Chapter 163: White Jade Pendant

In the East Camp, a large number of troops arrived and had been placed in the tent of the Gregor camp. When they were ready, Chu Hongyang hurriedly opened the curtain of the main camp and shouted in panic, "Your Highness is not good! The granary in the south is burning!"

"What did you say?" Shen Muchen was panicked and immediately lifted the sword on the table and rushed to the south with Chu Hongyang.

The granary was simply placed near the river, and with the joint efforts of the soldiers, the fire in the granary was quickly extinguished.

"What's going on!" Shen Muchen ran directly to the responsible soldier in the south camp, "Why did he catch fire for no reason? I can't even see a granary, what's the food for!" Shen Muchen's voice was loud and scolded the in charge.

If you want to win a protracted battle on the battlefield, it depends on whether there is enough food and grass on both sides to hold on. Now, before the war begins, food and grass will catch fire. If the soldiers cut off food, how should this battle be fought?

"Go back to Your Highness... I have been guarding here. Except for a few soldiers who transported food, I have never seen anyone else..."

Shen Muchen didn't talk nonsense with the man, and directly lifted the curtain and walked behind the granary. He wanted to find out the reason for the fire.

The night was dark, Mo Ziran followed behind Shen Muchen and lit the lights, "Your Highness, look here."

Shen Muchen turned around and saw Mo Ziran kneeling on one knee on the ground with his body bent and walked forward to observe carefully. There was a pile of dead grass on the ground at the source of the fire, and a pile of powder-like things scattered around him.

Rub a pile of ash objects and put them in front of your nose and smell it, "It's stone phosphorus."

It is obvious that it was done by the enemy. Judging from the location of the flammable material, it is clear that someone sprinkled quicklime around the phosphorus, and lived with water to wait for the quicklime heat, so that the phosphine inside the dead grass felt the heat and then naturally.

When the phosphorus naturally comes into contact with dry dry grass, a bang can cause a large fire.

Mo Ziran stood up, "It seems that Yang Chengren has been involved in our camp. He shouldn't have run far yet. I need to check it one by one."

"No hurry." Shen Muchen stood up and patted the gray on his hand. He looked around with a plain expression and quickly issued an order, "Please please click the amount of grain in stock, and quickly send the news that Yucheng will send relief grain within one day."

Mo Ziran was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly turned around and repeated confirmation, "One day?"

Even if it is a flying pigeon, it takes half a day to deliver the letter, and at least two days to ride a horse to transport grain. How can you arrive in one day?

"Your Highness, is one day too short?" Mo Ziran said, "Two days are feasible?"

Shen Muchen shook his head and replied that two days were too long. He casually glanced at all the stocks. Although there were still some left, it would be a bit tight to fill tens of thousands of troops. It would be difficult to end one day and the second day.

"Just one day," Shen Muchen's tone was very cold. After saying the words, he was about to walk out of the granary, "Go to the main business to find me later."

It is logical that Your Majesty should live in the main business account when he goes to the battle, but the crown prince cannot. In order to cover up, Shen Muchen and Shen Zitian exchanged their tents early and exchanged their identities early. That is to say, at this time, Shen Muchen is in the main business account, not Shen Zitian.

Shen Muchen returned to the main tent alone. As soon as he sat down, he appeared from a hidden place behind him, holding a knife on Shen Muchen's neck, "Your Majesty Yucheng, it's been a long time since he was gone~"

The voice was very familiar, "Are you the man in black last time?" At this point, the person behind him was obviously stunned.

Taking advantage of this, Shen Muchen, a backhander, dropped the knife in the masked man's hand. The masked man stepped back behind him and leaned against the wall. In an instant, the two of them pulled out the long swords at the waist and confronted him head-on.

"You are not Shen Zitian!" The masked man is Wei Hechu. He once fought with Shin Muchen in Yucheng and learned about his skills. The man in front of him had exactly the same gestures as Shin Muchen when he attacked, "You are Shin Muchen?"

"I should ask you this. Your Yang Cheng is still doing things that are the same as before, and he always does something cunning and cunning."

Having said that, Shen Muchen noticed the white jade pendant on the man's belt. The jade pendant had not appeared in front of him for nearly two years. "Who gave this jade pendant to you?" Shen Muchen reached out and went to get the jade pendant.

Wei Hechu quickly hid his eyes and hid to the side before he hid, "What does my jade pendant have to do with you?"

Shen Muchen recalled that after giving the jade pendant in Wanli, Wanli was no longer in Yucheng after the Qingguan Temple incident. He heard that it was very likely that he had gone to Yangcheng. This person was Yangcheng's person. Could it be that Li Wanli gave it to this man by him?

Although Yu'er might not have fallen in love with her at that time, even if she had no feelings for this jade pendant, she would not give it to others for no reason. What's more, Shen Muchen didn't say he gave it to her at the beginning, and he just asked her to keep it for verbally. Yu would give it to others, which made no sense...

"It has nothing to do with me?" Shen Muchen raised his eyebrows and asked, "This jade pendant was given to her by His Highness before she got married to her wife, but she gave it to another man. Why doesn't it have nothing to do with His Highness?"

"Your wife?" Wei Hechu frowned, vaguely asking him to know something.

No, no, they must be talking about two different people, he said, "We are not talking about the same person."

"No, my highness's wife, Li Wan-hyun." Shen Muchen picked up the black cloth that blocked his face, "Your Highness, I have long admired the name of Daqi"

Shen Muchen put down the sword in his hand and inserted it back into the scabbard, "Sneaking into the main tent to assassinate Shen Zitian, I guess the firelight tonight is also from the hands of His Highness Chu." He was not afraid of the sword in Wei Hechu's hand, nor did he call the people outside, but sat steadily on the chair and drank tea.

When Wei Hechu came here, he was very sure to kill Shen Zitian. Shen Zitian was very skilled, and Wei Hechu was more than enough. The only misjudgment was that Shen Muchen appeared in the main account.

Like the night killing two years ago, he is not his opponent, and he is still not now.

Wei Hechu thought Shen Muchen would immediately call people outside. After all, killing Wei Hechu now is as simple as catching a turtle in a jar. "Why don't you ask someone to kill me? If you kill me, don't you win more than half of it?"

"I heard of Your Highness's name when I was twelve years old, and it was one of the few talents in Yang Cheng." Shen Muchen sat down with his back to Wei Hechu, picked up a cup of tea and drank it. He seemed very confident that Wei Hechu would not attack him at this time.
