Chapter 344 Nan Keling Conquers Shuzhou
Ruyu quickly closed the door and several people left in a hurry.
Returning to Ruyu's room, Nan Keling warned:
"Don't tell anyone about what happened today, or you won't survive."
Ruyu nodded repeatedly.
She didn't dare tell anyone because these three women looked so cruel. What if they came to assassinate Huang Yin? Wouldn't she be considered an accomplice?
Nan Keling knocked Ruyu unconscious with a single blow of his hand, then took Aying and Afang and left with the tray.
The three of them came to the door of Rumeng's room and knocked.
"Who is it again?" Ru Meng's impatient voice came from the room.
"Miss Rumeng, we are here to serve wine and food."
After saying that, Nan Keling pushed the door open and walked in first.
As soon as he put the tray on the table, Huang Yin looked over and his eyes immediately lit up.
"Rumeng, when did such a beautiful maid come to the Beauty House? Why haven't I seen her before?"
As he said this, he reached out to touch Nan Keling's chin.
"My little beauty, it's a pity to be a maid."
Rumeng glanced at Nan Keling and asked doubtfully:
"Why don't I know you?"
Nan Keling avoided Huang Yin's dirty hands and said:
"I am new here."
Ru Meng frowned and said:
"Really? With your looks, will mother agree to let you be just a maid?"
Seeing Nan Keling dodged, Huang Yin felt a little unhappy. He took out a silver note from his arms and slapped it on the table.
"Whether you are new here or came later, sit here and drink with me tonight."
Ru Meng snorted.
"Master Huang, you really love every girl you meet!"
Huang Yin laughed out loud:
"What's wrong? Is my little Rumeng jealous? Don't worry, you will always be the first in my heart."
Seeing Huang Yin turning his head to coax Rumeng, Nan Keling seized the opportunity and chopped at the back of Huang Yin's head with a knife.
Ah Ying also attacked from the other side at the same time and knocked Ru Meng unconscious.
But Huang Yin was a military general after all, so he had some skills. He sensed something was wrong and immediately dodged to the side.
Nan Keling missed the attack and immediately kicked forward with his leg.
"have--"
Huang Yin was about to shout that there was an assassin when he was kicked and passed out.
Nan Keling took out the golden silkworm Gu and put it on Huang Yin.
He then sat down cross-legged and began to communicate with the golden silkworm Gu using his spiritual consciousness.
After a while, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on Nan Keling's forehead.
When she opened her eyes, the golden silkworm Gu flew back again.
The three of them carried Huang Yin and Rumeng to the bed, covered them with a quilt, then slipped out of the Beauty House and returned to the inn.
At the same time, Gu Xi left two signalmen in Shuzhou and asked them to send her a message immediately if they found anything unusual.
Then I flew to Guizhou.

The next morning, Rumeng woke up in a daze and saw herself and Huang Yin lying in bed. Her memory was a little confused.
How come she remembered not going to bed last night?
"Mr. Huang, wake up." Rumeng pushed him.
Huang Yin suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were somewhat empty.
Ru Meng rubbed the back of her head which was a little painful and said:
"Master Huang, why are we here on the bed?"
Huang Yin said somewhat dully:
"I carried you up here."
Rumeng didn't doubt it too much. After all, she had drunk some wine last night and might be drunk.
Huang Yin put on his outer robe somewhat mechanically. After leaving the Beauty Tower, he did not return home, but went to the military camp outside the city.
Rumeng looked at Huang Yin's departing back and always felt that something was wrong.
Forget it. Why pay so much attention to him? She doesn't really love him. She just covets his power and wealth.
Rumeng continued to lie back and take a nap.
Huang Yin seldom came to the military camp, so Lieutenant General Li felt a little surprised to see him.
"General Huang!" Lieutenant General Li saluted.
Huang Yin stood straight and ordered:
"Gather all the troops and follow me into the prefectural government office."
"Ah?!" Lieutenant General Li was horrified.
"Why?!"
Huang Yin and the prefect are in-laws and have a very good relationship. What happened?
Huang Yin said coldly:
"This general has received a secret decree from the court that the prefect, Fu Bo, has been corrupt and has colluded with foreign enemies. This general must capture Fu Bo today and take control of Shuzhou Prefecture."
Lieutenant General Li was extremely shocked, but military orders were as firm as a mountain, and given the relationship between General Huang and Prefect Fu, he would certainly not wrongly accuse Prefect Fu for no reason.
Perhaps the court really had unfavorable evidence against Governor Fu. After all, the newly enthroned empress appointed Zhou Qing as her chief minister, an upright official with clean hands and a keen eye for detail.
However, the emperor of Shuzhou was far away, and Huang Yin had long been in collusion with Fu Bo. The two of them were in cahoots with each other, deceiving their superiors and hiding the truth from their subordinates, acting like local tyrants.
Shuzhou had a total of 20,000 troops, 10,000 of which were sent to various counties, and the remaining 10,000 were stationed in garrisons outside the Shuzhou city to protect the safety of the Shuzhou city.
Lieutenant General Li arranged two thousand soldiers to guard the four city gates, and then took the remaining eight thousand people and followed Huang Yin into the city.
The soldiers guarding the city were all their own people, so of course they let them pass unconditionally.
In the inn, Nan Keling sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.
Aying and Afang stood by to guard.
The golden silkworm Gu was faintly visible on Nan Keling's forehead, and her forehead was glowing with golden light.
The golden silkworm Gu is the king of Gu insects and can command all Gu insects in the world.
Last night, she had the golden silkworm Gu infect Huang Yin with the most difficult puppet Gu, and was now controlling Huang Yin through her spiritual consciousness.
"General Huang, what are you doing?" The guard at the prefectural yamen asked in surprise when he saw Huang Yin rushing over with his troops.
Huang Yin ignored him and waved his hand woodenly.
"Surround the government office! Go in and arrest them! Don't let any one go!"
The soldiers obeyed the order and some surrounded the enemy and some charged forward.
Soon, the prefectural yamen was surrounded by three layers of enemies, and the yamen runners' resistance was equivalent to nothing under the attack of the army.
The prefect Fu Bo was taken and pressed to the ground.
"Huang Yin! You are crazy!" Fu Bo shouted.
Huang Yin didn't even look at him with his lifeless eyes, and just said word by word:
"Prefect Fu was corrupt and abused his power. The court has solid evidence and has put him in jail. He will be sent to Kyoto to await trial on a later date."
Fu Bo was dragged out by the soldiers, and he yelled unwillingly:
"Huang Yin! If I can't get well, you can forget about it! Do you think you are clean?!"
Fu Bo couldn't figure out why Huang Yin suddenly attacked him?
The two were in-laws and also allies in attack and defense. Normally, even if something happened to him, Huang Yin should have informed him in advance so that he could be prepared.
Inside the inn.
Nan Keling wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh.
"Mission accomplished! Shuzhou has been controlled. Once the Second Elder's troops arrive, they will be able to take over the city defense!"
Ah Ying asked:
"What about the troops in Shuzhou?"
Nan Keling smiled and said nothing.
Ah Fang's eyes lit up and she said:
"Let them attack Guizhou!"
Nan Keling nodded.
"Yes, the Shuzhou soldiers will attack Guizhou. When both sides are defeated, the Fourth Elder can lead his troops to reap the benefits!"
Ah Ying thumbs up:
"What a brilliant idea!"
-O-
Huang Yin = Debauchery
Fu Bo = corruption
The name determines the ending!
