Chapter 118: Speculations about the dismissal of the Minister of Justice

When the horse's hoof was about to step on Xiao Jin, he was keenly aware that if he allowed the horse's hoof to step on him, he would never see his wife again.

At that moment, he used all his strength to leap up and flew onto the horse's back.

He took out his treasured pills and stuffed them into his mouth randomly. All the actions happened in the blink of an eye.

He closed his eyes and lay on the horse's back. The warhorse that had been with him for many years actually carried him back to the camp.

The sound of horse hooves echoed from outside the tent in the distance, and Xiao Jin's heart moved. He knew that war was about to come again.

The enemy general thought that he had been poisoned and his plan had succeeded, so he launched a large-scale attack at this time, probably hoping to kill him while he was sick.

Xiao Jin had already anticipated the enemy's plan. He had already put on his armor and was lying on the bed in the tent.

Even if the enemy spies got close, they would not be able to find any clues. Xiao Jin suddenly sat up and prepared to meet the challenge.

"Master, the doctor said that you are severely poisoned. You should lie down and rest. I will take the soldiers to get Wu Gou's head." Leng Yan said worriedly.

He always follows Xiao Jin, but he doesn't know that Xiao Jin has a magic medicine.

"Wu Xionggen is really capable. None of you can kill him. I will go to the battlefield myself and tear him apart with my own hands to avenge myself."

"My Lord, the doctor said you have been poisoned. You should rest well. I will definitely bring back Wu Gou's head."

"My Lord, you must take care of yourself. I will definitely kill Wu Gou."

"Master, your body..."

Xiao Jin interrupted Leng Yan and said calmly, "It's okay. No matter how serious the poisoning is, it won't be a problem to go on the field and kill the enemy."

Seeing that they could not persuade Marquis Weiwu, the generals could only silently swear in their hearts that they must protect the marquis.

When the soldiers saw the Marquis going into battle with injuries, their morale soared and their shouts were deafening.

Xiao Jin sat on a tall horse, tightly gripping the sword in his hand, his eyes revealing a cold determination.

Under the cover of night, the moonlight was dim and reflected on his cold face, like a proud god of war.

He closed his eyes tightly, listening to the echoing sound of horse hooves, but the uneasiness in his heart grew heavier.

Although the enemy general's plan was broken by his wife's magic medicine, the upcoming war is full of unknowns and dangers.

They soon arrived at the front of the battle and heard the enemy's provocative voice from afar: "Why hasn't Xiao Jin come yet? Is he going to be a coward?"

"Wu Xionggen, open your dog eyes and look, your ancestor has arrived." Xiao Jin shouted arrogantly.

"Xiao Jin? You were hit by our poison arrows, but you can still ride a horse?" the enemy general said in disbelief.

"Haha, Wu Xionggen, open your dog eyes and see if I'm poisoned."

"It's impossible that you haven't been poisoned. My people have already confirmed it. Don't pretend. You will definitely be defeated by me tonight!"

"Humph! Your spies have misinformed me. I am immune to all poisons. As long as you don't kill me on the spot, I will be fine."

Xiao Jin sneered, tapped his toes on the horse's back, and flew towards the enemy general like a beast, his sword flashing with cold light.

As soon as he moved, the horn of war sounded immediately. Xiao Jin and the enemy generals crossed each other, swords flashed, and fire splashed.

Seeing that the two sides' commanders had already started fighting, the soldiers also chose to fight opponents of equal strength.

In an instant, the smell of blood filled the air. On the battlefield, there was a life-and-death struggle. The cruel scene was terrifying.

Xiao Jin was agile and his swordsmanship was as nimble as a dragon. He calmly dealt with Wu Xionggen's crazy attack.

Wu Xionggen became more and more frightened as the battle went on. How could Xiao Jin look like someone who had been poisoned?

The information their spies had gathered was indeed wrong! His eyes flashed with a fierce light. It didn't matter if he wasn't poisoned. He was bound to defeat the Great Sheng God of War tonight.

In recent years, Xiao Jin has emerged in Dasheng. At the age of 18, he killed the Beidi God of War in one battle. He became famous in one battle and was named the God of War by Dasheng.

In the following years, Xiao Jin killed countless famous veterans of the Northern Di.

Xiao Jin's name alone is enough to shock the four nations; he is the mainstay of the Great Sheng Dynasty.

If I can kill him, I can become famous in the four countries.

The more Wu Xionggen thought about it, the more excited he became, and the more fierce his attack became. He witnessed with his own eyes that Xiao Jin was hit by his poison arrow, so he must have been faking it.

With the belief in his heart, Wu Xionggen fought more and more bravely. If Xiao Jin's poison had not been really cured, he might have really died here.

Under the moonlight, Xiao Jin's figure was like a flash of lightning, shuttling across the battlefield. After three hundred rounds, he cut off Wu Xionggen's arm with a sword.

When the deputy general of Beidi saw that his commander was injured, he instantly became bloodthirsty and led generals of all ranks to besiege Xiao Jin.

Blood was raining and the battlefield was filled with smoke, but Xiao Jin remained fierce and fearless.

Finally, when the smoke on the battlefield gradually dissipated, leaving only corpses and blood on the ground, Xiao Jin stood upright on the horse's back.

Although he missed his girl all the time, he also carried a heavy responsibility and mission.

There was a gleam of determination in his eyes, and he was ready to face the next challenge.

At this time, his girl must have fallen asleep!
Maybe he never dreamed that his girl had just fallen asleep.

So much happened that night.

At the Fan Mansion, Mrs. Fan San returned home alone in fear, only to be greeted by her eldest uncle’s roar, “Where’s Eighteen, the Third Brother?”

"My Lord, I was sitting at the gate of the Dali Temple when I saw Minister Wen and his family making things difficult for the wife of the Marquis of Weiwu..."

"Don't use others as an excuse. What does other people's affairs have to do with you?" Marquis Zhenxi interrupted Mrs. Fan San angrily.

Then he asked angrily: "Tell me, did you lose her on purpose?"

It’s not that he really cares about Fan Shiba, but before Master Fan San went to suppress the bandits, he specifically asked him to help him find his daughter.

If Fan Shiba died quietly in some corner, Marquis Zhenxi would definitely clap his hands in celebration. It would be better if a tainted concubine died.

However, Fan Shiba went to the Dali Temple to sue the eldest son of the Yin family, and the Minister of Justice who personally tried the case was dismissed from his post for unknown reasons.

Not only was the Marquis of Zhenxi unsure of the emperor's intention, but the other officials who received the news were also unsure.

I don’t know whether His Majesty blames the Minister of Justice for not sentencing Young Master Yin to a severe sentence, or because he put Young Master Yin in prison.

But the other ministers were not worried, after all, this case had nothing to do with them.

But it’s different for Marquis Zhenxi. The Eighteenth Miss, the scourge of their Fan family, has disappeared!

If the emperor holds him accountable, or if his third brother asks him for the person, how should he face it?
Can he say he didn't know?

This was obviously impossible, because the runners from the Dali Temple sent the troublemaker back to their Fan Mansion in public to change clothes.

"My Lord, I really didn't mean it." Mrs. Fan San almost cried out of grievance.

Before, she did deliberately lose that bitch Eighteen, but today, she definitely didn’t do it on purpose.

She is not a fool, how could he harm her so blatantly!
