Not bad!
The general wanted to charge Xia qingchen with the crime of colluding with the Dark Moon!
There were thousands of crimes in the military Palace, but none of them were more serious than colluding with the Dark Moon.
Once they were discovered, they would be severely punished from top to bottom.
At that time, not only would Xia qingchenās head be separated from his body, his direct superior Zhao Fei āe and the commander of the Northwest Legion would also be severely punished!
Once the plan worked, it would be killing three birds with one stone. It would be of great benefit to Yu guitianās promotion.
Now, as long as they could get Gongsun Wuji to speak and force him to perject, everything would proceed smoothly.
Unfortunately, Gongsun Wuji did not know how to appreciate favors.
āGongsun Wuji, if you continue to be so stubborn, you will die!ā The general threatened.
āI wonāt perjure myself, even if I die!ā Gongsun Wuji was exhausted but determined.
With that, the general finally lost his patience. He said coldly, āāGood! As you wish!ā
He pulled out a scroll that he had prepared earlier and read it out in front of everyone, ā pass on the decree of the military Palace. Gongsun Wuji did not do his best to suppress the bandits, and he even covered up for those who colluded with the Dark Moon. He is a major suspect. He will be stripped of his position as a thousand-man cavalry and detained in the military camp for further investigation.
What?
Gongsun Wujiās eyes widened in shock. This matter has not been concluded, so how could the military Palace convict us?ā
Whether Xia qingchen had colluded with the Dark Moon or not, it had yet to be determined.
Why did he say that he was covering for Xia qingchen?
hehe, to tell you the truth, weāve already obtained other evidence. The reason why weāre interrogating you is that we hope that the evidence will be more conclusive. The general threw over the decree from the military Palace and said expressionlessly, āāYou could have escaped, but you didnāt cherish the opportunity!ā
Gongsun Wuji picked up the scroll, read the contents, and then looked at the seal of the military Palace at the end. His face turned pale.
This was indeed the decree of the military Palace.
However, since the military Palace had already convicted him, even if he agreed to cooperate with them to forge evidence, the outcome would not change.
The general was just trying to make use of his last bit of value.
āMen, take him back to the military Palace and await his punishment!ā At the Generalās command, someone dragged Gongsun Wuji out of the small black house and into the prison carriage waiting outside the manor.
āIām innocent!ā Gongsun Wuji shouted in grief and indignation. He was wronged! Youāre all trying to frame me, despicable!ā
The general walked over with his hands behind his back and a faint smile.āLetās talk about this in the military Palace.ā
Gongsun Wuji clutched the iron bars of the cell in anger.
He had thought that the Army was his chance to shine and become a man above others, but he did not expect that the Army was also so dark.
in addition, in order to make sure that you wonāt be too lonely on this trip, Iāve arranged for your old friends to accompany you. The general clapped his hands.
A general with a token of a hundred valiant cavalry on his waist led a group of troops over. He cupped his fists to the general and said, āāThis general will be watching over the criminals on this trip. Your Excellency can rest easy.ā
Gongsun Wuji found the voice familiar. He turned to look, and it was as if he had been struck by lightning.
After a long while, he came to a realization. āYou betrayed me!ā
Bai mingqi was none other than his former confidant, Xinyuan!
At that time, only he and Xinyuan had witnessed Xia qingchen tearing up the letter.
The only person who could expose this matter was Xinyuan!
The military Palace said that they had evidence, so it could only be Xinyuan.
Xin Yuan put on a fake smile. Lord Gongsun, youāre wrong. Iām only reporting what I saw. Do I have to cover up for a criminal like you? ā
āYou should die!ā you! Gongsun Wuji was furious. Iāve wasted my efforts in nurturing you, and this is how you repay me? ā
When he was in charge of the White Lion Legion, Xin Yuan was only a Sergeant.
He had relied on Gongsun Wujiās promotion all the way to his current position.
of course, I remember Lord Gongsunās kindness to me, but private matters are private matters, and public matters are public matters. Lord Gongsun has committed crimes, so as a subordinate, I have to uphold justice. Xin Yuan said disapprovingly. frŃewebnoѵÄl.com
Gongsun Wuji only glared at him with a pair of angry eyes.
