Chapter 8
After everyone left, Su Heng looked at Mu Shan.
"Uncle, do you know that there are members of the royal family in the Zhennan Army?"
Su Heng stared at Mu Shan and spoke directly.
When Mu Shan heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Isn’t the Prince of Zhennan’s Palace also under the jurisdiction of the royal family?
The prince asked this, could it be that...
"know."
Mu Shan pondered for two seconds and finally chose to answer.
"I don't want these people to be alive before the army sets out tomorrow."
"General Mu, do you understand?"
Su Heng's eyes were full of indifference, without a trace of emotion.
If you can be used by him, then use it. If you can't be used by him, then there is no need to occupy this position.
"I understand."
After thinking it over again and again, Mu Shan finally chose to agree.
If he didn't agree, I'm afraid the two of them would never let him leave here.
"The moonlight should be nice tonight, but I wonder if it will be too dry."
Su Heng spoke for no reason and said this.
Mu Shan was able to sit in this position, so he was naturally not a simple-minded person. He immediately understood what his own prince meant.
The prince is going to set fire to the mountain!
"Sir, this plan is good, but it will ultimately harm the harmony of nature."
"If this were to be reported back to the imperial court, I'm afraid it would lead to impeachment by the court officials."
"If this gets out, it won't be good for your reputation, Prince."
Mu Shan spoke, his face full of worry.
If you really do something so against the harmony of nature, you will be criticized by others!
When Su Heng heard this, he was speechless.
If it were the person from the Three Kingdoms period, he would probably think that this plan was not cruel enough, right?
"Zhao Gao."
Su Heng spoke into the darkness, and then Zhao Gao came out from the darkness.
Seeing that there were other people in the tent, Mu Shan was subconsciously shocked.
Then an extremely dangerous feeling came over him, making him extremely fearful.
He is in the late stage of Grandmaster, and the only person who can make him feel intimidated is the peak Grandmaster.
The person in front of him is at the peak of the Grandmaster level, and is at the same level as the prince?
Mu Shan couldn't help but look at Su Heng and the two grand masters behind Su Heng.
In the Southern Territory, he is also a high-ranking official and the prince's confidant. He knows something about the great masters in the Southern Territory.
But he had no idea about the three people in front of him, as if they appeared out of nowhere.
"Assist Mu Shan and get this done."
Su Heng spoke directly and gave orders to Zhao Gao.
"Old slave understands."
Zhao Gao bowed slightly and responded.
"General Mu, this prince is not discussing this with you again, but informing you. Do you understand?"
"I understand."
Now that things have come to this, what can Mu Shan say even if he wants to?
"Step back! This prince needs to rest."
Having his tent occupied, Mu Shan didn't dare to say anything more and could only retreat.
On a dark and windy night, people are killing people and setting fires.
The territory of the Baili people.
"General, this place should be almost done, right?"
A soldier from the Zhennan Army spoke up and couldn't help but ask about his general.
"Split up."
The general took a look and felt that it was almost ready, so he ordered his men to take action.
Then the group of people scattered, took out tinder and lit the fire.
Duan Bin couldn't help but sneer as he watched his men set the fire and the fire continued to spread.
He not only sent people to set fire here, but also set fire to the land in the neighboring Baili territory.
If the people of Daqian knew that the Prince of Zhennan was so cruel and set fire to the mountain, what would they think?
If public opinion were any stronger, he might not even be able to inherit the title of Prince of Zhennan, right?
Duan Bin's face was full of sneers.
The Prince of Zhennan's Mansion has its own troops and is disrespectful to the royal family. It deserves to be put to death.
The fire continued to spread, and in just a short moment, everything in sight was dyed a fiery red.
But why haven’t those people come back yet?
He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
As soon as he turned around, a sharp blade cut his throat, leaving him no chance to react.
Duan Bin opened his eyes wide and reached out to cover his wound.
In a daze, I seemed to see a figure turning and leaving.
After dealing with these, Luowang's killers disappeared on the spot.
As for the fact that the other party had sent people to other places to set fire, how could Luowang not have noticed such a thing?
Zhennan Army Camp.
Seeing that the sky in the direction of the Baili tribe was already glowing red, Mu Shan couldn't help but glance at the person next to him.
He has a warm smile on his face, but he is really cruel in private.
Send those people out, let them set fire, and then kill people to silence them.
one stone two bird.
The fire was set and the problem was solved.
"General, we are all neighbors. The Baili tribe has suffered a natural disaster, and we should lend a helping hand."
Zhao Gao opened his mouth, said this, and then turned and left.
Mu Shan stared at Zhao Gao's back, then glanced at the prince's tent, wondering what he was thinking.
The next day.
After getting up, Su Heng couldn't help but stretch.
This bed is so hard that my waist hurts from sleeping on it.
"System, sign in."
The first thing you do when you wake up is sign in.
"Ding, check-in successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining a heart-protecting mirror."
Name: Heart Guard
Effect: Can withstand a critical strike from a peak Grandmaster."
It's not bad. After all, it's easy to dodge a spear but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark. Having such a heart-protection mirror can provide some guarantee for your own safety.
"Where are they?"
Seeing Wen Xia standing aside, Su Heng couldn't help but ask.
"I heard that the Baili tribe suffered a natural disaster, and General Mu led people to put out the fire."
Wen Xia did not realize that this was not a natural disaster but a man-made one, so he reported what he knew to his own prince.
Hearing this, Su Heng couldn't help but be speechless.
Who was so smart to come up with this?
We've already issued a proclamation, and now you're doing this?
Are you trying to cover your ears and steal the bell?
Wouldn't it be enough to just take advantage of the fire and capture the Baili clan?
"Pack your things and return to the palace."
Su Heng thought of something and couldn't help but speak, giving Wen Xia an order.
"Now?"
"But the two priests and Mr. Zhao have already followed General Mu to the Baili tribe. Would it be dangerous to go back now?"
Wen Xia spoke up and expressed his concerns.
"Silly girl, how can you fish if there's no danger?"
"Go down and do it!"
Although Wenxia was puzzled, since the prince had already given the order, she had no choice but to do it.
After Wen Xia left, Su Heng's face turned cold.
There might be members of Li Qian's royal family among the Zhennan Army.
Moreover, at this time, there should be more than just the Li Qian royal family who want to kill him, right?
If that’s the case, then why should he be afraid of using himself as bait?
