After the subjugation of the country, she became the favorite concubine of the enemy

"I will protect you, even if it is death, I will use death to protect you for the last time."

"If you die, I don't live alone."

After Ling Xiche and Shen Chen returned to the inn, the two words they said to each other still lingered in each other's ears, but neither of them wanted to mention it again.

"Xi Che, is the matter about your identity settled?"

"Ah."

Before returning to the inn, they went to the old nanny to confirm again.

The old mother told them that a man who looked about 30 years old came to her and asked about whether Concubine Duanguo Mei was related to the Ling Mansion, and the old mother told her what Shen Chen told her. .

This set of arguments was actually prepared by Ling Xiche. The content of the argument was that there was a cousin lady who lived in Ling's residence earlier. She was the daughter of General Ling's cousin, and her maiden name was Hongmei.

Ling Xiche asked her to tell her that a cousin of General Ling once came to him, saying that he was running out of time and wanted to entrust his daughter to General Ling's care, but General Ling couldn't refuse, so this cousin of the Ling family asked She lived in the Ling Mansion for a while. During that time, she had a good relationship with Miss Ling's family, but then she had a big fight with General Ling for some reason. She left the Ling Mansion by herself that night, and never heard of it again told her news.

Shen Chen was a little worried, and asked again, "Do you think they will believe this kind of rhetoric?"

"I think so."

"Then if they go to someone else to check again, wouldn't they just go through the gang?"

Ling Xiche shook his head, "All the men in the Ling Mansion went out with me back then, and no one should have come back alive. As for the maidservants, I heard that most of them committed suicide on the day I went out to fight the final battle. I Ling There are only a few people left in the mansion, and it is not easy to find another one."

Shen Chen originally wanted to say sorry, but he said that he didn't want to hear himself say sorry again, so he didn't say it, but just put his arms around his shoulders.

Ling Xiche turned to look at him, his eyes were a little red.

"You said, why is it so cruel?"

"If you are not cruel, how can you call it a battlefield, and how can you call it a human world."

Ling Xiche smiled with tears in his eyes, "The battle for the position, blood flowed like a river, the battle for the land, corpses littered the field. Why, must it be like this?"

Shen Chen also said in a low voice, "As long as there is still the spirit of competition, these are inevitable. Only when the world is unified one day can we avoid the battles that will continue in the future."

Ling Xiche suddenly said playfully, "No, apart from the human world, there are also competitions in other worlds, but the battle for the reserve position is very harmonious. The bloodshed was the most when Tianjun Moyue seized the throne, but in fact it was also Just executed a few royal family members, demoted some courtiers, and did not hurt innocent people. Just like this, it is already the bloodiest battle for succession in the heaven. There were countless casualties in the Great War of Immortals, but there have been only two great battles in the Three Realms since 10,000+ years ago, don’t you think it’s already too harmonious and friendly compared to the human world?”

Shen Chen was a little helpless, the gloomy atmosphere just now seemed to be swept away by Ling Xiche's words.

"Xi Che, you still have the heart to joke around."

"How can I laugh?"

"Can myths and legends be compared with reality? If myths are half as cruel as reality, they won't be called myths."

"You don't believe these things are falling down." Ling Xiche rested his elbows on his knees, resting his chin and said, "In my next life, I want to cultivate immortality. I don't want to be in the world again. I really don't want to go through these things again. Tactics, conspiracy, these things Whoever likes to play around, I don't want it anymore."

Shen Chen stroked the head of Ling Xiche, who looked a little cute at the moment, "If there is really a next life, I would like to be born in the mythical world you like, and see if it is as good as you said."

Ling Xiche patted his hand away, didn't want to talk to him, and went to bed.

The next day, Shen Chen and Ling Xiche returned to the palace together.

Shen Chen was discussing matters with several important court officials in the Imperial Study Room, while Ling Xiche was waiting in the side room, and only after they left after chatting, Ling Xiche walked over.

Shen Chen took out a map and unfolded it in front of Ling Xiche.

"Xi Che, this is what you want to see."

"Very good." Ling Xiche said while looking at the map.

Since Zhaoguo has been building nets in Duanguo's territory for a long time, trying to use these nets to finally control Duanguo, the opponents have already attacked, and it is impossible to do nothing.

An attack is a good defense.

There are also spies from Duan State in Zhao State. Duan State's spies will also regularly report on Zhao State's big moves and Yu Chirui's developments.

Shen Chen told Ling Xiche last night that Zhao Kingdom recently built three granaries on the outskirts of the imperial city. Yu Chirui attached great importance to them and had already visited two of them in person. Only the recently repaired one had not yet been visited.

"Is this the location of the three granaries?" Ling Xiche asked looking at the map.

Seeing Ling Xiche's puzzled expression, Shen Chen said, "Yes. What's the matter? Is there a problem?"

Ling Xiche pointed to the roads next to the three granaries, "Look at the location where the granary was built, and these three roads, don't you see anything?"

Shen Chen also looked over again.

"These three roads...are the three backbones of Zhao Kingdom's transportation."

Ling Xiche nodded appreciatively, and said, "Very well, you continue to talk about it."

"What next?"

"What else can you see?"

Shen Chen rested his chin and thought, "Is there any problem? It is built on the three main roads. If you need to use the stored food, it will be convenient for transportation. Is there any problem?"

Ling Xiche pointed to one of the granaries, "Look at this."

"What's wrong with this?" Shen Chen was puzzled.

Ling Xiche replied, "Although this granary is also on the main road, the terrain here is low-lying. If it rains, it will easily accumulate water and become damp, which is not conducive to the storage of grain."

Shen Chen suddenly realized, "Yes, this place is not suitable for building a granary."

Ling Xiche nodded, "Yes. It is not suitable for building a granary here, but it is one of the three main roads of Zhao Kingdom. As you just said, it is convenient for transportation."

