Chapter 104: Our own people take action (Subscribe)
Li Chengze was a little panicked. Xie Bian was his strongest retainer, but he was no match for Leng Xue. Xie Bian wanted to challenge Leng Xue, so he naturally let him do it. He became the best swordsman in Kyoto by fighting on his own. Although he was defeated by Marquis Shenwu, it was not unfair to him.
In fact, only the parties involved know clearly, and Tie Shou and Fan Xian also know that it is normal to decide the outcome with one sword, because both of them have fast swords and they are playing a life-and-death game. If it were someone else, such as Tie Shou, Xie Bian could still fight back for a few rounds, but if it was Leng Xue, I am faster than you, so I will just use one sword.
"Greetings, His Majesty." Li Chengze originally planned to kill this group of people to intimidate the prince. He already knew the other party's plan, but Xie Bian had a sword pointed at his neck, so his plan failed.
"No need to be so polite, second brother." The crown prince was very happy, and the second prince suffered a loss.
The second prince also naturally said that the purpose of this trip was to rescue the crown prince, and everyone could only believe it.
As for Xie Bian, he stood beside the Second Prince as a guard again. However, compared with the scary man standing with a sword in his arms and the scary honest man, his appearance was not very impressive. These were two ninth-rank officials.
After the brothers were friendly and respectful, they went back to their own homes. After the prince returned to the palace, he immediately went to pay a visit to the queen. This time he saved himself, which fully proved the influence of his mother.
The fact that the four famous detectives of the Six Gates were mobilized in full force proved my cousin's control over the Six Gates. A token he released could actually directly mobilize state departments. This was a bit outrageous and a bit of an overstepping of authority.
He had thought it through. If he had a chance, he would get his mother's token out and it would be really useful. News also came from the palace that the Four Famous Constables were dispatched because of one of the tokens released by the Marquis of Shenwu.
This was the rumor spread by the Queen herself. She was really exceeding her authority by directly mobilizing the six gates. She must have had a seemingly reasonable reason.
Emperor Qing was also a little unhappy. That's why he wanted to take back the Six Gates. This is a state agency, how can you mobilize it just by issuing a few tokens? Do you think this is your private army?
As for saving the prince, this is Kyoto, and his son is no pushover. Only his mother is confused and hasn't thought it through, or she's just afraid of what might happen.
However, Emperor Qing also knew that the merit of saving the prince was enough for him to reward the God of Detectives and the Four Famous Detectives.
He wanted to let the Six Gates know that this department belonged to his Qing Kingdom, and Qing Kingdom belonged to him, the emperor.
……
Border.
"Doesn't the Supervisory Council have an insider in Northern Qi? He even sent out information before. Why is it gone now?" Shen Qingzhou looked at the map in front of him and asked Qin Rong beside him.
He felt that he was being targeted, but this was a war, and he couldn't be so naive. The Inspectorate didn't want to share the intelligence with him.
Although Qin Rong was a general, he knew that his ability to command troops was no match for Shen Qingzhou's.
Shen Qingzhou relied on his extraordinary military power to expand the territory, which made everyone a little unbelievable. They all thought that he was good at commanding troops.
He was just leading the troops. No matter what kind of ambush he encountered, he could fight his way out on his own. He could be considered to have the ability to command troops. All he had to do was kill all the enemies.
Qin Rong also knew that if they won the war, he would get a lot of credit, but if they lost, he would be blamed. He didn't mind giving the command to the God of War.
This is the mentality of a working man. I know you let him come with the intention of restricting him, but it has nothing to do with me. I just don't want to lose. Shen Qingzhou has no intention of setting a trap. Qin Ye has nothing to say, so just cooperate.
"There has been no information for nearly seven days." Qin Rong was also puzzled. At this moment, the Supervisory Office had already received Yan Bingyun's information, but deliberately did not give it to the border troops.
Of course, it would not be to pit the border troops. Qing Kingdom itself was strong, and at most it would maintain a standoff. Chen Pingping valued Shen Qingzhou a little too much. Even if he was not directly in charge of the troops, he was afraid that he would have merit. Of course, this was tacitly approved or even promoted by Emperor Qing. He returned to his mansion and saw Si Lili who was waiting for him.
"Master, you're back." Si Lili was very enthusiastic.
"When do you plan to leave?" Shen Qingzhou asked. After bringing her to the border, Si Lili suddenly said that she wanted to stay with him for a few days and then return to Northern Qi. It was really speechless.
Si Lili was indeed a little reluctant. After returning to Northern Qi, it might be difficult for her to meet Shen Qingzhou again.
"I have contacted the people of Qi through secret letters, and it will be soon." Si Lili said. Shen Qingzhou nodded and continued to look at the map. He was willing to explore this world.
He also discovered a blind spot: there were indeed no other races in this world, and the place where humans lived was not as big as reality.
I don’t know if it’s because everyone’s mental power is only used to construct the plot world, or because most of the world is actually under the ice field and everyone has no ability to explore the world.
Northern Qi at this moment.
Jinyiwei Commander Shen Zhong was looking at the private letter smuggled from Qing State, and his mind was turning.
The God of War of Qing Kingdom is at the border, and he came to the border this time because Emperor Qing deliberately transferred him away from Kyoto. He had an idea.
As for Shen Qingzhou, he wished to kill him as soon as possible. He was a man truly loyal to Qi. Shen Qingzhou's ability to take over one third of the grassland should not be underestimated.
This person is a threat to the country. If there is a way, he must be eliminated. However, he couldn't understand why the smugglers would give him such information. They are all people from Qing Country. This is a damn political struggle.
Shen Qingzhou naturally didn't know that a conspiracy was already targeting him. He was strolling in the city at the moment, and the army could not move without orders.
Suddenly, a long sword attacked Shen Qingzhou, causing the people around him to scream and retreat in surprise. This was an assassination in the street.
Shen Qingzhou smiled slightly. With this kind of strength, who would he look down upon? Although an eighth-rank master was already considered a master, he himself was a ninth-rank master known throughout the world.
The man missed his attack and quickly rolled over, climbing onto his horse and running straight out of the city without even having time to lower the city gate.
Shen Qingzhou knew in his heart that the other party was deliberately seducing him, but that was fine, let's see what you were playing at.
"White Dragon." Shen Qingzhou shouted, and a tall horse fell from the sky. There was nothing he could do, as White Dragon didn't like to walk properly now.
"Walk slower." Shen Qingzhou stroked the horse's head and said. With complete weapons and equipment, even if he encountered a large army, with his current combat power, he would not be afraid of being trapped. In other words, he was no longer afraid of being besieged by a large army.
Bai Long slowed down his pace, it was too fast and the opponent could not escape. When the opponent saw Shen Qingzhou catching up, he was excited, thinking that he had succeeded, and he was the one who seduced him.
"The army must not move rashly." In the barracks, Qin Rong had just learned that the military supervisor had been assassinated, and someone came from somewhere to pass on a secret order, saying that the army must not move rashly.
He knew that one of his own people had done the job.
