Chapter 207 Strategy
The door was closed and there were two stoves burning in the room, so it was quite warm. The food in his mouth was also taken out.
"You two damn things, let me out. When I take that position, I will promise you wealth and glory!" Yetuo thought that the two heavy cavalrymen would be tempted, but unexpectedly, they just looked at him with sneer.
He poured himself some water and drank it, feeling very angry. He was indeed worthy of being the heavy cavalry trained by Walida.
If he wants to succeed in instigating a rebellion, it will probably not be easy.
It's not that he can't succeed. As long as he is a human being, he will always have weaknesses. He can afford beauty, money, power, or all of them. He just doesn't believe in two heavy cavalrymen.
"I know that you were trained by Walida, but now that my father is seriously ill, my mother has the final say."
"Are you willing to stay at the border for the rest of your life and be ordered around by Walida?"
"As long as you help me escape, I will definitely promise you wealth and glory when I return to the Imperial City. Don't you want to be second to none and above everyone else?"
The two heavy cavalrymen said nothing, but their movements slowed down.
The corners of his mouth turned up, his eyes full of calculation.
As long as he is moved, he has hope of escaping.
"Can you really promise my two brothers wealth and glory?" One of the heavy cavalrymen put down his cup and looked at Yetuo and asked.
There was excitement in his eyes, and seeing this, Yetuo felt relieved.
Just as he was about to speak, the heavy cavalryman beside him grabbed the man's hand and said, "Brother Xiu!"
"You are crazy, are you really going to betray the King of the North Court?"
Brother Xiu looked at the heavy cavalryman who was speaking, and after a moment's silence, he said, "Batur, I am different from you. Your father is at least a fourth-rank military officer, but I come from a peasant family."
"If the Fifth Prince can really promise me wealth, honor and power, I will be willing to serve him even as his dog."
Batur stared at him in shock, then drew his sword and pointed it at Brother Xiu: "Brother Xiu, if you change your mind now, I can pretend that nothing happened."
"But if you really want to betray the King of the North Court, even if you saved my life in the past, I can only say sorry."
Brother Xiu stood up silently and drew his sword: "Batur, there is a saying in Southern Jin that goes, people die for money, and birds die for food."
After that, the two of them started fighting.
Yetuo took the opportunity to run out of the door, where Sogar and his men were waiting.
"Fifth Prince, let's go quickly. I have already made all the arrangements."
Yetuo held his arm tightly and asked with gritted teeth, "Where are Walida and the others? And that girl from Southern Jin, capture her for me. I want to take her back to the imperial city with me!"
"Fifth Prince, there is no time to delay. Although I ordered the innkeeper to drug them, the girl from Southern Jin is a miracle doctor. Even the plague can't stop her. If you stay too long, something bad will happen."
"As long as the green mountains remain, all the grudges will be repaid when you return to the imperial city. Are you still afraid that you can't take revenge?"
After hearing what Sogar said, Yetuo could only nod with gritted teeth.
"Let's go!" Sogar breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that he would kill the King of the North Courtyard and others.
Fortunately, he also knew that he was afraid of death and did not insist.
Sogar wanted to steal Yu Banxia's carriage, but the horse refused to obey, so he could only steal the one he was riding in.
As soon as they left, Walida and others were already standing in front of the door.
Xiu Ge and Batur were also there, and Ayali looked a little confused: "Master, Father, why did you two let Jiang Ye go?"
"Your father has his own decision. Kid, don't ask so many questions." Yu Banxia tapped her nose and said.
Ayali wrinkled her nose and didn't tell her.
Yu Banxia looked at her and smiled dotingly: "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but there are too many people and too many gossips."
"Master, Ayali understands." Hearing her say this, Ayali stopped hesitating and nodded obediently.
When she first saw Xiu Ge and Batur fighting, she really thought that Xiu Ge had betrayed his father, but she didn't know that the two were just acting.
"Let's go back to the private room first. It's freezing." Yu Banxia turned and walked towards the room, and the others followed behind him.
As soon as I sat down, the innkeeper walked in.
"King of the North Courtyard, there is nothing wrong with the food on the table, you can eat it without worry."
"You did a great job." Walida nodded.
The shopkeeper bowed respectfully and said, "It is all my duty. My king, you must avenge my princess."
This inn was originally owned by Ayali's mother. When Sogar found him and threatened him to drug him, the innkeeper immediately reported it to Walida.
After Walida found out, he immediately went to discuss it with Yu Banxia and the others.
Yu Banxia said it was just as he wished, and that’s how the following events happened.
When Sogar was driving the cart for Yetuo, he told Yetuo about his plan. However, due to time constraints, Sogar had no time to silence him.
Although it doesn't matter whether Xiu Ge or Batur lives, or whether Walida wakes up, it doesn't matter if the shopkeeper tells the truth.
At that time they had already left Yuncheng, and the snow was about to fall. Even if not for the princess's safety, they had to consider the safety of the Southern Jin miracle doctor.
Sogar calculated that Walida would not let anyone escape, so he gave him a mad pursuit.
All of this was within Yu Banxia's calculations. Walida said in a deep voice, "You don't have to tell me. I will also avenge the princess. You can go down first!"
"Yes." The shopkeeper responded and walked out.
Walida looked at Yu Banxia and said, "Sister Banxia, what should we do next?"
"We will return to the Imperial City by water. Snow and wind will soon fall today. We are seriously injured now and need medical treatment. It seems that we have escaped, but it was just a feint."
"They must be hiding in Cloud City right now, and will not take action until the wind and snow stop."
"Otherwise, without supplies and fleeing, how can we safely drag him back?"
"Could it be that they brought back a corpse?"
After listening to Yu Banxia's analysis, Walida understood instantly.
"Sister Banxia wants this prince to return to the imperial city first and wait until everything is settled. Even if that is delayed, everything will be over."
Yu Banxia nodded, and Walida looked at Yu Banxia with admiration.
"Or maybe Brother Walida doesn't want to sit in that position?" Yu Banxia looked at him and asked with a smile.
Walida just smiled and didn't hypocritically say that she didn't want to.
"Brother Walida, I am a selfish person and a businessman, although you have now signed a truce agreement with my uncle."
"But, a new emperor chooses new ministers. Only when that position is with you can I feel at ease."
"Otherwise, how can we talk about a truce and eternal brotherhood?"
Walida looked into her eyes, full of admiration, and then laughed, "Hahaha, sister, aren't you afraid that I will regret it when I take that position in the future?"
"You won't, and I have hostages, don't I?" Yu Banxia also smiled and glanced at Ayali who looked confused.
Walida also looked at his daughter, and seeing her silly look, he shook his head in amusement.
