Chapter 565 There is another plan to kill Shen Chengjing
The war did not go as smoothly as in his previous life, and Shen Chengjing's plan had been shelved. He stayed in the Northern Border City, waiting for the emperor's instructions.
In fact, he was very anxious and uneasy during this period.
The main reason is that the difference between the wars in this life and the previous life is really too great.
He was afraid that the emperor would blame him.
"Lord Shen!" a voice suddenly sounded.
The man who came was one of the secret guards hiding in the northern border with Shen Chengjing, named Lin Da.
"Brother Lin, how come you have time to come to my place today? Let's go to a pub outside and have a few drinks."
"Forget about today. I have official business today. I wanted to borrow some silver from you. The environment in the North is harsh. My shoes are torn. I want to buy a new pair of shoes, but I have used up all the silver I have. The torn shoes affect my movements. I really have no other choice. I hope Lord Shen can help me with this."
"That's nothing. I just happen to have some silver on me. Just take it." Shen Chengjing generously took off his purse and handed it to Lin Da.
"Thank you, Lord Shen. I will return your salary as soon as I get it. I'm leaving now!"
"Brother Lin, wait a moment. Can I ask you what mission you are going to carry out? Did the emperor issue any new orders?"
"It's not a big deal, actually. The Emperor has reopened the Royal Merchants Company and appointed the Crown Prince's wife as the Royal Merchant. The Crown Prince's wife is now in the county town, less than a hundred miles away from us. I was ordered to go there secretly to protect her. Maybe, in a few days, the Crown Prince's wife will leave."
"You mean the Crown Prince's wife, Ji Chuhe?"
"Yes." Lin nodded, "Master Shen, I'm leaving first."
Shen Chengjing's mood could never calm down again.
Ji Chuhe actually became the imperial merchant. In this life, the emperor discovered Ji Chuhe's abilities and didn't care that she was a woman and made her the imperial merchant!
He couldn't help but touch the scar left by the stab from Ji Chuhe.
How could she hate him so much?
I wish I could kill him with my own hands!
He has always been wondering whether Ji Chuhe has been reborn. This question has always troubled him.
When he thought that Ji Chuhe was less than a hundred miles away from him, he was very excited. If he rushed over now, would he still be able to meet her?
He really wants to save Ji Chuhe!
He wanted Ji Chuhe to know that the Huaiyang Palace would not have a good end.
If she continues to be so stubborn, she will definitely be implicated by Xiao Yan'an. By then, even if she is an imperial merchant, as long as she is the Crown Prince's wife, she will not be able to escape death!
Thinking of this, Shen Chengjing immediately walked out.
Ji Chuhe was strolling on the street. From the moment she got off the carriage, she felt that someone was staring at her.
A barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
Shen Chengjing, since you dare to come, don't even think about leaving alive.
Last time, she did it herself, but this time, she set a tight net and waited for Shen Chengjing to fall into it.
Lin Yi is from Chao Sihai.
It was he who deliberately lured Shen Chengjing here.
Ji Chuhe was still worried that Shen Chengjing would not come!
"Sister-in-law, please wait for me for a moment. I still think that hairpin I just saw is very beautiful. I will go buy it." Rong Qingqing said to Ji Chuhe.
"Okay, be careful." Ji Chuhe responded.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law!" Rong Qingqing ran away.
Ji Chuhe looked at Rong Qingqing's back and smiled. She looked around, turned and walked into the shop next to her.
Suddenly, a figure quickly appeared in front of her.
"It's you?" Ji Chuhe exclaimed.
"He'er, don't be afraid. I will never hurt you! I have something very important to tell you. This matter concerns your life and safety. You must listen to me."
"It is said that the emperor wants to kill Prince Huaiyang. Will all the people in Prince Huaiyang's mansion be executed?" Ji Chuhe asked back in a cold voice.
"I know you don't believe me, but I really have a way to prove that what I said is true. This is not the place to talk. Can you leave with me and find a quiet place? I will tell you slowly." Shen Chengjing said anxiously.
Ji Chuhe was conflicted.
"Believe me, I can save your life!" Shen Chengjing became even more anxious.
Ji Chuhe finally nodded.
"At the end of the street, there is a small hill with a pavilion on it. You go there first and I will follow." Ji Chuhe pointed to a place.
"Okay." Shen Chengjing nodded immediately and walked in the direction Ji Chuhe said.
He is not afraid of fraud.
Because before coming, he had already found out that Ji Chuhe was surrounded by secret guards sent by the emperor, and they were in cahoots with him. Even if Ji Chuhe ordered those secret guards to kill him, those secret guards would not listen to her.
What's more, Ji Chuhe seemed unaware that she was protected by secret guards sent by the emperor.
Even if Ji Chuhe was accompanied by the guards she brought with her, the secret guards would not watch those guards take his life.
As soon as Shen Chengjing climbed up the hill, he saw Rong Song's figure.
A trace of fear suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he turned around and tried to escape.
Rong Song's sword had already flown out of his hand and swept across Shen Chengjing's leg. Shen Chengjing immediately fell to his knees, blood flowing from his legs. He rolled on the ground holding his legs in pain.
The secret guard did not take any action!
Shen Chengjing was confused.
Rong Song put away his sword, came to Shen Chengjing, picked him up, threw him into the pavilion, then pulled out a rope and tied Shen Chengjing up tightly.
Shen Chengjing's vision went dark due to the pain, but he still saw Ji Chuhe walking slowly towards him.
Shen Chengjing suddenly became excited and struggled to get up.
"He'er, I am your husband! In this life, it was Ji Qingyuan who separated us. Do you know how loving we were in our previous life? I became a powerful official second only to one emperor, and you were my wife, living a glorious life, and we also had a son!" Shen Chengjing shouted anxiously.
"Shen Chengjing, today is the day you die, so be prepared to die." Ji Chuhe turned his wrist and took out the knife in his hand.
"No, no! You won't kill me." Shen Chengjing shook his head in panic.
Ji Chuhe took the knife and stabbed it into Shen Chengjing's body.
Shen Chengjing opened his eyes wide and looked at the place where Ji Chuhe stabbed his body. A hint of surprise first appeared in his eyes, and then, as if he had confirmed something, he returned to normal.
"So... that's how it is. You are also..." Before Shen Chengjing could finish his words, Ji Chuhe pushed the knife in a little more fiercely.
Shen Chengjing was in so much pain that he couldn't speak, and blood suddenly gushed out of his mouth.
Ji Chuhe did not let go until Shen Chengjing died completely. Then she slowly let go of his hand and wiped the blood off her hands with a handkerchief in disgust.
