As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Long's eyes widened in shock.
All 50,000 Panlong soldiers are dead? Tianhu is dead too? How could they be dead!
The troops sent were all elite, and Tianhu even said that he would definitely elevate the Huang family to a higher level upon returning to the capital!
How could he... how could he have died on the battlefield so soon?!
Huang Long felt both grief and anger, but he quickly remembered Jin Jianren's second sentence.
Huang Yuanlang actually denounced himself in front of the people of Beiliang?
That beast!
All my years of cultivation and training were wasted. Giving him troops and opportunities to make a name for himself was a waste!
He actually turned on me at this crucial moment! He's utterly heartless! Could it be that the complete annihilation of Tianhu and Panlong Army was also related to him?
Upon closer reflection, Huanglong's rage was practically about to burst through his chest.
At that moment, he suddenly remembered the letter he had received from home a few days earlier.
What Tianwei said in his letter actually came true!
In that instant, Huang Long felt an overwhelming sense of sorrow, and his eyes immediately reddened. Pain, grief, anger, and a mix of other emotions made it difficult for him to even breathe.
When Huang Long realized that Jin Jianren had brought his troops directly to arrest people without even giving him a chance to speak, he understood that Jin Fengluan wanted to take action against him before Qin Zeqing could clear out the court of corrupt officials!
She actually abandoned the Huang family!
Even if I don't die at Qin Ze's hands, I'll die at hers!
This filled Huanglong with both anger and sorrow, as he had been utterly loyal to her and obeyed her every command.
Sending a large army to the grasslands to kill Qin Ze was ultimately her idea!
Not long ago, when she went to the palace, she vowed that after the New Year, when Tianwei was transferred back to the capital, she would be able to enjoy her old age in peace. But only a few days have passed, and she has changed her mind faster than turning the pages of a book, showing no regard for her own merits and hard work.
Such a ruthless woman is truly a rare find in this world!
Suddenly, a terrifying thought flashed through Huang Long's mind.
Tianwei wrote in his letter that when he went to the East Sea, he vaguely felt that someone was watching him. Could it be that... his feeling was right, and he was really being watched!
And the person monitoring them... was sent by Jin Fengluan!
But at that time, Qin Ze had not yet been granted the title of Prince of Zhenbei!
Doesn't this mean that Jin Fengluan had been secretly plotting to kill me all along...?
Now that she's sent Jin Jianren here, doesn't that mean her sons, who are far away, are also about to meet a terrible fate?
Thinking of this, Huang Long felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his heart had turned to the bottom.
At this moment, Jin Jianren, who was sitting to the side, looked at the change in Huang Long's expression and chuckled:
“Huang Long, you’re a bit dumber than Qin Haotian, so you’ve lived longer than him.”
"However, it is precisely because he is a bit stupid that he does not understand the principle of 'when the cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog is cooked'."
