Chapter 1107
Chapter 1107
"Prefect He, my master does not wish for the situation in Chengdu to be stable."
"At least, that was the case before the imperial court fully took over Chengdu."
"what?"
Upon hearing this, everyone—from He Zhishan, whose hope had been rekindled, to Cao Ming, who lay in a pool of blood, and even the deputy generals of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry who were being held captive by the Embroidered Uniform Guard—turned their gaze toward the source of the voice.
'Clap. '
When Wang Qinian, the man behind this whole affair, appeared before everyone, they were surprised and puzzled by his somewhat unfamiliar face.
Especially He Zhishan!
He turned his head and looked at Sun Xiaoyu beside him.
He hurriedly asked, "Holy, Holy Monk, who is he?"
"Who is this 'elder in his family' that he's talking about?"
"Furthermore, what do you mean by saying that the imperial court did not want stability in Shu before it had fully taken over the region?"
What exactly does he mean?
He Zhishan's face was filled with panic as he asked four soul-searching questions!
When Xu Shan led his troops into Sichuan, Wang Qinian had already begun making arrangements in the capital.
It was only after arriving in the ghost town that he made his first public appearance.
Therefore, he never met He Zhishan from beginning to end.
Humans are afraid of the unknown.
That's why Wang Qinian's words made He Zhishan extremely nervous.
"Ah……"
Hearing this, Sun Xiaoyu didn't say anything. Instead, Chen Dingtian picked his nose and sneered, "With this kind of intelligence, he's supposed to be the head of the Shudu gentry?"
"Damn it, that bastard Xu Shan sold me out, and I'm even helping him count the money!"
"Wang Qinian, nothing's wrong, I'm going to practice the [Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Finger]."
"This way, Celestial Master. Several young ladies are already waiting for your careful instruction."
"Wu Jieyu."
"arrive."
"Hurry and accompany the Celestial Master there. Don't delay!"
"Yes."
Their oblivious conversation had already made He Zhishan, who was holding onto something, feel his head buzzing.
She was sold out by that bastard Xu Shan, and she's still helping him count the money?
Were all these people Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards)?
and many more!
Wang Qinian?
Wang Panguan, the "Smiling Tiger," one of Xu Shan's right-hand men and one of the two generals, is he?
As Xu Shan's reputation as the "King of Hell" spread, the two top inspectors under his command also became well-known to various forces.
Li Yuanfang draws his sword, Wang Qinian disappears...
These are all people you shouldn't mess with!
“Holy, Holy Monk, this, this… he, he…”
"Let's get to know each other again. Standing before you is my master, Lord Xu, the specially appointed Grand Elder of the Inspectorate—Sun Xiaoyu, the direct disciple of the Esoteric School!"
“Lord Sun, Lord Xu has also had his subordinates arrange some entertainment for you.”
Please move aside!
Upon hearing this, Sun Xiaoyu looked at Wang Qinian and asked, "When will Lord Xu arrive?"
"When the wicked concubine Shi Qing, enraged and humiliated, slaughters the entire aristocratic class of Chengdu, Lord Xu will surely storm Chengdu in the name of the imperial court."
"Furthermore, my master is a man of his word. He will never go back on his promises to you."
'Pah-ta-ta.'
'Plop.'
Upon hearing Wang Qinian's words, He Zhishan staggered back several steps. Then, his legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground.
Slaughtering the entire aristocratic class of Chengdu?
Or was it borrowed from the demon concubine Shi Qing?
Afterwards, they would launch a legitimate attack on Chengdu.
In this way, all the unsettling factors that could influence the course of events in various parts of Shu Commandery were eliminated in one fell swoop.
At that time, Xu Shan, who would be both a prostitute and a virtuous woman, would take over the entire Shu County.
Only at this moment did He Zhishan, whose scalp was tingling with fear, realize just how ruthless Xu Shan's move truly was.
It turns out that everything that happened tonight was orchestrated by that young man.
What I want is for Chengdu to be thrown into chaos.
What we want is for the gentry to be completely wiped out!
What he wanted was a clean and orderly Shu prefecture that he could control at will.
"Haha."
Just then, Cao Ming, seeing He Zhishan stagger and fall to the ground, let out a harsh and bitter laugh.
At this moment, even he had figured out the whole situation.
"Everything that happened today..."
"Behind it all, it was all Xu Shan's scheme."
"Deliberately instigating conflict between the King of Shu and his concubine, thereby causing internal strife."
"And he only needs to send someone to watch coldly. At the crucial moment, he can reap the benefits."
"By using the Princess Consort of Shu, we can completely eradicate the scourge of Shu County [the gentry collective], and then use this as an excuse to openly invade the capital of Shu on behalf of the court."
"Not only did they gain a good reputation, they also killed all those who deserved to die."
"So cruel, so cruel!"
When Cao Ming uttered these words as if he had lost his mind, Wang Qinian, whose smile still carried a friendly air, immediately walked up to him.
"General Cao, now that you have figured out my master's intentions..."
"Then you should also understand the importance of letting the demoness Shi Qing go berserk and slaughter the Shu County gentry without regard for the consequences, right?"
"I've heard that General Cao is deeply favored by the Princess Consort of Shu!"
"He even cast a love potion on himself for her sake, which moved Shi Qing to tears."
Upon hearing this, Cao Ming glared coldly at Wang Qinian and said, "So what? This general is going to die, is that it?"
"Death is inevitable!"
"Only a tragic death can ignite a resentful woman's hatred!"
"What do you think, Prefect He?"
After saying this, Wang Qinian asked He Zhishan, who was standing next to him.
Then, waving his hand, he said, "Execute General Cao by slow slicing!"
"Make him suffer a terrible fate!"
Wang Qinian was still smiling as he said this.
But his smile appeared so sinister to He Zhishan and Cao Ming!
"Yes!"
"torture."
'bass! ’
'Sizzle.'
"what……"
During the torture, He Zhishan, who was standing next to Cao Ming, screamed even more pitifully than Cao Ming.
He crawled to the side, curled up in a corner, hugging his legs and trembling.
"You son of a bitch, kill me."
With a touch of tragic heroism, Cao Ming, like a real man, uttered these words.
Feeling that the time was about right, Wang Qinian put away his smile and buttoned up his collar.
He looked at Cao Ming with a rather upright expression and said, "Send General Cao on his way!"
"If there is an afterlife, please be sure to recognize the flag with the character '许' on it."
"Perhaps, we can still be comrades-in-arms."
'Pfft. '
As soon as Wang Qinian finished speaking, his men delivered a fatal blow to Cao Ming.
"what!"
"Your Majesty, please convey this message to Imperial Envoy Xu..."
"Your humble servant, He Zhishan, is willing to follow his lead without any disloyalty."
"I only wish to survive in this world."
"Please, please, Lord Wang."
'Snap, snap.'
As he said this, He Zhishan used his last bit of strength to kowtow several times to Wang Qinian.
Looking down at him, Wang Qinian glanced at him and said, "My master once said..."
"He only trusted the knife in his hand and the brothers beside him."
"And you, clearly, do not belong to these categories."
"Compared to Prefect He, my master prefers his own brothers to take charge of Shu County."
"Take Lord He away."
"After the execution, bury him on the spot."
"Only when Shi Qing can't find anyone else will he go even crazier and kill even more thoroughly."
"Yes!"
