A few days ago, there was no news, no orders, not even a glance of instruction, and all the entrances to the secret passage were suddenly blocked.

The more than one hundred death warriors did not dare to act rashly at first and waited quietly for a while, until they heard the sound of hurried footsteps running everywhere on the ground, and then they realized that something bad was going to happen.

He wanted to break out of the door in a hurry.

But how could a huge rock be chiseled so easily? It was a rock, even if everyone was an expert, it would still take some effort.

The strange thing is that as long as you work hard to chisel away a piece of the stone wall, it will become stronger and stronger.

There was only one vent left, and the foul air in the secret passage made people panic. Everyone was like ants on a hot pot, running around looking for an exit. But no matter where they went, they couldn't get out, and their steps accelerated involuntarily.

Suddenly there was a loud bang, and gravel flew everywhere. The secret passage was forcibly blasted open from a section of the wall. After the smoke and dust quickly dissipated, a man in a black robe stepped back, and a burly man holding a scimitar walked in.

Kuishan’s appearance startled everyone. The masters in the secret passage looked at each other and all put their hands on the hilts of their swords.

Everyone knows General Kuishan Kui. He is a famous general in the Northern Border Army and he is the one who swears to follow Marquis Zhenbei and Prince Junze until death.

Now that he is here, then...

Lou Junze turned the corner, and the moment the people in the secret passage saw him, they all thought it was over.

Zhou Wenshu, who had rushed over, also pointed at a person inside the secret passage and shouted, "It's him. He was the one who sent the transfer order to Master Wu. He was the one who killed Master Wu..."

The people in these secret passages were Qi Sheng's private soldiers and assassins, who had done all kinds of shady things for him over the years.

Qi Sheng knew long ago that he was finished.

Just at this moment my heart died.

He called out to Lou Junze who was about to go in, and asked the only question he could say on his own initiative:

"Why did he attract so many people? Why did so many people pledge their allegiance to him? Was it because he was the Marquis of Zhenbei? Was it because he could inherit the family lineage...?"

"Shut up!" Lou Junze turned around and interrupted him: "Because he is chivalrous and brave, he led the troops by example, starting from the vanguard camp, he once went deep into the enemy's territory for hundreds of miles alone, went alone to save his old subordinates without giving up, fought alone in Shanyangpo, and defended Qingcheng Gate to the death. All the adult sons in his family went to the battlefield, and he protected the northern border all his life..."

"And you, who are always busy with plotting and scheming, even if you have learned the best military tactics and achieved the best career, who would be willing to entrust their life to a second-rate official?"

Therefore, not everyone can be a general, and not everyone can be a king.

But some people don't accept it, thinking it's all fate.

Lou Junze's eyes gradually turned cold, and he gave him a sidelong look of contempt, and ordered Qianli, "No need to wait for an hour, just chop it off now!"

Qianli went up and kicked him: "Go to hell, you dare to compete with our marquis, you are jealous and your mind is clouded, you don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is, you are really obsessed with appearances!" Then he ordered people to drag him outside...

Lou Junze didn't look back and walked into the secret passage.

The masters in the secret passage all drew their swords and rushed over, hoping to escape even though they knew they would die.

But after just a few steps, they were shocked to find that they had lost all their internal strength, their whole bodies were sore and weak, and they could not even hold the sword.

Kuishan brought his men and tied up all the private soldiers inside and outside the secret passage and took them away for interrogation.

That night, all those who participated in the Northern Rebellion half a year ago were arrested.

……

Master Gu Qi was also missing his old friends. He had witnessed too many truths tonight and had seen with his own eyes how some of the people who had once been kind to him betrayed him with gritted teeth.

He was holding a piece of straw in his mouth, lying in the most desolate corner of the Gu Mansion, the most dilapidated woodshed where he had been imprisoned as a child. The old slingshot without a string was spinning irregularly on his fingers.

The boy was confused.

A thin man in black climbed in through the back window, sat next to him and asked, "Seventh Master, you haven't taken revenge yet!"

Gu Qi kicked the man away and yelled, "Get lost!"

After kicking, he wiped his trouser legs.

The thin man said, "Seventh Master, you are really calm. Are you afraid?"

Gu Qi: "Young Master, I still have something to ask him."

……

The truth behind the big case in the North was finally revealed, and all the people involved in the case were arrested. The only busy people left were Qianli and the people in charge of the Criminal Department, who had to continue interrogating the accomplices.

Many people took turns to rest.

The yard finally became quiet.

Lou Junze sat at the new stone table in the pavilion, and Xia Shi also sat at the stone table.

"Your Highness, aren't you sleepy?" Xia Shi asked.
