After being reborn, she became the richest man without being a queen

Chapter 143
Yang Tu turned pale with shock, and he couldn't help asking: "What is the intention of the King of Beiliang? He lured wolves into the house, so what good can he do?"

Shen Qingling sighed, and said: "Once the war in the northern border is over, what is the value of the King of Beiliang? Not to mention that the annual military expenditure will be wasted, even the soldiers he has will be reduced."

The map is very sloppy, but it has everything that should be there. People with a discerning eye can easily see the danger of a few shallow strokes on the map.

If there are really Khitans crossing the northern border in disguise...

Yang Tu, who was lost in thought, only felt creepy.

"Vice General Yang, we don't have much time." Shen Qingling reminded Tu Yang aloud, "The purpose of Li Youyu colluding with the single group is to go to Beijing to kill the lord, and once we return to Yongguan with the single group of soldiers, she It is very likely that you will get wind of it and act in advance."

Or, leaving Yongguan is already in danger.

"Now that you have killed Shan Qun, what do you want to do next? Qiu Po's life is given by Shan Qun. If you let him know that Shan Qun was killed by you, there is no guarantee that he will not bite you back." Yang Tu asked.

Shen Qingling pulled her hands away, straightened up, and said: "It was the death of the Khitan people who assassinated General Shan, didn't it? What we have to do now is to send a letter to Bianjing on the one hand, and track down the death of the Khitan people on the other hand. That's it. , follow the clues to find out the Yongguan, and it will be a matter of course."

That night, the Jinyun government office was on fire.

The flames shot straight into the sky, illuminating most of the night sky.

Lieutenant General Yang Tu was woken up from his sleep, he didn't even bother to put on his outer robe, so he hurried to the fire point together with his fellow robe Qiu Mi.

"What's going on? How did the fire start?" Under the thick smoke, Qiu Kai raised his sleeve to cover his mouth and nose, and held a bucket in the other hand, fighting the fire with the people around him, "Didn't the general come to the government office to discuss matters? Woolen cloth?"

Di Yun looked as if he had just been rescued, with a disheveled face and bruises all over his body.

He coughed violently and shouted with tears in his eyes: "Miss Shen Er is still inside! I don't know why it caught fire. She talked with the general all night. I was a little sleepy, so I sat at the gate of the courtyard and fell asleep. Misty I vaguely heard someone calling an assassin, and when I woke up, the fire would already be raging."

As he said that, Di Yun wanted to get up and throw himself into the fire.

But where is his strength?After walking two steps, he fell limply on the ground and was helped up by the guards at the side.

When Qiu Min heard that the general was still in the fire, he poured the bucket down without saying a word, and then rushed into the fire alone in spite of everyone's dissuasion.

"General!"

"General!"

The flames were raging, and it didn't take long for the water on Qiu's body to be licked clean by the fire.

Fortunately, the government office compound is very spacious, even though the surrounding fire is extremely strong, there is nothing combustible in this courtyard, although it is hot, there is no need to worry about the roof tiles collapsing or the flames spreading.

While running, Qiu Bo vaguely saw movement in the ruins of the gazebo ahead.

Qiu Mo, who didn't care about so many people, hurried over, only to find a petite and dainty lady lying under the stone wall.Seeing him, the little lady burst into tears, shouting that the assassin killed the general, and the assassin killed the general.

killed……

General?

Qiu Min's eyes darkened, and he almost couldn't stand up.

However, at this moment, the hall of the government office in the distance collapsed suddenly, and the flames seemed to rush forward.Qiu Mo didn't have time to think about it, so she dragged the little lady out hastily.

In a hurry, Qiu Mo couldn't even determine whether the little lady was dead or alive, and of course he didn't notice the sparkling eyes of the little lady.

It turned out to be a sleepless night.

The people of Jinyun County and the soldiers stationed there put out the fire in a timely manner, but no matter how timely it was, it would be difficult to save the life of General Shanqun who was murdered at this moment.

Qiu Mo was so sad that she sat alone outside the tent and wept.

Di Yun guarded Shen Qingling in the name of night watch, but after the rest of the people were gone, he lowered his voice in surprise and anger and said: "Second lady, you are taking too much risk, if he doesn't save you, Aren't you going to be buried in the sea of ​​flames?!"

When the fire started, Di Yun didn't even have time to say a word to Shen Qingling.

Where had he seen such a resolute little lady before, and of course he had never seen such a person who didn't take his own life seriously.

"Di Yun, I don't have time to gain Qiu's trust." Shen Qingling blinked her eyes, and said in her hoarse voice from the flames: "This is the best way. If you are worried about Shan Qun, you will definitely arrive as soon as possible. If he doesn’t save me, Tu Yang will come to save me.”

Indeed, Yang Tu and Shen Qingling had discussed it.

If Qiu Min failed to bring Shen Qingling out from the fire scene, then Yang Tu would rush in and bring Shen Qingling out.At that time Shen Qingling was hiding in a temporarily safe place, no matter how big the fire was, it wouldn't be able to burn her in a while, at most she would choke on some smoke.

At this moment, Yang Tu walked out of the camp slowly, and the turmoil in his heart could not be calmed down for a long time.

Just as Di Yun thought, Yang Tu couldn't accept that a little lady could be so cruel, no matter to the enemy or to himself.When Yang Tu heard about Shen Qingling's terrifying plan, Yang Tu even wondered whether the woman in front of him was a weak and bully woman.

And in fact-

She really does.

And flawless.

Even if Qiu Min suspected Shan Qun's death, he might not be able to connect it with Shen Qingling who was caught in the fire. After all, no one had ever heard of setting up a trap to put his own life in it.

"Qiu Mian..." Shan Qun reached out and patted Qiu Mian's shoulder, "Second Lady Shen said that the assassin was a Khitan, you said... how did the Khitan get to Jinyun?"

Boom!
An angry Qiu Kai kicked away the stone in front of him, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid the Khitan dog thief doesn't want the general to return to the capital. If the general returns to Bianjing, then the situation in the capital will be more stable, and the northern border will naturally have no worries." .”

Wrong wrong.

Yang Tu hurriedly quoted the words to Chuyong Pass, "I heard from Second Lady Shen that the general was very worried about leaving Yongguan at night. In my opinion, we have to go to Chuyong Pass to check if the matter is not guaranteed."

"Out of Yongguan?" Qiu Min turned his head to look at Yang Tu.

"En." Yang Tu nodded, and said, "How long has the general been out, why did he mention leaving Yongguan for no reason? Presumably he must have discovered something, or because of this he provoked the Khitan people's ideas. Only people will send assassins to kill them and set them on fire."

Hearing Yang Tu's analysis, Qiu Min couldn't help clenching his fists, "What you said makes sense. But, that Second Lady Shen just woke up? I'll go see her."

Hearing this, Yang Tu hurriedly said: "Then I'll go to the government office to have a look. If I find the general, I'll notify you immediately."

The two separated.

Taking advantage of Qiu Min's time to find Shen Qingling, Yang Tu had to go to the government office to dispose of Shan Qun's corpses. It would be best to make it difficult for others to recognize the identity of the perpetrator while hiding clues.
