Chapter 372: Keep Your Word

Jiming Mountain.

Temporary residence.

In the tent, Hu Fei was sitting on the couch, eating.

The food was game that Li Wenzhong personally ordered people to hunt in the mountains and forests. It had been prepared long ago. When he learned that Hu Fei wanted to eat, he immediately gave it to Chundie.

Chundie's craftsmanship is indeed impressive, and the taste is very good. She stewed a small pot full of game, which almost made Hu Fei almost finish it all by himself.

After eating and drinking, Hu Fei felt as if all the strength he had lost had returned. He was in high spirits and couldn't help but sigh that the medicine Xiao An gave him was indeed a miracle medicine for healing.

"Send an order to Qi Yun to bring in those two alive, and also notify Li Wenzhong and Xiong Lin to come to my tent."

Hu Fei wiped his mouth with satisfaction and said lightly.

Pei Jie agreed and immediately turned around and left the camp.

Not long after, Li Wenzhong led Xiong Lin into the camp quickly. When they saw Hu Fei, who had regained his energy in less than two days, the two looked at each other and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"It seems that your injury has almost recovered. It's unbelievable."

Li Wenzhong looked at Hu Fei and said slightly surprised.

"Thank you to the Governor for the game. Without this pot of meat, I'm afraid I wouldn't have recovered so quickly."

Hu Fei smiled and said slowly.

"It's just a little effort. I'm happy to see that you can recover so quickly. When you return to the capital tomorrow, you can explain it to your father."

Li Wenzhong waved his hand and said sincerely.

Although this trip to Jiming Mountain was thrilling, fortunately nothing happened. Otherwise, when he returns to the capital, there may be more than one person who wants to hold him accountable.

"Don't worry, even if you are seriously injured and die, it has nothing to do with the Governor. All consequences will be borne by me alone."

Hu Fei pursed his lips and smiled and said nonchalantly.

At this moment, Qi Yun slowly walked in with people escorting the two survivors.

Seeing this scene, Li Wenzhong and Xiong Lin couldn't help being stunned, and looked at the two people curiously.

They had long heard that Hu Fei had captured two people alive under the cliff, and they had always wanted to see them, but they were told that Hu Fei had already given an order, and no one was allowed to come near without his consent.

As soon as the two prisoners entered the camp, they glanced at Hu Fei in horror, then buried their heads deeply and trembled all over. They were not at all like they were when they besieged the Temple of Meritorious Officers.

Obviously, they were frightened out of their wits by being killed one by one by Xiao An while escaping.

But they didn't know who Xiao An was, let alone that Xiao An didn't exist in the eyes of Li Wenzhong and Xiong Lin.

Hu Fei was not worried that these two people would reveal the existence of Xiao An, because in everyone's hearts, he was already the one who killed all Beiyuan spies.

Moreover, when Xiao An killed someone, he did not show his true face at all.

After Qi Yun escorted the two men into the camp without saying a word, he made the two men kneel in front of Hu Fei, holding two knives on their necks. The two men were trembling all over and their faces were as pale as snow.

"How many of your people came to attack Jiming Mountain this time? Are there any who are hiding in the mountain and haven't shown up yet?"

Hu Fei looked at the two of them, paused, and asked calmly.

But after listening to Hu Fei's questions, neither of the two people spoke, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads.

"If the Marquis asks you again, why don't you actually recruit me?!"

Qi Yun's face darkened, he patted the two of them hard with the back of his knife, and shouted sternly.

"No more, all those people who appeared last night are gone!"

One of them hurriedly raised his hands and said tremblingly.

"Where did the man who led you come from?"

Hu Fei looked at the person who spoke and continued to ask.

"Spring...Chunqiu Hall..."

The man trembled and said the words Chunqiu Hall intermittently.

After hearing this answer, Hu Fei couldn't help but squint his eyes. This was the first time he had heard about the Chunqiu Tang organization.

"What is your purpose in attacking Jiming Mountain this time?"

Hu Fei hesitated for a moment, then changed the topic and asked again.

"The order we received is to destroy the Temple of Heroes and create civil strife in the capital."

