Chapter 299 Taking Revenge Personally
When Achig woke up, he saw the concerned looks on everyone's faces in the room.
He turned his head and saw his unconscious son.
The twelve-year-old boy was truly terrified after being chased and frightened along the way.
Achig closed his eyes, unable to say a word.
His mind was filled with images of his parents, his queen and concubines, and his brothers and sisters...
How could this happen...?
The guards who were responsible for picking up the person remained kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.
Just as the City Lord of Tianji City was about to offer some words of comfort, he saw Shen Huaichen shake his head.
"Let the prince rest for a while!"
We have important matters to discuss later.
"Gentlemen, please return to your quarters. Once His Highness has rested, I will send someone to invite you all!"
Seeing that Achig's eyes were still tightly closed, the city lords knew that there was no point in saying anything now, so they had no choice but to leave.
It seems this proactive operation will have to be postponed...
Once the city lords left, Achig opened his eyes.
"Tell me! What exactly happened?" Achig asked angrily.
Upon hearing this, the guard quickly explained what had happened.
Before the emperor's army even reached the border city, Aqige listened to Shen Huaichen's advice and sent his personal guards with men to the capital to fetch his family.
It went smoothly at the beginning.
Traveling along back roads, day and night, they finally arrived just as the dog emperor had left the capital...
Because the dog emperor had left the capital with his army, they easily entered the capital.
And one night, they secretly sneaked into the former residence of Prince Zhan.
After waking up the two elders, the princess, the concubine, the prince, and the princess, everyone set off overnight.
Knowing that this was the capital city, and that the emperor's spies were everywhere, they did not prepare carriages and made their masters ride horses.
As for the youngest prince, the guards, taking his age into consideration, placed him on their own horse.
Just as they were about to leave the city, their group was discovered by the Left Prime Minister's men.
The Northern Hu emperor personally led the expedition, leaving the Left Chancellor to guard the capital.
The Left Prime Minister specially sent someone to hide at Achig's residence.
Upon this discovery, the Left Prime Minister immediately sent men to hunt him down and even dragged out Achig's daughter, who was also his daughter-in-law.
Princess Achig broke down when she saw her heavily pregnant daughter being hung up.
He accidentally fell from his horse and was hacked to death by the Left Chancellor's men...
The guards no longer cared about the princess who had been killed; they wanted to deliver the rest of the people to Achig's side.
They finally managed to fight their way out of the capital.
At this point, only half of the people who had originally come out remained.
Although the guard felt sorry for the loss, he had a mission to fulfill and could not let his guard down.
They were getting closer and closer to Tianji City.
Before the guards could even breathe a sigh of relief, they ran into the group that Sasinlang had sent to arrest Achig's family...
Another fierce battle ensued.
The men Sassinlang sent were his own guards, not only strong in combat, but also ruthless killers.
Achig's side was clearly no match for them.
Seeing that they were outnumbered, Achig's parents, along with the remaining concubines and their other children, suddenly rode their horses toward a cliff.
Sassin's men hurriedly gave chase.
Sassin's men were tasked with capturing these men alive and bringing them to the front lines.
This is one way the emperor wants to control Achig.
Clearly, Archie's parents had considered this as well.
They cannot fall into Sassin's hands.
If he falls into Sasinlang's hands, not only will he die, but it will also affect Achig.
so......
Finally, after pushing Achig's concubine and their own children off the cliff, Achig's parents also jumped off the cliff in front of Sasinlang's guards...
The last remaining guard had no choice but to lead the young prince back to Tianji City via the mountain path...
......
After hearing what the guard said, Shen Huaichen didn't know what to say.
That damned emperor is no human being; he's got a lot of dirty tricks up his sleeve!
If those people fall into his hands, they will definitely be pushed to the front lines.
What should Achego do then? Attack or not?
"Your Highness..." Shen Huaichen didn't know how to persuade him.
He's good at fooling people, but he's really bad at comforting them!
"Your Highness, it's all my fault. If I hadn't suggested bringing your family here..."
"Sir, it's not your fault!"
"If we don't bring them here, by tomorrow morning at the latest, my family will probably be hanging in front of that dog emperor's army..." Achig said with difficulty.
Shen Huaichen wanted to say a few more words of advice, but then he heard two soft sobs.
He turned his head and saw that it was the young prince who had woken up.
He hurried over and pulled the young prince in front of Achig.
"This is your father!"
Achig gently touched the young prince's face; when he left the capital, this son was only nine years old...
“Burileg…I am your father!” Achig’s eyes were filled with tears.
The young prince, Burilege, nodded through his tears.
"My grandfather said that my father was the bravest hero of the Northern Hu, capable of fighting wolves on the grasslands."
"Father, you will avenge Grandpa and Mother, won't you?"
Achig nodded vigorously.
"Don't worry, Father will definitely avenge them."
I will take revenge myself!
"Mr. Du, inform the city lords to come and discuss the important matters tonight." Aqige looked at Shen Huaichen.
"Your Highness, would you like to postpone this for a day? You are currently..." Shen Huaichen still wanted to wait a while.
What if Achig acts impulsively in his current state?
The border city has fewer troops than the emperor's army, so we can't afford any mishaps.
Achig shook his head.
"No need! Tonight is fine!"
"I'm going to personally chop off that dog emperor's head!" Archie said through gritted teeth.
Having no other choice, Shen Huaichen had to send someone to summon the other city lords.
They discussed it until 9 PM, and finally settled everything.
At midnight, the gates of Tianji City suddenly and quietly opened.
Under the cover of night, squads of soldiers quietly left the city.
Sasinlang's army was three miles from Tianji City.
They probably didn't know that the gates of Tianji City had already been opened.
Seeing that the soldiers were all hidden.
The warhorses were also gagged!
Shen Huaichen stared intently into the distance from the city wall without blinking.
As small sparks slowly lit up Sasinlang's camp.
Just as the flames were growing into a towering inferno, a horn blast rang out from the Tianji City tower.
Achig was the first to stand up.
"Charge! Kill all these beasts!"
With Achig's angry shout, the army immediately rushed towards Sasinlang's camp.
