Seeing this, Hou Honglin couldn't help trembling, and clenched his teeth, but he didn't dare to disobey, he just raised his trembling hand, and pressed a fingerprint on the secret letter.
As soon as the fingerprint fell, the dark guard raised his hand, and when he raised his hand and dropped it, Hou Honglin fell limply on the ground without moving.
Yun Chang raised her eyebrows, looked at Luo and said softly.
Luo Qingyan's face did not fluctuate at all, he just said casually: "Qinxi City has a special location, it has been adjacent to the Wu Clan for so many years, no one knows whether this Hou Honglin has secretly colluded with the Wu Clan, just to be on the safe side, It's better to knock him out first, lest any news that shouldn't be spread out from him."
Yun Chang raised her eyebrows, but this is indeed the truth...
Thinking in her heart, Yunshang took out a small white jade bottle from her sleeve, and put it on the tip of Hou Honglin's nose: "Since you want to make him faint, it is naturally the easiest way to use **. Will wake up. If there is really something wrong with him, when he wakes up three days later, the matter will have been settled."
A group of people got what they wanted, and left quickly, changed into the clothes of the servants of the city guard's mansion, and went straight to the city guard's camp.
The city guard camp was still very calm, only the sound of soldiers patrolling back and forth was heard from time to time.
When Luo Qingyan and his group arrived outside the city guard camp, a soldier stepped forward and asked, "Who is it? What are you doing here at the city guard camp in the middle of the night?"
Luo Qingyan quickly showed the token brought by Hou Honglin: "The Wu Clan rebelled, Master Hou has an order, immediately dispatch the city guards to attack."
"The Wu Clan is rebelling?" The soldier was stunned for a moment, stepped forward to check the token in Luo Qingyan's hand, and then asked again: "Why didn't Lord Hou and Lord Li come?"
The hidden guards had already found out that Mr. Li the soldier was talking about was Hou Honglin's deputy, who was in charge of the city defenders.
"Master Li Wei has already followed Master Hou to the Wu Clan to check the situation, and only sent me to dispatch the army to go... In addition to Lord Hou's token, I also have Lord Hou's private seal and Secret letter, don’t hurry to invite the leader out, and quickly gather people.”
"If it's too late, the Witch Clan will fight back, and it will be difficult to explain it at that time."
Hearing that the Wu clan had rebelled, the soldier's face was also full of worry, and he didn't ask any more questions, he just let a few people in quickly.
Then several leaders of the city defenders on duty ran over, checked the secret letter and seals carefully, and then hurriedly dispatched troops.
The process of mobilizing troops was also very smooth. Within an hour, the city guard army had been mobilized neatly and ready to go.
The city defenders surrounded the Wu clan from the miasma forest, and then saw Hou Honglin coming on horseback.
The leader of the city defenders who had been suspicious of Luo Qingyan before seeing Hou Honglin secretly heaved a sigh of relief: "Lord Hou."
Mr. Nahou is naturally a secret guard in disguise, and only nodded slightly: "The witch clan is rebelling, I'll go and check the situation first, you follow orders."
Luo Qingyan and Yunshang left two hidden guards, then left first, found a high ground, overlooking the situation below.
"What's the situation among the witch clan?"
Luo shook his head lightly: "It's still unknown, but in the past few days, there are no people from the Wu clan who have come out to inquire about the news."
When Yunshang heard the words, she turned her head to look at Luo and said softly, "Did our dandelions play a role?"
Luo smiled lightly: "It's possible, but it's also possible. This is a deliberate trick used by the Wu Clan to make us think that all the Wu Clan members have been poisoned."
"Left and right, you must not be careless in your actions."
Yun Chang naturally understood, and only raised her hand to untie a hairband from her head, held it in her hand and looked at the direction in which the hairband was flying: "When we came out, the wind direction was just right, but now the wind direction has changed a bit."
Luo Qingyan naturally knew what Yunshang was worried about, so he just smiled softly: "It's okay, it's not the time to put Kongming lanterns on today, since we have made up our minds to attack, we don't need to hide our scruples, the wind direction has changed, the big deal is to change Just put Kongming lanterns somewhere.”
"Too."
Yun Chang nodded, and was about to ask when the Kongming Lantern would be released, when she saw a light rising up in the distance.
Yun Chang's eyes were immediately attracted by the Kongming lantern: "Come?"
"Yeah." Luo smiled lightly: "Here we come."
With Luo Qingyan's voice, soon, countless Kongming lanterns could be seen going up one after another in that place.
"We have almost sold out all the Kongming Lanterns in Qinxi City this time. We just hope there will be no next time. If this fails, we won't even be able to find a place to buy Kongming Lanterns."
Yun Chang said, but kept staring at the Kongming lanterns.
Watching them rising slowly, slowly drifting towards the top of the Wu Clan, when they floated above the Wu Clan, they scrambled to become fireballs and fell down one after another.
After a while, there was a faint flash of fire on the Wu Clan's side. It should be that those fireballs ignited the dead leaves on the ground and caught fire.
"The witches are all tree houses. Tree houses are flammable. Burn it. It will be fine if you burn it all."
The flames over there are getting brighter and brighter, almost illuminating half of the sky.
Soon, another kongming lantern floated past, this time the kongming lanterns were much bigger, and there were people on them.
Yun Chang looked at the hairband fluttering in her hand: "Let's go."
Luo Qingyan responded, and followed Yunshang to the place where the Kongming lanterns were placed. The two did not talk, but they boarded different Kongming lanterns in an extremely tacit understanding.
The Kongming Lantern rose slowly, Yun Chang stood up, and smiled softly at Luo: "See you in a while, the Wu Clan."
"See you, witch clan."
Yun Shang had a sly look on her face: "Your Majesty, do we want to compare?"
"Compared to what?"
The Kongming Lantern has already left the ground, but the distance between the two Kongming Lanterns is not too far, Yun Chang smiled: "We have all seen the map drawn by the old woman, why don't we compare who landed the closest The entrance to the spiritual cave?"
"Speaking of which, I don't have an advantage in this matter. After all, His Majesty has been in the Wu Clan for such a long time, so he should be very familiar with the Wu Clan."
Luo smiled softly: "Okay, let's compare, compare what?"
Yun Chang thought for a while: "Whoever wins can make a request to the other party? I haven't thought about it yet, as long as it's not too much?"
Luo Qingyan smiled at the corners of his eyes and brows: "But, I just hope that the empress will keep her word and don't go back on her word."
"Repent?" Yun Shang sneered softly: "I've grown up so much, I still don't know how to write the word repent."
As Yunshang said, she glanced into the distance, raised her hand and pulled the knot on the Kongming Lantern, and the two Kongming Lanterns gradually drifted away...
