Chapter 93
The bronze bell was already being used at the mont of Anjou’s sense of danger, but perhaps he didn’t even have the ti or the power to summon it.
The huge gap in realms was sothing that couldn’t be crossed over in the vast majority of the ti.
“”Let’s go!””
An Zhan shouted towards Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye, then the surroundings sank into darkness.
At the very beginning, the destructive strike had destroyed half of the military base. The torches, lanterns, and candles were lit up in that instant.
It was also at this ti that An Zhe saw Gu Qianye and Qu Liuxi in the distance, and he imdiately shouted.
Gu Qian Ye instantly lost his strength, but Qu Liuxi displayed her most calm side at this mont.
The mont the fire was about to die down, she shouted to An Zaiyue to be careful, then quickly left with Gu Qianye in her arms.
Not long after the two of them left, many experts from the Infantry Division gathered from all directions.
General Solitary Falcon and Wang Kai-tai flew over from afar, thrusting out a palm forward. “”Open!””
A magnificent gale rolled over, strangely suppressing the dust.
This was a very unreasonable and unreasonable thing to say. The wind should have lifted up the dust, but after the wind blew, the sky beca clear.
All the flying dust and dust were pressed down onto the ground by a powerful force, and their line of sight imdiately beca wide open.
Wang Kai-tai was the first to arrive, followed by General Ying Yang, who was also of the fourth rank.
Wang Kai-tai was the first to rush to An Zeng’s side, while Fang Dao stood beside Old Sun, who was already dead.
Monts later, nurous figures flew over and quickly stood in their positions. Although they appeared to be scattered, they ford an extrely sharp and smooth formation.
“”The commanding officer will stay behind.”” The supervising officer will stay behind.
Wang Kaitai waved his hand, and the crowd dispersed.
“”What’s going on?””
Wang Kai-tai glanced back at Old Sun’s mangled body.
An Zhan shook his head, “”I don’t know what exactly happened either. If I’m not wrong, soone tried to kill , but I was blocked by Old Sun and his disciple, Liu Guang.””
When I was drinking with Six-Pack, Old Sun suddenly called out to when he ca in.
Then Six-Pack died, his head pierced by a sharp knife.
Following which, Old Sun rushed out of the room and started fighting with the people outside. After that, the surrounding rooms collapsed.
Fang Dao crouched down to look at Old Sun’s corpse. “”He was crushed to death by a very strong force, and his ridians and bones were all shattered. What a domineering force.””
Wang Kai-tai asked, “”Old Sun and Six-Pack are both dead. Why do you think they ca to kill you?””
An Zhan shook his head. “”Because I’m here.””
Wang Kai-tai’s reply sounded a bit vague, but he soon responded, “”Yes … If the person who ca here intentionally killed Old Sun and Six-Pack, there was no need to do it today.””
General Fang and I just ca back from the house together. Sothing happened before we even entered the main entrance of the Military Departnt. “”
“”Perhaps it’s because he knows that there won’t be many soldiers remaining tonight, that’s why he made his move today.””
Wang Kaitai still wanted to ask sothing, but in the distance, two Captain Qianji quickly ran back. The two n knelt down on one knee and said, “”General, sothing happened … Soone just reported that at least four officials of our military departnt died tonight, but the people who ca to report said that the deceased committed suicide.””
Wang KaiTai looked at Fang Dao, who walked over with a solemn face. “”Soone is taking advantage of Lord God Shang Shu’s departure. Everyone is in a ss, are they trying to kill off the n from our Infantry Division?””
Wang Kai-tai recalled the suicidal people. “”There was a man in the Division of martial arts, and a man in the Departnt for Purging Officials. They were all very important mbers of the Military Affairs Departnt.””
There were two other things to do, and one of them was an outsider.
Although the last two positions are not high, they are very important. “”
Fang Dao turned to look in the direction of the Imperial Palace. “”So people’s faces are too ugly.””
Wang Kai-tai said, “”You an …””
Fang Dao waved his hand. “”Don’t say it, it’s aningless.””
“”An Zaiyue, co with . Old Wang, lead so people to clean up and see if there are any more wounded who can be cured.””
Wang KaiTai said, “”In the military prison, there was only one person who was locked up. The people in charge all went to the Shangshu Mansion to help, and only Old Sun and Six-Pack were left as guards. There won’t be any other casualties.””
He walked to Fang Dazhang’s side. “”You an the people who ca are really here for the sake of peace?””
Fang Dao nodded. “”The Assistant Minister took great pains to resolve the matter of the Martial Arts Academy.””
But if the person involved dies peacefully in our military prison, no matter how sincere the Assistant Minister’s words are, the commoners won’t believe that this has nothing to do with our military.
“”At that ti, those people who want to destroy the Military Departnt can also take the chance to say that we killed them and silence them … Looking at it now, I’m afraid that Master Shang Shu’s death has so sort of secret.””
Wang KaiTai clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with killing intent. “”This bunch of scum!””
Fang Dao patted him on the shoulder and said, “”Steady, we can’t be the first to fall into chaos.””
Tonight, I don’t believe that anyone would dare to make a move against .
“”You are in charge of other matters in the Military Departnt. Additionally … please invite the Assistant Minister back.””
Wang Kai-Tai said, “”But I can’t leave Master Shang Shu’s house either.””
Fang Dao shook his head. “”If those people are truly at the point of insanity, I’m afraid that Lord Vice Minister won’t be safe either.””
Wang KaiTai imdiately turned around and said, “”Send a team of ensign Qianji to follow to Master Shang Shu’s mansion. Everyone else, continue your search.””
Fang Dao pointed at a house in the distance that was still in good condition and said to An Zhan, “”Co, follow over there.””
