Chapter Thirty-six The brave and loyal

Night falls slowly, and when the last ray of sunset quietly disappears, bonfires gradually rise in the camps stationed on the outskirts, and a few stars appear in the sky, until the night is completely enveloped.

Although it was late spring, there was still a chill in the suburbs of the imperial city. The night was beautiful and quiet, but there seemed to be a little desolation in the suburbs of the imperial city. It was not until late at night that the soldiers gradually fell asleep, leaving some soldiers on duty in the tents.

Abide by your responsibilities externally.

In this huge imperial city, the royal guards led by General Huang Chizhong can loyally serve the current emperor. In the camp, General Huang is holding a bamboo slip and reading with concentration. Huang Chizhong is less than thirty, with a strong physique and a handsome appearance.

He is not handsome, and his skin is a little yellowish or even dark, but his eyes are bright and full of determination.

Among the grass, a man in black clothes was hiding in the darkness, observing everything here. Taking advantage of the gap between guards' shifts, he shuttled quickly, found the general's tent, and sneaked into General Huang's tent quietly, but Huang Chizhong was already there.

He noticed it, but General Huang was still a step too late, and the dagger was already on his neck.

"Who are you? What are the consequences for breaking into the military camp without permission?" Although the dagger was held across his neck, Huang Chizhong remained neither humble nor overbearing and was not frightened.

The other party untied the black scarf and put down the dagger in his hand. When Huang Chizhong saw the other party, his pupils dilated. He was surprised at first but then turned to disdain and said: "It's General Ji Dan? When did General Ji Dan do such sneaky things?"

"

"General Huang has always been upright, and Qingfeng is straight to the point. Qingfeng came here to ask the general for advice."

"I don't dare to ask for advice. I'm afraid that the general has a purpose for coming to my camp. If he really has a purpose, there is no harm in entering my camp to discuss it openly tomorrow!" Huang Chizhong thickened his tone.

Before he finished speaking, Qingfeng put the dagger on his neck again, and this time a blood mark was printed on his neck. "I am a great man. I have been fighting on the battlefield. Is it possible that your dagger can do anything to me? I advise Ji Dan

General, put it away quickly and don’t bluff people with your gadgets.”

"General, you have a lot of time to make achievements on the battlefield. If you die miserably today, I'm afraid your death will be a bit unfair." Qingfeng saw that the other party was merciless and restrained his previous expression.

Huang Chizhong is naturally not afraid of Ji Dan Qingfeng, but he will not fight with him head-on. After all, it is not good to get too tense. It doesn't hurt to just listen to his purpose.

"Why are you here?" Although Huang Chizhong was dissatisfied, his tone was slightly more relaxed.

"I just want General Huang to think clearly. Now the three princes are in the imperial city. If all three princes are here, what will be the situation in the world? What will happen if one of them is missing? But General Huang also knows these three princes.

I’m afraid it’s impossible to lose anyone’s power. I just don’t want the general to be so foolish and loyal that his future future will be ruined in vain.”

"General Ji Dan is right. Now the emperor has no control over these three princes. I, Chi Zhong, have always been loyal, so what should I fear? Even if I die in the future, I will serve my country and it will be worth it."

"I'm afraid your loyalty will cause more people to suffer. Besides, you and I don't have to say what a country is. The recognition of the people is the king. However, General Huang is also a smart man, so he can naturally think of it. If in the future,

If there is a chance, General Huang goes to Prince Li's Mansion, Prince Li will certainly welcome you, and Qian Ling and Qian Po will also be happy to see you, my senior brother."

Having said that, Qingfeng no longer forced himself and left the camp with his face covered.

On the third day, Huang Chizhong ordered the guards outside the imperial city to be removed and left the imperial city. At the same time, the guards inside the city also dispatched more people out of the city. At this time, the emperor was already unconscious. After learning the news, he immediately summoned Huang Chizhong back to the palace and

Shut away the people around you.

"General Huang, you have always been loyal, why did you disobey your orders? You don't know that they are ambitious and all of them are eyeing my position." The emperor was so angry that he wanted to sit up, but he was unable to do anything.

"Back to the imperial city, I'm just following orders." Huang Chizhong replied, half-kneeling on the ground.

"By order, by...whose...order?" He spoke incoherently and weakly.

"Of course it is the emperor's fate." A smile appeared on Huang Chizhong's lips, and he stood up, looked into the palace, and walked towards the emperor.

"Who...are...you?" At this time, the emperor could not even open his eyes, and he looked at the other person not really. "Who...are...you?" The other party did not answer.

The room suddenly became quieter, and the emperor's breathing became fainter and fainter.

General Huang hurried out of the hall, and the attendants outside learned that the emperor was dead.

=====

On the outskirts of the city, in an abandoned house, a man's hands and feet were tied, and his eyes were covered with black cloth, making it difficult to see the direction.

"You are so brave, let me go!" The man's voice was slightly rough.

"Brother, don't be angry!" A man pulled off the other person's black cloth with a smile.

"Qianpo!" The other party seemed a little surprised, and randomly cursed: "You kidnapped me, do you want to rebel?"

"Senior brother Qianren is still so old-fashioned. How can I have the courage to rebel? I haven't seen senior brother for so many years and he doesn't even miss me." He pinched Qianren's face.

"Bah, you all don't learn well. I'm not your senior brother!" Qian Ren shook off his hand and turned his head to one side, his face full of dissatisfaction.

"Brother, I'm saving you, but you still don't appreciate it." Qianpo said with a smile as before. "Now that General Huang has withdrawn his troops, who will believe you if you say you go out again."

"You are looking for someone to impersonate me?" Qian Ren seemed to find it incredible.

"I don't know who is pretending to be. Anyway, we can't let you go back during the national mourning period." Qianpo pretended to be helpless.

"You disloyal and unjust people, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of my master." As he spoke, Qian Ren had already broken away from the rope, but when he was about to use force, he found that he could not exert any strength.

"Brother, just stay here and catch up on old times after we haven't seen each other for many years!" Qianpo patted Qianren's shoulder and tightened the rope tighter again.

Qian Ren knew that he wouldn't be able to escape for a while, so he sighed and said, "Qian Ling, are brothers Qian Yu okay?!"

"You really only care about the two brothers!" Qianpo said unconvinced.

"Among these junior brothers, you are the most honest, so of course you don't have to worry about them. Their brothers are withdrawn and they are still the same after so many years!"

"Senior brother, if you are really worried about us, you can just follow King Li and it won't be a big deal!" Qian Po continued.

"I will not follow King Li even if I die, so just give up!" Qian Ren said angrily.
