Quick Wear: The scumbag is on the prowl, beware

How can this be a child?

He raised his face, and it was the face of an adult man, even with a few deep wrinkles.

He is actually a dwarf!

The dwarf smiled sinisterly, and a sharp blade popped out of his hand. The blade turned green and stabbed towards Huo Yu like lightning.

Huo Yu's pupils contracted sharply, but the dwarf was in his arms and it was too late to dodge.

"General, be careful..."

The men looked terrified and held their breath at the critical moment.

Just when the poisonous tip of the knife was about to touch Huo Yu's armor, the sinister smile on the dwarf's face suddenly froze and his movements also stopped.

Huo Yu took the opportunity to push the dwarf away with a palm, and he fell to the ground without a sound.

Only then did everyone realize that there was a dart stuck in the back of his head. The dart was deeply embedded in his brain, with only a small tail left outside.

The sound of horse hooves rang out, and the man jumped off his horse.

The men all bowed to the newcomers, their voices filled with gratitude.

"Yes, Miss..."

"The lady is here..."

Huo Yu suddenly raised his eyes and saw a woman in red holding a silver spear upside down, her long black hair neatly tied up, and a cold look on her delicate face.

He took a few steps forward and shouted in surprise, "Girl, why are you here?"

Qi An looked at the tall, dark and resolute general in front of him. His serious face made him smile with a mouthful of white teeth when he saw his daughter.

A total daughter slave.

Qi An sighed in his heart, he was a tough guy with a soft heart, a good man who stood up to the sky. It was a pity that he died in his previous life.

Fortunately, she is here, and Huo Yu will not make the same mistake again.

Recalling Huo Wushuang's usual personality, Qi An rolled his eyes and said unhappily:

"You even asked me why I came. If I hadn't come, I would have become a fatherless child by now."

Seeing that his precious daughter was angry, Huo Yu scratched his head and said with a chuckle: "Dad, it's okay. I will pay attention next time. I will pay attention."

This scene had often been played out in the military camp before. The subordinates had long been accustomed to their majestic general, and often put on a smile while being scolded by the young lady.

Huo Yu circled around her, and the more he looked at his daughter, the happier he became:

"Wushuang, you haven't told dad yet, why aren't you staying in the capital? Where's your mother? Did something happen?"

Qi An answered him: "My mother is here too, in the tent. I will explain to you when I get back."

Huo Yu is upright, but he is never vague when it comes to serious matters.

Looking at my daughter's expression, I knew that something big must have happened, but it was not convenient to say it in front of others.

Although everyone here is his subordinate, human nature is unpredictable and there is no guarantee that accidents will not happen.

Qi An poked the dwarf's corpse with his silver spear, and then looked at the other corpses of Japanese pirates on the ground.

"Dad, are you sure these are all Japanese pirates?"

Qi An had previously guessed that these Japanese pirates might be people sent by the emperor or Zhao Zhen to impersonate them.

Being reminded by his daughter, Huo Yu immediately thought of his previous suspicions.

He personally checked all the bodies of the Japanese pirates, and his expression soon became solemn.

Not right.

These are indeed Japanese pirates, but they are not ordinary Japanese pirate soldiers, but Japanese pirates' death squad!

Others may not know, but he once captured a Japanese pirate's assassin and knew that they had a small scorpion mark on their waist.

The bodies of these people all had the scorpion mark on them, including the dwarf.

However, the assassins were all here to carry out assassination missions, so why would they come to rob a poor village? And that dwarf.

These people are probably coming for him.

The assassins were used to attract his attention, and the dwarf who looked like a child was the killer weapon left for him.

If Wushuang had not arrived in time, he would have been stabbed by the dwarf and poisoned.

When he dies of the poison, everyone will think that he was successfully assassinated by the Japanese pirates.

But the border is so heavily guarded, yet this group of people were able to appear here quietly, which can only mean one thing.

There were spies in the army who provided them with convenience.

The first person that came to his mind was the military inspector Kang Hai, who was sent by the emperor.

In name, it was to assist him in managing military affairs, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that it was actually surveillance.

Qi An squatted down and put his hand on the dwarf's head. The person had just died and his memory had not yet completely disappeared.

Qi An closed his eyes and searched for a moment, then opened them again, with a cold look in his eyes.

So that’s it!

It turned out that it was the emperor and Zhao Zhen who did it.

In his previous life, Huo Yu was stabbed and poisoned. His subordinates panicked and rushed him back to the camp for treatment.

After Huo Yu died, his trusted soldiers came to the village to investigate, only to find that the village had already been burned down by a huge fire.

The bodies of the Japanese pirates had turned into charcoal, and Huo Wushuang found nothing after his arrival.

It's a crude plan, simple and crude but effective.

After instructing his men to resettle the injured villagers, Qi An and Huo Yu returned to the military camp.

Upon learning that the general's life was hanging by a thread and that his daughter arrived in time to save him, Shen's face turned pale.

Could it be... Could it be that everything Wushuang dreamed about was true?

The emperor really wants to wipe out the entire Huo family!

Seeing that Shen was panicking, Qi An left the tent, giving the couple some private space and letting Huo Yu coax his wife.

Just ask, where can you find such a caring child?

Qi An thought that it had been almost three days since they left the capital, and the people who were keeping an eye on the General's Mansion must have already told the Emperor.

The emperor kept Huo Yu's wife and daughter in the capital as hostages to prevent Huo Yu from rebelling, and also to create momentum and let the court and the public see how he treated his brother's family.

In this way, once Huo Yu dies, not only can he clear his connection with the matter, but he can also better control the Huo family army.

In fact, the emperor had no intention of touching Huo Yu's wife and daughter, and did not take these two women seriously.

He only planned to wait for Huo Yu to die, ensure that the mother and daughter would live a prosperous and worry-free life, and then from time to time he would commemorate his deceased brother and establish himself as a good person who values ​​friendship and loyalty.

To put it bluntly, he wanted both military power and fame, and he wanted to be both powerful and independent.

Qi An also admired these emperors. Reputation was of no use; the power in one's hands was real.

You have the biggest fist, so you are the boss. Who dares to fart?

As for the reputation after death, you are already dead, what's the point? What's the use of praising you a few times and you can be resurrected?

In short, after Huo Yu died in his previous life, Huo Wushuang fled to the border overnight, led his troops to repel the enemy, and showed his prowess.

This aroused the emperor's fear. She was afraid that Huo Wushuang would know what he had done to Huo Yu and lead the Huo family army in rebellion.

This led to the later extermination of the Huo family.

Qi An thought that since she and Shen suddenly disappeared, the old bastard must be getting restless and suspecting that Huo Yu was going to rebel.

When I get the news that Huo Yu has escaped death, I'm afraid I'll be scared to death.

Qi An guessed correctly.

In the magnificent palace, the emperor angrily asked, "Haven't you found Shen and Huo Wushuang yet?"

The commander of the Imperial Guards said tremblingly, "Your Majesty, we have searched all over Shengjing, but still can't find him. We have also shown the portrait to the soldiers at the city gate, but they all said they have never seen him."

The emperor threw the teacup in his hand and said, "What's the point of me raising you, you are a bunch of useless people who can't even find two weak women?"

The commander knelt down, sweat dripping from his face: "This subordinate deserves death."

"Why don't you go and find him quickly? Are you kneeling here waiting for him to show up?"

"Yes, I'll go right away."

After everyone had left, the emperor sat dejectedly on the couch, his chest heaving and his heart in panic.
