Chapter 382 Family and Family!

Chapter 383

After all, they have fought together, and experienced life and death. So before that incident happened, both Bai Siling and Xu Qian had great trust in Huang Yongtu.

Originally thought that the four of them were already a trustworthy and inseparable group. So when that happened, the anger and disappointment in everyone's hearts can be imagined.

"It's really disappointing. It's in vain that we tried our best to save him."

Bai Siling said.

"People's hearts are different, just like fingers. There is no way for the Huang family to seek refuge with King Qi."

Xu Qian said.

Compared to Bai Siling, he is much more open-minded. Born in a wealthy family, and at the level of the capital, this kind of collusion of interests, political games, this kind of situation is nothing more than normal.

In his opinion, what Huang Yongtu did was understandable, but unlike Huang Yongtu, he bet on Wang Chong.

This time Wang Chong escaped the assassination and survived safely, which also proved his foresight.

The Wang family in the capital is absolutely worthy of his support.

"Just one thing, I haven't figured it out yet. How do you know that it was Huang Yongtu who leaked the news, and not the rest of us?"

Bai Siling said.

After returning from the place where he was attacked, Bai Siling had been thinking about a problem. Among the four people, who is the one who leaked the news about Wang Chong?

But after thinking about it, she felt that the ghost could not be any of them. She didn't want to doubt anyone.

Bai Siling even thought about whether it might be a mistake. In fact, it has nothing to do with the four of them at all, it is just a coincidence, or the problem lies in other places.

But when Wang Chong appeared on the west tower, the last hope in Bai Siling's heart was also shattered.

Now, Bai Siling just wants to know, where did Wang Chong read it, and was sure that Huang Yongtu was a traitor?

"This question is actually not very difficult to guess."

Wang Chong took a sip of the tea in his hand,

Eyes wise, seem to see the details:

"I participated in the mission of the training camp. In fact, people may not know about it. But King Qi and the people of the Yao family must have a way to know, and they must have known."

"This time I'm going out of the capital. This is their best chance, so no matter what, they will never let it go. However, as soon as we leave the capital, we will be protected by cavalry. Eighty iron cavalry, even if we come Experts can also be easily dealt with."

"So when they return from Longxi, that's their last chance to attack. And if they want to attack, they must have an internal response, and the internal response can only come from among the four of us."

Wang Chong was also full of embarrassment when he said this:

"Frankly speaking, I don't want Huang Yongtu to be the ghost. I even thought that maybe I was wrong. King Qi and the others would never attack me. But it turned out that I was wrong."

"Do you still remember what I told you when I came back from the Captain of the Great Fighting Army?"

Wang Chong said.

"Remember, you said you were leaving."

Xu Qian opened his mouth and said.

"Um."

Wang Chong nodded, his eyes suddenly became extremely cold:

"That was my intention. At that time, you hadn't received the order from the court, and you absolutely couldn't leave. So at that time, I told myself, if any of you said that you would follow me at this time, you would be the ghost! Because if he wants to If you deal with me, this is your last chance!"

Hearing Wang Chong's words, Bai Siling and Xu Qian glanced at each other, both of them were startled. It never occurred to them that Wang Chong had such a heavy heart when he said those words.

"But what if we want to follow you? After all, we came together, isn't that too absolute for you?"

Bai Siling said.

Wang Chong's reason may sound reasonable to others, but it is not at all to Bai Siling.

"Hehe, if that's the case, it's just suspicious. But remember that white pigeon?"

Wang Chong sneered, his eyes were extremely deep.

Huang Yongtu wanted to plot against him, but he thought too easily.

"What's wrong with that white pigeon?"

Xu Qian frowned and said, he really couldn't see what this matter had to do with Baige.

"I see. Do you think its timing is too coincidental? Suspicious?"

Bai Siling said thoughtfully. Thinking back carefully, she did have doubts at the time, but she didn't think too deeply at all.

"You're thinking wrong. It's not the timing, but the content. Siling, do you still remember the content of that letter?"

Wang Chong shook his head and said.

Bai Siling frowned sideways, thoughtful.

"At that time Zhang Ju said"

"Zhang Ju said that the news from the Ministry of War requires us to return to the capital after the completion of the third phase of the mission!"

This sentence was said by Xu Qian. He remembered this sentence very clearly.

"Yes."

Wang Chong nodded:

"The imperial court said that we should return to the capital to be annihilated after the completion of the third phase of the mission. In other words, the Ministry of War does not know whether we have completed the mission."

"The imperial court never issues new orders without being able to confirm whether we have completed the task. Xu Qian, do you still remember when we received our first order?"

Wang Chong asked.

"At the first enlistment point, everyone was assigned twenty cavalrymen and received it."

Xu Qian said without hesitation.

"That's right! The imperial court confirmed that we had reached the first collection point, and then sent the carrier pigeon. This kind of carrier pigeon would never say that it was sent to the first collection point before we arrived. Although not I know how the Ministry of War does it, but there is no doubt that the Ministry of War has a set of measurement methods. The easiest way is to estimate the time."

