In ruins.
Dozens of Chu prisoners were led to kneel down in front of Zhao Hongming.
Zhao Hongming stared at the dozens of Chu prisoners in front of him and said seriously: "Tell me. Whose orders did you all follow? How did you enter the Wei Dynasty? What is your purpose? Whoever tells you first, I will spare his life. "
As soon as these words came out, many prisoners of Chu looked at each other.
After a while, a prisoner from the Chu State said with a bit of luck: "Sir, we are all ordered by the King of Chu to kill the crown prince of Wei and consume the Wei State's heritage. We followed the Wei State as early as three months ago The merchants entered the Wei State, and I heard that the weapons and soft armor were forged in the Wei State by the Sword Making Villa."
Sword-making Villa?
Zhao Hongming's brows jumped.
He was impressed by the name of this martial arts force.
It is a second-rate martial arts force that has risen rapidly in Wei State in recent years.
Unexpectedly, he would collude with the people of Chu State.
To elaborate, he had a vague feeling that the martial arts forces in the Wei Kingdom had recently been on the rise and disobedient to discipline.
Zheng Yimen also turned a blind eye to this.
If things continue like this, I'm afraid it won't be long before someone helps the dragon.
The royal family of Wei might have to change their surname.
I don't know how his father, who is rarely seen often, would deal with such a situation.
Zhao Hongming asked: "I am very curious about one thing. How did you know our respective routes to leave the palace?"
"Young ones don't know. Before we took action, Master Shen met with a Korean assassin. He probably got the information from the Korean assassin."
Hearing this answer, Zhao Hongming frowned slightly.
Even they themselves are not clear about their respective travel routes. Someone in the palace must have leaked the information.
Now that a Korean assassin is involved, the water in Daliang Palace is getting muddier.
Zhao Hongming asked a few more questions, but the Chu prisoner couldn't answer any of them.
In an instant, he lost interest and ordered: "Cut them all!"
"Sir, you said you would spare my life." Chu Bing, who was the first to show up, struggled hysterically.
"That's right. If you want to be true to your word, then cut off your hands and feet and throw them into the mountains. I will spare your life, and let's see if the wolves in the mountains are willing to spare you."
Hearing this, Chu Bing, who was the first to show up, seemed to have his soul taken out, and fell to the ground very spinelessly.
The Imperial Guards who were escorting the Chu soldiers to surrender waved their swords at Zhao Hongming's order.
Click, click, click...
The crisp sounds of knives chopping bones could be heard at the scene.
Seeing such a scene for the first time, Chen Xuerong and Wang Bao couldn't help feeling terrified.
On the other hand, Zhao Hongming is naturally courageous. When he saw this scene, his face was expressionless, and his psychological quality was far better than ordinary people.
After dealing with the prisoners, Zhao Hongming shouted: "Captain Wu!"
Upon hearing the summons, Wu Qi stood up from the imperial army to pay his respects.
Zhao Hongming helped him up and said: "This time we were attacked, Commander Wu commanded it well. Let Commander Wu take the enemy's war horse. In addition, there are a lot of Origin Stones. Commander Wu also took fifty of them." go."
Wu Qi was shocked when he heard this.
In this battle, Zhao Hongming is undoubtedly the most powerful.
If he hadn't stopped the two Xiantian realm warriors, they might all have died.
Where is their share?
Due to emotions and reasons, Zhao Hongming was helpful to them.
Even if Zhao Hongming took them all, they couldn't say anything. At most, they just complained a few words in their hearts.
But I didn't expect that he would be so generous all of a sudden.
You must know that his monthly salary is only three wish stones.
What Zhao Hongming gave him was worth more than a year's salary, not to mention a horse.
Entering the Wei court as a man who had lost his country, Shangfeng had never looked at him directly. Only he could know the bitterness of his experience.
Now that he was finally appreciated, Wu Qi burst into tears of gratitude and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. Wu is willing to die for Your Highness."
It can be seen that this man Zhao Hongming is a rare general, and he may be able to achieve great achievements in the future.
At this time, if you show kindness and righteousness at the last moment, it may be of some benefit in the future.
Zhao Hongming said pleasantly: "Captain Wu doesn't have to be like this."
After that, Zhao Hongming called Wu Qi's deputy and divided some as usual.
This time he was very generous.
After all, spending other people's money and winning people's hearts is not a good thing that happens often.
Zhao Hongming was not only generous to Wu Qi, but also the people close to him. Other ordinary Imperial Guards were also generous.
Chang Wubing, Chen Xuerong and others received about twenty taels of reward silver and ten wish stones.
The rest of the Forbidden Army each received three wish stones and were rewarded with ten taels of silver. If the injured were more seriously injured, they were given an additional wish stone and were awarded five taels of silver.
It was Gao Yanshi who was rewarded with five taels of silver for his merit in driving.
As for Wang Bao, Zhao Hongming was a little disappointed with him.
When encountering critical moments, it does not play a key role, and doing things in the palace is relatively ordinary.
But because of his loyalty, he still gave him five wish stones and twelve taels of silver.
Chang Wubing and Wang Bao had been following Zhao Hongming for so many years, but this was the first time they received a reward from Zhao Hongming, and they couldn't help but feel mixed emotions.
Wang Bao had no objection to the reward he received.
He knew that his abilities were limited and he did not play any role in this battle. Zhao Hongming was very grateful that he did not blame him.
After all the rewards were distributed, there were still silver coins and jewelry worth about a few hundred taels and about a hundred wish stones left.
These were naturally pocketed by Zhao Hongming himself and became his private treasury.
Since they had received the reward and distributed it in front of them, all the Imperial Guards were inexplicably excited.
After a tough battle, everyone made a fortune, except those who were dead, and all felt it was worth it.
When they looked at Zhao Hongming again, the fear in their eyes was instantly diluted, and they added a bit of respect. They shouted: "Your Majesty, the Fifth Highness, may you live a thousand years!"
"Gao Yanshi, drive for me!" Zhao Hongming casually ordered.
Gao Yanshi knew that he had caught Zhao Hongming's eye, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He climbed onto the frame of the car excitedly, and waved his whip in his hand: "Drive!"
"Array up and move forward."
The commander of the camp, Wu Qi, roared, and the remaining guards who were slightly injured continued to escort Zhao Hongming to the Zhengyi Palace, while those who were more seriously injured stayed where they were.
Wu Qi has sent people back to Daliang City to report the incident. Someone will come here later to deal with the corpse and other related matters.
Boom!
Just after Zhao Hongming and others set off, the thundering dark clouds finally began to rain.
Lishan suddenly became misty and hazy.
Zhao Hongming, who was sitting in the carriage, seemed to have thought of something and shouted: "Let Miss Chen come in."
After a while, Chen Xuerong entered the carriage as requested.
"What do you want from me, Your Highness?"
Zhao Hongming joked with a half-smile: "Nothing's wrong, it's raining outside, please ask my 'master' to come in and take shelter from the rain."
As soon as he finished speaking, it rained harder outside.
The raindrops fell on the carriage, making a crackling sound.
Chen Xuerong did not respond. He neither exited nor immediately entered the carriage and sat down.
"Why, Miss Chen doesn't want to? I won't eat you."
Chen Xuerong asked: "Does Your Highness like to look at breasts?"
"What?"
"I noticed that His Highness stared at my breasts many times just now."
Zhao Hongming was caught off guard by Chen Xuerong's sudden question.
