I'm the villain in the book

"How about it?"

"fine."

The middle-aged man with the lantern nodded, and the beautiful woman heaved a sigh of relief with just two words.

"Thank God, it's okay, it's okay..."

"..."

With the current strength of the Wei family, what happened in Shuzhou last night naturally cannot be hidden from Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen.

The two of them never closed their eyes after hearing that Wei Changtian went to stop Zhenshan Camp alone and disappeared, and even went to check Wei Changtian's fate card every few hours.

Fortunately, the life card has been intact until now.

But although Wei Changtian is fine, the current situation of the Wei family is not good.

Because just now, Ning Yongnian finally summoned Wei Xianzhi to the palace to face the saint.

The Shu army's breakout happened last night, but the former hadn't made any movement during the day, so it was hard not to think of what Wei Xianzhi was going to do if he insisted on summoning Wei Xianzhi in the middle of the night.

The moon is dark and the wind is high at night, killing people and setting fires.

Perhaps, the emperor finally decided to turn against the Wei family.

"You might as well not go."

Following Wei Xianzhi back into the house, Qin Caizhen persuaded with a worried face: "At this juncture, Ning Yongnian may not be sure what he will do."

"All the imperial guards who were out during the day have returned to the city, and they made it clear that they are for us to see."

"Let's delay the illness for a few days first, and it won't be too late to discuss after Changtian has a letter."

"..."

Putting the lantern in the corner, Wei Xianzhi was silent for a long time before speaking.

Although what Qin Caizhen said was not unreasonable, his perspective on thinking about the problem was obviously different.

"If you don't go...will Ning Yongnian give up?"

"Who can say for sure what will happen in Shuzhou?"

"Oh, my son is in trouble. As a father, I will wipe his ass sooner or later."

"But......"

Qin Caizhen frowned and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Wei Xianzhi waving his hand:

"Needless to say, there is no point in delaying this matter any longer."

"Didn't Ning Yongnian want to show us the Guards? Then let's show him the Xuanjing Division as well."

"..."

This time, Qin Caizhen didn't persuade her any more.

Although she was not very polite to Wei Xianzhi on weekdays, she was actually like an ordinary woman when encountering major events, she would never sing against her man's decision.

"Then...shall I ask father to go out?"

"Go."

Nodding his head, Wei Xianzhi watched Qin Caizhen leave in a hurry, and then yelled softly at the door.

"Wang Er!"

"master."

Wang Er immediately stepped into the room, bowed and said, "The villain is here."

"Well, now you take my token and go to Xuanjingsi to burn Zuyu."

While speaking, Wei Xianzhi casually threw a black token to Wang Er.

His tone was so calm that Wang Er once thought he had heard wrong.

"master......"

Wang Er glanced at the fake Xuanjing Commander's Token in his hand, widened his eyes and confirmed, "You mean... Zhuo Zuyu?"

"Ah."

"Well, then what?"

Wang Er breathed out and asked again: "I don't know what the master is going to do?"

"..."

Wei Xianzhi paused for a while, looked at the night outside the house and calmly replied:

"Then follow me to the palace."

Chapter 464 The Storm Is Coming

When it was ugly, it was the capital of Daning.

"Boom—boom, boom, boom..."

"It's four o'clock when it's ugly, and it's freezing cold!"

"Boom—boom, boom, boom..."

"No wind, no rain, safe and sound..."

"..."

Shen Chen became more anxious, and gradually the voice disappeared.

One fast and three slow bangs echoed in the deserted streets and alleys, and the watchman dragged his long tail, shouting the same "safe and sound" every day like a wandering ghost.

Since the Xu family rebelled half a year ago, Ning Yongnian had ordered all big cities with a population of more than [-] households to implement a curfew, which naturally included the capital city of Daning.

Although Jizhou was later destroyed and Wei Yanyu fled the city with the "remnants" of the Xu family, the curfew has never been lifted and has continued to this day.

And as watchmen who can walk freely at night, they also fully witnessed the whole process of the night in the capital from the previous bustling and lively to the present quiet and deserted.

Jizhou, Yuanzhou, Dafeng, Shuzhou... Although the successive wars have never affected this place, the series of impacts brought by the war have subtly changed this ancient city for thousands of years.

No wind, no rain, nothing happened.

If only that was the case...

Looking up at the night sky where the moon and stars were scarce, the policeman cursed in his heart, went around the corner of the street, and turned into Yongning Lane where Xuan Jingsi was located.

then.

