The Queen's Engineering Army

Chapter 54 The Swordsman in White
Nanzheng City, Zheng Mansion.

It is the most luxurious mansion built by Nan Zhengcheng.

Zheng Gan got out of the carriage and walked quickly into the mansion, and quickly summoned the housekeeper to the hall to discuss matters.

"Go ahead and tell the caravan to secretly report all the information about the Yue army to the generals leading troops on the front line of Chu, and stop secret assistance to the Yue army."

Zheng Gan sat on the main seat, with a look of evil spirit on his face.

There was only the old housekeeper in the hall, and he was shocked after hearing this, wondering if he had heard it wrong.

"Master, this old slave heard me right, are you trying to help the Chu army?"

Both Zheng Gan and the housekeeper are from the Yue country, and they have made a lot of money doing business in various countries, so they have secretly funded the Yue army over the years, whether it is food or weapons and armor.

Neither the king of Chu nor the king of Yue knew about these things. Doing business is about keeping a low profile. If you let the king of Chu know that he is funding the mother country, don't even think about doing business in the country of Chu in the future.

So he found a middleman who had nothing to do with him to fund secretly.

The king of Yue was so stupid and ignorant that he killed his sworn brothers Fan Li and Xi Shi, which made Zheng Qian furious.

So regardless of all the consequences, he wanted to defeat the king of Yue.

"I just want the King of Yue to die."

Thinking of King Yue's actions, Zheng Ganqi's fingers trembled, not only Fan Li, but also Xi Shi, the woman he had loved all his life.

Until now, Zheng Qian is still single, has no children, and has only adopted a few adopted sons.

"Here, the old slave will make arrangements as soon as I get down." As a housekeeper, no matter what the master says is right or not, he must follow orders.

"and also."

Zheng Qian's eyes turned cold, and he said in a cold voice: "Send someone to tell General Zhang Wei to lead his troops to surrender to the Chu army. If he is not willing, he will say that he will hand over the evidence of his corruption and embezzlement of military pay for so many years to King Yue." , General Zhang is a smart man, he knows how to choose."

"This...here."

The old housekeeper Zheng An's hairs are standing on end. Zhang Wei is the general of the center of the Yue Kingdom who is fighting here. He commands 5 horses, which is considered the elite army of the Yue Kingdom.

Zhang Wei also knew that the king of Yue was a mean and ungrateful person, if he was forced like this, he would definitely rebel.

If Zhang Wei rebels, Yue will definitely lose.

What's the matter, sir?Vietnam is the mother country.

There are some things that he shouldn't ask, and he doesn't know how to ask, so he is about to withdraw.

A voice came from the roof.

"What a vicious strategy. To use such a despicable method to deal with Yue is disgusting."

After saying that, a dark shadow fell down, holding his hands in front of his chest and holding a scabbard in one hand, staring at Zheng Qian coldly.

It was Jingjia.

Murderous intent loomed, no matter what, he was still a native of Yue, and he was still the commander of the king's guards. He would never allow others to deal with Yue in such a despicable way.

After Jing Jia sneaked into Nanzheng City, he found out that the Zheng family is the richest household in Nanzheng.

Stealing from the rich and giving to the poor is not a bad thing for Jing Jia, anyway, those rich households are getting rich one by one, so taking it is not a problem at all.

Keep some for yourself and give the rest to the poor.

Not only is it not a bad thing, but he feels that he is doing a good thing.

Maybe it was influenced by some knight-errants, but they don't know that rich people's money is hard-earned, so why do you just take it?

After sneaking into the Zheng Mansion, I was trying to find a place to observe secretly and wait until I had time to take action.

But when he was on the roof, he accidentally overheard the conversation between the two, which made him very angry.

If such a despicable and insidious method really succeeds, the country of Yue will surely be defeated.

Whatever they say, they have to come down and stop them. The lives of these two people cannot be spared.

"Someone is coming...ah."

Seeing the uninvited guests, the old housekeeper wanted to shout for someone, but there was a thud and the handle of the sword hit Zheng Quan on the head and knocked him unconscious.

Jing Jia wanted to ask them questions clearly before killing them, so he knocked them unconscious to avoid getting in the way.

His attacks are fast and ruthless, he is definitely a Lianjiazi.

Zheng Qian was not afraid, he sat on the chair with a blank face, and said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

"Meet unjust people on the road." Jing Jia said coldly.

"Haha."

