Chapter 296 The lingering ghost
Chapter 296 The lingering ghost
"Asshole, if you bump into Zheng'er, I will kill all your clans!"
Eunuch Hua quickly crawled on the ground, his whole body trembling, and he kowtowed violently. The wound on his head that had been bandaged was torn open again. Even though it was painful, it was much better than killing all his nine clans.
"Your Majesty, please spare my life, Your Majesty, please spare my life~"
There was once a female official who served the second prince. Because she accidentally spilled some soup on the second prince's robe while serving food, the Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty dragged her out and fed her to the spirit beasts. Her entire clan was also executed.
"Tell me, what happened!"
In order not to offend Murong Zheng, the Emperor of Western Jin Dynasty suppressed his anger and asked.
"Your Majesty, it is Jia Lan who has sent out the troops, and they are already outside the city gate!"
The Western Jin emperor was surprised. They arrived earlier than he expected. "How many troops did they have?"
"Less than 200,000! Captain Wu and Adjutant Mo have already led their troops forward."
Hearing this, the Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty snorted coldly. Before he could say anything, a deafening explosion sounded and the entire earth shook.
The Western Jin emperor quickly put the blood in his hand on the table and said, "Zheng'er, drink the blood quickly!"
Murong Zheng remained indifferent.
"Report~"
There was another hurried voice outside the door.
"Your Majesty, the city gate has been lost, Captain Wu is dead..."
"Report~"
Another hurried voice.
"Your Majesty, nearly half of the 300,000 elite soldiers of the Western Jin Dynasty have been poisoned and are unable to fight!"
"Report~"
"Deputy General Mo is seriously injured... Let the Emperor leave quickly!"
"Report..."
One bad report after another made the Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty dizzy. He staggered a few steps and then slumped in his chair.
how so! how so!
I wanted to say something, but no sound came out of my throat.
"Report!"
"Jia Lan's soldiers are heading towards the City Lord's Mansion!"
Eunuch Hua was panicked. He didn't want to die. He quickly crawled to the front of the Western Jin Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, hurry up and leave. It will be too late if you don't leave now!"
"Your Majesty, take the Second Prince and leave quickly. I'm afraid that Wangfeng City will be lost!"
Wu Ji said, coming to his senses, not caring about anything else, and hurriedly pulled Murong Zheng up, but Murong Zheng shook his hands off. Turning around, he saw Murong Zheng picking up the blood on the table and drinking it.
The scarlet eyes returned to their normal color and the ears on their heads disappeared.
"You, go, found it!"
After Murong Zheng finished speaking, he left without looking back, leaving a few people standing there in a daze.
The Emperor of Western Jin Dynasty was even more stunned. This was the longest sentence Zheng'er had ever said in his life. He immediately burst into tears. At the same time, he also realized what he said. He said let him go, and he found it?
Could it be that what the expert said was true? This means that the person who can save Zheng Er is in this city!
But it was the first time that Zheng'er left alone, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Wu Ji could see the emperor's worry and said, "Your Majesty, since the Second Prince said so, he must have really found it. Besides, although the Second Prince is not good at speaking, he is smart and perceptive, and his cultivation is not low. Your Majesty can relax."
After hearing Wu Ji say this, the Emperor of Western Jin Dynasty also felt relieved.
Bang! Another loud noise.
At the city gate, flames shot up into the sky and screams were heard. The drugged soldiers had no strength at all and were like fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.
Gong Mingyue and Ji Jiuying just watched the show in secret the whole time.
A group of people rushed into the City Lord's Mansion, but unfortunately it was empty. The soldiers from Wangfeng City had already died in the prison. The City Lord of Wangfeng City was no exception. He died in a horrible way, with his body covered in blood.
Feng Yu looked at the corpses all over the floor and flies all over the prison and felt a pang of pain in his heart. He often interacted with the mayor of Wangfeng City. He had just become a father a month ago. At that time, he mocked his son for being slower than him and even said that he wanted his daughter to recognize him as her godfather. Now, he was lying here, with his eyes open, staring at the female corpse not far away. Feng Yu recognized her. She was Jinsheng's beloved wife. The female corpse was in disarray and covered in blood. One could imagine what she had experienced in her life!
Feng Yu closed Jinsheng's eyes with his hands, then looked around, but did not see the baby.
Han Shaoyi and Han Shaoting came up and patted him on the shoulder, "Brother Feng, please accept my condolences!"
"Lu Li, send some soldiers to bury these brothers! And check their families and provide compensation." Han Shaoyi waved his hand and gave the order.
"Remember to bury Lord Jincheng and his lover together." Feng Yu added.
While cleaning up the battlefield and the city lord's mansion, a soldier found two unconscious maids and a one-month-old baby in a dry well.
Feng Yu hurried back after hearing the news. When he saw the jade pendant on the baby, he knew that this was Jinsheng's daughter.
After Ji Jiuying's help, the two maids and the baby just fainted from hunger. If they were discovered a day later, they would definitely not see the sun tomorrow. In the end, Feng Yu adopted the baby as his goddaughter and raised her.
The maids said that there were four maids taking care of the young lady. Two of them hid at the bottom of the well, and the other two pretended to surrender and continued to serve the officers and soldiers of the Western Jin Dynasty in the City Lord's Mansion. They would put food at the bottom of the well every night. However, two days ago, both of them were missing. They guessed that they must have met with an accident, and they could only wait for Jia Lan's people to rescue them.
That night, Yingyue captured the escaped Western Jin emperor and brought him back to Wangfeng City.
Murong Yun, who was far away in the Western Jin Dynasty, finished reading the letter in his hand and angrily smashed the table in front of him with a palm.
Cang Yue finally took action! Even if he had no evidence now, he could guess a thing or two. Now that his father was in Jia Lan's hands, they had gone from being active to being passive.
His plan was disrupted again. Now Feng Luo was not there again, leaving only two Spiritual Masters to assist him.
Direct hijacking? I'm afraid it will anger Jia Lan.
Finally, after discussions among a group of ministers, the Western Jin Dynasty offered ten cities and three spiritual mines in exchange for the life of the Western Jin emperor. Finally, they presented a letter of peace and, in order to express their sincerity, they also sent a princess as a marriage partner. As for which princess, they did not say.
As for King Beixiang, he naturally could not escape death. His body was hung at the gate of Fengyue City, not only to vent anger, but also to warn the Western Jin Dynasty.
Zhang Bo's fate was not much better. He was stabbed to death by the people while being paraded through the streets, and was finally dumped in a mass grave.
The war between the two countries ended.
Ji Jiuying, Gong Mingyue and Hei Xiangling went to the capital of the far north.
Yingyue took Qingling, Fengshuang and the others back to Cangyue.
Jun Lintian brought Cangyue's soldiers and returned to Cangyue disguised as ordinary people.
Two days later.
Ji Jiuying frowned slightly, why is the ghost still lingering around?
"Girl, do you want to deal with the person behind you?"
Hei Xiang Ling crossed his arms and said disapprovingly.
As soon as she left Wangfeng City, she found that someone had been following her, but there was no ill intention on her part, so she didn't want to pay any attention to him. She just wanted to leave Jialan Country quickly and get rid of the person behind her. However, as soon as they landed in the Far North Capital, the person behind them appeared again.
This made her take it seriously! The flying speed of this little boy was not slow, and it was impossible for ordinary spirit beasts to catch up with him.
She wanted to see who he was and what his purpose was!
