It’s a pity that the emperor’s support has not arrived yet, and Qin Xuezhen and Tang Xicheng actually found the Iron Cavalry Army first.
The two of them explored along the path and came to a dead forest outside the city wall, which was where the concubine and Yao Guangyue were hiding.
When they rushed over, they saw the Iron Cavalry resting, while General Mu was walking back and forth among them, as if he was inspecting them.
"General Mu? Didn't he leave with the imperial concubine? Why is he here? Could it be that their departure was just a cover?"
Qin Xuezhen couldn't help but speculate, and Tangxicheng thought the same thing.
What was even more difficult for him to accept was that the Iron Cavalry Army had actually joined forces with the Mu family. Had they betrayed him?
Finally, I changed my mind and thought that it shouldn't be the case. Even if the Iron Cavalry wanted to betray, they would defect to Kangnan. How could they have anything to do with the Mu family?
Tangxi Cheng thought about it and suddenly realized that the disappearance of the token was most likely related to Mu Chan.
It seems that Mu Chan took the token and impersonated him, which is why he was able to transfer the Iron Cavalry.
When I woke up that morning, Mu Chan was lying naked on top of me. I'm afraid he wasn't doing anything inappropriate.
He had just come back from outside and was about to change his clothes. If he had gone out that night, he must have gone to find the Iron Cavalry. It seemed that he knew there was something wrong with Kang Nan from the beginning and had found the Iron Cavalry in advance.
So they came all the way here not to investigate corruption, but to cover up their tracks and capture Kang Nan, the traitor who was serious about it.
In fact, he was really overthinking it. Mu Chan and the eldest prince did come here to catch corrupt officials, and it was just a coincidence that they came here to catch the traitor Kang Nan.
But there is one thing that Tangxi City was not wrong about.
"I'm afraid the imperial army will be arriving soon. These cavalry are hiding in the Wengcheng, not far from the imperial city. There are two iron mines here, which can be said to hold the economic lifeline of Yaoguang Nation. We must fight quickly and take the cavalry away as soon as possible."
Tang Xicheng's words made Qin Xue really nervous, and she asked the system with some fear.
[What should the system do now? Please help me figure out how to complete this task.]
The system was a little impatient and wasn't speaking as kindly as before.
"As the heroine, you should take the initiative to solve the hero's problems. Why do you have to ask me for everything? If I can do all this, then what's the point of you being the heroine?"
Qin Xue was so angry that she lost her temper. In desperation, she could only rack her brains to think about it.
"Your Highness, if that's the case, then why not lure one of the Iron Cavalry out, impersonate him, and approach the leader of the Iron Cavalry. This way, we can verify your identity."
Qin Xue really used her brain for once, and the effect was pretty good.
Tangxi City approved of her idea, so they looked for an opportunity and finally found a lone person.
Tangxi Cheng rushed out and killed the lone cavalryman with one blow. After killing him, he changed into his clothes and sneaked in.
Fortunately, most of these cavalrymen wore iron masks. They were well-trained and basically did not talk nonsense when they met. This gave him a good opportunity.
Then Tangxicheng came to the leader of the Iron Cavalry and threw a piece of wood at him.
The leader was confused at first, then he picked up the piece of wood and took a look, and found that it was actually the tattoo pattern of a member of the royal family of Chixiao Kingdom.
He immediately realized that something was wrong. This cavalry was carefully trained by Kangnan, and the leader was carefully selected by his grandfather outside Tangxi City and placed here.
Although he saw the token at that time and mistook Mu Chan for Tangxi City, he still had doubts in his heart.
After they were transferred to this forest, they were asked to rest there.
But it’s okay to hide one or two people in this dense forest, but hiding such a large army, wouldn’t it be easily discovered?
There is nothing big to do, so why stay here instead of returning to Chixiao Country as soon as possible?
Moreover, after they came here, they actually saw a woman holding a child. They had never heard that His Royal Highness the City King was married and had children?
Thinking of this, the leader of the Iron Cavalry Army felt more and more strange, but he did not suspect the Yaoguang Kingdom.
Instead, he thought that Conan might have betrayed his master and wanted to do something to the Iron Cavalry?
So after receiving the piece of wood, he left the army without saying a word.
When I arrived at a small bush far away from the dense forest, I saw a cavalryman in front of me take off his helmet, revealing his true face.
It has to be said that the leader of the Iron Cavalry Army was quite capable. The moment he saw Tangxi City, he realized that the person in front of him was the master they should be looking for.
"Who are you……?"
"Tangxi City!"
The truth was revealed, and the leader of the Iron Cavalry instantly admitted the other party's identity.
"Master? You are the real master!"
Tang Xicheng didn't expect that the other party would believe him so easily, so he asked subconsciously.
"Do you believe in this king?"
"The tattoo totem of the royal family of Chixiao Nation cannot be wrong, and you look very similar to the old master."
This is true. Tang Xicheng looks like his uncle's family, and not much like the emperor.
This also caused him to be out of favor in the Chixiao Kingdom. Perhaps his grandfather's family had long wanted to seize the throne, so they left a lot of escape routes for Tangxi City.
"Although you have never seen me, you can tell the real from the fake at a glance, which makes me feel very relieved. However, I don't quite understand why you are still with the Mu family of Yaoguang Country after arriving here."
The Iron Cavalry had never seen the Mu family, but they had heard that this family was a powerful weapon against the Chixiao Kingdom.
The leader of the Iron Cavalry was somewhat resentful because he had not expected that they would mingle with the enemy.
"I didn't expect to be used! Your Highness, you may not know that last night a young man came here with your token, claiming to be the prince of the Scarlet Sky Nation. After we saw the token, we followed him here without any suspicion."
"But after spending a day here, I felt something was amiss. Such a large army hiding in a desolate forest, isn't this a joke? I never thought it would be like this!"
Tang Xicheng sighed deeply. Fortunately, he found it quickly, otherwise this cavalry would have been surrounded and killed.
"As expected, I guessed that the Mu family must be behind this, but I didn't expect them to be so bold. Are they really not afraid of being discovered by you and eventually getting into trouble?"
