My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 98 King Qi is dead, but I didn’t kill him?!

"so what?"

Bai Ziqing touched his hair and looked at Zeng Anmin.

"You know I'm a scholar, so you have to do this kind of thing."

Zeng Anmin looked at Bai Ziqing as a matter of course.

"no!"

Bai Ziqing shook his head firmly: "If the truth is revealed, both you and I will die."

"No, even if King Qi died now, no one would care. He is so powerful in the capital that he has enemies everywhere. No one would suspect us."

Zeng Anmin looked serious at this time.

When it comes to serious matters, he never jokes about his own life.

"That's not OK."

Bai Ziqing's eyes were extremely firm. He took a deep breath and advised:

"If King Qi falls, the officials connected with him will fall sooner or later. He has no chance to turn things around in his lifetime, so why bother? He might even be exposed!"

Because he might have the Xihuangtu on him, even if he doesn't carry it with him, we can definitely find clues through him.

If he is allowed to travel far away, the secret of the Xihuangtu will most likely be exposed.

Then his identity in the Tiandao Alliance would also be exposed.

By then, the secret of Kanlongtu will most likely be exposed.

Do I bet on me?!

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath and said with a serious look:
"In fact, I have another method that can make your hair straight and smooth, flowing like a fairy..."

The room became quiet.

Bai Ziqing's gaze froze for a moment.

He pursed his lips with great difficulty and shook his head, saying, "No, this will cause too much trouble..."

Zeng Anmin interrupted and took a deep breath:
"I heard you had a troublesome case?"

"As long as you help me with this job, you can rest assured that I can definitely help you solve this case. You also know that I, your brother, can do nothing but solve the case!"

Zeng Anmin looked directly at Bai Ziqing and said:

"Also, although the position of the Imperial City Commander-in-Chief has been vacated now that King Qi has fallen, if you don't have any convincing achievements, the risk of you taking the position is not great, but it is still there!"

These words went straight to Bai Ziqing's heart.

Now, all the ten inspectors of the Imperial City Bureau have opportunities.

His face lost its previous firmness and began to look embarrassed.

"What are you still hesitating about? Think about it carefully. When you were chasing the enemy, your flowing straight hair slowly fell down, and you whispered..."

When Zeng Anmin said this, he thought about it for a while, and then his eyes lit up.

He demonstrated by himself, holding the brush on the table in his hand as if it were a three-foot-long sword, and recited aloud:

"Drawing a sword and laughing, I go out to travel the world! My ambition can swallow the universe, and my chivalrous spirit can withstand the wind and frost!"

He recited this poem with great charm, dancing with his sword lightly and looking disdainfully:

"Imperial City Northern Commander Bai Ziqing is here, and I beg you to die!"

After saying this, he raised his head and looked towards Bai Ziqing:
"Isn't it much better than your current dry call of 'Imperial City Sistis'?"

At this time, Bai Ziqing's face turned red.

Eyes widened, lips trembled, and the voice murmured:

"Drawing a sword and laughing, I travel the world! My ambition can swallow the universe, and my chivalrous spirit can withstand the wind and frost..."

"Ambition swallows the universe, and chivalry endures the wind and frost..."

"Huchihuchi..."

His voice became extremely rough.

He suddenly raised his eyes and looked towards Zeng Anmin.

Without saying much, he took a deep breath and bowed to himself.

This ritual is extremely profound.

"Uh...you are..."

Zeng Anmin's brain froze for a moment.

Could it be that I was fooled by myself?
Bai Ziqing's eyes were burning. He looked up at Zeng Anmin as if he were looking at a rare treasure, and his voice was even trembling:

"My parents gave me life, and my assistants are the ones who know me."

“This poem really suits me perfectly!”

"I, Bai Ziqing, am so lucky to have a close friend like Quan Fu in my life. I will die with no regrets!"

Uh.

Zeng Anmin really didn't expect that his actions would move Bai Ziqing so much...

"Brother Bai, please don't say such things. If you hadn't trusted me in Jiangnan and brought me before His Majesty to give me a chance to defend myself, I'm afraid Quan Fu would have been a skeleton in the grave!"

"Anmin will never forget this feeling for the rest of his life!"

It's time to show some emotion.

You can't let the other party perform a one-man show.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Bai Ziqing's eyes even turned slightly red.

He reached out and pressed Zeng Anmin's shoulder hard:

"Quan Fu!"

"Brother Bai!"

…………

That night.

Two dark shadows headed towards the west.

One of the figures was extremely elegant, like an immortal banished from heaven.

The other one... was held in the hand of the exiled immortal and looked a little embarrassed.

Zeng Anmin felt the buildings around him receding very quickly, and a flash of memory crossed his eyes.

