Fu Xiaoyu's carriage was almost inside the palace gate when it was stopped by a horse that suddenly appeared.

"Your Highness, there is important business, and you cannot enter the palace for the time being."

Fu Xiaoyu had never seen Lin Yun so flustered.

They quickly stopped the carriage and gestured for him to come over.

"What kind of behavior is this, so careless and sloppy?"

"Your Highness has a real emergency and has no choice but to do this. The Princess Consort has been captured by Zhao Qing."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xiaoyu clenched her well-defined fingers into a fist.

Damn it, he still got away. This time he'll probably retaliate even more fiercely, after all, he suffered a lot in prison.

However, the dungeon was guarded both inside and out, so the only one who could let him go was Qiao Qiao.

Fu Xiaoyu then realized that she had fallen into Gongsun Yu's trap. He deliberately let himself be captured and then watched Qiao Qiao release Zhao Qing, so they must have planned it together.

Thinking of this, he quickly snatched Lin Yun's horse and disappeared into the street.

When he arrived at the Prince's Mansion, Qiao Qiao and Gongsun Yu had already prepared people to wait for him at the gate.

"Your Highness, we can discuss everything later. Now is not the time for explanations."

Qiao Qiao knew that with Fu Xiaoyu's intelligence, he must know the whole truth.

Quickly explain to him that saving lives is the priority; if Zhao Qing is eager for revenge, who knows what might happen.

Fortunately, Fu Xiaoyu was a person who knew what was important and didn't pursue the matter further. He led his men and headed towards Yushan.

It's Yushan again. The siege of Kyoto also happened at Yushan. It seems that their fate has always revolved around Yushan.

"Zhao Qing, where did you hide the rain and dew? Be careful or I'll break your arm again."

Behind Du Sanniang stood Tuoba Xuan, Lai Guitou, and others. Tuoba Xuan didn't want Sanniang to come along and risk her life, but Sanniang felt that she had a great responsibility in this matter, so she insisted on coming along.

When she saw Zhao Qing, she was furious.

"Hmph, even if you dismember me now, you won't be able to find Cui Yulu, and you might not even see Cui Yulu alive."

"What are you trying to do, you brat? Hurry up and release the rain or I'll chop you up."

Zhao Qing wasn't afraid of her words at all. Anyway, if he died, Cui Yulu would be buried with him, so he wouldn't suffer a loss.

So he wasn't afraid of wasting time, since there were plenty of people here, and he wasn't afraid even if a fight broke out.

Tuoba Xuan didn't bother to talk to him anymore and simply ordered the barbarian soldiers behind him to surround the entire house.

"Zhao Qing, you'd better let Yu Lu go, or you'll be in big trouble."

Zhao Qing was no pushover either; with a wave of his hand, a volley of arrows shot out from inside the house.

Most of the unsuspecting foreign troops were hit by arrows.

Tuoba Xuan quickly helped Du Sanniang onto the carriage. The carriage had been modified, with an additional layer inside to withstand arrow attacks from the outside.

"You stay here and don't go out. Leave the rest to us. You're heavy and have difficulty moving around, but I promise I'll bring Yulu back."

Du Sanniang was anxious, but seeing the situation outside, she knew that going out would only cause more trouble, so she had no choice but to nod and agree to Tuoba Xuan's request.

"You be careful too, you absolutely must not get hurt."

"Don't worry, they can't hurt me with my skills."

Third Sister believed in Tuoba Xuan's abilities, but he was a very careless person, and who knew where he might get hurt.

An Rou'er quickly walked to Zhao Qing's side. Zhao Qing glanced at An Rou'er and asked in a cold voice, "Is everything arranged?"

She didn't speak, but simply nodded slightly.

At this point, Zhao Qing had no worries at all. Even if they stormed the house, they wouldn't find Cui Yulu.

When the battle reached its climax, Fu Xiaoyu arrived with his men.

"Oh ho, the prince has come too. Should I go and tell Cui Yulu now that her war god prince has come to save her? She will be very happy to know, but she probably won't be happy right now."

"What exactly did you do to her?"

Zhao Qing saw Qiao Qiao and Gongsun Yu following closely behind him.

He knew in his heart that the two of them must have reached a consensus and joined forces with Fu Xiaoyu.

"Zhao Qing, release Cui Yulu immediately, and we can still save your life."

"Save me. I don't need anyone to save me now. The person I want doesn't want me. There's no point in me living anymore. I don't care if I lose my life."

Zhao Qing glanced at the sky; it was gradually getting dark.

The wolves over there in the cave will likely come out soon after smelling the blood, and then it will be difficult for Cui Yulu and her son to survive.

Thinking of this, he gave Fu Xiaoyu a meaningful look.

"Since you're all here, then enjoy the charm of this house. I won't bother you any longer."

As Zhao Qing was about to leave, Fu Xiaoyu was not about to give him the chance.

He leaped forward and pulled him back, pressing the dagger against his neck.

"Take me to Cui Yulu, or I'll kill you."

"Hmph, do you think I'm afraid you'll kill me? Anyway, Cui Yulu won't survive. Oh, I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear?"

Fu Xiaoyu applied force, and blood appeared on his neck.

"Tell me quickly where the rain and dew are."

"Let me tell you the good news first. You're going to be a father soon. Cui Yulu is about to give birth. The bad news is that there's no doctor available, and she might die."

After Zhao Qing finished speaking, he burst into laughter. Fu Xiaoyu couldn't stand his arrogant behavior any longer and plunged the dagger into his neck.

Zhao Qing clutched his neck and collapsed to the ground.

He stared wide-eyed at Fu Xiaoyu.

"Just wait to collect her corpse."

As he spoke, he gently pressed the button on his hand, smiled, and closed his eyes.

An Rou'er saw Zhao Qing fall to the ground and went over to hug him with heartache.

"Why can't you look at me? Why do you have to stare at someone who doesn't like you?"

"Someone come and take his body away to feed the dogs."

"Your Highness, I beg you not to do this. I can tell you where Cui Yulu is. Please leave his body to me, okay?"

An Rou'er pleaded desperately with Fu Xiaoyu.

I hope he can give Zhao Qing a complete burial.

"Speak quickly."

She is...

Before An Rou'er could finish speaking, a wolf howl came from the back mountain.

The sound terrified An Rou'er.

Only then did they realize that Zhao Qing had activated the mechanism before he died.

Those wolves were all starving wolves, and when they smelled blood, they would frantically search for and tear apart their prey.

"Hurry to the back mountain, Cui Yulu is giving birth there, those wolves will kill her."

But it would be too late to get to the back mountain now, as the wolves have already set out, and they are much faster than humans.

"Your Highness, come quickly! There's a secret passage here."

The speaker was none other than Lai Guitou.
