Chapter 26: Outsmarting smartness
Its night time and we are at the enemy base right now
The scene here is quite a happy and joyous one and no one could say that these soldiers will be putting their life on the line in tomorrow's battle
"Soldier, after tomorrows battle, let's go home okay!!!" a man, probably general, said to his soldiers making sure that his soldiers moral are up
But they all don't know that they are not the only one who is in this plain dry land
There are various shadows that are approaching them while staying low and all of them had worn black clothes around them making it harder to notice them
Who are they?
They are '5 Shadows'
"You brought the herbs?"
"yes, I have"
"Assassin team, be on your guard and make sure that those who are left alive are dead, especially their general"
"Don't worry"
"We will attack at midnight. For now, all team shall stay flat on the ground"
Mao Xue and XuHai are the only ones that have come in this attack, as the rest are in their places maintaining things
Behind them are 100 men and females in the team. All of them have crossbows swords with the, as for assassins/females, they have poisons and daggers
The herb they are talking about is a special type of herb that is used to make people fall asleep when burned or used in liquid items when crushed
At midnight, when the night is full and various men have fallen asleep
Mao Xue and Xuhai begin their attack
They first burned the herb a little so it won't attract any attention and then waved the smoke into the enemy direction
"ouaaaa… why am I feeling so sleepy" a guard/soldier on duty said as he looked at the sky
Soon, he and many other people started falling asleep
"Let's go" Mao Xue said to his men and then begins the show of blood
At Hao Tai's mansion-
*knock-Knock*
*knock-Knock*
*knock-Knock*
Someone is really trying hard to break the door or trying bets to wake the person inside the room wake up
"Little brother… Little brother…" Hao Tai called HaoJiazhi as she kept on knocking on the door
Finally, Hao Jiazhi opened the door and asked the reason for this late-night visit but to his surprise, Hao Tai is not alone but she also has a female soldier by her side
"Bai Hong came straight from the border and she told me that a fight broke in the enemy army and a few men's killed the whole army
Was it you who did this?" Hao Tai asked Hao Jiazhi
Hao Jiazhi gave a smile and said "Nope, how can I? I was sleeping all day here.
But, now that the enemy is done… this province is safe"
Bai Hong didn't smile at this as she could clearly tell from Hao Jiazhi's expression that it was him
It's not like she is angry at him but rather she wants to know why he doesn't want to take credit for it
"Little brother, if you are the one behind that attack then I am really thankful for helping me but this could make things really difficult as the Liaohua Kingdom won't tolerate it
Hao Jiazhi gave smile and said "Sister, I told you didn't I…
I am not the one behind that attack
I did nothing, but now that this problem is done… I hope you could help me in something (referring to his deal)"
Hao Tai didn't push her words on him anymore and said "Ok, let's talk in the morning then… Sorry for disturbing you"
Hao Tai bid her words and was about to leave when HaoJiazhi said something to her
He said "Big sister, let me give you a piece of advice… Don't believe in people around you as there are not many who are really loyal to you… Good night"
His sudden word made Hao Tai all confused but soon she and Bai Hong understood what he meant, only pure stupid people won't understand
The reason for this sudden advice is due to the keen senses of Hao Jiazhi
In the past few days, he had noticed some change in servants face, as new people came to work here in place of someone else and these new people are taking some good amount of interest in him
Especially when he is sending his eagle and crow away
. . .
At the Dongping Kingdom-
"A letter from my friend him..." Lu Long said as he looks at a scroll
He opens it and then gives a wide smile
"What happened, my lord? something good?" His attendant, XuYijun, asked as he puts a cup of tea on the table
With a smile, Lu Long said, "4th prince wants to establish his business relationship with me and needs help in opening his own store in the capital city.
I should help him, right?"
"yes, my lord" Xi Yijun said with a smile
Lu Long is fighting with his brother for the throne of this kingdom.
Though there are only 2 heirs, still both of them excel in their own field and both of them are giving each other a hard fight. Both of them have the highest chances of getting the throne
So, if Lu Long is able to somehow subdue HaoJiazhi the son of Song Xia, the women who hold the economy of Tengyuan Kingdom
Then, his chance of getting the throne will become 100%, as he will be bringing a golden parrot to his kingdom
Or that's what he thinks as he is laughing like an idiot villain
After all, it's not just him who knows that he knows what the other one not knows
In truth, both of them know about each other
(Damn I am getting confused now)
Lu Long thinks that he can outsmart the smartness of Hao Jiazhi as he knows his true self but in truth, Hao Jiazhi has long outsmarted his out smartness with his great smartness
(Now my brain is shutting down due to this out smartness)
How did Hao Jiazhi outsmarted Lu Long before they confront each other?
Know it in the next chapter
