The whole family escaped from famine and accidentally occupied land
Chapter 27 Searching for someone
Jingkanzi Village.
There was a burning smell in the air, and black smoke was coming out from some places.
"The weapons on Prince Li's side? Could it be that they did it? Cousin, look!"
A handsome young man picked up the long knife on the ground and handed it to the man in black clothes and silver face.
The man in black and silver ignored him, without even raising his eyelids, and sneered, "You believed my little trick!"
A man dressed in black and brown, dressed like an attendant, came over and reported, "Sir, there are no survivors!"
The handsome young man at the side asked, "Shaobo, where is Wei Li? Wasn't his aunt's family spared?"
"Return to the county... Second Master, Captain Wei did not find his relatives. They probably died in the sea of fire."
The follower named Changbo pointed in a direction, and the handsome young man ran towards Wei Li.
The burning was the worst there.
"Did you find anything?"
The man in black and silver mask put his hands behind his back and looked at Jingkanzi Village with his eyebrows slightly raised.
"General, calm down. If my guess is correct, it must be the work of King Ming."
Changbo didn't dare to breathe and broke out in a light sweat in the early autumn weather.
"Did you find anything?" The man in black clothes and silver face turned around and stared into Changbo's eyes.
"There is a kind of black water in the Ming Wang territory that will burn when it encounters fire. Traces of that black water have been found in Jingkanzi Village, and the traces of black water in Aunt Wei Li's home are even heavier."
Changbo was a little nervous.
"Got it, let's see if there's anything else missing."
When the man in black and silver mask spoke, Changbo breathed a sigh of relief and his shoulders relaxed.
When the people walked away, Changbo looked up and found a pair of eye-catching footprints not far away.
"Hey, if you have the energy, just let it out. Why are you fighting with the ground? I have other things to deal with."
The place where the man in black and silver mask had originally stood was sunken by nearly two inches.
"Are you aggrieved?"
A clear male voice sounded, and Chang Bo shuddered, "General, I am most pleased."
A man in black and a silver face suddenly appeared. Changbo sped up and restored the two footprints to their original state.
"Prince Ming and Prince Li are still in Lingzhou? The imperial edict has been issued, but they haven't returned yet?"
"No, the King of Yan's decree to reduce the power of the vassal states is on the way. We need to find the prince quickly and make plans early."
Changbo finished speaking, looking sad.
"Why are you crying so hard? Let's see what the prince is going to do. He won't just sit there and wait for death. Report this to the magistrate of Ping County. If he doesn't care, use his seal to report it to the one in the capital."
After the man in black and silver mask gave his instructions, he left completely this time.
After Changbo finished cleaning up, he hurried to deal with the traces left by their people.
The man in black and silver came to the place where the burn marks were the most severe and asked in a deep voice:
"Wei Li, do you have any clues? Your Wei family fell just like that, do you believe it?"
The man called Wei Li stood up and wiped his tears, "I don't believe it!"
The Wei family has been suppressed all the time, which is the intention of the top man in the capital.
This time, when Lingzhou City was captured, there was no reinforcement, and it was the emperor who did it on purpose.
"I have something for you to do. Take Changbo with you and go find the magistrate of Ping County to tell him what happened here and bring the matter to the attention of that person."
After the black-clad, silver-faced man finished speaking, the handsome young man next to him jumped up and said, "Cousin, I want to go too."
"No, they are going to do something important. It's inconvenient for you to follow them. I'll send someone to take you back to Prince Yan's Mansion while I continue looking for someone."
"Indeed, Princess, it is not appropriate for you to follow, or—"
Wei Li tried to persuade her for a few words, but was interrupted by the handsome "young man".
"How is it inappropriate? Can you beat me? I am a girl, so what? Now I am wearing men's clothes and no one recognizes me."
"Jiang Chi, stop messing around!" the man in black clothes and silver face shouted.
"Jiang Zhu, why am I fooling around? I'm quite skilled and won't be a drag. I want to follow Wei Li."
The handsome "boy" was originally named Jiang Chi, and the man in black clothes and silver face was named Jiang Zhu.
The two are cousins.
Wei Li, who was standing by, was no longer surprised.
Jiang Chi was a rebellious person and could only go along with him.
"General, let the princess follow us. After we finish this matter, we will return to Yanzhou."
"Yes, I will never hold you back!"
With Wei Li's help, Jiang Chi also made some promises.
The man in black and silver face was Jiang Zhu, and he agreed.
In addition to Changbo, Jiang Zhu assigned them a few more people, and only then did he feel relieved.
"General, the deadline the prince gave you is coming. No matter whether you can find the prince or not, you must rush back to Yanzhou as soon as possible."
Wei Li gave another reminder before leaving.
Jiang Zhu nodded.
"Changhe, you must take good care of the general. He cannot eat raw or cold food, and cannot eat--"
"I understand, brother!" The man called Changhe had a baby face and looked somewhat similar to Changbo. They were brothers, two years apart in age.
One is steady, the other is cheerful.
The two of them have been with Jiang Zhu since they were young and grew up together.
Jiang Zhu's aura was much calmer than when he first arrived at Jingkanzi Village.
After giving his instructions, Changbo led his men to follow Wei Li and Jiang Chi and leave through a shortcut.
"General, where are we going? The mark left by the prince is broken, we~"
"Look around here." Jiang Zhu's face was hidden under the mask, and his emotions were also concealed.
Just as Chang He was about to leave, his expression changed, "General, there are a large number of refugees coming over there."
Jiang Zhu put away his thoughts and looked towards the road leading to Jingkanzi Village. Indeed, there were hundreds of refugees rushing towards this side.
"They may not be refugees. Their steps are orderly yet chaotic, and they are clearly well-trained."
Jiang Zhu saw something was wrong at a glance, "Hide first and follow them."
This time when they came to look for someone, Wei Li also volunteered. It was also at this time that he knew that Wei Li was from the Wei family.
When Lingzhou City fell, members of the Wei family either died in battle or went missing, and Wei Li was under tremendous pressure.
This time, it was also Wei Li who came to look for his aunt. Only when they came together did they discover the mark left by the Prince of Yan.
There was no clue about the Prince of Yan in Lingzhou, but unexpectedly the mark reappeared here.
I don't know which party was behind this and erased the traces he left behind.
Jiang Zhu led his men to hide in the woods and waited for the "refugees" to come.
"Commander Cha, Jingkanzi Village was burned down in a fire. Could it be someone from Commander Hua's side~"
"Is there any need to think about it? Who else could it be other than her? This woman will do anything to win the credit."
The leading man was called the Tea Commander, and he gritted his teeth when he mentioned the Flower Commander.
"Even though we haven't caught the remnants of the Wei family, it's good to have captured the Prince of Yan. Didn't the previous news stop here? Let's search the nearby villages and maybe we can catch him alive."
Commander Cha laughed loudly, startling countless birds. He accidentally saw the hem of the clothes on the tree and quickly called out to his men:
"There's someone over there, come on!"
There were only eleven people on Jiang Zhu's side. Seeing that they were exposed, they all came down from the trees and prepared to fight.
"General, we are blocking them, hurry up!"
Changhe pushed Jiang Zhu towards Taiming Mountain, signaling him to leave.
"No need!" Jiang Zhu refused directly, drew out his long sword and went forward.
