When the housekeeper heard this, he took a few steps back, looked surprised, and said, "How did you find out?"
Zhang Beichen said with a smile: "People are good at pretending to others, but people will let down their guard against animals. This Feixue horse is the king of horses, and its price is precious. This horse must be ridden by Lord An Guo himself."
"After this horse was handed over to you, it obviously recognized you as its owner and was very close to you. In addition to your previous performance, you were present wherever An Guojun appeared. Only when An Guojun looked at you many times did I know for sure. You are the real An Guojun!"
An Guojun looked at Zhang Beichen in surprise and said, "I have indeed been negligent, but it would be really embarrassing for me to deceive you as well!"
Zhang Beichen stepped forward with his sword and forced him: "Mr. An Guo, you have no way out!"
An Guojun calmly said: "Zhang Beichen, I am in the ninth realm. With your strength, it is difficult to assassinate me, let alone a head-on confrontation?"
"So I prepared the poison in advance. I was just talking to you to delay time!" Zhang Beichen said with a smile.
Only then did An Guojun notice that a pile of discarded fodder was burning in the racecourse, which seemed to be a kind of drug.
An Guojun tried to use his spiritual power, only to find that his spiritual power was blocked and his strength weakened. Zhang Beichen had obviously used the antidote a long time ago and was not affected at all.
An Guojun was really a little panicked at this time, and then said: "Zhang Beichen, what benefits did King Yan give you? Are you so loyal to her? I am not kind to you!"
"If you attack me here, you won't be able to leave alive!"
"Who said that?" Zhang Beichen said with a smile, "An Guojun, you have to know that you are just a housekeeper now! Even if An Guojun knows that you are dead, he will not make a big move. On the contrary, he will thank me!"
After hearing his words, An Guojun was really panicked!
He has always presented himself as a false person, and most people in the house do not know his true identity. If he really died and his substitute followed suit, he might have died in vain!
"Come here, I am An Guojun, help me!" An Guojun also ignored his image and shouted loudly while running away.
The guards rushed over after hearing the news, and Zhang Beichen stepped forward to fight with An Guojun.
An Guojun's methods are extraordinary, but how can Zhang Beichen be a simple person? He has been promoted to the Holy Realm several times, and even reached the Imperial Realm!
In addition, An Guojun was unable to mobilize his spiritual power. With just a few moves, Zhang Beichen subdued An Guojun.
At this time, a guard arrived, Zhang Beichen cut through the mess with a sharp sword, and killed An Guojun with one sword!
"Bold!" The guards surrounded him. At this time, the fake An Guojun arrived with his retainers.
The guards said to An Guojun: "Sir, Zhang Beichen killed the housekeeper! We saw it with our own eyes!"
An Guojun lost his usual composure, his face was a little panicked, and he asked: "Zhang Beichen, why did you want to kill him?"
Zhang Beichen said calmly: "My lord, the housekeeper actually claimed that he was the real Lord An Guo and said that you were a fake. I got angry and killed him!"
"The guards around me heard it just now! He said he was Lord An Guo!"
The guards nodded, they had indeed heard this.
"An Guojun" looked uncertain, and at this moment his heart was in a state of confusion. He knew that what the butler said was true. The butler was the real person and he was just a substitute!
But at this moment, the real person is dead, and few people know that he is a substitute!
A bold thought arose in his mind. He was a third-class guest, and could only make a living in Lord An Guo's house.
The reason why An Guojun recruited him was because he was handsome and could pretend to be himself.
Now that the real body is dead, can't he take his place?
Thinking of this, "An Guojun" couldn't help but feel excited. An Guojun is a lord of a fiefdom, and he will never achieve this status in ten lifetimes!
Now, An Guojun's position is easily accessible.
"My lord, I just got rid of the traitor for my lord. Please tell me a lesson!" Zhang Beichen continued to say to "Mr. An Guo".
An Guojun finally made up his mind. He imitated the tone of the previous An Guojun and said calmly: "The steward should be killed for treason. But Zhang Beichen, you are too impulsive. Since you are loyal to me, I will not punish you this time." , don’t do it again in the future.”
"Come here, burn this traitor with fire!"
Zhang Beichen thought to himself, this counterfeit is really cautious. He will not let An Guojun die, but also burns the body, is he afraid that he will fake it?
In this way, An Guojun's body was cremated in full view of the public.
The counterfeiter himself is also very panicked. An Guojun is not a simple thing. Those cronies who control the military know who he really is. If they know that the real An Guojun has been killed, he will definitely be finished!
So he said to Zhang Beichen: "Zhang Beichen, you come with me."
"Yes, my lord!"
The impostor brought Zhang Beichen into the room and asked tentatively: "Zhang Beichen, what else did the housekeeper tell you before he died?"
Zhang Beichen stared at him and said, "I have said everything that needs to be said!"
"What do you mean?" The counterfeiter felt a little guilty when he saw it.
