The clothes on his shoulders were blood red, obviously the opponent had cut the skin on his neck with a sharp knife.

This is a warning.

"Is there really no change?" Cao Chao asked again

"No, really not!"

"Hey! I wanted to have a good talk with you, why do you have to force me to kill you?"

Cao Chao sighed and pretended to kill someone.

"No! I am Zhu Guo of Zhao State, you can't kill me, please don't kill me!"

Seeing that the other party was coming for real, Han Xiang was so anxious that he was about to cry, and begged for mercy.

"What I said is true, there really hasn't been any changes recently!

"Since my Great Zhao has experienced the Battle of Changping and the Battle of Handan in succession more than ten years ago, the national strength has been greatly consumed, so I have always pursued the national policy of recuperating and recuperating.

"During the early morning court the day before yesterday, the king repeatedly emphasized the need to rest and recuperate, and not to lightly start a war."

After Cao Chao listened, he smacked his mouth.

It seems that Han Xiang's rank is too low, so he has no access to the most confidential information.

"By the way, in terms of changes, Zhao Sheng and Wei Wuji visited Lian Po recently."

Perhaps because he was afraid that the other party would be dissatisfied, Han Xiang spoke out all the information he knew, regardless of the size of the matter.

"Lian Po?"

"exactly!"

Seeing that the other party was interested, Han Xiang hurriedly continued:

"Since the battle of Changping was replaced by the king, Lian Po thought that Zhao Sheng, as the prime minister, could not dissuade the king from changing generals, which led to such a big defeat, so he had a cold relationship with Zhao Sheng.

"But for some reason, Zhao Sheng took Mr. Xinling to Lian Po's mansion recently, saying that he wanted to congratulate Lian Po's son on getting married."

"interesting!"

After hearing this, Cao Chao smiled.

Previously, he had only guessed whether the change in Guiguzi's mouth referred to the joint verticality initiated by Chunshen Jun of Chu State.

Now it seems that the Six Kingdoms did intend to join forces, but it is not necessarily only Lord Chunshen who promoted this alliance, but it is very likely that Lord Pingyuan and Lord Xinling made joint efforts.

No wonder Luo Wang wanted to send the startled salamander to assassinate Mr. Ping Yuan.

Of the four princes of the Warring States Period, none of them is a simple character!

Thinking so, Cao Chao put a hand on Han Xiang's shoulder.

"Old Han, your situation is very dangerous!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Han Xiang hurriedly responded, but his heart was filled with slander.

Aren't you the biggest danger for me?

Cao Chao ignored Han Xiang's reaction and said directly:

"As Zhu Kingdom, you shoulder the heavy responsibility of guarding the capital, and now that Zhao Sheng is assassinated, you are in the most trouble.

"If I were Zhao Sheng, I would pretend to be seriously injured to force King Zhao.

"In this case, King Zhao will definitely order you to find out the real culprit within a time limit, when the time comes...

"Hehe, are you sure you can catch the real culprit?"

"This……"

Han Xiang broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this.

I have to say that what Cao Chao said is indeed reasonable.

If he was Zhao Sheng, he would definitely make a big fuss about this and get rid of him as a city guard.

After all, in court, he and Zhao Sheng were enemies rather than friends.

Just when Han Xiang was burning with anxiety, Cao Chao's voice came from behind him.

"Now I have a way to clear you of the suspicion, it depends on whether you are willing or not."

……

In the dense forest ten miles outside Handan City, a butterfly struggled desperately on a spider web, completely unaware of the approaching death.

The long and narrow sword stood upright, filled with scarlet light.

Under the ghost tooth mask is a burly figure.

He was wearing heavy armor, and he exuded a cold and murderous aura, which made people tremble.

He is the first-class swordsman in Luowangtianzi, covering the sun!

The trees rustled, and a figure flickered.

"My lord, the Black Tiger Hall has been wiped out."

A black shadow appeared, and instantly knelt down in front of the sun.

"Did you find out who did it?"

"The subordinates are incompetent and have not been found yet."

After covering the sun and listening, he frowned.

Although there are spies all over the Seven Kingdoms, not all information can be found.

Especially the matter of this main investigation involves the core secrets of various countries, which can be described as extremely difficult.

Now the black tiger hall is missing, which makes Luo Wang's actions in Zhao country difficult.

But at the next moment, the corners of Zheri's mouth turned up slightly, and a chuckle came out from the ghost tooth mask.

"Since the Black Tiger Hall is gone, I'll go find the person behind him."

"Does he think he can hide from me by hiding behind the scenes?"

"Innocent!"

……

In Handan City, night shrouded the whole city.

There is still half an hour before dawn, and this is the darkest time between heaven and earth.

Even the noisy Baihualou had turned off the lights and fell into an eerie silence.

The night wind blew through the screen window, and a figure quietly appeared in Jing Xi's boudoir.

He slowly came to the bedside of the startled salamander.

Suddenly, a pink sword energy flashed, and the sword pointed at the person coming.

Now I finally saw clearly the face of the person who came, it was Cao Chao.

"it's me"

Cao Chao said unluckily to himself.

Originally, he wanted to sneak onto the bed of the startled salamander, but he was discovered by the other party.

But whoever he is Cao, even if he is caught, he doesn't panic.

When chasing girls, you have to be bold, careful and thick-skinned.

It's not shabby.

"Ok?"

He stretched out a finger, intending to gently move the tip of the sword in front of him, but he couldn't move it no matter what.

At this moment, the startled salamander looked at Cao Chao calmly with cold eyes, without speaking, obviously waiting for his explanation.

Women are not only cold in appearance, but also cold in temperament, and they don't like to talk.

Seeing this scene, Cao Chao quickly swallowed back the witty words that were on the verge of his lips.

If he speaks unrestrainedly and annoys the startled salamander, I'm afraid the other party will really stab him with a sword.

This is a purple rose with thorns.

But I like it!

Cao Chao began to look forward to the future.

It seems that I am not only going to be a fisherman, but also a flower farmer.

However, the symbiosis of fish and vegetables is also reasonable.

Chapter 12 Encounter with the Iceberg Beauty

"The sun is coming."

Just when the atmosphere was about to freeze, Cao Chao said suddenly.

This is the news he just got from Han Xiangna.

As soon as the words fell, he clearly noticed that the startled salamander became tense.

"Don't worry, I already have a way to deal with him."

"any solution?"

The startled salamander finally spoke.

However, Cao Chao didn't say a word, just walked straight.

"Ok?"

This move really startled the salamander, because this guy actually ignored her long sword.

Seeing that the opponent's neck was only a few inches away from the sword tip, and that even if he took another half step forward, his throat would be pierced, the startled salamander quickly put away the long sword in his hand.
