Chapter 148

Chapter 148 Being tricked

The sky soon darkened, and bonfires were set up all around. With the huge Ji family army there, the people left behind lost all fear and started singing and drinking and having fun.

He Mucheng, wearing a big cloak, lay lazily in the corner of the carriage, chatting with Ji Yunyuan from time to time, until she nodded like garlic, and finally fell asleep leaning on Ji Yunyuan's shoulder.

Not long after, Ji Yunyuan brought the roasted chicken legs to her nose.

This smell made the little girl almost retching!

"What is this!" He Mucheng covered his nose and jumped out all the way, "You just roast it raw! It's so fishy..."

Seeing her covering her nose with a look of disgust, Ji Yunyuan opened his mouth and took a bite, wondering, "Isn't it good?"

"Not bad? Is this called not bad?"

He Mucheng stopped immediately. She rolled up her sleeves, took the untouched chicken beside her, and waved her hand to the confused general, "Get up, I'm here to show you my skills!"

Ji Yunyuan raised his eyebrows and stepped aside with interest.

He Mucheng yawned and slowly opened the corner of the curtain.

"Where do these damn parents and officials put the lives and deaths of the people?"

Just as she was thinking this, she saw Ji Yunyuan taking the edict and shrugging at her indifferently.

In a daze, she felt like she was being hugged into a peppery embrace.

"I was actually tricked!" Ji Yunyuan's stern face suddenly showed a hint of sternness.

With the increase of 200 points in the system, He Mucheng felt more melancholy than joy.

Seeing the little girl taking out some strange bottles and cans from her backpack, and using a brush to brush something on the food, she curiously asked, "What is this?"

Sima Shao, this is raising a tiger for trouble!

"Where is Master Kanyu?" Ji Yunyuan looked behind the soldiers and saw that no one was following him.

Whether Lucheng is stable or not is directly related to Jiankang's survival. With the Ji family army here, Qian Feng has little chance of winning, but it is not certain if it is Zu Yue.

Ji Yunyuan's face was filled with overwhelming anger!

As a result, the post of governor of Yanzhou in Nanzhi was dismissed.

Qian Feng came from Gushe on the order of Wang Dun. The first thing he did was to regain Luzhou and occupy the key place to attack Jiankang. Ji Yunyuan, as the general stationed in Lucheng, naturally shouldered the responsibility of guarding Luzhou.

As soon as he said these words, there was an uproar all around:

"Yesterday Master Kanyu also said that today is the right time to open the coffin at noon. Is he trying to buy time for himself to escape?"

When I woke up, it was already broad daylight, and there was a clamor outside the carriage.

Zu Yue was Zu Ti's younger brother. According to the book, Zu Yue once served as the governor of Yuzhou, but he was unable to control his subordinates well and could not withstand Zhao's attack. In the end, Zu Yue lost the achievements of Zu Ti's Northern Expedition.

Ji Yunyuan serves as the governor of Yanzhou, and the fifth main task has been completed. So, is the next step to compete with Shi Hu to seize Zhao's territory?

The soldier turned over and dismounted, bowed his hands to Ji Yunyuan, "The governor of Yanzhou fled to Gushu with his family. Now the entire Lu City is leaderless. General, what should we do?"

Outside the car, more people gathered than last night, but Nan Zhi and Nan Yue were nowhere to be seen.

"Run away?" The leader murmured and backed away, his face as pale as a sheet of paper. "Damn Nan Zhi, he co-operated with Master Kanyu last night just to escape!"

A gap opened not far away, and a soldier rushed over, breathing heavily.

The little girl sneezed lightly, muttered something, turned over, and fell asleep again.

"General, it's bad, Master Kanyu has escaped!"

The dull sound accompanied by the scraping of the coffin echoed in the cemetery, and everyone around them spontaneously held their breath in concentration.

Ji Yunyuan told Ling Shi, "Invite a few people to find out the cause of King Lucheng's death."

Just like last night, he just avoided the surveillance of the huge Ji Jiajun and escaped from Lucheng so quietly. What a villain!

When the coffin lid was opened, a rotten smell hit the nostrils. People with shallow throats had already backed away, and some even vomited out the jaundice.