Zhang Beichen simply stopped pretending and said, "He is Lord An Guo, you are just his retainer and substitute!"
An Guojun said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Stop pretending!" Zhang Beichen laughed, "I have already killed him, and now we are grasshoppers on the same rope!"
The counterfeit face looked uncertain, and then said: "I can execute you now!"
"Then do whatever you want. If I die, you won't be able to survive!" Zhang Beichen said confidently, "If I guess correctly, An Guojun's cronies will soon find out that he is dead. You are just lying after all, they I will support An Guojun’s heirs to succeed to the throne, but it will definitely not be you!”
"What do you want to do?" the impostor asked again.
"It's very simple!" Zhang Beichen said, "I am from King Yan, and I just want Lord An to disappear, or in other words, to make that disobedient Lord An disappear!"
"Now it is true that An Guojun is dead. The only one who can protect you is King Yan!"
"As long as you surrender to King Yan, you can continue to be your Lord An. Of course, King Yan will help you eliminate those cronies of his!"
"Are you going to be a wronged soul, or are you going to live a life of glory and wealth? I think it should be an easy choice, right?"
The impostor didn't think for long. In fact, he had no choice at all. His only backer is An Guojun. Now that An Guojun is dead, he can only rely on King Yan to survive.
Thinking of this, he said: "I want to see King Yan!"
"Okay!" Zhang Beichen took him to see Yan Qingwu.
…
In the room, Yan Qingwu has been worried about Zhang Beichen.
Zhang Beichen said she might take action today, but she has been feeling uneasy since then.
"What's wrong with me? Why am I worried about him? That bastard!"
"What if something happens to him? Do I want to avenge him?"
"Can he really succeed?"
Yan Qingwu wanted to go out and have a look, but she was being monitored all the time. Worried that she would sabotage Zhang Beichen's actions, she kept waiting in the room.
After a while, I heard noises in the house.
Yan Qingwu knew that Zhang Beichen had probably taken action and caused a commotion in the mansion.
She wanted to go out even more, and wanted to know how Zhang Beichen was doing?
As for An Guojun's life or death, she didn't care that much.
Yan Qingwu paced back and forth in the room, extremely nervous.
"Unfortunately, I can't wait like this! If he encounters danger... Although this guy is very rude to me, he is my king after all, and if he dies, I won't be able to survive here... "Yan Qingwu made excuses for herself.
She took out the hairpin and tried to sneak out of the room.
Just then, she heard a sound coming from outside.
"Hello, sir." It was the voice of the maids.
Hearing this, Yan Qingwu panicked: "An Guojun is still alive, so Zhang Beichen failed?"
She then heard Lord An Guo's voice, asking the maid: "Is King Yan still here?"
"Yes, she has been staying in the room." The maid answered truthfully.
At this moment, Yan Qingwu felt a burst of unknown fire in her heart. Zhang Beichen must have failed and was killed by him!
Otherwise, An Guojun would not be able to come here safe and sound!
"Damn it, his life belongs to me, none of you can kill him!" Yan Qingwu clenched the hairpin with murderous intent on her face.
She was ready to kill An Guojun with one blow as soon as he appeared! Even if he is killed, he will not hesitate!
The door was pushed open, and An Guojun was about to walk in when a figure struck him.
"Be careful!" Zhang Beichen realized something was wrong and stepped forward to stop Yan Qingwu.
"Zhang Beichen?" Yan Qingwu looked at the other party in confusion, and then became angry again. She assassinated An Guojun herself. Why did Zhang Beichen help him stop him?
"You betrayed me?" Yan Qingwu asked.
"Your Majesty, don't be anxious!" Zhang Beichen closed the door, let An Guojun walk in, and then immediately set up the spiritual barrier.
Yan Qingwu looked angry and said, "What on earth are you doing?"
Zhang Beichen explained: "The real An Guojun is dead! He is a fake!"
The counterfeiter didn't deny it either.
"What's going on?" Yan Qingwu became confused.
Zhang Beichen briefly explained what happened, and she suddenly woke up.
"So that's the case. Why didn't you tell me earlier? It would have harmed me..."
"What's wrong, Your Majesty?" Zhang Beichen asked.
"It's nothing." Yan Qingwu felt a little guilty and could not say that she was worried about him.
At this time, the counterfeiter stepped forward and said to Yan Qingwu: "I pay homage to King Yan. Lord An Guo has done evil and disrespected the monarch, so he deserves to die!"
Yan Qingwu calmed down her mind, put on her airs as a king again, and said, "It's not impossible if you want me to save you, or even keep you rich and prosperous for the rest of your life."
"If the king has any instructions, just give them!" the impostor said quickly.
Yan Qingwu said: "It's very simple. Cooperate with me, clear out those who want to rebel, and hand over your military power. You will be considered to have made great contributions to the Yan State. I can guarantee that you will become a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households."
The counterfeiter was overjoyed. Being treated like this was beyond his imagination, and he quickly said: "I will definitely do as I am told!"
