    "Zhao Yong, what's going on? Why were you arrested as spies? Did you offend someone?" Xue Bin asked, sitting in the carriage, looking at Zhao Yong, who looked slightly better.

    "Commander, we still haven't figured out what happened. After we said goodbye to the second young master, we hurried to the capital. The journey of more than ten days made us very irritable. That's why we planned to  Let's take a rest in this county town, but what I didn't expect is"

    Zhao Yong frowned tightly after listening to Xue Bin's words, and said with a thoughtful expression on his face.  Until now, Zhao Yong still doesn't know why he and others were arrested and why they became spies.

    "When we just approached Bada City, we saw the Lord of Bada leading a group of warriors standing at the gate of the city. We didn't pay attention at the time. In addition, we were very tired, so we walked towards the city."

    "But before we entered, the city lord of Bada County came over and asked us if we were members of the Hidden Killers who were guarding the family. We didn't care at the time, so we told him that we were members of the Hidden Killers."

    "As a result, the city lord became even more respectful to us, and ordered his warriors to come over with a jar of good wine, saying that it was a celebration wine prepared for us, and we must drink it."

    "We thought about it and saw that the city lord was very respectful to us, so we each drank a big bowl. As soon as we drank it, we realized something was wrong. All of a sudden, we felt that our fighting spirit seemed to have lost contact."

    "The fighting spirit is gone!" Xue Bin and Pang Lin were shocked when they heard Ding Qi say this.  Dou Qi Powder is a drug that suppresses Dou Qi. There are very few medicinal materials that ordinary people do not have.

    Only those families with rich heritage or powerful individuals own it.  In the empire, Dou Qi Powder is a drug that is strictly prohibited from being sold. I didn¡¯t expect that Bada City Lord actually owned it and dared to use it.

    "Yes, Commander, Second Young Master. At that time, we also realized that we and others had been hit by Dou Qi. Zhao Yong asked the city lord what was going on, but the city lord's face suddenly changed and ordered his warriors to attack us.  To kill." When Ding Qi said this, his face was full of anger.

    "We are very angry in our hearts, but what can we do if we are hit by Dou Qi powder? If we can't raise our Dou Qi, we are no match for those sixth-level warriors. Fortunately, Ding Qi's physical strength is very strong, and he can hold his own double hammers.  We smashed a few to death, but we were eventually arrested. You, the commander, will all know what happens next." Zhao Yong said.

    Listening to Zhao Yong and Ding Qi's narration, Xue Bin and Pang Lin looked at each other, both seeing worry in each other's eyes.  Zhao Yong and Ding Qi looked at the commander and the second young master, and they were a little anxious.

    "We really didn't care at the time. If we had paid more attention, what happened today wouldn't have happened. I'm sorry, Commander, for causing you trouble. If you punish us, we are willing to accept the punishment."

    "It is certain that you will be punished. You all know the rules of hidden killing very well. After you return to the hidden killing headquarters, go and receive the punishment. But you still don't want to make this matter public. Do you understand?"

    Xue Bin looked at Zhao Yong and said calmly.  Although Zhao Yong and the others could not be blamed for this incident, as the captain of the hidden killer and an eighth-level warrior, they still had to be punished to avoid making the same mistake next time.  Making a mistake once is enough. If you make many mistakes, it is not a mistake, but a habit.

    "I understand, Commander, we will accept the punishment." Zhao Yong and Ding Qi said respectfully.  Xue Bin nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

    All of a sudden, the whole carriage calmed down.  Pang Lin frowned deeply, while Lengqing and Aina watched from the side, and Zhao Yong and Ding Qi did not speak.

    Xue Bin stroked the purple lightning beside him with one hand, and kept rubbing his forehead with the other hand.  I was very confused. Zhao Yong and the others were arrested as spies. It must have been arranged in advance.

    But what is worth thinking about is who is the mastermind behind this matter. From the news obtained in Bada County, the most likely ones are the emperor and the prince.

