Good! My stupid son finally rebelled!

Huating!

Prefect's Mansion.

Ling Tian couldn't help but sneeze twice at this moment, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: "How abominable."

"Who on earth is saying bad things about me behind my back?"

Chu Wan'er rolled her eyes after hearing this. "Who knows which little girl is thinking about you behind your back?"

"hey-hey."

Ling Tian grinned, and when he turned sideways, he saw Chu Wan'er's bulging cheeks. He felt amused, and Chu Wan'er caught his smile clearly. She snorted, "What are you laughing at?"

"No, no, no." Ling Tian quickly changed the subject.

"Your Highness."

There was a whisper outside the door.

kindness?

Ling Tian's expression straightened when he heard this: "Come in."

next second.

A graceful figure appeared in Ling Tian's eyes. Seeing the person coming, Ling Tian frowned: "Why are you here?"

Qiao Yu!

The killer at that time.

After winning over Qiao Yu, Ling Tian arranged him secretly, and now he is using him as a secret guard. Unless there is an emergency, Qiao Yu will not show up.

"Your Highness, something happened."

Qiao Yu said softly: "I killed almost ten messengers last night."

"It seems that Yuan Heng is also a seasoned man." Ling Tian said, "In order to send the news about the Heaven-Suppressing Army, he really did everything he could, but with me here, he will be able to send the news successfully."

"I'm afraid it's just a foolish dream."

Ling Tian waved his hand: "Qiao Yu, from now on, you can just do things like this, and you don't have to take the risk of seeing me."

"Do not."

Qiao Yu shook his head: "Of course it's not that simple. When I was killing the last person, I accidentally got a secret."

"What secret?"

"Your Highness, these so-called messengers are actually Hua Ting's death row prisoners."

"What?" Ling Tian was shocked when he heard that. He stood up instantly with a look of surprise in his eyes.

Chu Wan'er was nervous: "Why are you so anxious?"

"Isn't it just a death row inmate sending a secret letter?"

"This isn't the first time."

The transportation in Daqian is different from that in the previous life. If you want to block any information, it will be blocked. At some critical moments, if there is really no one, the cage will be opened.

"Do not."

Ling Tian shook his head: "This is absolutely not normal. Think about it carefully. Although it is not the first time in the history of Daqian that a death row prisoner has sent a letter, it is more likely to happen in times of crisis."

"But now it seems that things are by no means that simple."

"Although Huating has fought against the Japanese pirates, Yuan Heng still has the upper hand overall."

“Death row prisoners will not be used at all.”

"The only explanation is..."

While Ling Tian was pondering, Chu Wan'er asked first, "Did he know that the messengers would die?"

"Yes."

Ling Tian nodded: "This is the most terrifying part, why is he so sure?"

"And you prepared death row prisoners to be used as messengers?"

"The only explanation is..."

"He made the arrangements in advance."

Chu Wan'er was puzzled: "But since he knew he was going to die, why did he send someone to deliver the letter? He didn't have to."

"This is the strangest place." Ling Tian glanced at Qiao Yu, who took out a blood-stained secret letter from his arms and handed it to Ling Tian.

The latter took a look.

He even frowned.

The secret letter did not say anything about himself, but just told Emperor Wu that Guimian had private soldiers and was rebellious.

If possible.

Be sure to kill.

It also gave a detailed introduction to the Zhentian Army and the existence of crossbows.

Ling Tian was even more surprised: "This is the first time that the Heaven Suppression Army has appeared. He definitely wouldn't have known about it before."

"Is this a coincidence?"

"No!"

Qiao Yu shook his head: "Your Highness, I heard from that person that they had already started receiving letter delivery training ten days ago."

"Now."

"There are no prisoners in Huating Prison anymore."

kindness?

Ling Tian narrowed his eyes: "What on earth does Yuan Heng want to do?"

"Are you deliberately putting on a show for me?"

"But why is it so coincidental that he started preparing ten days ago?"

Ten days?

and many more!

Ling Tian suddenly turned around and took out a ruler covered with notches. His eyes gleamed with brilliance. Chu Wan'er was startled by him. "What's wrong with you?"

"Maybe this is a coincidence?"

"After all, the Japanese pirates are besieging the city. As the governor of Huating, it is only right for Yuan Heng to make plans early."

"No no no."

Ling Tian shook his head: "Think carefully, when did we leave Kyoto?"

"About twenty days ago."

"How many days did it take us on the road?"

"About ten days."

"If the Great Qian Emperor sends a secret letter to Huating when we leave, how many days will it take?"

"Just considering the speed of the courier, it will take about five days." Chu Wan'er answered Ling Tian subconsciously.

next second.

Chu Wan'er's eyebrows widened, and her eyes were filled with shock: "Are you saying that this was arranged by His Majesty?"

call.

Ling Tian let out a long breath: "This is just my guess. If this is really arranged by the Emperor, I'm afraid that in a few days, a large army will approach from Jinling."

Chu Wan'er didn't take it to heart: "This is great, it can just suppress the Japanese pirates' arrogance."

"I'm afraid Emperor Wu may have other intentions than drinking."

Ling Tian smiled bitterly, and Chu Wan'er's beautiful eyes widened. Now she finally understood what Ling Tian was worried about.

This would be a difficult situation for anyone.

If he really came for the ghost face, wouldn't it be...

Ling Tian has become an abandoned child?

"hateful."

Chu Wan'er couldn't hold back her temper: "I'll fight him."

"No, no, no."

Ling Tian quickly comforted her: "Let's take it one step at a time. Maybe things aren't as bad as we think."

Ling Tian gave Qiao Yu a look, signaling him to go back and continue watching, and the latter left.

at the same time.

Not far from the coast of Huating, on that island, tens of thousands of pirates were training, but Hirata was not happy at all, his eyes were filled with...

humiliation!

Thousands of elite soldiers disappeared yesterday, which was a big blow to him.

"Ah."

Miyashita's voice came: "Hirata-kun, is it just a small setback that makes you so depressed?"

kindness?

Hirata narrowed his eyes and said, "Miyashita, do you have a good idea?"

Crossbow arrows!

It was as if a mountain was pressing down on Hirata's chest.

Whenever he thought of the power of the crossbow, Hirata would feel deeply powerless, but Miyashita chuckled and said, "I don't have any good ideas."

"There is at least one way to try."

"Say it."

Hirata was overjoyed when he heard this, and the latter smiled and said, "Why don't you think about why this Heavenly Guard appeared?"

"Ghost Face!"

Miyashita had already found out everything: "Are you trying to tell me to attack Ghost Face directly?"

"No no no."

Gongxia shook his head: "I have inquired about Guimian before, but there is no news. However, what is certain is that Guimian is with the Sixth Prince of Daqian."

"Since the ghost face can't be caught."

"How can a useless prince like Daqian escape from my palm?"

kindness?

Hirata smiled bitterly: "How can we catch him? We can't even get into Huating now."

"You don't have to worry about this." Gong Xia raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes sparkling: "If I want to go to Huating, who can stop me?"

"Not to mention a useless prince."

"I'll take action."

"Who can protect him at all?"

"Even if it's the famous Ghost Face, it won't work."

"after all!"

"He is a man, not a god."
