Chapter 8 The cause of death is not so simple

Qi Jimei no longer wondered how Zhang Jingxiu escaped from Jiangling City, but said these words with a serious expression. Zhang Jingxiu suddenly asked: "General Qi, although the journey to Yingxian is short, it only takes a few days. However, if you have been away from Guizhou for so long, it is probably a little bad, right?"

"After all, the rebellion of the rebellion of the southwestern chieftains has just ended. It has not been long since then. Especially as the general of Yunnan and Guizhou, it is the focus of attention of all parties. If you haven't appeared for too long, it may easily cause suspicion."

"Although I am in Jiangling, I also know that the court in the capital is surging, and many forces are liquidating our Zhang family, especially when my father was alive, those officials who had close contacts and good friendships were the key targets they targeted."

Although Zhang Jingxiu was vague, Qi Jimei still understood the meaning. Zhang Jingxiu wanted to return to Guizhou as soon as possible, so as not to be discovered by someone who is interested, and leave his post without permission and leave his garrison.

Otherwise, the Qi family, which was already at the forefront of the storm, would be in a worse situation, and would make the villains in the court say something and would easily be attacked.

Qi Jimei could clearly feel that when the emperor issued an order to search the Zhang family, he was preparing to collect evidence of Zhang Juzheng's corruption and bribery. His eldest brother Qi Jiguang was transferred from the capital and stationed in Guangdong. There was a conspiracy in such a remote place.

Also, although he and several other chief generals of the Qi family army have not been demoted, they have been transferred or promoted, and the chief generals of the Qi family army have been greatly replaced and can no longer be called the Qi family army.

"But, Mr. Zhang, if only Qi Yin's nephew escorts you alone and heading to Ying County, the journey is difficult. I don't know if the factory guards will chase you. I'm really worried."

As a soldier, Qi Jimei was more direct, but Qi Yin was a little at a loss and didn't know how to respond. Both of them were very reasonable. If the uncle continued to escort, although the safety was more secure, the risk of the uncle's exposure would be very high.

After all, it’s okay for me. Almost no one knows that I am still alive. However, my uncle is the general of Yunnan and Guizhou, and is in charge of military affairs, which is the focus of attention of all parties and cannot leave for too long.

After all, my uncle has been away from the base for more than half a month, and he has been rushing back to Guizhou for almost a month.

Otherwise, once the news is leaked, the already bad Qi family will add insult to injury. The traitors in the court will definitely turn the spear and attack their father, Qi Jiguang, and even the entire Qi family.

If the uncle left now, it is undoubtedly difficult for him to protect Zhang Jingxiu's safety with a slightly weaker skill. Once a factory guard catches up, it is probably difficult for him to protect Zhang Jingxiu, not to mention defending Zhang Jingxiu.

For a moment, Qi Yin, who was grateful to Zhang Juzheng for saving his life, was in a dilemma and was in a dilemma. When facing the conversation between the two, he didn't know what to say and which side should he stand on?

The atmosphere was a bit stalemate, and no one could come up with the best of both worlds. Zhang Jingxiu was not a selfish person, and he also knew how to repay kindness. Since the other party could help him at this time, he could not involve others' family members because of his own safety and also risk his family.

"Haha...Boy, you're really here!"

With a long laugh, the atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense while breaking the deadlock. The three of them were shocked. Qi Jimei and his uncle and nephew had already arrived outside the carriage, and Zhang Jingxiu followed closely behind, looking in the direction where the sound came.

"Not good, I'm a cultivator!"

As a prestigious general of the Ming Dynasty with rich experience, Qi Jimei was indeed knowledgeable and first reacted. While her expression became extremely ugly, she looked back at Zhang Jingxiu and urged anxiously: "Young Master Zhang, go quickly, our uncle and nephew will stop you!"

Two men in Taoist robes floated up and approached from the rear of the carriage. Seeing two horses running behind the cultivator, following from afar, and their flying postures were shaking. Qi Jimei knew that the other party was just a cultivator in the Qi training stage.

Otherwise, the opponent's appearance would not be so light and lacks a sense of awe-inspiring momentum. Fortunately, it is a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, and he and others still have the strength to fight.

If it were replaced by a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage, even if there was only one, not to mention that he could fight, Zhang Jingxiu had the possibility of escaping, and he would probably not even have the power to resist in a battle, and he could only be passively slaughtered.

"Young Master Zhang, go quickly, our uncle and nephew are responsible for the rear guard!"

However, even so, Qi Jimei was ready to fight to the death. Since she could fly in the air for a short distance, it was enough to prove that the cultivation level of cultivators who were constantly approaching would be at least above the ninth level. It would be difficult for her uncle and nephew to be their opponents, which means that she would block her for a period of time and get the possibility of Zhang Jingxiu escaping.

"General Qi, I know your kindness, but I can't leave!"

Of course, Zhang Jingxiu knew the burden on his shoulders and what his death meant, but he still flatly rejected Qi Jimei's kindness. He had already got off the carriage and acted as a fight with you. He even said loudly: "General, why am I, Zhang Jingxiu, are you a greedy person who is afraid of death? How can you leave two people alone and live a life of silence?"

"Okay, I am worthy of being Zhang Juzheng's favorite young son. He is indeed a bit bloody and is still a strong man!"

This praise came from the front of the three people, which was exactly what one of the two cultivators said. Seeing Zhang Jingxiu being a little embarrassed, with a little dirty face, and not as weak as being severely punished, she couldn't help but speak again, but her words were a bit nonsensical.

"Hmph~ Zhang Cheng and Qiu Wei dared to fool our Zhengyi Sect, saying that no one would be like torture Zhang Juzheng's sons, and he could commit suicide again at any time. Now it seems that it is just another thing, they are all living well."

Of course, the three of them understood the Taoist priest's meaning. If they were really punished, they would definitely be covered in bruises. How could they still look like Zhang Jingxiu, but they were a little weak.

Except for Zhang Jingxiu himself, of course no one knew that he was indeed injured, but he was only healed overnight with the attack of a mysterious powerful man, and his body had been transformed to a certain extent, which was extremely suitable for martial arts.

Of course, Zhang Jingxiu would not foolishly point out the twists and turns, but just looked at all this coldly. He was already standing opposite him, less than two feet away from him, frowned slightly and asked calmly: "Are you cultivators? The monks supported by the imperial court are affiliated with the Daolusi?"

"I really didn't expect that Zhang Juzheng's youngest son would have such a demeanor at such an age. He would not change his face when he collapsed from the top. He knew so much that he was almost dead and could still be so calm. It's a pity that even a person who could make a fortune would have to die young like that old guy. No one who would go against our Zhengyi Sect would have a good end."

"What did you say?"

Hearing the Taoist priest's words, Zhang Jingxiu could no longer remain calm. He sensitively caught a message, afraid that the cause of his father's death was not that simple, and that it was not just the so-called death, but another reason, but artificial.

"Oh~ I didn't expect that you are quite smart~"
