That night, there were constant screams in Youzhou City.
It didn't stop for a while until dawn.
And then several bloody corpses were hung on the city wall.
Qi Quanquan died before he could reach a thousand swords.
As for his three clans, although they cried and were wronged, as a prince of a fiefdom, especially Zhao Ding, he still came through the most chaotic period in Youzhou.
Even the woman's kindness at this moment can only harm himself, harm the entire Youzhou City, and harm the situation that he spent eight years creating.
But even so.
Zhao Ding still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
It feels like since I traveled through time, my heart has gradually become cold-blooded.
But there is nothing we can do.
In this era where countries are competing for hegemony.
A person cannot stand firmly if he is not ruthless.
You need to have both compassion and the intention to hide the tiger.
After finding a room, Zhao Ding locked himself up.
A night of drinking.
No one in Prince Yan's mansion dared to disturb him.
They also understood that their prince had not lost such a temper for a long time.
Even Lu Tao just placed the food at Zhao Ding's door and did not knock on the door to disturb him.
And Zhang San is still following Zhao Ding's orders, looking around for those who are eating things inside and outside of Youzhou City.
Kill each one you catch.
There is no way to establish authority without killing.
And in contrast to that.
News of Wen Liang's death also spread like wildfire.
Inside the border defense camp in Nanchen.
Two Nancheng generals wearing battle armor, rough faces and beards sat in the Chinese army tent with gloomy expressions.
These past few days have been a series of bad news for their border troops in Nanchen.
First, the elite heavy-armored battalion of the king's faction was completely wiped out, and then Wen Liang, the son of Qi Guogong in Nanchen, was captured. Now it is the killer they sent into Youzhou City. Ever since they entered Prince Yan's Mansion, all the news was like a mud cow entering the sea. All gone.
Even those insiders in Youzhou who were bribed by them were completely wiped out.
Right now.
Suddenly there was a rapid shout from outside the big tent.
"Report!"
A Nanchen soldier wearing Nanchen armor and a scout outfit stumbled in.
"Deputy Marshal Liu, General Chen, something big has happened, then Zhao Ding will kill Mr. Wen..."
The scout looked at Liu Sanyuan and Chen Quan with a trembling voice, and swallowed hard.
"You're such a bitch."
Liu Sanyuan kicked the scout. He was so anxious that he took out the saber in his hand and was about to put it on the scout's neck, but was stopped by Chen Quan.
Chen Quan looked at the scout with a solemn expression: "Then what did Zhao Ding do to the Marquis?"
The so-called Marquis naturally refers to gentleness.
And what they are sitting here waiting for is Wen Liang's news.
"Master Hou...Master Hou is dead..."
At this point, the scout suddenly started crying.
Wen Liang was the son of Duke Wen Ziheng of Qi and the nephew of the current Emperor Nanchen. He was very popular in the Nanchen Court and was favored by the current emperor. Otherwise, he would not have known that he was already the prince of Duke Qi and the successor of the next generation. The Duke of Nanchen Qi was also granted the title of Marquis.
As a result, he died on the border of Nanchen, in the hands of the feudal king of Nanchen's enemy country, Daqian.
One can imagine the uproar this news will cause once it reaches the capital.
Others don't know it, but the gentle mother and the eldest princess of Nanchen will definitely go crazy.
Once that woman goes crazy, Wen Ziheng will give in.
Boom!
These words were like thunder exploding in Liu Sanyuan's ears. Liu Sanyuan felt his eyes go dark, and he fell to the ground uncontrollably. He turned his head tremblingly and looked at Chen Quan: "It's over. Our career ends here."
The gentle mother and the eldest princess of Nanchen was extremely powerful.
She is the only sister of the current emperor of Nanchen. She is deeply trusted by the emperor of Nanchen, and her power in Nanchen is still higher than that of Duke Wen Ziheng of Qi.
"What are you afraid of?"
Chen Quan's face turned cold, "It was Wen Ziheng who asked us to do this. If that crazy woman pursues the case and goes to Wen Ziheng, what does it have to do with the two of us?"
After saying this, Chen Quan turned to face the outside and shouted: "Immediately repair the book and send someone 800 miles back to Kyoto to report the matter to Your Majesty. Your Majesty will decide everything."
"yes!"
Then, Chen Quan's words fell.
It didn't take long for a fast horse to run towards the capital of Nanchen.
And at the same time.
In Youzhou City, there is also a fast horse heading towards Yingtian.
In Prince Yan's Mansion, Qi Yunu's room.
Qi Yunu, who was pale and had gauze wrapped around his shoulders, had woken up.
After all, it was just as the doctor said.
Although Xiao Yunu seemed to be seriously injured, his muscles and bones were not injured and he would be fine after a period of rest.
At this moment, Xiao Yunu was sitting by the bed, and Lu Tao was giving her medicine in person.
Teeth squeaked.
The door was pushed open from outside.
Zhao Ding walked into the room.
Behind him were Qi Buyu and Li Fangru.
At first glance, these two people actually followed Zhao Ding in.
Xiao Yunu was immediately shocked: "Master Qi, Master Li, you???"
"Your Highness Princess, we..."
Li Fangru smiled sarcastically.
Qi Buyu also looked embarrassed.
He said he was here to save people.
As a result, the two of them were caught without even jumping off the city wall. After interrogation, they didn't need to be tortured. They used everything they could and couldn't.
"My identity...."
For a moment, Xiao Yunu was confused.
Then he lowered his head in embarrassment and looked at Zhao Ding carefully, "I'm not..."
"Okay, let's not talk about this."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhao Ding raised his hand to interrupt Xiao Yunu's words, then sat on the table in Xiao Yunu's room, then picked up a piece of fruit, took a bite, looked at Xiao Yunu and said, "Go back Well, you assassinate me once and save me again. If that's the case, then you and I owe nothing to each other."
In addition, Zhao Ding took out 150,000 taels of silver notes from his sleeve and slapped them on the table: "This is your 150,000 taels of silver from back then. Take it."
Although in the past few days, she, Xiao Yunu, had been thinking about her 150,000 taels of silver and wanted to get some back.
But I don’t know why, looking at Zhao Ding like this at the moment.
On the contrary, an inexplicable emotion arose in Xiao Yunu's heart.
He bit his lip and looked at Zhao Ding, but in the end he didn't say anything.
However, Qi Buyu and Li Fangru on the side were instantly overjoyed when they heard Zhao Ding's words.
He quickly picked up the 150,000 taels of silver notes on the table, walked to Xiao Yunu's bedside, and looked at Xiao Yunu, who was still pale at the moment: "Your Highness, when will we go back?"
However, Xiao Yunu stubbornly turned her head, looked at Lu Tao and asked: "Sister Lu Tao, why does Zhao Ding drive me away? What if I don't leave?"
