On this morning, taking advantage of the coolness, several new and old princes started three skirmishes on the ruins of the Dragon Court, and the soldiers under the command of King Yao Tuosai won one of them, which made him extremely excited.

"You two are smart and are on my side first. He said to the Lady and the Dragon King, who had been invited to share the fruits of the victory, and listened patiently to Tosai's description of the glorious prospects, "Tomorrow, the Servants will go to war against the King of the Holy Sayings, and the King of the Saints will be defeated, oh, don't ask me why, I just know, and then the Grand Lieutenant will hand over the army to me, and in less than ten days, I will be able to inherit the throne." You have done nothing, but I will not forget your loyalty in the first place. Xiao Yan, you will get the priority of pasture allocation, the number of cavalry will be doubled, all the nobles of the North Court, whoever you want to marry, I will let you get your wish, only one point, you have to give up your current title. ”

Xiao Yan smiled so sincerely and happily, as if Tosai's promise far exceeded her expectations, "In vain, I think my face is really thick enough." ”

"Choosing the right side is a credit. Tosai turned to Gu Shenwei, "As for the Dragon King, to be honest, I prefer you who are unconscious, do you think that the Grand Captain is more powerful?" But you have forgotten one thing, he will never inherit the throne, as the commander of the close army, it is his oath to give up the battle for the throne in public, and he can only choose the strongest one among the kings, that is, me. ”

"The weaker side will inevitably bet around. Gu Shenwei did not deny that he was no longer interested in gaining Tosai's trust.

"Well, that's when the winner was undecided, and now you still have to bet on both sides?"

Gu Shenwei shook his head, "No, I decided to choose the most promising side. ”

Xiao Yan pursed his lips and smiled, and Tosai sneered, "Unfortunately, due to your half-heartedness, all the previous bets have been voided, and you have to prove your loyalty to me again." ”

"I'm glad to do it, but I don't know how to do it. The more respectful the Dragon King's attitude was, the more subtle Xiao Yan's smile became, as if he was fascinated by watching a play, and he had to hum a few words along with it.

Torsai raised his head, which was a very favorite action he liked now, and pretended to think for a while, "You also heard, the head of the old Khan King was taken away by the assassins, needless to say, this is someone who wants to ask for merit from the Central Plains." If the head appeared in the Central Plains, not only would the body of the old Khan King not be buried, but the entire Beiting would also suffer a great humiliation. ”

Tosai frowned, as if he had become the King of Khan and was bearing the shame of the North Court alone, "This must not be allowed to happen, if you find your head, you can erase the past infidelity, and I will also give you a credit." Although the Western Regions are small, there are many troubles, and I really need someone to help me govern them. ”

Instead of saying anything, Tossey gave an obvious hint, paused, and asked unnecessarily, "You know what I mean, don't you?"

Gu Shenwei nodded, indicating that he understood, "But it's already the sixth day, and I'm afraid the assassin has already run hundreds of miles with his head." ”

"It depends on the luck of the dragon king, the first day was a bit chaotic, if the assassin escaped, no one could stop him, but from the second day, all sides were collecting labor, and I believe that no adult man escaped from the dragon court again. ”

Since an assassin could take away the head of the old Khan King without knowing it, and wanted to escape from the dragon court in the melee, it would naturally not be too difficult, Gu Shenwei did not point out this obvious problem, because King Yao was giving him an obvious problem.

"My luck has always been good, and with the protection of King Yao, it will only be better. ”

"This is no joke. Tosai held the hilt of the sword, he was the only person in the tent with weapons, Gu Shenwei's sword could only be left outside, "The military order is like a mountain, we have to set a time and responsibility." ”

"For ten days, I couldn't get back the head of the old Khan, so I sent my own head. ”

Tosai let go of the handle of the knife and opened his palm to the Dragon King, "Five days." ”

On the way back to the camp, Xiao Yan withdrew his entourage and spoke alone with the Dragon King, "I didn't expect Tosai's jealousy to be so strong, do you want Luo Ning Tea to help?"

"That only makes Tosai hate me to the bone. ”

"Yes. Xiao Yan smiled, and then said, "The head of the old Khan King is more important than what Tosai said, the Dragon King should know, right?"

"Well, I heard that a large number of soldiers in the army and many people in the palace hope that the old Khan can be properly buried, and even let out the words, which Khan prince can find his head, he will support whoever succeeds to the throne, and it doesn't matter whether he has the identity of the prince or not. ”

Xiao Yan smiled again and shook his head, "Tosai is really, such a big thing, he actually thought he could hide it from the Dragon King." ”

"Well, what he cares about most is my head anyway. ”

"Hehe, the dragon king is breathless. ”

"If you are used to walking on the tip of the knife, you don't think the tip of the knife is terrible, and if you try your luck, you may really be able to find your head. ”

"The Dragon King is not a man of chance. "Xiao Yan was testing the Dragon King, "That night, you were in the palace, so you didn't see anything." ”

"Well, if you see some, no one will believe you when you say it. ”

Xiao Yan wanted the Dragon King to speak, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed back, "At this time, trust is more precious than the gold, silver and jewelry of the entire Dragon Court combined, but I trust the Dragon King, my subordinates have got some news, and I will send someone to bring it to you later." ”

Fang Wen looked at the Dragon King and Xiao Yan from a distance, and when the two groups of people separated, he said the question in his heart, "Xiao Yan also wants that head?"

