My Wife Is A General Who Killed Tens Of Thousands On The Battlefield Chapter 149

Chapter 149 - Unexpected Assassination

Chapter 149 Unexpected Assassination

It was already late at night, but Su Wen’s residence was still brightly lit.

Su Wen was holding an intelligence report that his subordinate had just sent over.

There were two sets in total. One was collected by the Secret Shadow Guard, and the other was collected by Sun Wei.

However, the main character for both reports was Yao Gu.

Su Wen looked at the two reports seriously.

The information gathered by the Secret Shadow Guard was very official based, including Yao Gu’s age, cultivation level, official position, recent personnel, interpersonal relationships, and so on.

But to Su Wen, it was a little crude.

However, this made sense if you thought about it. The Secret Shadow Guards had not been reestablished for a long time, so naturally, the construction of the intelligence network had not been completed yet.

On the contrary, the information that Sun Wei sent was very interesting.

“Yao Gu’s servant Zhang Wu likes to gamble…”

“Yao Gu’s son is battle-hungry and ruthless. He often duels with others… and kills many people…”

“Yao Gu’s wife is fierce. Yao Gu had a concubine a few years ago… who was supposedly killed by her.”

“Yao Gu has a tough personality. In his early years, he would often hit his wife. The most ruthless time was when he broke his wife’s arm…”

Su Wen looked at the intelligence placed in front of him.

The personalities of the Yao family of three gradually surfaced before their eyes. They were all hot-tempered people. He once again picked up the report from the Secret Shadow Guard.

“Yao Gu has three other residences… located separately in…”

Su Wen knocked on the table and fell into deep thought.

Was there any evidence against Yao Gu?

The Secret Shadow Guard had not found any yet, but Su Wen did not believe that he was that honest.

To put it bluntly, there were far too few honest officials in the current Great Zhou.

“The residences in these three rooms aren’t small. This Yao Gu must be quite wealthy,” Su Wen muttered to himself.

The Capital City Province’s spear instructor was in charge of training and evaluating the high-ranking military officers who used spears in the capital. So if there was nothing fishy going on, Su Wen would not believe it!

In a place like this, anyone who wanted a fast track would naturally pay money.

It was a really lucrative job. Why did Meng Zhiping have such a good reputation in the pugilistic world? To put it bluntly, he was a money-grubber who welcomed and sent people over. It was very ostentatious and everyone naturally praised him.

If he were to live his life honestly and by himself, who would speak up for him?

100,000 taels of silver was considered a huge sum, but Meng Wei had rejected it without batting an eye. It was obvious that Meng Zhiping’s family was quite wealthy. After pondering for a while, Su Wen kept the intelligence reports.

He went to Xie Yiyi’s room.

“Your mother still hasn’t contacted you?” Su Wen asked.

Xie Yiyi’s mood was somewhat downcast as she nodded her head and said, “After my mother was pursued by the Taihao Palace’s Ox-nosed Old Daoist, there has been no news of her. I’ve already used a secret technique of the Demonic Music Sect to contact her, but there has been no response.”

Su Wen shook his head and sighed. “Let’s wait and see. I’ll try my best to ask around.” “Ok….”

Xie Yiyi replied softly.

She then blushed as she looked at Su Wen and smiled. “Will you accompany me tonight?”

Unexpectedly, Su Wen shook his head and said, “No, I have a dinner party to attend.”

Xie Yiyi rolled her eyes at him and said with a smile, “It’s already so late. The only place you can still have food is at the four brothels of the capital, right? Does my husband need special services along with his meal?”

“Naughty! Sleep early! It’s the Second Prince and Zhao Rui who invited me today, so it’s not good for me to miss it.”

Su Wen finished speaking and left the room.

It was already late at night, but Zhao Jin and Chu He were already waiting at the door.

Su Wen got into the carriage and smiled. “Let’s go to General Wu’s residence!”

Zhao Jin was rather surprised, “Young master, didn’t you say that you were going out with the second prince…”

Su Wen smiled and said, “I was planning to bring Wu Lie out to see the world today. This fellow did a good job. However, he didn’t dare to bring anyone out at night as he was afraid that his father would find out, so I’m going to fetch him.”

