——Yang Guan stood up at the lower left of His Highness and kicked Xie Xun in the chest.
The man was kicked and slid backward, and several of the hemp ropes tied to his body broke. Oh, now he was brought back by the guards.
The subordinate groups all cheered in their hearts, and Zuo Yue also laughed out loud without concealing his feelings.
"Whether Lou Shao lets me go or not is my business. Mingyu just needs to know that I may not let you go." Ji Wan stared at Xie Xun sarcastically, knowing in his heart that he would definitely not accept it.
But it doesn't matter if he is not convinced. She has already used the resources, strategies, command abilities, etc. in her hands to slap Xie Xun in the face. Now the enemy has become a prisoner and can do nothing but talk nonsense in helplessness and anger.
Even if she killed Xie Xun, no one could blame her.
I was just about to say, "If you do something for me, I will spare your life."
As a result, Xie Xun vomited a mouthful of blood, gritted his teeth and suddenly said: "Ahem, Ji Wan, you bitch, if you have the ability, just kill me without caring about the Xie family!" The bright red blood flowed between his snow-white teeth, and finally splashed down to the ground with his angry tone.
Xie Xun knew that Ji Wan would not let him go today, so he might as well use the Xie family to anger Ji Wan and give him a quick death!
The two soldiers behind him held down the struggling Xie Xun in a very rough manner.
This man was struggling all the time and couldn't calm down at all. He was a scholar dressed in luxurious clothes, but he struggled with great strength.
They were forced to use some force to restrain him.
What a disgusting threat! Ji Wan pouted and said, "Since you say so, I'll really do it for Xie's sake..."
Hearing this, Xie Xun couldn't help but show a trace of contempt on his face. As expected, no one could help but fear the authority of the Xie family: "Heh..."
"Kill you!" Ji Wan held her cheeks and smiled, but sentenced Xie Xun to death in her heart.
Yang Guan thought to himself, "As expected, His Highness has always hated aristocratic families like the Cui family. This Xie Xun actually wants to use the Xie family to threaten His Highness and get a quick death. He is really too naive."
Your Highness was more skilled and defeated Xie Xun. If he had been more honest, given Your Highness's kind and soft-hearted character, he would have let him go. Even if he was imprisoned for life, he would not die. However, this person still touched Your Highness's reverse scale.
All I can say is that Xie Xun’s death was not unjust.
By the time Lou Shao led his troops back to Ji Wan's tent to reunite, it was already dawn.
The wind was blowing coldly and the weather was gloomy. It was a short day without snow, but the wind blew the snow everywhere, making it almost as if it were snowing.
"I, Lou Shao, greet Her Royal Highness Princess Yongkang. May Her Royal Highness live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!" Lou Shao's appearance was different from Gong Xu's delicate appearance. Instead, he looked like Tuoba Feng with the ruggedness of the Northern Rong Kingdom.
Because of the wind and snow outside, a lot of snowflakes had fallen on his armor and had not melted yet.
"Hurry up, Lou Qing. If it weren't for you, this battle would have been much more difficult for me." Ji Wan personally helped up Lou Shao who was kneeling on the ground.
"Your Highness has strange methods. Even without me, you will be able to easily capture the son of Xie." Lou Shao respectfully praised Ji Wanshang.
He also brought back Yao Cheng, a follower of the Xie family.
Of course, the person was kidnapped and brought back. The first thing Yao Cheng said when he saw Ji Wan was a blunt question: "My Lord... Mr. Mingyu has been killed by you?"
"Yes." Ji Wan picked up a piece of noodles that Yang Guan had brought her for breakfast and replied without hesitation. She had killed the man, so there was no need to lie.
Seeing the man's expression filled with sorrow, Ji Wan couldn't help but say indifferently, "Why, you want to go down and accompany your master? Your master is even wondering if you've betrayed him!"
Yao Cheng fell silent for a moment, his eyes filled with complex emotions that Ji Wan couldn't understand.
Ji Wan only knew that in ancient times, many people considered loyalty and righteousness more important than their lives.
The first thing this person did when he saw her was not to ask for help in saving his life, but to ask his good master first. After listening to her, he looked like he had lost his soul and probably would not bow his head to her.
This person has lost all desire to live.
Ji Wan raised her chin towards Zuo Yue who was beside Yao Cheng, and asked Zuo Yue to throw her sword on the ground. "Work for me, or go down to accompany your master. Choose one."
After Ji Wan finished speaking, the air was silent for a while.
"My master is dead. If you were a man, I would still consider it. But it is absolutely impossible for me, Yao Cheng, to be subservient to a wicked woman like you in the future!" Yao Cheng responded to Ji Wan's words in a firm tone and with a resolute expression.
The atmosphere in the tent became very solemn.
With an indifferent smile, Ji Wan's gaze slowly fell on the sword in front of Yao Cheng.
But a moment later, a "plop" sound was heard, and the strong smell of blood instantly filled every corner of the tent.
Ji Wan closed his eyes, then ordered in a cold voice: "Take them away and send his body and Xie Xun's body to the Xie family. Tell them not to try to get their hands on the Stone City that already belongs to me! This is a warning."
The opponent who wanted to snatch the Stone City from her was dead, and Ji Wan finally rubbed her brows in relief.
The tent was surrounded by Ji Wan's subordinates.
Including the newly joined Lou Shao.
Lou Shao was just a butcher's son. Later, because the butcher's meat stall smelled strong in the summer, he was despised and driven away by the nobleman's guards.
The butcher was indignant, but there was nothing he could do. He just muttered a few words, which angered the nobleman and he was beaten half to death by the guards around him.
The nobleman, who enjoyed torturing people, burned his face with fire until it was unrecognizable, and the nobleman also cut off the flesh on his body piece by piece with a knife for fun.
Lou Shao was standing by at the time, being forced by the nobleman to witness the entire process.
If Xiling Mingyue had not arrived in Donglin Kingdom at the beginning of the month, witnessed this injustice, and revealed his identity to rescue the man, the butcher would have died beside his meat stall long ago.
It was thanks to Xiling Mingyue who rescued the person that we have the current Lou Shao.
Ji Wan was fourteen years old. Lou Shao wasn't much older either, only ten years older. Twenty-four was considered young and middle-aged, even in ancient times, it was considered just the age of coming of age.
If Xiling Mingyue had not saved Lou Shao's father, Lou Shao would probably have been treated as a plaything and toyed to death by the nobleman.
So after Lou Shao entered the court as an official through Xiling Mingyue's operation, he often sent his wife, a female medical officer, to the cold palace to keep Xiling Mingyue company.
Coincidentally, Xiling Mingyue told Ji Wan that every time Lou Shao's wife came, it was when Ji Wan was asleep, so Ji Wan didn't know that this cavalry general was also his mother's man.
Thinking of this, Ji Wan narrowed his eyes. Something was wrong.
Ever since my mother became pregnant, she moved to the cold palace.
