Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 316 Empty City Strategy

The secret guards Su Ying sent to Yancheng rushed towards Yancheng non-stop, and finally arrived in Yancheng three days later.

"General, general!" The guard hurried over from outside and reported nervously: "The secret guards around King Jin are here!"

Su Wu put down the memorial in his hand, stood up and said, "Send the person in quickly."

After the secret guard came in, he presented the letter in his hand to Su Wu. Su Wu raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise: "The prince personally went to the mine, so the situation in the border town is extremely critical."

The secret guard recounted everything they encountered along the way, and then said: "Please general, please send someone to follow me to the border town secretly as soon as possible. The princess said that in order to hide your whereabouts, it is best to pass through Wushan, Qian You must not take the official route. Zhou Wei has been stationed in the border town for more than ten years. He is afraid that he has already colluded with the Western Regions. You must not alert the enemy to avoid causing unrest on the border."

General Su read the letter carefully again and had a plan in mind: "You go down and rest for a while, I still have things to make arrangements!"

The secret guard took the order and retreated. Su Wu returned to the case and sat down, tapping his fingers on the table a few times: "Come here, go and invite General Mu Lin over!"

Su Wu was writing something when Mu Lin came in. She looked at Su Wu with a smile: "I heard you were looking for me?"

After many days of getting along, Mu Lin and Su Wu unconsciously lost their previous restraint.

Mu Lin has a generous temperament. She has lived among men since she was a child, and she does not have the shyness of a little girl.

Su Wu, on the other hand, seemed to always keep a distance from her intentionally or unintentionally, but Mu Lin's carefree personality made him a little embarrassed.

After all, no girl was as restrained as him, so he followed Mu Lin's casualness, and the two of them got along more and more harmoniously.

Su Wu put down the pen and ink in his hand and smiled faintly: "Your Majesty and the others found out in the border town that Zhou Wei secretly mined gold mines without telling the court. He may have connections with the Western Regions. I have to take people to the border town in person. The return date is uncertain. , Now that Shen Yu has not woken up, the only person I trust in this city is you, so I will hand over him and Luoluo to you, and I will also hand over the safety of the people in this city to you!"

"Okay!" Mu Lin responded, a little disappointed and said, "It's a pity that someone has to guard this city, otherwise I would also like to go!"

Su Wu smiled slightly: "When Yancheng is calmed down, I will take you to the Western Regions when I have the opportunity. I heard that the customs and customs there are very different from ours."

After all, Mu Lin is a girl. When Su Wu said this, he immediately became interested: "General, you can't break your promise!"

Su Wu nodded solemnly, and then handed her what he had written in his hand: "This is the defense of the city. As soon as I leave, those Northern Liao forces hiding in the dark will definitely be ready to move. Their targets are Amul and Shen Yu. , no matter how chaotic the city is, you just need to guard the city gate and Shen Yu, remember, the more chaotic it is, the more you have to stabilize your mind, do you still remember what Ah Ying said before she left?"

Mu Lin's eyes flashed slightly, and she nodded and said, "The princess said that Amul will definitely come to find Shen Yu when he wakes up."

Su Wu smiled and said: "You have always been smart, so you naturally know what to do. With you guarding this city, I can leave with peace of mind."

Mu Lin said confidently: "General, don't worry, when you come back, I will take Shen Yu and the others to the city gate to greet you!"

That night, Su Wu led his troops out of the city, while Qimuge and others who were hiding in the dark watched them heading towards Wushan. The opportunity they had been waiting for for many days finally arrived.

A group of men in black quietly came to the prison where Amul was being held under cover of night. Situ Jin took away all the secret guards in the city. The rest were ordinary soldiers, but Muge's men could survive in a war. Coming down, their strength is naturally much stronger than these ordinary soldiers.

Therefore, they confidently dealt with the people outside the prison and successfully entered the cell.

The guard in the cell was lying on the table and sleeping soundly.

Qimuge ordered someone to step forward and push him a few times. The guard opened his eyes in a daze, and before he could say anything, he felt a chill on his neck, and at the same time, a cold voice came from his ears: "Don't make a sound! Otherwise I’ll kill you!”

The guard was so frightened that he lost his mind. He looked down at the sharp blade across his neck and pursed his lips tightly, not daring to make a sound.

"Where is the Prince of Northern Liao being imprisoned?"

The guard did not dare to say anything, but pointed inside with his hand. Seeing this, the man in black asked again: "Take us there!"

The guard stood up tremblingly, picked up the key on the table and walked into the cell: "Please spare my life, heroes. I just want to make a living. You can take me away. Please don't kill me. I have seniors and juniors. ..”

The people in Qimuge ignored him and continued to ask: "Why are there so few guards in this prison?"

The guard hurriedly replied: "There is only one person in this cell, the Prince of Northern Liao. He has been poisoned by the princess and will not live long. The superiors feel that having too many guards is a waste of manpower."

Qimuge's eyes flashed: "The prince has been poisoned?"

The guard nodded: "It's not fatal, but it happens once a month, and it screams all night long, making us unable to sleep well."

Arriving in front of Amul's cell, the guard took out the key and opened the door. The candlelight in the cell was dim. Amul was woken up by someone. He raised his eyes and looked outside until he saw that the person coming was Qimuge.

He struggled to get up from the ground, with a hint of disbelief in his voice: "Qimuge, are you here to save me?"

Qi Muge stepped forward and helped him up: "Your Highness, this subordinate is incompetent and is too late!"

Amul moved his body with difficulty. Fortunately, he had only received some punishment before, but he was never punished again. But Su Ying didn't know what kind of poison she gave him, and she tortured him every full moon night. Life or death, he must find Su Ying when he gets out, and he must also let that woman taste the poison that penetrates her intestines.

Qimuge winked at the man in black next to him. The man in black understood, and then showed a strange smile with a strange expression under his mask, and said to the guard outside the cell: "Thank you very much!"

The guard seemed to have noticed something. Before the cold blade cut his throat, he suddenly dodged and pushed the person next to him away. Before they could take action again, he ran out quickly.

Because he was too hasty, he accidentally touched the oil lamp that was lit in the cell. The oil lamp hit the hay in the cell. The windows in the cell were already broken. The wind helped the fire, and the fire began to spread almost instantly.

Within a few moments, the fire in the cell quickly began to devour everything in the cell at a terrifying speed.

The guard didn't forget to help another injured guard and ran outside.

Qimuge and others looked at the increasingly crazy fire and ignored the two guards, and immediately escaped from the cell with Amul.

On the tower not far away, Mu Lin looked coldly at the raging fire somewhere in the city, and ordered: "Send a team of people to put out the fire, and the rest follow me!"
