0019 A treacherous servant shall not die a good death.
Du Jin was completely lost before he died.
How dare you kill me?
I was just trying to scare you.
Why?
Aren't you afraid of being investigated by Marquis Xuanwu, or of a conflict arising between the two families?
This guerrilla general of Xuanwu Army, the adopted son of Marquis Xuanwu, collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
The Azure Dragon Blade ultimately failed to touch Yuwen Zhe in the slightest.
Clang!
The long sword fell to the ground, and the corpse lunged forward, kneeling before the sedan chair.
"Mentally challenged..."
Zhao Jing sheathed his sword and casually wiped away the bloodstains.
I'm wasting my breath talking just to kill you.
The Xuanwu Army had an elite thousand-man squad, crossbows capable of breaking through enemy lines, guerrilla generals, and military formations.
With such combat power, they killed Zhao Jing and his party more than ten times.
Even if Wei Zheng himself came, he would not dare to confront him directly.
This is the power of a military formation.
Therefore, Zhao Jing had to take the risk.
He took advantage of Yuwen Zhe's arrogance to provoke Du Jin, creating an opportunity for a one-on-one fight.
The other party thought it was just a verbal argument.
Ordinary people would never dare to kill the Grand Tutor's son over a quarrel, as that would be a catastrophe that wipes out the entire clan.
But Zhao Jing's scheme was solely for the purpose of killing.
One harbored suspicion.
A murderous intent arose spontaneously.
In the battles of the martial world, life and death can be decided in an instant.
The outcome is now decided.
Zhao Jing used his power to intimidate people, attacked them when they were unprepared, and lured them to their deaths.
This is how nobles kill people.
The adopted son of the Marquis of Xuanwu, a guerrilla general of the imperial court, died like a wild dog.
Do not look down.
The pagoda emitted a faint light, drawing in Du Jin's true spirit. Whether it was used to create illusions or for sacrifices, it would be a valuable resource.
Zhao Jing's mastery of mystical arts has subtly improved.
It truly is Namo Maitreya Buddha.
"General!"
The entire place was deathly silent; the Xuanwu Army stood there dumbfounded.
Who could have predicted that a verbal dispute would escalate into a bloody incident?
"General!"
"My general!"
Wei Kai, filled with grief and rage, drew his sword and roared in fury:
"Avenge the general!"
"Kill them all!"
The soldiers' expressions changed.
It's time to wrap this up.
Chen Zhong took a step forward, and immediately a tiger roared through the mountains and forests.
Roar!
The roar was like thunder, sweeping across the land!
He then switched to studying "The Twelve Gates Golden Bell Cover" and gained a great deal from it.
This roar unleashed a surge of energy, revealing the power of a half-step grandmaster!
Unexpectedly, the soldiers, filled with grief and indignation, vaguely formed a military formation and blocked the lion's roar.
A desperate army is bound to win!
Chen Zhong would not stand idly by and immediately shouted:
"You dare to rebel!"
"Du Jin attempted to murder the Grand Tutor's son but was killed on the spot; he deserved it!"
"Anyone who dares to make a move will have their entire family executed!"
A bucket of cold water was poured over their heads, and the soldiers of Xuanwu Army were jolted awake from their daze.
If faced with an external enemy, they would have already swarmed Wei Kai and hacked him to pieces.
But it just so happens to be Yuwen Zhe.
The Yuwen family was powerful and influential, at the height of their power.
Although the Du family was powerful, it was ultimately weaker.
Grand Tutor Yuwen Huan was also given the title of King Weiwu.
Although Marquis Xuanwu was a member of the imperial family, he only reached the rank of Grandmaster.
Moreover, the Grand Tutor has the potential to be promoted to a terrestrial immortal.
Who dares to act recklessly?
At this moment, Zhao Jing spoke:
"Du Jin plotted treason, but his crime did not extend to the general public."
"The ringleader has been executed, and I will personally report this to the imperial court."
"Each of you shall perform your duties and not let any remnants of the Eastern Palace escape."
Zhao Jing knew that killing Du Jin was only the first step.
Whether he can pass the test depends on his ability to maintain composure within this thousand-strong army; he must not show any weakness.
Zhao Jing insulted the young marshal earlier, deliberately using euphemisms to avoid provoking public anger.
He had to manage the emotions of the Xuanwu Army, as if he were walking a tightrope.
The next step was to reassure the troops.
The soldiers of Xuanwu Army indeed hesitated.
Yes.
With Young Master Yuwen here, any action would be treason, and who could bear the consequences?
