Chapter 293 Cao Mansion(1/2)

Late at night, in the prince's tent.

Everyone who should have fallen asleep, and those who are still in the account to discuss matters are the main tasks of this war.

The last battle is imminent, and you have to go through everything in detail, striving to be foolproof.

However, with Qin Feng's knowledge of marching and fighting, he didn't know where to start when he wanted to interrupt, so from the beginning to the end, he was just a listener.

When everything was over, after the crowd said goodbye, only Mi Zhengxian, Zhang Zongyi and Qin Feng were left in the camp.

It started to look a little deserted.

"It's finally over."

Mi Zhengxian sighed, breaking the silence that lasted for a moment.

Qin Feng and Zhang Zongyi both showed a sigh of relief when they heard the words, but Zhang Zongyi understood that tomorrow's final battle was crucial.

Now the rebel army is parked at King Chu, less than five miles away from King Chu.

Even though the entire Chu King's official road had been blocked in advance, it could not be guaranteed that Cao Jing would be able to be retained.

If Cao Jing cannot be kept, everything will not be over.

So, next is Qin Feng’s mission.

"Once tomorrow's war begins, there will be chaos in the capital of the King of Chu, so Qin Feng's mission is to go to Cao's mansion and keep Cao Jing as much as possible." Zhang Zongyi said.

After hearing this, Qin Feng nodded slightly.

Mi Zhengxian added: "But Cao Jing may not necessarily choose to sit and wait for death. If you go to Cao Jing tomorrow and don't find Cao Jing, you need to come back and report to me immediately. Do you understand?"

"clear."

Qin Feng answered immediately.

Mi Zhengxian said again: "It's just that Cao's mansion is his Cao Jing's place after all, and there must be many dangers. If he doesn't leave, it's too dangerous for you to go alone, so let's take twenty guards with you."

Qin Feng heard the words, but shook his head and said, "Will the twenty-one person be too eye-catching? I'm afraid it will alarm the snake."

"Then ten people, at least ten people should be brought. You can't deal with the servants around Cao Jing." Mi Zhengxian said, "When we negotiated with Uncle Wang, that day, Tao Changwu, you have already seen the strength of the young servant. According to the spy, Cao Jing has eight servants who are usually accompanied by, and there may be many who have not shown up."

Qin Feng was able to understand Mi Zhengxian's concerns when he heard this, and it would not be harmful to bring some people with him. He nodded and agreed.

At this time, Zhang Zongyi said, "Okay, brother Qin Feng, you should go and rest now. Tomorrow morning, it is best to set off at dawn. Half an hour after dawn, Tao Changwu will wait for you in the northeast corner of the city wall of the King of Chu. The defense line there is the weakest and the closest to Cao's Mansion."

After he finished speaking, Qin Feng stood up and agreed to the promise, left and left the tent.

As for Zhang Zongyi in the tent, he sighed lightly.

"Your Highness, is it really appropriate to do this?" Zhang Zongyi asked suddenly.

Mi Zhengxian looked at the lights and said, "No need to say more. The matter has come to this point. Even if the people in the world criticize me, I will have to complete this matter."

After that, there was nothing to say overnight.

Until dawn the next day, Qin Feng, who had been fully resting, left the barracks in the sky that had not yet been fully bright.

When he walked out of the military camp, the ten imperial guards appeared one after another and followed Qin Feng.

Walking all the way, he headed towards yesterday

Zhuo to the northeast corner of the royal city as Zong Yi said.

When he was about to arrive, he saw a slightly familiar figure, and was walking by the city wall at this moment.

When Qin Feng approached, Tao Changwu was a little stunned.

"I didn't expect that the prince would send you out."

Tao Changwu said, "But it's better for you to come. Compared to others, Cao Jing has the most shallow understanding of you."

While speaking, he glanced at the ten imperial guards who were walking with Qin Feng.

After saying that, he took out two pairs of hook claws from the ring and handed one to Qin Feng.

But when Qin Feng took the hook claw, he looked at the iron claw that was only connected to a wooden handle, but he didn't know how to use it.

Tao Changwu didn't say much. As soon as a trace of spiritual power appeared between his fingers, he was quickly absorbed by the wooden handle with his claws.

