On the mountain road outside Sanhe County.

A man and a horse were heading towards Sanhe County at a fast speed.

The soldiers guarding the city seemed to have become accustomed to strange things recently. When they saw the visitor flashing his token from a distance, they all got out of the way, and the visitor rushed straight in.

He ran all the way and didn't stop until he reached the yamen gate.

"grown ups!"

"Urgent message from Yunzhong County!"

The visitor handed a letter to Fan Hanzhong.

Fan Hanzhong has stayed since he returned to Sanhe County with Zhang Bao and the others.

They are most familiar with Zhang Bao from Sanhe County. For them, they can recognize anyone who is a stranger.

So it's quite safe here.

Fan Hanzhong frowned after reading the letter. After thinking for a while, he got up and walked out.

At this time, the Yueyan Restaurant has resumed business.

It is still a bustling and lively scene.

"Ms. sir!"

In the backyard, Zhang Bao was sitting on the patio reading some letters when he heard Su Xiaoyue's voice coming from behind him.

"Why did you come out?"

"It's better to rest more."

Zhang Bao quickly stood up and stepped forward to support Su Xiaoyue.

"It's okay, sir."

"Besides, Dr. Luo also said, let me come out and bask in the sun more."

Su Xiaoyue smiled and sat down next to Zhang Bao obediently.

After Luo Mu's treatment last time, Su Xiaoyue has gradually improved, but her body is very weak and she may need to rest for a long time.

Although the disease has recovered, there are many scars left on Zhang Bao's body and Su Xiaoyue's back.

"What happened recently?"

Su Xiaoyue looked at the letter in Zhang Bao's hand and asked.

"Yes, our state shepherd has been moving very quickly recently."

"I'm afraid he has already made some assumptions. This is a dangerous person. Maybe he shouldn't have been allowed to leave like this."

Zhang Bao said with some annoyance.

"Um……"

Su Xiaoyue responded lightly on the side.

During this period, Zhang Bao was almost inseparable. As long as Su Xiaoyue was in good condition, Zhang Bao would keep talking to her, telling her about their trip to Liaozhou, Fan Hanzhong, the Women's Chopper Brigade, and the Evian Tribe.

Talk about various experiences along the way.

It was as if he wanted to make up for all the things he had not said to Su Xiaoyue before.

Only when you have lost can you understand how precious it is.

"Master Zhang!"

"Oh, Miss Xiaoyue is here too. Are you feeling better?"

At this moment, Fan Hanzhong walked in with a letter.

"I've met General Fan, and thanks to the general's concern, I feel much better."

"You guys talk."

When Su Xiaoyue saw Fan Hanzhong coming to see Zhang Bao, she knew something must be going on, so she stood up.

Although Fan Hanzhong is not a state pastor now, Su Xiaoyue still respects Fan Hanzhong, a legendary general.

Zhang Bao stood up and helped Su Xiaoyue into the room, gently closed the door, and then asked Fan Hanzhong to sit down on the chair.

"The news just came from Yunzhong County, there were several assassinations there, and they were eradicated, very cleanly."

"In addition, Xie Yunsong also found some traces of the previous messenger, which is consistent with my previous guess."

Fan Hanzhong handed over the letter in his hand.

Previously, although Fan Hanzhong personally came forward to inform various counties about Zhang Bao's news, several county governments had already received information about Zhang Bao's situation in advance before the news from their side came through.

That's why we arrived in time in such a short period of time.

What's more, Fang Fu from Beihai County also received the news.

When Fan Hanzhong heard about this, he became suspicious.

Coupled with the reminder they received last time about the Zheng family, it was obvious that someone behind the scenes was paying close attention to their actions in Hezhou.

In other words, paying attention to Zhang Bao's every move.

Fan Hanzhong is not sure where the force hidden behind it comes from.

Is it Da Sima?

Or someone from the imperial court?

Or some force?

In short, no matter what, they must have very strong intelligence capabilities and sphere of influence.

"Let's put the matter of the force behind it aside for now. As of now, it seems that it has no ill intentions toward us."

"It's your replacement who moves very quickly."

"I'm worried that after such a long time, he has guessed something and even obtained some information. After all, on the surface, he is still the state pastor of Hezhou, so he has great power."

"It's not impossible to have some interactions with Fu Mingli as a state pastor."

Zhang Bao said calmly.

"But if he knew that Zhu Yue was dead, there was no need to eliminate Zhu Yue's secret forces, he could just use them. Why did he take such a trick?"

Fan Hanzhong was a little confused.

"You think too highly of him."

"Do you really think that he can have such a mind and city as you?"

"A person like him would rather not have any threats."

Zhang Bao smiled.

Fan Hanzhong was stunned for a while, then nodded with a wry smile.

In the past, it was with Zhu Yue's guidance from behind that they had an overwhelming advantage. Now that Zhu Yue has died, they have lost their greatest support, and these people have no rules for doing things.

"No, if you put it like that, wouldn't the two of us be..."

Fan Hanzhong looked at Zhang Bao.

If the impostor really knew that Zhu Yue was dead, he would definitely choose to kill Fan Hanzhong and Zhang Bao as soon as possible.

As long as they are killed, the impostor will transform into a real Zhou Mu.

"Yes, I guess if he reacts, we will be the first ones to attack."

Zhang Bao also smiled.

He won't be afraid. After all, even Zhu Yue was killed. How can a mere fake be so powerful?

"But speaking of it, the key to this matter still lies with you. At that time, you yourself were caught by Zhu Yue in a hurry. You must have a lot of secret strength that you haven't shown yet, right?

"It's actually much cheaper now."

Zhang Bao said to Fan Hanzhong.

"It does exist, and judging from the recent assassinations, I'm afraid it has indeed been used."

"Zhu Yue is a man with deep knowledge in the city. He must have found out some of my details before, but he cannot use these things due to his status. He may have made arrangements for it long ago."

Fan Hanzhong sighed.

A genuine state pastor was replaced and suppressed by an impostor at every turn. This kind of frustration was extremely rare.

"In the past few days, I have thought of a way, maybe I can let that impostor use some spare power."
