Chapter 5418 Utilization

"Reporting to the Lord, I only know..."

Gu Mie bowed his head and answered respectfully, telling everything he knew about what happened in the Ji family.

But he only knew what happened before he fell into a coma.

As for the fact that Zhang Yifeng and others disguised themselves as Chang Sheng and left, and took Lu Shang away, he knew nothing about it.

"Hehe, it seems that the Ji family has long harbored evil intentions, and the master's choice this time is not wrong."

"Not only did they secretly hide such a powerful master, they even secretly contacted the enemy country!"

"It's a pity that we didn't remove this nail planted in the empire in time, and now it has become a force to be reckoned with."

Gu Fa said coldly with a sinister look on his face.

"My Lord, the body of Lu Shang, the son of Qingbei Hou, was found here!"

Suddenly, a voice came into Gu Fa's ears, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

When he flashed to the side of the man, Gu Fa saw the body disguised as Lu Shang by Zhang Yifeng.

Looking at the cold air emanating from the wound of the corpse, Gu Fa's mouth curled up a strange smile.

"Hehe, I was just worried about who to send to attack the Snow Country, but I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain."

The current plan must be to send troops to attack the Snow Country, but Gu Fa didn't want to consume the royal family's military strength because of this.

But now with the corpse of Lu Shang, it can be used to let Qingbei Hou attack the Snow Country.

Whether or not the Snow Country can be conquered by then, it will be a win-win situation for the royal family.

After all, Qingbei Hou, like the Ji family, is a person who refuses to accept the master's recruitment.

Originally, they planned to deal with the Ji family first, and then find an opportunity to get rid of Qingbei Hou at the same time.

But now that the Ji family has escaped, Qingbei Hou has become a chess piece they can use.

"Hehe, send this body to Qingbei Hou Mansion, and I don't need to teach you what to do next."

Gu Fa sneered and instructed the black shadow beside him.

"Don't worry, sir. I will send the body to the Qingbei Marquis's mansion."

The person beside him bowed and accepted the order, then picked up Lu Shang's body and disappeared on the spot.

"Gu Mie, you are the only one who survived this operation. According to the master's rules, you would have died."

"But now I can make the decision to give you a chance to make up for your mistakes."

"When Qingbei Marquis leads his troops to attack the Snow Country, you will go with him and look for an opportunity to kill Qingbei Marquis."

Gu Fa turned his head and took a deep look at Gu Mie who had struggled to get up, and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, I will not disappoint the expectations of the master and sir!"

Gu Mie lowered his head and clenched his fists, and responded in a concentrated voice.

"Hmph, go back and heal your wounds!"

Gu Fa snorted coldly, and then his figure disappeared on the spot.

At the same time, the other black shadows that followed him also disappeared with him.

"Damn the Snow Tribe, damn the Ji family!"

After everyone disappeared, Gu Mie smashed the wall beside him with a punch, his eyes full of rising anger.

At the same time, in the Qingbei Marquis Mansion in the imperial city, Lu Ji, with a dignified face, was waiting in the study.

He had ordered the servants to send Lu Shang to the study immediately as soon as he returned to the Marquis Mansion to wait for the family law.

Lu Ji had already heard from the servants about the stupid things Lu Shang had done in Zuixianglou.

For this useless son, Lu Ji must teach him a lesson.

But after waiting for a long time in the mansion, Lu Shang still hadn't come back until late at night, and Lu Ji couldn't help but feel angry.

It seems that he has not disciplined this stinky boy too much recently, and now he dares to hide and not go home.

Just as Lu Ji was waiting with anger, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the study.

Then the door of the study was pushed open.

"Why, is that brat back?"

Lu Ji put down the military book in his hand and asked the servant who rushed in with a solemn face.

"No, no, Lord Marquis..."

The servant's face was full of fear, and he stammered and couldn't say a complete sentence.

Lu Ji was shocked when he saw this and stood up from his chair.

"What happened? Why are you so panicked!"

Lu Ji widened his eyes and shouted at the servant angrily.

"Report, Lord Marquis, the people in the palace sent the body of the young Lord back..."

The servant was frightened by Lu Ji's momentum, and hurriedly lowered his head and took a deep breath, and told Lu Ji the sad news.

"What?!"

Lu Ji's pupils suddenly dilated and shouted angrily.

After saying this, without waiting for the servant to respond, Lu Ji punched the wall of the study and rushed straight to the reception room of the Marquis's mansion.

Concerned about the safety of his son, Lu Ji rushed to the reception room in just a few breaths.

At this time, a man in black was half-kneeling on the ground in the reception room.

Next to him, there was a corpse covered with a white cloth.

"What's going on!"

Lu Ji roared angrily after rushing to the reception room.

"Lord Qingbei Hou, you are finally here!"

The half-kneeling figure turned his head and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"I ask you what is going on!"

Lu Ji came to him with a dignified face and lifted the man up with one hand.

"Qing, Lord Qingbei Hou, I know you are very angry about the loss of your beloved son, but please calm down."

The royal guardian who was lifted up swallowed his saliva and said with a trembling voice.

Lu Ji's fingers trembled slightly when he heard the words, but he still put the man down.

After being put down, the royal guardian hurriedly lifted the white cloth on the ground, revealing the fake body of Lu Shang.

When he saw his son's face and the familiar breath left on his body, Lu Ji froze in place.

"Lord Qingbei Hou, we found the body of the young marquis in the Ji family."

"In addition to the young marquis, the imperial general Chang Sheng and his soldiers all died in the Ji family."

"According to our observation, it should be that the Ji family colluded with the snow tribe and murdered the young marquis and general Chang Sheng."

The royal guardian said, pointing to the penetrating wound on the chest of Lu Shang's body.

At this time, there was still a faint frost on the wound.

Lu Ji's palm trembled and covered the wound, and he immediately sensed the cold air.

As the Qingbei Hou of the empire, he had also fought with the snow tribe, and naturally knew that this was the injury caused by the unique innate cold air of the snow tribe.

"Impossible, the Ji family and my Lu family are old friends, how could they kill my son!"

Lu Ji roared, unwilling to believe the words he said.

"Lord Qingbei Hou, the facts are in front of you. If you don't believe it, you can go to the Ji family with me to check it out."

"There are still some branches in the Ji family who have not escaped. You may be able to learn more comprehensive information from them."

The royal guardian showed a sad look on his face and advised in a deep voice.

Lu Ji did not reply, but knelt on the ground and hugged his son's body tightly.
