Xi Wujue flinched in fright and lowered his head. He realized that the woman in front of him was a pervert.
Meanwhile, Ouyang Fu was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, even his breathing was cautious, for fear of being discovered by this woman! He realized that none of Han Luoxue's family members were easy to deal with, and her younger sister was even more ruthless than her.
"Second sister, don't show favoritism!"
Just as Ouyang Fu was trying to make herself less noticeable, a crisp voice rang out, making her so angry that she wanted to sew that person's mouth shut.
Sure enough, Han Luoyu's gaze shifted from Xi Wujue to her, and Ouyang Fu hurriedly shook his head in fright: "No, no need!"
Her objections were ineffective; Han Luoyu had already slowly walked over. She still held her needle case in her hand as she approached Ouyang Fu.
Just as she reached for the needle, Han Mengze grabbed the branding iron from the fire pit, ran to her sister's side, and said with an innocent smile, "Sister, you're just one step away!"
"They are good brothers, even though they are from different countries. It is said that good brothers should share hardships and joys. They can't be any less than that!"
Han Luoyu nodded, her smile widening: "This is our former crown prince, we should take care of him!"
Ouyang Fu felt his scalp tingle. He opened his mouth to beg for mercy, but a burning smell hit him and made him scream in pain.
So that's how much it hurts. No wonder Xi Wujue screamed so miserably just now.
Ouyang Fu broke out in a cold sweat; he wished he could faint right then and there.
"That's more like it!"
The little guy clapped his hands in satisfaction. Han Luoyu took out silver needles and was about to use them when Zhou Yuan strode over. Looking at Ouyang Fu, who was disheveled and covered in blood, he sneered, "Ouyang Fu, when you attacked my cousin back then, did you think about today?"
"It's a pity we didn't kill you last time! You escaped and have been living freely for so long. Who do you think will save you this time?"
"The retired emperor in the palace? Sorry, he's no longer involved in affairs. He spends his days in the palace enjoying his grandchildren, living a very happy life. I wonder if he still remembers you, the former crown prince?"
Ouyang Fu, who was already in excruciating pain and feeling like he was dying, now felt pain in his heart. This was the epitome of killing someone by destroying their spirit.
"Zhou Yuan!"
Ouyang Fu raised his head, his eyes bloodshot, staring hatefully at Zhou Yuan. He hated himself even more now. If he had known this would happen, he should have wiped out all of Ouyang Zhen's relatives when he disappeared. It was difficult to deal with the old general, but the Zhou family was just a group of merchants; killing them would be quite easy.
It's all his fault for being too soft-hearted back then, always thinking that the small Zhou family was nothing to fear, and now...
"Heh, Ouyang Fu, you probably wish you could kill me now, right? But too bad, you probably won't have that chance again!"
Ouyang Fu felt even more hatred. If he had a chance to do it all over again, he would never let the Zhou family or Ouyang Zhen off the hook.
He will exhaust all his strength to exterminate them!
Ah, another shrill scream rang out. It turned out that while the two were talking, Han Luoyu had taken a branding iron and slapped Ouyang Fu again.
After being hit in the stomach twice, Ouyang Fu could no longer bear the pain and finally fainted.
Is it really that easy? Just as he fainted, Ouyang Fu was jolted awake by the pain. A bucket of salt water was poured over him, and Ouyang Fu almost died on the spot.
Unfortunately, he had three children with medical skills by his side. If they saw something was wrong, they would give him acupuncture, and he wouldn't be able to die even if he wanted to.
Zhou Yuan didn't make any further moves. He took a few steps back and came to Han Luoxue's side again. Han Mengze and Xu Shen also came forward to help. The three little ones had a great time playing.
Meanwhile, outside the camp, Ouyang Zhen's face was ashen.
Seeing the smoke rising from the opposite side, he hurriedly gathered his men and led them to provide support.
He asked why the number of people, which was 200,000, had suddenly decreased by more than half.
Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Xiyao Kingdom had two plans in mind, and the Crown Prince was not the only one in charge of the military camp.
When they discovered that the Crown Prince was acting strangely, another general led most of his troops to bypass the main force and attack their camp. The current situation on the western border is still unknown.
"Go and inform the Empress to bring her people here immediately!"
Before leaving, Ouyang Zhen didn't forget to give him a final word of advice.
He would only feel at ease if Han Luoxue stood by his side. The emperor of Xiyao Kingdom was cunning and treacherous, and they had to be careful.
As for the nearly 100,000-strong army, Ouyang Zhen's expression turned cold. These people deserved to die! Last time he was too soft-hearted, this time…
Before Ouyang Zhen could speak, General Xu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, let them lead the charge!"
“This…” Ouyang Zhen hesitated for a moment, but then he thought that even the emperor of Xiyao Kingdom did not take them seriously, so why should he cherish them?
"allow!"
Han Luoxue, who was still in the dungeon, was stunned when she heard the news.
"What did you say? They attacked?"
Something's not right here. Not to mention Han Luoxue, even Xi Wujue was shocked.
"Your Majesty, His Majesty sensed something was amiss from the beginning. They claimed to have 200,000 troops here, but when they took a count, there were less than 100,000—more than half of them were missing. His Majesty ordered an investigation, but before they could find anything, disaster struck!"
Han Luoxue felt a wave of relief; thankfully, her sister and the others had run over, otherwise…
Her mind would become even more uneasy. However, there were still many soldiers there, a good 40,000 to 50,000, while the Western Yao Kingdom had 100,000. With both sides at war, they probably wouldn't be able to break through anytime soon. As for her own side…
The Emperor didn't bring many people with him, so these people are in greater danger!
Han Luoxue's expression turned cold. The Emperor and his entourage had arrived with minimal entourage; this portion of the troops...
"Sister, really?" Han Luoyu couldn't believe it either, and she didn't even care about tidying up Xi Wujue anymore.
"How could Father Emperor do that?"
Xi Wujue couldn't believe it either. He was still in Ouyang Zhen's hands. Was his father abandoning him completely? Last time he was arrested, his good father wasn't very helpful. He never expected his father to go even further this time!
Xi Wujue's face turned dark.
"Your good father has also placed another general in your army. If anything happens to you, he will take as many men as possible to carry out the operation!"
Xi Wujue's face was deathly pale. At this moment, there was nothing he didn't understand. He had been completely abandoned! Not now, but from the very beginning, his father had made two preparations.
If his father had even a shred of pity for him, wouldn't he have been able to rescue him with over 100,000 troops when he learned of his predicament? Instead, he didn't even do that and directly ordered that man to attack the western border.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor demands your presence immediately, right now!"
Han Luoxue nodded. This time, she was going to bring her younger brother and sister, as well as these two people, along with them!
She left first, unaware of how anxious Ouyang Zhen was.
