Chapter 43: Zhang Ke and Xu Jingming

When Xu Jingming made his fifty-eighth thrust, Liu Hai also instantly advanced diagonally. 。Both sides advanced simultaneously, the distance between them shrinking rapidly. Xu Jingming was startled a...Fei Qing sat in the carriage, which swayed slightly. 。As the current situation in the world worsens, the northwest region is particularly dire, with repeated large-scale military campaigns failing. 。"Fei Qing pondered silently, "Your Majesty, you are ruthless enough to your subordinates, but towards those five princes who command vast armies, you are increasingly weak, always making concessions!"

"Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, I have left the imperial capital and taken charge of the Blood Rain Guards in the eastern region of the empire..." 。Having been away from the Emperor for so long, he no longer trusts me as he used to. 。" Fei Qing let out a sigh. " 。He diligently managed the Eastern Empire, cultivating a sufficiently powerful Blood Rain Guard army and maintaining basic stability throughout the East. Unlike the decadent West and North regions. 。The stronger I make the Blood Rain Guards, the more wary the Emperor becomes of me. 。"Even I am feeling a bit weary, Fei Qing sighed. "If I don't put my heart into it, the eastern territories of the empire will likely crumble and fall into complete chaos." 。This time I returned to the Imperial Capital for a duty report more than a month ago, and the Emperor still hasn't let me go back. 。"Cheng Yanran was tyrannical in his actions, slaughtering a detachment of the Blood Rain Guard and even implicating their families. " 。Ruthless in his actions, I took advantage of this to merely punish and reprimand Cheng Yanran. Even the Emperor refused. 。"Fei Qing thought to herself, 'The Emperor doesn't treat me the way he used to.'" 。In the eyes of outsiders, Fei Qing is still the Emperor's right-hand man. 。However, Fei Qing was clear...

of the danger she was in now. 。With Dean Ming as our backer, even if I fall, at least my younger sister and my father will be safe. No one dares to touch them. 。"Fee Qing pondered for a moment, and then sighed softly, “Your Majesty, one should surround oneself with wise advisors and keep away from treacherous flatterers.” 。"Your Majesty, can you truly distinguish between wise ministers and treacherous scoundrels Even I have my doubts. Who else do you trust"

The carriage arrived at the Fei residence at this moment. 。Fei Qing got off the carriage and entered the mansion. 。"Sir, Jingming is here to see you." 。The grey-haired old man Lu Shao said: 。"Oh" Feiqing nodded slightly. 。The Emperor's trust has decreased, and Fei Qing is not someone who will be slaughtered passively. Naturally, he is also cultivating forces loyal to him. For example, 'Jing Ming,' who has the potential to become a top-tier expert, also belongs to Fei Qing's reserve force. 。

…

"Sir" 。Xu Jingming performed a respectful bow. 。"I know about your troops." 。Fei Qing sat there. 。"My lord, was it Cheng Yanran, the son of the Marquis of Yan, who instructed this" Xu Jingming inquired. 。Fei Qing looked at Xu Jingming in surprise. 。Xu Jingming bought detailed information about 'Cheng Yanran' on the Virtual World Network, and he also knew about the relationship between Huangquan Gate and Yan Wangfu! Coupled with the fact that Cheng Yanran sent someone to assassinate him the previous night, it was easy for him to figure out... 。"As you said, Cheng Yanran won't give up." 。"Xu Jingming said, 'Furthermore, I found in Xue Yu Wei that Huang Quan Men's roots are in the northern region of the empire and have ties with Yan Wangfu. Therefore, I guess it was Cheng Yanran who instigated this.'" 。"

“Um” 。“

Fee Qing nodded slightly, “I agree with your guess.” 。To slaughter a detachment of Blood Rain Guards and implicate their families is a capital offense. 。Xu Jingming said, he wanted to borrow the power of the official, but Cheng Yanan was too difficult to deal with. 。Without evidence, there's nothing we can do. 。" Fei Qing looked at Xu Jingming, “Even if you have evidence, it's useless." 。"With evidence, it still doesn't count" Xu Jingming looked at Fei Qing. 。"To apprehend a prince, one must have the Emperor's consent." 。Fei Qing said 。"Sir, Cheng Yanran attacked me and Luo Baichuan because of Miss Fei." 。They will continue to attack my team. 。"Is this how adults just indulge Cheng Yanran" Xu Jingming asked. 。Here is the capital city 。Fei Qing looked at Xu Jingming, "I don't count." 。Xu Jingming was startled. 。

