Han Zhao, who had excused himself to inspect the military camp, was already standing alone in a deserted pavilion.
There is only one river in the north of Guanghan City, and there is only this pavilion by the river, so he is confident that he has found the right place.
But now the surroundings are empty, not a single person is seen.
"..."
He looked around calmly and stood facing the woods not far away.
Han Zhao just stood there without saying a word. After more than ten breaths, a figure appeared in his field of vision.
It was Wei Changtian who had been hiding nearby for a long time.
In order to be able to send a message to Han Zhao, he specially found a lone soldier, and after some "persuasion", he "made an exception" and asked the latter to join the same boat group, and then used the soldier's mouth to send a message to Han Zhao to see him.
.
This is the simplest way Wei Changtian can think of.
After all, people who have taken the Puppet Pill have a special connection with each other, so Han Zhao will definitely not have any doubts.
The reason why he didn't show up immediately was because he was worried that someone was following Han Zhao, so he waited a little longer just in case.
"..."
"General Han."
"Master Wei."
After a few breaths, the two finally met in the pavilion.
Although this was the first time that Wei Changtian and Han Zhao had seen each other in person, since they had already seen each other's portraits, they did not verify anything at the moment, but took the time to get straight to the point.
"Did the Shu army successfully break through?"
This is the first question Wei Changtian asked.
And Han Zhao immediately recounted everything that had happened from the night before yesterday to now.
The Shu army successfully broke through, and Ning Yongnian ordered not to pursue for the time being. His mother-in-law jade and code book fell into the hands of You Wenzong...
Wei Changtian quickly connected these things and thought for a while before asking again:
"General Han, why do you think Ning Yongnian did not allow the army to pursue him?"
"It should be mainly because of that master."
Han Zhao answered quickly.
Although he really wanted to ask Wei Changtian if he knew who the man who "killed three thousand soldiers with one sword" was, he finally held back and just analyzed slowly:
"Such a person is enough to overturn the war situation in Shuzhou. Ning Yongnian will be extra cautious before he understands his origin."
"Furthermore, Master, you were alone in delaying the Zhenshan camp yesterday. This matter may also make the capital city uneasy."
"Ning Yongnian may want to talk to Mr. Wei first..."
Ning Yongnian wanted to talk to Wei Xianzhi.
Although Han Zhao's words were very tactful, Wei Changtian knew that it would definitely not be as simple as "talking" in the capital.
However, he is not too worried that there will really be too much conflict between the two sides.
After all, Wei Zhaohai is still in the capital, and Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen are not vegetarians.
The most important thing is that the Wei family is no longer what it used to be. Once they are completely broken, the whole of Daning will definitely fall into a turmoil that is several times more terrifying than the "Chunlong Rebellion".
At present, food prices in Daning are soaring, and the war is fought on two fronts. The world is already difficult.
If such a big chaos happens again at this time, Ning Yongnian will definitely not be able to bear the consequences.
Therefore, it is estimated that there is a high probability that the capital will be brought down with a round of verbal attacks.
"..."
Shaking his head, Wei Changtian did not continue talking about this issue.
For me, the most important thing right now is how to force Ning Yongnian to continue his invasion of Shuzhou City.
Um?
Thinking of this, Wei Changtian's eyes suddenly lit up.
"General Han, you just said that my two pieces of mother-in-law jade will be sent to the capital?"
"Yes, You Wenzong did say that."
Han Zhao nodded and replied: "But don't worry, Young Master, I have just sent a message to Young Master Chu about this matter. I think nothing will go wrong."
"Chu Xianping already knows, right?"
Wei Changtian touched his chin and suddenly chuckled: "It's easy to cover up this matter."
"But...since that You Wenzong wants to take this opportunity to plot against the Tongzhou Club, why can't we plot against him instead?"
"Um?"
Han Zhao was stunned and instantly understood what Wei Changtian meant.
"Sir, you mean..."
"That's right."
Wei Changtian squinted his eyes and smiled sinisterly under the moonlight: "Don't they want to know who the master is? Don't they want to know who the expert in the army is?"
"Then let's make up a good story and tell it to Ning Yongnian..."
"..."
...
Another half an hour later.
Carrying the new mother-in-law jade brought by Han Zhao, Wei Changtian has returned to the courtyard.
Although he had paid great attention, the old wooden door still made a slight noise, waking up the old woman who was still sitting on the bamboo chair.
"Mother-in-law, why don't you go to bed and sleep?"
Seeing the latter slowly opening his eyes, Wei Changtian said a little embarrassedly: "This door is too old. I will replace it with a new door for you tomorrow."
