After Dugu Xin left, Shangguan Lingyun looked at Dugu Rui with a smile.
"Come here, take Prince Dayu and the rest of the people away."
"General Ye, we in Daxia do not keep useless people, and we will never give away food for free."
"If Dayu's soldiers are willing to do some menial work, they will be given a meal. Otherwise, they will be left hungry."
"As for Prince Dayu, if he refuses to work, then just give him some water to drink. As long as he doesn't die, that's all."
"I believe that after the Third Prince returns, he will notify Emperor Dayu as soon as possible to replace him."
"If even Emperor Dayu has given up on him, then we don't need to care about his life or death."
Dugu Rui's body shook, and he was taken away with two whimpers.
After everyone left, Ye Pengcheng looked at the barracks full of food and was immediately overjoyed.
"Your Highness is wise. He easily exchanged so much food for it and even captured Prince Dayu alive."
"But Your Highness, if we exchange this Prince Dayu back, will he instigate Emperor Dayu to attack us again?"
Shangguan Lingyun looked at Ye Pengcheng with a faint smile, which made Ye Pengcheng a little dazed.
After a long while, Shangguan Lingyun finally spoke.
"Of course, things need to be exchanged. As for people, as long as we ensure that they are sent back alive, that's fine."
"As for whether he can survive after returning, that depends on his own ability."
Ye Pengcheng immediately understood what he meant, and Ye Rong happily praised Shangguan Lingyun.
"Your Highness is wise. Although there was no bloodshed in today's battle, it was still very satisfying."
"Your Highness, I wonder if you would do me the honor to invite your Highness to drink."
Ye Pengcheng patted Ye Rong and said, "You little bastard, you've just won two battles and you're already so arrogant."
Ye Rong laughed heartily, "Dad, we've already captured Prince Dayu, and now the Third Prince is following us..."
Before Ye Rong could finish speaking, Ye Pengcheng went up and kicked him.
"Shut up! I'll kick you to death if you keep talking nonsense."
Ye Rong was kicked and seeing that Ye Pengcheng was about to kick him again, he immediately rushed to Shangguan Lingyun.
"Father, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still alive. How can you be so arrogant? Besides, what I said is the truth."
"His Royal Highness hasn't said anything yet, so how do you know he won't show his favor?"
Seeing Ye Rong hiding behind Shangguan Lingyun, Ye Pengcheng did not dare to chase him anymore. He just looked at Shangguan Lingyun with an embarrassed look.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. This brat has been spoiled by me. I will take him away immediately to avoid disturbing your Highness's peace."
Shangguan Lingyun saw Ye Pengcheng speak, thought for a moment, and then spoke to the two of them.
"General Ye, the Second Young Master is right. Since we have won the battle, we must reward the soldiers."
"However, it is too late today. In order not to disturb the soldiers' rest, the reward will be scheduled for tomorrow evening."
"It just so happens that I have some matters to discuss with you two. Tomorrow evening, I will host a banquet in the grand tent. I hope you two will be able to attend."
Shangguan Lingyun gave the order directly without discussing it with the two of them. Ye Pengcheng had nothing to say and had to agree.
Ye Rong looked at Ye Pengcheng with a chuckle and said, "Dad, look, His Highness could have won without any effort."
"You should learn from this character of being able to reward or punish people."
Ye Pengcheng looked at Ye Rong with gritted teeth.
"I think you're just itching for trouble. Just wait for me. Once you leave the prince's tent, I'll give you a good beating."
After Ye Pengcheng finished speaking, he went out to arrange the remaining captives and tomorrow's banquet.
Seeing him leave, Ye Rong said goodbye to Shangguan Lingyun somewhat embarrassedly.
After Ye Rong left, Wang Xiao glanced at Shangguan Lingyun.
"Your Highness, the Ye family father and son are singing the same tune, and it seems that they have something to say."
Shangguan Lingyun nodded and said, "You go down first. Send someone to watch Prince Dayu and don't let him escape."
Wang Xiao nodded and then walked out, while Shangguan Lingyun frowned slightly.
The Ye family father and son had something to say to him, and he also happened to have something he wanted to test the father and son with, so this wine was exactly what he wanted.
On the other hand, after Dugu Xin brought all the captives back, he began to win over the hearts of the people.
"Soldiers, I know you've all been frustrated in this battle, but the responsibility this time doesn't lie with you."
"The Crown Prince knew that most of you were suffering from the epidemic, but instead of providing you with timely treatment, he forcibly attacked Daxia."
"In the face of repeated schemes, they still refused to repent, which led to the current situation."
"So, you don't have to blame yourselves. Of course, this prince will not ignore the crown prince."
"However, a country cannot be without a king for a day, and a military camp cannot be without a commander forever."
"So, from now on, this prince will temporarily take over this place. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask."
After Dugu Xin finished speaking, he stopped talking. The fifty thousand soldiers looked at each other, and no one spoke.
Seeing that they had no objection, Dugu Xin asked the people from the No. 1 Manor in the World to move all the herbs out.
"In the next few days, we must first treat all patients."
"This is the antidote that this prince went through great pains to obtain from Daxia."
"From now on, all soldiers who are not sick will be responsible for brewing the antidote."
"Other sick soldiers will be assigned to different camps according to the severity of their illness."
"Although it's too late today, in order to prevent widespread infection among the soldiers, all patients will be reassigned to the barracks immediately."
