After wearing the book, he was favored by the villains in line

At the same time, from Zhao Chuan's side, two forbidden soldiers suddenly reported that they had seen two comatose comrades during the search.

After Zhao Chuan heard the news, Dang even his face sank, and the cronies around him said in surprise:

"The secret passage is dark and secret, and it's hard to see. If someone pretends to be an imperial guard, it may be difficult to distinguish for a while. I haven't caught anyone after searching for so long. Could it be... Could it be that they have escaped through disguise? "

Zhao Chuan looked at the subordinate who came forward to report, and the subordinate hurriedly bowed his hands and saluted:

"Return to the commander, the brothers of the imperial army currently stationed at the foot of the mountain have been following your orders, not to mention two living people, even a bird can't even think of flying out of this imperial tomb, the assassin is definitely still there There is no doubt in the mountains."

Zhao Chuan thought for a while:

"The order to go on, the whole army is on alert, saying that assassins are likely to infiltrate our people, use the password, and those who fail to match the password will be punished as assassins, and they will be killed. Send people to search in the forest. Our people haven't touched it yet. Exit, if there is someone hiding in the forest, it is very likely that it is an assassin in disguise, I would rather kill by mistake than let it go!"

The subordinate looked up at him in surprise. Without him, under normal circumstances, someone failed to receive the message in time, did not know the coded message, or someone checked the exit, but failed to send back the message in time. , are all possible.

But as soon as Zhao Chuan opened his mouth, he wanted to put people to death. He didn't even consider whether there was a possibility of mistakes or omissions, and his killing intent was already overflowing.

He moved his lips and teeth, wanting to say something, but he still didn't speak, he just lowered his head and said:

"Yes, this subordinate will pass the order."

The person sent from Lan Jingxuan reminded in a low voice:

"Commander Zhao, it's getting late, and we can't find anyone...Lan Xiang..."

Zhao Chuan's face became more and more ugly, he clenched his fist and said:

"You don't need to remind me. Where is Bei Yanfeng? Has his people entered the secret path yet?"

The confidant on the side quickly said:

"Subordinates, go and urge—"

However, before the words fell, a sneer was heard not far away:

"No need, I'm here, let the brother I brought out with one hand go in and die, I only have two words in Beiyanfeng - don't do it!"

Zhao Chuan frowned, and looked at Bei Yanfeng who was walking not far away with a long knife on his waist:

"Bei Yanfeng, what do you mean?"

Holding the handle of the long knife, Bei Yanfeng stood a foot in front of Zhao Chuan, and said with a smile:

"What does Commander Zhao mean by my surname Bei, a rough man?"

Zhao Chuan's confidant stood up immediately and said:

"What is Deputy Commander Bei doing? Your Majesty ordered the imperial guards to search for the assassins with all their might. Commander Bei refused to obey His Majesty's order and sent people into the secret passage. Now he is still leaving his post without permission. Commander challenged, isn't he afraid that His Majesty will punish him?!"

It's okay if he doesn't say that, when it comes to the emperor, Bei Yanfeng originally had a hypocritical smile on his face, and when he heard this, his eyes sharpened, his expression turned serious, and he looked straight at him:

"What did you say? Your Majesty's order? Do you dare to say that the order to order the brother of the imperial army to go in and die is really His Majesty's own words? I'm afraid it wasn't Zhao Chuan who pretended to be His Majesty's will, and acted recklessly and bullied the world!"

The dog leg felt guilty, and subconsciously didn't dare to look directly at him, so he just stuck his neck and said stiffly:

"Bold! How can you, a deputy commander, be able to figure out what the holy will is like! How dare you slander the commander like this if you have any evidence!"

"evidence?"

Bei Yanfeng sneered, looked at Zhao Chuan and said:

"Since I'm talking about this, I won't beat around the bush. I just want to ask you, Zhao, where is Your Majesty now? Why has he refused to show up?"

Zhao Chuan frowned slightly:

"I have already said in public that Your Majesty was frightened. I am afraid that there are still spies in the army. Now they are placed in a secret safe place. If one less person knows His Majesty's whereabouts, Your Majesty will be more safe. Your Majesty trusts me, so I just let this matter go." Entrust all the power to me, I believe that I will be loyal to my duty and have a clear conscience, but you are so aggressive, are you the insider that His Majesty suspects?"

Even though he had already learned the ins and outs of the matter from Ying Ze, Bei Yanfeng still laughed angrily at Zhao Chuan's brazenness when he heard Zhao Chuan's remarks:

"Okay! What a dedicated person, with a clear conscience! In this case, Zhao, you should open your dog eyes and see clearly. If you look at it, you still recognize it. Who is this?!"

A trace of uneasiness flashed through Zhao Chuan's heart, and when he looked up, he saw a person walking slowly from behind Bei Yanfeng, dressed in the uniform of the imperial army, against the light, and couldn't see his face clearly for a while, he squinted his eyes carefully to see who it belonged to For a moment, his pupils shrank subconsciously, and his hand subconsciously touched the long sword at his waist.

Bei Yanfeng's sneer came from the side:

"Surnamed Zhao, you said that His Majesty trusts you, and only you know where His Majesty is hiding. Then you should explain why His Majesty, who should have been frightened and hidden, appeared here now?!"

Some of the Forbidden Army who didn't know the truth and believed in Zhao Chuan wholeheartedly, were also in shock when they recognized Ying Ze's identity. They subconsciously turned to look at Zhao Chuan, trying to get a reasonable explanation.

Zhao Chuan slowly clenched the hilt of the sword with five fingers, but soon let it go, looked up at Ying Ze, bowed his hands respectfully and said:

"The general... has met His Majesty. Please forgive me. The situation is chaotic. The general knows that if all the officials find out that your whereabouts are unknown, it may cause chaos. Show up, but in fact, people have been sent to search for your whereabouts. Now that you have returned safely, the big stone in the general's heart has finally fallen to the ground, as long as you are safe and sound, the general is willing to accept punishment."

Bei Yanfeng didn't expect that Zhao Chuan's reaction would be so quick and thoughtful. In such a short period of time, he actually thought up a set of almost perfect rhetoric. He immediately widened his eyes, pointed at Zhao Chuan and said:

"You...you...shameless!"

Zhao Chuan never got up, just bowed his head and said:

"Zhao Chuan knew that Vice Commander Bei was born in a difficult life, and he always wanted to be reused by His Majesty, make great contributions, and cleanse the Bei family of their past crimes. However, in this matter, Zhao Chuan consciously dedicated himself to serving the country. Although he did something wrong, he was also worried about state affairs. Why does the commander make it so difficult for me?"

The Bei surname used to be a very honorable general, but when the Bei Qin invaded, one of the guards of the border town was the son of the head of the Bei family at that time, but because of drinking, he lost the city and became a deserter. Guilty suicide.

When the parents of the Bei family far away in the capital heard about this incident, they were so angry that they recovered from their injuries and passed away. Although the late emperor was kind and did not punish the family, he still deprived the Bei family of hereditary titles.

Bei Yanfeng is the descendant of the general of the Bei family. Without the family's protection, he was able to achieve his current position after being a criminal minister. In addition to his own general talent, Ying Ze's love for talent is also indispensable.
