With his hands behind his back, he ate a melon, and the country's fortune soared.

The Imperial Palace of Chu State.

The spies that Da Chu had carefully cultivated for decades not only had their identities exposed, but the Chu family even sent their heads to the door of Shui Qiheng's imperial study.

Not only that, the person who delivered the gift came and went without a trace, and the imperial guards on duty in the imperial study didn't even notice any clues.

When Shui Qiheng was in a panic, he received an urgent report from the border. The Chu family army suddenly sent troops to Zhouling, Danhai and Weizhou on the grounds that the Chu State had planted Wang Han and other spies.

"Zhou Ling, Dan Hai, and Weizhou, hahaha, hahaha," Shui Qiheng suddenly burst into laughter.

Twenty years ago, Xiao Chengxi had just ascended the throne and had not yet firmly established himself on the throne.

Shui Qiheng took advantage of this opportunity to send troops to the Xia State and captured three cities of Xia State in one fell swoop.

Now, the Chu family army dares, dares...

Who gave them the confidence?

He threw the urgent report on the ground, stood up suddenly, and with red eyes, he drew the dagger from his waist, "Xia dog, Xia dog, you bitch of the Chu family, a scumbag, a lowly embryo, ah, ah,"

He waved the dagger wildly like a madman.

The eunuch knelt obediently on the ground, his eyes closed with a look of despair. Suddenly, his neck felt cold and he sighed helplessly.

As expected, I will die today.

Shui Qiheng had lost his mind. It was not enough that he killed the eunuch who had served him for most of his life with one knife, so he stabbed him several times in a row.

The eunuch who was delivering the message had never seen such a scene before, and was so frightened that he unconsciously moved towards the door of the imperial study. At this time, Shui Qiheng raised his head and looked at the eunuch with a pair of eyes redder than those of a wild beast.

The eunuch was so frightened that he froze and dared not move. Shui Qiheng's hands were covered in blood. He hunched over like a devil and approached the eunuch with a hoarse sound.

Just as he raised his dagger and was about to kill the eunuch, another palace servant came to report, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has been murdered, and General Anu is missing, Your Majesty,"

The palace maid was frightened by the blood all over the floor of the imperial study. She stopped in her tracks and knelt outside the door with trembling legs.

Shui Qiheng was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and suddenly his breathing became rapid.

It took him a long while to finally regain his senses. He frowned as he looked at the blood all over the floor of the imperial study and the body of the eunuch who had been stabbed to pieces by him.

Disgusted turned his head, "What? Say it again."

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager was attacked on White Tiger Street, and General Anu and Captain Anu are also missing."

The palace maid tried to speak clearly with a trembling voice, but her voice still shook unnaturally.

“Ha, ha,” Shui Qiheng stood up straight, raised his head and sneered, “Lin Wuwei, Chu Feng, ah,” he threw the dagger out with all his strength, “You deserve to die, you all deserve to die…”

Yong'an City is under martial law, and the whole city is searching for the thief Anu.

Shui Qiheng had no time to take care of Xiliang. After ordering the funeral for the empress dowager, he summoned court officials to discuss the border war.

At this time, the secret guards who had followed Lin Wuhui in the State of Chu for more than half a year stared at the unconscious Lin Wuwei with complicated expressions.

The face of their God of War General was full of silver needles, with no empty space at all, which made people feel itchy and numbed.

"Hiss," Lin Jing gasped, "Young Master is too cruel."

"Oh, that's right," Lin Zhongshi turned his head away, unable to bear it any longer. "Didn't Princess Ouyang repeatedly tell you that her poison needle would work after three injections?"

"Yeah, I heard about it too," Lin Bao rubbed his chin, "Could it be that the young master took the opportunity to take revenge on the eldest master?"

"Oh," Lin Jing and Lin Guo nodded in unison, "No wonder it's so cruel, the stab almost makes him look like a human."

"What's this?"

A familiar voice said, "What do you think will happen after all these needles are removed?"

"Ugh," Lin Zhong couldn't help but dry heave, "Will the young master have a pockmarked face?"

"Tsk tsk," Lin Guo sighed, "Our young master is really narrow-minded. He will take revenge on the eldest young master whenever he gets the chance."

