Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 107, Shangshanhu in the cage, Liu Hong, and Xiao En join forces
Liu Hong just listened to Sean's story quietly, without saying a word, like a statue.

Even this old man is still the king of spies, and if he is not careful, a lot of information will be discovered about him.

So Liu Hong decided to speak less, make fewer mistakes, and try not to speak.

Sean's eyes showed disappointment.

When Uesugi Tora's personal guards had gathered and put on heavy armor, they walked towards the two of them.

Liu Hongcai spoke slowly.

"I don't want to be stained with your blood, so let Lang Tao do this."

"You are indeed conspiring with Ku He, but it doesn't matter. I am also a dying man anyway."

Sean's eyes first flashed with light, and then he shook his head in disappointment.

This was not the information he most wanted to hear.

Liu Hong clapped his hands and held Sean's shoulders.

"Do you still have room for regret now? Otherwise, don't blame me for backstabbing you."

Sean was surprised when he felt the strong power transmitted to his palm.

"I didn't expect that you have also entered the ninth rank. If I wasn't about to die, you wouldn't have revealed your strength."

"I told you that you didn't have to die, but you insisted on going to die."

Liu Hong withdrew his hand.

"If I don't go, Fan Xian will die! Chen Pingping doesn't want to see us, grandfather and grandson, live in peace."

Sean slowly stood up, feeling a little weightless and swaying.

Uesugi Tora hurried over, supported Sean, and looked worried.

Although Sean was once a peak ninth-grade warrior, he had been tortured in the Inspectorate for so many years, was poisoned by various poisons, and was trapped in a dark cage, and he was also old.

I'm afraid that Sean's current combat capability is no different from that of Liu Hong, a newly promoted ninth-rank warrior, and he is more likely to collapse.

"Now that the warhorse is ready, let's take action."

Liu Hong didn't care about the scene of loving father and filial son between the two and spoke slowly.

"General, you should be in the palace now and get the consent of the Queen Mother and His Majesty before leaving the capital. This could easily be seen as treason."

Uesugi Tora stood there in a daze.

No, he was already wearing the armor, and Liu Hong told him to go to the palace first.

Sean seemed to have thought of something, nodded, and pushed away Uesugi Tiger's support.

"Godfather, I'll go first."

Uesugi Tiger looked at Liu Hong deeply, his eyes full of warning.

He is not a stupid person. Something must have happened between his adoptive father and Liu Hong.

Only after Uesugi Tiger left did Liu Hong look at Sean with a smile.

"Old man, please write two more letters."

"You little brat, no wonder you can do something under the eyes of Chen Pingping and Emperor Qing. I didn't have such vigilance back then!"

Sean cursed with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes.

This is naked distrust!

Maybe in Liu Hong's eyes, he was chattering all the time, pretending to be an old man, and then turning the passive position into the active one to find out the news.

In fact, it was just to prevent Liu Hong from seeing the two letters he wrote.

This is simply judging others by one's own standards! Would Sean really do such a thing?

Sean walked to the desk, burned the two letters expressionlessly, and started writing again in front of Liu Hong.

Liu Hong compared the formats of the two letters and nodded in satisfaction when he found that there was little difference.

He didn't want to be tricked by the coded words in Sean's letter, even though Sean's main purpose might not be against him.

"Uesugi Tora went to the palace to report the news. The younger generation Lang Tao will probably get the news as well."

Sean handed the letter to Liu Hong and asked him to check it carefully.

He had discovered Liu Hong, and he had made up his mind that he did not want to be involved in his own death at Liu Hong's hands.

"Master Xiao, you are too serious. I am just afraid of death."

Liu Hong smiled awkwardly.

It was already late at night when Shangshan Hu returned from the palace. He sat on the ground with a gloomy face and spoke in a muffled voice. "The little emperor doesn't agree with my leaving Kyoto, but the guards can. Liu Hong blames you for giving such a bad idea!"

"General, this is the safest move. Now you know how much the royal family fears you, the war god of Northern Qi."

Liu Hong burst out laughing.

His original plan was just to kidnap Shang Shanhu's personal guards. With the help of his deputy general Tan Wu, he would be able to come and go freely in the second prince's private army.

After all, in the territory of Northern Qi, the Second Prince could at most send one or two battalions of private troops.

Who would have thought that Uesugi Tiger would be the first to be moved and ready to rescue Fan Xian personally, and then Sean would also take action.

Uesugi Tora turned his head to the side in annoyance, not wanting to listen to Liu Hong.

He knew very well that he could no longer leave Shangjing. Unless he broke off relations with the royal family, he would be trapped in a cage.

"In that case, it would be perfect for me to go. I also want to meet this junior Shen Zhong. The Second Prince of Nanqing will probably make a move as well."

A sense of heroism burst out from Sean's chest.

The originally old body stood up straight, bursting with countless energy and vitality.

Seeing this, Liu Hong subconsciously wanted to slap himself.

Why didn’t I think of that Sean and Ku He were practicing a secret book together, and this secret book is the Tianyi Dao Kung Fu!

According to Sean and Haitang Duoduo's understanding of the exercises, they can actually be comparable to Ku He to a certain extent.

After all, Ku He became a grandmaster not just by relying on the Tianyi Dao techniques, but also by Western Italian magic.

"Let's get going now without further delay!"

Sean took the warhorse from Tan Wu, turned over and jumped, sitting steadily on the warhorse.

Uesugi Tora suddenly spoke up.

“Godfather…!”

"Tiger, don't think too much. I will come back after saving Fan Xian. With your five hundred heavily armored cavalry, even a ninth-rank master will not be able to assassinate me."

Liu Hong also sat on his warhorse and remained silent.

Uesugi Tora showed signs of struggle and hesitated for a long time before slowly nodding.

This delay occurred because Uesugi Tora went to the palace to request an imperial decree.

It was already dark, but in the face of the order from General Uesugi Tora, the city defense troops still obediently opened the city gates.

"Where is the Nanqing delegation now?"

Sean narrowed his eyes slightly and observed the dark environment around him.

After decades in the dark dungeon of the Overwatch Council, he had long since become able to ignore darkness.

Liu Hong raised his whip and pointed towards Qianlong Bay.

"Let's go to the nearby garrison post! But we will definitely pass by Black Wind Ridge in a few days. There are many bandits there, and there are no Northern Qi garrisons stationed there. If we want to kill Fan Xian, this is the best place."

"My grandson is a bit troublesome. Not only did he provoke Shen Zhong, but he also dragged Nanqing's Second Prince and Princess into this."

Sean shook his head, looking helpless, but his tone was full of pride.

Only mediocre people cannot attract the attention of others.

"It's getting dark now, which is not conducive for cavalry operations. Go slower."

Liu Hong noticed several bodyguards who were hurriedly returning to the team from the rear.

If Uesugi Tora had not treated his personal guards well and they did not have night blindness, Liu Hong would not have dared to let Sean lead the cavalry on a night march.

Otherwise, in the middle of the night, hundreds of guards could get lost in one night.

Sean pondered for a moment and nodded slowly.

There are still a few days left, no need to rush.

The delegation's defense force was not weak, including the city defense army, two hundred gangster soldiers, and three hundred veterans from the Qing Kingdom.

It would be difficult to tackle this tough problem relying solely on the 800 private soldiers that Shen Zhong had mobilized.

"In that case, we will set up camp here tonight, and you can also pass the news to Lang Tao."

Sean whispered a few words to his deputy general Tan Wu.

Liu Hong nodded. He didn't want Sean to die now.

Otherwise, he would not be able to control Uesugi Tora's 500 personal guards.
