Chapter 313 Conspiracy
Another white flag was stuffed through the crack in the door.
Chiyu sneered: "Let your king come out in person to welcome our Prince Yong and his wife, otherwise, light the fire immediately and burn to death the evil creatures you raised first!"
The palace door suddenly opened, and a woman rushed out: "No, don't kill me Ling'er, I'll open the door, I'll open the door."
Immediately afterwards, King Qi also stumbled out.
When the palace gate opened, King Qi and Queen Princess saw their daughter's face covered with black blood and her life or death unknown. They immediately ran over wailing.
The woman hugged Concubine Qi and started crying: "My son, my son, who has hurt you like this?"
When King Qi saw his daughter's miserable appearance, he stared at Mu Junyan angrily.
"You have already killed my son, and you still dare to threaten me!"
Mu Junyan looked at him arrogantly: "It wasn't us who killed your daughter, it was you."
King Qi's face changed and he wanted to say something, but the crazy woman next to him slapped him hard in the face.
Then the woman dropped her daughter and rode on King Qi like a madman, punching him like raindrops.
"It's all your fault! It's because you believed Wang Heng from Daliang. It's because you were stupid enough to go against the Mu family army! Not only did you kill our daughter, you also want us to die with you? You old bastard!"
Obviously, the king is older and the princess is young and strong.
The people of Qi live in the mountains all year round, and both men and women are strong and healthy.
However, due to the inconvenient transportation in the mountains, the people are not very wealthy.
The guards and servants of Qi State did not dare to persuade them, and watched in horror as the black-armored guards surrounded the palace.
Gu Huan tightly grasped the reins and said coldly, "Even if you beat him to death, you won't survive."
The princess who was hitting someone paused and looked up suddenly, only to find that there was a beautiful woman among the ferocious Mu family soldiers and black-armored guards.
She suddenly stood up and glared at me, "You are Gu Huan! Because of you, Princess Shuhe became the principal wife through marriage and took away the position that belonged to my daughter!"
Gu Huan laughed: "Qi is just a small country in southern Xinjiang. To Dali, you are just one of the small countries. With your current strength, your daughter wants to become the princess of Dali? I'm afraid she is dreaming, right?"
"You are talking nonsense! My daughter was promised the position of princess when she married him! Duan Yu used you as an excuse to force Princess Shuhe to marry him voluntarily. You are just a seducer...ah!"
Before he could finish his words, Mu Junyan raised his hand and whipped him with a horsewhip without any mercy.
A blood mark suddenly appeared on Princess Qi's face. She screamed in pain, her hands trembling, but she did not dare to protect her face.
With the Mu family army and the Black Armor Guards watching closely, no one dared to step forward.
Prince Qi got up tremblingly. Seeing that the princess' face was covered in blood from the beating, he was too busy to get angry or think about anything else. He quickly kowtowed to Mu Junyan and Gu Huan.
"I was deceived by Wang Heng. He said that the 300,000 Yuan family troops sent by Bianjing had already besieged Juzhou, and that as long as I took the lead in gathering the generals of various countries and tribes to fight against the Mu family army together, they would help me seize the Dali Kingdom."
Mu Junyan laughed loudly, "King Qi, you have been dreaming this dream for your whole life, and you are still not awake? Even if the Yuan family army sends 300,000 soldiers, our Mu family army is not afraid. What's more, the Yuan family army is now unable to take care of itself, and the war in the north is tense. Besides, Wang Heng has no military power and no real power. He is just an abandoned child who was exiled here. You believe this."
"No wonder the Qi Kingdom, which was supposed to dominate the southern border, has been reduced to its current state by you! It's because you are useless."
"Yes, yes, I am useless. King Yong, please show some mercy. I really don't know anything."
Gu Huan was furious: "It was your daughter who tipped you off and told you the date of our female general's wedding. It was your people who pretended to be from Dali and kidnapped and insulted people. You used a woman as a bargaining chip. You are simply not human!"
King Qi's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
An official who was kneeling beside him couldn't help it and quickly crawled to his side.
"Your Majesty, that person is not one of ours. Please stop covering up for Wang Heng."
King Qi wiped his sweat and raised his head tremblingly: "Yes, that group of people are indeed not ours. Wang Heng and his people have been entrenched here for more than half a year. Later, he paid one thousand taels of gold to let my daughter inquire about General Zhou's wedding date, and then said that he would help me provoke a war between Dali and the Mu family army. At the same time, we will gather troops and attack Juzhou while you are lured away from the mountain."
