Ye Qiu stared at Yang Yun in utter astonishment: "How long have you been dried up?"
"It's mainly because you're so capable."
Yang Yun said shyly.
At this moment, Yang Yun seemed to have completely let go.
In front of Ye Qiu, she no longer felt ashamed and indignant, but was instead filled with endless anticipation and desire.
Ye Qiu looked at Yang Yun, and he could actually understand her feelings.
She was originally a young girl, but she was forced to marry the King of Zhongbei, an old man who was already over fifty years old.
Although she held the title of Princess, it was ultimately just a prestigious-sounding title with no real power.
In other words, the King of Zhongbei could satisfy all her material needs.
However, Zhongbei Wang was unable to provide for the spiritual emptiness and the most basic needs.
At this moment, facing Ye Qiu, a heaven-defying figure who doesn't even put the King of Zhongbei in his eyes, Yang Yun, who is close in age to Ye Qiu, will find it difficult to resist.
Seeing that Ye Qiu didn't respond for a long time, Yang Yun couldn't hold back any longer and forcefully pounced on Ye Qiu...
At the same time, at the Prince's Mansion!
Zhongbei Wang clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot.
Afterwards, Old Master Sun looked at the extremely irritable King Zhongbei and felt a little uneasy.
He had followed the King of Zhongbei for ten years and had never seen the King so grief-stricken and out of control.
"Old Master Sun, if I were to send 100,000 men to kill Ye Qiu, wouldn't the higher-ups say that I'm lawless?"
Zhongbei Wang's voice was slightly hoarse as he spoke.
Old Master Sun's expression froze, and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, let's not even talk about whether the higher-ups will have any objections to you, but in the current situation, it is absolutely not advisable to use force."
"Because the Princess and the Crown Prince are still in Ye Qiu's hands, especially the Crown Prince, who cannot be lost."
"Then I cannot continue to be manipulated by Ye Qiu like this."
Even the voice of the King of Zhongbei trembled slightly.
"Alas, Your Majesty, for now we can only reveal some information to Ye Qiu as we initially agreed. Otherwise, given that little beast's ruthless and decisive nature, the young master might really not survive. Earlier, someone threw the young master's ten toes at the gate of the palace, which was a blatant warning that he would really go all out to kill him."
Old Sun spoke earnestly.
Zhongbei Wang slammed his hand on the brand-new table, and the table broke apart with a crash.
"Once we recover from this, no matter the cost, I will make sure that little beast Ye Qiu dies a horrible death."
King Zhongbei gritted his teeth.
Immediately afterwards, the King of Zhongbei sent a message to Ye Qiu, expressing his willingness to exchange some true information for Yan Wudao to return home alive, on the condition that Ye Qiu personally escort Yan Wudao back to the palace.
As for Princess Yang Yun, the King of Zhongbei made no mention of her in the message.
After reading the message aloud, Ye Qiu also showed it to Yang Yun.
The astute Yang Yun understood Zhongbei Wang's decision from the text message.
The King of Zhongbei has already given up on her!
Even though she didn't love the Prince of Zhongbei, his heartlessness still chilled Yang Yun's heart.
Regardless of the circumstances, she only came out to kill Ye Qiu in order to help the King of Zhongbei.
But the King of Zhongbei didn't care about any of this!
Yang Yun, who had felt a little guilty for betraying the King of Zhongbei, felt no guilt at this moment.
"Just as I thought, he has nothing in his eyes but power and profit. I bet that if Yan Wudao threatens his position, he will not hesitate to abandon Yan Wudao."
Yang Yun said in a deep voice.
"It's not important," Ye Qiu said calmly. "Tomorrow I will take Yan Wudao and you to the Zhongbei Prince's Mansion to see if the Zhongbei Prince will reveal the truth from back then."
"Are you crazy?" Yang Yun said hurriedly. "If you go, he will definitely lay a trap and won't let you get away."
"I'm not afraid," Ye Qiu said. "If the King of Zhongbei weren't still alive, he would be dead long ago. I won't make a move tomorrow, but he certainly wouldn't dare to fight me."
"Why?"
Yang Yun was completely bewildered.
"You don't need to know too much."
As Ye Qiu spoke, he looked down and sent a message to Xiang Hu, instructing him on some matters that needed to be handled that very night.
...
The next day, early morning!
Dozens of media reporters gathered outside the Zhongbei Prince's Mansion.
"I heard that five years ago, under the control of Lord Zhongbei, a powerful Ye family in Qianzhou was wiped out. Is that true?"
"Please, Your Majesty, come out and tell us personally whether what happened five years ago really did occur?"
Media professionals rushed to ask questions.
Inside the Prince's mansion, the Prince of Zhongbei was furious and sent people to try to drive the reporters away. However, with the support of the Yulong Society, hundreds of people rushed up to protect the dozens of media reporters.
"You're not planning to take action against the media, are you?"
"The Prince of Zhongbei's Mansion is in such a hurry to kick people out, could it be that they really planned and launched a massacre back then?"
“You people of the Prince’s Palace, don’t keep people from knowing the truth. We have the right to know the truth.”
"If your Prince's Mansion dares to act recklessly, the whole world will know what kind of place the Zhongbei Prince's Mansion is, because right now, it's being broadcast live in its entirety." (tv.net)
Many people have spoken out one after another, stirring up trouble.
Of course, these people were actually members of the Imperial Dragon Society, disguised as onlookers.
This is what Ye Qiu asked Xiang Hu to do yesterday, and Xiang Hu did it very well.
The guards of the Prince's Palace originally intended to use force to drive away a group of media people, but seeing this situation, they hesitated and hurriedly went in to inform the Prince of Zhongbei.
Upon learning of all this, the King of Zhongbei could no longer sit still. He left his residence and went to the main gate.
As soon as the King of Zhongbei appeared, all the noise disappeared instantly.
He achieved nothing in the central and northern regions.
But given his status and position, whether they were members of the Imperial Dragon Society or media personnel, they still had a natural fear of the King of Zhongbei.
The King of Zhongbei stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes sharp. "I don't know who instigated you to cause trouble here, but I warn you that the laws of the Great Xia state that anyone who dares to cause trouble outside the Great Xia government offices will be imprisoned for life or killed without mercy."
The room fell silent upon hearing this!
Xiang Hu, hidden among the crowd, saw that his men seemed to be intimidated.
Thinking of Ye Qiu's terrifying nature, Xiang Hu gritted his teeth and said loudly, feeling somewhat guilty, "You are a king of your own right, and we should all respect you. However, you once instigated others to commit the crime of exterminating a clan. Your cruel actions have truly angered both heaven and man."
We just want to know, why did you order the extermination of the Ye family of Qianzhou five years ago?
"Yes, why?"
"A ruler of one region secretly annihilates an entire human race; it is truly hateful."
"Such a ruler, abusing his power for personal gain, is utterly despicable."
People at the scene mustered their courage to echo Xiang Hu, attracting even more onlookers.
Meanwhile, the media professionals who were live-streaming also broadcast the scene in real time, causing a huge sensation.
"Wang Zun, this is terrible! According to the information department, the total number of people watching this moment across all major live streaming platforms has exceeded three million, and the data is still growing wildly. It's...it's already boiling over."
A young man, his face ashen, ran up to report to the King of Zhongbei.
The King of Zhongbei's face darkened, and he finally began to panic...
