Although this strange dragon armor talks like a sieve, he is still very reliable in his work.

In less than half an hour, a carriage arrived.

I'm afraid that his men haven't left at all and are hiding in the dark. Otherwise, how could he do things so fast alone.

We couldn't stay in the jungle hut for too long. When the carriage arrived, Qin Shuhuang asked Long Jia to help carry Xuan Cang into the carriage.

The carriage is not big, but it is carefully decorated inside.

The seats on both sides of the carriage were removed, and there were soft quilts and two pillows inside, just enough for the unconscious Xuan Cang to lie in the carriage.

When Xuan Cang got on the carriage, Long Jia deliberately went to Qin Shuhuang to plead guilty and said: "Your Highness, the situation is special and I can't prepare another carriage. I'll ask you to ride with Commander Xuan Cang. I'm outside." I will be your coachman. Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely not mention this matter to the prince again when we return to the capital."

Qin Shuhuang:...Haha!
Qin Shuhuang's lips twitched as he got into the carriage, and Long Jia dutifully became the driver.

The official road is full of ordinary carriages carrying goods and people. This carriage is driving on the official road and coupled with the appearance of the dragon armor and the crowd, it is not eye-catching at all.

A small courtyard in Ningshui City.

Luo Chu sat in the main room with a book. It had been half an hour, but he still hadn't turned a page.

He picked up the long-cooled tea cup next to him and poured it into his mouth. Finally he couldn't sit still, put down the book, and started walking back and forth anxiously in the main room.

Boying wanted to stop Mr. Luo from drinking the cold tea, but before he stretched out his hand, Mr. Luo had already drank the tea.

Boying was helpless. After following his husband for so long, this was the first time he saw him in such an anxious mood.

Luo Chu said: "Boying, go to the kitchen to prepare dinner first."

Boying took the order and left.

Not long after the scholar Boying left, a man in gray appeared in the hall.

"How about the Xue Mansion?"

The man in gray clasped his hands and said, "Sir, Captain Xue's lieutenant led a search of Xue's mansion, but nothing was found. At this time, Captain Xue has already gone to the Wei mansion with his betrayed lieutenant."

"Is there any news about the eldest princess?"

"Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, was escorted out of Xue Mansion by Captain Xue's people and has left Ningshui City."

"Where's General Liu?"

"Sir, there is no movement at the moment."

After receiving this news, Luo Chu's heart sank.

No news at this time is not good news.

General Liu is not a person who can keep his composure. If Qin Shuhuang leaves Ningshui safely, there will definitely be no movement from General Liu. He will definitely send people to continue chasing him. If Qin Shuhuang is not found yet, Liu The general will not sit calmly in the Wei Mansion and wait.

Therefore, General Liu is afraid that he already knows the whereabouts of the eldest princess. His people are in action and are [-]% to [-]% sure of capturing the eldest princess. How can General Liu be so quiet!
"Where is Xuan Cang, the commander of the eldest princess's bodyguard?"

"I don't know... Xuan Cang went to the morning market in the morning and left when the princess was not there. My subordinates couldn't catch up..."

When Luo Chu heard the news, he almost couldn't control his emotions.

He rubbed his forehead and said, "Continue to find out the news! Especially from General Liu. If there is any news, report it as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

The man in gray stepped away.

The originally quiet entrance to the Wei Mansion was now noisy.

The housekeeper and the guards were unable to stop Captain Xue, who was leading his troops to forcefully break into the Wei Mansion.

Helpless, the housekeeper could only plead with a grimace: "Don't be anxious, Captain Xue, I will go back to the house and inform the master, and the master will definitely give an explanation to Captain Xue."

Lieutenant Xue Duma Jin Dao led a group of people to stand at the gate of the Wei Mansion. His dark face looked like a debt collector, "Go quickly. If you don't reply to me for half a quarter of an hour, be careful. I am leading my troops to rush into the Wei Mansion." !”

"Don't worry, sir, I'll go right away!"

