The King of Southern Xinjiang's carriage was in the middle, and Wei Ting only had to follow and drive.

The West Gate and the South Gate were controlled by the Qinglong and Fuhu tribes, but the North Gate and the East Gate were not so fast.

They disguised themselves and left the north gate as a caravan.

Go north? The Great Zhou is in the northern part of Southern Xinjiang. Could it be that Zong Zhengming is planning to go north to join the six major tribes, lead his troops to attack the capital, and compete with Zong Zhenghui for the throne?

Not every tribe can submit to Zong Zhenghui as easily as Qinglong and Fuhu.

If it weren't for the relationship with Little Fat Peacock and the trust of the Yin family, things would still be difficult to accomplish.

The two major tribes under the Cheng family have long been controlled by Zong Zhengming and are considered his die-hard fans.

The four major tribes under the Yue family and the Ji family were the first to send out troops, and they have already arrived at the border. Zong Zhengming could completely seize the opportunity and counterattack, saying that Zong Zhenghui is his younger brother.

We can’t let Zong Zhengming go to the border.

The group traveled from noon to dark, found a stream in a deep forest, and set up camp near the stream tonight.

Wei Ting was collecting dry firewood and making a fire with very nimble hands and feet, and he didn't look at all like a nobleman.

This was all thanks to the time he spent as a live-in son-in-law in Xinghua Village, otherwise the truth would have been exposed immediately.

They left in a hurry and had no dry food with them, so they could only use what was available.

The leader of the Ghost Shadow Guard ordered several of his men to go hunting, and ordered several more to pick some wild fruits and vegetables.

A ghost guard came back with a bunch of mushrooms.

Wei Ting said: "These are poisonous mushrooms, they cannot be eaten."

The ghost guard holding the poisonous mushroom: "Ah?"

The leader of the Ghost Guard looked at Wei Ting in surprise, looked him up and down for a moment, and threw a bottle to him: "Catch it!"

Wei Ting took it in his hand, and it was a bottle of healing medicine.

He looked down at his left arm and discovered that he had been injured by the driver. Blood had flowed out of his armor and had already dried up in the wind.

"Thank you, sir!"

Wei Ting thanked him.

It wasn't that he was kind, but Xie Jinnian had already noticed it when the man came back from picking poisonous mushrooms.

Xie Jinnian was about to say it, but he just spoke before Xie Jinnian.

When Wei Ting finished making the fire, he caught a glimpse of Xie Jinnian walking towards him.

Why did he come here? Did he reveal himself? Wei Ting was startled for a moment, but soon calmed down.

He and Xie Jinnian had met once in the Bird Market, but Xie Jinnian's appearance at that time was different from today, and his voice was also disguised.

Take a gamble, Xie Jinnian didn’t recognize him.

"Jiang Feng." Xie Jinnian stopped beside him, "Have you ever roasted a rabbit?"

It turned out to be a roasted rabbit, which scared me.

Wei Ting stood up, looking a little nervous: "Reply to Eunuch Jin, I have roasted it several times."

Xie Jinnian handed over two rabbits hunted by the Ghost Guards.

Wei Ting took it.

"Your Majesty doesn't like over-aged meat."

After giving the instructions, Xie Jinnian turned around and went back to Zong Zhengming's tent.

Wei Ting took the live rabbit to the stream to process it, and at the same time thought about how to deal with Zong Zhengming.

He was not being watched by anyone at this moment, but it was no use giving secret signals as they were too far away.

The message must be delivered immediately so that the eldest brother and the Black Armor Guards can arrive before daybreak.

Wei Ting skewered the processed rabbit onto a wooden stick and roasted it over the fire.

The Ghost Guards hunted back a lot of game, and these two were presented to Zong Zhengming, so the meat was naturally the most delicious.

The skin was roasted with a layer of fat and was filled with plump rabbit meat, and the crispy fragrance wafted across the stream.

The Ghost Guards all swallowed.

Wei Ting directly skewered it on a wooden stick and sent it to Zong Zhengming.

"Your Majesty, the rabbit is ready."

Xie Jinnian lifted the curtain of the tent and took both rabbits inside.

About a quarter of an hour later, Xie Jinnian came out with the two wooden sticks in his hands.

Zong Zhengming had a poor appetite, so there was still a lot of rabbit meat left.

Xie Jinnian gave Wei Ting a rabbit leg and the rest were divided among the Ghost Shadow Guards.

He returned to the wagon and fed the two birds some bird feed.

The black crow ate with great relish.

The Five Tigers refused to eat.

Xie Jinnian touched the little parrot and said, "Are you unhappy in the cage?"

The Five Tigers were listless and ignored everyone.

Xie Jinnian hesitated for a moment, but still closed the cage.

The Five Tigers were shocked.

Are you not allowing the birds to go out for a stroll?!

Everyone was eating at the moment and no one was staring at Wei Ting.

But Zong Zhengming's carriage was not allowed to be approached by ordinary people, so it would be too abrupt for him to just pass by like that.

Just as Wei Ting was hesitating about how to create chaos, Cheng Lian in another carriage suddenly woke up.

When she opened her eyes, she was surrounded by darkness. She was so scared that she screamed and jumped off the carriage.

She didn't even look at him, but ran forward yelling, "Help, help!"

Wei Ting seized the opportunity and shot a stone at her back knee.

Cheng Lian's knees went weak and she uncontrollably crashed into Zong Zhengming's carriage in front of her.

Wei Ting tried to grab her, and at the same time, using his body as a cover, he slapped the carriage inconspicuously.

Boom! The bird cage was knocked down and the door was knocked open.

Two little birds fluttered their wings and flew out of the carriage.

