Chapter 159 Investigating the Truth



Seeing everyone shouting one after another, looking like they wouldn't let Shen Yunting search them no matter what.

Shen Yunting merely sneered and waved his hand, saying, "Your word doesn't count. If you dare to obstruct us again, you will be dealt with according to military law."

The generals looked at each other, and all of them saw panic in their eyes.

Shen Yunting coldly glanced at the crowd and snorted, "You should all know what Zhang Hu has done. Now he can't protect you either."

“We don’t understand what General Shen means by this.” The group avoided Shen Yunting’s gaze, and then continued, “In our opinion, General Shen, you just want to take advantage of Vice General Zhang’s accident to make a move against us.”

“Deputy General Zhang is currently seriously wounded on the battlefield, and his life hangs in the balance. How dare you attack us? Your intentions are utterly despicable. When we return to the capital, we will demand an explanation from the Emperor.”

In response, Shen Yunting bluntly said, "That depends on whether you can return to the capital."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned pale and stammered, unable to utter a word.

Shen Yunting remained silent, only saying, "You'd better not let this general find out who it is, otherwise..."

He snorted coldly, his tone dripping with threat.

The crowd's expressions grew increasingly grim; they could now guess what Shen Yunting was planning to do.

The next moment, a disheveled woman was dragged out of the tent.

She continued to hurl insults, saying, "What are you doing? Do you know whose woman I am? How dare you drag me out like this? Believe me, I'll kill you all."

She was very rude to the soldiers, pointing at them with her index finger as if she wanted to rush up and attack them.

But in the end, he didn't dare.

Looking at the quiet surroundings, the woman realized something was wrong. She finally focused her gaze on the crowd and quickly swayed her slender waist as she walked over.

She smiled and said, "Young General Yu, what's going on? I'm still waiting to serve you in the tent. What's all this fuss about?"

Yu Cheng was shocked by this scene. He hurriedly pulled the woman's hand off his body and looked at Shen Yunting with a look of fear.

He explained, "This humble general simply couldn't resist hiring a prostitute; it shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

"Such matters between men and women are most taboo in military camps, especially now that there is war. Do you think this is not a big deal?" Shen Yunting snorted coldly, his eyes filled with killing intent as he looked at the other party.

Yu Cheng grew increasingly panicked, but feigned composure and said, "This humble general was wrong. General Shen may punish me however you wish."

"General Shen?" The woman seemed to suddenly become interested, raising her eyes to look at Shen Yunting, a charming smile appearing on her lips.

"So this is the famous War God General. I have admired you for a long time, but I never expected to meet you today. General Shen is indeed as majestic as the rumors say. I admire you greatly."

After saying this, the woman pounced on Shen Yunting as if she had no bones, laughing coquettishly.

But Shen Yunting dodged to the side, and she fell to the ground, pouting in dissatisfaction.

She lay half-reclined on the ground, and with a gentle flick of her fingers, she lifted her clothes, revealing her fair and tender thighs.

With a captivating charm, she beckoned to Shen Yunting with her finger and said in a hoarse voice, "If I could serve General Shen even once in this life, I would gladly die for it."

Not far away, Qu Jingyun frowned, an unnamed fire surging in her heart.

Could this be the Yunniang that Lü Bo mentioned?

At this moment, Shen Yunting also spoke up and asked, "Are you Yunniang?"

Upon hearing this, Yunniang's face immediately showed an expression of being flattered.

She hurriedly replied, "That's right. I was once the most popular courtesan at Chunfeng Pavilion. I never expected that even General Shen would have heard of my reputation. I am truly fortunate."

Yunniang became increasingly excited, constantly throwing flirtatious glances at Shen Yunting.

If she could win the favor of the person in front of her, she would have someone to rely on for the rest of her life.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yunting spoke up at this moment and asked, "Do you know Lü Bo?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Cheng angrily rebuked Yunniang: "Don't talk nonsense, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Yunting kicked him in the knee, causing him to kneel down with cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

His eyes, which looked up at Yunniang, were filled with warning.

But Yunniang was completely unaware of this, and said to herself, "I know him, but he's just a fool. I can just say a few nice words to coax him and he'll give me ten thousand taels to redeem me. He'll do whatever I ask him to do."

"He's been pretty good to me, but he's a bit naive. He thought his meager salary would be enough to support me. What a joke."

She looked up at Shen Yunting and chuckled, saying, "Besides, compared to such a good-for-nothing, I value a great hero like General Shen much more."

As Shen Yunting listened to Yunniang's disparaging remarks about Lü Bo, he kept recalling how Lü Bo had defended Yunniang in his words.

If Lü Bo knew that Yunniang was actually this kind of person, I wonder how sad he would be.

Shen Yunting sighed softly, his eyes filled with coldness as he looked at Yunniang.

He sneered and said, "What exactly is going on between you, Lü Bo, and Zhang Hu? This general wants you to tell the truth, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Perhaps it was because Shen Yunting's killing intent was too obvious, Yunniang's body trembled involuntarily, and she no longer dared to be as frivolous as before.

He straightened his expression and told her everything that had happened.

It turns out that Yunniang and Lü Bo's first encounter was all orchestrated by Zhang Hu.

Zhang Hu ordered Yunniang to play the victim in front of Lü Bo, so that Lü Bo would ask Yunniang to be redeemed and raised in a nearby town.

Every time Lü Bo went to see Yunniang, it was as if they were living the life of an ordinary married couple, and Yunniang also put on the appearance of a virtuous wife and loving mother.

In reality, when Lü Bo was not around, their home was no different from the former brothel, with men coming and going at will, including Zhang Hu and the generals in front of them.

Only Lü Bo trusted Yunniang implicitly and even unintentionally revealed some information to her.

This time, Zhang Hu pretended to kidnap Yunniang after arriving at the border to threaten Lü Bo, and Lü Bo actually believed him.

While Lü Bo was agonizingly torn and nearly died, Yunniang was indulging in a life of pleasure and debauchery with her soldiers.

Hearing Yunniang's words, Shen Yunting was filled with hatred and gritted his teeth.

He looked coldly at Yunniang: "Lu Bo has treated you so well, how can you be so heartless?"

Yunniang curled her lip in disdain: "What's the use of him being good to me? No matter how much he gives me, it's just a pittance. I don't care about it. I'm the most beautiful courtesan in the brothel. I get the best of everything."

"Besides, I'm so attractive to men, why should I stay by his side? Isn't that ridiculous?"
