Chapter 835 - 814: If you can’t find the person, then there’s no need for anyone to return!
Chapter 835: Chapter 814: If you can’t find the person, then there’s no need for anyone to return!
The thought pierced Su Pan’er’s heart like a knife!
Tears mingled with the dumplings she stuffed into her mouth. After chewing briefly, she swallowed them together with the remaining soup.
By the time she had finished the dumplings and drank the last of the soup, Su Pan’er stood up again, her face was tearless, but filled with a chilling killing intent!
Now that she was full and satisfied, it was time to do what she must do! Yan Yan, don’t be afraid, Mother is coming to save you!
Having sprinted a distance, Qin Yi quietly gave an order to a trusted follower, "Go, find out what has happened to the lady, why she is behaving so abnormally!"
The follower reined his horse, responded with a fist salute, but instead turned his horse around and bolted back along the path they had come from.
By the time he reached the pitched camp in the barracks area, Su Pan’er had already left on horseback.
Qin Yi also turned his horse around, heading for Old Cheng’s tent. He did not dare to delay any longer and directly barged into Old Cheng’s tent.
Old Cheng was discussing the current military situation with a few leaders from the Valley of Ghosts. Seeing Qin Yi burst in, he quickly welcomed him.
"Young Master!"
Old Cheng hurriedly came forward to bow.
Qin Yi raised his hand, stopping Old Cheng from saying more. He threw off his cloak, majestically seated himself in the Main Seat, and swept a gaze over everyone present.
"You all must have heard about the progress of the war. Let’s hear your opinions."
What opinions could they possibly have?
The various leaders looked at each other, then spoke freely one after another.
"Young Master, judging from the actions of the army led by the Virtuous King, they appear to aim at attacking the Wumeng Department, but their real target is us. I think Qin Zitong might still harbor the intention of recruiting Young Mister Qin."
Initially, Qin Yi had secretly taken his people and left the Jingzhao Prefecture without alarming anyone.
When Qin Feimo issued the decree of guilt, abdicating to become the Virtuous King, Qin Zitong did not miss a chance to recruit Qin Yi through various means.
Now that Qin Zitong had commanded the Virtuous King to lead troops against them, it was likely that there was also a sense of fury and humiliation involved.
As the topic was raised, everyone began to talk at once; each had their point of view. Most of these troops were remnants of the Ghost Valley Gate, whose doorkeepers bore deep hatred for the Imperial Court. How could they be swayed by Qin Zitong’s recruitment? The majority held opposition.
Qin Yi listened silently, recalling the secret discussions he’d had with a few Deputy Generals. Half of them were in favor of siding with Qin Zitong, while the other half supported moving closer to the Wumeng Department. Reflecting on it now, it seemed somewhat strange...
"Is there any news from Huang Weixin? What do you think about it?" he asked.
Seeing Qin Yi frown, Old Cheng couldn’t help but inquire.
Without showing any emotion, Qin Yi shook his head and countered, "What do you think?"
"Huang Weixin would not deliberately let Qin Feimo into the city. Others might, but does Huang Weixin need to do that?"
Old Cheng let out a few cold laughs, "Now with all this commotion, who knows how many are waiting to see the spectacle. If Huang Weixin allowed him into the city, it would be tantamount to betraying the King of Wumeng. For those who have long wished they could legitimately eliminate him, aside from Qin Zitong’s forces, there must also be insiders from the Wumeng Department. Once he’s truly dead, they can rest easy. Even if Huang Weixin were a fool, he wouldn’t fulfill others’ wishes."
As Old Cheng spoke, those present couldn’t help but nod in agreement.
Qin Yi tapped his finger lightly on the tabletop.
His voice was deep and steady, "Since even you think Huang Weixin wouldn’t do it, could it be that Huang Weixin is stupider than you and me?"
"Huang Weixin must have fallen into someone else’s trap."
Old Cheng concluded, and only this explanation made sense.
The King of Wumeng had sent Huang Weixin to take charge of Lin City, precisely to test his true loyalty. Now, Huang Weixin had unwittingly fallen into someone else’s trap, leaving them in a dilemma over what move to make next.
Qin Yi naturally understood as well, and couldn’t help but sneer, "Huang Weixin is no ordinary man; to have been caught by a trap shows the other party has superb methods. Otherwise, it means they caught him completely off guard!"
Although they didn’t know the exact situation, it had to be something like this!
Old Cheng sighed repeatedly, "The methods these people use to harm others are truly indefensible. They just need to dispatch a few people to lurk in Lin City, collaborate from inside and out, and Huang Weixin, being new to the area, could easily be ensnared. If they then use the King of Wumeng’s authority to transfer Huang Weixin away, knock him unconscious in an isolated place, and open the city gates to let the troops in, it would be all too easy."
Everyone nodded in agreement at his words.
Qin Yi secretly sighed. Currently, he was blocked by Jun Ruochen’s army on several fronts, and the Virtuous King’s army had invaded the Wumeng Department, causing everyone in the Wumeng Department to be exhausted from dealing with the onslaught. They were also spread too thin to look for Huang Weixin, and could only hope that he would have a stroke of good luck and escape this disaster.
Thinking this, Old Cheng couldn’t help but worry, "If Huang Weixin really gets taken out and then dies without explanation, I’m afraid it’ll be impossible to shake off this blame."
History is written by the victors; if Huang Weixin died, it was unlikely that the King of Wumeng would stand up for a recently surrendered general who had just died, and Huang Weixin would almost certainly be stuck with this infamy.
Qin Yi’s hawk’s eyes deepened with intent, staring into the void, seemingly thinking of something, as a blood-red color spread across the depths of his eyes.
After discussing, Qin Yi still decided to lead a team of men to the front, getting ready for the next battle.
Just then, the confidant who had been sent to investigate Su Pan’er’s intentions returned.
He whispered into Qin Yi’s ear, causing his brows to furrow and his hawk’s eyes to widen in alarm!
"Is this really true?"
"Reporting to Lord Marquis, this matter is absolutely true. However, no news has come from Jun Ruochen’s side. Perhaps the lady was mistaken?"
Anxious, Qin Yi paced back and forth in the tent, anger rising, he lifted his hand and punched the table, smashing it to pieces under the force of his rage!
The personal soldier was so scared that he immediately kneeled down, not daring to utter another word!
"This matter couldn’t possibly be mistaken!"
Qin Yi gnashed his teeth in rage, his eyes filling with blood-red hatred that permeated his entire pupils.
"Su Xian’er, you deserve to die!"
His words squeezed out through his teeth, one by one, then he abruptly stood up, "Where is my wife? Is the lady still here?"
"Reporting to Lord Marquis, the lady has already left, and her whereabouts are unknown!"
Unknown whereabouts?
How could she be unaccounted for at a time like this? Qin Yi immediately became furious!
The personal soldier, prostrate on the ground, trembled uncontrollably, unable to say half a word.
"Search! Go find her for me immediately. If you cannot find her, I’ll have you buried with her!"
Qin Yi was outraged!
His struggle, his fighting against enemies to the death, it was all for a joyful family, to protect Pan’er, to have a happy home.
But now, the goal he had worked so hard for had suddenly collapsed. What was the point of his struggling so fiercely?
"Search, go find her for me quickly! If you can’t find her, then don’t bother coming back!"
