Xue Rongwu released his soul at will and rushed into the clone's sea of ​​consciousness.
But as soon as he entered, he realized something was wrong. The spirit of this seemingly sensible guard was completely different from his appearance, and the spirit was stronger than him.
At this time, the martial arts experts from the other two cities suddenly came out of the teleportation array.
At the teleportation array, there were fifty strong men arranged by Xue Rongwu. The two sides immediately killed each other, causing chaos.
Moreover, those people were shouting while killing, saying that Xue Jinling entered the city lord's palace for no reason and deliberately provoked dynastic disputes.
The garrison commanders of the two cities later came over with some elite soldiers and joined the battle.
The attention of Xue Jinling and others was immediately attracted.
At this time, the clone also used all the power of the soul, including lightning strikes, ghost fire, and Buddha's light, to forcibly plant a slave mark on Xue Rongwu's soul before putting his soul back.
Then Xue Rongwu also turned around and observed the battle between the two sides. It was not until his men killed all the strong men that he took everyone back to the city lord's palace and asked people to check the souls one by one.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with these people, he asked carefully about what happened.
After Xue Rongwu learned about the situation, he was going to confront the martial artist who was injured by the Cuishan City Lord's Mansion.
"What about the injured person? That person is very important. If he speaks untruthfully, it may cause misunderstandings!"
Xue Jinling immediately asked someone to bring him.
"Dead?" Xue Jinling was also surprised when he saw that the man was dead. The man was seriously injured, but it was definitely not fatal.
He immediately began to worry, fearing that this was a conspiracy set against him.
"He was killed by Hun Xiu!" Xue Rongwu confirmed.
"Who could have done this...?" Xue Jinling asked Xue Rongwu.
Xue Rongwu shook his head: "It's hard to say. Just now those two people from the City Lord's Mansion shouted that you led people to attack their City Lord's Mansion for no reason? Before you took action, didn't you confirm whether what your men said was true or false?"
"I..." Xue Jinling wanted to defend, but when she realized that she really didn't ask a word, she just took action. She also felt that there was indeed something wrong with her.
He finally admitted: "I believed the servant's words gullibly and took action directly without asking whether it was true or false!"
"Then I'm afraid someone is really planning to frame you!" Xue Rongwu said clearly: "The princes are all competing for the position of crown prince, and the eighth prince is too careless!
Originally, King Zhongyuan wanted to give you a chance to make meritorious deeds, but unexpectedly you did it like this! Now you have caused a lot of trouble!"
Xue Jinling bit it and was speechless, but cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He immediately softened his attitude toward Xue Rongwu and asked Xue Rongwu for help.
Xue Rongwu deliberately pretended to be difficult: "It's not that there are no ways... it's just that it's a little difficult to implement."
Xue Jinling understood the words and immediately drove all his men back.
Xue Rongwu also asked the guards around him to go out on patrol.
Xue Jinling waited until everyone had left, then took out a storage ring and handed it to Xue Rongwu: "Uncle Wang, here are a hundred drops of Cui Yuan Liquid. When I get over this difficulty and return to the palace, I will prepare more gifts.
Thank you Uncle Wang for your help!”
Xue Rongwu pretended not to accept it at first, but after several attempts to evade it, he accepted it.
Then he said to Xue Jinling: "The key figure is that lying soldier. I guess those two dynasties were kept in the dark just like you.
So you can find a subordinate to replace the lying soldier and let him be the scapegoat!"
"But the person who wants to harm me behind the scenes must know that he is not right!" Xue Jinling asked in confusion.
Xue Rongwu explained: "Of course. Of course he knows who the person who wants to harm you has sent. But he doesn't know whether the person he sent reported directly to you.
All you have to do is confirm that you heard it from the scapegoat. In this way, even if the investigation continues, neither the one who was killed nor the scapegoat will be traced to you."
"Then those people around me..." Xue Jinling asked doubtfully. It was clear that many people had heard their conversation just now.
"Keep that scapegoat, and all the rest..." Xue Rongwu said, making a downward slashing gesture, asking Xue Jinling to kill and silence him.
"This..." Xue Jinling was a little reluctant to make a move and was still hesitating.
"You decide for yourself! I estimate that at this time, the other two dynasties are already complaining to King Zhongyuan about this matter, and King Zhongyuan will come to hold him accountable soon." Xue Rongwu urged.
"Okay then! What should I do?" Xue Jinling immediately compromised after hearing this from King Zhongyuan.
"Leave it to me to handle it. How many resources do you still have in hand? Take it all out. Only money can make the world go round!" Xue Rongwu said.
Upon hearing this, Xue Jinling immediately took out most of the resources in his storage ring and gave them to Xue Rongwu.
Xue Rongwu also took the storage ring and called Xue Jinling's men into a separate side hall, saying that they wanted to conduct an examination.
The first person he called was the clone, and he immediately handed over the hundred pieces of Cui Yuan Liquid and the storage ring.
Then the clone called the others in one by one. Except for the clone, no one else came out after entering. In fact, they were all planted with slave marks by the clone and taken into the space world.
Everything Xue Rongwu did was actually a trap for Xue Jinling according to the clone's instructions.
After he finished dealing with Xue Jinling's men, King Zhongyuan also used the telegraph to ask him what happened.
Xue Rongwu only said that Xue Jinling listened to his subordinates and went directly to attack the city lord's palace of the Xingjin Dynasty. The subordinates have now been captured by him and are being interrogated.
King Zhongyuan also suspected that someone had framed the eighth prince and asked him to conduct a strict investigation. He also asked Xue Rongwu to inform Xue Jinling to return to the royal city immediately to avoid being plotted against.
However, Xue Rongwu told King Zhongyuan that there was no news about Xue Jinling and he had not returned to Cuiyuan City.
King Zhongyuan immediately asked Xue Rongwu to send someone to search for him, and also said that he would also contact Xue Jinling personally.
Xue Rongwu agreed and went to find Xue Jinling.
At this time, Xue Jinling had just received a message from King Zhongyuan, asking about his location.
"Uncle Wang, why do you ask me where I am?" Xue Jinling was a little confused.
"Your father just asked me where you were. In order to remove your suspicion, I told him that you haven't come back yet. You replied to him and said that you are being hunted by the two city lords and you still have two or three days to get around.
Return to Cuiyuan City." Xue Rongwu said.
"Why do you say two or three days?" Xue Jinling was a little confused. Obviously, it can be reached from Cuishan City to Cuiyuan City in one day.
"You have to take a detour to avoid being chased! And you can't let your opponents know the exact time, lest they harm you again!" Xue Rongwu said naturally.
"Oh!" When Xue Jinling was in a panic, he couldn't think of so much and just responded as Xue Rongwu taught him.
Chapter completed!
