Chapter 222 Joining the Army
Hearing this, the Regent's eyes finally showed a slight change, and then he asked, "How is he doing recently?"
Liu Rumeng noticed the change in the other party's tone, which clearly showed that he still had a little concern for Pei Jingyuan, and she suddenly felt happy.
She thought of the purpose of coming here today, and said, "Today, I came here for my son's matter. The Prince of Yu and the Sixth Prince of Daxia have been deposed, and the Prince of Qin is wearing the same pants as Pei Jingchuan. Jingyuan doesn't know what to do recently. He asked me to ask you if you have any suggestions. Who can he turn to now?"
"I really didn't expect that the two princes of Daxia are so useless. The King of Qin naturally cannot use them, and he needs to be overthrown. Under the current circumstances, it would be best if the King of Qin died as well, and then let the prince succeed to the throne. At that time, he can overthrow Daxia on the grounds of overthrowing the prince's incompetent rule. However, under the current circumstances, Jingyuan still needs strength. Let's do this! You go back and tell him to let him infiltrate the Duke of Ying's army first. As for the King of Qin, I will find a way to deal with him, and he only needs to infiltrate the army. It would be best if he can control and bribe some people in the army. Then I will be useful to him." The Regent thought for a while and ordered.
"Go to the army...ah..." Liu Rumeng was wondering, but before she could finish her words, she heard the sound of someone falling from the roof with a sword.
A murderous intent came over them. It was Pei Jingchuan and his men. They spent some time to find Liu Rumeng and a man in this house. In order to successfully capture the regent, Pei Jingchuan had the secret guards hide in all directions of the house, and then led a secret guard to fall from the roof with a sword and hit the regent directly.
The Regent was also skilled in martial arts. He immediately threw Liu Rumeng aside, quickly picked up his sword from the house, and started fighting with Pei Jingchuan and the others.
At the same time, the sound of fighting in the house alarmed the outside. The regent's men wanted to come in to help, but were entangled by Pei Jingchuan's men outside. Therefore, the regent's situation in the house suddenly became dangerous, he was one against three.
Within half a minute, the Regent was clearly no match for Pei Jingchuan and his men, and Pei Jingchuan was about to rush forward and capture the Regent alive. But just as Pei Jingchuan approached the Regent, the Regent kicked over the table with all his might, and the table rushed towards Pei Jingchuan, a hole quickly appeared on the ground, and the Regent jumped up.
"Oh no, he escaped!" the secret guard exclaimed.
After Pei Jingchuan kicked the table away, he quickly ran to the entrance of the cave and looked down. He saw a green, bottomless underground lake!
"Master, I'll jump down and chase him right away!" The secret guard next to him was about to leap, but was stopped by Pei Jingchuan.
"Don't chase a desperate enemy. We don't know what traps are down there." Pei Jingchuan stopped them.
"Take Aunt Liu back!" Pei Jingchuan said as he looked at Liu Rumeng, who was sitting on the ground with a pale face due to fear.
Today, they were completely exposed, and it was meaningless to keep Liu Rumeng. This regent was too cunning, and it seemed that they had to find another way in the future.
——British Mansion——
"Father, please spare my aunt's life! After all, she has been with you for so many years and gave birth to me for you!" Pei Jingyuan begged for mercy.
Pei Jingchuan brought Concubine Liu to the Duke of England, and the Duke of England's secret guards also told him about Concubine Liu's meeting with the Regent. However, when they went there, they did not hear Liu Rumeng tell the other party that Pei Jingyuan was the Regent's son, so the secret guards did not tell the Duke of England.
Originally, Duke Ying believed Xu Qingyan's inner complaints that Liu Rumeng was a spy. Now that his own people had seen it with their own eyes, he was 100% sure. For so many years, he had hidden the spy in his house and had a son with the spy! As a general of Daxia, this was undoubtedly the greatest shame of his life!
"Shut up! She has done so many bad things, there is no way I can let her live! Come, drag Madam Liu away and beat her to death with sticks!" The Duke of England said angrily.
At the same time, he was also thankful that no disaster had occurred yet. Pei Jingyuan and Liu Rumeng cried even harder when they heard that she was going to be beaten to death, but the Duke of England didn't care about their crying at all and just had Liu Rumeng dragged away.
Pei Jingyuan wanted to rush out, but he was held tightly and couldn't move. Hatred continued to flow from his eyes, which was also seen by Pei Jingchuan.
Liu Rumeng's cries became weaker and weaker. She looked towards Pei Jingyuan with pleading eyes.
Pei Jingyuan was in great pain. He used all his strength and finally broke through the guards' grip. He rushed to Liu Rumeng and cried out, "Mom! Don't die, I'm here to save you!"
But Liu Rumeng desperately whispered three words in Pei Jingyuan's ear: "Go... to... the army."
As soon as Liu Rumeng finished speaking, she closed her eyes and died.
After the servant checked the body, he reported to Duke Ying: "Duke, the person is dead. What should we do now?"
The Duke of England waved his hand and said, "Go dig a hole in the mountains and bury it."
He didn't care about Pei Jingyuan's emotions at all, he just felt that by solving Liu Rumeng's problem, he solved a big problem. Only Pei Jingchuan was secretly observing everything about Pei Jingyuan. Now that Liu Rumeng was dead, the only one who could contact the regent in the future was Pei Jingyuan.
After all, he still thought Pei Jingyuan was his biological son. After Liu Rumeng died, Pei Jingyuan fell ill due to grief.
The Duke of England did not care too much about him. As for the son born to him by this spy, he would never allow him to stay in the court of Daxia and develop.
So, he was thinking of sending Pei Jingyuan to a remote place. But he didn't expect that at this time, Pei Jingyuan actually took the initiative to find him and said that he wanted to join his army and go there as an ordinary soldier.
Of course, he disagreed with this, after all, his blood was not pure, and he had the blood of a foreign spy, but after Pei Jingchuan found out, he came to him and asked him to agree. Pei Jingchuan said that this was to lure out the regent of the enemy country, so the Duke of England agreed.
After all, he still put national justice first. If a poisonous snake like the Regent who was lurking in the dark of Daxia was not caught, it would not be a good thing for them.
After Pei Jingyuan got the consent of the Duke of Ying, he thought of Chen Xing, whom he brought back. Although he didn't know why the poison of Prince Yu failed, he still felt that Chen Xing's ability could be used. He wanted to take Chen Xing with him to the army, intending to use Chen Xing's ability to control those people in the Duke of Ying's army in the future.
However, he didn't expect that when he went to find Chen Xing, he was rejected by her.
"Xing'er, what are you talking about? Are you confused? This time, you came back to Beijing with me, aren't you planning to marry me?" Pei Jingyuan looked at Chen Xing in disbelief. She had just told him that she wanted to leave the capital and leave him.