"Alas," Lin Jing sighed, "It's just that when he was a child, he was not focused on practicing martial arts and was often beaten by the young master. It's necessary to remember it for so many years."

"In my opinion," Lin Bao crossed his arms, "I was beaten too little when I was a kid."

"is it?"

That strange yet familiar voice spoke again, "Why don't I beat you up a bit more so that you won't dare to make up stories about the young master behind his back."

Forest Spirit...

Lin Zhong...

Lin Bao...

Lin Guo...

Snap, snap, snap, snap.

Lin Wuhui slapped the four secret guards on the head one by one, "Go, go, go quickly, don't get in my way."

"Okay," the four secret guards laughed awkwardly and quickly ran out of the bedroom.

"Humph," Lin Wuhui rolled his eyes at their backs, exhaled deeply and stroked his chest, "Luckily I can run fast."

Recalling that just as he left the city gate, Yong'an was under martial law. It would be a lie to say that he was not afraid. Fortunately, he escaped danger this time.

He lowered his head to look at his eldest brother who was in a coma. "Ouch," he was startled by the densely packed needles on his eldest brother's face. "Disgusting."

Suddenly I felt a little embarrassed. He was indeed a bit harsh.

Lin Wuhui touched his nose and called "Serve the Country with Loyalty" again, "You guys, take all the silver needles off the young master's face, be gentle."

After giving the order, he shook his sleeves and left.

Serve the country with loyalty...

They said that the young master was narrow-minded. Several people looked at each other and thought, why should they mess with him for no reason?

Helplessly, he could only endure the numbing scalp and worked hard to remove all the densely packed silver needles on Lin Wuwei's face.

Lin Wuhui had already eaten the braised pork elbow in this farmyard.

Shui Qiheng could never have imagined that Lin Wuhui and his group settled in Xi'an Village not far from Yong'an City.

After resting for a while, Lin Wuhui sent a letter to Xiliang, disguised himself again, and boarded a merchant ship bound for Xiliang.

At this time, Ma Dequan, who was supposed to guard Xiliang, led an army of 300,000 to meet Chu Feng.

Chu Feng felt mixed emotions as he looked at Ma Dequan, whose demeanor was completely different from before.

Even though he was at the border, he had heard a lot of rumors about the queen these days, so naturally he heard more bad words than good ones.

But at this moment, he was convinced by the queen. If he were Emperor Mingde, he would never hand over hundreds of thousands of troops to a eunuch.

But the Queen could use people like Ma Dequan without any scruples. Chu Feng could imagine that if the Queen lost power in the future, some people would use Ma Dequan to attack the Queen.

Chu Feng and his children also welcomed Ma Dequan. Chu Xinghe had seen Ma Dequan in the palace before, and she had no prejudice against him. "General Ma."

She bowed generously and Ma Dequan also returned the greeting in a friendly manner.

"Oh," Chu Xinghe's elder brother Chu Qiyun had no good feelings towards eunuchs, "The Queen is so bold that she dares to use anyone."

His voice was soft, but the tent was small enough that people who should and shouldn't have heard could hear what he was muttering.

Ma Dequan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly stretched out his hand and punched Chu Qiyun in the face. Chu Qiyun reacted quickly and blocked it with his backhand, but he felt a sharp pain in his side.

He bared his teeth, "You, you are despicable,"

"This is called making a feint to the east and attacking in the west," Ma Dequan sneered, "Young General has been guarding Nanye City for all these years, so you must know that deception is the best strategy in war, right?"

As he said this, he turned his head to look at Chu Qicai and Chu Qifu, who also had disdain on their faces, and led the three Chu brothers out of the tent with quick and unceremonious moves.

"Dad," Chu Xinghe grabbed Chu Feng's arm, "General Ma knows his limits. My daughter has braised pig's trotters. Do you want to eat some?"

Chu Feng...

He immediately withdrew his gaze from his sons, and obediently sat down with his daughter, waiting to eat the braised pig's trotters.

Well, the useless son is not as caring as his daughter. Not only is the braised food made by his daughter thoughtful, but it is also delicious.