Wei Kai snapped out of his daze and instinctively shouted:
"Brothers..."
"What's your name?"
Zhao Jing interrupted him directly, his voice as cold as ice.
Wei Kai's momentum faltered, and he instinctively replied:
"Your subordinate, Wei Kai, is hereby appointed as a garrison commander in the army."
"That's a real waste of talent."
"A poor kid like you should move up in the social ladder!"
"A new dynasty, a new look!"
Zhao Jing slowly stepped out of the sedan chair and patted Wei Kai on the shoulder.
Move it up!
Wei Kai's heart pounded wildly.
As someone from a poor family, what makes him inferior to Du Jin? It's that he doesn't have a godfather or a father to acknowledge!
Now is the chance.
Wei Kai's grip on the knife loosened involuntarily, and he hurriedly sheathed it, fearing it might cause a misunderstanding.
Zhao Jing's smile was warm and gentle, like a spring breeze.
"Just now, Du Jin attempted to assassinate me, but thanks to Commander Wei risking his life to stop him."
"Everyone saw it, right?"
The sedan chair bearers quickly responded:
"What you say is absolutely right, young master."
"We all saw it, and we can testify to that!"
Zhao Jing's smile remained unchanged:
"This position of guerrilla general is rightfully yours."
"I will recommend him to Fourth Brother."
Even if the Xuanwu Army can't tolerate you, the Xiliang Army will keep its doors wide open.
Zhao Jing's hint was extremely blatant, and Wei Kai instantly understood.
Du Jin is dead.
The dead are not worth pledging allegiance to.
If Marquis Xuanwu investigates, he will be the scapegoat.
If one were to serve the Yuwen family, it would be a meritorious act of following the emperor!
Fight!
Wei Kai's grief and indignation vanished, as did his thoughts of revenge. He immediately bowed and shouted:
"This humble official bears witness!"
"Du Jin was relentless in his attack on the young master; he deserved to die!"
very good!
Zhao Jing shouted loudly:
"Du Jin committed treason and deserves to die!"
"The rest were all deceived and will not be investigated."
"You must all perform your duties diligently and not slack off!"
"Even Du Jin's personal guards are not guilty of joint offenses."
"Commander Wei, come with me to the palace to meet the Emperor and explain the whole story."
D.
Wei Shoubei will be promoted to Guerrilla General.
It's truly a battle of gods; mortals should meddle.
After Zhao Jing repeatedly tried to win them over, the Xuanwu army's murderous intent vanished, and they sheathed their swords.
Du Jin also had personal guards, but with their commander suddenly dead, the guards were leaderless and, being in the wrong, none of them dared to move, watching Zhao Jing and the others leave.
Zhao Jing then discreetly stored Du Jin's corpse into his Sumeru Ring.
The remains of a master of innate talent, a valuable item.
There was also the Azure Dragon Blade that Du Jin had dropped on the ground, which was clearly a low-grade spiritual weapon.
It's clearly better than the Embroidered Spring Blade of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, so it shouldn't be wasted.
When I have time in the future, I can touch the corpse and carefully examine the spoils of war.
Adhering to the principle of never wasting anything, Zhao Jing took the body away.
He then turned and climbed into the sedan chair, inviting Wei Kai to ride with him.
Wei Kai's face turned a deep purplish-red, filled with excitement:
"Young master, this is against propriety!"
Zhao Jing smiled meaningfully:
"It's alright, I like a wise and shrewd person like you."
"Many talented people come from humble backgrounds."
"Get in the sedan chair, let's enter the city!"
Wei Kai seemed to see a bright future right before his eyes:
"Thank you for your help, young master!"
The Blood Raven Flying Carriage was spacious but not luxurious, with open sides and only brocade curtains hanging down, originally intended to facilitate escape.
But now it has become Wei Kai's ladder to the clouds.
No matter how you look at it, it seems luxurious!
Wei Kai sank into the soft couch, gently inhaling the delicate fragrance, feeling as if his bones had lightened a few ounces, and his heart raced.
The guerrilla general is ours!
After all these years, we've finally made it!
Now that I have the Yuwen family as my backing, I will be more than just a guerrilla general in the future.
Seeing that he was lost in thought, Zhao Jing simply raised his hand to signal him.
Lift the sedan chair!
The group swaggered through the checkpoints and headed straight into Yujing City.
With Wei Kai's help, even opening the door was no longer a problem.
However, Bao'er and Zhao Jing's true forms did not intend to go directly to the capital; the two remained outside the city.
From this moment on, the troops split into two groups.
Zhao Jing also asked very aptly:
"Commander Wei, I went out for a while. What's the situation in Yujing now?"
