Yuan Chongshang showed no mercy. Chu Huan wanted to stop this knife, but it was too late. The light of the knife flashed by, and the third lady was cut out from her forehead to her chest.

Yuan Chongshang was a brave general, and he used his sword to be cruel. The third lady's eyes, which were originally like autumn water, were dull at this moment, but there was no look of horror on her face.

"Tianmen...Tianmen Taoist disciples can... enjoy eternal life..." The third lady's body shaking and finally fell to the ground.

Yuan Chongshang was gasping for breath, looking at the third lady who was motionless in the pool of blood, a complex look flashed through his eyes. He slowly put away his knife, turned his head, and saw Chu Huan looking at him, saying in a deep voice: "Mr. Chu, you saved my life again today!"

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "Of course, the Governor would not think of the three husbands... Well, I didn't expect that she would still have the intention to murder at this time. After all, you...!" After all, he didn't say it.

A couple has a hundred days of kindness. Although the third wife is a disciple of Tianmen, she finally serves Yuan Chongshang for several years. Yuan Chongshang is also very fond of her. At this time, she killed the third wife with her own hands, and Chu Huan can understand Yuan Chongshang's mood at this time.

Yuan Chongshang was silent for a moment and finally said, "Mr. Chu, you have finally come out. The current situation in Anyi, you...!"

Chu Huan nodded and said, "Xuanyuan Shengcai has already said something."

"Huang Zhigui has died in Lihua Valley." Yuan Chongshang said: "Huang Tianyi has also been arrested in Taiyuan. I have sent someone to take good care of him and just wait for Lord Chu to come out to deal with it. But...!"

"What?"

"The one who caught Huang Tianyi was Linghu Zhong of Yang Weiwu Pavilion." Yuan Chongshang frowned and said, "Mr. Chu, you told me before that there will be a surprise weapon in Yusuohu Lake. Although Gui Fang is all the way, is Linghu Zhong also the way?"

Chu Huan smiled and said, "Don't blame the Governor. Linghu Zhong is a big brother from the three sects and all kinds of religions in Taiyuan City. If I explained it to you in advance, I'm afraid you don't trust them."

Yuan Chongshang sighed: "Mr. Chu really dares not do anything. These people...you dare to use them too!"

"Actually, there is no one in this world that cannot be used." Chu Huan said: "As long as you give him enough benefits, you can always let him do something. Linghu Zhong has a bad background, but this person attaches great importance to power, and there are really many outlaws under his command. I have promised that as long as Linghu Zhong makes contributions, he can ask the court to give him a half position as a reward. As long as the people under his command survive, each person will be rewarded with 300 taels of silver, and those who die in battle will be 500 taels of pension...!"

Yuan Chongshang nodded and said, "Yesterday, Linghu Zhong had already come to the Governor's Office to look for Lord Chu. I saw him. This time, Linghu Zhong brought a total of 147 people, burned the Huang family fleet, and killed Liyu Island. According to what he said, more than 40 people died. He has handed over the list of these people to me, but I don't know much about this in advance, so I have to wait for Lord Chu to come back to deal with it."

Chu Huan said: "This time, he was able to capture Yusuohu Lake in one fell swoop and capture Huang Tianyi, Linghu Zhong and his men made great contributions."

Yuan Chongshang nodded and said, "Actually, the bounty and pension silver are only 50,000 or 60,000 taels of silver, not a large amount..." He smiled coldly and said, "Huang Tianyi might not have expected that Lord Chu would just spend tens of thousands of taels of silver to take him." He paused and said, "If Linghu Zhong said nothing, the Ministry of Revenue could still take out these tens of thousands of taels of silver."

Chu Huan shook his head and smiled, "That's not necessary. I will draft a memorial soon. For specific matters, I will ask the court. At that time, I will raise the tens of thousands of taels of silver from the seized spoils of the Huang family."

Yuan Chongshang nodded and frowned again, "Mr. Chu, Linghu Zhong's matter is not difficult to deal with, but... the Gui Fangren seems to be difficult to pass on."

"oh?"

"After the Guifang people surrounded and suppressed the Huang family army, they had retreated to the Daqimeng Mountains. After all, they had military achievements, so the Ministry of Revenue Department had sent some food and grass for them." Yuan Chongshang said thoughtfully: "But as far as this governor knows, their requirements seem not simple..."

Chu Huan said: "I also want to report this matter to the Ming court, but the Governor should also be clear that the Guifang people can help the government to suppress the rebellion of the Huang family, which is naturally for their own survival. It is already commendable that they did not collude with the Huang family. They can also help the imperial court to wipe out the Huang family, which is not very rewarding!"

Yuan Chongshang sighed, "This matter is naturally clear." After a pause, he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, "By the way, Lord Chu, the ghost master of the ghost side is now in Taiyuan City. I have arranged them in the inn. The ghost master claimed to see Lord Chu, but Lord Chu has disappeared in the past few days, so he has not given any news there...!"

"I will go back and see him." Chu Huan knew that the Ghost Lord must have been sent back by Luo Du. When he thought of Luo Du following the agreement and protecting the Ghost Lord's completeness, a warm feeling arose in Chu Huan's heart, "Where is the side of Tingxiang Xiaoxie..."

"It has been searched, and all the people inside have been imprisoned." Yuan Chongshang's expression became cold, "That Wu Waer has also been imprisoned in death row. Xuanwu Qianhu has personally interrogated it, but it seems that no result has been found. According to Xuanwu Qianhu's intention, Huang Tianyi, Wu Waer and others will take them back to the capital and be dealt with by the emperor!"

