In the darkness, Tao Zhihong found the room where the Northern Barbarian Left Prime Minister was resting. He took out a sharp dagger in his hand and pried open the door from the outside.

He rushed to the bed and started fighting with Kutuzhi who had just woken up.

In the darkness, the dagger in his hand cut Kutuzhi's arm.

Kutuzhi couldn't see where the opponent was coming from, and found that he couldn't beat him, so he screamed in anger.

Seeing that the other party was coming to kill him, he was filled with resentment.

He first shouted for help in the northern barbarian language.

Tao Zhihong attacked with great force. Not only did he use the dagger in his hand, but his left hand was also not idle. He punched Kutuji in one of his eyes.

As the left prime minister of the Northern Barbarians, Kutuji knows martial arts and has a certain ability to protect himself.

He held on for a while, but was accidentally stabbed in the stomach.

"What a traitor, King Junshan! He dared to betray us and refused to cooperate anymore, so he sent people to kill us and silence us."

When Kutuji was injured and vomited, the words he said were very frightening to Tao Zhihong!

What?

King Junshan is actually colluding with the Northern Barbarians?

Before Tao Zhihong could think about it, the northern barbarian who was resting in another room came to the rescue with a scimitar in hand.

Tao Zhihong had achieved the purpose of his trip tonight and jumped out of the window nimbly.

The northern barbarians had no time to chase him, but instead lit the lights and woke up the officials at the post station at night, asking them to invite a doctor to treat their left prime minister's wound as soon as possible.

The commotion inside the post station alarmed Tieshan and others who were guarding outside.

"You guys continue to guard here and take this opportunity to find out what happened. I will go after that person myself."

After Tieshan explained the situation very skillfully, he ran desperately in the dark night, chasing after Tao Zhihong's figure who had jumped into the woods.

The two men fought in the woods, and after a few hits, they both stopped.

"General, it's you!"

Tieshan greeted Tao Zhihong with surprise.

"I've already ascertained the purpose of these northern barbarians. On their way back home, you must keep a close eye on them. If you discover they're about to meet someone, send me a quick message."

Tao Zhihong repeatedly asked Tieshan and his men to keep a close eye on these northern barbarians, and then rushed towards the capital.

[As expected of a great general defending the nation, he managed to obtain confidential information with just one attempt.]

[As your Majesty's youngest uncle, he fought tooth and nail, colluding with the northern barbarians and harming the family of the Duke of Zhuguo, yet he still couldn't gain military power or seize that position. Even after more than a decade, he still refuses to give up!]

[I've been a traitor for over a decade. Thanks to the support of great generals like my grandfather and my father, the Great Zhou has been able to maintain its prosperity. Otherwise, the country would have been destroyed long ago.]

Tao Zhihong stumbled and jumped, almost falling to the ground.

He heard his daughter's thoughts, which meant that his daughter had been following him all the way and watching tonight's actions.

This is nonsense!

"Tao Yuwei! Get out here!"

Tao Zhihong stopped running, turned around and looked for Tao Yuwei.

His sudden angry curse scared Tao Yuwei so much that her heart skipped a beat.

It's over, she was discovered by her father.

Judging from the way Dad spoke, he must have noticed my stalking a long time ago. He was quite patient and only got angry after the job was done!

When Tao Zhihong heard Tao Yuwei's heartfelt words, he suddenly felt a burning pain on his old face.

He was a great general who had been victorious in every battle, but he was followed all the way from the capital to the post station without noticing. What a failure.

It would be so embarrassing if I told others about it.

If he hadn't been able to hear his daughter's thoughts, he might not have known that he was being followed.

Fortunately, this person is his own daughter.

How on earth had she managed to do it so quietly without him noticing?

Tao Zhihong felt that he had underestimated his daughter's abilities.

"Come out! If you don't come out, I'll cut off your mother's monthly salary and leave you to starve."

Tao Yuwei was still hoping for luck and didn't want to show up, but when she heard her father threaten her with her monthly salary, she dared not hide anymore.

"Dad, you're so petty! I just went out with you for a walk, but you're so angry and threatening me? Where's your broad mind?"

Tao Yuwei walked out from behind a big tree on the side.

When he saw the real person, Tao Zhihong jumped up without saying a word and rushed over to fight.

Tao Yuwei is not a fool, how could she just stand there? She used her lightness skills and mental strength to escape at a speed that no one could match.

Seeing his daughter's figure disappear in a flash without even leaving a trace, Tao Zhihong tried his best to chase his daughter.

In this way, the two of them chased each other and returned in just over an hour before entering the city.

It was half the speed of leaving the city.

After returning home, Tao Yuwei fled to her room and fell asleep.

This made Tao Zhihong, who had chased him out of the yard, so angry that he shook his head.

Forget it, let her go for now. There's plenty of time to teach her a lesson.

Now, he already knew that King Junshan was colluding with the northern barbarians, so he had to prepare in advance.

Without taking a rest, Tao Zhihong returned to his study and wrote to the loyal and brave General Feng Tao who was guarding the northern border overnight.

When this person was young, he cooperated with him to fight against the northern barbarians for many years. Feng Tao is a native of the northern border and has his own set of skills to deal with the northern barbarians.

A few years ago, after they defeated the northern barbarians together, he returned to Beijing to report on his work and stayed in the capital. Feng Tao took over his original position and guarded the entire northern border.

Emperor Jianchang was a very broad-minded monarch. After Feng Tao took over his position as the garrison commander of the northern border, he did not issue an edict requiring Feng Tao's family to settle in Beijing and hold them hostage-like.

Therefore, Feng Tao's entire family was in the north, and apart from him, Feng Tao had no relatives or friends in the court.

They do not belong to anyone's power and are only loyal to Your Majesty.

He informed Feng Tao of the collusion between King Junshan and the Northern Barbarians, and told him to be prepared in case the Northern Barbarian delegation turned against the Great Zhou and launched an attack after leaving the border.

He and his friends and many soldiers have worked hard to guard the country's borders for many years. He will not allow anyone to destroy the country's interests for their own selfish interests.

Tao Zhihong picked up the brush and quickly wrote the secret letter.

After the letter was written and sent in a special way, it was delivered to the northern border.

It's almost dawn outside.

He didn't sleep all night, but he didn't feel tired.

At King Junshan's place, he must talk to the commander of the Xiaoyu Guard.

With them, we will find evidence of King Junshan's treason. Then, if we can capture him, we will have accomplished our mission with a legitimate purpose!

Tao Zhihong lay on the table, closed his eyes and took a short nap, and then it was time to go to court.

He changed into court robes, had a simple meal, and then rushed to court.

When Tao Yuwei woke up, it was almost noon.

Not long after I got up and finished drinking the bird's nest porridge, a servant from the general's mansion came to report that a Miss Jiang came to visit.

Miss Jiang?

Could it be that the heroine is looking for her?

She wasn't familiar with the person, so Tao Yuwei was very curious about what he wanted her to do.
