Inside the Royal Palace.

"The spies have reported that we have already fallen into the hands of King Heng, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince helped Red Flame City resist the attack of King Heng's army, and wiped out King Heng's army of 70,000!

"Shan'er is really exciting this time, it seems that there were only 20,000 defenders in Red Flame City at that time, but Shan'er didn't know how to recruit the Demon Beast Legion, and directly defeated King Heng's army, which is really powerful, I am really wise to let him help Red Flame City this time!" the emperor nodded and said with relief.

"Your Majesty, but King Heng has hundreds of thousands of troops, and he has teamed up with many warriors in the rivers and lakes, although the Red Flame City has been saved, but other cities can't stop King Heng's footsteps. Xue Gonggong said with a worried face.

"The Great Protector General has led hundreds of thousands of troops to the Hengwang fiefdom, but it will take three or five days to arrive, and in these few days, I don't know what will happen, and I don't know how many people will be persecuted by the war. The emperor rubbed his temples and said wistfully.

Suddenly, the emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, looked at Gonggong Xue and asked, "What's going on on Zhong'er's side?"

"There is no movement on His Royal Highness the Second Prince's side, he has been staying in his own house during this time, even if he goes out, he is just eating, drinking and having fun, nothing unusual. Xue Gonggong responded.

"It's just that he and Shan'er are fighting openly and secretly, it's good that he didn't participate in this matter, if I find out that he is also involved in this matter, I will not spare it!" said the emperor, with a cold glint in his eyes.

......

Although Qin Shan assisted Red Flame City to resist King Heng's army, the threat of King Heng still existed, especially with hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, if it was not solved, it would be very troublesome.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I just received the news that the Great General of the Protector is leading hundreds of thousands of troops to King Heng's fiefdom, preparing to take down King Heng, a traitor, in one fell swoop, what should we do next?" Zhao Si asked.

"Although Red Flame City has been defended, our mission has not yet been completed, and this time we will work with the Great Protector General to kill King Heng. Qin Shan squinted his eyes and said.

"Yes, Your Highness. ”

For Qin Shan, King Heng must be killed, which is not only related to his future ascension to the throne as emperor, but also related to his task, his main task is to eliminate King Heng.

Therefore, after relieving the predicament of Red Flame City, Qin Shan left Red Flame City directly, and this time he wanted to directly take down King Heng.

On the way to King Heng, the army of the general of the protector Ren Zhongjun has arrived at 'Bishan City', which is close to King Heng's fiefdom, and King Heng's army is not far from Bishan City.

Qin Shan heard about it and came to Bishan City.

"See His Royal Highness the Prince!" After seeing Qin Shan, Ren Zhongjun saluted respectfully.

"The general doesn't have to be polite. Qin Shan waved his hand, and then looked at Ren Zhongjun with a serious face, "How many people did you bring this time?"

"The last general led an army of 300,000, after all, the army under King Heng also had 300,000. Ren Zhongjun responded.

"Are you sure?" Qin Shan asked.

"Of course, the last general has experienced countless wars, large and small, although the opponent he faced this time is the battle-hardened King Heng, but the rebels are rebels after all, and there is no momentum of our army at all, and the last general has the confidence to win King Heng!" Ren Zhongjun swore an oath.

"Wouldn't it be easier if we killed King Heng?" Qin Shan asked with interest.

Ren Zhongjun was stunned for a moment, and then nodded and responded: "If King Heng is killed, his army will lose its backbone, and even if he resists desperately, his morale will decline, and it will naturally be easier to defeat, but it is ......"

Speaking of this, Ren Zhongjun's expression became solemn, and after thinking about it, he continued: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the last general knows what you mean, Your Highness wants to assassinate King Heng secretly, but as far as Wei Chen knows, King Heng has a black hand behind this rebellion, and there may be powerful masters around him to protect him, and the assassination plan is easy to fail." ”

"Do you know that there are still black hands behind King Heng?" Qin Shan looked at Ren Zhongjun in surprise.

Ren Zhongjun's eyes flashed with a look of memory, "When the emperor was alive, the last general was already in the army, and at that time, the last general had many contacts with King Heng, he has been forbearance for decades, and he almost did not show the intention of competing for the throne, but at this time, he suddenly rebelled, there must be a reason, plus the last general planted some eyeliner in King Heng's army, and found that there are always unknown people who have been in contact with King Heng recently." ”

"So you guess that there is someone behind King Heng. ”

"Yes. ”

"Your guess is not wrong, there are indeed people behind King Heng, the last time I left Shengmao City, I was intercepted by a wave of black-robed people, these people's cultivation is very profound, and even the realm of the Martial King is nothing, our Shengtian Dynasty does not have such a strong force at all, and they also revealed a piece of news before they died. ”

"What's the news?"

"The general meaning is that this matter is not over, and even if King Heng's rebellion fails in the end, it will not end this matter. ”

Hearing Qin Shan's words, Ren Zhongjun fell into thought, and only spoke after a while: "It seems that there are indeed foreign forces secretly interfering with our Shengtian Dynasty, but the mastermind behind the scenes has no time to worry about it for the time being, and the most important thing at the moment is to solve the problem of King Heng." ”

"That's right, let's kill King Heng first, so I decided to kill King Heng directly at night!" Qin Shan said with a cold glint in his eyes.

"Your Highness, this matter is dangerous, and you can't act so recklessly. Ren Zhongjun was worried about Qin Shan's safety, so he hurriedly persuaded him.

"Don't worry, Prince Ben has his own measure. Qin Shan shook his head and said indifferently.

As night fell, Qin Shan was about to go directly to King Heng's fiefdom to assassinate King Heng, and just as he was about to leave, a soldier came to Qin Shan and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty ordered the little one to send something to His Highness." ”

"What is it?" Qin Shan asked.

"The little one doesn't know, His Majesty said that he can only let His Highness see it alone, so the little one put things outside the barracks, and asked His Highness to move outside the barracks. The soldier shook his head.

"Okay, then the prince will accompany you to take a look. ”

Then, Qin Shan followed the soldier to the grass next to the barracks.

"Where's the thing?" Qin Shan glanced around, and then asked in surprise.

"Things are in ......"

Before the soldier could finish his words, suddenly, he took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed Qin Shan in the chest.

Qin Shan didn't have the slightest surprise, instantly grabbed his wrist and slammed it down.

Click!

With a crisp sound, this soldier's arm was directly broken by Qin Shan.

"Ah......h

"Who sent you?" Qin Shan asked coldly.

"Yes...... It's ......"
