Chapter 60: Never Let Him Run Away Again
Xiao Yuheng hummed lightly in response, and the three of them stood up immediately.
Zhang Dayong was surprised to see Shen Yue there, so he leaned over to her and whispered, "Director, are you back from your mission?"
"Um."
Shen Yue coughed uncomfortably and said seriously:
"The prince ordered me to secretly investigate the missing girl's case, and here I am, right here."
Hearing this, Zhang Dayong and Bai Yunfei showed expressions of admiration.
Zhang Dayong: "Director, you single-handedly figured this out so quickly? So impressive, so awesome!"
Bai Yunfei: "I told you, the Director is a role model for our entire Shadow Guard Division!"
Chang Feng on the side couldn't help but roll his eyes, "It's obviously a defection..."
"Long wind!"
Xiao Yuheng frowned and glared at him, and Changfeng quickly shut up.
Song Minzhi, who was standing opposite, saw them chirping around and not taking him, the enemy, seriously at all. He was so angry that his nose was surging:
"Shut up! Do you think my Pinxiang Villa is a market? Come, take them down!"
"I want to see who dares!"
Xiao Yuheng said in a deep voice and took a step forward. His cold eyes swept across everyone's faces. The guards present suddenly felt that the surroundings were a little colder, and their hands holding the knives loosened a lot.
"Twenty-two years ago, the Black Hawk Army crushed the Western Liao Dynasty. What a glorious sight! Now, someone has abandoned their country, deserted the barracks, disguised themselves, and come to Paradise Island to aid the tyrants in their evil deeds!
"Did you know that the twenty girls captured were all from Sifang City? As you accomplices to the evil, have you ever considered that the same fate might one day befall your sisters and daughters?"
Upon hearing this, the guards lowered their heads in shame.
Someone said indignantly: "Your Majesty, we don't want this to happen either. We were forced to do this by General Song!"
"Bullshit!"
Song Minzhi was not happy when he heard this and raised his hand to punch him.
But suddenly a gust of black wind blew, and before Song Minzhi could make a move, he was slapped in the face first.
Immediately afterwards, he received a heavy blow from behind his knee, his legs went limp, and he fell to his knees with a thump.
Shen Yue quickly twisted his arms a few times, folded them behind his back, and then winked at Zhang Dayong.
"Tied."
"Hey!" Zhang Dayong walked forward happily, pulled off Song Minzhi's belt and tied him up tightly.
The whole process happened extremely quickly. By the time Song Minzhi reacted, he had already been tied up like a dumpling.
Seeing that the guards had no intention of coming to rescue him, he couldn't help but get angry and embarrassed.
"Are you all dead? Come quickly..."
Before he could utter the words "save me", a shiny dagger was already in front of him and quickly cut off his tongue.
Seeing the pink and white piece of flesh falling on the grass in front of him, Song Minzhi opened his mouth in despair, screaming with his eyes wide open, but he could no longer make a sound.
Seeing this, the people around covered their mouths in fear.
Yongan and the girls were protected by Bai Yunfei and could not see what was happening. They could not help but ask, "What happened?"
Bai Yunfei suppressed his nausea and frowned, "Princess, you don't want to know..."
Shen Yue calmly walked to Xiao Yuheng and knelt in front of him.
"Your Highness, the trafficker has been apprehended. He was too noisy, so I told him to shut up."
"Well done." Xiao Yuheng looked at her with admiration.
It has been less than a month since Song Minzhi last broke into the palace. Shen Yue's internal strength and skills have improved a lot, even to the point of crushing Song Minzhi. He was right about her.
"Your Highness, what should we do with Song Minzhi and the Black Hawk Army?" Changfeng stepped forward and asked.
Xiao Yuheng was silent for a moment, then spoke coldly, "Song Minzhi will be executed on the spot, and the Black Hawk Army will deal with him according to military law."
Chang Feng was about to obey the order when Ye Sanniang's voice came from a distance: "You can't kill him!"
The guards made way for her upon hearing the noise, and then Ye Sanniang came over with the remaining dozen or so guests.
"Paradise Island does not belong to any country. Your Highness King Cheng has no right to capture anyone on this island, let alone kill anyone!"
Guests from Western Liao and Northern Chu also echoed, "That's right, it's none of your business!"
Ye Sanniang's eyes swept over the guards.
"Two hundred men against a few people, what are you afraid of? Are you stupid? Why don't you go over and chop them all up!"
The guards were a little shaken when they heard this, but no one dared to step forward.
After all, the person in front of him is the Seventeenth Prince of Daqi, His Majesty's half-brother. If he makes a move, there will be no turning back.
Seeing this, Shen Yue couldn't help but sneered:
"Ye Sanniang is indeed a courageous person, having followed the old marquis. Paradise Island is indeed a no-man's land, but Song Minzhi is a general of the Qi State, the Black Hawk Army is composed of Qi soldiers, and the captured girls are Qi citizens. Do you think my prince can or cannot intervene?"
When the words "my prince" were mentioned, she clearly saw a faint smile appear on Xiao Yuheng's stern face.
Tsk, what a tsundere monster.
She muttered inwardly, then continued, "As for two hundred men versus a few, that's even more impossible to say. Am I right, dear Captain of the Guards?"
Upon hearing this, Changfeng curled the corners of his lips slightly.
"Yes. Some think we are outnumbered. Do you agree, brothers?"
"I disagree!" A firm and uniform voice came from the darkness.
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of dark shadows emerged like ghosts from the rooftops, behind the walls, between the treetops, and in the grass, tightly surrounding everyone at the scene.
Their eyes were as sharp as hawks, and the long swords in their hands shone coldly in the night. The guards couldn't help but gasp when they saw this.
It turned out that there were so many people on the other side. Fortunately, they didn't take action just now. If they had, their heads would have been separated from their bodies by now.
Seeing the situation turn rapidly, the guests also began to retreat.
The shadow guards did not give them a chance to escape, but scared them back with a swipe of their swords.
A masked Western Liao man stroked his trembling chest and shouted, "Prince Daqi, do you know that killing civilians of another country without authorization is tantamount to declaring war?"
"Then do you know that abusing the people of another country is tantamount to declaring war?"
Xiao Yuheng glanced at him with disdain and said to Changfeng:
"These Tartars came to Paradise Island today to seek pleasure, but unfortunately encountered a wave on the way and perished en masse."
Chang Feng bowed his head respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will ensure that they die in the water without a single wound."
Upon hearing this, the guests turned pale with fright and knelt down to beg for mercy.
The shadow guards would not listen to their nonsense and dragged the man away.
"Your Highness, what should we do with Ye Sanniang and the guests from Qi State?"
Changfeng continued to ask, but saw that his prince was a little absent-minded, his eyes quickly scanning the surroundings, as if he was looking for something.
Until he saw the figure in servant's clothes leap out of the high wall not far away.
"Throw them all down together!"
He hurriedly said something, stepped on the ground, and leaped up like lightning. In the blink of an eye, he flew to the wall and disappeared.
This time, he must not let him get away again!
