Chengwu County, where Dongqing is located, went west and captured the two small counties of Dangshan and Fengxian.

There are various signs that Lin Jue's prediction is coming true. It is obvious that Guo Xu is deliberately delaying time. He has no intention of wiping out the cult bandits in one fell swoop, but is just pretending to be pretentious.

Guo Kun still had a trace of fantasy in his heart. Even in the face of such obvious signs, he still felt that Guo Xu might have ulterior motives in using military force and did not dare to actually kill people with a borrowed knife. However, the arrival of a person not long after was completely shattered.

Guo Kun’s last fantasy.

On the evening of August 24th, when Lin Jue and Guo Kun were sitting under the pomegranate tree in the small courtyard to discuss and analyze the situation, the palace guards who were responsible for guarding the residence excitedly surrounded a person who came in from the courtyard, laughing and joking as they walked.

Talking. Lin Jue and Guo Kun both stood up at the same time when they saw this person. This person was known to both Lin Jue and Guo Kun. He was Sun Dayong, the former captain of the palace guard team and now the deputy captain of Linzhai security.

"Why are you here?" Lin Jue and Guo Kun asked at the same time.

Sun Dayong's body was covered with dust, his appearance was covered with dust, and his clothes were in tatters, making him look like a beggar.

"Sun Dayong has met the young prince and Lord Lin. I am so thirsty that my throat is on fire. Which brother can go get me a ladle of cold water to drink?" Sun Dayong shouted while saluting.

Lin Jue picked up the cold teapot on the table and handed it over. Sun Dayong was not polite, took it and drank it down, then he breathed a sigh of relief and burped with satisfaction.

Guo Kun knew that Sun Dayong was working in Lin Jue's house now, so he thought he was from the capital. He frowned and asked, "Are you here to see Lin Jue? What happened to Lin Jue's family? Is the little princess okay?"

Lin Jue rolled his eyes and thought to himself: This uncle is really a crow's mouth. Something happened to your family.

"He's not from the capital, he should be from Yingtian Mansion. Brother Sun, why are you here? Have the affairs of Yingtian Mansion been settled? Are Miss Zheng and the others okay?" Lin Jue asked.

Sun Dayong hurriedly said: "Report to Mr. Lin, I am coming from Yingtian Mansion. Miss Zheng, Miss Qian and the others are all fine. Someone has escorted them back to the capital. I was supposed to escort them, but I have something important to report.

So I came directly to see Mr. Lin."

Lin Jue nodded and said happily: "Okay, then I'm relieved. Brother Sun, thank you for your hard work. Come sit down and talk. Oh, I've been worried about their safety, for fear that the Qingjiao would harm dozens of people in the Grand Theater. Now it's good

Now that everything is safe, I feel relieved."

Sun Dayong said: "Young Master, please forgive me. I only rescued Miss Zheng, Miss Qian and a dozen others. Others from the Grand Theater had already disappeared when I arrived. I also looked for them afterwards, but could not find them."

.I am incompetent, so I went a step too late. The main reason is that I have been unable to enter the city, which delayed the rescue."

Lin Jue was stunned and asked about the list of missing persons. Among them were several descendants of the Lin family and people from Hangzhou. He could not help but look gloomy and sigh. But Lin Jue also understood that this was actually a good result.

, in fact, when he asked Sun Dayong to rescue him, he had already thought of the worst outcome. When Yingtian fell and the cult bandits were rampant, there was no guarantee.