By the time Xie Jinnian rushed over from Zong Zhengming's place, the Five Tigers and the Black Crow had already flown away. -Yin Chongshan went to the Cheng family to meet with Zong Zhenghui and begged him to return to the palace immediately to take charge of the situation.

However, even if someone opposed Zong Zhenghui, there was nothing they could do at this critical juncture.

The six major tribes went to the border, the Royal Guards were controlled, and the Holy Maiden Palace remained inactive. No force could deal with the troops of the Qinglong and Fuhu tribes.

Zong Zhenghui originally wanted to wait until Cheng Sang woke up before going, but the situation was urgent and Zong Zhengming had sent people to capture Cheng Sang, so it was more important to eliminate Zong Zhengming as soon as possible.

The Black Armor Guards continued to stay at the Cheng family.

Su Xiaoxiao, Gui Bu and Wei Liulang went back to Changliu Lane.

In Wei Qing's room, Wei Liulang told his elder brother about his speculation.

Wei Qing nodded: "I also think Xiao Qi should go to capture Zong Zhengming."

"Can he catch him alone? It will be terrible if his whereabouts are discovered!" Wei Liulang was worried about his brother.

Wei Qing thought for a moment and asked, "Did Xiao Qi leave any secret code?"

Wei Liulang shook his head: "My elder brother and I have looked around the palace, but we can't find him. Could something have happened to Xiaoqi?"

Wei Qing said: "Xiao Qi is very smart."

The brains of the top scholar are not exaggerated.

Wei Qing continued, "If he follows us along the way, he will definitely leave us a secret signal. If he doesn't leave a signal, there is only one possibility, that is, it is inconvenient for him."

Wei Liulang asked in confusion: "What do you mean by inconvenient?"

Wei Qing said: "He lurked beside the King of Southern Xinjiang. He was watched by the Ghost Shadow Guards, so he couldn't leave a secret signal."

Wei Liulang gasped! Xiao Qi was playing with his life? Is this something he could do? He didn't even have a chance to escape after being exposed!

Su Xiaoxiao also clenched her fingers.

Wei Qing pondered and said, "Wait a moment. If there is no news about Xiao Qi by tonight, we will head north early tomorrow morning."

Wei Liulang asked: "Why, second brother?"

Wei Qing analyzed: "Zong Zhengming is doomed in the capital. His only chance is to gather the forces of the six major tribes at the border, so he will definitely go north. By then, we will split up into several groups and go north along different official roads. I hope we can meet him before Xiao Qi gets into trouble."

Wei Liulang said worriedly, "But can Xiao Qi really hold on that long?"

Just when several people were worried about Wei Ting, the golden eagle mount ridden by the Five Tigers flew back in style!

It landed on the green lawn.

The golden eagle also carries its second new brother, the black crow, on its back.

The five tigers flew into the house proudly and landed in Su Xiaoxiao's arms.

I want to rub the sweet and soft place!

Su Xiaoxiao grabbed it out of her arms and said, "Do you know where Wei Ting is?"

Wu Hu: "Ji Dao!"

Su Xiaoxiao clicked her tongue: "How many times have I told you not to talk like Xiaohu!"

The three brothers looked at the Five Tigers expectantly.

Su Xiaoxiao asked again: "Where is Wei Ting?"

Five Tigers: "Birds are used to eating."

Su Xiaoxiao: "How many?"

The five tigers flapped their wings: "Ten! Ten!"

Su Xiaoxiao gave it three: "Tell me, where is Wei Ting?"

The five tigers folded their little wings: "Crack."

Su Xiaoxiao: “…”

Su Xiaoxiao pulled out a dagger and stabbed it on the table: "Don't force me to kill a bird."

The five tigers walked with their bird claws, step by step, like crabs, and walked sideways to Wei Liulang.

Wei Liulang held the five tigers in his palms, one for each man and one for each bird, with synchronized expressions, and they looked at Su Xiaoxiao innocently.

Su Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, smiled, and said, "When you lead us to find Wei Ting, I will give you not only ten, but also twenty."

The five tigers were so excited that their eyes sparkled: "OK—"

Wei Liulang covered its beak.

…

"Seven, eight, nine, ten, is that enough?"

Su Xiaoxiao, whose business of making big promises was intercepted by Wei Liulang, paid Wu Hu all the wages for his work.

The five tigers who got the bird food, along with their little brother Black Crow, proudly got on their golden eagle vehicles! The golden eagle roared and flapped its wings to fly high into the sky!

The Black Armored Guards have assembled, their cold armors glowing coldly in the night.

The horses they rode were also covered in black armor.

After five years, Gui Bu finally put on his armor again.

He brought Wei Yan, who was wearing silver armor, and in an instant he seemed to have returned to Suibei Pass.

He rode his horse to the front of the Black Armor Guards, coldly put down the armor mask, and waved his hand: "Let's go!" - Wei Ting carefully concealed his identity.

Everything was going very smoothly.

Near dawn, three of Zong Zhengming's confidants from the Jinwu Guards who were defeated by the Black Armor Guards found this place by following the marks left by the Ghost Shadow Guards.

They saw Wei Ting wearing the armor of the Royal Guards and were a little surprised.

How could someone arrive earlier than them?

"May I have your name?"

The deputy commander of the Jinwu Guard asked.

Wei Ting was hesitating whether to pretend to be asleep and ignore it.

A ghost guard said, "His name is Jiang Feng, and he made great contributions when he escorted His Majesty out of the palace."

"Jiang Feng?"

The deputy commander of the Jinwu Guards walked towards Wei Ting with a suspicious look on his face. He held up a torch and shone it over Wei Ting's head. His face changed, "You are not Jiang Feng!"

Have a nice day, start with an update.