Su Wen planned to nurture Wu Lie into a spy in the Wu Residence!

The carriage slowly drove towards the general’s residence.

Suddenly, Chu He, who was sitting beside Zhao Jin, said, “Young Master, if that Yao Gu is too troublesome for you, I can accept his challenge.”

Su Wen’s voice sounded from the carriage. “What are the chances of winning?”

“10%.”

Actually, it might not even be 10%, but Chu He was never one to be afraid of trouble. He just did not want to cause trouble for Su Wen.

“If I cannot defeat him, I can still escape.”

Okay, this sounded more reliable.

Unfortunately, Su Wen did not intend to do as he said. He only spoke in an indifferent tone, “There’s no need. In the capital, strength is not necessarily better than authority…”

Just as he finished speaking, the carriage suddenly stopped.

A person had appeared in front of the carriage. This person was tall, and his face was covered. He held a spear in his hand.

Chu He and Zhao Jin stood up at the same time. Zhao Jin said in a low voice, “Young Master, you leave first. You won’t be able to help in a battle of this level!”

Su Wen stuck his head out and looked at the masked man.

“Yao Gu!?”

Even though his face was covered, Su Wen could still roughly recognize him.

Su Wen was speechless. Was this guy crazy?

Did he think that others would not recognize him if he was masked?

However, he also understood Yao Gu’s thoughts. If Yao Gu wanted to kill Chu He, this matter would definitely involve Su Wen.

Even Yao Gu knew that even if he chose to assassinate Chu He, Su Wen would still come to the conclusion that he was the murderer!

Hence, he had no intention of hiding anything! He wanted to kill Su Wen as well!

Thus, he only casually covered his face so that no one could see his real face. Even if Su Wen died, who could say that he was the murderer?

This was Yao Gu’s idea! It was very simple and direct.

He was a person who did not do a lot of scheming and planning.

Violent killing intent swept through the streets.

Su Wen smiled bitterly. This was something he never expected. This fellow was actually so direct!

He came out of the carriage, but not only did he not retreat, Su Wen even took a step forward. Staring at Yao Gu, he shouted, “Yao Gu, do you not know who I am? If you dare harm me, do you think you’ll be able to escape the capital?”

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to leave, but he didn’t dare to. Now that Zhao Jin and Chu He were beside him, if he fled alone, Yao Gu would definitely pursue to silence him. Once he pulled away, it would be more disadvantageous to have no guards. He could only bite the bullet and bluff.

Yao Gu didn’t say a word. He stepped forward, his killing intent growing stronger! This was the first time Su Wen was facing an 8th Grade Earth Rank cultivator with his full strength. He could barely breathe.

Just the pressure alone was enough to make Su Wen very uncomfortable.

“Yao Gu, even if you aren’t afraid of death, you still have to think about your family, your child! I know you have three residences in the capital. If I die, my father will definitely search through and kill them all!”

Su Wen continued to persuade him. But this only made Yao Gu clench his fists.

At this moment, not only did his killing intent not dissipate, it instead became even more vigorous!

His gaze towards Su Wen was filled with murderous intent!

Su Wen’s words had triggered his ferocity instead!

Would Su Wen let him off if he escaped tonight?

At this moment, Zhao Jin realized that something was wrong. He suddenly stepped forward and shouted, “Chu He! Protect the Young Master!”

In an instant, Zhao Jin crushed a fake tooth in his mouth and swallowed a small blue pill.

“Huuu!”

A violent Qi wave scattered in all directions.

The muscles on Zhao Jin’s body swelled up rapidly. He grew a few sizes bigger, and under the gazes of everyone, he suddenly slapped his wrist!

A flare shot up from within his sleeve!

Zhao Jin looked at Yao Gu and sneered, “You only have fifteen minutes before reinforcements arrive!”

The 6th Grade Earth Rank Zhao Jin actually brazenly met Yao Gu head-on! It was just that the aura on his body at this time was already not much weaker than Yao Gu’s!

By the side, Chu He was dumbfounded. He hadn’t expected Zhao Jin to make such a move!

How many backups did this guy have up his sleeve?