"Clang!"

The gong fell to the ground, and the long cry came to an abrupt end.

He stared wide-eyed, looking at the dense crowd in front of him who had been stretching for nowhere, his eyes were full of black tiger dragon uniforms and countless cold gazes.

The chilling intention that was almost condensed into reality made the watchman tremble uncontrollably, his mouth opened wide but he couldn't make a sound.

He tried his best to turn around and escape, but his legs were nailed to the spot like lead, and he couldn't lift even half an inch.

The gong that fell to the ground reflected the moonlight, and the moonlight reflected the figure of a man not far away.

The latter just calmly glanced at the pale-faced watchman, and then looked away, facing the black-clothed guards who crowded the entire long street, and uttered two words.

"ignition."

"call!!!"

Like a fire dragon suddenly appeared, countless torches were lit at the same time, and the crimson fire instantly illuminated the whole alley like daytime.

Then, the fire dragon rushed out of Yongning Lane under the dazed gaze of the watchman, and slowly moved towards the palace.

The footsteps of more than ten thousand people pierced the tranquility of the capital, the wind was cold, and the coolness of the moonlight was almost piercing.

But Wei Xianzhi didn't intend to hide his whereabouts at all.

Because since he wants to show Ning Yongnian the Wei family's sword, he will not hide it, but show his sharpness.

He wanted Ning Yongnian to know that the Wei family was neither the Liu family nor the Xu family.

He wants Ning Yongnian to understand that in this capital city of Ning, it doesn't matter if you are the emperor!

"..."

"Close all windows!"

"Light the fire!"

"Falling the city gate!!"

Accompanied by the shouts that suddenly sounded from everywhere, the huge capital instantly became full of uproar.

On the side of the street, doors and windows were tightly shut by people who hurriedly got up from their beds.

Farther away, the iron chain turned, and the four huge city gates also crashed down.

Hundreds of watchtowers standing tall all over the capital suddenly lit fires one after another, and crowds of people rushed from all directions in the same direction amidst the sky-high flames.

There are six-door guards in flying fish suits.

There are soldiers of the captain's mansion with white cloaks on their shoulders.

There is a yellow armor city preparing the army with weapons in the army.

There are big and small rivers and lakes gangs headed by the Freemasonry...

Wei Xianzhi has never been an incompetent person. In the six months since Liu Xu was wiped out and the Wei family gained power, he has already controlled all the armed forces in the capital except the imperial guards with the help of the Xuanjing Division and the Tongzhou Club.

He has never been a cowardly person, although a year ago he had never had the intention of rebellion, but now he is going to be a rebellious minister who dares to brag about the world.

Last year on Chongyang, Wei Changtian surrounded the Xiangfu with more than 1000 people from the Xuanjing Division for Qiuyun and Zhuo Zuyu.

But today, as a father, he has to do a very similar thing for his son.

Bring people around the palace.

......

......

Dafeng, outside Fengyuan City.

Compared with the capital city of Daning where the storm is approaching, although the atmosphere on a low mountain here is not so earth-shattering, it is still enough to draw swords.

Seven second-rank masters headed by the gray-robed old man reined in their horses and stopped in the middle of the forest path, and opposite them stood several warriors who were equally imposing.

"Everyone, I have been waiting here for a long time."

In the flames, Wu Ding squinted his eyes, looked at the seven people opposite him again, and finally his eyes fell on Li Wutong who was at the back.

After a few breaths, he withdrew his gaze, and bowed his hands at the gray-robed old man very politely.

"I am Wu Ding, General of the Western Town of Daning, and I want to talk to some of you by order of the Emperor of Daning."

"I don't know if any of you are willing to get off the horse and talk about it?"

"..."

Looking back at Li Wutong, the gray-robed old man's expression was calm, and he didn't become flustered because of the sudden appearance of people blocking the way.

"General Wu, I know what you want to ask, but I'm sorry I can't answer the general's questions."

"So, please make way for the general."

"..."

The shadow of the moon swayed, and the birds and beasts in the forest trembled.

Although the atmosphere between the two parties was not too tense at this time, there was an undercurrent surging.

Wu Ding led people to stop here for two purposes.

Either the seven gray-robed old men were not allowed to take Li Wutong away, or they wanted to inquire about their situation.

Of course, it is impossible for any gray-robed old man and others to agree to these two matters.

And Wu Ding will definitely not give way so easily.

How Ning Yongnian confessed to him is still unknown, but if violence is to be used...