"..."
The old woman looked at Wei Changtian, as if her reaction was a little slow. After a long while, she slowly stood up, turned around and went to the back room.
Wei Changtian didn't say much, and walked to the crib under the moonlight to prepare for sleep.
The bedding was spread neatly, and although it was patched a lot, it was clean.
And compared to when he left, there was one more piece of clothing on the bedside.
Wei Changtian immediately recognized it as the one that the old woman had been sewing today.
It turns out they were sewn for me...
There are clothes belonging to a young man at home, indicating that the old woman did have children, but it is not known whether they are traveling far away or dead now.
Picking up the clothes and looking at them, Wei Changtian felt a sigh of relief. At the same time, he also thought of the sweet-scented osmanthus cakes that Qin Caizhen sent from the capital from time to time.
Although Wei Changtian did not inherit the taste of his previous master, he never liked eating the overly sweet "mother's love pastries".
But at this moment, he suddenly missed that smell again.
Is it because you haven’t eaten for a long time?
The bright moon outside the window is like a hook, and there seems to be a faint scent of osmanthus in the air.
...
...
Capital City, Wei Mansion.
It was dark in the huge mansion, with only the lights in the main courtyard lit.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The beautiful woman who still retains her charm is waiting anxiously at the door, her eyes constantly looking into the distance.
After an unknown amount of time, a lantern appeared from the end of the path. She immediately rushed up to meet it and asked hurriedly:
"How about it?"
"fine."
The middle-aged man holding the lantern nodded, and just two words made the beautiful woman breathe a sigh of relief.
"Thank God, as long as it's okay, it'll be okay..."
"..."
With the current energy of the Wei family, what happened in Shuzhou last night could not be hidden from Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen.
After the two of them heard that Wei Changtian had gone to stop Zhenshan Camp alone and had disappeared, they never slept a wink. They even checked Wei Changtian's life card every few hours.
Fortunately, the fate card is still intact until now.
However, although Wei Changtian is fine, the Wei family's current situation is somewhat unfavorable.
Because just now, Ning Yongnian finally summoned Wei Xianzhi to the palace to meet the saint.
The Shu army's breakout happened last night, but the former did not move all day long. If Wei Xianzhi had to be summoned in the middle of the night, it would be hard not to think of what he was going to do.
The moon is dark and the wind is high, the sky is full of murders and arson.
Perhaps, the emperor finally decided to fall out with the Wei family.
"You might as well not go."
After following Wei Xianzhi back to the house, Qin Caizhen advised with a worried look: "Ning Yongnian may do something at this juncture."
"All the Imperial Guards who were out during the day have returned to the city. They are here to show us."
"Let's just say the illness has been delayed for a few days. It won't be too late to discuss it after there is a message from Chang Tian."
"..."
Putting the lantern in the corner, Wei Xianzhi was silent for a long time before speaking.
Although what Qin Caizhen said was reasonable, his perspective on thinking about the problem was obviously different.
"If you don't go...will Ning Yongnian give up?"
"Who can say for sure what will happen to Shuzhou?"
"Oh, my son has caused trouble, and I, as a father, will have to wipe his ass sooner or later."
"But......"
Qin Caizhen frowned and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Wei Xianzhi waving his hand:
"Needless to say, there is no point in delaying this matter any longer."
"Isn't Ning Yongnian going to show us the Imperial Guard? Then let's also show him the Xuanjing Division."
"..."
This time, Qin Caizhen did not persuade her.
Although she is not very polite to Wei Xianzhi on weekdays, when it comes to big things, she is like an ordinary woman and never goes against her man's decision.
"Then...I'll ask my father to come out of seclusion?"
"Go ahead."
Nodding, Wei Xianzhi watched Qin Caizhen leave in a hurry, and then shouted softly outside the door.
"Wang Er!"
"master."
Wang Er immediately stepped into the room, bowed and said, "The villain is here."
"Well, you can take my token now and go to the Hanging Mirror Division to burn the ancestral jade."
As he spoke, Wei Xianzhi casually threw a black token to Wang Er.
His tone was so calm that Wang Er once thought that he had heard wrongly.
"master......"
Wang Er glanced at the genuine Xuanjing Division Commander Token in his hand, widened his eyes and confirmed: "You mean... Zhuozu Jade?"
"Um."
"Well, what happens next?"
Wang Er breathed rapidly and asked again: "I wonder what the master is going to do?"
"..."
Wei Xianzhi paused for a moment, looked at the night outside the house calmly and replied:
