In the guest room, the eighteen people couldn't help but look at each other, and they all saw the incomprehensible look in the eyes of others.

They were really a little confused, what do you mean if they belonged to Qilinwei, they would be killed so that they could serve Wang Cheng, but if they belonged to His Royal Highness, they would be allowed to survive.

Compared with Qilin Guard, His Royal Highness is Wang Cheng's sworn enemy!

No, could it be...

Han Yue's thoughts changed sharply, and he suddenly had a bold guess. Perhaps the person outside the door was not Wang Cheng's, or the other party and Wang Cheng were not completely of the same mind.

But he was also worried that the other party was just trying to find out his origin, so he pondered for a moment, and then continued to ask: "I don't know what kind of deep hatred you have with Qilin Guard? What is the relationship with Xiao Jie?"

"It's very simple!" The people outside the door answered very straightforwardly, "Wang Dadu doesn't want people from Qilin Guards in the city. If you are Qilin Guards, of course you can't be kept. But if you are from Xiao Jie, it's different. Someone owed him a favor, and I was just repaying him for someone else."

Han Yue suddenly realized, but he would not be moved by a few words, so he continued to ask with a look of vigilance: "Why should we trust you?"

The implication is to admit that they are indeed Xiao Jie's people.

A playful laugh came from outside the door: "Do you still have a choice? If you believe in me and follow me, there is still a chance of life, but if you don't believe me, you will die when the other Liangzhou troops come undoubtedly!"

Han Yue glanced back at the other seventeen people, seeing that the others were nodding to him, saying that he could give it a try, he couldn't help but secretly sighed, everything can only depend on God's will, when the time comes, as long as there is something wrong with the other party, they will Even if you fight to the death, you will not be tortured by them.

"Okay, let's go with you." Han Yue shouted out the door.

Soon, the door was pushed open, and a young general appeared in front of them. Behind him were dozens of soldiers, and the crossbows in the hands of each soldier were raised at the same time, aiming at them.

Han Yue's eyes moved away from those cold crossbow bolts, his eyes fell on the face of the young general, and he called out the opponent's name coldly: "Wang Shao."

In order to facilitate things in Liangzhou, Han Yuelin went to the Ministry of War to check the information and portraits of the main generals of the Liangzhou Army before departure, so he immediately recognized the young general in front of him as Wuwei General Wang Shao.

And he also knew that Wang Shao had another identity, which was Wang Cheng's fake son.

Daning has always had a tradition, that is, civil servants like to accept students, and military generals like to admit fakes. Wang Cheng is no exception. It is rumored outside that he has dozens of fakes, all of whom are people with extraordinary skills. Cheng placed these dummies among the battalions and guards of the Liangzhou Army, thereby firmly controlling the Liangzhou Army.

And Wang Shao is one of Wang Cheng's adopted sons. He has won Wang Cheng's trust and respect, and he has achieved the position of General Wuwei all the way.

But until now, it was too late for Han Yue to regret it. He just turned his wrist secretly. Each of them had a dagger that was newly bought in Dongshi today for self-defense hidden in their sleeves. Breaking out is not very realistic, but it is still no problem to use this dagger to kill yourself at the last minute.

Seeing that the other party recognized him, Wang Shao couldn't help but a strange look flashed across his face, his eyes flicked over everyone's face, then he waved his hand and said to the soldiers behind him: "Take them to my house."

The guards were polite, they didn't make things difficult for Han Yue and his party, neither searched them nor tied them up with ropes, but escorted them all the way to Wang Shao's mansion.

Wang Shao led a group of people to the remote backyard, stopped in the middle of the yard, took a deep look at Han Yue, and said solemnly: "You come with me alone."

After finishing speaking, he walked towards one of the rooms without looking back, and didn't care whether Han Yue behind him followed.

Han Yue didn't speak, but exchanged glances with the other 17 people, signaling them to stay where they were and calm down, and then quickly followed Wang Shao into the room.

Wang Shao's personal soldiers also stayed in place and stared at the other seventeen people, but did not follow.

In the room, Wang Shao looked at Han Yue calmly, and asked lightly, "How do you prove that you are Xiao Jie's person?"

Han Yue didn't speak, just bent down, fiddling with the heels of the shoes with both hands, quickly pulled out a piece of white cloth from the interlayer of the soles, then picked up the wine gourd at his waist, shook it a few times, only listening to the sound of the wine in the gourd. There was an inaudible "click" sound, as if some kind of mechanism was triggered.

Han Yue looked up at Wang Shao, hesitating for a moment, but in the end he spread the white cloth on the table and evenly poured the wine gourd liquid on the white cloth.

Wang Shao has been watching all this with cold eyes, neither speaking nor stopping.

After a while, handwriting slowly appeared on the white cloth, and Wang Shao lowered his head to take a rough look at the content on it.

This is a personal letter written by Xiao Jie as the prince of the prison country. He appointed Han Yue in front of him as the special envoy of the prince. All his actions in Liangzhou were ordered by Xiao Jie. Wei He will unconditionally cooperate with his actions.

At the bottom, there is a short paragraph written by Zhang Chu, the commander of the Qilin Guard, which means that the Qilin Guard in Liangzhou should cooperate unconditionally with Han Yue's actions.

This autograph letter was originally a key token for Han Yue to be able to contact and command the Liangzhou Qilin Guard, and it was also an important token for Han Yue to instigate rebellion against the generals of the Liangzhou Army when necessary.

Just based on the Xiao Jie's handwritten letter in front of him, Wang Shao can be sure that the Han Yue in front of him is the person Xiao Jie sent to Liangzhou, and a knowing smile appeared on his face: "Since you are really Xiao Jie's people, Then as long as you stay in my house obediently, no one will harm your wealth and lives."

Han Yue's face did not show the joy of surviving a catastrophe. After hesitating for a moment, he still couldn't help asking the confusion in his heart: "Why did you save us?"

Wang Shao shook his head, spread his hands and said helplessly: "As for the reason why I want to save you, I have made it clear enough when I was at the inn just now, and you have nothing to do if you don't believe me."

Han Yue still couldn't believe it. He remembered that according to the information about Wang Shao kept by the Ministry of War, he was an orphan who sold himself into the Wang family as a slave when he was very young. Take him to Liangzhou to join the army.

Wang Shao himself also strives for success. He made great achievements in suppressing the Qiang people in Liangzhou many times, and was promoted to the position of General Wuwei along the way. He won Wang Cheng's respect and trust, and he was accepted as a fake.

With just such a person, Han Yue naturally couldn't believe it when you said he would cheat on Wang Cheng behind his back.

Moreover, Wang Shaoming was an orphan and had no other relatives alive, so Han Yue had no way of guessing who he was going to help to repay the favor of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Wang Shao couldn't see Han Yue's doubts, but he didn't explain much, he just asked Han Yue to rest well, and then he left the room without looking at the other seventeen people in the courtyard, and walked straight away.

The soldiers also left behind Wang Shao, leaving only seventeen people in the yard staring at each other, not knowing what trick Wang Shao was playing.

Han Yue looked at Wang Shao's leaving back with a dignified expression.

After Wang Shao left the backyard, he ordered the guards beside him to get eighteen criminals who had committed capital crimes from the prison, and secretly sent them to his house through the back door to kill them. Burial in the mass grave outside, so that Wang Cheng can give an explanation.

After finishing everything, Wang Shao sent his own soldiers and came to another remote courtyard alone. Seeing that there was no one around, he gently knocked on the door.

Not long after, a woman's voice came from the room: "Who?"

"Your Highness, it's me, Wang Shao."
