I started as an exile, and I relied on space to support my family of loyal heroes.

Chang Sun Dongcai's eyes lit up, and he excitedly stood up and walked around the table, taking the secret letter from the spy with trembling hands.

It's been eight days, and he hasn't received any secret letters from Xiao Yunzhan. He really can't control those rough guys anymore.

Chang Sun Dongcai excitedly opened the secret letter. Looking at Xiao Yunzhan's handwriting on it, he finally put his heart at ease.

"Hurry up and inform Vice General Zhao and the others to go to the meeting hall."

The servant responded and ran out quickly.

A moment later, all the important members of the Xiao family's private army arrived at the meeting hall.

Chang Sun Dongcai had a solemn look on his face, scanning everyone one by one.

Zhao Hu was so anxious that he kept scratching his head. "Military Advisor, stop looking at me. Tell me quickly, is there any news about General Xiao?"

Zhang Sun Dongcai looked at Zhao Hu's anxious expression and handed him the secret letter.

"This is General Xiao's personal letter. Please take a look."

Zhao Hu's eyes lit up, he snatched the secret letter from the military advisor's hand, and hurriedly opened it to take a look.

After reading it, he sighed deeply and handed it to the left and right lieutenant generals who were craning their necks in anxiety.

Soon, the secret letter was circulated in the meeting hall.

Chang Sun Dongcai glanced at the secret letter that was returned to his hand, raised his eyelids, and looked at everyone with a serious face.

"General Xiao has ordered that no action be taken rashly. Anyone who dares to disobey the order will be punished by military law!"

The soldiers were so angry that they clenched their teeth.

However, this was indeed General Xiao's handwritten letter. Even if they were unwilling, they could only wait.

Wait for General Xiao's next instructions. As long as General Xiao is alive, they will have hope.

After Chang Sun Dongcai came out of the meeting hall, he did not return to the tent but went straight back to the mansion.

Less than half an hour after returning to the mansion, a carrier pigeon fluttered its wings and landed in front of the military advisor's window.

Chang Sun Dongcai frowned, took off the bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's feet, poured out the note inside and opened it.

"really!?"

Chang Sun Dongcai looked at the contents on the note, his pupils suddenly trembled, and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.

"Good, good!! Very good!"

That night, Chang Sun Dongcai did not alarm anyone in the military camp, but directly contacted the hundreds of secret guards that Xiao Yunzhan had left for him before he left.

Xiao Yunzhan had been secretly training these secret guards since his father and brother died on the battlefield.

He and Xiao Yunzhan had always suspected that the old general and his men had died in mysterious circumstances.

Given the martial arts skills of the old general and his two sons, ordinary people could not easily hurt them, so how could they die without an intact body?

That night, hundreds of secret guards split up into small groups, infiltrated from various parts of Brahma City, and quickly headed towards the capital.

...........

Beijing.

Minister of Revenue Chai Fu.

"Sir, General Xiao killed the officers and ran away. I don't know if we should continue to follow him."

The spy knelt on the ground with his head bowed, not daring to mention their negligence.

"What!?"

Chai Yuanyu stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open in shock.

"Are you sure it was General Xiao who killed them? He---he was so badly injured, how could he kill so many officials?"

He saw with his own eyes that Xiao Yunzhan's back was broken, and he heard that he was also hit by two arrows. How could he heal so quickly?

The spy lowered his head and said "Oops" to himself.

He should have said that General Xiao was kidnapped, but he made a mistake in the excitement, and now he can only make the best of it.

The spy said with a stiff upper lip.

"Yes, I saw it clearly, it was General Xiao."

After a pause, the spy continued, "I heard from Madam Xiao that she used a secret medicine on General Xiao, and General Xiao was very skilled in martial arts, so he was able to recover so quickly..."

After saying this, the spy let out a long sigh of relief.

At this critical moment, he suddenly had an idea and thought of such a perfect excuse. Old Madam Xiao did say this, and he heard it on the roof.

Chai Yuanyu frowned tightly and walked back and forth several times with his hands behind his back.

After a while, he stared at the spy and said, "Shut your mouth tightly. Don't tell anyone about this. Just pretend you don't know."

The fact that Xiao Yunzhan killed the official and escaped must not be revealed from him.

He is just a civil servant, so how can he interfere in the affairs of military officers? He should just concentrate on finding the stolen things.

The spy was delighted and nodded repeatedly.

There is no evidence now. It will have nothing to do with him if it is brought up again in the future.

At the same time, the mighty general Bai Hong also learned from his subordinates that Xiao Yunzhan's family killed the officials and escaped.

Bai Hong laughed happily, then dragged his deputy general to the martial arts training ground and had a good fight.

He felt very happy when he thought that Emperor Wu of Liang had not yet received the news of Xiao Yunzhan's escape.

Du Tianli, who was sent by Emperor Wu of Liang, was riding his horse at full speed at this time.

Seeing the Guangfengcheng Post Station right in front of him, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, the horse under him started foaming at the mouth, and fell straight to the ground with trembling limbs.

Du Tianli endured the pain in his knees and legs and jumped off the horse before the horse fell.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of horses falling heavily one after another was heard behind him.

Looking back, I saw that all six palace guards had jumped off their horses.

Some horses fell down and became unresponsive, while others kept twitching all over.

Running for two days and two nights straight, not only the horse couldn't stand it, but he, the rider, couldn't stand it either.

Du Tianli swallowed hard, and walked towards the Guangfengcheng Post Station with stiff legs in great pain.

The postmaster saw from afar a group of people with dusty faces and strange walking postures walking towards the post station.

Before the postmaster could ask any questions, Du Tianli showed his Imperial Guard badge and asked in a hoarse voice,

"Have any escort officers with dozens of prisoners stayed here in the past two days?"

The postmaster nodded and said, "Yes, Officer Meng and his men stayed there yesterday morning."

"Is it still there?!" Du Tianli's eyes lit up and he asked anxiously.

The postmaster was startled. "No, he's not here. He left at 3:30 yesterday afternoon."

“Ah!!! Aaaaaaah!!!”

Du Tianli was furious when he heard this, and roared in a hoarse voice, "Meng Zhuang, I'll fuck your mother..."

The person he wanted to kill most at this moment was Meng Zhuang.

The postmaster was so frightened by Du Tianli's mad look that he didn't dare to breathe.

At this time, a guard came forward and said,

"Boss, something's wrong. Meng Zhuang left yesterday, and we didn't see him on the way back and forth. Could something have happened to them?"

Du Tianli suddenly stopped talking and came back to his senses.

Yes, it’s understandable that they missed him when they went there, but they didn’t see him on their way back either.

Du Tianli frowned and looked towards the official road.

Something must have happened to Meng Zhuang and his group.

If Xiao Yunzhan was not killed, could his head still be saved?

After a while, Du Tianli turned his head and looked at the postmaster, and shouted,

"Prepare some horses for me immediately, go!"