In the study room in the front yard of Wei Mansion, Magistrate Wei was talking to General Liu. The guard outside the door reported that the housekeeper had something urgent to see.

Magistrate Wei had no choice but to apologize to General Liu and then went to see the housekeeper.

Magistrate Wei stood in front of the housekeeper of Wei Mansion with an ugly expression on his face, "What's the matter?"

The housekeeper grimaced, "Sir, Captain Xue and his men are trying to rush in through the gate of the mansion. Now there are Captain Xue's officers and soldiers outside. What should we do?"

Magistrate Wei's eyes widened in shock, "Is the man named Xue crazy? How dare you break into my Wei Mansion without permission!"

The butler looked embarrassed, "Sir, Wang Chen was instigated by General Liu to rebel, and General Liu used your name..."

"What! General Liu...he..."

The housekeeper continued: "Wang Chen and his men forced their way into Xue's house. They turned Xue's house upside down and did not find the person they were looking for. Instead, they angered Captain Xue. Captain Xue is now twisting Wang Chen's back. In front of the gate of our mansion, we must also look through our Wei Mansion..."

It was clear that he did not do this, but he was asked to take the blame. Magistrate Wei felt unjust and panicked, but he did not dare to bring General Liu out to top the vat.

I can only knock out my teeth and swallow blood, and prepare to beg Captain Xue personally.

Rubbing his forehead, Magistrate Wei said: "Please respectfully invite Lieutenant Xue to the flower hall in the front yard, and I will personally attend to you. Remember, you must be polite!"

It is true that he is a member of the regent, but no matter how powerful the regent is, he is still in the capital. Now General Liu can rely on the power of the regent to help him overpower Captain Xue, but General Liu obviously will not stay here for long. As soon as he left, Lieutenant Xue confronted him at every turn, wondering if he could do his job as a prefect.Lieutenant Xue was quickly invited to the flower hall in the Wei Mansion, which was the best place for entertaining guests.

The servants were served the best tea and snacks, and even the maid serving tea was the most beautiful in the house.

It's a pity that Captain Xue was so angry that he didn't even take a sip of the fine tea.

Magistrate Wei appeared in the flower hall with an apologetic smile.

"What kind of wind brings Captain Xue here? Come on, this is the good tea I just got not long ago. Lieutenant Xue has a try."

Lieutenant Xue glanced at the fat Magistrate Wei in front of him, "I don't dare to drink Lord Wei's tea, for fear that if I drink it, I will become Lord Wei's."

"No, no, Lieutenant Xue is really good at joking."

Lieutenant Xue glanced at Lieutenant General Wang Chen who was kneeling at the door of the flower hall and being tied up by him. "I am here today to deliver someone to Lord Wei. Since Wang Chen said he is yours, I will deliver someone to Lord Wei." The government is here, and Magistrate Wei will decide how to arrange it."

"Vice General Wang is a subordinate of Lieutenant Xue. How can he be a member of Wei? Wei has never participated in military matters."

"Oh? So that's it. It seems that Wang Chen is just my subordinate?"

"Of course, of course." Magistrate Wei responded with a smile.

"Since he is my subordinate, Master Wei should have no objection to me doing whatever I want with Wang Chen, right?"

Magistrate Wei twitched the corner of his mouth, "Of course not. You can deal with Captain Xue's people as you want."

So Lieutenant Xue suddenly stood up and walked towards the tied-up Deputy General Wang who was kneeling outside the door.

Walking up to Deputy General Wang, before Deputy General Wang could say a word, the sword flashed and the head was separated!

Magistrate Wei, who followed him out, happened to see this scene and was so horrified that he almost collapsed and sat on the ground.

He stared at Lieutenant Xue in shock, unable to believe that he dared to kill people in his palace!
Magistrate Wei pointed at Captain Xue with shaking hands and stammered: "Captain Xue, you... you are so lawless that you dare to kill people at will!"

Wang Chen was the thorn in the side of Governor Wei who had gone to great lengths to instigate rebellion under Captain Xue. He only secretly lent it to General Liu once, but unexpectedly he was destroyed. It was fake not to feel distressed, but the fear was also real.

