Early the next morning.
Just like yesterday, before midnight, a Tengu army came outside Linchuan City again, dropped a hundred sacks and then walked away.
Compared with yesterday, the defenders on the city wall today were obviously mentally prepared, so they were not scared again.
But even so, this "inhumane" massacre still made many soldiers feel chills.
On the one hand, they are angry.
On the other hand, they are also afraid.
Facing the arrogant Wei Changtian, both emotions have their reasons.
And the one who feels this most deeply is probably Su Qi...
The morning sun has not yet appeared, and there is silence in the Su Mansion at this moment. The fragrance of earth lingers on the dewy leaf tips, fresh and sad.
Su Qi stayed up all night yesterday, thinking about the "deal" proposed by Wei Changtian.
Within ten days, let Jing Guoqing come to Sichuan.
Otherwise, there will no longer be Linchuan City in the world...
Ten days, no, only nine days left now.
From the capital to Linchuan, it takes at least five or six days just on the road.
But Su Qi hasn't made up his mind yet.
In fact, if it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't be so entangled now.
No matter from which point of view, the best way to deal with this matter is to report it to Jing Guoqing truthfully, and then mobilize all the strength to fight Wei Changtian.
Not to mention that Wei Changtian may not really have the ability to massacre Linchuan City.
Even if it could be done, the only people who would die would be ordinary people.
Although tens of thousands of people were killed and hundreds of thousands died, it cannot be said to be insignificant, but at least it would not hurt the bones.
But if Wei Changzhen is allowed to kill Jing Guoqing, then the generals will undoubtedly fall into the crisis of national subjugation.
Therefore, this does not seem to be such a difficult choice.
But it was extremely difficult for Su Qi.
To put it bluntly, he was afraid that Wei Changtian could and would really dare to massacre the city...
"Dongdongdong."
"Sir, there are hundreds more corpses outside the city."
There was a knock on the door, and a guard in black pushed the door open and entered the room. He walked quickly to Su Qi and asked softly:
"There are a lot of rumors among the city's army. I don't know how to deal with it?"
"Well, let them talk about it."
Shaking his head, Su Qi sighed helplessly.
He paused for a moment, then asked the attendant in black: "Is there any reply from the capital?"
"Sir, your Majesty already knows what happened yesterday."
The attendant lowered his head and replied: "His Majesty's oral message just came from the Confidential Academy this morning, saying that this matter does not need to be pursued further, and that everything is based on the overall situation."
"Is it......"
Su Qi smiled bitterly, as if he had expected this answer.
Those ten assassins made it clear that they were instructed by others to assassinate Wei Changtian.
Jing Guoqing didn't know who was behind the scenes and didn't dare to investigate.
After all, the current situation is special. Daqian still needs these ten people to deal with Wei Changtian, so he can only swallow his anger for the time being and pretend that nothing happened.
Wei Changtian's ten-day period...
A mysterious person whose identity is unknown...
Turning his head and looking out the window, Su Qi was confused by the complicated situation.
But he also knows that everything has its priorities.
But for me, the most important thing right now is...
"Practice ink."
With a soft command, Su Qi slowly adjusted his clothes.
"I want to write a letter to His Majesty."
"..."
...
Obviously, Su Qi did not "betray" Jing Guoqing in the end.
Or at least he can't do such things as "treason" yet.
This undoubtedly means that he will completely break up with Wei Changtian and fight to the death.
And the latter actually had expected this.
"Son."
On the swaying carriage, Li Zimu and Wei Changtian, who had returned to Linchuan City from the Tengu Army Company Camp, were preparing to go somewhere.
Looking at Wei Changtian with a calm expression, Li Zimu asked in a low voice:
"Today is the second day, but there is still no news from Su Qi..."
"Master, if this is what I think, he will not lure Jing Guoqing to come to Sichuan."
"......I know."
Nodding, Wei Changtian replied with a normal expression: "I didn't think he would do what I said at all."
"Is it?"
His expression became a little surprised, and Li Zimu asked again with a slight doubt: "Why did the young master still put forward this condition at that time?"
"You have to make him mentally prepared first."
Wei Changtian smiled: "Su Qi is not resisting now because he has not yet been forced to the point of desperation."
"When Liu Shi and the others come back with the monsters in two days, he won't be able to control them anymore."
"But in this case, Su Qi will definitely plan in advance and intend to strike first."
Li Zimu frowned: "Sir, why don't we stay in the Tengu Army for the next two days? There is always some danger in the city."
"It doesn't matter."
Wei Changtian waved his hand: "He knows that it is extremely difficult to kill me, so he will definitely not take action immediately. He will definitely delay it for a few days in order to arrange a sure-kill situation."
"There are also the Tengu Army outside the city, which is enough to give him a headache."
"So don't worry too much these days."
"Um......"
After a soft response, Li Zimu agreed with Wei Changtian's statement, but still believed that they should not take the risk.
But now that Wei Changtian had made up his mind, she couldn't persuade her anymore, so she just changed the topic and said:
"By the way, sir, I thought about Huo Tianyang's matter again last night and felt..."
"ah!"
Suddenly, with a soft cry from Li Zimu, the speeding carriage suddenly slowed down and stopped without warning.
The horse neighed harshly, and Zhang San's shouts immediately followed.
"Hold!"
"Don't you have eyes?!"
"Get out of here!"
"..."
The voice was loud and the tone was very rude.
Although Zhang San was usually respectful in front of Wei Changtian, he was even more cowardly in front of Li Suyue.
But when facing others, he still maintains his usual style of "outlaw gangster". To say "arrogant and domineering" is not too much.
After hearing his shout, Wei Changtian also opened the car curtain and frowned and asked:
"What's wrong?"
"Master!"
Pointing to an old beggar standing only half a foot in front of the carriage, Zhang San explained:
"Just now this person suddenly ran over from the side of the road. If the villain hadn't reacted in time, he might have hit him."
"oh."
Glancing at the frightened old beggar, Wei Changtian didn't take it seriously and casually ordered: "Let's go."
"yes......"
In response, Zhang San turned his head and glared at the old beggar.
"You are lucky today! My young master will not argue with you!"
"Step aside!"
"...Ah, yes, yes."
With a jolt of energy, the old beggar seemed to have come to his senses and hurriedly rolled and crawled to the side of the road.
After he got out of the way, Zhang San didn't waste any time. With a wave of his whip, the carriage soon started to move slowly again.
The black carriage disappeared at the end of the street not long after, and the people watching the excitement dispersed, not even saying a few words.
Your young master's carriage almost ran into an old beggar with no eyesight. If he killed the person, or your noble master used his power to bully others, it would still have some value as a conversation piece.
But now it was just an ordinary little accident.
but......
"interesting......"
Looking at the direction in which the carriage was leaving, the old beggar muttered to himself, his expression showing a playfulness that did not belong to his status at all.
