Chapter 17: 17

Zhou Zhenrong was not in Qiongnan City, but in the Zhenbei Army barrack, which was not far from Qiongnan City.

Zhou Jingshan’s funeral is about to be held, and the Zhenbei Army has been unstable in the past few days.

Some people are busy fighting for power and profits, some people want to avenge Zhou Jingshan by attacking the army, and some people suspect that there is a traitor in the army…

Everyone was guarding against each other, making a mess.

In such chaos, Zhou Zhenrong became the target of public criticism.

He is Zhou Jingshan’s adopted son. Zhou Jingshan is missing, those who have hatred with Zhou Jingshan will now target him.

He is like Zhou Jingshan’s bodyguard. Now that Zhou Jingshan is missing, those who are friends with Zhou Jingshan also suspect him.

Today, someone attacked Zhou Zhenrong again: “Zhou Zhenrong, General Zhou raised you. His grace is as heavy as the mountain. You are so great that you didn’t even look for General Zhou after his disappearance, and you even helped the bastard Sun Shichen!”

The one who attacked Zhou Zhenrong was an old man in the Zhenbei Army, whose name was Yan Heli. He came to the border with Zhou Jingshan and began to follow Zhou Jingshan after.

As for the Sun Shichen he said, he was also an old man in the Zhenbei Army. In the early years, he even had the same official position as Su Xingyin, and was even higher than Zhou Jingshan.

But Zhou Jingshan has made a lot of contributions, and there’s also support from the Zhou family in the capital behind him. No one can take his credit…Five years ago, Zhou Jingshan’s official position became higher than Sun Shichen.

Since Zhou Jingshan disappeared, Sun Shichen began to make various small moves, which made Zhou Jingshan’s people very dissatisfied with him.

However, Zhou Zhenrong, who was cultivated by Zhou Jingshan as his heir, retreated step by step under Sun Shichen’s force.

Yan Heli is not young. He was injured in the early years and left many sequelae. He hasn’t taken charge in recent years.

However, recently, he watched some people around him go to Sun Shichen for their future…He couldn’t sit still and came to find Zhou Zhenrong.

Although after Zhou Jingshan is gone, the court will be the one who decides who will be the commander-in-chief of the Zhenbei Army in the end, but the court can’t decide who the soldiers under their command will listen to!

Before Zhou Jingshan came to the border gate, how many officials were sent by the imperial court, who had no right to have official positions here?

If Zhou Jingshan’s people were all taken by Sun Shichen…He doesn’t know, in the future, what the Zhenbei Army will look like?

And…Zhou Jingshan might still be alive!

Zhou Zhenrong lowered his eyelids to cover his complicated gazes: “General Yan, I sent a lot of people to find my foster father, but he just couldn’t be found.”

“What about Sun Shichen? This guy has been provoking things all day, why don’t you take care of it?” Yan Heli asked.

“General Yan, General Sun is higher than me!” Zhou Zhenrong said.

As they were talking, Zhou Ping, another adopted son of Zhou Jingshan, came in from outside: “General Yan, don’t count on Zhou Zhenrong. After foster father disappeared, there were many people missing from the army…I think he may have something to do with foster father’s disappearance!”

“Zhou Ping, don’t talk nonsense!” Zhou Zhenrong said angrily.

Zhou Ping said: “I’m not talking nonsense! Very few people know about foster father’s whereabouts, so how can the Rong people know? They sent so many soldiers and horses to kill him…Zhou Zhenrong, did you betray foster father?”

“Zhou Ping, foster father has always valued me, what reason do I have to betray my foster father? I think you did this and want to blame me!” Zhou Zhenrong said.

The quarrel here has attracted many people from Zhou Jingshan’s people. Everyone has their own ideas, and the more they quarrel, the worse they become.

Among them, some suspected Zhou Zhenrong, but others felt that Zhou Zhenrong had no reason to betray Zhou Jingshan.

In the end, it was Sun Shichen who came to stop the fight: “Everyone, stop arguing…I heard that the people sent by General Su to Mount Qiong to find General Zhou have returned, they may have brought news of General Zhou, we should send someone to ask about it, right?”

Sun Shichen smiled and looked very gentle. When someone heard his words, they wanted to go to Su Moxiu to ask clearly while some people said angrily, “Stop your fake kindness.”

Sun Shichen was targeted but he was not angry at all: “When did I pretend to be kind? I have great respect for General Zhou, and I sincerely hope that General Zhou can come back.”

When Yan Heli and others heard Sun Shichen’s words, their faces all showed their doubt. They didn’t believe him at all.

