Chapter 692: The Assassination of the 8th Wise King
Yao Chao returned to Shao's house in despair
When Mrs. Shao saw Yao Chao like this, she immediately realized that something was wrong!
"Yao Chao, you...what's wrong with you!?"
"Is the enemy really that powerful!?"
Mrs. Shao panicked.
If Jiang Chen really had such an elite cavalry, how could they possibly be his opponent!
"The cavalry under Jiang Chen's command is indeed very powerful!"
"But you don't have to worry, ma'am."
"Since Jiang Chen has taken the young lady away, he will not harm her. We can find a way to rescue her later. The most urgent task now is how to gain the greatest benefit in the next battle!"
After hearing what Mrs. Shao said, Yao Chao came back to his senses.
When Mrs. Shao heard what Yao Chao said, she looked worried.
If Shao Shuyi falls into Jiang Chen's hands, it is not certain what kind of treatment she will suffer!
But thinking about the big deal...Mrs. Shao finally endured it.
Because she knew that Jiang Chen had such a team at his disposal, and if they wanted to rescue Shao Shuyi, it would be extremely difficult!
So she had no choice but to develop her strength as quickly as possible!
Only when I become strong enough will I be able to rescue Shao Shuyi from Jiang Chen!
Yao Chao was relieved to see Mrs. Shao calm down.
If Madam Shao insisted on fighting Jiang Chen, then he really didn't know how to persuade her!
At the same time, in the Dongfang family.
Dongfang Wan'er received a letter from Mu Qingqing.
Mu Qingqing told Dongfang Wan'er in the letter that she had left the capital.
In addition, she also told Dongfang Wan'er a piece of news.
That is...she is pregnant.
When Dongfang Wan'er saw the news that Mu Qingqing was pregnant, her heart was instantly filled with shock!
……
Mu Qingqing chose Jiang Chen so firmly!
If she wasn't so determined, how could Mu Qingqing have wanted a child with Jiang Chen!
It seems that she should make a choice too!
However, Dongfang Wan'er is not a vase!
Therefore, she wants to show her strength to Jiang Chen again!
"shadow!"
Dongfang Wan'er spoke lightly.
"Miss!"
As Dongfang Wan'er spoke, a man in black suddenly appeared!
"Go check where Young Master Yang, one of the remnants of the previous dynasty, is hiding. I want his location!"
"Yes!"
As Dongfang Wan'er finished her words, the shadow disappeared instantly!
After the shadow left, Dongfang Wan'er's eyes gradually became resolute!
She...is going to choose Jiang Chen!
Three days later, Jiangnan border.
The Eighth Wise King is about to leave the Jiangnan area.
The team of the Eight Wise Kings is considered to be quite large.
In addition to the Eighth Wise King's carriage, there were more than twenty carriages filled with gifts. Those gifts were brought by the Eighth Wise King to Emperor Dajing.
In addition, the Eighth Wise King also brought five hundred guards!
This scale can be said to be quite large!
But as the carriage left the Jiangnan area, the eyes of the Eighth Wise King in the carriage gradually became cold.
He even had the sword clenched tightly in his hand!
"Kill!"
"kill!"
Suddenly, roars rang out!
When the Eighth Wise King heard these roars, his expression became even more solemn!
"coming!"
The Eighth Wise King had long cooperated with Cai Jing to create the illusion that he was assassinated!
So we were prepared for all of this!
But he just didn't know how Cai Jing would play out the show!
But don't make a mistake!
……
"Kill!"
When the guards of the Eighth Wise King saw someone rushing out from the darkness, they all prepared to fight!
These people are the elite troops under the Eighth Wise King, and they also know that this is just a show!
So, they fought and retreated towards Jiangnan!
But just when these people were about to leave the battlefield, another team rushed out in secret!
There are more than 300 people in this team!
They were dressed in civilian clothes and had their faces covered with black cloth!
As soon as these people appeared, they displayed a completely different aura!
They held spears in their hands and carried crossbows on their backs, dressed exactly like soldiers!
"Oh no! Something's happening!"
"Retreat quickly!"
When the guards under the Eighth Wise King saw this scene, they all panicked!
Their prince only said there was one group of enemies, but didn't say there were other enemies!
What's happening here! ?
But just when everyone was about to retreat, that cavalry unit launched a charge!
"kill!"
"Kill them!"
The cavalrymen rode their horses and charged continuously!
The Eighth Wise King's men were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses from those cavalry!
"Don't fight! Retreat! Retreat!"
When the Eighth Wise King saw that the situation was not good, he rushed out, mounted his horse and ran away!
Everyone kept fighting for a while!
With great difficulty, the Eighth Wise King escaped from the encirclement!
"Damn it!"
"Where did this bastard come from? How dare he attack this king!?"
"Are they looking for death!?"
The Eighth Wise King roared angrily!
He is really angry!
How could something unexpected happen to something that was planned?!
If he had not been prepared, he would have been in great danger this time!
The Eighth Wise King fled for a long way before he dared to stop.
Seeing that there were no pursuers behind him, the Eighth Wise King finally breathed a sigh of relief!
……
"Damn it! A bunch of bastards! How dare you chase me!?"
“They really don’t want to live anymore!”
The Eighth Wise King was extremely angry!
He didn't know who was attacking him!
But he felt that it must not be Emperor Dajing!
After all, Emperor Dajing is still waiting for him to enter the capital so that he can deal with him!
As for those who don't want him to enter the capital and want to see Dajing in turmoil, they are probably either the remnants of the previous dynasty or the Holy Mother Church.
But those people just now were well-equipped, which is not what the Holy Mother Church and the remnants of the previous dynasty could have?
Could it be that the remnants of the previous dynasty are so powerful?
"My Lord, what should we do now?"
The general beside the Eighth Wise King asked the Eighth Wise King.
"Go back home and spread the news about the battle just now!"
"Remember, you must tell everyone that I was shot by an arrow and was seriously injured!"
"Yes!"
The general accepted the order respectfully.
After the Eighth Wise King arranged all this, his expression became even more solemn!
He will probably go to war with the Dajing court next.
Now he is not strong enough, this battle... he will most likely suffer a loss!
But in order to avoid being easily killed by Emperor Dajing, he had no choice but to give it a try!
On the other side, in a military camp outside Jinling City.
General Feng is drinking tea.
Suddenly, his deputy general ran in!
"General! It's done!"
"The Eighth Sage King has returned to Jiangnan."
"However, before we took action, another team had already taken action and attacked the Eighth Wise King!" the deputy general told the whole story.
But when General Feng heard these words, he laughed.
"Haha, it seems that I was too sentimental. The Eighth Wise King has already arranged people to stop him from going to the capital!"