Chu Huan thought for a while and said, "Most of the people who are Tingxiang Xiaoxie are innocent..." He pondered slightly, "Governor General, many of them are good women who are forced to do so. If there is no problem, I think it's better to give each of them some money and let them go home."

Yuan Chongshang immediately said, "It depends on Lord Chu's ruling." He glanced at the third wife lying in a pool of blood, his eyes twitched slightly, and finally asked, "Master Chu, do you think... she is really General Chunmu?"

Chu Huan had already put away the blood-drinking knife, and also glanced at the corpse, saying, "What is the mystery of the Tianmen Dao? We are not completely clear at the moment... If she is General Chunmu...!" He smiled indifferently and said, "Maybe it is true, maybe it is fake, maybe it is just to disturb the Governor's mind, so he said this."

"Disturb my mind?"

Chu Huan thoughtfully said: "She used to perform illusions on the Governor, and needed to use the medicinal properties contained in almond tea. From this, it can be seen that her illusions are not necessarily very clever. Today she still wants to perform illusions on you, and maybe she is not very sure, so she first made up a lie that General Mu still exists to deceive the adults, so as to disturb the adults' minds... Only when her mind is confused can she have greater confidence in performing illusions on the adults."

Yuan Chongshang frowned and said, "Tianmen Dao is really a group of demons. Prince Li is good at dead wood art, and she uses illusion...!" He looked at Chu Huan, "Master Chu, this governor is also considered a person who has seen the world, but he has never seen such a magic art before, but I wonder if you have seen it?"

Chu Huan shook her head and said, "I have heard of it, but I have never seen it." Asked Yuan Chongshang: "Governor, do you still remember how did you feel when she used the illusion?"

"Ben Du remembers that her eyes are like magic, and I can't move them away." Yuan Chongshang said slowly: "It's like in a sleep, knowing what's going on, but the body cannot be controlled by itself..."

Chu Huan narrowed his eyes.

There is no doubt that the strange people and strange people that Gusa said to her at the beginning did exist. At least this third lady can really use her will to manipulate others.

But the third lady's illusion was obviously not very powerful.

She wanted to use illusions on Yuan Chongshang, but she still needed the cooperation of medicine. This shows that although she has incredible skills, she could not control anyone as she wished.

At Zhongyi Villa, Chu Huan used a chaotic sound to break up the psychedelic song of the young master in the blue shirt. Today, it was done in the same way, hoping to use the noise to disrupt the third wife's control over Yuan Chongshang.

Chu Huan just gave up and didn't expect that it would be so smooth that he could easily crack his illusion.

It is only necessary to use noise to break the illusion of the Third Lady, which shows that the third Lady's unique skill actually has many weaknesses.

"Governor, since she is a member of the Tianmen Dao, she doesn't know if she has any important letters or other tokens?" Chu Huan suddenly thought of the small stones she got from Xiao Chen and others. Since the third lady is an extremely important figure in the Tianmen Dao, she must have that kind of stone.

After all, this is a woman. Chu Huan also wants to know if she has a tattoo of "卍" on her chest, but it is inconvenient after all. At this time, she can only see if there is anything on the third lady.

Yuan Chongshang hesitated for a moment, finally went forward, searched carefully, found a few debris, put them on the ground, checked them, shook his head and said, "There is no letter."

Chu Huan was already quite disappointed.

Chu Huan didn't know if the third lady was not qualified to have that kind of stone or did not carry the stone on her body.

Yuan Chongshang was not in a good mood. He did not let many people know about the third wife's affairs, but he was just secretly placed under house arrest. Now that the third wife was killed by himself, he also wanted to deal with the corpse secretly.

The dignified governor, the woman around him turned out to be a spy from the Tianmen Dao. If this matter was really spread everywhere, it would certainly be a huge blow to Yuan Chongshang's prestige.

The two went out and came to the yard. The weather was still extremely cold. Chu Huan stood in the yard, glanced at Yuan Chongshang, and finally said, "Governor Yuan, do you know your guilt?"

Yuan Chongshang was not surprised, but just smiled bitterly, "Mr. Chu, I know I have a serious crime. On that day, the heads of two hundred households of the Shenyi Guard were sent to the yamen. I knew that the big thing was not good, but I had to report this matter to the saint... I will not hide it from Lord Chu, I thought about that whole night and wanted to report it to the truth, but...!" He sighed, "If I report to the saint, the saint had secretly seen me before the killing of the Shenyi Guard, how could the saint forgive me?"

"The Lord trusts you very much, but what you do has failed the Lord's trust." Chu Huan said slowly: "Governor, how should I write this memorial?"

Yuan Chongshang smiled bitterly and said, "This matter cannot implicate Lord Chu. Now, we can't make mistakes again and again. Fortunately, General Mu was eliminated, Tianmen Dao suffered heavy damage in Anyi, and Huang Tianyi has also been arrested and brought to justice... What the governor should have done has been done, so I will write a memorial and report the whole story to the emperor, only asking the emperor to punish him!"

Chu Huan sighed and said, "Governor Yuan, although you are at fault, how can I not see your loyalty to the Lord?" After thinking about it, he finally said, "The memorial must be submitted, but I will try my best to excuse the Governor, conquer Yusuohu and discover General Mu's conspiracy. I will count these merits on you, hoping to use this to atone for the Lord and let the Lord be lighter!"

Yuan Chongshang was stunned.

In just a moment, his eyes showed gratitude, and the corners of his eyes twitched. He grabbed Chu Huan's arm, opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he sighed and said, "Master Chu, there are mostly intrigues in the officialdom, fearing that his merits will be stolen by others. Lord Chu, you...!" He sighed: "Master Chu, no matter whether the emperor forgives or not, I, Yuan, owe you a life!"—
