I heard a male voice behind me: "Master, all the Dongxu people nearby have been strangled to death."

Luo Chengguan turned his head and met Xu Lang's eyes.

The other party threw a corpse at his feet. It was a masked man in black with a badge representing his identity.

It was the people he brought.

Luo Chengguan frowned and looked at Liang Qingchen, his eyes flashing with coldness: "Did you expect me to come?"

Liang Qingchen shook his head and said, "I don't have the ability to foresee things, but I only knew about it when you entered the city."

"Enter the city gate..." Luo Chengguan suddenly figured it out, and said, "It turns out that Meng Tu is your man. No wonder you can stay safe and sound in Xuancang and come and go freely. King Rui is really capable. It should take many years to train a general in an enemy country. When did you start planning all this?"

"You don't need to know this. All your people are dead. Now you are alone and helpless. You can't escape even if you have wings."

Liang Qingchen just moved his fingers and Xu Lang stepped forward to capture Luo Chengguan.

However, Luo Chengguan was not someone to be trifled with. He knew that Liang Qingchen wanted to kill him, so he attacked without mercy. He dodged the moment Xu Lang attacked and knocked Xu Lang away with a palm.

Xu Lang was immediately knocked to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and was unable to get up for a long time.

It all happened in a split second.

Seeing this, Liang Qingchen asked Jiang Muyu to retreat to a safe area, and then flew forward to fight with him.

Neither of them used weapons, and the fight relied entirely on their own strength, with each punch hitting the flesh, and the sound of muffled blows came one after another. The two fought for more than ten rounds, and they were always evenly matched, and they both looked a little ferocious at the end.

Jiang Muyu watched, anxious but unable to help.

"How did things suddenly turn out like this? Are these two enemies?"

Yun Yan touched her nose awkwardly: "When rivals meet, they become enemies."

In the past, the prince was surrounded by many bad lovers, and now it's the princess' turn. I don't know why this couple is so popular.

Seeing that the two men were about to fight to the point of both being injured, Jiang Muyu could no longer stand by and watch, so he rushed forward and shouted, "Stop!"

The two men stopped at the same time. Luo Chengguan had bruises on his face and stood there gasping for breath. Liang Qingchen was actually fine, with no injuries on his face, but he was punched in the stomach and vomited blood.

Jiang Muyu immediately checked Liang Qingchen's injuries and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he was not seriously injured. He scolded him coldly, "You two, one from Tianqian and one from Dongxu, are fighting each other in Xuancang's territory. You are so arrogant! Are you afraid that others won't notice it?"

"Zhao Zhao, don't worry, he can't get away today." Liang Qingchen wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, his eyes still cold, staring at Luo Chengguan, and ordered: "Catch him!"

Then, a group of masked men in black clothes flew out from nowhere, each holding a long sword.

Even though Luo Chengguan was a skilled martial artist, he was outnumbered. In addition, he only had a short knife, so he was no match for the long sword and was captured in a short while.

He spat and glared at Liang Qingchen: "Liang Qingchen, if you have the guts, come and fight me alone again. It's not gentlemanly to scare others."

"I have never said that I am a gentleman. If we want to fight, why fight alone when we can just beat them in a group?"

Luo Chengguan was stunned for a moment, he never expected that Liang Qingchen would be so shameless and frank!

He was taken in front of Liang Qingchen, and two masked men in black pressed on his back, one on the left and one on the right, forcing him to bend over.

They kicked him hard at the bend of his knee. He groaned in pain, but his knee only bent for a moment before straightening back up. He gritted his teeth and refused to kneel down.

"Okay, he doesn't have to kneel." Liang Qingchen said coldly: "This man is still valuable, so put him in the dungeon for the time being."

"yes."

After the masked man in black responded, he knocked Luo Chengguan unconscious with a palm and dragged him away.

Jiang Muyu pulled Liang Qingchen's sleeve and asked in a low voice: "Ah Chen, will you kill him?"

Liang Qingchen looked at her: "Why, you can't bear to let go?"

"In Dongxu, although he was suspected of imprisoning me, it was thanks to him that I was able to live safely in the enemy camp. In the end, he let me go, so he was a favor to me. If not for..."

"If he hadn't come for you today, he wouldn't have fallen into my hands, right?"

"Uh..." That was indeed the truth, but she knew she couldn't admit it, otherwise it would backfire.

So she said, "What I mean is, he was a general of the Dongxu Kingdom, and he died inexplicably at your hands, and in Xuancang's territory. Isn't that a bit bad?"

"The chief commander of Dongxu State is dead. Yu Tiangan and Xuan Cang can only say that this is good news."

"But now, don't we have to rely on the three countries to check and balance each other?"

"Zhao Zhao, why don't you see the situation clearly? The death of Dongxu's commander-in-chief is a good thing for Yu Tiangan and Xuan Cang."

"But it's not a good thing for you." Jiang Muyu said affirmatively.

Liang Qingchen looked at her quietly, the frost in his eyes gradually melted away, and he suddenly smiled dazzlingly: "My Zhao Zhao... you are the person who understands me best in this world."

Jiang Muyu looked at this smile, but felt a chill down his spine.

Liang Qingchen's strategy took everyone into account, including her and himself.

According to her previous speculation, if Liang Qingchen's goal was to unify the three kingdoms, he would first have to ensure that the three kingdoms could check and balance each other, otherwise it would be disadvantageous to his cause if any one kingdom dominated. He would first have to take Xuan Cang into his possession before he could annex the other two kingdoms one by one.

He had been planning for a long time, and launching the Three Kingdoms War was just to take advantage of the situation. He killed Wu Lianxu to give the emperor a reason to attack him, and when the border war happened to break out at this time, he could make up for his mistake and lead his troops to the war.

Even his "death" was just a chess move. Because only if he was ambushed could he be captured by Mengtu and sneak into Xuancang to seize the throne.

Luo Chengguan must have started planning this move since she was brought into the enemy camp.

If my guess is correct, Dongxu Kingdom has also planted his people there. Knowing that she is well protected in the enemy camp, I can guess that Luo Chengguan has feelings for her.

So, after Luo Chengguan learned that she might have had an accident, he secretly left him clues, allowing him to follow the clues and find Xuan Cang, and then he caught the turtle in the jar by surprise.

In this way, Dongxu and Tianqian would both lose their commanders, and their military morale would be shaken. On the contrary, Xuancang's morale would be greatly boosted, and he would definitely send troops to take advantage of the opportunity.

When everyone's attention was focused on the border war, who would care whether someone suddenly forced the palace to usurp the throne? By the time others reacted, Xuan Cang's throne had already changed hands.

One thing leads to another, and each one captures one's heart. Such scheming and cunning are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

It is undeniable that he loves her, and for her sake he is willing to go deep into the enemy's territory at all costs. However, his ambition and obsession have reached an outrageous level.
