Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

The news that Qin Ming hung the head of Lingji Si on the city wall quickly spread to all directions.

The first person to receive the news was Yan Zheng.

At this moment, he was in the military camp thinking about how to show his loyalty to the court in order to cover up the matter of King Taiping.

It would be best if I could go there myself and rescue King Taiping, or just kill him directly.

But at this moment, a piece of news suddenly came.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Astronomical Office under Prince Taiping has already dispatched personnel to infiltrate Yan Ziqiong's capital."

"But in the end he was... killed."

"Killed? Who died?"

Yan Zheng's pupils trembled violently. Someone from the Imperial Astronomical Bureau had died. This was a big deal.

Wouldn’t those three chiefs be furious and take mad revenge on Qin Ming?

This matter will definitely involve the top officials of the imperial court, and may even expose all the hidden forces in their hands!

"It seems to be Lingji Sishou."

"Chief...?"

Yan Zheng was so shocked that he stood up and confirmed:

"Are you talking about the Lingji Chief, one of the three chiefs, who died?"

"Yes, the corpses are now hanging on the city walls!"

With a thud, Yan Zheng sat directly on the chair and did not respond for a long time.

Things are getting more and more serious.

Unexpectedly, even the Imperial Astronomical Bureau failed to bring Prince Taiping back.

Do I have this ability?

Let alone rescuing him, Yan Zheng felt that even if he wanted to use the worst possible strategy, it would be difficult to kill the other party directly.

"Inform the three armies: Do not slow down your offensive for the next few days. Do not provoke them. Wait and see what the Imperial Astronomical Department will do next."

Yan Zheng observed Qin Ming's actions and felt that he was going to clash with the Imperial Astronomical Bureau.

The best way at this time is to keep your troops in place, observe the situation and wait for the two tigers to fight each other.

He has lost too much. Although he has escaped the influence of the Tiger Roar Guard, he is still walking on a tightrope. He cannot make any mistakes in every step from now on.

Otherwise, there is a high possibility of falling into an irretrievable situation.

Can't afford to lose.

Even Qin Ming didn't expect it.

Just killing the head of Lingji was enough to scare Yan Zheng so much that he dared not move.

This was an unexpected surprise.

After staying in the capital for a few more days, Qin Ming continued to arrange for the huge iron-clad ships in the rear to depart from the coastal ports on the east and west sides, and travel back and forth between Daqian and Yan Dynasty.

They also sent a batch of tanks and weapons and equipment.

These supplies were naturally distributed to various troops including Liu Chuang, Ye Shoujiang, etc.

Through their efforts, the space within Yan Dynasty has been compressed to the extreme.

The armies on the east and west sides advanced thousands of miles.

It was almost reaching the heart of the imperial court.

The Wu family and the Yun family gained countless benefits during this period.

He expanded his territory by more than half out of thin air.

Such huge benefits also strengthened their determination to help Qin Ming.

As for Qin Ming, after an intensive siege operation, he has completely taken control of more than a dozen cities in Yan Zheng's territory, including his capital.

This also attracted many of the surrounding nobles who were like fence-sitters to surrender.

In addition, Qin Ming has fully utilized the shipping function of Tongtian River. Now they can connect the ports on the east and west sides, and handle huge amounts of cargo every day!

"Is that Qin Ming?"

On this day, outside Yan Ziqiong's residence, two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, sat on the street, quietly looking at the princess's mansion in front of them.

Hearing the man's words, the woman said solemnly:

"I didn't expect that someone this young could force Yan Chao into a desperate situation at this age. This person must not be allowed to stay."

Qin Ming is not very old, but he is already able to stir up the world.

If he were given a few more years of chance, I'm afraid the entire Yan Dynasty would not be able to withstand it.

The two people who came were the other two heads of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau.

Men are Xuanxiao and women are Tianshu.

"That's what I mean. This person's actions have already brought shame upon the imperial court. He must not be allowed to stay."

Xuan Xiao spoke coldly, with a hint of murderous intent on his face.

No one expected that the two heads of the Tianjiansi would enter the capital so openly.

He even stood in front of Yan Ziqiong's princess mansion and launched his plan.

"According to the investigation, he would come out once every day after lunch at noon."

Tianshu lowered his head and spoke coldly.

Xuan Xiao looked up at the sky and saw that the sun was already shining brightly.

"Then the time will come soon?"

"Yes."

"Are you going to kill him first and then save the prince?"

"If either Qin Ming or that mysterious expert dies, you and I can rescue the prince without any problems."

There was a lot of commotion in the past two days.

The Imperial Astronomical Department naturally knew that a mysterious master had appeared beside Qin Ming.

If you want to kill him, that mysterious master is a hurdle you cannot avoid.

"Out."

Soon, as the door of the princess's mansion opened, Qin Ming slowly walked out.

These past few days he had been going out of the city on time to handle matters in the military camp.

"Let's do it."

Tianshu spoke slowly, and a thin sword slipped out of his sleeve.

Xuan Xiao took out a pair of brass knuckles, grinned and walked slowly forward.

"who are you!?"

When the officers and soldiers who were on tight defense in the distance saw the two men making unusual movements, they immediately rushed up.

But the next moment, with a bang, a huge force suddenly flipped it several feet away.

The soldier fell heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and died.

"There are assassins!!"

The shrill sound broke the tranquility of the princess's mansion.

With a loud noise, countless officers and soldiers who had been lying in ambush immediately rushed out from the surroundings.

Xuan Xiao and the other man stood in the distance coldly, with sarcastic expressions on their faces.

"Assassin? It's just killing someone, is there any need to be so timid?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed forward.

He was a master of close combat, extremely tall, with strong muscles defined beneath his loose clothes.

His moves were powerful and every time he threw a punch, the immense force could kill someone directly.

Tianshu is an extremely powerful warrior who uses a fast sword.

As he walked through the crowd with a sword in hand, blood splattered everywhere, and everyone was terrified wherever he passed!

This is the strength of the two heads of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau.

In the era of cold weapons, this kind of combat power is simply the appearance of a god!

He rushed to Qin Ming in one breath.

"Good martial arts."

Qin Ming nodded slowly, his face showing no fear but a hint of smile.

"We have already dealt with all the mines, traps, snipers, and other deployments you have made around us."

"Can you still laugh now?"

Tianshu smoothed up her black hair and spoke condescendingly.

Judging from her appearance, this woman must have been quite pretty when she was young, and she still looks charming at this age.

Qin Ming was not surprised that they could find out his deployment.

He glanced at the equipment on the other party and said:

"You don't seem to have as many weapons as Lingji Si Shou."

Hearing this, Xuan Xiao said disdainfully:

"That loser, I told him a long time ago that he shouldn't rely on external things, and he really died in your hands in the end. But don't worry, we two are not like him."

As soon as the words fell, the two of them attacked together.

With one circle and one sword, Qin Ming's retreat was blocked!