"It is estimated that we have almost reached the first collection point, and then we will receive the pigeons."

Wang Chong said calmly.

"Si Ling, do you still remember when you received the second carrier pigeon?"

"At the foot of the Bandit Suppression Cave, the imperial court asked us to exterminate the Iron Clothes Horse Bandit and Li Tieyi, but we had already fought against them at that time."

Bai Siling said.

In this place, Wang Chong's statement is untenable.

"In spite of this, we have indeed completed the first phase of the task, right? If we haven't completed it, we will basically not be able to complete it at that time, right? Because the bandits and horse bandits behind are getting stronger and stronger."

Wang Chong said.

Both Bai Siling and Xu Qian nodded their heads, after careful consideration it was true. If it is to be completed, it should be completed by then. If you can't finish it, you won't be able to finish it no matter what.

"Also, do you still remember where the iron-clothed horse thief's lair is?"

Wang Chong said.

"in a hundred miles"

Bai Siling suddenly stopped talking, and looked up at Wang Chong, as if she understood something.

"That's right!"

Wang Chong put down his teacup and confirmed Bai Siling's guess:

"At that time, Li Tieyi was attacked by a surprise army, and the entire iron-clothed horse thief suddenly mobilized, ran for nearly a hundred miles, and took the initiative to attack us. In other words, the movement of the iron-clothed horse thief at that time was unexpected even by the court. .That's why this error occurs."

"Then when did we receive the pigeons for the third stage?"

"In the treasury lair of the Iron Horse Thief."

Bai Siling answered quickly this time.

"That's right! Don't you understand through the first, second, and third pigeons? Basically, the imperial court will send us pigeons only when the mission of one stage has been completed and the mission of the other stage has not yet begun." , to issue tasks. And will never send us an order for the third phase under the circumstances that it is impossible to determine whether our third phase of the task has been completed."

"I was almost sure at the time that this letter definitely did not come from the Ministry of War."

Wang Chong said.

"What?!"

Hearing these words, both Xu Qian and Bai Siling couldn't sit still.

"Wang Chong, what do you mean the last order we received from the Ministry of War was fake?"

Bai Siling was shocked.

It is a felony to violate the letter of the Ministry of War without authorization!

"Hehe, I didn't say that. It's impossible for Zhang Ju not to know the letter from the Ministry of War. There is only one thing I can be sure of, that is, the last letter is definitely not from the same place as the order we received before."

"If I didn't guess, that letter was prepared by King Qi early in the morning. Because I don't know what our third-stage mission is, so I didn't write the content at all. At the same time, I don't know when Huang Yongtu will need it, so the content of the order Very vaguely written."

"This letter can make Huang Yongtu escape from the mission at any time and stay by my side without arousing suspicion. King Qi is really scheming!"

Wang Chong said calmly.

Bai Siling and Xu Qian were speechless for a long time. Although they were right next to Wang Chong, if Wang Chong hadn't told them about many things, they wouldn't have been able to see them at all.

"However, since you have already suspected Huang Yongtu, why didn't you get away early and take him with you?"

Bai Siling suddenly spoke.

"Because Huang Yongtu has never escaped!"

Wang Chong sighed.

Bai Siling was startled for a moment, but then came to her senses. Huang Yongtu was only an internal response. When the news got through, he should evacuate in advance before taking action.

Because the assassins and killers King Qi was looking for obviously wouldn't know him.

But Huang Yongtu never left.

"Next, are you going to deal with him?"

Bai Siling said.

"Then let's see how the Huang family responds!"

Wang Chong said calmly.

The answer from the Huang family in the capital was much faster than Wang Chong imagined. Almost on the same night that Wang Chong went to the West Building, the Patriarch of the Huang family appeared in the Wang family in person with a solemn face.

"Young master, this matter is our Huang family's fault. I will give you and the Wang family an explanation for this matter no matter what. But please believe me, our Huang family really doesn't know about this matter. It's entirely up to that bastard. Make up your own mind."

As soon as the head of the Huang family appeared at the Wang family, he knelt down at Wang Chong's feet.

The head of the Huang family is middle-aged, already in his fifties, with a heroic temperament, and his cultivation has far surpassed the Xuanwu realm.

But in front of Wang Chong, the head of the Huang family, who was seven feet high and did not bend his knees easily, also lowered his head, and knelt down in front of this young man who was much younger than him.

This has nothing to do with age or cultivation level, but the friction between two aristocratic families in the capital. Aristocratic families have their own solutions.

Here, Wang Chong represents the Wang family, one of the top and most prominent families in the entire Tang Empire.

Even the head of the Huang family could only bow his head in front of the family represented behind Wang Chong. What's more, what the Huang family did this time is by no means a trivial matter.

This is related to the continuation of the entire Huang family.

"Our Huang family in the capital has absolutely no intention of becoming an enemy of the Wang family, let alone getting involved in the grievances between the Wang family and the Yao family. On this point, please trust us no matter what."
