Chapter 670: Being intercepted and killed

After returning home, Shengze still felt like he was falling into the clouds and his whole body was light.

When Ling Yun came back from outside, what he saw was Shengze standing in the yard, smiling slightly as he looked at the Shen family yard.

What's wrong with the master? Why is it like this? To be honest, he felt that his master's current smile looked really...a bit silly.

"Master, there is news from the Shadow Guards." Ling Yun thought that he could not make his master stupid, so he quickly walked behind him and whispered.

As soon as Shengze heard Ling Yun's name, he knew something was serious.

His expression instantly became normal and returned to his usual cold and distant look, "What's the matter?"

As he spoke, he turned around and walked into the house.

Ling Yun followed him and waited until he entered Shengze's room before speaking.

"Sheng Zhan somehow learned of your identity. He sent people to northern Hubei a month ago, but they were intercepted and killed by our people on the way."

Now that the six northwest states are in the hands of King Zhao, it is very inconvenient for the Shadow Guards to deliver the news. This news was only seven days ago.

Sheng Ze frowned, "What is Sheng Zhan's plan?"

If Cheng San's identity was exposed, Sheng Zhan must have thought that something was wrong with Liang Cheng.

"On the surface, he sent a distant relative of the former Duke Cheng'en to announce the decree, hoping that General Liang would hand over his military power. Secretly, he sent hundreds of masters to accompany him, hoping to kill you in northern Hubei."

Ling Yun sneered in his heart, did Sheng Zhan think he could still plot against his master? If he hadn't used the Queen to plot against them before, how could he sit on the throne?

Shengze pursed his lips, "How much did the Shadow Guards lose?"

Ling Yun was slightly stunned when he heard this, but quickly replied: "Twelve people were killed, thirty-eight were seriously injured, and fifty were slightly injured."

"Sheng Zhan will not give up easily. Send an order to the Shadow Guard to let them come over next time." Sheng Ze frowned.

The Shadow Guards was a force left to him by his father, and was only loyal to his father and him. He had been plotted by Sheng Zhan before, and the Shadow Guards did not dare to act rashly.

Later, because Sheng Zhan confirmed his "death" to the outside world, the Shadow Guards were deceived and retreated to the dark until he contacted them in Beijing last time.

There are only a few hundred people in the entire Shadow Guard Department, and each one of them is an elite among the elite. They died trying to intercept and kill the people sent by Sheng Zhan. Some of them are overqualified and underused.

"Why?" Ling Yun was puzzled, "They want to kill the master, and if they are allowed to come over, how should we deal with it?"

Except for a few people here, no one knows the identity of the master, but if people from the court come, the identity of the master will definitely not be concealed.

Shengze said calmly: "I have my own way."

Northern Hubei is already equivalent to his territory. If he can be injured by Sheng Zhan's people here, then he will be too useless.

Ling Yun stood there, frowning and thinking for a long time.

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

It wasn't until Shengze opened his mouth to chase people away that Ling Yun came back to his senses, "Then third brother, you must tell me what to do in advance?"

Shengze hummed lightly and raised the corners of his mouth slightly again.

Ling Yun instantly understood that the master was thinking about things related to Miss Six again.

He didn't dare to stay here anymore and quickly returned to his room.

Alas, I don’t know when the master will get married to Miss Six. The master is already twenty-one this year.

Ling Yun had no idea that he was two years older than Sheng Ze. Even if he got married, he should be the first.

…

On the sixth day of May, the high temperature in northern Hubei continued, but because the rivers originating from Chengjin Mountain did not stop flowing, the farming in northern Hubei was not affected too much.

The people rushed around telling their relatives where to go to fetch water to irrigate the fields.

"Today's six updates are complete."
