The Return of the Demon

Chapter 386: Advance or Retreat Means Death

"Elder brother, I wonder if you can bear it? Anyway, I can't bear it. I dare to provoke our Ghost Shadow Sect. If I don't... Hey, where are the people?"

Ning Chen's face was filled with resentment and righteous indignation. He was talking vigorously when he looked up and found that Xie Siyu was missing.

He looked at Gu Yichun, "Where are the people?"

Gu Yichun pointed to the forest not far away.

Ning Chen turned around and saw only Xie Siyu's back.

"Junior brother, don't worry, Dark Moon Tower will never want to gain a foothold in the world in the future!"

After saying that, Xie Siyu walked into the forest and disappeared.

Ning Chen raised his lips slightly, turned around and got into the car.

"Set off!"

Ning Chen rested his head on Yu Die's legs and said lazily.

Yudie gently helped Ning Chen press his temples.

Ning Chen directly put his leg on Zi Su's leg.

Zisu glared at her and gently beat his legs for him.

Ning Chen squinted his eyes comfortably.

Zisu smiled brightly, "Shall I give you a few injections?"

Ning Chen: "???"

Zi Su said: "It can activate qi and blood and relieve fatigue."

"Does it hurt?"

Zi Su shook her head.

Ning Chen became interested, "Come on then."

Zi Su opened the medicine box and took out the silver needle.

"ah..."

Suddenly, a scream came from the carriage, which frightened Feng Qizheng so much that the chicken bones in his mouth fell out.

"Ning Chen, are you okay?"

"fine!"

In the carriage, Ning Chen looked at Zi Su with a grin on his face, "Didn't you say it doesn't hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt, it's not me who got stabbed."

Ning Chen: "..."

"Okay, okay, this is how you play, right? It depends on whether I prick you tonight or not."

.......

Five days later, Ning Chen was about to arrive in Xiuzhou.

Along the way, he suffered a total of three assassinations... no, four times.

But from beginning to end, Ning Chen never made a move because he had no chance.

Every time he encounters danger, those wearing Ghostface masks appear.

The person who assassinated him for the fourth time was killed before he could take action... It was probably also done by those wearing Ghostface masks.

Ning Chen asked, but these people never answered.

After they kill people and the danger is over, they will leave quickly.

Ning Chen was extremely curious, who are these people?

He guessed it was sent by Shen Shen, but there was no evidence.

I'll find out when I get back to Beijing and ask.

Ning Chen didn't take the assassination seriously, it was expected.

Emperor Xuan, who was far away in the capital, was not in a good mood!

Because Wu Guo terminated the peace talks.

Above the court, Emperor Xuan looked at the civil and military officials with a cold face and said coldly:

"Wu Guo sent people to send news that the peace talks were terminated."

The ministers were suddenly in an uproar!

Why did you suddenly go back on your promise to make peace?

Could it be because of Ning Chen?

"My dear friends, what do you think we should do?"

Emperor Xuan asked with a cold face.

The ministers were silent.

Emperor Xuan's face became increasingly ugly, and he said sternly:

"Speak, aren't you usually pretty good at speaking? Why are you mute now?"

"The southern border has suffered repeated defeats, and the Xiliang Kingdom in the western border is ready to move... Wu Kingdom has now terminated the peace talks, what do you think we should do?"

There was dead silence in the court hall.

"say."

Emperor Xuan couldn't help roaring.

Li Zhixing came out of the queue and said: "Your Majesty, I feel that Master Fan is unforgivable in this matter."

Fan Taihe's face darkened and he couldn't help but said: "What does this have to do with me?"

"If it weren't for your mad dog biting and causing Ning Chen to be demoted to a commoner, how could this happen?"

Fan Taihe was furious: "It was Ning Chen who broke the law himself. As an imperial censor, is it wrong to impeach him?"

Li Zhixing said sternly: "If we negotiate with Wu Guo, we can mobilize the border troops to support the southern border... It's better now. The great situation is ruined because of your stupidity. You are unforgivable."

Fan Taihe sneered, "The reason for repeated defeats in the southern border is because Ning Chen sold the military defense map of the southern border to South Vietnam."

Shen Min stepped out of the queue and said angrily: "You are talking nonsense... saying that Ning Chen colluded with South Vietnam. Do you have any evidence?"

"Those secret letters are evidence."

"It's a joke, can this be considered evidence? It's not difficult to forge handwriting... Also, His Majesty is asking about the peace talks with the Kingdom of Wu. You should stop talking about him here."

Fan Taihe said disdainfully: "What Mr. Li and Mr. Shen said is really ridiculous... The Wu Kingdom, a barbarian country, is capricious and terminated the peace talks. Is it because Ning Chen was demoted?"

