The besties traveled through the book together, and the prince and general became abandoned husbands

Jun Xiaochen had no intention of letting Xu Junjun sleep in his bed.

During the time he was in a coma, his body was infected with the epidemic and the house he lived in was no longer safe.

He didn't want Xu Junjun to have another accident.

He let Weidong lead the way and carried the person back to the room. He bent down to take off Xu Junjun's shoes and socks and covered her with a quilt. Jun Xiaochen looked deeply at her slightly tired face before turning around and walking out of the room.

As soon as he walked out of the room, Jun Xiaochen's body shook and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.

But as the black blood spurted out, his depressed chest immediately felt relieved.

Wei Dong was startled and was about to ask, but he saw Jun Xiaochen raised his hand to stop him.

When he was far enough away to not disturb Xu Junjun, Jun Xiaochen spoke hoarsely:

"Order the kitchen to prepare some light meals and send them here. Also, tell me everything that happened after I fell unconscious, in every detail."

"It's the master."

Seeing that Jun Xiaochen was not seriously injured, Wei Dong breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to go forward to help him back to the room, but Jun Xiaochen raised his hand and brushed him away.

After using up the things and taking the pills that Xu Junjun had prepared for him, Jun Xiaochen listened to Wei Dong explain all the news from Xinjiang City and the capital. A hint of murderous light flashed in Jun Xiaochen's amber eyes.

"Master, when Miss Xu arrived in Jiangcheng, I took it upon myself to write a letter back to the Emperor.

Calculating the time, the Emperor will receive the letter in six days."

Jun Xiaochen hummed, reached out to take the teacup, and when he moved, a glaring red spot on his forearm was exposed, which made Wei Dong's expression freeze.

Thinking of the betrayed guards, Wei Dong spoke with hatred:

"Master, I have killed the personal guard Jiang Muge. Do you want me to take care of his family?"

The betrayal by his personal guards was a great humiliation for Weidong.

If Jun Xiaochen had not been unconscious after being poisoned and Wei Dong had not been unable to rush to Jiang Mu's house, he would have personally led people to Jiang Mu's house to investigate.

"Send someone to investigate secretly, don't take action yet."

Jiang Mu has been Jun Xiaochen's personal guard for seven or eight years and has always been loyal to him. Jun Xiaochen did not expect that he would attack him this time.

However, after this lesson, Jun Xiaochen will be more vigilant in the future and will never easily turn his back to others.

Even if they are subordinates who share life and death with you.

He lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea. The overly bitter taste made Jun Xiaochen frown.

"Set up a few screens in the lobby and summon all the officials from Jiangcheng. Today, I will settle a bloody score with them."

Wei Dong knew that his master was angry, nodded in agreement, turned around and walked out of the room quickly.

Since the master came to Xinjiang City, things were not smooth at first. Many officials in Xinjiang City seemed to be instructed by others and kept disobeying the master's orders.

Later, the master's poisoning was related not only to the personal guard Jiang Mu, but also to this group of officials from the border city.

Now that the master has awakened, it is time to settle the accounts.

With anger in his heart, Wei Dong walked faster and faster. He pointed at a few personal guards and went to each mansion to deliver the message and bring people.

Jiangcheng is a vast city. In the past, it was home to many people and was extremely bustling.

After a plague, people panicked and abandoned the city, and the number of people left in the city dropped sharply by eight to nine out of ten.

The common people left, but the officials in the city could not leave, so after Wei Dong rode a fast horse to notify everyone, twenty or thirty officials hurried to the city lord's mansion.

Upon hearing that the Regent had awakened, some officials were happy, while others were worried. Their mindsets and states of mind were very different.

More than a dozen of them were worried and almost peed their pants when they arrived at the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion and looked at the tall shadow behind the screen.

After all, none of them expected that Jun Xiaochen, who was poisoned and on the verge of death, could still survive.

A dozen people who had something to hide were so nervous that they couldn't speak. They just kept wiping the hot sweat from their foreheads, trying to calm themselves down.

Jun Xiaochen sat upright in the back, playing with a short blade in his hand. A cold light burst out from the edge of the blade, leaving one light and shadow after another on the screen.

The thirty or so officials in the hall noticed something was wrong and the conversation gradually died down until the entire hall was silent. Then a cold voice was heard from behind the screen.

"During the time that this king was in a coma, were you all sleeping well?"

Everyone was shocked and could hear the displeasure in Jun Xiaochen's words, their minds spinning rapidly.

After looking at each other, they all lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Jun Xiaochen sat high up, taking in everyone's reactions. After a moment, the short blade in his hand flew out of his hand, making a slight buzzing sound, and pierced through the screen in the blink of an eye, going straight to the throat of an official in the crowd.

Before the official could react, he felt a pain in his neck.

A streak of blood spurted out, and the short blade that had cut deep into his throat continued to move forward without slowing down. It passed through the crowd and plunged into the door behind them with a bang, with the tail of the blade trembling continuously.

A few screams echoed through the crowd, but were quickly suppressed by people covering their mouths.

Everyone stared at the official who was covering his throat with their hands in fear. When they saw him fall to the ground with a thud while pressing his throat which was bleeding, everyone also trembled.

"Your Majesty, why did you summon these officials?

Why do they kill officials as soon as they meet? "

One of the officials bravely straightened up, looked through the corner of the screen pierced by the short blade, and mustered up the courage to look at the man with a gloomy face behind the screen.

When the official saw the man's strange amber eyes, his neck shrank and the courage he had just accumulated disappeared in an instant.

Jun Xiaochen pulled up a bloody smile at the corner of his lips and ordered his personal guards to take back the short blade. His fingertips stroked the warm blood on it, and he looked cold and terrifying.

The officials saw Jun Xiaochen's movements through the screen, and were afraid that he would raise his hand and take another life, so everyone felt insecure.

The official who had just spoken was so frightened that he was afraid that he would be the next soul to be killed by the sword.

“Don’t be nervous, everyone.

This king invites you all here today just to be witnesses.

Some of you colluded with my personal guards to poison me and mixed the blood of people infected with the plague into my food, trying to kill me.

Now, I am merely punishing the murderer according to the law."

Looking up casually at the officials who had the biggest reactions, Jun Xiaochen lazily raised his hand, and the short blade in his hand shot out, taking two more lives in the blink of an eye.

The blood of the murdered official splattered on the faces of the people around him, frightening them so much that they jumped up and down to avoid him.

As panic spread throughout the venue and everyone felt threatened, Jun Xiaochen spoke again:

“As for the remaining people, I will not list them one by one.

This king gives you one day to reveal the murderer behind this. Anyone who dares to conceal it will suffer the same fate as the three people on the ground."

There was a commotion among the officials, and everyone looked at Jun Xiaochen with fear and trepidation.

Jun Xiaochen's expression was indifferent. He looked at Wei Dong and ordered in a cold voice:

"Before arresting you gentlemen, please collect some interest for me first."

Wei Dong stood behind Jun Xiaochen like a statue, bowed respectfully upon hearing his words, and said loudly:

"I obey my orders!"

As Wei Dong raised his hand, the door that was wide open just now was slammed shut. The officials in the venue shuddered all over and subconsciously huddled together to try to avoid danger.

Jun Xiaochen's personal guards separated the crowd and accurately captured thirteen officials. After pulling them out and tying them up with ropes, they drew the dagger from their waist.

A flash of cold light appeared, and ears stained with blood were thrown to the ground.

Amidst the screams of pain, Jun Xiaochen stood up and left.