Zheng Qian raised his head and laughed, smiling and waving his hand, "Lying on someone else's roof in the middle of the night, I'm afraid he is not a kind person, but is here to steal. How dare a thief speak so brazenly."

"Hmph, you are so stubborn when you are about to die, why do you want to deal with the Yue Kingdom like this? If you tell me, I can make your death easier." Jing Jia took a step forward, with a murderous look.

"How dare you be so rampant in the old man's mansion, I'm afraid you are the one who is about to die, right?" Zheng Gan smiled without fear.

"court death!"

Jing Jia quickly pulled out the bronze short sword in his hand. This sword is called Yuchang Sword, and it is a sharp weapon made by master Ou Yezi, a famous weapon master.

It is extremely sharp, Jing Jia got it by accident and has always regarded it as a treasure.

The sharp tip of the Fish Intestine Sword gleamed coldly as it stabbed at Zheng Qian.

Zheng Qian's expression remained the same, as if he didn't care at all.

boom.

With the sound of weapons colliding, Jing Jia was blocked by someone with a long sword and quickly retreated. When he stabilized his figure, he saw a middle-aged man in white standing in front of Zheng Qian with a long sword in his hand.

His white clothes are like snow, spotless, his sword-like eyes and eyebrows are shining, and his temperament is cold and arrogant.

"I promise you to shoot three times, this is the first time." The man in white didn't look back, he said this to Zheng Gan.

"I understand, it's time to work." Zheng Qian nodded. The reason why he was not afraid was because of the presence of the man in white.

"White swordsman Gai Tianming?"

Even though he only touched one move, Jing Jia was still shocked, the opponent was definitely a master.

As the guard commander of the King of Yue, Jing Jia is not weak in martial arts, but recently he encountered masters one after another, first he met Guiguzi in Nansha Lake, and he was beaten so weakly that he couldn't fight back.

Although Jing Jia saw this white-clothed man for the first time, with such swordsmanship and wearing white clothes, judging from his clothes, this man should be the white-clothed swordsman Gai Tianming.

"I didn't expect that you would be able to guess my identity after just one trick, and you would see that you are also a member of the Jianghu." Gai Tianming did not deny it, and smiled with a corner of his mouth.

"Everyone knows the best swordsman in the world, Gai Tianming, the swordsman in white. I didn't expect you to become the guard of a wealthy businessman. It's really unexpected." Jing Jia sneered disdainfully.

"It's useless to talk more. As long as I'm here today, you can't even think of touching a hair on Duke Zheng." Gai Tianming stood there, looking at Jing Jia coldly.

"Okay, I will learn the sword skills of the world's number one swordsman today."

Jing Jia's eyes turned cold. Now that he knew, Zheng Qian's plan could not be allowed to succeed no matter what. This was related to the survival of the Yue Kingdom.

And Gai Tianming's reputation as the number one swordsman in the world also aroused Jing Jia's competitive spirit, and he tried a few tricks to see how strong the number one swordsman in the world is.

"Since you want to die, I won't be polite."

Gai Tianming's face turned cold, the sword was unsheathed, and a white shadow flashed, wrestling with Jing Jia.

Only two figures, one black and one white, were seen, fighting hand to hand, and there was a sound of weapons clashing. This was not a sparring match but a fight to the death. Both sides were moving with murderous intent, wanting to kill each other.

On the outskirts of Nanzheng City, there is a small farmyard.

Fan Siyue sat on the wooden bench with her legs stretched out and her heels on the ground, shaking her feet, looking at the moon in the sky boredly.

The moon is very round today.

"Yue'er has washed her feet."

Chen Lu brought a wooden basin over and placed it next to Fan Siyue. The wooden basin was still steaming. You must know that washing feet with hot water was not a simple matter in ancient times.

It takes a long time to chop firewood, boil water, and wash your feet with hot water.

If you are taking a hot bath, it will be more troublesome to use a lot of water. You have to boil several large pots to use it.

"Brother Chen, thank you, I'll do it myself." Fan Siyue waved her hand quickly.

"Let me do it. You can wash it yourself. It won't be clean."

Chen Lu smiled and held up one of Fan Siyue's feet, taking off his pink embroidered shoes.

Fan Siyue was very embarrassed. During this time, Chen Lu had been so kind to her that she didn't know what to say.

But Chen Lu was no longer a complete person, and it was impossible for the two of them to have anything in the future. Fan Siyue didn't know how to face Chen Lu's kindness.
