Jiang Jing thought of his father and said in a low voice.

"The guards in Wutie County should be very strict nowadays. Why don't we go there in a few days?"

"Let's go now, but before we go, I need to solve a mystery." Jiusu looked towards the Monster Mountain, "Is there a human or a monster in this place?"

The hot springs in the back mountain are still there.

No abnormalities were found around.

Jiang Jing said: "The corpse should be on the mountain near Wutie County."

Sure enough, the two looked at the map and found a cave with two guards when they were about to step into Wutie County. Jiusu chuckled and said, "It can't be the demon king, right?"

Jiang Jing said softly: "If it was the demon king, these two human guards would have been eaten long ago."

After knocking out the guard, they entered the cave.

The torches around were swaying in the mountain wind. The further they went in, the clearer the sound of iron pounding became. This was probably the place where King Chang forged weapons. Just as they were about to leave, they heard footsteps behind them.

A man's voice said gloomily.

"Behead those two guards and feed them to the wolf den that I raise. Lou Ming, if you mess up this, I will kill you!"

"Yes!" Lou Ming knelt on the ground with sweat all over his forehead.

Seeing the prince stand up, he quickly got up and followed.

The two people hiding in the blind spot of the cave were inevitably shocked, but this was not the place to talk, so they hurriedly left the cave and knocked out two more guards.

Prince Chang was furious: "What a bunch of rubbish! They actually let someone in! They have already found their way to Wutie County and the cave. Are they going to the palace tomorrow?!"

Lou Ming crawled in front of him, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, and he complained.

"Your Majesty, an informant reported that Jiang Jinyou has come to Wutie County, and it seems that he has been ordered to investigate your affairs."

Prince Chang sneered. He recalled the time when the Jiang family was against him in Shengjing, especially Jiang Jing, who was obviously not a prince but acted so noble. It was really hateful.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he slammed his palm on the table.

"Send someone to kill Jiang Jinyou and pin the blame on the prince. Also, gather all the information about Jiusu for me! I want to meet her. What kind of strange woman is this? The prince can brag about her in front of my father?"

Also as a man.

Prince Chang just didn't believe it. He didn't like the fact that the prince praised the woman to the skies. If the prince and Jiang Jing became enemies, then there would be something interesting to watch.

Lou Ming hurriedly took the order and went down.

I walked out of the cave, wiped the sweat off my face, patted my chest, and felt like I had survived a disaster.

"Phew, I was scared to death."

In fact, he had something hidden in his heart, but he didn't dare tell King Chang.

The secret letter written to him by Prince Chang was missing, which included information about private military training and the killing of Jiang Jinyou. He hoped it was lost. If it was taken by that woman, he would not let her off easily.

Lou Ming smiled sinisterly and said, "It seems like I haven't seen my darling for a long time."

The two people who escaped looked at the rainy day and hid in the hot spring. Fortunately, the terrain on the mountain was complicated and difficult to chase. They were not in the mood to take a bath and just simply tidy up.

I never thought that King Chang would come to this small county town.

Jiang Jing was worried. He said, "Prince Chang is ruthless and vindictive. Almost everyone he targets has a bad ending. Ah Su, the best thing to do is to stay away from him."

Jiusu looked at this paradise, and suddenly, meeting his nervous eyes, she chuckled.

"Before I become strong enough, I will definitely not provoke a ferocious beast, but if he is injured, I don't mind giving him another blow."

Jiang Jing felt relieved when he thought about her character. She was not a piece of fish that could be slaughtered at will.

After resting for a while here, they set out for the location indicated by the detector under the cover of night.

The mountain road was steep and difficult to walk at night. The only sound they could hear was each other's breathing, which was the only reassuring feeling. There were stars twinkling not far away, so Jiang Jing quickly put out the torch.

"It seems we're here."

Jiusu took a breath and said, "I didn't expect that the thing on the detector was the iron ore dug by King Chang. He is quite amazing. He can find it in such a remote location."

Jiang Jing's eyes darkened.

"He was unwilling to be just a prince for his whole life. He looked down on the prince, but no matter how hard he tried, he was only rewarded on the basis of being a prince. The emperor did not abolish the prince, and the prince was cautious and prudent and rarely made mistakes. He could not find a reason and could only prepare a backup plan.

He lay dormant for ten years, just to plot a successful rebellion one day. "

The two men walked forward in the dark, but saw Lou Ming assembling his troops, seemingly preparing to go down the mountain. When they got closer and listened, they realized who they were going to kill. Jiusu murmured, "What they fear most is being caught. Who made them mobilize so many troops?"

Jiang Jing's throat tightened.

In an instant, she understood.

"Hurry, let's go find Uncle Jiang."

Only when they were far away from them did they dare to risk raising torches to light the way. The mountain path was too difficult to walk on, and it had rained, so the path was extremely muddy. They dared not walk and could only pass through the rocks and grass beside.

There were several times when Jiusu was so anxious that he almost fell down.

Every time, Jiang Jing would hug her waist in time, "Don't worry, we're still a little distance away from the road. Come, hold my waist and you won't fall."

After going down the mountain, we heard a loud noise coming from the mountain.

"Oh no, they're catching up." Jiusu didn't bother to pretend to be reserved, and went to the side to pretend that Jie Ran had come, and called Jie Ran out directly in front of him, "The matter is urgent, there is no time to explain."

Jiang Jing helped her onto the horse, and he stretched out his long legs and got on the horse swiftly.

He grabbed the reins, half hugged the woman, and when the horse's hooves were galloping, he reached out and put the cap on her, "Asu, thank you, you are my lucky star, and lucky stars need no explanation."

Jiusu's eyes flickered, she raised her eyes slightly, looking at the moonlight, oh, no, there is no moon tonight.

The two were very close, and she could see the seriousness in the man's eyes. She couldn't help but kiss him on the face. The man was stunned, and her ears felt hot. She lowered her head and said.

"A reward from the lucky star."

When we arrived at our destination, the rain was getting heavier. The two guards at the door opened the door quickly upon seeing someone coming. The man in the bamboo hat said happily, "Sir, the young master is here."

Jiang Jinyou ran out immediately, "Why are you here? Come in quickly."

Jiusu looked at the small courtyard, which would be breached from time to time, and she said, "Uncle, we came from the mountain and saw King Chang sending troops."

"Kill me?" Jiang Jinyou showed surprise on his face. He walked into the house and looked at the map. "They have many people, and I only have five or six people. They are all given by the prince. I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape."

Jiang Jing said: "They are coming."

Jiusu's eyes flickered. The two places were close to each other. Even if he ran, where could he run to? The entire Wutie County was probably full of King Chang's people.

"We can use the opponent's force to counter the opponent's force."

She pointed to the county government office not far away.

"We can use the power of the government to fight against Lou Ming."

Jiang Jinyou frowned and said puzzledly: "As far as I know, Liu Fangkai is the King of Chang's man."

"Of course, that dog official must be King Chang's man, but they don't know each other. We can use fine salt to talk about it." Before Jiusu finished speaking, a voice came from outside the door.

The secret guard clasped his fists and said, "Master Jiang, they are coming. They are less than a hundred meters away. There are three or four hundred of them."

Even if the ten secret guards have great martial arts skills, two fists cannot beat four hands.

Jiang Jinyou packed his things and said, "Let's go! To the county government office."