    ¡°Whether it¡¯s them or not, Xue Bin and the others can¡¯t do research now.  The prince has always had a grudge against the Zhan family, and one can imagine why he took action.  It's nothing more than hatred for the honor the Zhan family is getting now.

    The reason why the emperor took action is also very clear. The Zhan family and other five families have great power in the empire and have threatened his imperial rule.  Coupled with the fact that they are now named the guardian family by their ancestors, their reputation is rising even more.

    Although both parties can explain it clearly, there is something strange about Xue Bin.  Whether it is the prince or the emperor, they should know very well about the subordinates of the five families including the Zhan family.The consequences of ? are so serious that they should not take action.

    In addition to the two of them, there is another person behind the scenes who is worth thinking about.  That is the prime minister of the empire, Li Qiang.  In the empire, he and the Zhan family and other five families were enemies that could never be reconciled.

    I don¡¯t know how many people were killed or injured due to the dispute between the two, but it can be said that they have eternal hatred.  As long as both parties exist, their battle will continue.

    After thinking hard, Xue Bin never got a reasonable answer.  While Xue Bin was thinking, the carriage arrived at the capital in the afternoon. As soon as they entered the city gate, Zhao Yong and the other five left to go back to the Hidden Killing Headquarters.

    After saying goodbye to everyone, Lengqing went to Canaan College, while Aina returned to her family to report that she was safe.

    Xue Bin and Pang Lin walked side by side towards the Zhan Family Mansion. Neither of them spoke a word along the way. They looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar streets around them. They soon arrived at the Zhan Family Mansion.

    "Second Young Master, Lord Commander, you are finally back. Since the master of the house came back, there seems to be something wrong. He often stays in the study and drinks. We don't know what to do."

    Just when Xue Bin and Pang Lin walked to the door, the guard at the door grabbed his lion beast, bent down to salute, and said to them anxiously.

    "Oh, I understand. Do you know there is anyone else in the study besides grandpa?" Pang Lin nodded slightly and asked softly to the doorman.

    "Reporting to the Second Young Master, there is no one else in the study except the master." The guard looked at Pang Lin and said respectfully.

    Although there were two teenagers standing in front of them, the guard knew how strong these two teenagers were. Even compared to himself, they were both stronger.

    "Grandpa is the only one? Do you know if other family heads who protect the family have been here since grandpa came back?" Pang Lin sounded very strange. The current situation is very turbulent. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be.

    "No, since the head of the family came back from the World of Warcraft battlefield and went to the palace to report the war to the emperor, he has never left the house again. As for the other heads of the house, they have never been here."

    "Then" Pang Lin still wanted to ask questions, but Xue Bin gently pulled him and motioned him to look towards a street entrance on their right. Pang Lin glanced at it with confusion, and his face changed slightly.

    I saw a small street stall at the entrance of a street only 20 meters away from them.  The man who set up the street stall was a middle-aged man with a long beard. Although he acted very naturally, if you look carefully, you can see that his eyes have never left the door of the Zhan family's house.

    In addition to this reason, what is even more suspicious is how come there are street stalls here?  This is the residential area where the imperial nobles live. How could the nobles here allow someone to shout and set up a stall in front of their homes?

    All of the above are enough to show that this person is very suspicious.  Xue Bin and Pang Lin looked at each other, the worry and solemnity in their eyes even more intense.  It seems that things are far beyond their expectations.

    "Why are there people setting up stalls there? Don't you just care?" Pang Lin hid the color in his eyes, looked at the guard coldly, and scolded in a low voice.

    "Second Young Master, the head of the family has said that if that person sets up a stall here, as long as he is not within ten meters of the door, we don't have to worry about it and let him go." The guard glanced at the stall owner and said respectfully.

    "Oh, I got it, then you must keep a close eye on them and never insult the Zhan family's prestige." Pang Lin nodded, and walked in side by side with Xue Bin.