Commander Wei replied somewhat embarrassedly:
"All we know is that the young marshal is launching a fierce attack on the Crown Prince's residence, while the traitor Zhao Wei is putting up a stubborn resistance, turning into a red sun that hangs in the sky."
"Grand Tutor's divine skills are unparalleled. He joined forces with the Prince of Zhenbei to seal the Red Sun. After tomorrow, this Red Sun will be extinguished."
"As for other matters, I am not very knowledgeable about them."
Zhao Jing's smile grew even more amiable:
"Truly worthy of being called Father. Such petty scoundrels will never amount to anything."
"What you say is very true, young master!"
Wei Kai was overjoyed and revealed everything he knew.
Zhao Jing listened and praised him, which made Wei Kai even happier.
I felt like the pinnacle of my life was right in front of me.
I don't know how long we chatted, but suddenly a cool breeze came.
Wei Kai's feverish mind cooled down slightly.
Yujing remained quiet at night.
However, the sedan chair turned into a dark alley.
This doesn't seem to be the way to the palace.
Wei Kai's heart skipped a beat:
"Young master, have we taken the wrong path?"
"This seems to be Anmin District."
Yujing is very large, divided into sixteen districts.
The siege of the Crown Prince's residence by the army had little to do with Anmin District, which was mostly inhabited by commoners and therefore appeared relatively peaceful.
Zhao Jing smiled, but his eyes were as cold as ice.
"That's right, it's time."
What does "time's up" mean?
Just keep smiling.
Wei Kai hadn't quite grasped the situation yet.
The next instant, the maidservant nearby suddenly clasped her hands together, and the surrounding profound energy gathered.
A murderous aura suddenly arose around the flying sedan!
Several innate masters rushed forward.
First, a large, iron-like hand tightly sealed his mouth and nose.
A flash of cold light, and the dagger was already at his throat.
Wei Kai's eyes were bloodshot as he desperately reached for the sword at his waist.
Too late.
The other few innate masters moved with lightning speed.
His arms were held in a tight grip, and his waist was locked tightly.
The subtle fragrance inside the sedan chair was the Ten-Fragrance Softening Powder.
He had no power to resist.
A cool sensation swept across my throat.
Fresh blood gushed out like a fountain, choking him and making a gurgling sound as it entered his trachea.
He needed to exert his strength, he needed to escape, and there were countless questions surrounding him.
If you kill me, who will give you false testimony?
Who will help you deal with Marquis Xuanwu?
Are you crazy?
"Young master..."
Spare me!
Wei Kai was still convulsing in vain when a flying sword was already upon him.
puff!
The carefree sword pierced through his brain.
The garrison commander, who had just begun to dream of becoming a general, stopped struggling.
Then a foul stench emanated from his body.
died.
Chen Zhong then released his grip, covered his nose in disgust, and spat a glob of phlegm at Wei Kai:
"And he's a fucking guerrilla general."
"You unfaithful bastard."
"Haven't you heard that a treacherous servant deserves a terrible death?"
Chen Zhong chose the word "loyalty" because he looked down on this greedy and despicable person.
Zhao Jing had no such sense of hierarchy, and simply sighed:
"He was a pitiful man too."
Let's clean up the mess.
Life is like a dream, a bubble, a dew, or a flash of lightning.
Du Jin and Wei Kai's beautiful dream had just begun to emerge, only to vanish in an instant.
impermanence of life.
That's why we should always keep a smile on our faces.
Zhao Jing suddenly understood the true nature of the Great Dream Floating Buddha Sutra.
Even if he doesn't believe in Maitreya Buddha, the monk's cultivation will advance further.
Cultivator - Late Stage!
In a mere instant, he stepped into the impermanent mystery that countless Buddhists could not fathom.
He even understood why Buddhist techniques could turn people into living dead.
Because this is also part of impermanence.
Dreams are unpredictable, and so is life.
In just one day, Zhao Jing's life underwent a dramatic change.
This makes him exceptionally suited to practicing this technique.
Under the light of the stupa, he could even glimpse messages of death through his dreams.
Du Jin, Wei Kai's remaining dream, appeared before his eyes.
well.
Zhao Jing composed himself and followed the same procedure with Wei Kai's body, storing it in his Sumeru Ring. He would then touch the body again once the stakeout was out.
Their eyes were filled with fervor, and they responded in unison:
"Yes, young master!"
The bloodstains had just been wiped away when a sharp, clear shout suddenly rang out from the alleyway entrance:
"Stop! What are you doing!"
