Zhou Jiaojiao was pulled over before she could react.
On the way, she used her merits to update the system, and only then did she know what happened that night. She quickly asked the system: "What is Chen Lin doing now?"
"She is already holding the military token and approaching the gate of the prefectural government." said the system.
When Zhou Jiaojiao heard about the military token, her brows raised. After listening to the system's detailed explanation, she realized that the military token was the military token of the Dragon Guard in the Yuzhou garrison. Whoever got the military token could command the Dragon Guard, which had about two thousand people. Generally speaking, the military token of the Dragon Guard was in the hands of the emperor's confidants. Perhaps it was the special nature of the Great Chu Dynasty. With this military token, anyone could command the Dragon Guard. It should have been prepared for the princes, but it ended up in Chen Lin's hands.
When Zhou Jiaojiao walked to the gate, she happened to see Shen Lin riding on horseback, with thousands of Dragon Guards behind him, confronting Mo Congwu.
"Sir Magistrate, I advise you to hand over Zhou Jiaojiao immediately. As long as you hand her over, I will leave with the Dragon Guards immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for burning down your prefecture." Shen Lin said angrily to Mo Congwu.
Mo Congwu took off his official uniform, revealing the armor underneath. He shouted, "How dare you, you thief! You stole my Yuzhou military token, and you still want to be so arrogant on my territory? Do you really think I look easy to bully?"
Mo Congwu raised his hand, and instantly several teams of people appeared side by side from the provincial capital.
Seeing this, Shen Lin seemed to have caught him and started shouting, "You are so good, the governor of Yuzhou, you actually stole military power. You are guilty of treason!"
"Dragon Guards, seeing this, are you still indifferent?"
The dragon guards said nothing, they just took out their weapons.
The atmosphere on both sides suddenly became tense.
It was at this time that Zhou Jiaojiao noticed that Shen Lin's luck was rising. She was startled and felt that the biggest reason for the other party's rise was that Long Wei's lethality was very strong, which enhanced her strength. Mo Congwu seemed to be good, but he was a little weak inside.
Zhou Jiaojiao did not go out, but took advantage of the stalemate between the two to meet up with Chu San.
"Husband." Zhou Jiaojiao stood at the corner of the wall, waiting for Chu San to jump down. She pulled his arm and said quickly, "We have to snatch the military token from Chen Lin's hand."
"What can you do?"
Chu San said: "Chen Lin's tendons are still broken. She came to you not only to get the antidote, but also to harm you. You can't show up..."
Before Chu San could finish his words, Zhou Jiaojiao rejected him. It was not that she was trying to be stubborn, but just at that moment, she saw the check-in point appear on Chen Lin's body!
This means that she is likely to be able to sign the things in her space from the other person, just like the thunder before. Zhou Jiaojiao's breathing became rapid. She grabbed Chu San's arm and said, "Husband, send me to Shen Lin. I just need to touch her. I have a way to trick the military talisman out of her body."
"My dear, no, it's too dangerous." Chu San thought of Mrs. Zhao who was crushed to death. He frowned, his face full of worry, and said, "Mrs. Zhao was crushed to death by the cabinets that suddenly appeared. Chen Lin's heart has long been dark. She hates you the most and there's no way she'll be soft on you. Besides, I saw her search Lord Wang's house last night and take away all those weapons. If she takes them out instantly, even I might not be able to avoid the sudden drop of weapons from the sky in two breaths of time."
"Husband, we must give it a try. You are strong, and I have the Thunderbolt. As long as we can avoid Chen Lin's counterattack and get the military talisman, we can completely weaken her strength. If we succeed, we won't have to worry about her threat anymore."
Chu San might have been moved by her last words.
Although Chen Lin has been imprisoned during this period, she always manages to cause trouble. Chu San watches her vigilantly day and night, and he always gets tired of it. He really doesn't want to deal with her anymore.
"Okay, I'll give it a try." Chu San finally agreed.
Zhou Jiaojiao prepared some first aid medicines in the system in advance to avoid getting injured and being rescued in time. She made all preparations.
She walked to the gate of the prefectural government.
"Zhou Jiaojiao!"
When Shen Lin saw her, she gritted her teeth and said immediately, "Come here, give me the antidote, and we will settle our grudges."
Zhou Jiaojiao nodded and said, "Okay, I can give it to you, but we have to go to the city gate to trade. I don't trust you, and don't even think about taking advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble in the city."
The losses in the city were too great, and there was not much room for escape, so going to the city gate was the most appropriate option.
Chen Lin seemed to have considered the issue of escape. If she failed at the city gate, she would still have a chance to escape, so she agreed.
Mo Congwu was really worried, so he personally led several teams of people, about a thousand people, to escort Zhou Jiaojiao over.
"Miss Zhou, who is this person and what's going on?"
Zhou Jiaojiao lowered her voice and said, "Master Mo, I'll explain this person's situation to you later. Now let's trick the military token out of her hand first. Otherwise, let her take the Dragon Guard away? Who knows, by tomorrow, when Wuzhou gets the news, they will definitely come and cause trouble."
"Hmph, Wuzhou..." Mo Congwu was furious, but he asked curiously, "Miss Zhou, I've been asking about your business lately. Did you get the grain from Tan County? But what about the grain from Wuzhou? How did you transport it here?"
Zhou Jiaojiao heard the temptation in his words, but she didn't find it strange. Interests are the driving force behind people's hearts. If her space was discovered by the world, no one would treat her as a saint. Instead, they would become selfish and eager to imprison and exploit her. By then, she would be worse than an animal.
Chen Lin is now trapped in this vicious circle. Unless she can continue to control tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of soldiers to protect her, she will always be in a situation where she is being used or imprisoned.
"Lord Mo will know in a while." Zhou Jiaojiao said hesitantly.
Mo Congwu felt even more itchy in his heart after hearing her words. He couldn't help but scratch his hair and grinned.
Seeing Zhou Jiaojiao looking over, he smiled sheepishly, "Excuse me, Miss Zhou. Actually, I'm just curious. If there's any way to transport food, can we also arrange for people to transport medicinal herbs? That way, we don't have to worry about the people in the capital being left without medicine due to this epidemic."
The more Mo Congwu spoke, the more he felt that this was a good idea.
Zhou Jiaojiao nodded: "It is a blessing for everyone that Lord Mo is concerned about the people, but this matter is not something I can decide. Wait a moment, no matter what happens, Lord Mo must remain calm. I also ask Lord Mo to rescue me in time, and I will be satisfied."
