Chapter 205 Shadow Appears

Chapter 205 Shadow Appears
The winter sun rose, and the cold sunlight dappled the rows of houses in the Governor's Mansion, casting shadows.

Shadow put on his clothes and opened the door. A gust of cold wind blew towards him. It seemed to be a little colder today.

As the steward of the Di Mansion, Di Renjie's personal servant, and as "Di Chun", he always has to wake up earlier.

However, Shadow was surprised to find that the atmosphere in the Governor's Mansion was somewhat unusual today. It was much busier than before, with people coming and going.

Shadow felt something was wrong.

Zhang Huan happened to be walking towards him at this time. He quickly reached out to stop Zhang Huan and asked, "Hey, Zhang Huan, what happened? Why are you all so busy?"

Zhang Huan replied, "Don't mention it. It's all because of what happened in the prison yesterday. My lord didn't sleep all night. My lord, just let you go over there."

Shadow blinked, thinking about it, and then responded, "Got it, I'll go right away."

So Zhang Huan turned around and walked slowly forward with his shadow, until he stopped in front of a house.

Shadow was more and more surprised: "Isn't this General Zong's room? The master's room is over there!"

"My lord, you didn't sleep all night yesterday and stayed here. Come on in." After a brief explanation, Zhang Huan pushed the door open and walked in.

Shadow took a deep breath and followed Zhang Huan into the room.

Di Renjie, Zhao Ji, Li Yuanfang, Zeng Tai, and even Ruyan were all in the room, but Quan Shancai was not there.

The first three were quite calm, but the last three had puzzled expressions on their faces.

Shadow bowed respectfully and said in his hoarse voice, "Master, what do you want me to do for you?"

Di Renjie smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, some people haven't arrived yet. It won't be too late to talk about it after everyone arrives."

When these words came out, Di Chun's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, thinking to himself that something was wrong.

Zhao Ji stared at the shadow with a half-smile, while Li Yuanfang's face was serious, and the two of them vaguely locked the shadow in place.

A moment later, Li Lang also came over with Qiu Jing.

Seeing this, Di Renjie nodded with satisfaction and smiled even more brightly, but did not speak.

Qiu Jing looked around at everyone, still a little confused, and couldn't help asking: "Uh, I heard that something happened in the prison last night. The Marshal urgently summoned us this time. Could it be because of this?"

Di Renjie's eyes flickered with a smile, and he nodded and said, "Yes, this is indeed one of the things I want to talk about today."

At this time, Quan Shancai walked in quickly and said, "General, I have arrested all 74 spies from the Right Guard according to the list, and I am here to report."

"Good! Very good!" Di Renjie praised.

As soon as these words were spoken, Yingzi and Qiu Jing were stunned for a moment. The expressions on their faces were complicated and difficult to read, but the expression was not enough to be described as horror.

Especially Qiu Jing, when he caught a glimpse of Song Wuji slowly walking in behind Quan Shancai, he was so shocked that his face turned pale and cold sweat ran down his forehead.

Zhao Ji said with a hint of sarcasm: "You two, are you familiar with this person?"

Qiu Jing swallowed and managed to squeeze out a few words: "Recognize, know him, he... He is General Song from the front camp of the Right Guard."

The shadow suddenly looked up, his eyes flickering, and he inadvertently cast a look at Ruyan with a slightly questioning tone.

Ruyan had a confused expression on her face, as if she was out of the matter and knew nothing.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the room became subtle. Those who understood understood, while those who didn't were confused. Zeng Tai was the one who didn't understand. He looked left and right, not understanding what Di Renjie was up to.

"Master, what is going on?" Zeng Tai was full of questions.

Di Renjie's eyes switched back and forth between the shadow and Qiu Jing, and he slowly told the truth: "Last night, Qiu Jing used the spy he had planted in the prison to drug the prison guards and colluded with Song Wuji to rescue Su Honghui and the officers, and then escaped from prison together."

"However, this is just a plot to silence people. Deputy General Sha has already received orders to ambush near the prison and kill Su Honghui and the officers of the Right Guard."

"However, Cheng Yuan knew that they were going to kill Su Honghui, and when he rushed to the prison, Deputy General Sha had no time to check if there were any survivors, so Song Wuji luckily survived."

Zeng Tai was shocked again: "Traitor? Master, you mean Qiu Jing is the traitor? But, but Wang Xiaojie is the traitor, Qiu Jing is innocent!"

Di Renjie, Zhao Ji and Li Yuanfang couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

"How could General Wang be a traitor? This is just a trick by Qiu Jing and others to confuse right and wrong." Li Yuanfang explained with a smile.

Song Wuji jumped out and pointed out: "Yes, the defeat of Dongxie Shigu was caused by Su Honghui and Qiu Jing."

Zeng Tai's face turned red and white when he heard this. Thinking of his previous inferences, he looked like a clown.

"Dear teacher, I am ashamed..." Zeng Tai apologized to Di Renjie.

Di Renjie smiled and let him go: "Hey~ You have done a good job but nothing wrong. It's just that the opponent this time is too cunning."

Zhao Ji walked towards between Qiu Jing and the shadow and reminded him, "Governor Qiu, why don't you stay away from him now? Have you forgotten what happened to Su Honghui and Deputy General Sha?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Jing suddenly woke up and tried to escape from the shadow.

A cold light flashed in the shadow's eyes, and his hand wanted to move, wanting to press some mechanism.

But suddenly he screamed, fell to the ground, and covered his right hand tightly.

There were many cow-hair steel needles on his right arm, from the palm to the joints and acupoints.

Zhao Ji walked to the side of Shadow, took out a set of shadowless needles from his arms, and said with emotion: "This is a dangerous thing, let me keep it for you."

Zeng Tai, Ruyan, Quan Shancai, and Zhang Huan were all stunned by the scene before them.

Zeng Tai was puzzled: "Master, what is going on? Why would Yuan Fang attack Di Chun? How could Di Chun have the invisible needle?"

Di Renjie's expression turned cold: "He is not Di Chun."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was in an uproar again.

Zhao Ji sneered: "You are the one who killed Deputy General Sha yesterday, right? Now, it's time for us to see your true face!"

He grabbed the skin on the edge of "Di Chun's" face and pulled it down hard.

As everyone exclaimed, a thin, unfamiliar face suddenly appeared under the fake Di Chun.

At this point, Shadow no longer needed to pretend and returned to his original habits and expression.

He looked quite proud, yet somewhat regretful: "I believe that my ability to disguise and imitate is unrivaled in the world. How did you discover me?"
