Seven days later, a small sedan quietly entered the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion from the side door.
From then on, Ye Yuqing became the concubine of Pingyuan Hou's second son.
Having learned a profound lesson from her previous life, Ye Yuqing has acted very insignificant since she entered Pingyuan Hou Mansion.
Apart from embroidering in the backyard and serving Han Chengyu, he basically doesn't go out much.
The day when Han Chengyu and the eldest daughter of the Lin family will get married is coming soon. The whole family is busy arranging the wedding for the two of them and has no time to talk to her.
Mrs. Hou and Mrs. Han sent people to observe her for a period of time. They saw that there was nothing wrong with her and they didn't care about her anymore.
Pingnan Palace
King Pingnan looked at the head brought by the deputy general and sat down on the Taishi chair.
The hall was silent, no one dared to speak.
After a while, King Pingnan stood up tremblingly and closed his son's staring eyes with his hands.
He held his son's head in his arms, his eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Li Yunze, I will cut you into pieces with a thousand knives, crush your bones and spread ashes."
He gently stroked his son's head and told the trusted guard next to him, "Go and ask the Shadow Hero to come over."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Shadow's real name is Zhang Dayan. The reason why everyone calls him Shadow is because he can invisibility.
When he was eighteen years old, he defeated the then martial arts leader in just five moves.
No one knows how profound his martial arts is, but anyone who has fought against him, no matter how famous he is in the world or how powerful his martial arts is, cannot survive ten moves in his hands.
Various gangs recommended him to be the new martial arts leader, but he refused.
Although his martial arts skills are invincible, he doesn't care about fame and fortune. When he couldn't find anyone to joust with, he disappeared.
A few years later, he appeared in the arena again.
The reason was that his wife suffered from a strange disease. He heard that there was a miracle doctor in Prince Pingnan's palace, so he brought his wife to find him.
After King Pingnan knew his identity, he let the couple stay in the palace without saying a word.
He also specially arranged a quiet courtyard for them and asked several doctors from the palace to diagnose and treat his wife.
But his wife's illness was very strange, and several doctors could only treat her with medicine, but they could not cure the root cause.
So the couple has been living in the palace for several years, occasionally disappearing for a period of time, and they will come back soon to have the doctor check their pulse.
Zhang Dayan was very grateful to King Pingnan and once promised him to ask him if he had anything to do. As long as he could do it, he would do it.
But in these years, King Pingnan never asked him to do anything, he just wanted to use this favor wisely.
Just as the guards left, Princess Pingnan and Qiao Guanhua's wife ran in like crazy.
When the two saw the head on the table, they shouted miserably:
"Hua'er, my son..." Princess Pingnan fainted before she could finish her sentence.
"Husband..." The second lady staggered over, looked at her husband's head, screamed, and fell down softly.
The hall suddenly became chaotic.
King Pingnan suppressed his grief and asked his servants to take his wife and daughter-in-law back.
He immediately wrote two secret letters, one of which was sent eight hundred miles away to the capital, and the other to Huzhou for his eldest son.
After finishing all this work, he personally placed his son's head in the coffin.
Zhang Dayan was practicing martial arts in the courtyard. When he heard the sound of hurried footsteps approaching from far away, he immediately put away the sword in his hand.
Their courtyard is in a corner of the palace, and few people usually pass by it.
Prince Pingnan and his concubine knew that the couple was happy to be alone, and they specifically told the servants in the mansion not to come and disturb them if nothing happened.
The person who came here must be looking for him, otherwise no one would come here this late at night.
Before the person who came to report could reach the place, Zhang Dayan opened the courtyard door.
"Master Zhang, Your Majesty invites you." The guard walked to the door and said respectfully.
Zhang Dayan responded immediately without hesitation: "Okay, please wait a moment. I'll change my clothes and go over right away."
The guard did not follow him into the courtyard. Zhang Dayan went to the bedroom first, where his wife was reading under the lamp.
Seeing him come in, he put down the book in his hand and said, "Ms. sir, let me go with you. My illness is almost healed, and it's time to repay this kindness."
Zhang Dayan looked at the rosy-faced lady and nodded.
Both of them knew that King Pingnan definitely needed help when he came to them this time.
The couple lived in the palace these years, and King Pingnan and the princess were very polite to them.
Several doctors from the palace were on call, and all kinds of precious medicinal materials were freely available to them.
If there is nothing in the palace, King Pingnan will send people around to help find it.
The two knew from the beginning that this favor would have to be repaid sooner or later.
Now that the benefactor needs them, the couple will agree to anything no matter what.
King Pingnan and several of his staff were discussing sending troops.
This time he planned to lead the troops into battle in person, but several of his staff did not agree with him going out in person.
Gongsun Qiao cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, since the Prince of Liang and the Marquis of Dingbei have surrendered to the young prince, we need to consider the matter of sending troops in the long term, and we must come up with a perfect strategy."
Wang Yanping also echoed: "Your Majesty, Mr. Gongsun is right. We have lost hundreds of thousands of troops these two times, which has seriously affected the morale of the army.
If troops are sent out immediately, it will definitely have an impact on the psychology of the soldiers.
Your Majesty, why don't you wait a little longer and let Daxia Zhang capture the young prince first. By then, there will be no leader over there, and it won't be too late for us to send out troops. "
After listening to the analysis of the two aides, King Pingnan walked twice in the hall, looked at his son's coffin, and closed his eyes sadly.
The adjutant who came back with Qiao Guanhua's head suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the news we found out at that time said that the young prince was married.
His little daughter-in-law is very beautiful and very popular with the little prince. She can be said to be like a jewel in the palm of her hand.
If the young prince cannot be caught, he can ask Zhang Daxia to bring his wife back, and then she can be used to hold the young prince hostage. "
"Hmph, I hold it like a pearl in my hand. I didn't expect that the Li family would have a love interest."
King Pingnan gritted his teeth and said, "Then capture them both. Then I will chop his wife into pieces in front of Li Yunze, and let him taste the pain of losing a loved one."
Zhang Dayan and his wife followed the guards to the hall. When they saw the coffin placed there, they went to burn incense and worship.
On the way here, the guard had already briefly told them what happened today.
The two of them already knew that King Pingnan's second son was gone, and that he died miserably.
The two people from the Pingnan Dynasty cupped their hands and asked directly without much greeting:
"Daxia Zhang, Mrs. Zhang, my son was killed by someone. The person who killed him was very skilled in martial arts. I would like to ask you two to help me take revenge. I wonder if you two heroes can agree to my request?"
Zhang Dayan clasped her fists and said, "Your Majesty's kindness to me and my wife over the years will never be forgotten. I have said before that if your Majesty needs me to do something, you can just ask me to do it."
"Then thank you Daxia Zhang and Mrs. Zhang."
King Pingnan gave him two portraits, one of Li Yunze and the other of Ye Yutong.
The adjutant described it, and the painter in the mansion had just painted it.
"This is the former crown prince Li Yunze and his wife. They are the two who killed my son. Please help Zhang Daxia to run and bring these couple back for me."
Zhang Dayan was surprised when he heard about their identities, but she still took the two portraits.
"My lord, do you mean to bring them back alive?"
King Pingnan narrowed his eyes and said: "Yes, if you want to live, I will deal with them both personally and avenge my son."