Shen Chen looked at Ling Xiche, "So, Xi Che, what you mean is that their granary is a cover-up. In fact, the granary is not filled with food?"

Ling Xiche said shallowly, "If it's just an ordinary granary, there's no need for Yu Chirui to go and see it one by one. Since he attaches so much importance to it, the things hidden in it must be very important. The emperor can go to see it in person, and it must be related to the country. Book."

"you mean......"

"Weapons. If my guess is correct, it should be a batch of sophisticated weapons."

Shen Chen seemed to be a little bit overwhelmed, Ling Xiche went over and held his face with both hands.

"Chen'er, don't be naive. It's an illusion that Yu Chirui doesn't pay attention to military affairs, and it's just used to deceive you. Be careful, don't be deceived again."

"Is this like this?"

Ling Xiche still holds his face in his hands, "That's right! You, Shen Chen, you are courageous, resourceful and courageous, and you are not bad. If you meet a slightly weaker opponent, I don't worry about you at all. You can dominate the world, but your opponent is really not weak! In terms of strategy, Yu Chirui is really superior to you, you trust me, otherwise you will really suffer a lot in the future!"

After the events of the past few days, now Shen Chen really couldn't deny Zhaoguo's strength with confidence, so he said, "Then what should we do next? Arrange people to do sabotage?"

Ling Xiche let go of his hand at this moment, and took a few steps to think, "Since Yu Chirui attaches so much importance to it, there must always be guards nearby. I'm afraid it's not so easy to destroy it. Even if the rocket can be used from a long distance, Weapons are not flammable, and there are rivers near these three locations."

"Then how do we do it?"

Ling Xiche thought for a while, then turned around and asked, "Shen Chen, do you want revenge?"

"Vengeance for what?"

"The sword you took."

"You, you want to assassinate Yu Chirui! Xi Che, you have to know that if I hadn't withdrawn all the guards nearby that night, even if there were ten more shadow guards, it would be impossible to assassinate the emperor."

Ling Xiche blinked at Shen Chen, "Of course I know it's impossible to go into the palace and assassinate him."

"Then what are you going to do?"

Ling Xiche walked back to the map and pointed to the granary that Yu Chirui hadn't been to yet.

"Since he has visited the first two, I guess he will go to this one too. It must not be done by the granary, because there must be guards near the granary, and we have to choose to do it on the road." He said and pointed. Refers to an intersection near the granary, "For example, here, this is the only way from the imperial palace to this granary."

Shen Chen also said, "If you go out quietly, the guards around you will relax, but that Gao Yun will definitely follow him, Gao Yun's skills are still good."

Ling Xiche smiled, "Then let's send more shadow guards. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss it, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity in the future. If you can kill him, that's great. There are no heirs yet, and there are no outstanding talents in Zhaoguo's clan. If he dies, Zhaoguo will not be afraid in the future. But even if he can't be killed this time, he must be hurt and let him know Duan Guo is not stupid enough to let him manipulate him."

Zhao country.

Zhao Jihe got up in the morning and went to see Yu Chirui in his bedroom, and found that he had also got up.

"Huh? Why are you up so early?"

Yu Chirui looked outside, the sun was already high.

"Where is it early?"

Zhao Jihe walked over to support him, "You are not in good health, you need to rest more."

Yu Chirui pushed his hand away, "I've been resting for so many days, I'm fine now."

Zhao Jihe felt a little wronged.He is so indifferent, he has been ignoring himself for a few days, when will he be so cold these days!

Zhao Jihe walked to his side, and he took two steps without a trace, moving a little away from him.

"Are you still angry with me? I was really dazzled by your beauty that day, so I offended you. I really know I was wrong. I promise I won't do it again."

Yu Chirui squinted at him with his beautiful Danfeng eyes, "Enough is enough, stop talking."

Zhao Jihe looked at him with teary eyes, "Well, let's not talk about it."

Yu Chirui walked a few steps with his back to Zhao Jihe, stopped in his tracks, and said to him, "Come here too, I'm going out of the palace today and go to another warehouse to have a look."

Hearing this, Zhao Jihe immediately put on a smiling face and followed, "Is it still a warehouse for weapons? How many have you repaired in total?"

"There are three main transportation roads in my Zhao country, so I only built three in total, and this one is the last one today."

"Uh-huh!"

Along the way, Yu Chirui leaned against the carriage and closed his eyes to rest, while Zhao Jihe sat obediently beside him and did not bother him.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and the sound of a sharp sword being unsheathed came from outside, and Yu Chirui opened his eyes.

Gao Yun said outside, His Majesty, be careful, and then there was the sound of fighting outside.

Without hesitation, Yu Chirui took Zhao Jihe's hand and jumped out of the carriage, took out a short blade that he carried with him and held it in his hand.

Zhao Jihe's mind went blank. Looking at several masked men in black outside, he didn't know what to do, so he could only hold Yu Chirui's hand.

Although Gao Yun had the upper hand, he couldn't stop everyone at once. An assassin charged at Yu Chirui with a knife in his hand. Yu Chirui raised the short blade to block it, and protected Zhao Jihe behind him.

It wasn't long before Yu Chirui took action, and it was obvious that his physical strength was weak. In addition, he had to protect Zhao Jihe. One of them was stabbed in the forearm without paying attention, and his movements froze. He was kicked by the assassin and fell to the ground. on the ground.

Zhao Jihe quickly helped him up, "Yu Chirui, how are you? Are you okay?"

The assassin raised his sword and stabbed again, Zhao Jihe couldn't do anything, closed his eyes and opened his hands to block Yu Chirui.Seeing that he was about to block the knife for himself, Yu Chirui pulled him into his arms, and turned sideways to change an angle.
