study.

"What do you think, General Xiao? Is there anything suspicious?" Prefect Li looked for a long time but couldn't find any clues. An ordinary person would find a charred corpse suspicious, but there was nothing suspicious about his attitude towards Pei Jin.

"We really didn't find anything, but the higher-ups sent a message saying we must find Princess Chen. Logically, Yu Guiwan should have set out with Pei Jin, so why didn't we see her this time?"

General Xiao also felt that this matter was very wrong.

"Go check if there are any suspicious people before they enter Yuanzhou?"

"Yes, I'll send someone to check it out right away." Zhuang Feilu agreed.

"By the way, remember to hide the one in the cell. Don't let them find you. It seems that Yu Wang is very likely not dead yet. We must find his whereabouts."

General Xiao narrowed his eyes, a hint of danger in them. This time, while heading to the border, they had heard the news that Yu Yanlin had been assassinated, yet they knew that Yu Yanlin was in Yuanzhou Prison.

It seems that Yu Wang and Yu Yanlin have fooled them all.

Yu Wang cannot survive.

"General, don't worry. No matter how they think, they will never imagine that the real Yu Yanlin is in Yuanzhou." Zhuang Feilu showed an evil smile. Whenever he thought that such a person was now in prison and was not even as good as a human being, he felt happy.

"By the way, pay attention to the two female guards following Pei Jin. I always feel like something is wrong." General Xiao thought of the two female guards following Pei Jin again.

News came from the capital that King Xiaoyao was defeated.

The Marquis of Wei De's Mansion was the hero in suppressing the rebellion. Pei Jin was not a simple person and had to be careful and vigilant. The order from the higher-ups was to find Princess Chen at all costs, but now she was nowhere to be seen. Something was wrong.

……

Yu Guiwan tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She wanted to check the body again, but reason stopped her. Yu Guiwan knew that Li Taishou had people watching them during the day. If General Xiao and his men were really suspicious, checking the body at this time would undoubtedly expose their identities.

"Beili."

Yu Guiwan called out softly, and Beili immediately appeared in Yu Guiwan's room.

"My subordinate is here."

"Go and see if there is anything suspicious between General Xiao and Lieutenant General Zhuang." Yu Guiwan said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Beili's figure disappeared in front of Yu Guiwan.

*

The next day.

Everyone was about to set off, and Yu Guiwan got up early. When she got up, she saw that Beili had returned. She did not ask any questions at this moment, after all, this was not the place to talk.

"Little Marquis."

Yu Guiwan and Bei Li followed Pei Jin. When they reached the door, General Xiao and Zhuang Feilu also arrived. They rode their horses and stopped at the door of the prefect's mansion.

When the two came over, a smell of blood wafted over.

Yu Guiwan's eyes fell calmly on Zhuang Feilu. Where did the bloody smell come from so early in the morning?

"Since the young marquis is ready, let's set off." General Xiao nodded towards Pei Jin.

They all set off together, with three people riding in the front, Yu Guiwan and Bei Li following behind. Bei Li found the right moment to speak to Yu Guiwan, "General Xiao, there's nothing suspicious about you at the moment. It's that Deputy General Zhuang, on the contrary."

"He went to the dungeon late at night and stayed there for half an hour before coming out. I wanted to follow him, but the dungeon was heavily guarded and I couldn't go in alone, so I don't know who is imprisoned there."

No wonder.

She thought to herself, no wonder she smelled blood on Zhuang Feilu just now, it turned out that he had been to the dungeon. However, who was that person worthy of their heavy guard that even Bei Li couldn't get in.

Because there was someone leading the way, the journey was smooth and we even chose the shortest route, so our speed increased.

After a day's journey, everyone finally arrived at the post station. General Xiao dismounted and said, "Young Marquis Pei, please." Then he added, "The post station has limited guest rooms. I'm afraid the two female guards around the young marquis will have to inconvenience them." General Xiao's words had hidden meaning.

Pei Jin laughed twice at first.

"General Xiao, you're joking. These two are no worse than ordinary men. They are among the best in martial arts and have seen all kinds of storms." Pei Jin praised.

"Hearing what the young marquis said, I'd like to have them spar with my men if there's a chance."

"Naturally."

Pei Jin readily agreed, but he became wary of this person.

"Then why not wait for a better day? How about tonight?"

"Then my people will not be polite." Pei Jin looked at him and spoke bluntly.

"Beili, Beiyin."

"I'm here." The two of them walked out at the same time.

Zhuang Feilu also stood up and said, "General, I would like to give it a try."

"Go."

Beiyin, Beili, and Zhuang Feilu stood opposite each other. Pei Jin chuckled, "General, you are looking down on my people a little too much. You only sent one person and thought you could take down two of my generals?"

Although Pei Jin had never seen Bei Li take action, he knew the strength of Xie Sui's secret guards. As for Yu Guiwan's strength, he had also seen it. She was even injured when the two fought, so he was not worried about their strength.

"Hahaha, young marquis, you've misunderstood. Fei Lu's strength is first-class. I'm afraid even if there are two more secret guards, he won't be outmatched."

After he finished speaking, Beili took the initiative to take action.

Bei Li had already swung the whip from his waist and headed towards Zhuang Feilu.

Yu Guiwan did not move for a long time, but walked to the side and watched. This action undoubtedly angered Zhuang Feilu.

How dare a woman look down on him?

Zhuang Feilu couldn't help but feel resentful towards the Beijing Institute of Music.

Zhuang Feilu used a knife, and Bei Li's movements were fast and accurate, but Zhuang Feilu was not at a disadvantage. The two fought back and forth. After watching for a while, Yu Guiwan suddenly moved.

She pulled out the whip from her waist and used the same moves as Bei Li at first glance, but upon closer inspection they were very different.

When Yu Guiwan made her move, Pei Jin finally understood why Yu Guiwan took action so late. It turned out that she was observing Bei Li's moves. She didn't expect that she had learned Bei Li's moves in such a short time.

He used it with ease and made some minor modifications. When the two of them coordinated their moves together, Zhuang Feilu was actually no match for them and fell into a disadvantage.

When Bei Li whipped Zhuang Feilu's sword away, they both stopped and said in unison, "Deputy General Zhuang, we're grateful for your help."

Stopping at the right time is also a way to save each other's face.

This only made Zhuang Feilu's face look even uglier, and he felt that the two of them had given him such an embarrassing situation. At this time, Pei Jin stepped forward to smooth things over, "They grew up together, and their cooperation is perfect. What do you think of their skills, General Xiao?"
