"Huang Dujian, why are you so downcast? You weren't this down when you were captured by Brother Wu last time, right?"
A playful voice sounded behind Huang Xin.
Huang Xin was so frightened that his hair stood on end. He held the Sangmen Sword and looked around in horror, looking for the source of the sound.
"Who is it! Come out!"
Huang Xin then scanned the dark corners of the room by candlelight, but found nothing. This made Huang Xin even more frightened. The unknown fear in the dark was the most terrifying.
"Supervisor Huang, look up!"
The voice sounded again.
Huang Xin suddenly raised his head and looked up at the beams. In the dim candlelight, Shi Qian was stroking his mustache and looking at Huang Xin with a smile.
"It's you! Shi Qian!"
Huang Xin saw Shi Qian's face clearly and recognized the person in an instant. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth with hatred that he was called a low-level soldier and was captured. He did not dare to forget it.
Huang Xixin was shocked. Shi Qian's identity was that of a Liangshan bandit. Liangshan was now the largest bandit den in the world. Shi Qian's appearance here meant that Liangshan was ready to attack Qingzhou.
"Are they already so brave?"
Huang Xin held the Sangmen Sword tightly, imagining dozens of big men walking out of the shadows, and how he would fight to break through.
"Don't look, it's just me."
Shi Qian laughed when he saw Huang Xin's nervous and trembling look.
"Don't even think about lying to me. You people must have a plan when you sneak into the city!"
Huang Xin, however, didn't believe Shi Qian's words at all. In his opinion, he couldn't believe a word the thief said.
"Why are you lying to me? Want to kill you? If I had stabbed you just now, you would have become a fool."
Shi Qian smiled and flashed the dagger in his hand. If he had struck out with the dagger just now, Huang Xin would be a corpse now.
"What do you want to do?"
Huang Xin was only seventy-eight percent convinced at this moment.
"Brother asked me to do some errands and stop by to take a look when passing by Qingzhou Mansion. But it seems that you didn't listen to my brother's advice."
Shi Qian looked at Huang Xin and said.
"The affairs of Qingzhou Mansion are not your business!"
Huang Xin stared at Shi Qian and said.
"I'm just kindly reminding you. If you and Qin Ming both leave the city, don't regret it in the future!"
Shi Qian sat on the beam and looked at Huang Xindao.
"What do you mean? You people from Liangshan have also entered Qingzhou?"
Huang Xin's expression changed. After listening to Shi Qian's words, it seemed that Liangshan was going to take action against Qingzhou.
"Did Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng really collude with the people from Liangshan? In addition to the original bandits from the Four Mountains, there are also people from Liangshan!"
Huang Xin suddenly had an idea that could make Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng rebellious like that. I am afraid only people from Liangshan could do it.
"Haha, not yet, but it won't necessarily be the case in the future. Forget it, seeing as you are so stupid, I might as well tell you to go take a look at Qin Ming's family papers."
After Shi Qian finished speaking, he turned over and disappeared from the rafters.
"The benefactor's family papers? Not good!"
Huang Xin was shocked and rushed out the door with the Sangmen Sword. Qin Ming was now staying in the military camp, and there was no one in charge in the house except the young and old.
When they arrived outside Qin Ming's mansion, they saw Murong Yanda's confidants already guarding the door.
"you?"
Huang Xin was shocked again. He originally thought that people from Liangshan attacked Qin Ming's mansion, but now the magistrate's cronies were guarding it.
"Captain Huang, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? Chief Qin is in the army."
The leader, Yu Hou, looked at Huang Xin and said.
"Why are you all here? Is there something going on in the governor's house?"
Huang Xin looked at Yu Hou and asked tentatively.
"Huang Dujian, these are not your responsibility. Huang Dujian should think more about strategies to suppress thieves."
Yu Hou looked at Huang Xin and sneered, looked at the sky that was about to dawn, pointed in the direction of the military camp and said.
