Chapter 848: Catch them all in one fell swoop

It was dark and it was not clear. Prince Shun's men rushed up and attacked, Tan Luo's men immediately fought back, and the scene suddenly became chaotic, and no one knew who was his identity.

Qin Feishi deceived Tan Luo and said that this herb was very precious. The local nomads organized a group of people to patrol. If anyone dared to dig secretly, they would kill these thieves. Moreover, the herbs dug out by the locals were only sold to the people of the Western Yue, not to the people of Darong and the people of the Northern Jin. If you want to get this herb and not cause trouble, it is best to pretend to be a Western Yue.

Therefore, Prince Shun's men rushed over and saw a group of people dressed in Western Yue serving, which was in line with what Pei Xuan said.

Pei Xuan also coaxed Prince Shun to let his subordinates change into regular clothes, saying that the people of Southern Jin who were secretly deploying defense maps were very alert and that there must be spies in the dark to investigate. If they find that the soldiers are catching up, they will definitely run away with the deployment maps, so it is best to touch them up and catch them all in one go.

Prince Shun thought what Pei Xuan said was very reasonable and asked his subordinates to replace their armor, so when Tan Luo saw the group of people rushing up, he thought they were robbing.

The two sides fought harder and became more and more intense.

Pei Xuan pointed to the carriage not far away, "Their leader should be in that carriage!"

Prince Shun immediately raised his sword and killed him. At this moment, Tan Luo heard the fighting outside and asked the people around him what was going on. He didn't get a reply. He opened the curtain and crawled out.

The next moment, a cold light flashed, and Tan Luo subconsciously turned around and looked, unable to see clearly, a sword had pierced his chest. Then another kick, and he was kicked outside the carriage.

Prince Shun was impatient and didn't even look at the person he kicked out, so he hurried into the carriage to find the defense map.

But when Tan Luo was kicked out, he saw Prince Shun's face. Because he was close, he could see clearly. After the man landed, he was stunned for a moment, then reached out to touch the wound in his heart, and touched the blood in his hand. At this moment, he understood something.

"Shoufu Tan, oh, you're so seriously injured, why are you so careless?" Qin Feishi came up with a gloating look on his face.

Tan Luo opened his mouth, "Yes, it's you, you're the one who did it!"

Qin Fei smiled, "It turns out that he is the one who can become the chief assistant, so it's not too stupid."

Tan Luo's thoughts turned again, his eyes widened, "Emperor...you join forces with the Emperor..."

At this time, Prince Shun came out of the carriage and shouted anxiously at Pei Xuan: "Mr. Pei, no defense map was found!"

"It must be on these people, don't let them escape!"

"Quickly, surround these people!"

Tan Luo tried hard to reach out his hand, trying to make Prince Shun notice him, and at the same time he tried his best to shout: "Prince Shun...I...I am Tan...Um!"

Qin Feishi stabbed him down, stabbed the center, and turned the handle of the knife at the same time.

Tan Luo tried to shout for help, but when he opened his mouth, he spat a mouthful of blood.

Qin Feishi pulled out the knife, inserted it back into the scabbard, then took out something and stuffed it into Tan Luo's clothes, "Now you have become a spy who steals the defense map!"

Tan Luo widened his eyes, but he had only one last breath and was powerless to change anything else.

Seeing Tan Luo closing his eyes, Qin Fei was in the dark.

Prince Shun was led by many people. After arbitrary killing, there were corpses on the ground. Pei Xuan immediately came down, asked the people around him to light a torch, and searched for the defense map one by one.

Prince Shun wiped his sweat and asked his subordinates around him, "Can anyone escape?"

"No one escaped."

"Then look for it!"

He took a torch and thought of the person kicking out of the carriage, so he went to flip through the man first. The light shone through, and Prince Shun didn't pay much attention, but after swaying over, his body did suddenly stiffen.

He shone the fire again, saw the face of the man lying on the ground, breathing first stopped, and then took a breath of cold air.

"Tan, Chief Supporter Tan!" he shouted.

Pei Xuan held a smile on his lips and ran over quickly. Seeing Tan Luo on the ground, he also pretended to be shocked.

"How could it be the Chief Assistant Tan!"

Prince Shun frowned, "Did we kill the wrong one..."

He didn't dare to say anything further, the consequences were terrible.

"Prince Shun, don't panic first, you can turn over his body first, you can have a defense map." Pei Xuan reminded.

Prince Shun came to his senses and responded and hurriedly flipped through. When he really flipped through, he was still stunned. He opened it carefully and looked carefully. It was the lost defense map.

Pei Xuan clapped his hands, "It turns out that this Shoufu Tan actually colluded with Southern Jin and colluded with enemies and treasoned the country. It's really hateful!"

Prince Shun was holding this defense map and couldn't believe it for a moment.

"Prince Shun, you have made great contributions!" Pei Xuan patted Prince Shun on the shoulder.

Prince Shun took a deep breath, "But Tan Luo is the leader of civil servants. If I kill him like this, it will inevitably cause criticism from civil servants."

"You are a military general, and half of the civil and military officials in the court can do anything to you, right?"

"Civil and military ministers should have worked together."

"It is indeed necessary to work together, but it is not Tan Luo who should be led by the emperor."

Prince Shun's face turned pale and turned to look at Pei Xuan, "Is it the emperor..."

"Prince Shun, don't be suspicious."

Prince Shun looked at Tan Luo who was killed by him, and then looked at the defense map in his hand. After realizing it, he understood what he had learned, but now that things have come to this point, he can only admit it.

After all, this is what the emperor means.

Liu Yunxiang woke up early in the morning and learned from Qin Feishi that Tan Luo was dead.

"Tan Luo's people have also retreated. We want to go back to Zhenbei Pass, so we can do it at any time." Qin Feishi said while eating buns.

Liu Yunxiang sat down next to him, "We have done Leng Yuxian a big favor. We can't retire successfully. We are not like this."

Qin Feishi burst into laughter, "So what?"

"Wait."

Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and quickly wrote a letter and put it in an envelope. He asked Zijin to hand it over to Pei Xuan and asked him to hand it over to Leng Yuxian.

"Since Tan Luo is dead, the matter of affinity and alliance with others must be discussed again." Liu Yunxiang said.

Qin Feishi twitched his lips, "You will not threaten the Northern Jin Emperor in this letter. If he does not agree to form an alliance, he will expose his assassination of Tan Luo, right?"

"That's not."

Qin Feishi patted his chest, "That's good, after all, we are on other people's territory, so don't be too arrogant."

In a house in Longcheng, the person who saw the letter slapped the table with a dark face, "She is too arrogant!"

Pei Xuan was startled by the sound, first exhaled, and then asked carefully: "What is written in the letter of the eldest princess, making you so angry?"

"She said that helping me get rid of Tan Luo this time was a big help, but she was not a person who did not seek rewards, so she asked me to think about the alliance. Haha, she also said that she would not force me to agree, but she always felt that I was a person who was loyal to my promises and was grateful."

After saying that, Leng Yuxian slapped the letter on the table.

"Shouldn't she beg me? Can I agree to the suffocation of me inside and outside?"

Pei Xuan's mouth twitched, and it was Liu Yunxiang who dared to be so sarcastic as the emperor.

"Southern Jin is very ambitious, and Darong is now under Yan Mu's rule. He will definitely not agree to ceding the land in order to make peace for a while. Southern Jin and Darong will inevitably fight. If Darong really destroys the country, Southern Jin will be afraid that they will continue to move north in one go, and then our Northern Jin will be in danger." Pei Xuan said.
