Xing Ruhai was a person who had experienced many storms. He first lured them away from the government office to protect Su Hanxuan and Luan Qingshan, who was living in the backyard of the government office. He did not show any emotion on his face.

“This matter is a long story. It has been a long journey for all of you. I will arrange for you to stay in the relay station and set up a welcoming banquet.”

“No need. Tell me now.”

However, the lieutenant was not easy to fool. He sat directly on the main seat and looked down at Xing Ruhai.

” Sigh, it’s quite frustrating to talk about it. The two people who made the killing machines were pa.s.sersby. They left without saying goodbye after helping Mo City repel the Tartan soldiers. I sent five people to protect them, but they failed to keep an eye on them. Now, we don’t know where they are.”

Xing Ruhai sighed, looking annoyed. These words were the same as the secret report he sent to Minister Wan, so he didn’t have to worry about being seen through.

“You mean they disappeared without a trace? Tell me in detail.”

The lieutenant did not believe him and forced Xing Ruhai to explain in detail.

“It’s like this. This lowly official treated these two as distinguished guests and treated them well every day. However, one day, the imperial court sent someone over, and this lowly official was busy entertaining them. After sending away the people who came to the imperial court, this lowly official found that these two people had disappeared without a trace. The five bailiffs protecting them had also been killed, so this lowly official said they had disappeared.”

Xing Ruhai was well aware of the conflict between the Wan Clan and the current Emperor, so he intentionally insinuated that the Emperor’s men had taken away the two killers.

The lieutenant’s expression was grave when he heard that the imperial court had sent someone. General Wan had the exact guess. If the person who made the great killing weapon fell into the hands of the imperial court, it would be very pa.s.sive for General Wan.

“This lowly official will first send the lieutenant to the courier station to wash up. Prepare some light wine and vegetables before we slowly chat.”

Xing Ruhai once again proposed to bring the lieutenant to the courier station. Through observing the situation, he could see that the lieutenant somewhat believed his words and had doubts about the current Emperor.

If he could make them restrain themselves, he could let the people of the Great Xia Kingdom live a good life for another two years.

“Alright then.”

The lieutenant nodded in agreement. It was uncomfortable to be covered in soil all the way. Xing Ruhai was very attentive as he led the way.

“Lieutenant, this way, please.”

Ji Shuisheng had a.s.sembled his troops but did not dare to rush in because Su Hanxuan and Luan Qingshan were in the government office. Seeing Xing Ruhai lead his men to the relay station, Ji Shuisheng thought of a good idea that could reduce the losses on his side and quietly destroy the Wan family army.

Xing Ruhai eagerly brought the lieutenant and the others to the station. The station chief had long run away, and no one was watching.

“I’ll go find someone to serve the generals.”

Xing Ruhai brought them into the relay station and said to them with a smile.

“Hurry up.”

Looking at the empty and dusty station, the lieutenant’s face darkened. Mo City was poor. There was no one to look after the station.

Xing Ruhai agreed and left. Soon, he brought three bailiffs with him and ordered them arrogantly,

“Your hands and feet are nimble.”

The lieutenant glanced at the three of them and saw that one of the bailiffs looked mighty and tall. The other two were very timid and dared not look at them.

The commandant nodded to his subordinates and sent someone to watch the three of them work. Xing Ruhai accompanied the commandant on the side and was very enthusiastic.

“Commandant, please have some tea.”

The tall, muscular man walked into the hall with a large tea tray and respectfully placed the teapot on the table.

“Have a drink first.”

The cunning lieutenant was very cautious. He let the bailiff drink it first to ensure the water was not poisonous before he was willing to drink it.

The bailiff poured a cup of tea without hesitation and drank it before the lieutenant. He even showed the empty cup to him.

“You may leave.”

Xing Ruhai waved his hand at the bailiff with a dignified expression. Then, he poured tea for the lieutenant with a smile.

“Commandant, you must be tired from the journey. Drink some tea to warm your body. 1 have ordered people to kill and roast the whole lamb.”

The lieutenant still didn’t drink and stared at Xing Ruhai. Xing Ruhai smiled as he picked up the teacup and slowly tasted the tea. Seeing that he was fine drinking the tea, the lieutenant picked up the teacup and drank it.

Outside the house, the tall bailiff held a large teapot and teacup for the soldiers to drink. These soldiers were as alert as the lieutenants. They refused the tea brought by the bailiff and went to boil water for themselves.

The tall bailiff kept smiling and was not embarra.s.sed because they did not believe him.

Cheng Yu led the Xiao Family Army in casual clothes outside the relay station. They lay in ambush, waiting for the Young Master to signal before rushing to kill the Wan Family Army.

There was a well in the courier station. The water was sweet, but there was some dust on it. When drawing water, he used a bucket to sweep the dust away before scooping up the water.

The generals drank the water directly. They lived in the wind and slept in the open all year round, so they didn’t have the habit of drinking hot water.

The tall bailiff had been by their side the whole time. There were bound to be people waiting in line for water.

The soldier who drank the water first fell to the ground as soon as he stood up. The people behind him immediately became alert and raised their knives to aim at the bailiff.

“What’s in the water?”

There’s this.”

Ji Shuisheng looked in the direction of the wind and stood upwind. When the soldiers asked him a question, he smiled and waved his hand. The wind blew away a packet of knockout powder, and the row of soldiers in front fell to the ground.

The people behind him quickly held their breaths and raised their knives to cut Ji Shuisheng.

“Shh…”

Ji Shuisheng put his index finger and thumb in his mouth and blew a long whistle. This was the secret signal he and Cheng Yu had agreed on. When Cheng Yu heard the secret sign from the young master, he immediately led his troops into the relay station.

Cheng Yu and the others with crossbows killed the Wan Family Army guarding the gate. Ji Shuisheng had gotten these crossbows from his sister and Jiang Yuyan. Su Qing’s products were unbeatable.

After the four generals guarding the gate were killed, Cheng Yu led the Xiao Family Army into the relay station. They fought with the remaining tens of Wan Family Army soldiers. Crossbows were a weapon for close combat.

In the hall, Xing Ruhai smiled at the unconscious lieutenant. There was also knockout powder in the tea, but he and Ji Shuisheng drank the antidote first and tricked the lieutenant into drinking the tea mixed with knockout powder.

The Xiao Family’s army guarded the station’s gates, surrounding it tightly. Ji Shuisheng and Cheng Yu led the army to kill the remnants of the Wan Family’s army, killing every single one of them.

Corpses were strewn all over the relay station, and blood flowed like a river. The battle was carried out very quickly to ensure that the citizens of Mo City were not alarmed.

Qiu Yongkang stood outside the relay station and watched the battle. His expression was calm, as if he was watching a fantastic show.

After killing all the Wan Family Army soldiers, Ji Shuisheng ordered the Xiao Family Army soldiers to dig a deep pit at the horse pen behind the relay station and throw the bodies of the Wan Family Army soldiers into it. He sprinkled the corpse-dissolving powder that Su Qing had given him earlier on the bodies, and soon there was no trace of them.

He brought his men to search the relay station and confirmed that no Wan Clan soldiers had escaped.

Xing Ruhai handed Ji Shuisheng the travel pa.s.s and doc.u.ments proving they were from the Wan Family Army.

Ji Shuisheng smiled as he held these things!

At the relay station’s entrance, the Wan Family Army flags were fluttering in the wind, still as awe-inspiring as ever.

Ji Shuisheng didn’t get people to take down the military flag. He didn’t know if there were still spies from the Wan family in Mo City.. He decided to put on a good show for them to see!