Li Zhixing said in a deep voice: "Isn't it?"

Fan Taihe smiled sinisterly, "Wu Guo gave up the interests of a country for one person... Could it be that Ning Chen has some ulterior relationship with Wu Guo?"

Li Zhixing was furious: "Don't you stop talking nonsense here... The reason why Wu State is willing to negotiate for peace is that it is afraid of Ning Chen, who is good at military strategy, and afraid of the sharpness of my Daxuan generals."

"Now that Ning Chen has been demoted to a commoner, who can still suppress Wu Guo?"

Fan Taihe's face was full of disdain, "My Daxuan is full of talents, and there are many capable people...I don't believe it. Without Ning Chen, will the sky of Daxuan collapse?"

Li Hanru stepped out of the queue and said: "Well said! Daxuan is full of talents...not Ning Chen, but also Master Fan."

Li Hanru bowed to Emperor Xuan and said, "Your Majesty, I propose that Lord Fan be sent as an envoy to the Kingdom of Wu... I believe that with Lord Fan's sharp tongue, peace talks can be rekindled."

"It is also good for the people of Daxuan to know that Daxuan has lost Ning Chen and has talents like Master Fan."

Fan Taihe's face turned dark and he cursed Li Hanru, an old cunt.

He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty..."

The Emperor Xuan did not give him a chance to speak, and said first: "Lord Li's proposal is worth considering."

Shen Min hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I also agree that Lord Fan should go to Wu State to promote peace talks."

Li Zhixing said: "I second the proposal!"

Ji Mingchen stepped out, "I also second the proposal!"

The Emperor Xuan nodded slightly, "Since the ministers strongly recommend Lord Fan to go to Wu State, let's do it!"

Fan Taihe was dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty..."

The Emperor Xuan waved his hand and said: "Lord Fan, don't be modest. The ministers believe in your ability, and I believe it too."

"Fan Taihe listens to your order!"

Fan Taihe fell to his knees.

Emperor Xuan said: "Lord Fan is a pillar of my great Xuan. I promise you to go to Wu State on my behalf in three days to promote peace talks."

"Lord Fan, peace talks will benefit the country and the people... I believe in you, please don't let me down."

Fan Taihe's face was pale, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he said tremblingly: "Your Majesty..."

"Lord Fan, please get ready early... Don't let me down, otherwise I will only ask you."

After that, he waved his hand and said: "I am a little tired, the court is dismissed!"

After saying that, Emperor Xuan got up and left directly.

"Farewell, Your Majesty!"

After the ministers saluted, they stood up and looked at Fan Taihe, with different expressions... some sympathized, some ridiculed, and more gloated.

Fan Taihe collapsed on the ground like mud, his eyes were dull, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He knew the secret that others didn't know, which was the matter between Ning Chen and the Empress of Wu State.

Because of this incident, Li Hongzhuo was not only executed by his entire family, but also carried a bad reputation.

If he went to Wu State, wouldn't he be dead?

But if he didn't go, it would be disobeying the order and he would also die.

Fan Taihe raised his head and looked at Li Zhixing and others fiercely... He only realized at this moment that he was being plotted.

But it was too late.

He had to find that person to discuss it quickly.

He was driven to a dead end. Going to Wu State would mean death, and not going to Wu State would also mean death.

Shen Min smiled and said, "Congratulations, Lord Fan. If peace talks can be facilitated, it will be a great achievement. I, Shen, would like to congratulate Lord Fan first."

Ji Mingchen said sarcastically, "I believe that with Lord Fan's eloquence, peace talks can be easily facilitated... I really envy Lord Fan, he is going to make another achievement."

"Congratulations, Lord Fan, congratulations, Lord Fan!"

"Lord Fan, congratulations, congratulations!"

Fan Taihe's face was flushed, and a mouthful of old blood rushed up his throat, and he almost couldn't help but spit it out.

Killing people and hurting their hearts!

But he couldn't care about Shen Min and others' gloating now, he got up and staggered outside... He had to find that person to discuss countermeasures quickly.

Shen Min and others looked at Fan Taihe's embarrassed appearance and smiled at each other.

Ning Chen had found them before leaving the capital.

This strategy was also decided by Ning Chen.

However, this move was indeed cruel enough, and Fan Taihe was now in a dilemma.

In fact, they were all wrong, thinking that Ning Chen was just trying to take revenge on Fan Taihe... Little did they know that Ning Chen's real purpose was to alert the enemy.

When people are extremely scared or angry, their IQs are comparable to those of pigs.

Fan Taihe is now in danger of death, and in panic, he will definitely go to the person behind the scenes to discuss countermeasures.

And Silent will have the opportunity to follow the clues and find out the hidden mastermind.