When I first traveled to Liangjiang County.

It was because Bai Ziqing carried me like this that I was able to escape death.

Now, he is carrying himself again.

Time seems like a cycle.

The only difference is that Bai Ziqing back then had long silver hair.

Now it has turned into wavy yellow hair.

Times have passed and things have changed. It’s not something that can be told to outsiders.

……

"No one will find out here."

Bai Ziqing carried Zeng Anmin to a corner of the city wall and said in a low voice:
"This is the weakest spot in the Imperial City's night patrols. It will be very safe to escape from here."

"Well, I believe in Brother Bai."

Zeng Anmin looked up at the city wall that was more than ten feet high and felt a little skeptical for a moment.

It’s so high, can it really fall out?

The next moment, he felt dizzy.

"Dengdengdeng!!"

The sound of three toes tapping on the city wall.

Zeng Anmin opened his eyes again and had reached the highest point.

As high as the city wall.

Zeng Anmin took the time to look at Bai Ziqing.

At this time, Bai Ziqing's face was not red, and he was not out of breath. He could even be heard murmuring calmly:

"Drawing a sword and laughing, I go out to travel around! My ambition is swallowed... swallowed... um..."

Bro, did you forget the lyrics?

As soon as this thought came to Zeng Anmin's mind, he felt a sudden fall.

The feeling of weightlessness made him close his eyes subconsciously.

Slow down, I'm not only carsick, but I'm also afraid of heights...

"Clap."

The sound of feet hitting the ground.

In just a moment, the two of them had arrived outside the city wall.

Land steadily!

Zeng Anmin stomped on the ground in an unreal way, trying hard to suppress the discomfort coming from his body:

"Brother Bai really has good tactics."

"hehe."

Bai Ziqing raised his lips slightly, took a deep breath, and then looked westward:

"Let's go now, there's no time to lose."

"Okay." Zeng Anmin obediently gave up his belt.

Although the posture is a bit awkward.

But if you think of Bai Ziqing as your mount...

See, it’s balanced immediately!
Bai Ziqing naturally couldn't hear Zeng Anmin's thoughts.

He stretched out his hand, grabbed Zeng Anmin, and quickly disappeared into the night of the capital.

…………

The night is dreary.

A carriage moved slowly forward.

Facing the night, facing the sorrow.

There was no cover on the carriage, just a cage.

A huge man was half-sitting in the cage.

His bloated body almost filled the cage even when he was half-sitting.

King Qi stared at the stars in the sky with a lifeless face.

At this time, the beard around his cheeks was no longer as upright as before.

Leaning like a straw.

"When the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked..."

It seemed as if King Qi understood for the first time what those weak Confucian scholars said.

He inexplicably felt like laughing.

It was as if he was inexplicably made into this state by Emperor Jianhong.

He didn't even know why Emperor Jianhong would use a lie that everyone knew to depose him.

The sea of ​​consciousness was shattered by Si Zhongxiao, and the Wudan was shattered.

At this point, he was no different from a useless person.

"Dad, I'm cold..."

Wang Qianzhi was also in this team. He was held down by several soldiers and looked tremblingly at his father in the cage, no... dad.

At this moment, he could no longer call the man in front of him his father.

King Qi listened to Wang Qianzhi's voice and moved his body slightly, but his huge body made it difficult for him to even turn his head in such a cramped space.

"master……"

She was the wife of the princess the day before yesterday, but now she has become a prisoner.

The sound seemed particularly desolate under the cover of night.

Around him were twenty officers and men.

Leading the group was a colonel.

The captain looked cold and said, "No whispering!"

King Qi did not raise his head. He did not even glance at the captain. He just stared numbly at the stars in the night sky.

Normally, he would not even bother to take a second look at this kind of insignificant person.

Now, his life is in his hands.

The world is impermanent.

In the night sky, the only sounds were those of carriages and horses.

Finally, after walking for a while.

The captain said indifferently, "Stay where you are! Take turns to keep watch!"

"Yes!"

Twenty officers and soldiers holding weapons saluted respectfully in unison.

Then they stopped the carriage and set up tents on the spot.

It is still nearly ten thousand miles to the west.

Everyone must obey orders along the way.

The captain sighed and looked towards King Qi.

There are still two months and twenty-nine days left until the stipulated time.

Except tonight, have a good night's rest.

The rest of the time will be used to travel.

……

Gradually, it became late at night.

Everyone in the tent fell into a sound sleep.

Even the few soldiers on night watch showed signs of dozing off.

In the dense forest.

Bai Ziqing hurried over carrying Zeng Anmin.

"That's it. The one in the prisoner cart is King Qi."

