In the most luxurious Tianzihao suite of the best inn in the capital, several people were talking loudly.
The person who said these words was a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe.
As he spoke, the expressions of the other people in the room changed somewhat.
"Brother Wenshan, be careful what you say."
Another man wearing brocade clothing frowned slightly, subconsciously glanced at the closed door, and said: "This is the capital, under the emperor's feet, not the Western Mountains. Be careful that the partition walls have ears."
But Wenshan said nonchalantly: "So what if we are in the capital. In the current situation, whether the prince or the chief minister, they are all trying to win over us."
"Our attitude represents the local attitude of Xishan Province. If it makes us unhappy, we will turn to the other side. Who dares to offend us?"
The man who started to remind said in a deep voice: "Before coming here, both the master and the young marquis reminded us not to offend others in the capital. Have you forgotten what the master and the young marquis said?"
Wenshan then said sarcastically: "I'm not just saying a few words because of our own family."
With that said, Wenshan changed the subject in order to ease his embarrassment: "Brother Jinrui, it has been several hours since Chen Tong, commander of the Jinyi Guards, went to the East Palace. Why hasn't the prince summoned me yet? Logically speaking, he should be impatient.
That’s it.”
Jin Rui smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, maybe the prince is now considering what kind of bargaining chip he can use to make us surrender to him."
"You never know the next second, he might come in person."
Several people in the room chuckled after hearing this.
Wenshan smiled and said: "If this is true, I really want to see how much the crown prince of our Great Qin Empire weighs..."
boom!
Just after saying this, the closed door was kicked open from the outside.
The sudden changes and movements startled everyone inside.
Jin Rui was the first to stand up and shouted angrily: "Who!? So presumptuous!?"
I saw a large number of royal guards rushing in from outside the door, each holding an embroidered spring knife and staring at them with unkind expressions.
The Jinyiwei crowd parted, and Chen Tong, wearing a commander's uniform, walked in expressionlessly.
Seeing Chen Tong, Jin Rui was startled subconsciously, then suppressed the uneasiness surging in his heart, smiled dryly and said with his hands, "It turns out to be Commander Chen. I didn't know that such a battle would greet me in the East Palace?"
Even a fool can see that this formation is here to arrest people, not to invite them.
The reason why Jin Rui said this was to remind Chen Tong that the status of his group is not ordinary, so don't get confused.
Chen Tong smiled coldly and said: "Welcome? Are you going to the East Palace?"
"You don't want to go to the East Palace, but you can go and see the underworld."
After finishing speaking, Chen Tong waved his hand.
The people who came with him today are all his confidants who have been trained under him for many years. There is no need to mention the loyalty and tacit understanding between them.
I heard a scream coming from the luxurious box, the smell of blood filled the air, and corpses were already lying on the ground.
That's like a river of blood.
Among the corpses, Wenshan, who had previously looked down upon the world with grace and grace, was sitting on the ground dumbly. The blood flowing out of his companion's corpse soaked his legs. He didn't notice at all and looked at Chen Tong as if he was dumbfounded.
Chen Tong stepped on the pool of blood, walked forward and squatted in front of Wenshan with a smile, raised his hand and patted his face.