Then a slight and crisp sound sounded, and the hook in his hand immediately broke away from the wooden handle and flew out quickly above, and finally firmly attached to the top of the city wall.

Qin Feng looked carefully and could barely see a thread that was only the thickness of a hair connected between the wooden handle and the hook claws.

"Let's go."

After leaving a sentence, Tao Changwu flew directly toward the city wall that was more than ten meters high with his hooked claws.

Seeing this, Qin Feng no longer hesitated too much.

As he saw just now, he also mobilized his spiritual power to touch the mechanism inside the hook claw, and then came to the city wall after Tao Changwu.

As soon as the two of them got on the wall, they were immediately discovered by a patrol soldier.

However, before the soldier could speak, he was knocked fainted by the guards who rushed to the city wall.

After all, this is also a soldier of the Chu State, so Mi Zhengxian also issued an order to these ten imperial guards. He must not kill one person unless he had no choice.

Doudu!

The melodious sound of trumpets came from afar, and there was no doubt that the Chu army, nearly five miles away, had begun to assemble.

"We have to hurry up."

After Tao Changwu said this, he set off and jumped off the city wall.

Qin Feng followed closely behind.

...

It was about 6:30 in the morning, and the Cao Mansion was in a mess, and those who were still cleaning were just some old slaves who had nowhere to go.

At this time, in the main hall of the Cao family.

"Master, you'd better leave!"

An old housekeeper persuaded.

But Cao Jing didn't say anything, just shook his head.

The butler immediately said: "The carriages and horses have been prepared for the master. According to the news from several adults, the prince's army will be able to reach the city in less than an hour. It will be impossible to leave at that time. Master, you should leave now."

But even though the old butler repeatedly persuaded him, Cao Jing still shook his head.

"I'm not going anywhere here. I just want to see what kind of ending a person like me can end up with." Cao Jing said.

"master!"

"Old Cui, count the time. You have been with me for almost forty years." Cao Jing said, "You are a young man and a young man, you have caused me a lot of trouble over the years, haha."

"Master, it's not the time to talk about this now, you..."

"Old Cui, do you remember when you were almost cheated by human traffickers when you sold your body to bury your father?"

"Remember, remember, it was the master who saved me at that time. Cui Fugui has remembered me for the great kindness of his master for the rest of his life."

"You are younger than me, don't just keep your mouth shut and keep your mouth shut. You will have a long life." Cao Jing said, "Since you still remember, I'll cherish your life and leave now."

"Master, since you don't plan to leave, I won't leave."

"What about your family, what should they do?"

"I have already made arrangements, and my own life is given by the master. Today I will be here to accompany the master."

"Haha, I have never married and had children in my life, but the incense of your Lao Cui family can continue. It can be seen that Lao Cui is better than mine."

Speaking of this, Cao Jing picked up the teapot beside him and poured two cups of tea.

He pointed to the chair beside him and said, "Old Cui, today we will be on par with you and I will have a cup of tea with me."

Lao Cui did not refuse at this time, and bowed his order and sat down.

The two of them picked up the teacup at the same time and smiled at each other, without saying anything more for a while.

Cui Fugui looked at the cup of tea in his hand and drank tons of stomach.

"For the past forty years, you have to take care of all the affairs of the mansion, but thank you so much." Cao Jing said with a teacup, "It's not just the mansion, but also many matters in the big network, but you haven't worried you less."

"Since I have followed the master, these are what Cui Fugui should do." Cui Fugui said.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he leaned back the teacup in his hand.

"Master, Fugui has followed the master in his life, and has encountered many people and many things, and he has clearly seen the warmth and warmth of this world." Cui Fugui said, "To be honest, Lao Cui has done too many bad things in his life, so he often thinks about his way of death, which is to be hacked to death by his enemies and hanged to death. But no matter how I think about it, I was poisoned to death by the master."

After saying that, he just smiled.

As mentioned just now, this life was given by Cao Jing, so when he found that the tea was poisonous, he still drank it without complaint.

"Old Cui, for the sake of the will of Xin Chu to be continued, I can only let you down." Cao Jing said.

And when he finished speaking, he drank the tea in the cup in one go.

And when he got up, Cui Fugui was already dead.

It can be seen that this is highly toxic.
To be continued...