He didn't expect Lieutenant Xue to be so cruel. He would do it as soon as he said it, and he would raise the knife and drop it. In front of his face, the men he had previously called brothers were gone.

At this moment, Magistrate Wei was really shocked by Captain Xue.

Lieutenant Xue snorted, "Wang Chen is my subordinate. According to military regulations, if he betrays the general, the general has the right to execute him!"

The prefect of Wei could not help but shake after hearing what Captain Xue said. Just as he was about to continue to accuse Captain Xue, the housekeeper of the Wei mansion hurried over and whispered in the ear of the prefect Wei, "Master, General Liu is angry in the left courtyard. You Go and have a look!”

Magistrate Wei froze. Before he could deal with the killer Xue Duwei, General Liu was also "on fire".

Magistrate Wei, who had been going well for several years, only felt that the past few days had been difficult. No wonder at the beginning of the year, the master in the temple told him his fortune and told him that this year would be unlucky.

Although the voice of the housekeeper of the Wei Mansion was low, it could not be concealed from Captain Xue, who had a sharp ear and eyesight.

After Wei Zhifu heard the news, he was still in the mood to deal with Captain Xue. He tried his best to ignore Lieutenant General Wang next to him who had lost his head. He walked to Captain Xue and raised his hand towards Captain Xue, "No matter what, today is the day of the Wei Dynasty." I am indebted to the captain, and I ask the captain to be tolerant for the sake of our many years of working together. After Wei has dealt with the urgent matter at home, in a few days, I will prepare a generous gift and go to the captain's house to make amends."

Lieutenant Xue glanced sideways at the Wei Prefecture and snorted coldly. He had achieved his purpose of coming today and there was no point in staying in the Wei Prefecture.

"I hope Lord Wei knows what to do. Xue takes his leave!"

After speaking, Lieutenant Xue left with the officers and soldiers.

Magistrate Wei kicked the butler in the butt, "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you go see off the Captain!"

"Yes, sir!" The housekeeper rubbed his butt and chased after him, leading someone to escort Captain Xue out of the Wei Mansion in person.

Captain Xue left, and the prefect of Wei immediately ordered people to dispose of the body of Vice General Wang, wipe up the blood spattered on the ground, and then wipe the sweat from his head to see General Liu.

Compared with meeting Captain Xue, Magistrate Wei was more afraid of meeting General Liu who came from the capital.

Early the next morning, General Liu led his people to leave the Wei Mansion.

Magistrate Wei, who had stayed in the study room in the front yard all night without a wink of sleep, was informed and took his people to Zuokuaoyuan where General Liu lived.

Magistrate Wei, whose face was swollen after receiving two slaps at General Liu's place last night, was frightened when he saw the scene in the left courtyard.

None of the four maids he sent to Zuokuayuan to serve General Liu survived, and they all died in miserable conditions.

Even the four servants serving in the left courtyard did not end well. Only one of the four was still alive. His legs were broken, he was blind and mute. Life was more painful than death.

According to the old servant guarding Zuokuaoyuan, the miserable cry for help in Zuokuaoyuan sounded all night last night.

Early in the morning, when General Liu left, there was still blood on his face. It was unclear whether the blood was from someone else or himself.

Captain Xue returned to Xue Mansion and sent someone to inform Luo Chu that Qin Shuhuang had successfully escaped from Ningshui.

At the same time, Lieutenant Xue also received the news that all the men he sent to protect Qin Shuhuang were killed.

At the desk in the main room of the small courtyard, Luo Chu frowned and rubbed the warm tea cup in his right hand.

The people sent by the senior brother to protect the eldest princess are gone, and General Liu's people have not succeeded either. Could it be that Xuan Cang saved the eldest princess?

But subconsciously he felt otherwise.

If Xuan Cang had someone he could use, he would have protected the eldest princess long ago and would not take action at this time.

Who was the person who saved the eldest princess? (End of chapter)