Gu Shenwei nodded, because of the words of the close servants, the head of the old Khan King suddenly became a priceless treasure, and the Xiao Yan clan naturally would not let go of this opportunity, in her mind, the position of the Khan King should naturally belong to the Prince of Dotun who was far away in the Western Regions.

Gu Shenwei's experience in the palace that night, the military advisor was one of the very few people who knew about it, and he had already thought about it for a long time, "Could the Grand Lieutenant be lying? The head was not lost at all, but was given to someone he wanted to support, such as the Shadow King?"

"Possibly. ”

"Alas, no matter what, even if the Dragon King finds his head, it won't be of much use, you are not the Prince of Khan, I have carefully investigated, not only the close servants, including the soldiers under the prince's account, have a good impression of the Dragon King, and think that you are the commander who can protect his subordinates, but it is only that, it is impossible for them to be loyal to the foreigners, even if the sky falls. ”

"Then I'm going to get my head back, too. ”

"Give it to King Yao?" Fang Wen was very surprised, "Don't care about the five-day limit, if there is no accident, Tosai will have to be defeated if he can't hold out for five days, he is a fool, he doesn't have the strongest strength, but he wants to seize the best territory, this morning his subordinates fought a victory, the position advanced a lot, the north is close to the army, the south is against the Holy King, no matter who wins tomorrow, he will be eliminated by the trend." ”

"At least I need to know what happened when the head was taken away. Gu Shenwei, like the military advisor, was not optimistic about the prospects of King Yao, and did not regard this arrogant new king as too much of a threat in his heart, "If the captain didn't lie, this matter would be strange, because I didn't take it, and Xiaoyuetang didn't take it, and there must have been an accident in the middle." ”

Gu Shenwei raised his eyes and looked around, but saw nothing except lush weeds and tents, "Xiaoyue Hall is hiding in the shadows, I'm afraid that there is another shadow in the Dragon Court." ”

Fang Wenshi also looked up at the sky for a while, thinking too intently, and almost fell off the horse, "A suitable puppet, obedient, young, and pure-blooded. ”

Gu Shenwei was stunned for a moment, not understanding how the military advisor's mind turned to the "puppet".

Fang Wen shook his head habitually, "I'm sorry, I want to go somewhere else, the Dragon King go find the head, I'll try to see if I can find an ideal Khan prince, not Tosai, not the Shadow King, the former one is too stupid and arrogant, and the latter one is too smart, neither of them is a good choice." ”

The military advisor is not yet fully sure, and it seems that he does not plan to disclose the details now, and Gu Shenwei did not ask, he has many things to worry about, and he must entrust some important tasks to his subordinates.

Xiao Yan kept his promise to share information, and appointed the red bat to come and deliver the message, there was not much value, Gu Shenwei noticed that the captain had been secretly looking for the head for several days, and even sent cavalry to hunt down suspicious people within a range of several hundred miles, which showed that he was not lying, and the head was indeed missing.

The red bat retired, and Shangguan Fei also brought news.

Gu Shenwei's temporary alliance with Shangguan Yun was still a secret, and Shangguan Fei was still in charge of passing the word, "It is true that all the people of the Central Plains have not left the Dragon Court. ”

Gu Shenwei's use of the Jinpeng killer was very limited, except for letting them help defend the outside of the barracks, it was to find out the news.

"Most of them don't have a fixed place, but there is a group of people, about twenty or thirty, who meet in different places every night, and tonight's location has been inquired about. ”

"Good. "Long before going to see Tosai, Gu Shenwei had already paid attention to the whereabouts of the head, and the first thing that came to mind was naturally the people in the Central Plains martial arts, and the Jinpeng killer really found a clue.

It was going to be another busy night, and Gu Shenwei sent Shangguan Fei back, and he also left the tent, beat around the bush, and came to another tent.

The young killer at the door nodded slightly, indicating that it was safe inside.

Inside the tent, Nie Zeng didn't think so, he stood in the corner, his right hand clutched the hilt of the knife, not hiding the vigilance in his heart at all, the woman opposite was rescued by them, but he tried to kill the people who approached her many times along the way, and now the chains on her feet have been removed, so it has become more dangerous.

Han Wuxian combed his long hair as if no one was around, and even if the Dragon King walked in, he didn't react.

"There's a mission tonight, both of you participating. ”

"She couldn't walk. "Nie Zeng hopes to take this opportunity to get rid of the crazy woman.

Han Wuxian's foot injury had not yet healed, so he could only sit on the bed, and when he heard the two of them talking, he finally turned his head, "You can carry me on your back." ”

If there is no way out behind him, Nie Zeng will jump out of ten steps, "No, I don't carry it." ”

Han Wuxian didn't seem to hear the young man's refusal, turned to the Dragon King, and said softly, "How many people can you kill?" ”

"It's hard to say, but it has something to do with the Dutch girl. ”

"This is an exception. Han Wuxian's smile was like a flower blooming, and Nie Zeng saw it in his eyes, but he felt that his heart was furious.