The man lowered his head and continued speaking, not daring to raise his head to look at Hu Fei from beginning to end.

Hearing this answer, Hu Fei couldn't help but curl his lips and sneer, and instantly felt that Beiyuan's demise was already a matter of time.

No matter who gave the order, he was an extremely stupid person. If the Temple of Heroes was really destroyed, Zhu Yuanzhang would be furious. He would probably send all his troops northward to kill the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. That would be the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

disaster.

"Do you two have anything else to ask?"

Hu Fei had finished asking all the questions he wanted to ask. He turned to look at Li Wenzhong and Xiong Lin and asked slowly.

"temporarily unavailable."

Li Wenzhong hesitated for a moment and answered softly.

"Since there is nothing more to ask, let's pull it down and chop it down."

Hu Fei nodded and said lightly.

But after hearing his words, Li Wenzhong and Xiong Lin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Logically speaking, since someone is captured alive, they need to be escorted back to the capital first.

"Isn't it inappropriate to do this? Should I be escorted back to the capital and handed over to the Criminal Department for trial? Maybe we can dig out more information about Beiyuan's spies."

Li Wenzhong said hesitantly.

"They are just two unknown people. Even if they are taken back, I'm afraid they won't be able to find out anything."

"I said that I will not let any invading enemy walk out of Jiming Mountain alive. We must keep our word."

Hu Fei smiled and said seriously.

"Pull them out and chop them off. When you return to the capital tomorrow, hang their heads on the top of the city, and then announce to the world that from now on, anyone who dares to set foot in the capital will die without a complete body!"

Come back!"

Then, Hu Fei glanced at Qi Yun, waved his hand, and said lightly.

Qi Yun agreed, ignoring Li Wenzhong and Xiong Lin, and led his men to escort the two people out.

"Spare your life! Spare your life!"

The two men were about to cry, but they finally raised their heads and looked at Hu Fei in horror, pleading loudly.

But Hu Fei said nothing more, as if he didn't hear anything and didn't even look at it again.

Soon, the two men were taken out of the camp, and soon there were two muffled groans, and it seemed that their heads had been chopped off.

Li Wenzhong and Xiong Lin froze on the spot, looking at Hu Fei, speechless for a moment.

This was the first time that Li Wenzhong lost the power to give orders in the army. He did not expect that Hu Fei would dare to let his men kill the two men in front of him.

"Grand Governor, you don't have any objection to my decision, do you?"

Hu Fei looked at Li Wenzhong with a smile and asked softly, with a harmless smile on his face.

"No, no."

Li Wenzhong forced a smile, shook his head and said.

While talking and laughing, they decapitated the enemy. Although the opponents were just two unknown soldiers, Li Wenzhong felt for the first time that Hu Fei had a ruthlessness hidden under his smile. This feeling made his hair stand on end.

"That's good, that's good."

Hu Fei smiled and said slowly.

Immediately, after the three of them exchanged some pleasantries, Hu Fei issued an order to expel the guests on the grounds of being sleepy.

After Li Wenzhong and Xiong Lin said goodbye, they slowly left the camp.

After the two left, a meaningful sneer flashed across Hu Fei's lips.

In fact, the reason why he conducted the basically meaningless interrogation just now in front of Li Wenzhong and Xiong Lin was to confirm the fact that he had wiped out all the Beiyuan spies in Jiming Mountain, so that he could do it after returning to Beijing.

Next step plan.

...

Early the next morning.

The army gathered, and everyone evacuated Jiming Mountain except for the garrison of the Meritorious Temple who stayed behind.

Hu Fei also got on the Buhu specially built by Li Wenzhong. Surrounded by everyone, he slowly went down the mountain. Finally, he changed to a carriage at the foot of the mountain and returned to the capital.

After another night of recuperation, Hu Fei's injury got better and better, and he had basically recovered except that he was still unable to walk.

The capital received the news early in the morning, and Hu Weiyong and Princess Anqing came to the city gate at the same time, waiting for Hu Fei's return.

At the same time, news of the victory at Jiming Mountain also spread in the capital city. The people in the city were all excited when they heard it. They gathered at the city gate one after another, waiting for the triumphant return of Jiu'an Hou...
