I, make my own

Chapter 39 The Fate of the Chess Pieces

"Young master, those heavy armors have been robbed..."

Xia Ze whispered, his scalp was a little tense.

However, the expected reprimand did not come, what was heard was a rather calm question instead.

"Oh? But it was robbed by He Yan?"

Xia Ze's eyes widened slightly, and he looked at Zhou Xin who was not surprised at all.

"How does the young master know?"

As soon as the words came out, Xia Ze realized something was wrong again, and quickly lowered his head to answer.

"Young Master Hui, it is true that He Yan led the elite patrolling army to rob..."

"Hehe, that guy Zhou Lan has been beaten up many times in my hands, and this time he is bleeding heavily. It's no wonder he doesn't hold a grudge and is secretly tripping him up."

Zhou Xin said with a calm smile, as if he was not in a hurry.

"As for why he came to He Yan, it's also reasonable. After all, he would feel disadvantaged if he gave that batch of goods to anyone, but he could feel a little better if he gave it to He Yan. After all, the general's department is too weak now... ..."

A flash of anger flashed in Xia Ze's eyes, he gritted his teeth and said, "It really is that guy! Young master, he dared to play tricks secretly, so he simply killed him!"

"Remember, you are now the deputy owner of Tianji Building, so don't be impulsive in everything."

Zhou Xin glared at Xia Ze, both reprimanding and teaching.

"Zhou Lan is still useful, this is not the time to take his life."

"What's more, his taking this step was also planned by me. Otherwise, I have a lot of ways to weaken the hatred in his heart and ensure the smooth progress of the transaction."

Xia Ze couldn't help but bewildered, what does the young master mean by this?
After finally getting a batch of precious weapons, why...

Suddenly, Xia Ze's eyes lit up, and he said in amazement: "Your master prepared those heavy armors for trapping the camp?"

Zhou Xin smiled approvingly, nodded and said, "Not bad."

"Things must not be kept in Tianjilou's hands forever. Even if Zhou Lan didn't take this step, I will find another way."

"After all, once the camp is born in the future, it will be easy for people to doubt the relationship between Tianjilou and the emperor."

"But the things cannot be obtained by Zhu Gaoyang and others. That may make the old and cunning people guess that the emperor has other powers lurking in the dark, and it will make them alert and vigilant."

"So, it is the best result for things to be robbed by He Yan."

Zhou Xin did not call himself Zhen, and Xia Ze was not allowed to call him His Majesty when using the identity of Mr. Yan.

This is also to form a habit to avoid when you accidentally say something.

Xia Ze suddenly realized, and at the same time secretly admired and awed in his heart.

His Majesty's mind and methods are really amazing. If His Majesty hadn't said it himself, he would never have imagined that there were so many schemes hidden behind the robbery of an armament.

After taking a deep breath, Xia Ze's eyes showed a hint of worry again.

"But son, He Yan belongs to the general, even if the general is dead now, he may not be sincerely loyal to you, if..."

Zhou Xin shook his head, and said calmly: "He will be honest. As for the future, He Yan is Hu Zhizhuo's diehard loyalist, and he will have to pay some price after all."

What Zhou Xin said was a little vague, but Xia Ze understood the hidden meaning in the words.

The word "die loyal" has actually sentenced He Yan to death.

As for what will happen to He Yan's relatives, it most likely depends on He Yan's behavior and His Majesty's mood...

"My lord, there is one more thing. I just received news from Qingque that the two palace masters of the Jing'an Division are leading dozens of elite confidants here."

Qingque refers to Zhu Gaoyang, the head of Jing'an Department, and Huangque refers to Bai Wudang, the owner of Huangquan Pavilion.

"Hehe, since they are so anxious to reincarnate, let them be satisfied, so that Jing'an can return to Qingming."

Zhou Xin smiled casually, and looked sideways at Li Sanyuan.

"It's up to you later, just be quicker."

"Don't worry, son!"

Li Sanyuan's eyes lit up when he was a little bored, and he twisted his neck and made a crisp bang sound.

The conversation between the two was not hidden from him, he was a little confused and didn't quite understand.

He didn't understand, and he didn't bother to think about it.

……

"Jing'an Division is on a mission, and the idlers leave as soon as possible!"

In the lively and charming atmosphere, with a loud shout, the surrounding waterside pavilions and corridors suddenly fell silent.

When they saw dozens of imposing men in uniforms of the Jing An Division rushing towards them, those drunken drinkers who took advantage of the opportunity to fight were shocked instantly, and then fled away with the panic-stricken Jiu Ji.

Within a few tens of breaths of time, there were almost no other figures in the hundred-foot range centered on Jiasan Water Pavilion.

On a seven-story attic hundreds of feet away, Shang Kewan was standing in front of the window watching this scene with great interest.

Behind Shang Kewan, there were three other people standing respectfully with their hands tied.

"Master Yan, this Young Master Yan is not worthy of his name at all. The people from Jing'an Division have all killed them, and he has not received any news yet."

"That's right, I don't even know that I'm being targeted and I'm about to be captured and killed, and I still claim to know everything, heh, what a joke!"

Two of them spoke one after another, their eyes full of disdain.

But the third person frowned and put forward a different opinion.

