a liquor store, and finding some spirits isn't a hard task at all.
Chai Qizhi was having fun with a beautiful woman in the house, but accidentally set fire to the bed tent, causing happiness and sadness, which sounded unreasonable.
The raging fire set off a boiling heat wave, and the wooden doors, windows, beams and pillars of the wine store began to crackle......
Jiang Chen walked outside and shouted for help, calling all the neighbors around him, and people hurriedly came to rescue them with buckets and scoops, and this scene looked like a sudden fire.
Shen Xueying watched her surroundings and said to Jiang Chen, "What should I do next?" ”
"Shen Ke said that Ji Bei is not in the city at the moment, which makes us have no idea what to do, but this person has to be removed."
Jiang Chen looked at the blazing wine shop in front of him, and suddenly asked Shen Xueying, on what basis did the Night Punishment Division arrest Ji Bei in the first place, and how did he plan to deal with this person?
Because it seems that there is a rather secret inside story behind this matter, Jiang Chen now wants to know the answer.
Shen Xueying no longer concealed it, but opened her mouth to say six words, but directly shocked Jiang Chen and didn't know how to react for a while.
"He's a royal descendant."
"What do you say? Now the Daqian royal family has two orthodox direct bloodlines, one is the heir of the current emperor, and the other is inherited from the Jing'an Palace, but no matter which one of them, I haven't heard of a child who is outcast? ”
Jiang Chen was shocked by Ji Bei's identity.
Shen Xueying expected Jiang Chen to react like this, so she immediately explained: "Ji Bei is the heir of the current emperor, and he is the eldest son. Before the emperor inherited the unification, he was frequently plotted and framed by political enemies. ”
In order to protect his son, he ordered someone to secretly send Jibei out of the royal capital to preserve his bloodline. In the next few years, Ji Bei's fate was full of ups and downs, and after twists and turns, he finally broke off contact with the emperor. ”
"I thought he should have died on the way to escape the enemy's pursuit, but our Night Punishment Division secretly searched for many years, and finally verified the identity of Jibei's prince, but this blood relationship of more than 20 years has long been indifferent to the point of no return."
Although Jiang Chen doesn't know much about Ji Bei's experience after that, he can imagine what kind of drastic changes will occur in a person's heart when he is born to death again and again in the process of evading pursuit and killing.
For Ji Bei, the royal status did not bring him a life of fine clothes and food, standing above 10,000 people, and he couldn't even get back a full meal and a peaceful day.
After all the hardships he has experienced, his heart has finally become distorted, and he no longer desires to regain his identity, but instead hopes to destroy the royal family that has dominated the world for more than 600 years.
For this reason, he joined Xuanyan Mansion, served Shen Yinglong, and lurked in Qishan for many years in the name of Zhao Shanhe. Stirring up the clouds, all this is just to go against his emperor Lao Tzu.
This person is extremely dangerous, and his identity is highly sensitive, after the Night Execution Division controlled him, he didn't know what to do, so he could only keep him imprisoned in the Water Pavilion dungeon until Jiang Chen intervened and let Ji Bei regain his freedom.
Shen Xueying paused slightly, and then said: "Few people know about Ji Bei's identity, but when we left the royal capital this time, our Night Execution Division had already received a clear will from the emperor to make Ji Bei completely disappear from this world. ”
"Finally, I still have to start, even if it's flesh and blood."
Jiang Chen is not surprised by this, since ancient times, the emperor's family affairs have never been swayed by feelings.
After he learned the truth, he also increased his killing intent towards Ji Bei, because such a prince with a ghost in his heart, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, would run around and act recklessly, that was the root of the bane that could not be eliminated.
How much of the current crisis in the north is caused by him behind Shen Yinglong's back?
Killing him is tantamount to benefiting the common people in the world, and at the same time, it can also cut off many conspiracies and tricks that are secretly breeding, so as to prevent many people from suffering unjustified disasters.
"Ji Bei won't be able to run sooner or later, but the most important thing at the moment is to capture the city."
Jiang Chen looked up at the full moon in the night, which was as clear as jade, and there were still three days left before the five-day appointment between him and Han Yuyang.
One more day, the brothers of Qishan will suffer one more day in the ice and snow, Jiang Chen is actually very anxious in his heart, but he knows that he is really in a hurry to deal with Shen Yinglong.
At dawn the next day, rumors were circulating in Wangchuan City about Chai Qizhi's death in the fire, and as Jiang Chen had predicted, almost everyone had no doubt that Chai Qizhi's death was just an accident.
If it weren't for Shen Ke luring Chai Qizhi into the wine shop, it would be difficult for Jiang Chen and Shen Xueying to avoid the many guards who were always following Chai Qizhi and calmly attack and kill him.
The matter has been completed, Shen Yinglong's side has been cut off, and the next thing to do is to create turmoil in Wangchuan City.
The reason why the Shen family sat firmly in Diaoyutai was because they had built Wangchuan City into the most solid barrier among the cities in the north, and the grain, grass, materials, and men and horses in the city were all full, and they were enough to defend themselves.
What's more, the Shen family also colluded privately with the Beiyan people, even if the Beiyan army really attacked Wangchuan City, it would not do anything to this city that was actually in the hands of the Shen family.
What Jiang Chen had to do next was to break this state of affairs and make the people in the city panic about the war, and to make them believe that it was impossible for the Shen family to protect their lives.
"I see, we can do this in the Night Execution Division." Shen Xueying said very firmly.
Although Jiang Chen didn't know how many people from the Night Torture Division had mixed in in Wangchuan City at the moment, it was still very simple to let them create all kinds of rumors in the city and cause people to panic.
After making specific arrangements, Jiang Chen had to sit back and relax and find a place to lie dormant temporarily, and the rest of the time would allow those rumors to spread rapidly, and he just had to wait quietly for the moment when the time was ripe.
