Before they reached the middle of the alley, King Chu's secret guards jumped out and surrounded Qi Chengjun and others. In just one encounter, they killed two guards.

Qi Chengjun's pupils were shaking.

Although he felt that he was well prepared, Qi Chengjun did not expect that the other party would be so strong!

From the beginning of the battle between the two sides, Qi Chengjun was at a disadvantage, and they were all suppressed.

The guards wanted to lead Qi Chengjun to find a breakthrough, but the secret guards could not let these guards do what they wanted. The sword must be stained with blood when it is raised and dropped.

Qi Chengjun looked at the fallen guards with eyes split open: "Don't you just want my life? You can just come and take it. Why bother these guards?"

"Master Qi!"

"No need to talk nonsense, even if I die here today, I will find a way to send Mr. Qi back safely!"

If someone is looking for assassination, they will definitely ridicule after hearing such a conversation, but they don't expect these secret guards to be like emotionless killing machines, with no wave in their eyes, and even the posture of raising the knife has not changed a bit. .

Qi Chenglang has great martial arts skills. Although Qi Chengjun is a scholar, he is not a weak scholar with no martial arts skills. He saw the opportunity to make a last hit, and finally managed to kill one of the opponent's secret guards.

As the secret guard fell, Qi Chengjun no longer hesitated and roared: "Cover your mouth and lie down!"

He had spent more than half a year with these guards day and night, and had already developed a tacit understanding, so as soon as he finished speaking, the guards all closed their eyes and covered their mouths and lay down, slowing down their breathing.

Qi Chengjun took out the medicinal powder from his sleeve, blew it in the wind, and quickly lay down.

The secret guards were stunned for a moment, then reacted and quickly held their breath, but it was too late.

The overbearing medicinal properties had penetrated into their nasal cavities through a thin layer of scarves. In just a moment, these secret guards were already dizzy and their limbs were sore and weak.

The secret guard commander understood that this was no ordinary medicine, so he cut his arm with a knife and used the pain to keep himself awake.

But this can only gain a moment of effort.

He lowered his eyes and glanced at Qi Chengjun, and said in a hoarse voice: "What happened today is just the beginning, Qi Chengjun, you can't escape the first grade of junior high school, but you can't escape the fifteenth grade!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he threw down a projectile, and with a burst of smoke, King Chu's secret guards disappeared instantly.

The chilling tranquility in the alley was instantly interrupted by the heavy breathing of Qi Chengjun and others.

It was only then that Qi Chengjun took off his guard and slowly leaned back against the wall. After a while, he said: "Let's go!"

The guards were all seriously injured. They helped each other stand up and returned to Qi Chengjun's residence with injuries all over their bodies.

Qi Chengjun also knew that there would be a second time for such an assassination, so when he left the house, he would not just bring his guards with him, but let the emperor's secret guards come in and out together.

Not only that, Qi Chengjun also secretly found Tianjianglou and asked him to help investigate the origins of these secret guards. Naturally, he truthfully reported the truth to the emperor about his encounter with the killer.

By the time Qi Chenglang's letter arrived in Huizhou, Qi Chengjun had already experienced more than ten assassinations.

When the letter was brought in, the doctor was bandaging Qi Chengjun.

The assassinations by King Chu's secret guards became more and more crazy. Even though he was protected by the emperor's secret guards these two times, Qi Chengjun was inevitably injured. Qi Chenglang's letter made Qi Chengjun, who had been in a gloomy mood for a long time, finally show a smile on his face.

He opened the letter and saw that Qi Chengjun first stated in the letter the current situation in Mobei. General Lu and Magistrate Ke had pulled out most of the King of Chu's people, and the remaining people were not to be feared.

The most important thing is that Qi Chengjun saw the hint in Qi Chenglang's letter that His Highness had arranged the former Huo Jiajun marshal and deputy general into the Mobei Army with new identities.

With the joining of these people, it will be just around the corner for the Mobei Army to regain its former glory!

Qi Chengjun laughed: "No wonder the King of Chu has gone crazy and wants to assassinate me during this period. It turns out that he has completely lost power in Mobei!"

The King of Chu's power base is in the Jiangnan area. The Jiangnan Navy and his private soldiers can be said to be that if the King of Chu controls the Mobei Army again and marches towards the capital from the south and the north at the same time, it will be difficult to defend the capital. !

But things are different now. Not only has King Chu completely lost control of Mobei, but his family is no longer the only one in Jiangnan.

The King of Chu couldn't wait to silence him now, simply because he wanted to take Huizhou into his own hands again.

The collapse of Liji Trading Company in Mobei really put a lot of money into King Chu's pocket.

Qi Chengjun smiled so happily that he accidentally touched the wound and took a deep breath.

The captain of the guard on the side came forward to take a look, couldn't help but laugh, and then said: "But Mr. Qi, the situation in Mobei is so bad, King Chu not only did not lie dormant, but killed you. Is he..."

The word rebellion suddenly appeared in Qi Chengjun's mind.

This speculation is absurd, but it is very likely!

The captain of the guard whispered: "The people over in Jiangzhou heard the news that Ling Changshi, the staff of the King of Chu, was assassinated on the way to the King of Chu's Mansion, and his body has been buried."

Qi Chengjun knew that the captain of the guard would never say something like this without reason: "You mean, there is something fishy about the death of Ling Changshi?"

"Yes!" the captain of the guard whispered, "The news released by King Chu is that Ling Changshi's death is closely related to you, sir. Moreover, King Chu's staff also comforted Ling Changshi's family, saying that King Chu has died. I’m thinking of ways to avenge Ling Changshi.”

Qi Chengjun was simply shocked by King Chu's operation!

The death of Ling Changshi must have been done by King Chu, but he not only blamed himself for the death, but also rationalized the fact that he sent someone to assassinate him.

Qi Chengjun scratched his chin, feeling that after experiencing a series of failures, the King of Chu suddenly grew a brain.

But that's not the most important thing now.

Qi Chengjun suppressed his thoughts and then read the letter. In the letter, Qi Chenglang mentioned his ideals: "Brother, in the past in the capital, I was ignorant and only had to stand guard every day. But after talking with General Lu, I discovered that, It turns out that people can have another way of living."

"Brother, I want to join the army to resist the Beidi people and guard the border of our Dasang Dynasty. But I can't let go of Your Highness in my heart. Especially today, Xie Changshi and others have expressed their stance that they will always be with Your Highness in the future."

"Brother, is what I am thinking considered a betrayal of His Highness?"

After reading the letter, Qi Chengjun's eyebrows were frivolous, and he felt very relieved in his heart.

What Qi Chenglang said was true. He had arrangements with his family when he was in Beijing, but he had never thought about such far-reaching things... (End of Chapter)