"Spend a few more days in the capital, and you'll understand." 。Fei Qing got up and left. 。Xu Jingming looked at this scene and secretly thought, "It seems that I can't rely on official forces. I can only rely on myself." 。。"Poor old brother Qu and them" 。"The Huangquan Sect is too cruel, even implicating their families." 。The Blood Rain Guards chatted, but it was just a few curses on their lips. 。Xu Jingming saw this scene and could feel the numbness in the hearts of these Xue Yu Guards: "I can feel that they don't intend to avenge their comrades. Dozens of comrades have died, and their families have been killed. Such a tragedy... Why are they still so numb" Suddenly, angry shouts came from the front. 。"Zhao Baihu! With only three squads under your command, one is now nearly wiped out, and even your family is implicated!" 。"I beg you to send someone to investigate, and you still demand bribes" Zhang's voice came out in a frenzy. 。

Zhang Ke walked out, still scolding back, "I've seen it now, what it means to be greedy for money! You dare call yourself the chief centurion of Xueyu Wei"

"Zhang Ke!"

Zhao Defang walked out, his beard trembling, and said angrily, "Don't you dare slander me! When did I ever ask for bribes The investigation into Huangquanmen was ordered by the town governor himself. It has nothing to do with me sending people. Considering that your whole family was destroyed by Huangquanmen and you are consumed by anger, I will not pursue your charges of slander. But be careful, there are some things you shouldn't say." 。"

“Hahaha…”, Zhang Ke laughed, laughing wildly. " 。Other Blood Rain Guards watched this scene and sighed inwardly. 。

"Zhang Ke, the deputy captain, is truly pitiful. " 。"Oh no, I've angered the Huangquan Gate." 。"In the Imperial City, who shouldn't you provoke Don't you know" These Blood Rain Guards muttered under their breath. They were imposing towards ordinary people, but when facing truly powerful forces, they were all cautious, afraid of causing a big disaster. 。Xu Jingming also watched all of this. 。"I was just like you guys before...." 。"Zhang Ke looked at the numerous Xue Yu Guards around him, "Drifting with the waves, muddle-headed, just living this way. They think the royal court is difficult to deal with, that the major forces in the imperial capital are terrifying, and they think those Xue Yu Guards who were caught in the crossfire and died on the streets were unlucky and deserved it. They blame it on those big powers.""But I understand now, Xue Yu Guards, you've lost your blood!" Zhang Ke sneered, "A Xue Yu Guard with no blood is a joke, a laughingstock!""If you had blood, if you were like the Emperor Capital Xue Yu Guards in my father's youth! Who would dare to massacre a Xue Yu Guard unit And implicate their families I'm afraid the Xue Yu Guards would turn the entire Imperial Capital upside down." 。"It's a pity, that was the bloody rain guard of the past..." Zhang Ke said as he walked outside. 。

“Zhang Ke” 。Xu Jingming called out to him. 。Zhang Ke looked at Xu Jingming, but directly said: “Captain, and everyone present, you all stay away from me, otherwise you might be implicated by my madness.” 。Saying that, he strode out. 。Only then did the many Blood Rain Guards around begin to buzz with discussion. 。"The Blood Rain Guards of those days" Some veteran Blood Rain Guards had complex feelings, "Things are different now. That was the past." 。Outside the city, in front of the cemetery 。

Zhang Ke knelt there 。Xu Jingming came here as well and stepped forward to offer tributes, burning some paper money. 。

"Captain, you should keep your distance from me" 。"Zhang Ke looked at the tombstone and said calmly, 'From now on, I am a living dead man, only a living dead man seeking revenge.'" 。I don't want to drag you into this. 。I can see... Captain, you're a good man, and you have blood in your veins. 。Don't get me caught up in this. 。when she discovered it, was less than ten meters away from her. The thought barely flashed in her mind before the arrow pierced through her thigh. The impact force sent her staggering backward, crash...
