Chapter 696: Reward

Madam Jiang carried Wei Xiyue out of the forest and came to the endless official road.

Her strength was exhausted, but she did not dare to stop. She staggered forward and finally encountered the Qin family cavalry who had come to look for her.

Deputy General Zhou hurriedly tightened the reins and got off the horse. He came to Madam Jiang and caught the child in her arms. “Madam Wei!” Madam Jiang’s legs went weak and she almost fell.

Deputy General Zhou hurriedly helped her up. “Give it to me, Madam Wei.”

Madam Jiang had been maintaining the posture of carrying the child, and her arms were already stiff. Deputy General Zhou slowly carried the child over and said to her, “I’ll send someone to send you back.”

Madam Jiang panted weakly. “The… traitor is inside… Hurry up and arrest him…

Deputy General Zhou sent two cavalrymen to escort her back to the Wei family. The rest entered the forest with him according to Madam Jiang’s directions.

However, when they rushed to the crime scene, they only saw a few pools of almost dried blood and the corpses of two secret guards.

“Did you find anything?”

Qin Canglan’s voice suddenly appeared behind her.

Deputy General Zhou turned around and saw Qin Canglan and Su MO riding over. He cupped his hands and bowed. “Marshal, Young Master Su.”

Qin Canglan had already resigned from his position as the general of the world’s army, but the brothers in the military camp were still used to calling him marshal.

He continued to answer, ‘Marshal, from the traces at the event location, there was an intense fight here. Both sides were injured, but… they’re gone.”

Qin Canglan and Su MO got off the horse and carefully surveyed the event location.

Qin Canglan had fought with Ghostfear and the Nanyang King before and knew very well that the two of them fought without caring about their lives. Life and death often happened in an instant. The outcome of a battle might not be determined by one’s martial arts attainment . Any small factor could change the final outcome.

“Did they fight in another place?” Su MO asked.

Qin Canglan squatted down and dipped his fingertip into the blood on the ground. “From the blood loss, one of them was fatally injured. I wonder if it’s

Ghostfear or that guy. If we split up and search, they shouldn’t have gone far.” Soon, Su Xiaoxiao, Wei Ting, and Wei Liulang arrived.

The three of them looked at the blood on the ground with solemn expressions.

“Who was seriously injured? Could that guy have some life-saving methods like MO Guiyuan?”

Su Xiaoxiao found a bottle on the ground. During this period of time, she had studied the letter of the poison master of the Western Jin and recognized that this was the Cultivation Transformation Powder of a death warrior.

Wei Liulang’s expression changed. “Brother… was poisoned by the Cultivation Transformation Powder? Doesn’t that mean…

That guy was already difficult to deal with. Coupled with the effect of the Cultivation Transformation Powder, his brother was doomed!

A cold glint flashed across Wei Ting’s deep eyes. “I want to see him whether he’s dead or alive.”

They followed the blood to a big tree. The blood was gone.

They could only scatter and continue to search.

Qin Canglan mobilized the cavalry, and Wei Ting also returned to the capital to mobilize the imperial guards. He searched from the forest to the mountains for three days and three nights, but he could not find any traces of the two of them.

On the fourth day, just as they were preparing for the worst, Ghostfear appeared.

Wei Liulang hurriedly stood up from under the tree and pounced over to support his shoulder. He sized up him. “Brother?”

Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao also walked towards him.

There was a perforated wound on his shoulder and a few not-so-serious cuts on his body. Su Xiaoxiao brought him to the tree and opened the first aid kit to treat his injuries.

Wei Ting followed over. “Brother, your cultivation…”

Ghostfear said, “I didn’t inhale much Cultivation a Transformation Powder and lost a little strength. I’ll be back after practicing.”

Wei Liulang asked, “King Nanyang…”

Ghost Scar said in a low voice, “He’s dead.’

When everyone heard this, they felt relieved.

They did not feel that that guy died suddenly. After all, the Wei, Qin, and Su families had been immobilized and even pulled Emperor Jing Xuan along. It would be unreasonable if they could not kill that guy.

The battle between them had begun from the beginning of the elimination of the White Lotus Society. The White Lotus Society was the most powerful knife in his hand. With White Lotus Society gone, his wings had been cut off.

Of course, they could not let their guard down. After all, even if he did not succeed in his rebellion, it was more than enough to kill a few people.

Fortunately, everything was finally over.

Wei Liulang took a deep breath and was about to ask his brother how he killed that big bastard. Where had he been for the past three days? He heard Ghostfear say, “Don’t ask anything. Also, don’t call that Nanyang King in the future. Call him Xiao Jun.”

“Xiao… Jun, oh,” Wei Liulang agreed obediently.

The eldest brother was like a father, and the eldest brother’s words carried a bloodline pressure.

Ghostfear took out a bag and handed it to them.

Wei Liulang took it and opened it. When he saw the bright yellow cloth, his eyebrows twitched. “Is this the previous emperor’s edict? Eh? No, it’s blank.” Ghostfear said, “The previous Emperor’s edict was destroyed.”

Xiao Jun had still found the late emperor’s edict before them. Otherwise, he would not have the guts to force a rebellion .

“The secret decree was also destroyed,” Ghostfear said. “I destroyed it myself.”

Wei Liulang said in surprise, “Ah… I’m not surprised by the will and secret decree… But what’s with this blank imperial edict?” There was the seal of the late emperor on it.

“This must be Lord Xiao’s trump card.”

They had neglected a key point previously, which was that there were a total of two secret decrees. First, King Nanyang was established; this was followed by Prince Ruyang. It could be said that from the moment Prince Ruyang was established, King Nanyang’s secret decree was ineffective.

Even if he succeeded in his rebellion, it would still be considered a usurpation of the throne. It would not be legitimate.

If there was this blank imperial edict, it would be different.

Su Xiaoxiao was puzzled. “Since he has this, why didn’t he take it out earlier?”

Ghostfear said, “It was hidden by King Nanyang. Xiao Jun has been looking for it.”

The few of them were stunned and instantly understood.

On the way back, Su Xiaoxiao sat in the carriage while the three brothers rode their horses to the side.

Ghostfear said to Wei Ting, “Find a graveyard. You can see Min’er’s tombstone.”

Wei Ting said, “Okay.”

Wei Ting brought back “Xiao Jun’s” corpse and this matter was settled.

Emperor Jing Xuan did not want to hurt the Empress Dowager’s heart and did not announce to the public that he was King Nanyang. He still maintained that someone had pretended to be him and rebelled.

Wei Ting had no intention of telling him the truth about King Nanyang and Xiao Jun. He had not really surrendered to Emperor Jing Xuan. He was just using Emperor Jing Xuan to deal with Xiao Jun.

This incident could be considered the greatest crisis in the 18 years since Emperor Jing Xuan ascended the throne. He almost lost his life.

After he could get out of bed, he would immediately reward the meritorious officials.

The first credit was Su Cheng.

He had contributed to protecting the emperor and turning the tide, nipping the rebellion of the Imperial Guards in the bud and reducing a large number of casualties.

He was already the Protector Duke, so his title could not be added. Emperor Jing Xuan promoted him to the commander of the Imperial Guards and the deputy commander of the Imperial City..
