Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

Li Shuangwan asked again: "I heard from Master Jiu that every child who was captured for training wore a mask on his face, which could not be removed until death. The only way to distinguish them was by the code under the left ear?"

"Yes."

"So no one has seen the faces of the secret guards?"

"There is only one Si Po, and all the secret guards are under his control. When Ling Heng went to Linshan to find his replacement, he only brought the man out and had someone touch the skeleton of Brother Jiu, but the mask was not removed. Don't worry, Miss Li, I went to the mass grave and saw that the human skin mask on the man's face was intact, which means Si Po didn't find it."

Li Shuangwan breathed a long sigh of relief. What Gu Xingyan told her was the same as in her previous life.

"Master Shu, Sipo cannot be kept."

Shu Wenbo nodded: "Indeed, but he is a top-notch expert beside Ling Si, it is not that easy to kill him."

"Master Shu, you and Master Liang must get out of the Heng Palace secret guards as soon as possible."

"It has been arranged, don't worry Miss Li. When we return to Daliang, we will discuss the matter of killing Sipo with Brother Nine."

"As for Ling Heng." Shu Wenbo looked at Li Shuangwan, "Before leaving, Brother Nine said that this man is waiting for you, Miss Li, to kill him."

Li Shuangwan's eyes were filled with cruelty: "I will cut him into pieces with my own hands!"

Li Shuangwan knew that they had the poison that Ling Heng used to control the secret guards. Gu Xingyan had the treatment prescription that Luo Luo gave him in his previous life, so there was no need to worry.

However, the poison would still break out every six months. If it was not completely eliminated by the time he was forty, he would die of intestinal perforation.

Fortunately, there is still time.

At the same time, news came from Liangzhou Prefecture that although Hu Zhenfang's family of more than 40 people were abducted by Liangshan bandits, within a few days Hu Zhenfang gained the trust of the bandit leader with his eloquent tongue. Not only did he release all the Hu family members, but he also regarded him as a military advisor and respected him very much.

On the one hand, Hu Zhenfang mediated with the boss on the surface, and on the other hand, he secretly sent his eldest grandson Hu Ting'an to secretly contact Qi Yuanming, the governor of Liangzhou Prefecture, revealing the bandits' lair to Qi Yuanming and requesting Lord Qi to contact General Lou to send troops.

On a dark and windy night, the Liangshan bandits who had troubled the Northern Jin court for several years were finally defeated by the joint efforts of inside and outside forces.

That group of bandits numbered more than 30,000 people, a number beyond everyone's expectation, and they were well-equipped. No wonder the court had sent several groups of people over the past decade or so, but was unable to completely wipe them out.

This group of bandits has committed many atrocities in recent years, and each of them has the blood of innocent people on his hands to a greater or lesser extent.

Seeing that they were really defeated this time, the bandits sent their second in command to express their willingness to surrender.

General Lou did not dare to make a decision on his own, and at the same time he rushed military reports over 800 miles to Emperor Jingzhang.

On the one hand, he pretended to accept their surrender, became one with them, ate and lived together, and just waited for the imperial court's order.

Emperor Jingzhang had long been eager to get rid of this group of people, so how could he agree to it?

Moreover, among the 30,000 men who died in the battle, 10,000 still had 20,000 left. No matter how they were dispersed and assigned to which armies, they would always be a huge hidden danger.

Emperor Jingzhang immediately ordered his chief eunuch Zhang Desheng to rush to Liangzhou in person to deliver two imperial edicts, one obvious and one secret.

When the bandits saw someone coming to the palace, they all stretched their necks in anticipation.

Zhang Desheng was worthy of being an old eunuch who had followed Emperor Jingzhang for decades. In front of more than 20,000 bandits, he read out the imperial edict in a loud voice.

The imperial edict simply said that since they were willing to reform themselves, the court had no objection, and the 20,000 men were to be dispersed and assigned to various armies. It was hoped that they would behave themselves in the future, reform themselves, fight on the battlefield, and repay the court's great kindness.

After the imperial edict was read, the cheers of more than 20,000 people resounded throughout the valley.

However, what they didn't know was that after Zhang Desheng finished reading the imperial edict, he entered the house, immediately invited General Lou and Qi Yuanming in, and took out a secret edict from his arms.

"My lords, the imperial edict just now was issued by the emperor in order to stabilize those bandits. This is the real will of your majesty." After saying this, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.

The two were already somewhat dissatisfied with Emperor Jingzhang for letting these people go so easily. When they heard this, they hurriedly took the secret order respectfully.

After watching, the two looked at each other and immediately went down to prepare.

Zhang Desheng left with a smile.

When he left, even the bandits came out to see him off.

It was a dark and windy night, a time for murder and arson.

When the bandits thought they could now stand in the sun with dignity and drink to celebrate, none of them imagined that the drinks had been drugged.

The harvest of more than 20,000 lives would leave a hole in even the sharpest blade.

After the bandits were eliminated, Qi Yuanming and General Lou invited Hu Zhenfang and his family to return to Shengjing together, but Hu Zhenfang refused.

"I am a guilty minister. Although I helped Lord Qi and General Lou to eliminate the bandits, I only did a small part. Your Majesty has ordered the male members of the Hu family to be exiled to Wushan Pass. Lord Qi, please send a few yamen runners to escort us to Wushan Pass."

At this time, the remaining 42 men of Hu Zhenfang were still in shackles and were already on their way to Wushan Pass.

Li Shuangwan just smiled when he heard the news from Shu Wenbo. Mr. Hu was just like his own father, both blindly loyal.

"Please help Master Shu to send a few people to secretly protect Mr. Hu and his family. I'm worried that someone in Shengjing City is unwilling to kill them and put the blame on the prince."

Shu Wenbo nodded: "Yes, Miss Li, don't worry, Brother Nine also told me before he left."

In fact, Ninth Brother's people never left and have been protecting them secretly. Even Cui Jingyu also sent people to protect the men of the Hu family.

"Nineth Brother said that Mr. Hu is loyal to the people and loves the people of the world, not the man sitting on the dragon throne. Miss Li has nothing to worry about."

Li Shuangwan was stunned for a moment. It turned out that Gu Xingyan had always understood her.

Her determination to destroy Northern Jin had never changed since her rebirth, but with these loyal ministers and generals in Northern Jin and Gu Xingyan's words, she felt relieved.

However, not long after Hu Zhenfang and the other Hu family men left, a memorial jointly written by Qi Yuanming and General Lou, along with several letters and a pile of other evidence, was delivered to Emperor Jingzhang's dragon case at full speed.

It turned out that when they were cleaning up the bodies the next day, they found important evidence.

Emperor Jingzhang looked at the evidence in front of him and became so angry that his face turned blue and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Rebellion, rebellion, everyone is rebelling!

Jinyiwei commander Lu Dongqing was wearing a Feiyu uniform, with an embroidered spring sword on his waist, and stood at the bottom like a pine tree.

"Zhang Desheng! Zhang Desheng!" Emperor Jingzhang shouted.

Zhang Desheng hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, this old servant is here."

"Go, go and call Zheng Xinjiang to me, go quickly!" Emperor Jingzhang was like a beast on the verge of going crazy.

Zhang Desheng's face changed. It was New Year's Day and today was only the 13th day of the first lunar month. The court had not officially opened yet. Why was the emperor so angry? It seemed that something big had happened.
