Chapter 163: Capture

The moment Duan Changmian saw Su Pingbei, his face turned ashen.

He was genuinely afraid of Su Pingbei. Otherwise, he wouldn't have run away dejectedly upon seeing Su Pingbei's waist token before. After learning that Su Pingbei had no relatives or friends in the capital, he came back with his men.

In this circle of top young masters in the capital, who doesn't know that Su Pingbei is domineering

Su Pingbei's most frightening aspect isn't just his arrogance; the key is that he's also intelligent and cunning, capable of using schemes and tactics.

If it weren't for the fact that the General's Mansion had become increasingly low-key in recent years, Zhao Taili's reputation wouldn't be so prominent.

"Su Pingbei, are you going to wade into this muddy water too" Duan Changmian gritted his teeth.

Susan Pingbei pursed her lips.

To be honest, ever since he latched onto the golden thigh and became a legitimate commander of the northern camp of the Imperial Guard, holding real power in his hands, he's lost interest in the petty squabbles between these young masters.

But this matter was ordered by the Jinyiwei with the command of a powerful figure, so Su Pingbei naturally wouldn't refuse.

He walked up to Duan Changmian and, raising his hand, slapped him on the head. The latter was knocked off balance and almost fell flat on his rear end.

This action does little damage, but it's extremely insulting.

When the uneven length cotton hair got angry, Su Pingbei sneered coldly: "What After a few days of not cleaning up you guys, are you all starting to show your teeth"

"Surrounding the inn with people, what a bold move! Do you know where this is If you cause the foreign powers to ridicule us, it would be a disgrace to the Qin Empire. Is this how your father raised you"

"Su Pingbei, you dare to hit me!" Duan Changmian roared.

Su Pingbei let out a sneer and said, "No wonder I don't like playing with you guys. It's just boring. Besides yelling and bragging about whose father has a bigger official position, what else can you bunch of incompetent fools do"

"Having said that, Su Pingbei smiled at Chen Tong and said: "Alright, this general is here now. There are sixty Yulin guards outside. Chen deputy commander, you start now. Bind these bastards who dared to break into the inn and disgrace our Qin state. Imprison them in the dungeon if necessary. This general is curious, with both Dongchang and Yulin Guards joining forces to arrest people, who would dare to resist"

Chen Tong smiled and clasped his hands together, saying: "Thank you, General."

"Having said that, Chen Tong waved his hand and ordered, "Grab him!"

A group of Jinyi Guards immediately surrounded them, separating Duan Changmian and his guards.

Looking at the menacing Jin Yiwei in their fine attire, and Su Pingbei, who seemed to relish the prospect of them rebelling with helmets clamped under their arms, the guards exchanged glances. None dared to make a move.

Kidding aside, working for Duan Fu is about seeking wealth, but these people in front of me... If I were to kill them right here, not a single one would cry out. No one would truly risk their lives for the young master by going against the Dongchang or even the Yulinwei. They wouldn't be sane enough to do that.

Even Duan Changmian himself wouldn't dare.

He was bound by two Jinyiwei guards. He struggled a couple of times and shouted at Su Pingbei, "Su Pingbei! Do you know who my father is You dare to have me bound!"

Su Pingbei let out a sneer and said, "When my father led troops into battle, your father was still in the military archives department, moving documents. You arrested me What can you possibly do to me"

At that very moment, the window in the attic creaked open.

Li Chen's lazy face appeared.

"Isn't it done yet" Li Chen asked, frowning.

Su Pingbei was startled and quickly straightened his body, trying to make a serious and dignified expression on his face. He bowed and said, "Master Duan Changmian has been apprehended!"ing to assassinate the Crown Prince!The message sent shivers down his spine. His first reaction was to report it immediately, regardless of its truthfulness.Rounding a narrow alley, there are two road...
