A few days later, Liang Jing received news again from the Great Zhou court, that is, Lu Yun may have left successfully.
Although he took the barbarian princess with him before leaving, it was good enough as long as he could leave.
Liang Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief. Why did he have to take a burden, a nuisance, with him when he left Sun City? What was the reason?
She really couldn't figure out what was going on with Xiao Yunzi.
As for Lu Yun, after leaving Sun City, he hurried to Golden City. Naturally, Sun City also received the news of the Barbarian King's death.
Everyone knows that the new Barbarian King is the Third Prince, whom everyone has always distrusted.
Du Ruofu is now in power, and no one can shake his power.
Zhao Youqian, the lord of the Golden City and a descendant of the golden bloodline, knew that this matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
It is definitely not as rumored that Lu Yun did it alone.
Or maybe he didn't do it at all. Anyway, this matter is quite strange.
Golden City.
Just as Zhao Youqian was wondering about this, his son Asar suddenly walked in and said, "Dad, I heard that the princess is holding a martial arts competition to find a husband. There's news!"
"The princess is so beautiful, yet she's holding a martial arts competition to find a husband. Why doesn't she let me go? If I go, I'll definitely be able to marry her."
"Wouldn't it be nice for us to join forces like this?"
"Also, why did you hide it from me?"
Zhao Youqian couldn't help but roll his eyes and explained, "You think this is just a child's play. First of all, our Golden Family and the Sun Family are united.
They are incompatible and will not be accepted by them."
"Besides, do you think you can really win this martial arts competition with your strength?"
"You're just going to embarrass your father."
Asar smiled awkwardly, "Dad, no one can compare to me."
"Alright, this happened a long time ago. The fact that Lu Yun was able to become the princess's husband shows his ability."
"Ah? Who is Lu Yun?"
“…”
Zhao Youqian had nothing good to say about his silly son.
It's really silly and cute.
At the same time, three young men and women came out of the Golden City. They looked cautious. The leader was a woman who kept looking around.
"We've finally arrived at the Golden City."
"However, we can't let too many people know about our arrival. We still need to proceed with caution. I think we should wait until night."
"Can."
"We need to ensure that Golden City can withstand Du Ruofu's attack."
Lu Yun shook his head at this time, "No... You are wrong. Du Ruofu is now in sole power. He can't possibly have the energy to attack the Golden City, nor can he be so concerned about the princess's affairs."
"What we need to do now is to lead the troops to fight. Let's directly let General Helan Meng lead the troops to the battle."
"Why?" Ye Jiajia frowned, looking quite puzzled. Even Bai Xiaoxiao beside her was a little confused.
Logically speaking, the Prime Minister should try every possible means to eradicate them, so why do you say that?
Lu Yun remained silent. The reason he thought so was that he felt that Du Ruofu was trying every possible way to eliminate the Barbarian King.
The main purpose of sending troops to Da Zhou at the same time was to weaken the fighting effectiveness between the two sides.
His goal has been achieved. If he divides his energy to deal with the Golden City and the princess at this time, it will be more trouble than gain. It is better to concentrate all the forces together.
"fine."
And so we waited until night.
At night, the weather was cold and there were very few people in the entire Golden City.
There are rarely any pedestrians on the streets.
Lu Yunbie brought them and quietly came to the City Lord's Mansion.
Moreover, to enter through the main gate, they had to climb over the wall. There was no other way because their identities were special and could not be exposed easily.
If you enter through the main gate openly, many people will know about it.
City Lord's Mansion.
Zhao Youqian was having a drink and getting ready to go to sleep when suddenly one of his men rushed in and said something.
"City Lord, that Mr. Lu is here."
"Ah! Is he really back?"
"I must find out what's going on."
Zhao Youqian, the Lord of Golden City, could no longer sit still upon hearing the news and hurried out to greet Lu Yun and the others.
After seeing the princess, Zhao Youqian did not hesitate. After all, there was a difference in their status, so he knelt down directly. Unexpectedly, Bai Xiaoxiao helped him up and whispered.
"Don't be like this. I am a princess in name only. After all, my father is gone."
"No, a princess will always be a princess." Zhao Youqian asked quickly, "How did you escape?
I thought you were still in Sun City. After all, Sun City has set up a tight net for you. It will definitely not be easy to escape."
Lu Yun sighed and explained helplessly, "It's really not easy."
"We got out in disguise."
"But Du Ruofu also helped in this."
"Huh?" Zhao Youqian was a little confused for a moment.
"Let's go in first."
When they came into the house, they were suddenly hit by a warmth. Zhao Youqian really knew how to enjoy life. He directly set up a stove in the house.
For him, it was indeed a very simple and plain life.
"Eunuch Lu, have you eaten today? If not, I'll ask the servants to make something quickly."
Lu Yun nodded and said, "Hurry up and bring some food over. I'm starving. I've been wandering around the grasslands lately."
"Okay, you wait."
While preparing to eat, Zhao Youqian took the opportunity to ask directly, "What exactly is going on?"
"How could His Majesty die suddenly?"
Lu Yun explained helplessly, "It's because Du Ruofu secretly poisoned His Majesty, and he used the Miaojiang poison."
"Also, when I discovered it that day, His Majesty had passed away that night. This was something we never expected. Du Ruofu is truly cruel."
"This..." Zhao Youqian frowned and looked very surprised.
"So all this is because of Du Ruofu."
"Yes, I actually learned a long time ago that Du Ruofu wanted to support the Third Prince to become emperor. The Third Prince has a good relationship with him."
"Once he supports the Third Prince, Du Ruofu will truly hold the power, and he won't have to fear anything."
Hearing this, Zhao Youqian suddenly realized.
"So he also killed those princes, but he put the blame directly on you, right?"
"That's the truth."
Zhao Youqian thought for a moment, "So what should I do now? I can't wait to rush to Sun City and avenge His Majesty."
