Only after all the assassins had left and the Jincheng soldiers had reached the edge of the woods did Qin Shu take the invisibility talismans on the two of them back into the space.

Fu Ying took her and jumped down from another tree not far away.

Zhu Zhi, Mo Laowu and the others ran over first. Seeing that Qin Shu was safe and sound, they clasped their fists and bowed to Qin Shu with shame on their faces and said, "It's all because of our incompetence that we failed to protect the head of the family..."

Seeing this, Qin Shu quickly raised her hand and gave him a light support. "This is not the place to talk. If you have anything to say, let's talk after we leave here."

Mo Laowu immediately understood Qin Shu's intention and lowered his head to make way.

There were more than a thousand soldiers from Jincheng Prefecture.

Seeing that Qin Shu and Fu Ying were both there, Ying Yi stepped forward, bowed and said, "Since Master Xiao Fu and Miss Qin are here, let's leave here as soon as possible."

Once the Ningzhou troops arrive, I'm afraid something unexpected will happen.

Fu Rong was injured and rode in a carriage with Qin Shu.

The Jincheng soldiers quickly surrounded the carriage and returned along the original route.

As soon as one group of troops left, more than 10,000 Ningzhou soldiers came over in a mighty force.

It was clearly stated that there were 10,000 soldiers, but looking at the huge number of heads, it seemed that there were more than 20,000.

The leading general walked down the mountain and raised his hand slightly, and the whole team stopped.

The Qishan Mountain in front of us is towering and lush, with strange rocks standing among the trees.

On the path between the strange rocks, Zuo Yuhou, the commander of the Yizhou army, was lazily walking down with five thousand soldiers.

After a night of searching in the open air on the mountain, every soldier looked exhausted and relaxed.

The Ningzhou soldier commander looked at the Yizhou soldiers with a half-smile, watching them gradually gather at the edge of the woods.

The commander of the government troops rode forward, and the two armies met in the woods.

Zuo Yuhou of Yizhou walked towards the Ningzhou soldiers while smiling and bowing.

When he was about to reach the general, the general's slightly raised hand suddenly dropped down fiercely, "Shoot!"

The arrow was like a meteor, and with a puff it hit Zuo Yuhou's chest.

The smile on Zuo Yuhou's face had not even disappeared when he fell on his back.

When the Yizhou soldiers behind saw this, they immediately panicked and quickly fled to the mountains.

But when they looked back, the men in black swooping down from the mountain made them even more frightened.

The black-clad man at the head was none other than the leader of the Suzaku Sect who had been shot through the palm by Qin Shu.

It was a brutal, one-sided massacre.

Deal with the unintentional with the intentional.

A martial arts master versus ordinary palace soldiers.

Soon, no Yizhou soldiers were left alive.

The entire north slope was littered with corpses and blood, like a hellish battlefield.

The Ningzhou army commander lazily ordered: "Bannermen, report to the court immediately, eight hundred miles away: Fu Rong, the head of the Fu family, has teamed up with Qin Shu, the governor of Jin, and his private soldiers to falsely report the banditry and lure the Yizhou and Ningzhou soldiers to come and suppress the bandits."

"The rebels set up an ambush in Mount Qishan and killed all 5,000 soldiers from Yizhou. They have gathered their own soldiers and sneaked into the capital to assassinate the emperor and rebel. I am afraid that there are Fu and Qin's followers in the capital who are harmful to Your Majesty. I beg Your Majesty to identify their followers and send troops to suppress the rebellion as soon as possible!"

The soldier behind him immediately bowed in response, spurred his horse hard, and galloped towards the capital at lightning speed.

The Ningzhou garrison commander lightly lifted the reins and ordered, "Pass the order, garrison soldiers, follow me and chase down the rebels."

Between Ningzhou and the capital city, there is the natural barrier of Luoyan Lake and Qishan.

Now that there has been a flash flood in the canyon on the southern slope of Mount Qishan, the only way to get across is by boat from Luoyan Lake.