Sun Shichen said: “Of course, if General Zhou had suffered misfortune…I would want to go up a rank, isn’t this normal?”

Sun Shichen was very calm, which made Yan Heli and the others stunned, but they still said: “General Zhou will not suffer misfortune!”

Sun Shichen said: “Then what are you worried about? General Zhou’s military glory is outstanding, when he comes back, what I am doing now will be useless!”

Sun Shichen didn’t hide his thoughts at all, but he made Yan Heli and the others less disgusted toward him.

When Zhou Jingshan first disappeared, Sun Shichen didn’t actually make any small moves. It was only recently when everyone felt that Zhou Jingshan would not be able to come back that he started to win over people everywhere.

They couldn’t stand it emotionally, but if they looked at it rationally…They couldn’t really say that Sun Shichen did something wrong.

“That’s right, like you, I feel that General Zhou’s disappearance is strange! It is said that General Su’s youngest son is good at solving cases, why don’t we let him come to the Zhenbei Army to investigate!” Sun Shichen said again.

Hearing what Sun Shichen said, Yan Heli was a little moved. He turned to look at Zhou Zhenrong, but saw that Zhou Zhenrong’s expression seemed wrong.

However, it could also be because his eyes were not very clear, because Zhou Zhenrong quickly said firmly, “That’s how it should be!”

Zhou Ping, who doubted Zhou Zhenrong, even said, “It should have been like this!”

Everyone made a decision and really wanted to find Su Xingyin. Suddenly someone came in: “Generals! General Su brought troops and horses here!”

“What is he here for?” These people were puzzled, but before they could go out to check the situation, someone else came to report: “General Su is here!”

Su Xingyin brought five thousand soldiers and horses here, but he did not bring these people into the barracks. The people in the barracks here would not let him bring so many soldiers in.

In the end, he brought in more than 20 of his personal guards, as well as Su Moxiu, Cai An, Zhang Erque, and Yan Jingze.

If he hadn’t seen Yan Jingze, Su Xingyin might have been more cautious and brought more people, but he had seen Yan Jingze.

Zhou Jingshan is still alive, what does he have to fear?!

If those soldiers trained by Zhou Jingshan himself saw Zhou Jingshan and they would still help Zhou Zhenrong…Then Zhou Jingshan would not be worthy of his respect!

Wait, Zhou Jingshan is calling him dad now…

Thinking of this, Su Xingyin felt annoyed. He rushed in, so when the messenger had just passed the news of his arrival, he had already arrived.

“Old Su, why are you here so suddenly?” Sun Shichen greeted him with a smile.

“I’ll kill that little beast Zhou Zhenrong!” Su Xingyin shouted, and charged towards Zhou Zhenrong with the mace in his hand.

Sun Shichen and others were stunned!

Even the personal guard behind Su Xingyin was a little confused.

They knew that Su Xingyin was short-tempered, but as soon as he came in, he went forward to smash someone…It’s so rare to see him so angry.

Even Su Moxiu couldn’t react.

Although he thinks Zhou Zhenrong is the culprit, there is no conclusive evidence yet…

There was only Yan Jingze, who calmly hid behind the others, admired Su Xingyin’s heroic appearance.

When Su Xingyin went to order his 5,000 men before, he used the excuse of being too cold to ask Su Moxiu to find him a helmet, and then Su Moxiu got a personal guard uniform and let him wear it with the helmet.

Su Moxiu did this so that Yan Jingze could be less conspicuous and avoid danger – if something really happened, others would definitely attack people in their team who don’t have much strength at first glance, such as Yan Jingze and Cai An.

But if Yan Jingze wore the personal guard clothes and mixed in with the crowd, he wouldn’t be the primary target anymore.

Not to mention…The guards were raised by them at a high cost. The guards’ clothes are also very valuable. Not only is the helmet strong, the clothes were still sewn with many armored pieces. Yan Jingze will be safe wearing it.

So at this moment, Yan Jingze, who was dressed as a guard, hid in the crowd with his neck shrunk. No one paid any attention to him.

Everyone is looking at Su Xingyin!

Su Xingyin moved very quickly and swung the mace at Zhou Zhenrong, but unfortunately Zhou Zhenrong escaped…He chased after him without hesitation and continued to smash.

Su Xingyin was full of anger. Now that he finally saw the ‘culprit’, of course he wanted to vent!

The most important thing is… He has determined that Zhou Zhenrong is the one who betrayed Zhou Jingshan!

Knowing that he was coming to trouble Zhou Zhenrong, Zhou Jingshan not only didn’t stop him, but also looked as if he was watching a good show…There must be a problem with Zhou Zhenrong!
