Chapter Seventy-Seven: Serial Schemes

Signal arrows soar into the sky.

In the left camp, the commander of the forbidden army of the East Palace came.

The stakes were so high this time that the prince sent him for a trip.

He is also willing to leave the East Palace, and he can also relax.

Let alone...... Leng Xinghe, he has long been unpleasant, relying on the momentum of the Changning Mansion all day long, taking the limelight, this time is also an opportunity, personally escort Leng Xinghe back, and fold Leng Xinghe's pride in his hands!

I was drinking, and suddenly I saw a signal arrow to the sky.

He put down his glass, looked up, and asked his men, "What time is it?" ”

"Back to the commander, just after the son."

The commander paused: "A little earlier than expected." ”

"Eighty percent is that things are going well, Zhou Tingkang said that the prince of Changning has great trust in him."

The Commander nodded: "Follow me!" ”

From Zuo Daying to the front hall of the cottage, you have to walk through a narrow mountain road, which is similar to the neck of a phoenix.

The Commander paused and looked at the narrow passageway, dark and dreary, with a gust of night wind.

"Commander, what's wrong?"

The commander pressed his finger against the hilt: "It's nothing, be careful." ”

"Yes!"

"Commander, take over Leng Xinghe in a while, what will Zhou Tingkang do? Do you want to bring him back too? ”

The commander chuckled, and the coldness was scattered in the wind: "A mountain bandit, what are you going to do when you bring it back?" ”

Joke, what a credit for catching Leng Xinghe, how could he let Zhou Tingkang go back and show his face in front of the prince?

The warrior in front of the crown prince, he must be the first.

As soon as the narrow road was halfway through, suddenly there were some strange noises from above, all of which were broken, from small to large, from far to near.

Commander Huo Ran raised his head and shouted loudly: "Stay away!" ”

But where to avoid such a narrow path?

In the blink of an eye, several people were injured.

The commander brought a total of twelve people, and when they ran out of the narrow road, there were still seven left.

The remaining five also had varying degrees of injury.

Before he could make up his mind, he heard a soft voice from above the narrow passage.

"Are they all dead?"

"I don't know, I can't see clearly."

"Forget it, no matter what they do, it's not better if they don't die anyway, you can make a difference to the big boss."

"Those people are fools, and they deserve it! Let's go to the study to find the big boss to receive the reward! ”

The sound faded away.

The commander was gray-headed, his eyes shimmered with murderous intent, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Zhou Tingkang, Lao Tzu killed you!" ”

His subordinate spat out a mouthful of blood foam and drew his sword: "Commander, let's kill it." ”

The commander waved his hand: "No, this is their territory, Zhou Tingkang will definitely take strict precautions, we must be careful and go in quietly." ”

"Yes."

A few people traveled lightly and sneaked into the cottage in front.

Zhou Tingkang's study is not difficult to find, and he came to the cottage when he was in charge.

The study is divided into two rooms, inside and outside, the outside is big, there are some military books and weapons, as well as sand table maps or something, and the commander of the inner room has never been in, and he doesn't know what to load.

At this time, the study was quiet and the candles were bright, but Zhou Tingkang was not there.

The Commander looked around vigilantly, wondering if there was an ambush, when he suddenly heard movement in the back room.

He gently drew his dagger, motioned for the person behind him to follow, and broke in with the curtain.

This look is not eye-catching, and the commander's brain is shocked.

He didn't pay attention to anything else in the room, and was all attracted by a coral on the table in front of him.

This coral is large and red, and it is a rare treasure.

He has only met twice in his life, and this is the second time, the first time was in the prince's garden, in the birthday gift to the queen mother.

However, those birthday gifts were missing, and they were searched several times but they were not found.

In desperation, the prince had no choice but to open a private treasury and barely make up for some.

I never expected to meet here again.

Zhou Tingkang is a mountain bandit, and some gold and silver are normal, but this kind of thing is difficult to buy with money, where did he get it?

The commander quickly understood, no wonder there was no clue in the search of the capital at that time, it turned out that it was stolen by these mountain bandits!

The commander was shocked and delighted, capturing Leng Xinghe and recovering the birthday gift was a double achievement!

He stepped forward to take a closer look, when suddenly a cold arrow shot from the opposite bookcase.

He turned sideways to dodge: "Who, come out!" ”

The bookcase turned, and Nicholas Chow stood behind.

The commander sneered: "Zhou Tingkang, you are so bold that you actually stole the birthday gift that the prince gave to the queen mother!" ”

Zhou Tingkang didn't speak, and the commander was even more annoyed by his silence: "You still dare to deceive the prince, deceive the commander, and kill the forbidden army, the crime is unforgivable, take your life!" ”

The commander waved his knife over, and Zhou Tingkang's eyes widened and he raised his hand.

The commander thought that he was going to raise a knife to resist, but his hand was faster, and he stabbed Zhou Tingkang in the heart.

"Phew!"

Blood splattered, spraying the Commander's face.

But he didn't feel guilty at all, he directly drew his knife, and Zhou Tingkang's body fell to the ground.

Before the commander could turn around, he suddenly heard a gong sound outside, and someone shouted: "The forbidden army has killed the big boss!" ”

"Come on, the big boss is dead!"

"Avenge the big boss!"

The commander bowed his head in astonishment and looked at the dead Zhou Tingkang - it's too bad, it's a trick!

"Quick, go!"

He led people out, but the yard had already been surrounded, and there were still a few corpses in the yard, and the most conspicuous one he knew, who brought them into the village, called Chun Yumeng.

The subordinate whispered, "What's going on?" When I first came, there were no corpses in the courtyard. ”

"Commander, what do we do now?"

"What else can I do? Kill it! The commander shouted, "Their large army is in the left and right camps, and there are only 100 people here, fighting hard!" ”

"Yes!"

In addition, there is no other way, not to kill others, just wait to be killed by others.

It's easy to say, but Nicholas Chow's men are not ordinary bandits, they train every day, they are all good at fighting, and it is quite difficult to fight.

The Commander's clothes were soaked with sweat a few times, and he also suffered a few injuries, although not fatal, but they also made him slow to move.

The men were even more miserable, and they lost three more, and now only two remained.

The commander was out of breath, the tip of his knife was on the ground, and his heart was extremely unwilling.

It's really a lot of wind and waves, and today I was folded in this place and was played by mountain bandits!

No, it's not.

Zhou Tingkang himself is dead, and he can't count himself in order to calculate him.

He had a vague guess in his heart, and he thought it was too crazy.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside, the sound of horses' hooves, and someone came on horseback!

The commander raised his head to see that the face of the person who came was covered with a black cloth, and he couldn't see his face clearly, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and the tails of his eyes were slightly raised, reflecting the light of the sword and fire, which was amazingly bright.

The horse was so fast that when he approached him, the knight shouted, "Come up!" ”

Without a moment's hesitation, the Commander turned on his horse.

His two subordinates were stunned: "...... unification"

Before he finished speaking, the knight had already turned his horse's head, rushed out of the encirclement, and went straight to the outside of the cottage.

The commander was behind, and he didn't look back, not glancing at his two men.

The night wind was blowing, the commander's tense heart had not been completely loosened, his hand was still holding the knife, and there were no pursuers behind him, he asked: "Dare to ask Your Excellency's honorable name, why do you want to save me?" ”

The knight didn't speak, he raised his hand and raised a token, and in the dim moonlight, the commander could only see the top half, which was a gold medal, and there was a faint crest.

It's not a dragon, but it's also a symbol of royalty.

It's very similar to the token of the East Palace.

"Are you from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
