Cui Min, who was sandwiched between Ji Wan and Sui Ruoxu, said: "..."

Cui Min smiled and said, "Your Highness, Xuan Xiao, if this man has no intention of surrendering, then kill him."

Ji Wan was about to nod when he saw that the county magistrate was trembling with fear. Even so, his lips were tightly pursed.

As if he was afraid that he would accidentally beg for mercy.

"Hey, Ding Wu, give him the dagger. If you don't want to live, then kill yourself.

If you want to live, I will spare your life, but you will not be an official in the future.

I admire your stubbornness, so I'm giving you the opportunity to make your own choice." Ji Wan raised his chin.

Sui Ruoxu pursed his lips, thinking about the thin friendship between colleagues before, and finally opened his mouth to persuade.

"My Lord is merciful and will keep his word. If you choose to live, no one will ever let you die."

Who would have thought that after seeing Sui Ruoxu, the county magistrate was so frightened that he trembled all over and shouted loudly: "Ah, ghost!"

"A ghost that came back from the dead!"

He personally saw Sui Ruoxu's body being carried out of the general's mansion.

How come he came out with a white cloth wrapped around his neck?

The county magistrate's face was filled with fear. He then picked up the dagger in front of him without hesitation and stabbed himself in the abdomen. After struggling for a while, he became silent.

Ji Wan: “…”

Cui Min: “…”

Sui Ruoxu: “…”

Ding Wu: “…”

Ji Wan shook his head, refusing to admit that this man chose to die because he was frightened.

In less than a day, Zhengyang City in Qiandao State became Ji Wan's territory.

This situation is naturally a good thing for our own soldiers.

But for the people who are frightened by the war, it is not a good thing.

When Ji Wan saw them, the people were huddled together, their whole bodies filled with fear.

Some dirty men kowtowed continuously when they saw Ji Wan, hoping that she would let their wives and daughters go.

They helped Cui Xia repair the city just to jointly resist Ji Wan.

Now that Ji Wan is the victor and has conquered the city, they are the sinners...

Especially a mother and daughter, who were hugging each other. The child was buried in her mother's arms, her body shaking constantly, and she was obviously crying out of fear.

But he didn't dare to make any sound in front of Ji Wan.

"After you've registered, go home. I won't kill you. Live the same way you lived before."

Although Ji Wan felt distressed, there was nothing she could do. She had seen this situation many times when she was in Fanzhou.

After saying that, Ji Wan pointed to Liang Yan and Sui Ruoxu and said, "Go to these two gentlemen and register one by one, and then go home."

As soon as Ji Wan finished speaking, the people stopped crying in an instant, and some of them who were so scared stopped shaking.

It was an elderly man, who knelt tremblingly and asked: "Is what His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhenbei said true, true?"

"It's true, I will send someone to take over Zhengyang City tomorrow.

When the time comes, I'll have them teach you how to use the watches. Your rights in the future will be written on the watches."

Ji Wan helped the man up, said something, and then turned and left.

The soldiers have gone to pick up the researcher Gao Qu and the children from Moxiang Academy who came via the teleportation array.

Tomorrow the renovation and transformation of the city will be on track.

Right now Zhengyang City is in a state of disrepair. Ji Wan was thinking as he inspected the city.

When seeing the injured enemy soldiers, Ji Wan suddenly remembered that during the Chinese Valentine's Day last year, there was a young man who went to Chuzhou with refugees.

That person was from Thousand Islands State.

"Yang Guan, go ask Doctor Xia if he's willing to come."

"Yes." Yang Guan bowed his head respectfully.

Looking at the sky that was already dark in the distance.

Ji Wan covered her mouth and yawned.

Then he turned around and headed straight for Chen Chang's general's mansion.

Off work! Go to sleep! After all these days of fighting, she hasn't had a good night's sleep!

I must go back and have a good rest.

Yang Guan helped Ji Wan to the general's residence, found a clean room, and helped His Highness bathe, wash, and change clothes.

Then he found that His Highness was already very sleepy and fell asleep just lying on the bed.

After carefully carrying the person to the bed and tucking in the quilt, Yang Guan knelt beside the bed, staring at Ji Wan's sleeping face with some greed.

After a while, he relaxed his body, turned around and continued to sit on the ground, leaning his back against His Highness's bed, and closed his eyes to practice.

He could no longer share a bed with His Highness as he had done during the war.

Your Highness is so precious, how can he sleep with a servant like him?

Just looking at His Highness's sleeping face made him satisfied.

Here, the years are peaceful.

Cui Xia was lying on the shaking carriage, his face pale. He slowly woke up, the pain in his lower body unbearable.

As he listened to the soldiers outside discussing where to return to, he suddenly came to his senses and said in a weak and thin voice: "Go... go to the pirates' island."

Once he got there, he could at least find a proper military doctor to treat his wounds instead of being thrown to some doctor and left to fend for himself.

There was silence outside the carriage for a moment, and then a man's deep voice came over: "Subordinates, please obey orders. Second Young Master, just take a good rest."

Only then did Cui Xia dare to breathe a sigh of relief, and then he reached down with a dim look in his eyes.

Sure enough, apart from the blood on his hands, his entire lower body disappeared.

Only at this point did Cui Xia seem to finally be certain that he had become a useless person.

Tears flowed silently from my eyes without any warning.

He couldn't make a sound. There were low-status soldiers outside. If he cried out, the entire Cui family would lose face!

But...his entire lower body disappeared.

If Ren Jin had not arrived in time, stopped the bleeding, found him a new carriage, and captured two deserters to take care of him.

He might have died long ago.

Ren Jin is a cultivator. He can stop bleeding on his body with just a wave of his hand. You can't see a trace of blood unless you touch it.

But it hurts, his whole body is broken into two pieces, it hurts so much.

It hurts so much...

He will never have legs again, and he is only seventeen years old...

So why couldn't Ren Jin come earlier to save him? If he had been rescued earlier, his leg could have been saved.

Why couldn’t you come earlier... and kill Ji Wan as well.

Thinking of Ji Wan, Cui Xia shuddered again, and his mind kept recalling the moment when the courtesan was blown into a bloody mess and her head and body were separated in his arms.

There was also the feeling of powerlessness as all his plans were broken by Ji Wan one by one.

No matter how he struggled, he couldn't escape the crushing feeling of Ji Wan's palm...

Cui Xia was filled with hatred and fear. He hated Ji Wan, but was also afraid of the explosives in Ji Wan's hands.

Lying in the swaying carriage, Cui Xia's tears kept falling, wetting the hair on both sides of his temples.
