Chapter 273 Cangtong
Jiang Chen looked at the assassin leader and slowly gathered the internal energy around him.
"I didn't expect that the Duke, who is the Lord of the Northern Territory, actually has the cultivation of Ming Jin!"
The assassin leader looked at Jiang Chen, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.
"Haha, if I didn't have this level of martial arts skills."
"I will never fight you personally, but I didn't expect you to be so vulnerable!"
Jiang Chen said, looking at the assassin leader with disdain.
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, the killer leader raised his head unwillingly.
"Jiang Chen, don't be too proud!"
"As the Lord of the North, you detained an official appointed by the imperial court without authorization. You are committing treason!"
Driven by his extreme unwillingness, the killer leader shouted loudly at Jiang Chen.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sneer.
"Haha, treason?!"
"You guys really know how to put a hoodwink on me, but..."
"Is this the reason why you have tried to assassinate me again and again!?"
Following Jiang Chen's question, the assassin leader was suddenly speechless.
At the same time, Han Zhong, the on-duty commander of the city guard station, also rushed here with his men.
"Quick, capture all the assassins and don't let any of them go!"
Looking at the killers lying on the ground after being knocked down by Jiang Chen, Han Zhong gave orders loudly.
"Yes, General."
At Han Zhong's command, a group of city guards swarmed forward.
Before the killers had time to take the poison hidden in their mouths, they were controlled .
After confirming that no one had escaped, Han Zhong came to Jiang Chen.
"I am late in coming to your rescue, my lord, please forgive me."
Jiang Chen did not blame Han Zhong for his apology, but just smiled faintly.
Then, he walked forward and helped Han Zhong up.
"It doesn't matter. Even if you don't come, these people are just a bunch of clowns."
As he spoke, Jiang Chen winked at the silver-armored guard behind him.
Seeing this, the silver-armored guard at the side hurried forward and controlled the killer leader who had lost his ability to resist.
The killer leader who was controlled by the Silver Armor Guards struggled and shouted loudly at Jiang Chen.
"Jiang Chen, you traitor, you will not have a good end!"
Facing the killer's words, Jiang Chen said nothing.
He just turned around in silence and left the pavilion with a few women and walked towards his own mansion.
When Jiang Chen returned to his mansion, he ordered all the servants to leave.
I came to the yard alone and looked up at the night sky which was gradually getting darker.
Looking at the dark night sky, Jiang Chen muttered to himself.
"It won't end well, then I..."
“I’m really looking forward to that day…”
…
Inside the "Ant Hole" prison, the killer leader, who had been tortured beyond recognition, was tied to a stool.
Looking at the scars on the killer leader's body, Zhang Fei turned and asked his men beside him.
"So, still no idea?"
In response to Zhang Fei's question, the subordinates quickly replied to Zhang Fei.
"My Lord, this man is very stubborn. We have used all eighteen tortures."
"This person has been holding out until now, and still refuses to speak."
Hearing this, Zhang Fei frowned and was about to say something.
Before he could speak, a figure walked in.
"How is it going? Has he confessed?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Zhang Fei quickly turned around and saluted.
"My lord, I am incompetent and failed to pry open his mouth."
"No problem, let me ask him myself!"
As he spoke, Jiang Chen walked up to the killer and sat down.
Hearing someone walking up to him, the weak killer opened his eyes slightly.
Looking at the killer who opened his eyes, Jiang Chen asked.
"Tell me everything you know, and I will give you a quick death."
After hearing Jiang Chen's words, the killer snorted disdainfully.
"Humph, Duke, just give up!"
"No matter what you want to know, I won't tell you."
"Don't even think about getting what you want from me..."
After saying that, the killer lowered his head and ignored Jiang Chen.
Seeing the killer's expression, Jiang Chen knew it was useless to ask any further.
"Zhang Fei!"
"My lord, please speak."
Hearing Jiang Chen calling him, Zhang Fei hurried over.
"There's no point in keeping him, just kill him!"
"Yes, my lord, I will do it."
With Jiang Chen's words, the killer leader's fate was already determined.
After leaving the imperial prison, Jiang Chen got on the carriage with his hands behind his back.
After a while, the carriage stopped outside the courtyard where Princess Cangtong and others lived.
After the carriage stopped, Jiang Chen slowly walked down.
Several members of the "Ant Nest" guarding outside the courtyard saluted Jiang Chen silently.
Jiang Chen nodded slowly and walked slowly to the gate of the courtyard.
“Knock knock knock—”
After hearing the knock on the door, several Swift Wolf Guards in the yard opened the door with a vigilant look on their faces.
When they saw that the person coming was the unfamiliar Jiang Chen, several Swift Wolf Guards asked fearfully.
"Who are you and what's going on?"
Facing several people's questions, Jiang Chen answered politely.
"I am Jiang Chen, and I want to see your princess."
Upon hearing Jiang Chen's name, several Swift Wolf Guards froze in place.
When they came to their senses, a Swift Wolf Guard quickly turned around and ran into the courtyard.
Soon, Princess Cangtong came out with the Swift Wolf Guards.
Looking at Jiang Chen, Princess Cangtong's eyes immediately flashed with joy.
When Jiang Chen saw Princess Cangtong, he was stunned.
“You…you are…”
"Aren't you the woman in red that I rescued from Canglang Country!?"
Seeing that Jiang Chen recognized her, Princess Cangtong smiled and bowed according to the etiquette of the Xia Kingdom.
"That's right. I am Cangtong, and I am honored to meet the Duke of Fuguo."
"Princess Cangtong, please get up quickly."
"Originally I was very curious about why you wanted to see me."
"I think I understand now."
Jiang Chen said with a smile after helping Princess Cangtong up.
"Um, Duke Fuguo, how about we go in first?"
The Swift Wolf Guard at the side saw that Jiang Chen and his princess knew each other, but he didn't ask any more questions.
"Okay, let's go in first."
Hearing this , Jiang Chen nodded and followed Princess Cangtong into the courtyard.
After arriving at the courtyard, Princess Cangtong actually ran over and personally poured a cup of tea for Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was somewhat flattered by Princess Cangtong's attitude and accepted it.
The several Swift Wolf Guards nearby widened their eyes.
They had never expected that their own princess, who had always been extremely when facing Jiang Chen.
It was actually like this, like a shy girl facing her lover.
However, what happened next was a scene that they could not believe.
Princess Cangtong took out a handkerchief from her arms and placed it in front of Jiang Chen.
