evening.

Zhou Mu took his family and sneaked out of the city gate.

call!

After a few miles.

Zhou Mu could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This is a difficult decision, but for the sake of my own life, I have to run away, and I can still enjoy the rest of my life relying on the wealth I searched.

In order not to cause trouble, he didn't even bring his own soldiers.

Just my own family.

otherwise.

Bringing one means bringing their family with them.

Old and young.

There are many people talking.

When he arrived in a new place, he would definitely have to hide his identity. These people were unstable factors, and the escape process could not be known to those underlings.

However, not bringing any personal soldiers does not mean that there is no protection.

More than 100 people were transferred directly from a county to respond outside the city.

These people do not know their identities.

soon.

Come to the pick-up location.

Um?

What about people?

Han Zhoumu got out of the carriage and was slightly taken aback, wondering.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

More than a dozen people rushed out from the surrounding woods and surrounded them.

"Why are you here!"

Han Zhoumu's face changed. How could he not recognize the leader, who was the one who was promoted from a county below to assist his son.

able.

will work.

But the situation took a turn for the worse, so I had to abandon it. I didn't expect to see him here.

I thought of many possibilities in my heart, could it be that I want to run with myself?

"Lord State Shepherd, go back."

"..."

Don't you want to run with yourself?

call out!

A knife was suddenly placed on his neck, and the cold blade chilled his heart.

"what are you doing?"

Han Shaomu let out angrily.

The other party smiled lightly and said:

"Take you back to Zhoucheng, just leave without saying hello, and you are too indifferent to those old friends, old subordinates, and the people of Jinzhou."

"Who are you from?" Zhou Mu stared at him.

but.

He overestimated his own importance, and people didn't answer at all.

boom!

With one punch, supper was almost spit out.

Ten seconds later.

Both father and son were tied up tightly, thrown back into the carriage, and sent back to the state city together with their family members. The state shepherd was overjoyed to see that he was returning to his own mansion.

When getting off the carriage, the state shepherd shouted:

"Come on, put..."

Before he finished speaking, the voice froze.

Because he found out that the guards at the entrance of his mansion had been replaced, and he didn't know him at all.

After entering the door, the vigilant people turned into a group of people wearing different armors.

very familiar.

thinking.

Han Shaomu, who had seen this kind of armor with his own eyes, exclaimed.

"Qu Mansion!"

"What?"

"..."

The two of them stared at each other in disbelief.

What's going on, why are the soldiers of the Qu Mansion in the state city? And it also took over the appearance of his own mansion.

Without giving them much time to think about the reason, the family was pushed into the yard.

Seeing this, my heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

really.

In the entire yard, there were no more soldiers, and some bloodstains could still be found on the ground.

Regardless of the dangers of the soldiers, he is still a prisoner.

Take it to the lobby.

Familiar place, familiar tables and chairs, familiar layout, but it is an unfamiliar encounter. This afternoon, I am still the owner of this place.

And now, it's a joke.

After untying.

"sit!"

The man sat in the main seat, Zhou Mu had to sit in the guest seat, looked around with his eyes, and found that there was nowhere to escape, so he could only sigh and let out a long sigh.

He raised his head and stared at each other.

"You were bought by Qufu?"

"No."

"???"

"I was never on your side."

"..."

The father and son were speechless, so angry!

Fortunately, I promoted you to Zhoucheng, but you were never of one mind.

"People from the empire?" asked again.

"No."

"What's the purpose?"

"Take over Jinju."

"..."

The two looked at each other like idiots. After a while, Zhou Mu said frankly:

"I advise you to prepare for the way out earlier, Jinzhou is already out of reach."

"The situation in Shanzhou has been settled."

"The empire will not tolerate Jinju getting stuck in the throat again."

For stability, many messages are blocked.

Even if it was his own subordinates, he did not disclose it.

As for many subordinates who knew about this matter, most of them learned about it through other channels.

so.

In Zhou Mu's mind, the other party probably didn't know about it, because the rise time was short and the information channels had not yet been established, so the delay was high.

I thought the other party would be surprised, but unexpectedly, he just replied with one word:

oh!

next.

Zhou Mu finally knew what the other party wanted to do.

--- Peaceful takeover.

soon.

A stack of documents appeared in front of him, asking him to write a text.

There are mainly two types.

appointment.

Transfer troops.

The former is easy to understand, but seeing the content of the troop deployment, Zhou Mu couldn't help but widen his eyes. What's going on? Is this going to give up the defense of the Zhongzhou state army?

The whole army is transferred to the north?

Just kidding! What about logic?

But soon, a terrible guess emerged from the bottom of my heart.

Zhongzhou.

Ban Xian.

Qufu.



If it is deduced according to this new logic, everything makes sense.

Thinking of this, Zhou Mu couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile.

Ah!

No.

It should not be possible.

A small class, Xian, can't play such a big game.

But this guess became more and more reasonable the more I thought about it, and it lingered in my mind.

. . .

that night.

A group of people came to the state army camp outside the city. In fact, the main force of Jinzhou's state army was not here, and they all defended in the north and west.

There are only more than 20,000 people here, which are conventional defense forces.

"What?"

"I am loyal to Master State Shepherd, why dismiss me?"

The people wearing the armor of Zhou Mu's personal soldiers surrounded Zhou Muyi's confidant, who was also the person in charge here.

"Transferring property, intending to abscond."

"..."

Hearing this, his expression changed.

"I......"

He was at a loss for words and couldn't find a reason to justify it. Zhou Mu must have found solid evidence to issue this order, otherwise, he would not be easily moved.

"Take it!"

"I want to see the state shepherd."

"good."

It was taken away directly, and as for the position, of course it was replaced by the new one.

Come to the State Shepherd's Mansion.

He was dumbfounded.

"Coming!"

Zhou Mu looked complicated.

"Lord State Shepherd, what's the matter?"

Looking around, my confidant's brain is not enough, I wanted to cry, I was ready to cry, but suddenly I was scared back by the scene in front of me.

"As you can see, this place has been taken over by people from the Qu Mansion."

"..."

After listening to Zhou Mu's explanation, seeing that his expression was not joking, his confidant was completely dumbfounded.

resist?

Upon entering, the weapons were confiscated.

call out?

Zhou Mu's mansion is so big that no outsiders will hear him screaming.

And soon, familiar figures appeared one by one.

"Wow!"

"Lord State Shepherd, this subordinate was with you...huh?"

"Forehead!"

Some of them had good acting skills, and they burst into tears as soon as they entered the door. When they saw the strange situation in the yard, they stopped abruptly.

Put on a face, big eyes and small eyes.

. . .

In this way, in just two days, Jinzhou Mansion was taken over.
