Ding Shikui's headless body fell into the yard. All the mission personnel who had no time to withdraw in the inn were chopped and killed by Xichuan soldiers.

The chaos in Jingzhou City lasted for half a day. Soon, the Xichuan soldiers in the city rushed out of the Xicheng City and fled west in panic.

In a private house, a man quietly pushed the door open and entered. He closed the door and came to the yard. He saluted Yan Qiheng and said, "Sir, the Xichuan soldiers have withdrawn from Jingzhou!"

Yan Qiheng looked gloomy and ignored the man. Instead, he said in anger: "Is Fu Shangrui's attack on Sun Kewang the court's intention, or is he his own decision?"

Zhang Jiayu shook his head and said, "I haven't learned it yet? But the memorial we have been sent to you long ago, and the court should have known it!"

Yan Qiheng breathed a sigh of relief, "If this matter is the intention of the court, then from the very beginning, you and I have been used by the court and were the abandoned sons of the court. If Fu Shangrui made his own decision, then he should really kill him. No matter which one, what kind of thing, even if he attacked Sun Kewang at this time, what benefits would it be for the court?"

Whether it was the court's resolution or Fu Shangrui's proposal, the Longwu Dynasty had just turned against the Zhejiang Army and Wu Yue Fan, and the Qing army was facing the Yangtze River, and there was another enemy to the west.

Sun Kewang was dead, and the Xichuan Kingdom was in chaos. The Ming army had no strength to enter Sichuan. Maybe the Qing army would take advantage of the opportunity to occupy Sichuan.

If Sun Kewang is not dead, he will definitely be an enemy of Longwu Dynasty and will be revenge for one arrow.

Zhang Jiayu said: "Now that the Xichuan soldiers are withdrawing, I believe the imperial soldiers will arrive soon. You will know at that time!"

Shortly after the Xichuan army withdrew from Jingzhou, Fu Shangrui led a victorious army of 50,000 or 60,000 troops from Wuchang and Changsha, and then approached Jingzhou in a mighty manner.

When the Xichuan soldiers learned that Sun Kewang was ambushed and did not know his life or death, they were worried that they would be trapped in Jingzhou and abandon the city and return west. Fu Shangrui's soldiers were not cut off from blood, so they took back Jingzhou.

In Jingzhou Prefecture, Sun Kewang's palace, which had just been repaired for a while, turned into Fu Shangrui's headquarters.

At this time, on the street outside the road, the brigade of Ming soldiers patrolled back and forth to restore order in the city.

Yan Qiheng and Zhang Jiayu learned that the official army had entered the city, so they immediately came out of the house and were about to go to Fu Shangrui's headquarters. As soon as they left the house, they were stopped by a team of patrolling soldiers and asked about their identity.

At this moment, a general rode a horse by. When he saw two people from afar, he was stunned and then came over with a horse.

"What's going on?" Wang Chang said in a deep voice.

The patrol officials saw that they were a general, and hurriedly saluted: "Report to the general, I suspect that they are remnants of the Western thieves and are about to interrogate them!"

Zhang Jiayu was about to speak, but Wang Chang said first: "This is an acquaintance of this general, not a remnant of the Western thief. You can go and inspect it!"

When Baihu heard the words, hesitated for a moment, but clasped his fists and led his subordinates away.

As soon as Wang Chang and other patrol soldiers walked away, they immediately turned over and dismounted, pulled Yan Qiheng to the side, and said anxiously: "Sir, why are you here? Don't you know that Governor Fu will capture the Lord again?"

Yan Qiheng looked puzzled, "General knows me?"

Wang Chang explained: "After Wang Chang, the adults followed the elders of Duge, besieged Jingzhou and pacified Hubei. My brothers Wang Guangen and Wang Guangtai came to visit the army and met him once."

Yan Qiheng remembered, "You are General Wang of Yunyang."

When Wang Chang heard the words, he said happily, "Sir, remember the humble position." Then he changed his expression and said anxiously: "Sir, this is not a place to speak, please follow me."

