People always have to pay a price for their choices. Su Chenyu will let Rongxue live forever and watch her lose everything she once had.
"Rongxue, you have always been yearning for someone who doesn't belong to you, but you have ignored the person who wants to protect you the most." Su Chenyu's tone was filled with a hint of sarcasm, "You are the stupidest person."
Rongxue hugged Yunyan, the person she had looked down upon the most in the past, and cried heartbreakingly. She seemed to be beginning to regret it, but it was too late.
Xuan Ling and Zhu Yi led Dayu's soldiers and rushed directly into the palace. They walked up to Su Chenyu and reported, "Your Majesty, the situation outside has been controlled."
After they finished talking, they looked up and saw Baili Yanqing standing next to Su Chenyu, with a look of surprise on his face. They were a little hesitant to confirm: "Your Majesty, what is this?"
Without waiting for Su Chenyu to answer, Baili Yanqing spoke first: "It's me."
Hearing this, Zhu Yi's eyes filled with tears. In the past six years, everyone thought that Baili Yanqing was dead, and only Su Chenyu believed that he was still alive.
In order not to make Su Chenyu sad, everyone kept silent about the word "death" and just thought that he had left temporarily.
Everyone hoped that Baili Yanqing could come back, but except for Su Chenyu, no one thought that he could come back alive.
At this moment, seeing Baili Yanqing standing in front of them alive, Zhu Yi and Xuan Ling were both excited: "You are finally here."
Baili Yanqing walked up to the two of them, stretched out his hand, and patted their shoulders: "Zhu Yi, thank you for your hard work over the years."
"This is what my subordinates should do." Zhu Yi has been staying by Su Chenyu's side all these years because he knows that what Baili Yanqing wants is Su Chenyu's safety.
"Six years have passed in a blink of an eye, and you seem much more mature than before." Baili Yanqing looked at Xuan Ling. When he left, Xuan Ling was still a teenager. Now when he saw him again, Xuan Ling had grown up and could stand on his own.
Xuan Ling smiled and said, "Back then, you and Your Majesty went through so much hardship to bring me to Miaojiang, otherwise I would be a useless person now."
"It's your own fault." Baili Yanqing felt relieved. Fortunately, during the time he was away, there was still someone to replace him and stay with Su Chenyu.
Wutong and Yinxing also saw Baili Yanqing, but they did not approach him. Tears welled up in their eyes. His Majesty had suffered so much in the past few years. Now, the time has finally come for him to finally have a happy ending...
This time, Su Chenyu directly captured the Queen of Nanyue, Rongxue. All local officials surrendered without a fight, and those who resisted stubbornly were also directly defeated by Xuan Ling and Zhu Yi.
But Su Chenyu knew that all the officials in the court were hypocritical. How to make them truly submit in the shortest possible time posed a difficult problem.
"Your Majesty, someone in the city has found Xingye's whereabouts." Wutong came to report Xingye's situation, "Should we arrest him directly?"
Su Chenyu thought for a moment and said, "I'd better go there myself. You may not be able to catch Xingye."
Su Chenyu and Xingye had fought each other before. It was not easy for this person to escape from himself and Baili Yanqing.
As night fell, a broken ox cart loaded with slop drove towards the city gate.
Normally, the city gates should have been closed at this time, but the ox carts transporting swill could only leave the city at night, so soldiers would open the city gates for them.
However, the driver of the swill transported today was not Old Bullhead. The soldiers patrolling the city looked at the young man in the bamboo hat several times, but they still couldn't see his appearance clearly: "Where is Old Bullhead?"
"Old Bullhead has been feeling unwell these past few days. I'm his nephew, so I'm going to run this errand for him today."
The swill smelled strong, and the soldiers had no intention of staying any longer, so they quickly opened the door and told him to leave the city quickly.
It was only when the city gate was opened that the young man discovered that Xuan Ling and his soldiers were guarding outside the city gate, as if they were waiting for his arrival.
At this moment, the young man could no longer care about anything else. He got off the ox cart and was about to run towards the city. However, after he had run a few steps, he found that Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing personally brought people to block his way.
With people in front and behind, Xingye knew he couldn't escape. He took off his bamboo hat and looked at Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing with a gloomy face: "I am honored that you two came out in person to catch me!"
