Hu Lin looked at the left side of the fork in the road and stood there for a long time. Finally, he smiled bitterly, lowered his eyes, turned around and prepared to drive away.

The carriage was thickly cushioned. He had thought he could take her with him, but he had never imagined that she would rather die with Fu Jiuli, that sinister traitor, than go with him...

After a long silence, he flicked the reins hard. The horse suddenly stood up and neighed, put its front hooves on the ground, and suddenly galloped back the way it came.

However, before they had gone far, they encountered a cloud of flying dust from afar, indicating that a large number of horsemen were approaching.

Hu Lin stopped the carriage and pulled it over to the side of the road.

As the cavalry gradually approached, the large flag fluttered in the wind, and a big word "Thank you" on it was particularly conspicuous.

Hu Lin's pupils suddenly contracted. This...

This is His Majesty's Black Armored Guard!

The Black Armor Guards have a total of 8,000 people. They are the strongest and most powerful force among the North Vietnamese army. They were trained by Fu Jiuli himself and only obey His Majesty.

Your Majesty, are you going to send the Black Armor Guards to arrest Fu Jiuli?

Hu Lin's face turned pale. Fu Jiuli had only brought a few hundred people. Even if they were all top-notch, if they were to face ordinary soldiers, even if one of them was fighting a hundred, it would be no problem.

But if you face the Black Armor Guards, it would be very difficult to fight three alone.

I just wonder how many of these Black Armored Guards are here? Judging by the thunderous sound of their hooves, there should be at least three thousand of them...

The cavalry appeared before their eyes almost instantly.

"Leng Feng?" Hu Lin cried out in shock when he saw the leader of the cavalry.

Wasn't Leng Feng Fu Jiuli's confidant? Ever since Leng Feng and Leng Yue took over the Liangzhou flood disaster, their identities had gone from hidden to public.

But why would Leng Feng bring His Majesty's Black Armored Guards to chase Fu Jiuli now?

Could it be that... Leng Feng is the spy from Prince Li's Mansion?

Before he could figure it out, Leng Feng had already stopped in front of him on his horse.

Leng Feng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Hu Lin? What are you doing here?"

Hu Lin was stunned for a moment, and before he could think of how to put it, Leng Feng glanced at the empty carriage behind him and smiled knowingly.

"What? Are you here to chase Shen Nanxing? You still haven't given up!"

Hu Lin's face suddenly darkened: "No matter why I'm here, it has nothing to do with you, a traitor!"

Although he also disliked Fu Jiuli, he despised this kind of traitor who betrayed his master even more.

Leng Feng wasn't angry either. He just raised his whip and pointed ahead: "There's a fork in the road ahead. Mr. Hu, do you know which direction they went?"

"No comment!" Hu Lin glanced away coldly.

"Really?" Leng Feng sneered, "You knew about this but didn't report it. Aren't you afraid that I'll complain to His Majesty when I get back? So, if Fu Jiuli committed such a crime of treason, the Shangshu Mansion must be an accomplice..."

"Nonsense!" Hu Lin looked at Leng Feng angrily. "My Shangshu Mansion has been loyal to the emperor and patriotic for generations. How could they do such a thing?"

Leng Feng curled his lips: "Is that so! Okay, then I'll give Master Hu another chance. Tell me, which way did they go?"

Hu Lin's face turned grim, his eyes darkened, and he suddenly asked, "I can show you the way, but if we catch Fu Jiuli, can I...?"

"Yes!" Leng Feng agreed decisively. "Miss Shen has only been married into the palace for a short time, so it's impossible for her to know about this matter in advance. Moreover, she has made countless military achievements against North Vietnam. As long as she is willing to abort the evil child in her womb, I will ask His Majesty to spare her life... How do you think?"

"Master Leng, please keep your word!"

"That's natural."

Hu Lin slowly raised his hand, paused for a moment, and finally slid to the right. He said firmly, "They went to the right."

A smile appeared in Leng Feng's eyes, and he didn't even look at Hu Lin.

He suddenly raised his hand and waved it forward vigorously: "Go, left, chase!"

Following the command of the cold wind, the cavalry rumbled towards the left side of the fork in the road like a hurricane.

Looking at the direction the black-armored guards were heading, Hu Lin's expression suddenly changed. He immediately untied the carriage, jumped on the horse, and cracked the whip hard. The horse immediately raised its four hooves and galloped towards the capital.

Beside Leng Feng, a general rode up on his horse, his face gloomy as he warned, "Sir, Master Hu just said the rebels left on the right, so why are we going left? Are you deliberately pretending to obey?"

Leng Feng continued to run at full speed, angrily saying, "That's because Hu Lin lied! If we had listened to him, we wouldn't have been able to catch up with Fu Jiuli even if we chased him to the horizon!"

However, the general still had doubts: "How do you know he lied?"

Leng Feng sneered, "Why should I explain to you my orders? If you take the left and fail to catch up with Fu Jiuli, I will bear all the blame!"

The general stopped talking, slowed down slightly, and retreated behind Leng Feng. He raised his hand and shouted, "Chase! We must bring these traitors to justice!"

"Chase!" A neat roar resounded through the sky, and the cavalry suddenly increased their speed, raising large clouds of dust wherever they passed.

Hu Lin rode at full speed, not daring to rest for a moment. He kept thinking about who else could help him. After much thought, the only two words that came to his mind were "Shen Ming".

Shen Ming has been the Prime Minister of Donglai for many years. To have reached his level, he must have some unknown power...

This time, he has to do it to save his sister.

Hu Lin kept whipping the horse all the way. The horse was running very fast, rubbing his thighs so hard that it hurt, but he didn't dare to stop for a moment.

If he was a moment slower, she would be in more danger.

Fortunately, he met Shen Ming before he reached the city gate.

Shen Ming was riding a horse at full speed, followed by more than a hundred people. Judging from their attire, they must be assassins from Xingyue Pavilion.

Hu Lin was surprised and delighted that Shen Ming could actually hire so many killers from Xingyue Pavilion at the same time!

He hurriedly pulled the reins and placed his horse across the front of Shen Ming's cavalry.

Shen Ming's brows furrowed, and he reined in his horse urgently: "Hu Lin? Get out of the way!"

Hu Lin hurriedly shouted out the key information: "Leng Feng and the Black Armored Guards are chasing Fu Jiuli. They took the road to the left of the fork in the road. It's only half an hour away."

Shen Ming nodded slightly: "Got it, thank you."

Seeing that Shen Ming already knew, Hu Lin immediately gave way. Shen Ming didn't waste a moment, and the hundred-man cavalry galloped again.

At the same time, the five thousand black-armored guards led by Leng Feng had already caught up with Fu Jiuli's fleeing team.

As soon as the two teams met, a fierce fight broke out.