Huang Xinxin was shocked. Everything in front of him couldn't be more clear. Murong Yanda had Qin Ming's family record under house arrest. If Qin Ming couldn't win this time, Murong Yanda would not be lenient. If Hu Yanzhuo, With Guan Sheng's kind of rebellion, Qin Ming's family would not be safe.
"So cruel!"
Huang Xinxin felt cold. Since ancient times, emperors have had the habit of placing family records of generals under house arrest during expeditions. The purpose is to prevent the generals from rebelling with their troops, but no one has done it so nakedly. People have already been sent to guard the family records before the army goes out. This Aren't you forcing Qin Ming to fight for his life?
Huang Xin didn't know how he got to the military camp. He was just thinking of various ways, but every one of them told him that he must kill all the thieves.
"What are you doing? You're out of your mind! Did you go somewhere to go to the bar?"
When Qin Ming saw Huang Xin's dejected look, he frowned and said angrily, "The war is about to begin. How can Huang Xin respond to the enemy in this state?"
"My lord, what's wrong! The prefect...the prefect's cronies have surrounded your mansion!"
Huang Xin said quickly when he saw Qin Ming.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Qin Ming was furious, and there was no such thing as a joke.
"It's true, Ben Guan, I just went there!"
Huang Xin said.
"That's unreasonable!"
Qin Ming took the mace and was about to run home. Huang Xin hurriedly followed.
"General Manager Qin, the war is about to begin. Why did you leave the military camp without permission?"
Several Yu Hou led troops to block the exit of the military camp and asked.
"I want to go home! Why did the prefect imprison my family?"
Qin Ming said angrily.
"It turns out that this is what happened. General Manager Qin misunderstood. Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng betrayed him. The magistrate was worried that thieves would sneak into the city and harm the officials' family records, so he sent someone to look after him! This is how he protects General Manager Qin!"
One person spoke.
"What thief in Qingzhou City dares to be so bold!"
Although Qin Ming was impulsive, he was not a fool. How could he believe such lies? Murong Yanda clearly used his family as a threat.
"The prefect has good intentions, Mr. Qin, don't talk nonsense!"
Those few people looked at Qin Ming with sarcastic expressions. As a military general, you must have such awareness. Wasn't the general's family under control when he led his troops out? There are so many high-ranking officials and generals in the frontier army. Aren’t all their families in Tokyo? Since there has been a general rebellion in Qingzhou Prefecture, how could they not be prepared? It's just that this time it was too explicit and not elegant at all.
"you……"
Qin Ming was furious, swung his mace and was about to fight out.
"The benefactor, calm down, calm down!"
Huang Xin saw that the gatekeepers had drawn their weapons, and Jun Zheng, who was in charge of military law, also came with his soldiers. These people obviously looked at Qin Ming with unkind expressions, and Jun Zheng was all from the prefecture.
Huang Xin finally pulled Qin Ming back to the military tent.
"Why are you blocking me?"
Qin Ming looked at Huang Xin angrily.
"My lord, those are people from the prefect. If you conflict with them, you may be accused of rebellion."
Huang Xin looked at Qin Ming and said.
"Murong Yanda, I, Qin Ming, am loyal to you, but you are so vicious. You imprisoned my family before I even left the city!"
Qin Ming yelled angrily, not only was he worried about his family, but it was also about his face.
"My lord, I'm afraid things will be difficult this time. No matter how the war goes, we can't stay in Qingzhou Mansion any longer."
Huang Xin looked at Qin Ming and said, if they lose this battle, they will not be able to return to Qingzhou, and Qin Ming's family records will not be safe; even if they win, the suspicion and estrangement will have arisen, and Qin Ming will not be able to save his face.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
Qin Ming pounded the table angrily. He didn't know this, but what could he do? Murong Yanda had long disliked him. This time he just took the opportunity to attack. If he could avoid it this time, he would not be able to avoid it next time.
