Xiao Wang and his friends showed up to check it out.
After a quick look, he nodded to Nangong Jiu.
Nangong Jiu pressed his sword downwards and said, “I will go back and take inventory. If the quantity is not enough, I will come back to find you.
By then, money won’t be enough to solve the problem.”
Zhao Zhengxiong nodded in frustration: "Don't worry, this is a batch of gold that was just put into the warehouse a few days ago, there can't be any mistakes."
Nangong Jiu waved his hand and put the gold into his small pocket, then raised his hand and touched Zhao Zhengxiong's vest.
"This is a lesson for you. It won't kill you, but it will hurt a little, reminding you to always remember this lesson."
After saying that, he disappeared with a few people.
Zhao Zhengxiong felt relieved, but also extremely angry, and smashed a lot of things to vent his anger.
Coming out of the palace, Nangong Jiu looked at the sun above his head and said, "Let's find a place to rest and eat something before going to Nanjin."
Xiao Wang pointed to a place not far away and said, "There's a noodle stall over there. Let's go there and take a rest."
"Okay, let's go and eat something first."
A few people ordered noodles at the noodle stall and sat down to wait.
At this time, several young men dressed like gangsters came.
After sitting down, they started talking in low voices.
"Do you think that the Empress has arrived? Otherwise, how could the Northern Evil Alliance be destroyed in just half a day?"
Taoist Qingchen responded coldly.
"The Emperor was afraid that his murder would be exposed and lead the Empress to seek revenge on him, so he ordered his Dragon Guards to destroy the Northern Evil Alliance and destroy the evidence."
Did the emperor do it?
Can't it?
Such explosive news made several men a little bit unbelievable, and they gathered around to ask for confirmation.
"Are you serious?"
"It's absolutely true! Monks don't tell lies!"
"Then how did you know?"
Nangong Jiu kindly explained: "Because, we happened to see it."
"So that's true?
Alas, the leader of the Beisha League, Ye, is also unlucky.
If the empress came to seek revenge, they would accept it, after all, the Beisha Alliance was the one who made the mistake first.
But Alliance Leader Ye fell into the hands of his own people. The Emperor's move was too cruel and too unkind."
Soon, the noodles were served and everyone stopped talking to eat.
No one noticed that when the noodle stall owner was free, his eyes were full of hatred as he looked towards the palace.
After eating and drinking their fill, Nangong Jiu and his group headed directly to Nanjin.
"Xiao Wang, go and rest for a while with General Qin. He has been dealing with Nanjin for so long, he might know something about the power of the eldest prince."
Southern Jin border.
General Qin's military tent.
One of General Qin's personal guards hurried into the military tent to report.
"General, Princess Dingguo is here!"
"What? Where are the people?"
"Here we go, we'll be there soon."
General Qin hurried out of the military tent and said, "I pay my respects to the princess!"
Nangong Jiu raised his hand: "General Qin, please stand up!"
The group was welcomed into the military tent.
The guards served refreshments.
General Qin then asked, "Excuse me, Princess, why are you here?"
Nangong Jiu explained his purpose: "General Qin, you may have heard about the trouble the Jianghu people caused me.
The forces of the eldest prince of Southern Jin disguised themselves as people from the underworld and wanted to massacre my general's residence in the capital and cut off my arms. I am going to settle the score with him.
The purpose of coming here is to see if General Qin has any relevant information?"
General Qin slapped his thigh after hearing this and said, "He doesn't take Dongling seriously at all. This account should be settled!
Princess, you've come at the right time. Our spies mentioned in a letter that the eldest prince maintains tens of thousands of private soldiers in Qianying Ridge, over a hundred miles from the Southern Jin imperial city."
Nangong Jiu was overjoyed: "Thank you, General Qin! This will save us a lot of trouble."
"Princess, are you planning to destroy them?"
"Hmm! They dared to come to Dongling to kill my family, and how could we tolerate them?"
General Qin nodded and analyzed, "Several princes of Southern Jin are vying for the throne, with the eldest prince being the most popular.
The eldest prince is a cunning and ambitious person. Judging from the fact that he sent people to deal with the general's mansion, if he comes to power, the peace on the border may be disrupted.
Our spies have written to say that they have tried several times to trip him up, but have been unsuccessful."
Nangong Jiu clapped his hands and said, "Then I won't hold back and will eliminate the evil directly."
General Qin hurriedly reminded: "Princess, you should be careful when you go there."
As he spoke, he led Nangong Jiu to the map and pointed to the location of Qianying Ridge on the map.
"This Thousand Eagle Ridge is right in the direction from here to the Southern Jin Imperial City."
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, General Qin!"
Thousand Eagle Ridge.
When Nangong Jiu and his group arrived above Qianying Ridge, they did not rush down, but instead hid themselves and searched carefully.
"Your Majesty, look, they are there!" Xiao Wang pointed to the houses hidden in the forest below.
"Well, it looks like there are quite a lot of people there, and they are still training." Nangong Jiu stared down.
“These private soldiers are killing tools trained by those powerful people.
Unlike the soldiers who defend their country, they have no emotions and live only to kill people for their masters and fight for power and profit.
I will show no mercy when I get down there."
As he spoke, he waved his hand downwards, setting up a barrier.
"They dared to massacre the general's mansion for no reason. They are no different from the group of people from Tianmen Sect. They will be a disaster if they are kept." Xiao Wang nodded.
The group slowly landed near the private soldiers.
After looking for a while, Taoist Qingchen shook his head.
"Jiu Jun, General Qin said there were tens of thousands of people, but the people here look like less than 20,000. Could there be more somewhere else?"
Wuwang's mind raced: "Is it possible that only a small number of people are practicing?"
"Well, let's go inside and take a look.
If there is no one in the house, we need to look for it again before we act, so as not to alert the enemy and give others a chance to escape."
Several people searched the houses one by one and found private soldiers resting in every house. This discovery made everyone feel relieved.
Nangong Jiu didn't say anything and took action directly.
Xiao Wang and a few others also joined in.
It didn't take much effort or make much noise to deal with the people in the house.
When it was their turn to deal with the private soldiers training, several people appeared directly in the group of private soldiers, their cultivation fully activated...
Several people stayed in Qianying Ridge for more than an hour.
After a thorough cleanup, they headed straight for the Southern Jin Imperial City.
"It's getting late. We have to hurry up and try to finish it as soon as possible so that we can return home sooner."
The Grand Prince’s Mansion in the Imperial City.
The eldest prince Li Jinyu returned home from outside and went straight to the study with an angry look on his face.
After walking around the study twice, he picked up a cup on the table and threw it to the ground.
"Li Jinyao actually dared to trip me up, making all my efforts over the past few days go to waste..."
The attendant stepped forward to apologize: "It is our fault that we have failed to perform our duties. Your Highness, please punish us!"
"You deserve to be punished. Go down and receive twenty lashes."
The attendant received the order and left.
Li Jinyu sat down behind the desk.
Sudden.
A childish voice entered his ears.
"Li Jinyu, I'm giving you a great gift..."
