"presumptuous!"
Qin Zhou shouted loudly, and the blade in his hand was already pressed against Hu Chong's neck. ..
To Qin Zhou, these words were disrespectful to His Highness.
As a long-time right-winger, how could he be tolerated?
In fact, when he met Hu Chong and Pei Bi halfway up the mountain, he was already on guard.
He didn't know why His Highness trusted these two people so much. However, in his opinion, these two people were really suspicious.
Especially thinking that when His Highness was about to go down the mountain, he was stopped by this person. No matter how you look at it, this move has ulterior motives.
What does it mean that His Highness cannot leave Shannan Road alive?
At best, this sentence is a reminder, at worst, it is a curse!
Out of caution against Hu Chong, Qin Zhou took action without thinking.
Facing the tip of the knife pressing against his neck, Hu Chong's expression changed, but he did not dodge.
On the contrary, Hu Fang immediately knelt down and begged: "Your Highness, brother, he has no ill intentions. Please calm down!"
After saying that, she stared at her brother hard again.
How long has it been since this happened? Brother, can’t he speak clearly if he has something to say?
If His Highness gets angry and kills him directly, then there will be nothing left!
Facing Hu Fang's gaze, Hu Chong looked away. The younger sister had always been aggressive, so he was said to be scared.
When Zheng Ji saw this, his expression did not change, and he did not signal Qin Zhou to withdraw the knife. He just raised his chin and said calmly: "Tell me carefully."
Regardless of whether Hu Chong's words were a sincere reminder or alarmist, I have to say that these words successfully attracted her attention.
She really wanted to know, if she didn't kill Ling Hanxiao, why couldn't she leave Shannan Road alive?
Although she doesn't like Ling Hanxiao, and she does know that this person will be harmful to the court in the future, but now...
She had no contact with Ling Hanxiao, let alone any hatred.
In other words, the relationship between her and Ling Hanxiao was not at a life-or-death level.
Therefore, Hu Chong should have known something before he said this.
Hu Chong sighed and said: "Your Highness, Ling Hanxiao forced me into Lishan Mountain just to kill me without anyone noticing..."
He knew Ling Hanxiao's murderous intention, but he had to come. Because both his sister and cousin had been kidnapped to Mount Li.
"I am just curious as to why Ling Hanxiao is murdering you now?"
Hu Fang and Xu had been taken captive to Lishan for some time, but they were still alive. It was only at this time that Hu Chong and Pei Bi were forced into Lishan.
Time dragged on for too long.
If she were Ling Hanxiao, she would have killed Hu Chong long ago, why wait until now?
"Your Highness, I... they are trying to hide the clues in my hands. They don't know where the clues in my hands are hidden, so they have never dared to provoke us. Now... the clues I have are irrelevant. Killing me is just part of their grand plan. It’s just a part of it.”
"Big plan?"
"Yes, their big plan is..." Hu Chong met Zheng Ji's eyes and said without hesitation: "Kill His Highness!"
The knife in Qin Zhou's hand trembled, but he looked at Zheng Ji and held it down.
Zheng Ji's attention was only focused on two words: "Them?"
"Yes, it's Ling Hanxiao and his gang." Hu Chong replied directly.
Every time he mentioned Ling Hanxiao, there was uncontrollable hatred in his eyes.
"Since it is a big plan, it must be very secret. How did you know about it?"
Zheng Ji didn't care that someone was plotting to kill her. With the power she had now, there were many people who wanted her dead.
Not less than a Linghanxiao.
She was just very curious as to why Hu Chong had such great ability, knowing both the arsenal and Ling Hanxiao's plan - are these all true?
"Your Highness, to be honest, I have a unique skill, that is, I am good at hiding. My ability to check news
, should be one of the best among Shannan Guards. "
Hu Chong closed his eyes and said, "This is my ability, my luck, and at the same time, my misfortune."
He prided himself on his ability to hide, which is why he went to the mountains and entered the general's mansion, and learned many things that his status should not be able to know.
When he went to Lishan, he just wanted to find out how many bandits there were in Liyun Village, how powerful they were, and why Shannan Guard failed to suppress the bandits many times.
Unexpectedly, I discovered that Liyun Village actually had an armory!
He went into the General's Mansion overnight to report the matter to Ling Hanxiao, but found that the leader of the thieves he had seen in Liyun Village actually appeared in the General's Mansion, and they had a great chat with Ling Hanxiao!
At that moment, he suddenly understood many things.
It was also because he was too shocked that he, who had unparalleled concealment skills, showed his signs, and was finally noticed by Ling Hanxiao.
Although he escaped in time, he could no longer settle down as the captain of Lingzhou.
It is never a good thing for a person to know too many secrets.
And a military general who knows too many secrets is even more miserable.
Especially, he looked extremely weak in front of Ling Hanxiao, the behemoth of General Shannanwei.
For example, giant elephants and ants.
Before Zheng Ji's arrival, Hu Chong was suffering while hiding, and on the other hand he found more clues.
"After Fang'er and the others disappeared, I once again sneaked into the General's Mansion, where I overheard them discussing how to deal with His Highness... There is someone behind Ling Hanxiao!"
Hu Chong really didn't understand why Ling Hanxiao was so bold. He not only colluded with the bandits, but also set up a private arsenal, and even dared to set up a trap to murder Princess Changding!
This is Princess Changding, the emperor’s favorite daughter!
Even if they dare to murder a princess, what else can they not dare to do?
"I heard them discussing taking advantage of the bandit suppression to create an accident, causing His Highness to be unfortunately killed by the bandits... I also heard them saying that if His Highness's martial arts skills failed, then they would set up an ambush at His Highness's residence. Poison and kill His Highness and the soldiers led by Chang Ding..."
How many soldiers did Changding lead?
The total amount is only four thousand!
There were 100,000 Shannan Guard soldiers. Even if Ling Hanxiao could mobilize only one of the ten soldiers, it would still be an extremely large number.
Under such circumstances, what use can the tiger talisman in His Highness Changding's hand be used?
The disparity in power meant that Ling Hanxiao would not give up until His Highness was killed!
That's why Hu Chong said what he said before.
"It sounds like this, I have a reason to kill Ling Hanxiao... But why should I believe you?"
To put it another way, even if what Hu Chong said was true, why could she kill Ling Hanxiao if she stayed on Lishan Mountain?
Hu Chong was silent for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and gave up: "Your Highness, because... you have to believe me! Because only I know where the weapons in the arsenal were finally transported!"
