Liu Rumei cried with joy after reading the news from Shuozhou. The thing she cared about most finally had the best result, and most of the people came back.
What made Liu Rumei even more delighted was that Liu Xiangnan also sent news back from the border, and everything was calm at the border.
After receiving these two good news within one day, Liu Rumei's mood became much better. Of course, Chen Xiaobei could clearly feel the change in Liu Rumei's mood. His wife was happy, and his mood naturally improved.
"Rumei, everything is better than we expected. Now it seems that the possibility of the Earth Kingdom attacking us is not high."
Liu Rumei nodded lightly, "Yes, when they have no chance to make a surprise attack, they obviously don't have much chance of winning in a head-on confrontation with us. So as long as my father is at the border, they will probably not have the possibility of attacking again."
Chen Xiaobei frowned, "The matter needs to be completely resolved. We can't let our father be stationed at the border all the time."
"But the big country is strong and we are weak. If we take the initiative to seek peace, we will not be able to do it unless we can get the big country to ask us."
Liu Rumei looked worried, Chen Xiaobei thought for a moment, but then laughed.
"I have an idea. We can send Duobang back."
"Brother Xiaobei, Duobang is the captain of Jopson's guard. Besides, he committed a capital crime. If he is released like this, I'm afraid..."
Chen Xiaobei raised his hand, "Many countries assassinated His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and concealed our Da Cang law. Of course, but think about it, when the senior elder sister and the second senior elder sister entered Qingguang City, even the national preceptor of the Great Earth Kingdom Kill him, that’s why Jopson is so eager to take revenge!”
Liu Rumei was silent for a while after hearing Xiaobei's words. Chen Xiaobei was right, it was indeed true.
But having said that, if the Lotus Cult Leader and the others hadn't made such a big fuss in Qingguang City, it wouldn't have been so easy for him to retreat.
"Brother Xiaobei, our two countries have a deep blood feud. You said that if you want the two families to just laugh it off, I'm afraid that's not possible."
After listening to his words, Chen Xiaobei did not give up.
"Everything in the world is unpredictable, and considering the current situation between the enemy and ourselves, our father-in-law is stationed at our border. It will not be easy for the country to win."
"But on the other hand, it is easy for Lao Taishan to defend the country and let him attack the big country, but it is also difficult for him to do so."
"Duobang is just a dead person to us, but if he is put back, it may have a better effect than killing him. I want to see him tonight!"
After listening to Chen Xiaobei's words, a bright light flashed in Liu Rumei's eyes, "Is this really feasible?"
"If Duobang doesn't admit his debt after returning, then we will be in a hurry."
"So what? The worst case scenario is that we start all over again. We leave Duobang behind, and the final outcome is just to chop off his head, saying it's to avenge His Highness the Crown Prince. But considering the current situation, this doesn't make much sense at all. !”
After listening to Chen Xiaobei's words, Liu Rumei nodded again, "Okay, then everything will be as you said!"
After Chen Xiaobei finished arranging the place, he turned to see Bai Han and told him his idea of letting Duobang go back. Bai Han shook his head after hearing this.
"Consort, I'm afraid this is too risky. We have good intentions, but he may not appreciate it."
Chen Xiaobei raised his hand and shook it twice, looked at Bai Han and said earnestly, "How will you know if you don't try? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been buried. The people have experienced this New Year and will soon have to accept the grief of the emperor's assassination. So Once this happens, none of them can remember this country."
"Speaking of which, even if we kill Duobang, what will it be of use? What the people see is not who we avenge, but how we can make them eat, wear clothes, and reunite their families."
After hearing what Chen Xiaobei said, Bai Han was secretly surprised. He had been serving Xiao An, and he had some understanding of these great theories and strategies for governing the country. But when Chen Xiaobei said these words, he was still... It was beyond his comprehension.
Chen Xiaobei thinks about all the people in the world.
Thinking of this, Bai Han clasped his fists and said with some admiration, "Since Prince Consort Chen ignores his personal safety and wants to see this Duobang, I will make arrangements right away."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "Don't say it in such a scary way, I believe there won't be any danger."
At the third watch of the day, Chen Xiaobei arrived at the Tianlao on time. Bai Han had already been waiting there. When he saw Chen Xiaobei coming, Bai Han still came forward and clasped his fists in salute, then turned around and left. The two of them were still there. There is no communication.
Bai Han led Chen Xiaobei all the way straight into the prison.
This time, Bai Han did not take Chen Xiaobei to Duobang's cell, but instead invited Chen Xiaobei into a separate interrogation room.
"Consort Chen, please wait a moment again, I will bring the prisoner over."
Bai Han still came to Duobang's cell and shook the iron chain.
In his sleep, Duobang rubbed his sleepy eyes. He looked at Bai Han in the shadow of the lamp.
Bai Han had no expression on his face and said in a deep voice, "Let's go. Come with me when you get up."
Dobang didn't make any sense and stood up.
He waved and two guards came forward to open the cell door.
The door opened, Duobang's front legs came out, and the guards on both sides of his back legs came forward and added an iron chain.
Bai Han turned around and left. Dobang followed behind.
Bai Han went straight to the interrogation room where Chen Xiaobei was, pushed the door aside, and pointed inside.
Duobang stood at the door and looked inside.
Sitting inside was Chen Xiaobei, who looked familiar to Duobang.
He looked at Bai Han with doubtful eyes. Bai Han pointed inside and said loudly, "Go in, Prince Consort Chen has something to tell you!"
When he heard that it was Chen Xiaobei, Duobang was shocked. He was caught while assassinating Chen Xiaobei, so he was particularly sensitive when he heard this name.
Full of doubts, Duobang walked into the room, bowed to Chen Xiaobei, and said loudly, "Duobang has met Chen's consort!"
Chen Xiaobei nodded slightly and pointed to the chair on the far side of him.
"Dobang, sit down, I have something to tell you."
Duobang carefully sat down on the chair. After all, he was now wearing handcuffs and shackles, and two extra chains. Let alone escaping, even if he wanted to plot against Chen Xiaobei, it was absolutely impossible.
"Duobang, I want to let you go back!"
Upon hearing these opening remarks, Duobang was shocked. He obviously did not expect that he would be able to leave Wannian City alive after killing Xiao Jingyun.
So about this. He still wanted to test, but when he thought of this, he sighed, "Chen Prince Consort, since I have fallen into your hands, I will admit whether you want to kill or chop me into pieces, but if you really let me go, I am a dying person. Just tell me your conditions.”
Looking at the serious Duobang, Chen Xiaobei nodded slightly. Duobang was a smart man, and of course he knew very well that he would never let him go back without any reason.