King Qi kowtowed and cried: "King Yong, I was wrong, please spare my life."
Mu Junyan asked coldly: "Where are those people?"
The minister said, "They disappeared after returning to Qi's residence at midnight yesterday."
"Chiyan, go check it out."
Chi Yan rode forward, grabbed the official by the collar, and threw him onto the horse: "Show me the way."
The official was almost suffocated and pointed the way with difficulty. Chi Yan took a few people and left.
After a while, Chi Yan came back alone.
He handed a jade pendant to Mu Junyan: "Master, I found this at their residence."
Mu Junyan's eyes darkened when he saw it.
"Zhao Yuchen!"
Gu Huan was slightly surprised: "You mean the third prince of Concubine Xian? Is he the one who is behind this? No wonder Wang Heng was able to set up such a big scheme, it turns out there is a prince in charge here!"
She suddenly thought of a possibility, "Is Yuan Jieying involved?"
It gives me chills just thinking about it.
They all treated Yuan Jieying as a sister, and she volunteered to write a letter to her fourth brother in the Yuan family army. She also said that only Concubine Xian knew that she was still alive. If she got involved...
Gu Huan no longer dares to trust people too much.
She was extremely anxious and wanted to go back immediately, fearing that something might have happened to Juzhou.
Mu Junyan gave her a soothing look and looked coldly at King Qi: "Who else is involved? Hand them over immediately, otherwise, we will find out and you will not be able to bear the consequences."
King Qi hurriedly got up and rushed to a minister, dragging him over: "He, he is responsible for colluding with the Daliang people. He knows everything."
"Your Majesty!" the minister wailed in despair.
Mu Junyan waved his hand and said, "Take it away."
The black-armored guards immediately stepped forward, tied him up and threw him onto the horse.
Gu Huan pointed at Queen Qi and said, "Take her away too."
A hundred black-armored guards, along with the Queen of Qi and her daughter, as well as a minister, rode their horses in a massive mass and galloped out of the city.
Seeing them leave, King Qi's body softened and he sat on the ground.
After leaving the city gate and running for thirty miles, they could see the Juzhou city wall in the distance, so Mu Junyan ordered the team to stop.
Chi Yan stepped forward and reported the intelligence he had just obtained.
After hearing this, Gu Huan couldn't help but admire Mu Junyan.
It turned out that Juzhou had already laid a tight net, and people from Bianjing were detained as soon as they entered the city.
The armies of various small countries and tribes have also been destroyed.
The purpose of Mu Junyan and her going straight to Dali was to threaten Dali Kingdom not to get involved. As long as Duan Yu did not send troops, dealing with these small countries would be a piece of cake.
Gu Huan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but was still somewhat puzzled: "Is it true that Bian Jing issued an edict?"
"It's true."
Mu Junyan nodded: "I followed you out to make the people from Bianjing relax, thinking that they can control my Mu family army. Zhou Chunyu is in charge of the city, and all the troops have their own plans. The Mu family army can still win the battle without me."
The more Gu Huan thought about it, the more frightened she became: "Could it be that the ultimate purpose of all this is to transfer us away from Juzhou?"
Mu Junyan nodded: "Yes. They want to lure the tiger away from the mountain, so I will take advantage of their trick."
Gu Huan simply couldn't bear to think about it.
If this is the case, the kidnapping of Zhou Zhilan turned out to be such a big deal.
wrong.
If Mu Junyan could plan this battle so carefully, why did he miss this important link and let Zhilan fall into his clutches?
Gu Huan looked at Mu Junyan with confusion.
Would he know that Zhilan would become a target, but just sit back and do nothing and let it develop?
The more Gu Huan thought about it, the more this possibility seemed to be true.
After all, being experienced in many battles and being shrewd and calculating are the essence of Mu Junyan!
If Zhou Chunyu also knew about it in advance...
No, she couldn't bear this result!
She wanted to go back immediately to find out.
If that were true, she would kill Zhou Chunyu with her own hands!
Seeing her unhappy face, Mu Junyan asked with concern, "Are you physically exhausted?"
Gu Huan did not show any emotion. This realization was too much for her to accept.
Shaking his head, he said, "Can we go back to the city now?"
She was too worried about Zhilan.
Mu Junyan looked at Chi Yan and saw him nod.
"Can."
Gu Huan didn't say anything and rode his horse towards Juzhou.