"Young Master Yan's intelligence capabilities have been proven before, so I don't think there is anything to question."

"Looking at these Jing'an guards, they are obviously elite, and there are two palace masters leading the team personally, which shows a possibility."

"That is: Jing'an Division is also aware of Mr. Yan's intelligence capabilities, so in order not to let the news leak, he deliberately selected a small number of loyal and trustworthy elites to dispatch, in order to catch them all!"

"If not, if it is really to ensure safety, the Jing'an Division should send out a large number of people to siege them layer by layer."

Hearing this person's analysis, the first two people frowned, apparently still disagreeing.

At this time, Shang Kewan smiled lightly, and said meaningfully: "How do you know that Mr. Yan never received the news?"

The three couldn't help being taken aback, and one of them was puzzled and said, "If he had received the news, why would he continue to stay there?"

"Why did he escape?"

Shang Kewan looked back at the three of them, her eyes were a little strange.

"You don't always think that you can capture Mr. Yan with those crooked melons and split dates, do you?"

The three of them looked at each other, and some looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Master, is it possible that Mr. Yan is also a strong man?"

"He, my leader can't see the depth."

Shang Kewan squinted her eyes and shook her head, "However, there is a person behind him, and even the leader of this sect has some palpitations..."

Hearing this, the three of them couldn't help but change their expressions.

Because only they know how powerful their leader is!

"So, what the leader means is that he waited there on purpose?"

"But why?"

Shang Kewan shook her head again, her eyes were a little misty.

"This is what the leader of the church can't figure out..."

"That guy is full of weirdness everywhere, like his reward is a demon, or his trick of playing hard to get, or his real intention."

"He, my leader can't figure it out..."

……

After arranging the elite under his command to block the four corridors of Jiasan Water Pavilion, Xu Mingyuan and Sun Qilan looked at each other, and the former sneered and shouted loudly.

"Young Master Yan, you will definitely not be able to escape today! You'd better come out and just tie your hands up!"

"Squeak~"

With a soft sound, the door of the waterside pavilion was opened, and Li Sanyuan stepped out slowly holding a ghost-headed black stick.

Looking at Li Sanyuan, who was dressed in black, had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and was quite thin, Xu Mingyuan's eyes showed suspicion.

"You are Mr. Yan?"

"It's not him! It should be the master guarding Mr. Yan."

Sun Qilan shook her head and vetoed, then gave a cold drink.

"kill him!"

Hearing the order, the dozen or so masters of the Jing'an Division behind the two of them immediately moved.

Three of them aimed and fired with black-level sharp crossbows, and the three quickly assembled the ground-level mechanism heavy crossbows, while the remaining six rushed forward with swords and shields.

As for Xu Mingyuan and Sun Qilan, they just stood aside and watched coldly.

These nearly 40 people are the elite confidantes of the two of them in the Jing'an Division, 36 of them are masters of the sixth and seventh ranks, and three early masters of the eighth rank are guarding the other three sides.

According to the skillful cooperation of the 12-man team and the support of the heavy crossbow at the prefecture level, even the late eighth-rank masters will be in a hurry.

If the opponent is an early-stage Ninth-Rank strongman, then they can gather everyone together, and with the two of them personally attacking, they can also win!
As for the mid-ninth stage or stronger, they hadn't thought about it, because they didn't believe that there would be such a strong person by Mr. Yan's side.

After all, the ninth-rank powerhouse is not a Chinese cabbage.

On the bright side, there are only eight or nine rank-[-] powerhouses directly under the imperial court, and most of them are in high positions.

For example, Cheng Long, the commander of the imperial guards, the late general Hu Zhizhuo, the former General Yingyang Gu Zhao, the former head of the Jing'an Department Zhao Dongchang, the Zhijinwu He Yan, and the head of the Jing'an Department's middle hall, etc.

As eighth-rank late-stage masters, the two of them are already quite strong existences.

However, when Li Sanyuan raised the black stick in his hand, when he fired five times in a row and a total of fifteen arrows were easily knocked away by the black stick, Xu Mingyuan and Sun Qilan's expressions changed drastically in an instant, and they could no longer maintain their composure.

"Assemble!"

Sun Qilan was the first to react and shouted loudly.

The masters of the Jing'an Division in the other three directions moved hastily. At this time, the half-foot-long, forearm-thin, and shining golden light shot by the ground-level heavy crossbow also quickly arrived at Li Sanyuan's body. chest.

Seeing that Li Sanyuan didn't use a black stick to stop him, Xu Mingyuan and Sun Qilan couldn't help being surprised and delighted, thinking that the other party was suddenly dumbfounded.

But as soon as the joy appeared in his eyes, he froze again in the next moment, and turned into deep horror.

Because, the crossbow arrow that the strong at the beginning of the ninth rank could only dodge when they saw it, was pinched tightly by Li Sanyuan's left hand at this moment!
Facing the horrified eyes of the two, Li Sanyuan turned his head and grinned, then threw the crossbow in his hand forward fiercely.

Among the six people rushing forward, the three on the left froze suddenly. When they looked down with difficulty, they discovered that there was a round bloody hole in their left chest.

Before the three people on the right had time to figure out what happened, they suddenly lost sight of Li Sanyuan. The next moment they felt a sharp pain in their head, and then completely lost consciousness.
