Lin Gong was so frightened that he took a step back: "Brother-in-law, what do you mean?"
Meng Jia calmly ordered the soldiers: "Pass this order, whoever dares to disobey military discipline will be killed by my sword!"
After saying this, he waved the long knife in vain and slashed it towards the tip of Lin Gong's nose.
Lin Gong quickly ducked aside, with a pale face and was about to get angry, when he saw Meng Jia pointing the knife at the person next to him and shouted sternly: "Who are you? Why are you sneaking close to Mr. Xiao Lin? Are you trying to do something evil?"
The man was so frightened that he trembled: "No... no... no, General, forgive me. I have something important to report to Mr. Xiao Lin, and I am not planning anything evil."
When Lin Gong saw that it was his confidant, he quickly pushed Meng Jia's knife away and said angrily: "Misunderstanding, this is my servant."
Meng Jia then put away the knife and said seriously: "Brother, don't be afraid. As long as I am here, I will definitely protect you."
As he spoke, he looked at the servants of the Lin family with eager eyes, showing no intention of avoiding them.
Lin Gong had no choice but to pull Changsui aside and lowered his voice: "What's the matter?"
Changsui whispered something into his ear.
Lin Gong's eyes flashed with joy, but he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
Fortunately, Gu Fenglin was seriously injured and Mu Yunhan was missing.
What was annoying was that Mu Yunhan escaped from their control and was caught by Jin Liquan and imprisoned in the dungeon.
"Search with all your strength! No one is alive." Lin Gong gave the order fiercely.
He finally figured out that the possibility of capturing Mu Yunhan alive was too slim. In this case, it would be better to just kill him.
Chang Sui hesitated for a moment and whispered: "There is another thing. Meng Shishi and his men, together with the priest Sui Cuibai, led the troops and a group of people to fight in the west of the city. I don't know what happened?"
Lin Gong said without thinking: "That must be the remnant of the traitor! But..."
He turned around and called Meng Jia: "Brother-in-law, I heard that Shi Fifteen was having a fierce fight with the people from the Priest Palace. What's going on?"
Meng Jia observed his expression carefully and said calmly: "What does it mean to fight fiercely?"
Just as Lin Gong was about to speak, he saw a messenger rushing towards him and shouted: "General, traces of the Qi army have been found in the city!"
It turns out that the so-called discovery of the enemy's situation is this!
Meng Jia's expression changed drastically and he glared at Lin Gong fiercely: "What's going on? How can there be an army of Qi in the capital?"
Lin Gong was also confused: "How is it possible? I know, it must be Gu Fenglin's conspiracy... He wants to take advantage of the chaos to usurp the throne..."
Meng Jia glared at him with disdain, turned around and walked out.
Lin Gong realized in hindsight: "Where are you going? Where are you going? What will happen if you leave here? What if someone breaks into the palace?"
He thought of what the messenger had just said about the Qi army, and suddenly remembered something.
When Meng Jia was asked to lead troops into Beijing, he was responsible for collecting relevant intelligence on this line, sorting it out, and selecting important information to report to Lin Youfang.
About half a month ago, a county magistrate sent a secret report saying that there were two armies asking for supplies.
He didn't take it seriously and thought it was Meng Jia who did this deliberately to distract the troops.
After all, it is within the territory of the State of Zhao, so arrogant, who dares except the army of the State of Zhao?
So he threw the secret report into the brazier, burned it, and then forgot about it.
Now that I think about it, maybe it's this army?
Lin Gong couldn't help but feel frightened, and hurriedly chased after Meng Jia and grabbed him.