An Zhan followed Fang Dao in silence, his mind filled with thoughts of Chen Zaiyan.
Was Chen Zeyan really one of the empress dowager’s n?
If so, he had a reason for killing the master.
If he was not one of the Empress Dowager’s people, then the death of His Excellency Shang Shu might have nothing to do with him.
Judging from Wang Kai-tai’s and Fang Daozhong’s reactions, they did not doubt Chen’s words in the slightest.
However, when An Zaiyan recalled the look in Chen Zaiyan’s eyes before he left, he felt that there must be a connection between him and Lord Shang Shu’s death.
But there was no proof, just a feeling.
The road led Anjou straight into a room. The furnishings in the room were simple and unadorned except for the necessary furniture.
“”Sit down.””
The square path lay on its side on the bed, just within reach of his knife.
It was a blade without a sheath. Under the sowhat dim light of the candle fla, the blade was like a small, gurgling stream, as if it was alive.
After Fang Dao said ‘sit down’, he didn’t say anything else and rested with his head against the quilt with his eyes closed.
An Zeng sat down on a chair near the window, staring blankly at the ruins and the torches outside.
“”Never experienced such a thing?””
Fang Dao suddenly asked.
An Zeng shook his head, “”I’ve experienced it before. I ca from Fringe City. Although I didn’t go to the southeastern border, I never saw a day when I was safe.””
On the surface, our relationship with the State of Zhao seems to be harmonious, but in reality, there is also a lot of hidden friction.
At the border, the border army of Zhao was living a miserable life. They had no choice but to change into the clothes of ordinary citizens and pretend to be bandits as they looted the villages and towns of the Yan Kingdom and the caravan.
Fang Dao sneered, “”Do you think that the border army of Zhao had no choice but to do this because of the hardships they’ve been living?””
An Xuan slowly shook his head again. “”Of course not. The State of Zhao did it on purpose.””
The State of Zhao deliberately treated the border army with harshness, keeping the border army in a state similar to a hungry wolf for a long ti.
In this way, the border army of Zhao would have to harass the villages and towns of Yan and Zhuoguo border cities.
“”This is how the State of Zhao raises the killing intent of the border army. They will not let the border army and the Yan Country’s border army get on good terms, because if there is a war between the two countries, the killing intent of the border army will be weakened and the killing of the enemies on the battlefield will be hesitant.””
Fang Dao’s eyes lit up. “”You’ve seen it clearly. No wonder Lord Shang Shu only saw you once and praised you endlessly.””
An Zaixin replied, “”It’s not that I saw it clearly. The border army has seen it clearly, as well as many people within the imperial court. However, their relationship with the State of Zhao has to be maintained.””
The Yan Country’s position was sowhat awkward. Zhuohe was to the west, Zhao was to the southwest, Tyrant and Yongguo were to the south, Youguo was to the southeast, and BoHai was to the northeast.
“”In such a narrow space, if our relations with our neighbors were not good, our country would not be able to survive for a long ti.””
Fang Lu bluntly said, “”So, this is the sa as living people. You are surrounded by people, so you need to maintain your friendliness and your enmity with so people.””
“”But there is one thing that cannot be abandoned, and that is one’s duty as a human being.””
“”What is duty?””
Fang Dao straightforwardly replied, “”To say that good and evil are a little empty, but these are indeed the most basic things.””
An Zaihai turned his head to look at Fang Daohong, then smiled helplessly. “”People in the governnt say that good and evil are clear, it seems a little laughable.””
Fang Dao said no more, returning to his cold and sowhat aloof appearance.
His knife lay quietly beside him, like his best friend, his closest companion.
The night passed without a word. At daybreak, the officer in charge of cleaning up and guarding didn’t find the injured person. Only Old Sun and Six-Pack were dead.
Anne sat by the window all night, watching the moon leave and the sun co.
It had to be said that Chen Zaiyan was a person who did things quickly and decisively. When the sun rose, a large number of artisans had already entered the military to clear out the ruins.
All around him were the commanding officer who was on alert. Outside of the military headquarters, the murderous lieutenant, Qianji, patrolled back and forth.
About half an hour later, a group of about eight hundred elite cavalryn entered the Infantry Division. Their faces were expressionless, and their bodies emitted a cold air.
It was obvious at a glance that these cavalryn had fought on the battlefield before.
He walked to the door and looked out at the bustling crowd. Behind him, the road seed to really be asleep.
Under such circumstances, he was still able to sleep.
Under the protection of a team of Captain Qianji, Chen Zaiyan hurriedly walked out. Seeing An Zhan standing here, he hesitated for a mont before walking towards him.
Chen Zaiyan walked in front of An Zeng and looked him up and down. There was a strange look in his eyes.
Of course, An Zui knew that Chen Zaiyan had so doubts about him, because Old Sun and Liu Guang were both Chen Zaiyan’s people.
“”It’s good that you’re fine. You should just stay in the Military Departnt for the next few days. Perhaps there will be others who will harm you.””
So people want the army to break down, but I won’t let that happen. “”
He turned around and left. “”I hope you won’t be disappointed in the Infantry Division.””
An Zhe did not speak, because he was afraid that he would not be able to hold back and directly question Chen Zaiyan. Did Shang Shu’s death have anything to do with you?
After walking a short distance away, Chen stopped and turned back to look at An Zhe. “”Prepare yourself, the King may wish to see you.””
An Zeng nodded and still didn’t say anything.
Fang Dao did not know when he had woken up. He walked to the window and poured himself a cup of water. Then he used a strange tone to mutter to himself, “”Lord Chen Shang Shu … perhaps the military will beco even purer in the future.””
An Zaiyan was lost in thought as he stared at the purple official’s robe.
