Chapter 872: 402 Dragon Shadow Guard (Second Update)

```

The matter of Tang Yueshan and the elderly marquis making a far journey to the border pass had been settled.

One belonged to the empress dowager's camp, and the other was the emperor's confidant. Formerly, they were at odds with each other, but ever since the empress dowager hoodwinked them, Tang Yueshan's hatred was thoroughly siphoned away by the true villain behind the scenes, seeking to benefit from their strife.

The empress dowager told Tang Yueshan that the mastermind was the late Consort Jing, and though Consort Jing was dead, she had accomplices, which were those remnants of the previous dynasty hiding in the borderlands.

This time, Tang Yueshan was fully determined to go and slay the enemy.

The elderly marquis had no objections to the arrangement; he and Tang Yueshan, one in the shadows and the other in the open, had clear divisions of labor and did not interfere with each other.
