Chapter 543 Duguce’s Determination

In the next few days, Yunzheng still couldn't even leave the door.

Only people saw people from the palace going to the palace to grab medicine.

No one knows whether Prince Yunzheng is dead or alive, and no one can get close to the palace.

The entire palace was tightly guarded by Yun Zheng's personal guards. Some people wanted to visit the palace, but they were almost beaten.

What the people in the palace claimed to the outside world was that Yun Zheng was fine at all and was just making plans for Shuobei's people's livelihood, and no one was allowed to disturb him.

The reaction of the guards in the palace seemed to indicate that there was no silver in this place.

Under such circumstances, the news of Yunzheng's assassination spread even more wildly.

Even Duguce, who was far away on the border, had received some rumors.

Duguce didn't know whether Yunzheng was really assassinated.

But there is no smoke without fire.

Since there are such rumors, I'm afraid there really is something going on!

Moreover, he also heard that the Eighteen Ghost Cavalry who were resting beside Gu had rushed to Dingbei.

Duguce naturally knew about Yunzheng's Eighteen Ghost Riders.

As long as the Eighteen Ghost Riders are dispatched, it will definitely not be a good thing!

The more Dugu Ce thought about it, he became restless and wanted to rush to Dingbei immediately to understand the situation.

However, Duguce didn't dare to move now.

The news of Yunzheng's assassination may have spread among the army.

If he runs to Dingbei again, the army will probably be even more panicked.

By then, there might be some trouble.

Just as Dugu Ce was pacing back and forth, the commander of the soldiers suddenly walked in quickly and said, "Deputy Commander, Zhou Mi has led his people here. He said he has a secret order from His Highness!"

"What are you waiting for?"

Dugu Ce glared at the commander of the soldiers, "Bring the people in quickly!"

"Yes!"

The commander of the soldiers quickly retreated and soon brought Zhou Mi in.

"I've met the deputy commander!"

As soon as Zhou Mi came in, he saluted Dugu Ce.

"It's time now, so don't show any false pretense!"

Dugu Ce waved his hand to the commander of the soldiers to retreat, and hurriedly asked Zhou Mi: "Tell me quickly, what is your highness's secret order?"

Zhou Mi didn't say much, and immediately took out a letter and handed it to Dugu Ce.

Dugu Ce grabbed the letter, but as soon as he opened it, his expression suddenly changed.

Yunzheng's handwriting is easy to read!

In the entire Beifu Army, Yunzheng's handwriting is probably the most recognizable.

No other reason, just because Yunzheng writes with a quill pen.

Yun Zheng's characters can be recognized at a glance.

Although the secret order in front of me was also written with a quill pen, I could tell at a glance that it was not written by Yun Zheng himself.

This obviously has some traces of imitation.

For a person who is used to using a brush, writing with a quill will definitely feel different.

Duguce immediately thought of Miaoyin.

He remembered that Miaoyin had imitated Gayao's handwriting and wrote a letter from Gayao to Yunzheng.

"Isn't this a personal letter from His Highness?"

Dugu Ce raised his head and looked at Zhou Mi coldly.

"It's a personal letter from His Highness."

Zhou Mi looked calm and said confidently.

"fart!"

Duguce shouted angrily: "You think I can't recognize His Highness's handwriting!"

Zhou Mi was not afraid of Dugu Ce's gaze at all, and said with a smile: "His Highness was assassinated and his shoulder was injured. Writing this word will naturally be a little different from before."

"His Highness was really assassinated?" Dugu Ce's eyelids twitched and he looked at Zhou Mi sharply.

"Yes."

Zhou Mi nodded, "However, His Highness is not seriously ill and should be able to recover in a few days."

"It's nothing serious?" Dugu Ce's face suddenly fell. He grabbed Zhou Mi and growled with a frosty face: "Do you think I'm stupid? If His Highness was nothing serious, why did you send the secret order now? It's so early. What did you do?"

"Your Highness didn't write it before!" Zhou Mi laughed dryly.

Didn't you write it?

Dugu Ce's eyes were cold and stern.

There's nothing wrong with Zhou Mi's words.

However, based on his experience, Zhou Mi was obviously lying.

Dugu Ce let go of Zhou Mi, gritted his teeth and growled: "What happened to Your Highness?"

"Your Highness, it's really nothing serious." Zhou Mi still laughed dryly.

"It better be!"

Dugu Ce glanced at Zhou Mi coldly, "Then you go back and report to His Highness now, and tell His Highness that Dugu Ce accepts the order! After the general has finished handling these matters, he will immediately rush to Dingbei to visit His Highness!"

Zhou Mi and the others left just as quickly as they came.

As soon as Zhou Mi left, Dugu Ce's military commander came in.

"Deputy Commander, is something really wrong with His Highness?"

The commander of the soldiers asked hurriedly.

"Why are you asking so many questions? Is this what you should ask?"

Dugu Ce's face suddenly fell, "Do your own thing, and don't pry if you shouldn't!"

"Deputy Commander!" The commander of the soldiers came forward and persuaded in a low voice: "This is a good opportunity for the Deputy Commander to take charge of the Beifu Army! If the Deputy Commander takes charge of the Beifu Army and then hands over the general power to the Holy One, the Holy One will definitely..."

"Shut up!"

Dugu Ce coldly interrupted the commander of the soldiers, "Let me tell you, I, Dugu Ce, am the deputy commander of the Beifu Army! I was before and I am now! You have been following me for many years. I don't want to kill you, so you'd better leave me alone." !”

"Deputy Commander!"

The commander of the soldiers was unwilling to give in and persuaded again: "I know that His Highness the Sixth Prince has done a great job for me, but isn't something happened to him now? If the deputy commander is not in charge of the Beifu Army, will he just watch others seize power?"

He was the commander of Dugu Ce's personal soldiers. He naturally knew that Dugu Ce was the person sent by Emperor Wen to contain and monitor Wei Wenzhong.

Dugu Ce had no choice but to help Yun Zheng seize the military power of the Beifu Army.

After all, at that time, there was a powerful enemy, and only Yun Zheng could stabilize the Beifu Army and avoid civil strife in the Beifu Army.

But it’s different now!

Something happened to Yunzheng now.

Beihuan has also been completely pacified.

If Dugu Ce took the opportunity to seize the military power of the Beifu Army and then returned the military power to Emperor Wen, Emperor Wen would definitely not hold him accountable for helping Yun Zheng seize power, and would reward him lavishly.

In terms of merit, he can definitely be named the Duke of the country!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

The soldier commander was still trying to persuade him, but Dugu Ce suddenly drew his sword and put it on his neck, "Come here!"

Following Dugu Ce's sharp shout, several soldiers outside immediately ran in.

"Tied!"

Dugu Ce looked at the commander of the soldiers with a frosty face, "I gave you a chance!"

"Deputy Commander!"

The face of the commander of the soldiers changed drastically, and he still refused to persuade: "I am doing this for the deputy commander's benefit!"

"Tied!"

Duguce shouted angrily again.

Several soldiers came to their senses and quickly tied up the commander of the soldiers with ropes.

"Deputy Marshal, I hold a humble position just for the sake of Deputy Marshal and for great achievements..."

The commander of the soldiers kept shouting.

"Put him in jail! Let him be punished!"

Dugu Ce remained unmoved and waved angrily at several soldiers.

"Deputy Commander, Deputy Commander..."

The voice of the commander of the soldiers gradually faded away, and Dugu Ce's face turned cold and stern.

He has already betrayed Emperor Wen!

Although it was a last resort, it was still a betrayal after all.

Is there any reason for a traitor to be reused?