Jingzhou Prefecture, inside the Governor's Headquarters.

"Du Xian, Ding Shikui, Lord Ding was killed by the Western thief!" Cao Zhijian said in a deep voice.

When Fu Shangrui heard the words, he showed a sad look on his face, but there was no turmoil in his heart, and he was even a little happy.

After all, Ding Shikui is also an insider, so it's better if he dies, so as not to take action.

"Where is Yan Qiheng and Zhang Jiayu?" Fu Shangrui said anxiously.

Cao Zhijian said: "Reported to Tuxian, no bodies of the two were found in the inn, and there were no traces of them in the city!"

Fu Shangrui frowned. If these two people were not dead, it would be a big trouble for him and He Tengjiao.

The memorial written by Yan Qiheng was robbed by Fu Shangrui halfway, which made the agreement reached by Yan Qiheng and Sun Kewang fail to be passed to the court.

Fu Shangrui concealed the memorial, and then sent someone to inform Sun Kewang that the court agreed to the agreement and ordered the garrisons in Xiangyang and Yunyang to make way for the Xichuan soldiers to leave the passage and allow the Xichuan soldiers to attack the Qing Dynasty. On the other hand, he secretly mobilized the army to ambush the people, and ambush Sun Kewang on the excuse that Sun Kewang had a tacit battle.

In order to avoid the incident being exposed, Fu Shangrui had already complained first, and wrote a letter saying that Yan Qiheng and Zhang Jiayu colluded with Sun Kewang, saying that Sun Kewang wanted to grant Yan Qiheng the Prime Minister of Xichuan, while Yan Qiheng cooperated with Sun Kewang, used the negotiations to confuse the court and took the opportunity to attack Huguang.

Although Fu Shangrui had already written a letter, he was still worried that Yan Qiheng and Zhang Jiayu complained after returning to the court, so he must catch the two of them.

Fu Shangrui paced back and forth, "Continue to search, you must catch them. They colluded with the Western thief and deserved death. If they resist, there is no need to show mercy!"

Cao Zhijian understood what Fu Shangrui meant and hoped that Yan Qiheng and Zhang Jiayu would die among the riots and did not want to leave a living, but he had already searched secretly in the city, but he did not find the two.

"Maintaining the Constitution, in theory, they knew that the court should have come out by themselves to recover Jingzhou. There is no news now, and Beizi did not find them. Could it be that they were entangled into Sichuan by the Western thieves?" Cao Zhijian said.

"If they are really trapped into Sichuan, they will fall into their crotch, either shit or shit." Fu Shangrui said, but he still said worriedly: "You search again, don't be limited to the city, the scope should be larger."

"I am humble in my position to accept the order!" Cao Zhijian saw that Fu Shangrui insisted, so he could only bow to accept the order.

Outside Jingzhou City, on the Yangtze River, a cargo ship was flowing downstream.

In the cabin, Yan Qiheng and Zhang Jiayu sat opposite each other, and there were refreshments placed at the table, but neither of them was intent to move.

Zhang Jiayu said: "Sir, let's go back to Nanjing and report to Fu Shangrui and He Tengjiao!"

Yan Qiheng shook his head, "Forget it, Fu Shangrui defeated Sun Kewang and regained Jingzhou City. Even if the emperor believes in us, he will not do anything to him!"

Zhang Jiayu said: "Why is this? This is a deception of the king!"

Yan Qiheng said in a deep voice: "Because Fu Shangrui is different from Du Ge Lao, Du Ge Lao is loyal to Your Majesty. If Your Majesty insists, Du Ge Lao will not fight against Your Majesty, but Fu Shangrui is different from He Tengjiao, and they are forced to do anything when they are too anxious."

Zhang Jiayu was shocked when he heard this, "What sir means is that they dare~~~"

Yan Qiheng waved his hand to interrupt him, and the two of them were silent for a while. After a while, Zhang Jiayu couldn't help asking: "Since that's the case, where are we going?"
