Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

All the sentries and covert sentries encountered along the way were captured by Jin Linwei!

After interrogation on the spot, it was confirmed that the direction was the same as the one the scent snake was looking for!

Finally, through the secret passage, they arrived at this big house in the east of the city one after another and slowly approached!

Prince Ning's guards are no pushovers either.

Soon he noticed an unidentified person approaching and immediately shouted, "Who is this? Protect the prince!"

Prince Ning, who was chatting happily with Marquis Changning, suddenly looked unhappy. "Zhou Ze, is this the person you brought with you?"

Changning Marquis Zhou Ze quickly pulled out the whip disguised as a belt from his waist, and without saying anything, swung the whip at King Ning.

Although he was a civil servant, he had practiced martial arts since childhood and had good skills.

The distance was very close, and the whip wrapped around King Ning's neck, directly pulling King Ning from behind the stone table.

Changning Marquis Zhou Ze leaned his back against the stone pillar of the pavilion, using it to protect the back of his head, heart and back, in case someone shot him with an arrow from behind. "Prince Ning has been executed, why don't you immediately lay down your weapons and surrender?"

Prince Ning's neck was red from being whipped, his eyes were bloodshot, "Don't worry about me! You are plotting a rebellion, and there is only one way to go, kill Zhou Ze, and fight your way out, then you can survive."

The crowd, who were originally in a panic, rose up in resistance after hearing King Ning's words.

Wu Yongzhu was an old and cunning man. After the initial panic, he rolled and crawled, eager to leave here. He must not be caught by Jin Linwei at all costs.

Jinlin Guard Xu Cheng shouted, "His Majesty has ordered that if you surrender, you will be spared the death penalty and your family members will not be implicated. But if you fight to the death, you will die, and none of your family members will survive."

Prince Ning cursed: "My brother is vicious and cruel. He would rather kill the wrong people than let anyone go. They just tricked you into surrendering and killed you all. Besides, I'm in trouble..."

Without waiting for Prince Ning to threaten the guards, Changning Marquis Zhou Ze chopped Prince Ning's neck with his knife.

Prince Ning’s voice suddenly stopped, his head tilted, and he fainted.

Most of those who followed Prince Ning in the rebellion were from Jingzhou and had families.

Now that His Majesty has captured Prince Ning and found the Ba Niu Crossbow, evidence of his rebellion, he will definitely attack Jingzhou, and all their families must die!

They may not be afraid of death, but they don't want to implicate their families!

At this time, a guard leader, Chen Xing, said loudly with a gleam in his eyes: "Jinlin Guards are your Majesty's pawns. We don't believe it. Unless Marquis Changning guarantees with the reputation of Marquis Changning's mansion that he will not kill us and will not implicate our families, we will surrender."

When the Jinlin guards heard this, they became furious and wished they could kill these traitors right away.

However, His Majesty instructed Xu Cheng to obey the orders of Marquis Changning.

Xu Cheng stepped forward and said, "My Lord, what do you think we should do?"

Marquis of Changning Zhou Ze pondered for a moment, his expression solemn, and his words spoken in a loud voice.

"Commander Xu, your majesty is benevolent. Just capture the leader of the rebels, Prince Ning. As for the other rebels, as long as they don't resist, they can surrender and keep their lives. They will be of great use later."

"Everyone, I, Zhou Ze, guarantee with the reputation of Changning Marquisate that as long as you lay down your weapons and surrender, I will never harm the lives of you and your families."

When Chen Xing heard this, he bowed to Marquis Changning and told the truth.

"My father once served under the old marquis, fighting in many battles. Later, he was assigned to King Ning as a soldier and settled in Jingzhou. We didn't want to rebel, but King Ning gave us poison, so we had to follow him. As long as he doesn't kill us and doesn't hurt our families, we have no complaints."

Marquis of Changning Zhou Ze was stunned and looked at Xu Cheng.

That thing is too vicious, these people must be spared.

