I am the master of this world

Chapter 179 The Arrival of Jia Xu
Jiang Xiao was imprisoned in the dungeon, causing an uproar in Pengcheng.

Jiang Xiao is not only the chief history of the palace, but also the confidant of the southeast king, who has won the trust and respect of the southeast king.During the period when the Southeast King was sick, it can be said that he took care of all matters big and small.

Who would have thought that being imprisoned suddenly would shock everyone's jaws.

The person who panicked the most was Sima Haiying.

He thought that his father knew about their conspiracy, so he attacked Jiang Xiao first, fearing that he would be the next one.

Finally, after inquiring, I found out that Jiang Xiao actually hid the Taoist golden elixir without telling his father.

Sima Haiying was so angry that he cursed at Jiang Xiao for being confused, and offered the Taoist Golden Elixir to his father. Wouldn't it be possible to gain more trust?
He didn't even think about rescuing Jiang Xiao, because he knew that Jiang Xiao could not be saved.Even if his father didn't kill him, Sima Haiyun would still take advantage of him.

as predicted.

On the morning of Jiang Xiao's fourth day in prison, he was found hanged in the prison.

When the news reached Sima Yue's ears, Sima Yue didn't ask any more questions, but just sighed.After all, I have followed him for more than 20 years, and I still have feelings.

It doesn't matter whether he hanged himself or someone else did it.

But for Shen Ning, once Jiang Xiao was dealt with, the entire Southeast Palace would have nothing to worry about, and the next step was to kill Sima Yue.

And the way to kill Sima Yue is very simple, and the way is on the Taoist golden elixir.

This is a plan.

Shen Ning mixed the strange poison of Yin and Yang Dao into the Taoist golden elixir. This kind of strange poison is two kinds of poisons. It is not poisonous when taken alone. As long as the two are in contact, they will be extremely poisonous.

Therefore, after the alchemist inspected the Taoist golden elixir, he would not find it poisonous. As long as Sima Yue took the Taoist golden elixir and then fed him another poison, Sima Yue would definitely die.

At that time, the cause of his death can be blamed on the dead Jiang Xiao, saying that the poison he poisoned beforehand could not be found on Shen Ning at all.

However, in the next few days, Sima Yue did not take the Taoist Golden Elixir, it seems that he still has some scruples.

During this time, a major event caught Shen Ning unexpectedly.

Sima Liang, the king of Runan, died!

The news that reached Pengcheng was that he died of a sudden illness, but Shen Ning knew that the cause of death was fake, because he had seen Sima Liang in the imperial capital at that time, and Sima Liang was in good health, and he did not look like someone who would die suddenly.

Besides, Sima Liang is dead, what about Jia Xu?

Shen Ning had a premonition that the death of Sima Liang had something to do with Jia Xu, but it was a pity that Shen Ning had no eyeliner in the Runan area and did not know the inside story.

I originally thought about sending someone to take a look, but after thinking about it carefully, I gave up.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, Jia Xu actually appeared in Pengcheng and visited her.

When she heard that a middle-aged man named "Jia Xu" was outside the door asking for a meeting, Shen Ning hurried out.

When I came outside the door, I saw that it was Jia Xu.

"Why is Mr. Wen He here?" Shen Ning hurriedly cupped his hands and asked in surprise, a little excited in his heart, did he come to take refuge in him?
Jia Xu stroked his beard with a smile and said, "I'm going to visit friends in Qingzhou, and I'm passing through Pengcheng, so I just came to meet you, Young Master."

Shen Ning was a little disappointed, but he also understood that he had a bet with Jia Xu, and with his current status, he still couldn't make Jia Xu wholeheartedly rely on him.

"Sir, please!" Shen Ning stretched out his hand to invite Jia Xu into the house, came to the teahouse, Li Ru stood up.

After introducing the two people to each other, Shen Ning was actually very excited when these two poisonous warriors from the Three Kingdoms met here.If he could really gain Jia Xu's allegiance, with the two of them, Shen Ning would really have nothing to worry about.