He had never expected that Xin Yuan would betray him.
All of a sudden, he recalled that when he broke off all ties with Xia qingchen, the latter had once warned him to be careful of the people around him.
Now, it had come true!
Could it be that Xia qingchen had already sensed something at that time?
No!
Xia qingchen had betrayed him even deeper. It was impossible for him to do it for his own good!
in addition, ā the general chuckled. Xinyuanās 100-man cavalry has done a good job reporting this. Iāve already submitted a request to the military Palace to promote Xinyuan to a 1000-man cavalry of the White Lion Legion.
āWhen you go to the military Palace to confront and understand, the reward will be announced.ā
Gongsun Wuji closed his eyes in pain and muttered, āāI only want to focus on martial arts, but there are too many villains in the world. What can I do? what can I do?ā
Of course, he did not give up.
He wanted to state the truth in front of everyone in the military Palace.
He had always known that the military Palace had strict rules, and the people inside were far more incorruptible than those in the camp.
At that time, there would definitely be a chance to redress the injustice!
āLetās go!ā The general ignored Gongsun Wujiās mumbling and ordered them to move forward.
The military Palace was not in the city, but in a fortress on the outskirts. They would spend a dayās journey there.
Not long after.
Xia qingchen finally received the news.
Zhao yunshi rushed to his tent with a hurried expression. She even brought along a group of thousand cricket cavalry.
āThatās what happened. Gongsun Wuji is already on the way to the military Palace.ā Zhao yunshiās tone was low. She had never thought that the matter would be so serious.
mother is already on her way to the military Palace. You have to wait patiently. Zhao yunshiās eyes flickered.
Zhao Fei āe was only the general of the Northwest Legion, and his authority was very limited.
He couldnāt even save Gongsun Wuji from the hands of a general, so how could he save someone in the military Palace?
It would be fine if Gongsun Wuji was innocent, but if he was guilty, even the Commander-in-Chief would be useless.
Xia qingchen was as steady as a rock. He calmly looked at the ten thousand cricket cavalry who had followed him here and said, āāSo, youāre here to arrest me?ā
Even Gongsun Wuji had been captured and brought to the military Palace. How could Xia qingchen, who was the main culprit, stay out of it?
Zhao yunshi lowered her head and shook it slightly.āNo! The ones who captured you are the special envoy team sent by the military Palace. They are still on their way. We are here to stop you from making any more mistakes.ā
Before Zhao Fei āe left, he warned not to let Xia qingchen go and intercept them to save them.
That would only have the opposite effect.
There was still a chance to turn things around if they made a scene in front of the military Palace, but if they saved people midway, they would be convicted.
Hence, they definitely couldnāt allow Xia qingchen to leave the military camp.
āWhat if I insist on it?ā Xia qingchen slowly stood up.
There was no wind tonight, but his clothes were fluttering.
There was no snow tonight, but his eyes were cold.
Zhao yunshi was very far away and didnāt see that the marble table in front of Xia qingchen was already covered in cracks.
The military writing and writing brush on it had long since shattered into dust.
āLord Xia, please mind your manners!ā The Qian xiaoji who had been ordered to come said in unison, āāDonāt force us to use force!ā
Xia qingchen ignored them and slowly walked down.
The Qian Xiaoqiās expression was solemn as they surged with the power of the middle star.
Zhao yunshi waved her hand and sighed. all of you can leave. Let me do it.
She put down the sword in her arms and said with her red lips, ā before yesterday, I was the one who protected you. But after today, I have to act against you. Xia qingchen, donāt make things difficult for me, okay? ā
Xia qingchen replied, ā I owe Gongsun Wuji a debt of gratitude. I have feelings for him. Anyone can choose not to save him. Iām the only one who canāt!
As he took a step forward, a Gale swept up, and dust and sand flew toward Zhao yunshiās face.
āThe rest of you, donāt do anything. Iām enough,ā she sighed deeply.
As one of the top experts in the Northwest Legion and as Xia qingchenās personal guard in the past, it should be very easy to capture him.