Bai Ziqing and Zeng Anmin both had their heads wrapped in black cloth and their faces covered with black scarves, and they were wearing night clothes.

Zeng Anmin looked over indifferently.

Being so close to Bai Ziqing, he didn't dare to use his martial arts energy and could only see with his naked eyes.

In the moonlight, he could see King Qi lying in the carriage, his chest rising and falling evenly.

Obviously, King Qi seems to have fallen asleep now.

"I'll help you keep watch and prepare for action."

Zeng Anmin looked at King Qi's prison cart, and a murderous look flashed across his face.

All enemies that can threaten your life.

Must die.

"Ah."

Bai Ziqing didn't waste any words and gently reached his fingers into his arms.

A dagger flashing with cold light was held between his white fingers.

He abandoned the long sword in order to hide himself as much as possible.

With his skills, it was difficult for the night watch soldier to detect him.

After killing King Qi, just leave quickly.

However, just as he was about to take off.

An extremely sharp voice sounded.

"Chirp!!!"

In the darkness, a flash of silver light appeared.

"Uh……"

A hidden weapon had been inserted into the throat of a soldier.

He didn't even make any sound when he died.

"Choo Choo Choo!!!"

There were dozens of whistling sounds of hidden weapons.

More than twenty officials were lying on the ground in the blink of an eye.

The smell of blood wafted through the air and entered Zeng Anmin's nostrils in the dark.

“Who is it?!” The leading captain was sleeping soundly to begin with. When he heard the noise outside the tent, he suddenly opened his eyes and wanted to pick up the weapon beside him and rush out of the tent to take a closer look.

But in a flash, a silver light flashed and broke through the tent.

"scoff~"

There was a flying knife at the captain's throat, and a few streaks of blood...

…………

In the dense forest.

"This……"

Zeng Anmin frowned.

Not to mention him, even Bai Ziqing was a little confused by this sudden situation.

The two of them looked at each other in the darkness, and remained silent, waiting quietly for what would happen next.

Inside the cage, King Qi was awakened by the noise. He raised his head abruptly and looked into the night through the wooden stakes of the cage in front of him.

I saw a blurry figure slowly walking towards the prison van.

The figure stepped on the corpses of officers and soldiers under his feet without noticing it at all.

Just walk slowly towards the cage.

"Who are you? Are you here to rescue me?"

King Qi spoke for the first time and looked at the figure walking towards him.

My heart was pounding.

There is salvation... er...!
King Qi's eyes suddenly widened.

He looked at the figure in front of him, his eyes full of confusion.

He wanted to make a sound, but he couldn't muster any strength.

He wanted to pull out the hidden weapon from his throat...

But even if your hands are covered in blood, you are doomed to fail and death will come.

"Oh!"

King Qi lay limp in the prison cart, blood dripping from his throat and fingers.

A member of the royal family, the King of Qi who has dominated the capital for more than ten years.

Just like that, in the silent death row van.

He didn't even know who killed him, and he didn't even see his face clearly.

I could only vaguely see that the man was wearing a bamboo hat and walking lightly.

"what!!"

It was not until this time that King Qi's family woke up from their dream.

Seeing the bodies of the officers and soldiers lying twisted on the ground, they finally let out a scream of terror.

"Chi!" A silver light appeared.

"Ah..." Wang Qianzhi, like his father, covered his throat, his eyes wide open in the darkness... but then he slowly lost his life.

Even when King Qi's wife was sleeping, a hidden weapon flying knife flew to her throat.

……

Even though the mysterious man has gone far away.

Zeng Anmin and Bai Ziqing waited in the darkness for a long time.

Neither of them made the slightest sound.

Time passed slowly.

Zeng Anmin pursed his lips and he and Bai Ziqing just stared at each other in the jungle.

It was a good plan.

Come and kill King Qi.

In the end, someone got there first? ?

"Do you understand this hidden weapon technique?"

Zeng Anmin looked at Bai Ziqing and asked in a serious tone.

The man covered himself very tightly.

So we can only start from here.

Bai Ziqing frowned. His own skills with hidden weapons were already top-notch in the world.

When the man just made his move, he didn't even see how these hidden weapons appeared.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Ziqing said solemnly:
"This guy's hidden weapon skills are better than mine. If we just talk about hidden weapons, I'm afraid I'm no match for him."

"Ok?"

Zeng Anmin frowned tightly.

"Let's go quickly. If we don't get back to the capital before dawn, you and I will be in big trouble!"

Bai Ziqing looked at Zeng Anmin solemnly.

"it is good!"

But before leaving, Zeng Anmin still asked Bai Ziqing to check whether the person dead in the cage was King Qi.

After getting a definite answer, the two headed towards the capital at a very fast speed.