The edict stated that Yanzhou was invaded by Shihu, and Ji Yunyuan was appointed as the governor of Yanzhou, taking charge of Yuzhou and fighting against Shihu. The guard of Lucheng was handed over to Zu Yue, the Zhenxi general from Yuzhou.

Now, due to the arrival of He Musheng, the time points of some events have been advanced and the appointments have been different. However, it is an indisputable fact that Zu Yue is incompetent.

When it was almost done, He Mucheng sprinkled a handful of pepper on it to remove the fishy smell, then he flashed it in front of Ji Yunyuan's eyes and raised his chin proudly, "Well, give it a try."

Ji Yunyuan's move was to involve the people around him. The leader understood and stepped forward, standing next to Ling Shi to help record. In less than a quarter of an hour, the news that King Lucheng had been poisoned and died was confirmed.

"Ji Yunyuan, you don't wash your hands either..."

As she spoke, she turned around and climbed into the carriage.

The fire crackled, and small flames burst out from time to time as she sprinkled salt, pepper and cumin. She looked like a little cook with nimble hands and feet.

He turned around and walked to the coffin, waved his hands to the left and right, gritted his teeth and said, "Open the coffin!"

"It's strange. It's almost noon. Will the secret that this family has been trying so hard to keep behind be revealed so easily by Ji Yunyuan?"

"Honey." He Mucheng didn't even raise his head, just focusing on the movements of his hands, thinking that she had worked as a temporary worker at a barbecue stall, so wouldn't she be able to bake these things easily?

Everyone returned to the Lucheng Palace. Witnessed by the noble families, Ji Yunyuan publicly announced that Nan Zhi had poisoned the prince on the orders of the Lucheng King, that Nan Zhi had failed to poison Ji Yunyuan in Yuzhou to take the credit, and that Nan Yue had poisoned Lu for personal revenge. City King and many other matters.

"Why is he running away? He didn't kill the person..."

A gust of night wind blew through the treetops, and He Mucheng stretched lazily. When he raised his head again, he saw that Ji Yunyuan had already eaten all the chicken in his hand like a wind-whipped cloud.

The most important thing is that after Sima Shao died of illness, Zu Yue and Su Jun were the culprits of the Su Jun Rebellion that followed.

He Mucheng also suddenly realized that it turned out that Nan Yue hit the coffin with her forehead last night not to buy time to tamper with the body. Both she and Ji Yunyuan were thinking in the wrong direction!

I originally thought that by guarding the body of King Lu Cheng, everything would fall into place. Unexpectedly, people had already heard the news and knew that they were in doom.

The leading people were startled and asked quickly, "Is the governor of Yanzhou ready to fight?"

Ji Yunyuan's breath was all over the couch, and He Mucheng was not polite, just rolled up his brocade quilt, wrapped it around him, and fell asleep peacefully in the warmth of the charcoal fire.

However, before Qian Feng's cavalry arrived at the west gate of Lu City, Sima Shao's appointment letter crossed the river and arrived first.

Sima Shao still had a rift with Ji Yunyuan.

He Mucheng slowly fell into thoughts.

Before they could finish their words, they saw another soldier coming on horseback. He waved his whip and shouted, "General Ji, it's bad, General Qian Feng has led his troops to kill Gushu and come to Lucheng!"

At the same time, the contest between Wang Dun and Sima Shao completely kicked off.

A blush suddenly appeared on He Mucheng's cheeks, "I'm not married yet, don't talk nonsense!"

With this thought in mind, she got out of the carriage after freshening up.

Slowly, a burst of fragrance overflowed from the bonfire, causing the gluttons in Ji Yunyuan's stomach to keep churning.

"I really married a baby." He was still satisfied and smiled with satisfaction.

He Mucheng knew that Ji Yunyuan had never been one to pursue an official career in the Jin Dynasty. If Sima Shao trusted her, he would help her for her sake. If she was not trusted, he would be happy.

In the current troubled times, war is inevitable wherever he goes. He is destined to live on the battlefield in his life.

The crowd dispersed, and just as Ji Yunyuan and He Mucheng were about to turn around, they heard a harsh and shrill voice coming from behind, "Nan's Ayan, His Majesty has ordered that you have to go to Jiankang."

That tone was more of an order than a discussion.
