This kid's martial arts skills are a little bit worse, and his family background is also a little worse, but fortunately he is quite obedient, so he feels quite relieved to have him by his side.
Shi Jian's eyes swept across Wang Dadao's frostbitten face, ears, and hands.
Hearing what Wang Dadao said, he frowned.
"What's going on?"
How come his life is in danger?
Is there someone in Lingxiao City who wants to harm him?
Shi Jian looked around vigilantly, and after not finding any suspicious people around, his eyes fell on Wang Dadao.
Wang Dadao looked back at the Wu Ma family's old house in panic, then turned to look at Shi Jian.
"General, this matter is of great importance. We must leave here before we can discuss it."
Does anyone know if there are any members of the Wu Ma family nearby?
If he stood on the street and told the secret of the Wu Ma family, both of their heads might fall to the ground the next moment.
Shi Jian watched Wang Dadao's actions and looked at the Wu Ma family's old house in front of him with confusion.
Shi Jian frowned at Wang Dadao's nervous and frightened expression.
"Where do you live?"
Wang Dadao heaved a sigh of relief when he heard it, and pointed to the inn not far away.
"I live in that inn."
"I am the only one staying in the inn, so it's convenient for us to talk."
There was no one on the entire second floor of the inn, so there was no need to worry about walls having ears.
However, the inn was very close to the old house of the Wu Ma family, so he was still a little uneasy.
Shi Jian looked back at the inn not far away, put away his sword, and looked at Wang Dadao.
"lead the way!"
The inn was not far from the old house of the Wu Ma family. He would still have time to go there to listen to the military intelligence before going to the Wu Ma family.
Judging from Wang Dadao's appearance, this military intelligence seems to be somewhat related to the Wu Ma family.
Wang Dadao nodded and bowed in response, then hurriedly walked to the front to lead the way.
After a few people entered the inn, the innkeeper, who was lazily lying on the counter, raised his eyelids and glanced at them.
“How many rooms should we open?!”
Wang Dadao waved his hand and said, "No, let's go to my room and talk."
The shopkeeper glanced at the few people, looked at the swords they were carrying, pursed his lips and said nothing.
Shi Jian stood in the lobby of the inn and looked around vigilantly. He pricked up his ears and listened carefully. After making sure that there was no one upstairs, he followed Wang Dadao to the second floor.
"General, please come in."
Wang Dadao pushed open the door and looked at Shi Jian.
Shi Jian had a stern face and scanned the room before he walked in.
"Speak!"
Shi Jian turned and looked at Wang Dadao.
Wang Dadao glanced at the six guards following Shi Jian and frowned in embarrassment.
"General, could you spare me a moment? This matter is of great importance, and the fewer people who know about it, the better."
This news could either catapult him to great heights or cost him his head.
The more people know, the more dangerous it is. Of course, the fewer people who know, the better.
Shi Jian looked at Wang Dadao with dissatisfaction, frowning.
"What you say better be very important, otherwise... hmph!"
Shi Jian snorted coldly and raised his chin towards the guards.
"You guys go guard the door. Anyone who comes near will be killed!"
"Yes!" The guards responded, walked out in unison and closed the door.
Shi Jian glanced at the closed door, his eyes fell lightly on Wang Dadao's face.
"explain!!"
Wang Dadao looked back cautiously, glanced at the window, and took two steps towards Shi Jian.
He took a deep breath.
"General, after my subordinates went to Chiyan City, they discovered that the Yongchang Kingdom was actually created by the Wuma family."
"The Wu Ma family's claim that the old patriarch was killed and that they brought a large number of assassins to Xinyue City to avenge the old patriarch is actually a lie."
"The Wu Ma family and General Cong have joined forces. If you enter the Wu Ma family's house now, you might not be able to get out!!!"
Wang Dali told all the important information in one breath.
Shi Jian's eyes widened, his eyebrows raised, his eyes full of fear and disbelief.
"really!!?"
"You can't talk nonsense about this matter. It's a serious matter."
If the Wu Ma family wants to rebel, is it necessary to go through so much trouble?
He really couldn't believe that the Wu Ma family went through so much trouble just to rebel?
With the strength of the Wu Ma family in Lingxiao City, wouldn't it be faster to go directly to the palace, kill the empress and replace her?
Although the secret guards around His Majesty are also very powerful, they are not as numerous as the Wu Ma family's death squad. If a real fight breaks out, the Wu Ma family's death squad will definitely win.
He couldn't understand why the Wu Ma family went to such great lengths to find Cong Chongqiu.
If he were to say, it would be better for the Wu Ma family to cooperate with him than with Cong Chongqiu.
"It is absolutely true, General!"
Wang Dadao looked at Shi Jian's disbelief and raised his voice anxiously.
"I personally saw General Cong and the Wu Ma family living together in the Wu Ma family's house."
"General, think about it. The Wu Ma family's house is guarded by many assassins. How could they let anyone in casually?"
"But General Cong came in and out as if he were entering his own home."
"and....."
Wang Dali took a deep breath, his eyelids trembling slightly, and he was a little hesitant about whether to tell him about the King of Zhenbei.
"And what!?" Shi Jian frowned and stared at Wang Dadao.
Wang Dadao's mouth twitched twice, his eyelids drooped, and he said with a determined heart,
"And the King of Zhenbei is a direct descendant of the Wuma family."
He saw with his own eyes the King of Zhenbei sitting at the first seat in the main hall of the Wuma family.
Only the direct descendants of the Wu Ma family can enter the Wu Ma family’s house and sit in the first seat.
Everyone in Xiliang knew about this.
There are houses of the Wu Ma family in every city of Xiliang Kingdom, and those houses are guarded by the side branches of the Wu Ma family.
Those from the side branches who usually live in the house are not allowed to sit in the first seat in the main hall.
Even if there were no direct descendants of the Wu Ma family present, they could not sit in the first seat.
Shi Jian's eyes instantly widened like copper bells, and he looked at Wang Dadao in shock.
"Which direct descendant of the Wu Ma family?"
All the direct descendants of the Wu Ma family are in Lingxiao City and the Imperial City. I haven't heard of anyone leaving.
Ever since the news that the old patriarch of the Wu Ma family was killed by Cong Chongqiu reached the imperial city, the direct descendants of the Wu Ma family began to compete for the position of the old patriarch.
Even the death squad was sent to Xinyue City to collect the old patriarch's body.
At such a critical moment, who among the direct descendants of the Wu Ma family would dare to leave?
Who knows who will become the head of the Wu Ma family after returning from Xinyue City.
The direct lineage is not so united, and everyone has his own little calculations.
Wang Dadao was stunned, frowned and shook his head.
"I just took a quick glance and saw the King of Zhenbei sitting at the first seat in the main hall of the Wuma family."
"I was afraid that if I got any closer, the enemy would discover me, so I hurried back."
