At the beginning, his wife came to him, and he became rich by selling kidney treasures.

Ren Hao was extremely reluctant.

But this was the emperor's personal appointment, and even if he was extremely reluctant, he could not stop the three from going to the battlefield.

"Master, this..." Chen Fei didn't know what to do after reading the imperial edict. One was the master he was loyal to, and the other was chosen by the emperor.

He also didn't expect that the emperor's appointment would fall on him, after all, he was the descendant of a criminal general of the previous dynasty.

"What's all this? The only one we are loyal to is the master. Whoever wants to be a general or a cavalry captain can be one. I, Zhang, will definitely not go." Zhang Kuai sat down on the ground, looking down on this cavalry captain at all.

Zhang Kuai had already taken the lead, and Wu Chu also sat down on the ground to indicate that he would not go either, and was only willing to be loyal to Ren Hao.

"I know you are loyal to me, and I really don't want you to go, but it is difficult to disobey the emperor's order. If you disobey, you will surely lose your heads." Ren Hao sighed, and as the master, ordered them to get up and go to the palace to meet the emperor without delay.

Since things had come to this, the three of them had no choice but to bow to Ren Hao and follow the old eunuch into the palace.

Due to the shortage of time and the tense situation at War God Pass, Wen Yan did not even have time to hold a grand departure ceremony. He simply handed the general seal and tiger talisman to Chen Fei and asked them to lead the 30,000 newly recruited troops straight to War God Pass.

These 30,000 new troops had no names but only carried General Chen's flag. They were composed of 15,000 long-halberd infantry, 5,000 cavalry, 5,000 swordsmen and axemen, and 5,000 miscellaneous servants.

They have neither received professional training nor had any experience in fighting. To put it bluntly, they were sent to the battlefield to be cannon fodder.

As soon as Chen Fei, Zhang Kuai and Wu Chu left, Ren Hao asked Cai Lun to post a recruitment notice to recruit new followers.

After all, if there is no one to protect the mansion or the business, who knows what shady tricks the Zhao family father and son will come up with.

Ren Hao handed the written recruitment notice to Cai Lun.

But Cai Lun had just left when he turned back and said, "Master."

"Didn't I ask you to go post the recruitment notice? Why are you back?" Ren Hao asked puzzledly.

"Master, look who's back?" Cai Lun suddenly smiled and pointed at the woman next to him.

Her white clothes were as white as snow and her face was as icy as ice, just like a snow lotus from the Tianshan Mountains.

This woman was none other than Erika Yuki, who had escorted Cao De back home.

When he needed help the most, Erixue, his personal bodyguard, actually came back at the most critical moment. This is really great news!!!

"Master." Huilixue bowed to Ren Hao and began to report the mission.

She had successfully escorted Cao De to the outskirts of the ancient Wei capital.

"Didn't I tell you to send him to the border? Why did you send him outside the capital of ancient Wei?" Ren Hao asked puzzled.

"Master, Mr. Cao fell ill due to the unfamiliar climate, so I had to send him out of the capital on my own, which delayed him quite a bit on the way." Eriyuki reported truthfully.

"No wonder you came back later than I expected." Ren Hao nodded after understanding the situation. This so-called illness due to acclimatization was probably just something Cao De pretended to be.

After all, it was still a thousand miles from the border to the ancient Wei capital, and no matter how resourceful an old gentleman he was, he was no match for those bandits.

Those bandits wouldn't bother to talk to him about the Three Books and Five Classics, they just killed people and robbed them.

This Cao De is really smart.

I also hope that he can make a name for himself in Ancient Wei, so that he can cooperate with Chen Fei and others.

After thinking about it, Ren Hao asked Cai Lun to arrange food and accommodation for Hui Lixue so that she could have a good rest for a few days.

However, Eriyuki did not appreciate it and continued to act as Ren Hao's shadow to protect him.

Originally, Ren Hao wanted Hui Lixue to go to Ren's Trading Company to protect Xu Yating. After all, now that Wu Chu was no longer in charge of the company, Zhao Qian might find some scoundrels to cause trouble in the company again.

But what can't be helped is that Erika refused to go at all and insisted on protecting Ren Hao.

The reason why Erixue was so determined was that she had a bad feeling in her heart.

On her way back to Beijing, she noticed some suspicious people lingering outside the mansion.

"Li Xue, don't be so startled. The so-called bad person you mentioned is probably just a simple passerby." Ren Hao shook his head without taking it to heart, thinking that Li Xue was too sensitive.

But Huilixue didn't explain anything. She just said that she would not go to the company to protect Xu Yating.

In this helpless situation, Ren Hao could only ask Cai Lun to ask Wuming to take charge and temporarily look after Ren's Business.

While Ren Hao didn't take Eriyuki's words to heart, the Zhao family on the other side had already begun planning their actions.

"Yilong, I have already dispatched the three masters you mentioned. Is it time to fulfill your promise?"

Zhao Ping'an looked at the one-eyed man in front of him.

The one-eyed man was none other than Du Yilong, the head of Zhu Shihao's retainers, and he was followed by four masked men.

These four masked men were all short in stature, and besides being mute, they all had some kind of disability, either missing an arm or a leg, missing an ear, or having no nose.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister Zhao. We will never forget what we promised."

"As for Ren Hao, is Prime Minister Zhao going to be alive or dead?" Du Yilong asked.

Zhao Pingan thought about it, then gnashed his teeth and ordered: "It's better to catch him half-dead and bring him to me. I want him to wish for life and not for death!!!"

Not only did Ren Hao steal his future daughter-in-law, he also colluded with the emperor to cheat him of his money. So don't blame him for being cruel and ruthless.

"Okay." Du Yilong nodded, then winked at the four subordinates beside him.

The four of them understood and jumped onto the roof at the same time.

Zhao Ping'an couldn't help but look up at the eaves of his house, but there were no figures on the eaves. They disappeared without a trace like ghosts.

Ren Mansion on the other side.

At this time, Ren Hao, who was eating sand apples and reading a book in the study, had no idea that danger was slowly approaching.

Just as he was sleeping and eating, a slender bamboo tube suddenly pierced through the window and came in.

Suddenly, white smoke billowed out of the bamboo tube, emitting bursts of fragrance.

"This is?"

Ren Hao noticed something unusual, but soon he felt dizzy.

Within two seconds, Ren Hao fainted and crawled on the table.

The next moment after Ren Hao fainted, the bricks and tiles on the eaves of the study were suddenly moved away, and a man in a black robe and missing his left leg hung on a rope and floated down like a spider.

Just when he was halfway down, suddenly a cold sword flew out from the darkness and cut the rope.

The man in black robe suddenly fell to the ground.

Eryuki came out from the dark and didn't give the man a chance to attack. She pierced his heart with a sword and killed him.