Changning Marquis Zhou Ze responded, "Your Majesty has learned that King Ning used this poison, and is trying his best to trace the source and find an antidote."

After hearing this, everyone laid down their weapons, and no one stood up to resist and sacrifice their lives for King Ning.

Using poison to control the people around you and force them to remain loyal to you can only control their bodies, not their hearts.

Xu Cheng originally thought that there would be a fierce battle, but he didn't expect that the opponent would surrender without any effort.

More than twenty people in the yard were shackled and standing aside waiting.

"Tie him up and hand him over to your majesty for disposal." Marquis Changning handed the fainted Prince Ning to Xu Cheng, turned around to check, and exclaimed, "Where is Wu Yongzhu?"

At this time, a guard answered: "My Lord, here!"

Changning Marquis Zhou Ze brought his men over and saw Wu Yongzhu stuck in the dog hole. "Pull him out!"

"Yes, my lord!" Jin Linwei responded, grabbed Wu Yongzhu's legs and pulled him back hard.

“Ah…” All I could hear was a terrible scream, rising into the sky, “Save me, spare my life!”

Changning Marquis Zhou Ze said to Xu Cheng, the deputy commander of Jinlin Guards: "Commander Xu, we cannot stay here for long. Take him back immediately. His Majesty is waiting. In addition, regarding the poison issue, we also need to interrogate Prince Ning and his accomplices, and many other matters. Your Majesty needs to arrange them."

"Zhou has completed His Majesty's orders, but I am still panicking and feeling nervous. I have to go back to the palace."

The crisis at Changning Marquis' Mansion was temporarily resolved, and he had to go back to take care of family affairs.

Xiao Cui, and Aunt Bai, there has to be a conclusion!

Jinlin Guard Xu Cheng bowed and said, "Thank you for your help, Lord. I will take my leave."

Marquis Changning also bowed in return, "Commander Xu, please persuade His Majesty not to kill these surrendered people. These people are of great use. Let me tell you in detail."

"First, they were also poisoned and forced by King Ning. Second, they must know a lot about King Ning. Third, these people have lived in Jingzhou for many years. Whether it is to eliminate the remnants of King Ning or to fight against Yue in the future, local soldiers who are familiar with the environment will be needed to take the lead."

Xu Cheng's expression froze when he heard this. "Your Majesty is right. I will do my best to persuade Your Majesty. I'll take my leave and see you later."

Xu Cheng sent two more Jinlin guards to escort Marquis Changning back to his mansion.

At this time, the guards of Changning Marquis' Mansion, both open and covert sentry, were all on high alert.

Butler Zhou was holding a dagger in his hand, and the doorman was holding a brick in his hand. They stared at the door with their eyes wide open, not daring to doze off.

That night, the Marquis and the Prince were not in the mansion, so they had to guard the Marquis of Changning's Mansion.

Most of the servants in the mansion are the old people who followed the old Marquis of Changning, and most of the young people are the children of these old people.

They understood that only if the Changning Marquisate was doing well, they would have a good life.

If there is any trouble, they will fight to the death to protect their master.

At this time, Butler Zhou and the doorman heard a sound at the door. They were startled and shouted nervously, "Who is outside? Tell me your name!"

Changning Marquis Zhou Ze was startled when he heard the butler's voice. He hurriedly asked, "Uncle Zhou, it's so late, why don't you sleep?"

"My Lord?" The doorman was excited. He quickly ran to the corner door, opened it, raised the sheep-horn lantern, and looked outside. "Butler, it's really my Lord!"

Butler Zhou also recognized the voice of Marquis Changning and quickly opened the door.

"My Lord, you are here! Others have bullied our Changning Marquisate. My Lord, we absolutely cannot let this go. We cannot vent our anger. Even if I go down there, I will not be able to see you, my Lord!"

Changning Marquis Zhou Ze's expression changed drastically, his eyes were cold, "Uncle Zhou, what happened?"