When you arrive in Yizhou, you will reach Pingcheng.

Less than a hundred miles south of Pingcheng is the Nan Daying Camp that guards the capital.

The deputy commander of Yizhou and the commander of the Pingcheng military force are both Prince Ning's men.

The 5,000 Yizhou soldiers who died in Mount Qishan were close confidants of the Yizhou commander.

The total number of soldiers from the three prefectures and the garrison troops was as high as 80,000 to 90,000.

And there are only less than 30,000 people in the Nan Daying.

As long as the Southern Camp is captured, the Ningzhou Bannermen will bring the news of the Fu family's rebellion to the capital, and there will be chaos in the court.

If Prince Ning can take advantage of this opportunity to control the emperor, then there is no need to worry about not being able to accomplish great things.

To take a step back, even if the plan fails, the head of the Fu family and the daughter of the Qin family will definitely not be tolerated by Your Majesty.

As long as the two of them enter Beijing, they will be prey in the net.

If they don't go to Beijing, they will be charged with treason.

This time, no matter how clever they are, they will not be able to escape death in the end!

On the other side, Qin Shu and Fu Ying took a carriage to a small town at the foot of Mount Qishan.

Fu Ying's guards all came over, as well as Qin Shu's guards and a thousand Jincheng soldiers. The huge crowd of more than a thousand people still made the people in the town panic for a while.

Zhu Zhi went out to book an inn. Qin Shu washed up, changed her clothes, and went to Fu Ying's room.

After a knock on the door, Fu Ying's door opened and a tall man walked out.

Although the man looked ordinary, he had an extremely fierce aura. He was the leader of the black-clad men who followed Fu Ying in the forest.

He bowed respectfully to Qin Shu and stepped aside to let Qin Shu in.

After Qin Shu went in, the man stood guard outside the door with a sword in his hand.

Fu Ying was just about to put on his coat when he saw Qin Shu come in. His leisurely and contented expression immediately fell, and he grimaced and hissed.

Qin Shu hurried over and reached out to take the coat from Fu Ying's hand, "Let me help you."

Fu Rong suddenly smiled slyly and took Qin Shu into his arms.

Qin Shu exclaimed in surprise and pushed him hard, "What are you doing? We've been caught... ugh!"

Her vision darkened, and Fu Rong had already lowered his head and kissed her.

The coat in Qin Shu's hand slipped to the ground unconsciously, and her hands unconsciously wrapped around Fu Ying's waist.

Fu Ying suddenly picked up Qin Shu, walked quickly to the inner room, and they both fell on the couch.

Qin Shu suddenly sank into the bed, and immediately woke up from her dazed state. She was so frightened that her hair stood on end. She pushed Fu Ying hard and whispered, "What are you doing?!"

Fu Rong hugged her and chuckled against her lips, "What's wrong?"

Qin Shu blushed and pushed Fu Rong hard, "You, don't do this, let me go."

Qin Shu felt a chill on her wrist. She raised her hand and looked at the strange bracelet on her wrist. She looked at Fu Ying in confusion, "Is this for me?"

Fu Ying held Qin Shu's wrist and looked at it, then lowered his head to hold her earlobe, said "hmm" vaguely, and then clasped her wrist above her head.

Qin Shu's scalp went numb, and she couldn't help but gasp. She tilted her head to the side, and her voice was obviously trembling when she spoke again, "Don't mess around. Someone else will come to discuss matters later..."

Fu Ying laughed silently and whispered, "That's not what you said when we were in the mountains."

On the mountain?

When Qin Shu thought of what she had said, she regretted it so much that she wanted to bite off her tongue.

But the words have been spoken and it is too late to take them back.

But when she really had to do that, she realized that some things were engraved in her bones and could not be easily changed.

When the time came, she still couldn't be so carefree.

Fu Yu stood up slightly, looked at Qin Shu with a smile, and gently hooked her chin with his finger, "Are you scared now?"