The three sat down, drank tea and chatted.

Li Ru and Jia Xu were similar in age and both were top advisers. They didn't chat for long and they started to feel sympathy for each other.

"Young Master, with the help of a talented person like Brother Li, he will surely rise to the top!" Jia Xu praised.

Li Ru smiled and said: "Brother Wenhe, Sima Liang died suddenly, how about coming to Pengcheng? The young master will definitely be a virtuous and virtuous sergeant, and treat you as a guest of honour."

Jia Xu replied: "Brother Li is here, it doesn't hurt if I have one more or one less. And after coming to Pengcheng, I heard that the most trusted staff member of the Southeast King has hanged himself. I believe that the Southeast King's condition worsens, and there is not much time left. When Sima Yue dies, the bet between Mr. Shen and I is half lost."

Li Ru naturally heard about the bet between the two, so he didn't continue to press.Top strategists have their own tempers, and they cannot be forced.

Shen Ning asked curiously: "By the way, Mr. Wen He, why did Sima Liang suddenly die suddenly?"

"It is normal for people to have misfortune and good fortune. It is normal for Sima Liang to collude with foreign thieves. This is also retribution." Jia Xu said casually.

Shen Ning immediately understood that Sima Liang's death was definitely planned by Jia Xu.

Jia Xu's family was invaded by foreigners and died. He hated foreigners, and even more hated traitors who colluded with foreign thieves. Therefore, from the beginning, he joined Sima Liang to kill Sima Liang.Last time in the imperial capital, he gambled with Shen Ning and canceled his plan.

After returning to Sima Liang's fiefdom, he punished Sima Liang.

"Mr. Wen He, will Sima Liang's death implicate you?" Shen Ning asked with concern.

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with me, and I would like to thank you, Young Master, for introducing Miss Xun's family to me."

Shen Ning was stunned and nodded. It seemed that Sima Liang's death was also related to the Xun family. It seemed that Jia Xu borrowed the Xun family's hand.

As expected of Jia Xu, who cherished his life, he stayed out of the incident and killed Sima Liang.

"Then Sir, after visiting friends in Qingzhou, will you return to Runan?" Shen Ning asked.

Jia Xu shook his head and said: "I won't go back. After Sima Liang died, his sons began to fight for power, and the place has become a whirlpool. After visiting friends in Qingzhou this time, I may go to the imperial capital. Then I can I saw Mr. Shen."

Shen Ning immediately smiled. After he settled Xuzhou, he would let Zhang Liao and the others continue to recruit troops, while Shen Ning went to the imperial capital.

He is now a sixth-grade knight. If he stays in Xuzhou, he will never be promoted, so he has to go to the imperial capital!

What's more, his family members are all in the imperial capital, and his enemies are also in the imperial capital. Shen Ning has no reason not to go to the imperial capital.

"Okay, then the next time we meet will be the imperial capital!" Shen Ning replied.

Next, Jia Xu had lunch and was ready to leave without any intention of staying.

Shen Ning sent him out of the city and ten miles away.

Jia Xu persuaded: "My lord, go back."

Shen Ning smiled and said, "I'll see you off again, sir."

Jia Xu caressed his beard and said with a smile: "It's a long way to go to Qingzhou. You can't send me all the time. I've accepted your wish. Please go back."

"Okay! Mr. Pay attention to safety this trip, the mountains are high and the waters are long, see you someday." Shen Ning bid farewell with his hands in his hands.

Jia Xu nodded and bowed his hands.

The two bid farewell to each other.

When Shen Ning left, Jia Xu lifted the curtain of the car, looked at Shen Ning's leaving back, and said with a smile: "The Shen family is full of loyalty, and there is only one seedling left. It is really God's blessing! When the Xianbei invaded, if General Shen survived, Maybe my family won’t die.”

"Master Shen, I will wait for you to win the bet."
