These days she has been working a reversed day and night cycle, on call at all times, and working overtime and overtime. If her boss doesn't give her overtime pay, she will be angry with him.

He ran all the way to the main house, where almost all his trusted scouts were waiting, their eyes wide open.

Qianli and Xiyan were almost standing at the front, craning their necks to look.

Everyone wants to see who Qi Sheng, the cunning and cautious old fox, will go to see when he goes out late at night, and what he will say.

So everyone is like a long-necked goose.

Only Lou Junze was the calmest. Of course, his status as a king made him calm, even though his heart was in turmoil.

In the picture, in the dark night,

Qi Sheng had already arrived at the camp outside Wucheng. He avoided the patrols and defenses and sneaked into a lieutenant general's tent. After sitting firmly, he picked up a tinderbox and lit the candle inside.

The light ignited, lighting up the darkness,

The lieutenant general Sun Hou on the bed jumped up with a startle, drew his sword, and stabbed out with the tip of the sword.

All the generals who have experienced battles are vigilant.

"it's me!"

When Qi Sheng's voice sounded, Lieutenant General Sun Hou also reacted. After realizing that it was his top enemy, he quickly put away his sword. He almost sprained his waist during the process of stabbing and putting it away.

He was surprised and asked, "General, why are you here in this situation in the middle of the night?"

"follow me!"

"Yes!" Sun Hou followed immediately. Before going out, he placed a stand to support the cloak, projecting his shadow onto the tent, creating the illusion that he had been reading documents in the tent all night.

The two finally rode their horses to an empty desert outside the city.

This place is empty, with vast desert, all gravel and gravel. At least the area within ten miles is visible, without even a blade of grass. Against the bright moonlight tonight, any living creature around can be seen clearly.

This is the perfect place for a confidential conversation, and there is no need to worry about the news leaking out.

Qi Sheng then spoke, and got straight to the point: "The prince must have discovered it!"

No matter how deeply or secretly he hid, in the case of the Zhenbei Marquis being framed, the Huai'an garrison had to go to the northern border to assist the imperial envoy in confiscating the property. They had to sneak in in advance and plan all this, so they had to pass through Wucheng.

The commander of Wucheng must have known that a large number of Huai'an troops were crossing the border with weapons and armor.

He can't escape responsibility.

In Wucheng, there must be at least a dozen people involved in helping Huai'an's troops come in, transferring the garrison, and coordinating the planning.

Sun Hou, the lieutenant general of the Wucheng garrison, was involved in the conspiracy. He was the one who mobilized the soldiers guarding the city gate and was an informant planted in the army by Qi Sheng.

Sun Hou said: "Your Highness, he has no evidence."

The lieutenant general was confident that he was doing things carefully and cleanly.

"If he kills his generals without any evidence, he will lose the support of his army. He is now trapped in a remote corner surrounded by enemies. He is waiting to quell the rebellion and recover the lost territory. What he needs most is the loyalty of the Northern Army."

"Humph, what a lucky remark!"

The prince is a man of vision, and others are not blind either. I guess many people have begun to doubt him, otherwise why hasn't anyone come out to give advice when the prince has made things difficult for and humiliated them so many times?

There was one thing he didn't want to admit. Even when the Marquis of Zhenbei died unjustly and was charged with heinous crimes, it failed to shake the morale of the Northern Territory's army. There were countless people willing to die to save Lou Junze. In this world, what else could shake the loyalty of the Northern Territory's Gu family army?

What's more, he has now restored his identity and many people are responding to his request.

Qi Sheng said: "Liang Nu has been taken away for interrogation."

"Uncle Liang won't confess!"

"The prince already knows the secret of the dungeon in the mansion, and only Liang Nu knows about Zhui Yun, but now the prince knows..."

"What did you say...?" Sun Hou was so surprised that he even raised his voice. When he came to his senses, he suddenly fell silent and his expression slowly changed.

I subconsciously looked around, but there were no other living creatures around except a few flying moths, which seemed to be fighting their last battle against late autumn.

Qi Sheng turned around and looked at the barracks with lights at the foot of the mountain. Many of the patrols walking back and forth inside had already changed their routes and formations. It was estimated that there would be another round of rotation tomorrow. He whispered:

"Time is running out!"

There is no need to be optimistic. If you delay any further you will surely die.

"I haven't received any carrier pigeons recently. It's very strange. Go in person and contact Huai'an. Together we can capture the prince."

"What if Huai'an doesn't agree? After all, the situation is different now. All parties are weighing the pros and cons, and no one wants to be the first to step forward and be consumed." Lieutenant General Sun Hou did not have Qi Sheng's insight into the situation, so he asked this question.
