Your Human Emperor Banner is already emitting evil spirits, and you're still pretending to be a

"Boss, how could you have injured someone so badly? Just because you're so popular right now, especially this Xu Feng, I'm afraid he's caught the emperor's eye. If he blames us, I'm afraid we can't afford it. How is this different from rebellion?"

After the Jinyiwei people retreated, Huangfu Kai's subordinates stepped forward and asked.

Huangfu Kai usually does things with moderation, and logically should not make such a fatal mistake. However, the knife he just swung mercilessly hit Xu Feng's chest directly, clearly aiming to take his life.

"How could I have known this kid was a bit treacherous? He's clearly quite strong, and he could have definitely avoided my attack just now. I don't know why he deliberately didn't dodge and took the blow head-on."

Huangfu Kaixin had a bad premonition in his heart. He realized belatedly that the knife attack just now definitely did not seem to have been cut on flesh. According to his previous experience, Xu Feng should have been wearing close-fitting soft armor.

But what he couldn't understand was why blood splattered and soaked his clothes when he cut the soft armor.

"Forget it. We've already successfully stopped the Jinyiwei from getting close to the mine. The next thing should be left to Jianfengshan to handle. Let's go back and keep an eye on the Jinyiwei first."

Unable to figure it out, Huangfu Kai stopped worrying about it. In his opinion, as long as the weapons workshop was not exposed, the rest would not be a big deal. If the court really wanted to hold him accountable, there was no way to stop it.

It's nothing more than fighting the enemy with soldiers and blocking the water with earth. It's not too late to find excuses and deal with it perfunctorily when the time comes.

The first thing to do now is to get rid of the weapons workshop as soon as possible, otherwise the Jinyiwei will definitely take action.

Honglian carried Xu Feng back to the garrison. The common people and spies along the way retreated when they saw Xu Feng bleeding in her arms.

The Jinyiwei's high-profile departure from the city naturally attracted attention from all parties. All the major families in Gusu City were watching this side. They all believed that this time the Jinyiwei and the Six Gates would definitely start a big battle.

Unexpectedly, he came back not long after leaving the city. It seems that the expected battle did not happen, but Xu Feng’s injury might become a fuse.

Honglian was extremely anxious. The blood on Xu Feng's body was flowing more and more. As soon as his feet touched the ground, she arranged for her men to call a doctor.

Unexpectedly, before she could finish her words, Xu Feng jumped out of her arms.

"Don't bother with that. Just put on a show with them. Just go to the city and ask a doctor to come over. Remember to keep your mouth shut."

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned, especially Honglian.

They thought Xu Feng was seriously injured this time, but seeing how lively he was now, Honglian realized that she had been deceived by Xu Feng, as he clearly had no injuries at all.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you the full plan in advance. I was worried that the more people knew, the easier it would be for them to notice."

Honglian felt a little resentful, and the guy's dying appearance just now really scared her. The most important thing was that she carried Xu Feng all the way back to the city.

Thinking of this, Honglian became a little angry and punched him in the chest.

This punch made Xu Feng grimace.

"Although my flesh wasn't cut directly, the knife still landed on me."

The close-fitting armor can protect against sharp weapons, but it still has little effect on the impact of weapons. Xu Feng's chest is bruised and purple, but it is only an external injury. He just needs to apply some medicine and recuperate for a period of time.

"I didn't stab you, so how come you bled so much? Next time you find yourself in a place like this, be sure to tell me in advance. I thought I had damaged your foundation."

Honglian was really worried about Xu Feng, and she did not delay at all on the way back. She wanted to give an order and arrange for her Jinyiwei to rush up and kill Huangfu Kai on the spot to avenge Xu Feng.

Fortunately, I didn’t act too impulsively in the end, otherwise it would have been a very bad ending.

"It's just a little trick. I've been preparing for it for a long time, just to guard against Huangfu Kai. Their involvement with Jianfeng Mountain is deeper than we thought. They are willing to take the lead in such matters regardless of the consequences. It seems that in the future, when dealing with Jianfeng Mountain, we must classify Huangfu Kai and Huang Wenzhong as their ranks."

Whether it was because of interests involved or because these two people were wary of Jianfeng Mountain's background, it could not change the fact that they were on the same front.

All these factors must be taken into consideration before taking action.

"This is a sheepskin water bag filled with chicken blood. It will burst if you poke it gently. It's not my blood, so don't worry too much."

After watching Xu Feng pour out the remaining chicken blood from the sheepskin bag, Honglian finally breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down.

What happened in just half a day was so thrilling.

Even someone with a big heart like Honglian couldn't bear it. If this happened a few more times, she would probably have to consider whether she had developed a mental demon when practicing.

"Please don't scare me like this again. If you have any plans, at least tell me in advance. I'm really not mentally prepared at all. Sooner or later, I'll be scared to death by you."

Xu Feng apologized repeatedly. This time there really was a reason for it. He was not sure whether Huangfu Kai would follow. Facts proved that it was not a bad thing to be prepared in advance.

"So what should we do now? They've already ruined our plan. The weapons workshop at the mine must have been moved. It won't be easy to get evidence."

Honglian felt a little regretful. He had thought that he could take this opportunity to completely overthrow Jianfeng Mountain, but who would have thought that the other party would escape at the last moment.

"Huangfu Kai clearly wants to fight us to the death. If we really force our way in, the situation will only get out of control."

Xu Feng was calm and composed, not feeling any regret at all. They believed that they had to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. They had to think about their brothers and not take them to die.

If the two sides fight, who knows how many people will die. It is impossible to escape unscathed with the brothers.

"That's fine. This won't prevent us from obtaining evidence and reporting them to His Majesty. Even if we haven't discovered the weapons workshop, my injuries are the best evidence. You just need to tell His Majesty the truth about what happened today, and the court will naturally make a judgment."

No matter how righteous Huangfu Kai was, the fact that he stopped the Jinyiwei from approaching the mine was a fact. Once the matter was reported to the court, the emperor would definitely make his own connection.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that there is definitely something fishy going on in the mine. If that’s the case, then Xu Feng’s goal has been achieved, but the process was a bit tragic.

Honglian was stunned. She never expected that this was Xu Feng’s real purpose.

I'm afraid even Huangfu Kai didn't think of this. Xu Feng's actions were somewhat unexpected.
