Chen Ba couldn't believe that Deng Mu's trick was so unfathomable that he could play with him in the palm of his hand. However, Su Lu's words "what if" planted the seeds of doubt in his heart.

Now it seems that Su Lu's proposal is undoubtedly the best choice under the current situation.

If the fake Chen is safe and sound, it will confirm Su Lu's worries. The Xu Xin in front of him and the Ji Yu handwritten letter he brought are probably all conspiracies carefully planned by Deng Mu.

And if something happened to the fake Chen, and the Wuxi clan really rose up, then Ji Yu's rebellion would become an ironclad fact, and there would be no room for doubt.

After all, no matter how clever Deng Mu's methods were, the number of spies he deployed in the fake Chen would never reach the level of launching a large-scale rebellion.

"Your Majesty, the magic that Ji Yu has mastered is enough to compete with Deng's magic.

If we kill Ji Yu by mistake due to misjudgment, how can we deal with Deng's magic in the future?"

Su Lu tried hard to persuade him, and his words were sincere.

Hearing this, Chen Ba's expression suddenly became solemn.

The murderous intent that had already overwhelmed his mind gradually subsided under his forced suppression.

After a long period of contemplation, Chen Ba took a deep breath and waved his hand:

"First, arrest this person and keep a close watch on Ji Yu. At the same time, send a message to Chen Quan, ordering him to keep a close eye on the movements of the pseudo-Chen. Once someone is found to have launched a rebellion in the name of Wu Xi, he must report to me immediately!"

As soon as this was said, it meant that Chen Ba had accepted Su Lu's proposal.

Su Lu's tense heartstrings finally relaxed. He quickly accepted the order and praised Chen Ba without missing a beat.

Although Wen Tai was unwilling to do so, he did not dare to disobey the order and had to escort Xu Xin away.

Next, all Chen Ba could do was wait.

In the blink of an eye, nine days had passed.

At nightfall that day, Chen Ba finally received Chen Quan's urgent military report.

When he couldn't wait to open the letter and read it, the trace of hope on his face gradually collapsed, replaced by anger and cold murderous intent.

"You can see for yourself."

Chen Ba threw the silk book in his hand fiercely at Su Lu.

Su Lu picked up the silk book tremblingly and read it with uneasiness.

After a moment, he sighed, but said nothing.

That sigh revealed deep disappointment and apology.

It was clearly written in Chen Quan's urgent report that just a few days ago, the Wuxi people in the east of Chendi suddenly launched a rebellion.

Chen Quan has ordered the local garrison to quickly lead the army to quell the rebellion.

Although others think that this is just a rebellion of the Wuxi people, Chen Ba and others know that it is actually Ji Yu's followers pretending to be Wuxi people to launch a rebellion.

The evidence is overwhelming, and Su Lu's last hope for Ji Yu was also shattered by the cruel reality.

While he was deeply disappointed, he was also full of guilt towards Chen Ba.

After all, Ji Yu was founded by him.He had been the one who recommended Ji Yu.

But now the facts have proved Ji Yu's wolfish ambitions, which is undoubtedly a slap in the face to Su Lu. How can he not feel guilty?

"This damned demon! I knew he had bad intentions!

Fortunately, I noticed it early, otherwise I would have been killed by him sooner or later!"

Chen Ba gnashed his teeth and cursed, and then ordered Wen Tai to come and kill Ji Yu.

"Please calm down, my king! Let me personally execute this traitor Ji Yu!"

Su Lu angrily asked for his life. He wanted to avenge his mistakes with his own hands.

Chen Ba understood his intention, so he waved his hand and said:

"Go! You have made a mistake yourself, so you have to solve it yourself.

Make sure you do it quickly."

After receiving the order, Su Lu immediately left the tent and led a group of soldiers to rush angrily to Ji Yu's tent.

When Su Lu rushed into the tent with murderous intent, he saw Ji Yu sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.

"You are such a demon! I trust you so much and recommend you to the king, but you dare to betray the king and collude with Deng the thief!"

Su Lu drew his sword and pointed it at Ji Yu and cursed.

Ji Yu slowly opened his eyes and sighed:

"Deng Mu is indeed as famous as he is, and he is very wise...

King Chen is not his opponent after all..." (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

"You still dare to quibble at this point!"

Su Lu threw the letter he had secretly sent to Deng Mu on the table.

However, Ji Yu did not even look at it, and said disdainfully:

"It's just a letter. Anyone who is good at calligraphy can copy my handwriting."

"What about your apprentice Xu Xin?

He has admitted that he followed your orders to collude with Deng the thief!"

Su Lu asked sharply.

"Alas, people die for money and birds die for food.

Xu Xin is an ordinary man without wisdom after all, so it is understandable that he is tempted by money."

Ji Yu sighed with regret, as if he was not surprised by his apprentice's betrayal.

"And Wen Tai overheard the conversation between your messenger and Deng Mu in the enemy camp. How do you explain this?"

Su Lu stepped closer and asked sharply, the tip of the sword in his hand was close to Ji Yu's throat.

"And the fact that you promised Deng Mu to incite believers in the pseudo-Chen and pretend to be Wuxi people to launch a rebellion!

Today, news has come from Dachen, confirming that a rebellion by Wuxi people has occurred!

What else do you have to say?"[]

Su Lu's voice was full of anger and murderous intent, and it was obvious that he had turned a deaf ear to any explanation from Ji Yu.

Faced with Su Lu 0.5's relentless pressure and harsh questioning, Ji Yu knew that any further explanation would be futile.

He could only sigh and say:

"It seems that my cultivation is still too shallow, and I actually wanted to go against the head of the Nine.

This is really a self-inflicted punishment, a road to self-destruction..."

After saying this, he raised his headHe turned his head and looked fearlessly into Su Lu's eyes:

"It is God's will that Chen Ba will die and no one can save him. Since I have done what I have done, I will accept the punishment willingly.

Su Lu, do it."

At this moment, he seemed to have put down all his struggles and resistances, and faced the impending death calmly.

At this moment, Su Lu, who was originally murderous, suddenly hesitated. .
