Zhou Ling wanted to kill Zhang Baoxiang because Zhang Baoxiang was kind.

This actually sounds like a ridiculous thing.

But in fact, sometimes the more absurd something is, the more it represents reality.

At this time, the prefectural government was filled with the sound of killing.

When Wei Zheng and Zhang Baoxiang entered the palace, they were concerned that if their guesses were wrong, it would lead to even bigger misunderstandings, so they didn't actually bring too many people with them.

As a result, although the quality of Wei Zheng's soldiers was higher than that of Zhou Ling's personal guards, the huge difference in numbers still caused Wei Zheng's side to begin to retreat in this siege.

"Zhang Baoxiang, you die!" Zhou Ling saw that the time had come, so he raised the long knife in his hand, started with a big chop, and charged straight into the crowd.

"You dog-like thing, you dare to call me by my name?!" Zhang Baoxiang was so bloodthirsty at this time that he even forgot that he had reinforcements and immediately prepared to meet them.

Just now.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

There was a burst of dense sound of breaking air in the air, and then, in the backyard of the prefectural governor's mansion, those soldiers who had previously drawn their swords and faced Wei Zheng with a grim smile were pierced through the wrists and calves by arrows - although they did not hit the vital points directly, they were able to make these people lose their combat ability instantly.

"Who?!" Zhou Ling drew his sword and blocked several crossbow arrows shot at him. He could not help but roared: "This is Xingzhou! Are you really not afraid of death?!"

"Don't be afraid." A low and slightly hoarse voice answered Zhou Ling.

"Sir..." Wang Dayong's general in the back reminded, "Look... there are many men in black holding crossbows on the roofs around us! They must be military personnel!"

After all, only the Tang Dynasty’s military is qualified to be equipped with such a powerful weapon.

"It's a near failure after all..." Wang Dayong looked a little regretful when he heard this. Then he turned his head to look at Dou Du who was standing at the back of the crowd - on the steps in the corridor.

At this time Dou Du also turned his attention to him.

The two people's eyes met briefly at this moment, and they had completed their communication.

Wang Dayong: The failure of this plan is not my fault.

Dou Du: I take back what I said before - you are even more useless than Dou Wei!

Because of the appearance of His Royal Highness the King of Chu's black-clad warriors, Wei Zheng's side instantly stood on the scale of victory.

"What are you standing there for?" Zhou Ling thought the people coming were Wei Zheng and Zhang Baoxiang's personal soldiers, so he didn't take them seriously at all: "Pick up your weapons and continue to kill for me!"

"..." After Zhou Ling finished speaking, his personal soldiers hesitated for a long time.

Then, one or two fearless people raised their swords and prepared to fight again.

The result can be imagined.

"Swoosh!" This time, after the sound of breaking through the air, it was the opponent's throat that was pierced!

"Your Highness the King of Chu will only be merciful once," the leading man in black said again, "If you want to die, try again!"

“Clang…Clang…”

When the name of His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was announced, Zhou Ling's personal soldiers lost the idea of ​​resistance: Nowadays, in the army of the Tang Dynasty, if there are people who don't know how capable His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu and his subordinates are, then they are extremely stupid.

"Finally they've arrived..." Wei Zheng's mood was very complicated at the moment. He originally thought that the King of Chu's rescue would not arrive in time, or that the leader of these death squads would be hostile to him like most of Dou's retainers, so he chose not to help.

who knew...

"Duke Wei, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is still very reliable at critical moments." Zhang Baoxiang laughed when he heard this, then turned his wrist and retracted the sword: "Anyone who puts down his weapon will be given a lenient sentence! This is your last chance!"

"We are willing to lay down our weapons!" At this point, even though Zhou Ling's personal soldiers knew that they would most likely be confiscated, exiled, or even beheaded for the evil things they had done following Zhou Ling over the years, at least they could still survive for the time being.

As long as you are alive, there may still be hope.

"Wang Dayong, am I Zhou Ling doing you a good job?" Zhou Ling saw that all his subordinates had given up resistance. He suddenly turned around and glanced at Wang Dayong behind him: "Don't forget what you promised me!"

"I understand!" Wang Dayong nodded solemnly upon hearing this.

So, next, Zhou Ling started rushing towards Zhang Baoxiang with a knife in hand.

Just as Zhang Baoxiang was about to draw his weapon again and step forward to meet the opponent's attack...

A dark shadow flashed past him quickly, remember...

"Boom!" The black shadow flashed in front of Zhou Ling, and before the latter could react, he kicked him in the chest, sending him flying several feet away.

When Zhou Ling's body hit the ground heavily, everyone present felt as if they were living in a dream.

"No... who is this person?" If we were to ask who among the crowd was the most shocked at this moment, that person would definitely be Wei Zheng.

Just now he even thought that the one who made the move was Jiang Qu, the ruthless and taciturn man standing beside His Royal Highness the King of Chu - the reason why Wei Zheng did not say anything harsh after Dou Shilun broke the sword with his fingers at Mount Li was because of Jiang Qu who was standing beside Dou Shilun at that time.

Wei Zheng could feel a pure and strong murderous intent from the other party.

This is not scary. What is scary is that Wei Zheng did not have the slightest desire to resist.

Because he knew that if he faced Jiang Qu at that time, it would be like an ant trying to shake a tree and he would have no chance of winning.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu has ordered that today's matter will be dealt with after he arrives in person." After saying this, the man in black flew back to the roof and sat cross-legged.

The men in black around him were still holding their strung large yellow crossbows, pointing them at the people in the field from afar.

Wei Zheng even discovered that some of them were targeting himself.

"..." What else could Wei Zheng say? His Royal Highness the King of Chu was really...

When it comes to "mediating a fight", this old man advocates equality for all: You can't beat me anyway, so why fight?

“Is this the trump card that the old lady left for the young master?” Dou Du looked at the men in black on the rooftops around him, and the smile on the old lady’s face never stopped: “Hahahaha… Good! The old lady is still far-sighted! With these elites around the young master, he can be kept safe…”

"Mr. Dou, are you too happy too early?" Wang Dayong turned his head and looked at Dou Du with a sarcastic look: "You are not the only loyal person in this world, no!"

"You?" Dou Wei frowned slightly when he heard that.

But then he realized something was wrong.

"Duke Wei!" At this moment, Wang Dayong suddenly ran to Wei Zheng and knelt down on the ground: "Today's siege against you and General Zhang was not my intention, but someone threatened the lives of my wife and children and forced me to do this!"
