Chapter 213 The Old Emperor's Favorite Concubine
Having visited the Goryeo Royal Palace several times, Liu Shiqi and Zhuang Yan are already familiar with the place.
There was a battle at the city gate until it was dark and chaotic.
Liu Shiqi and the others were in the palace, running around happily and moving things from one warehouse to another.
Liu Shiqi sighed as he looked at the piles of gold, silver and jewelry.
"I didn't expect that there would be so many good things in the palace of this tiny country!"
Zhuang Yan said with a smile.
"Although Goryeo is a small country, its resources are not very abundant!"
"But the royal family of this country is still very rich!"
"Because the nobles and gentry in this country oppress the people even more ruthlessly."
“Class is even more deeply rooted!”
"The lowest class in our Great Xia country is the common people! Even if you are a noble, you cannot kill the common people at will!"
"But Goryeo is different. They still have untouchables! The nobles can be beaten and killed at will!"
"It's also easier to take human life!"
"And I heard from Mei Niang that it is even more unsuitable for women to live here."
"It is very common for women, regardless of their status, to be bought and sold."
Liu Shiqi pursed his lips and nodded.
"Brother Zhuang, let's put it this way. After we completely conquer Goryeo, we will incorporate it into the territory of Daxia, just like Hai Province!"
"And this money should be used to benefit the local people!"
"By the way, we also need to allocate a portion to Li Yuer and her two children."
"Let's consider it as compensation given to them by the Emperor of Goryeo!"
Zhuang Yan touched her head gently.
"Okay, we'll all listen to Shi Qi!"
After they put everything they could take into the space house.
The defenses of Maicheng were also breached.
Chen Lang led an army of hundreds of thousands and quickly broke through the Goryeo royal palace.
They successfully captured alive the Goryeo Emperor Yi In-deok, the Queen, the Queen Mother, and other members of the royal family.
He also controlled all the ministers and their families of Goryeo.
Zhuang Yan stayed and handled the follow-up matters with Chen Lang and others.
Liu Shiqi returned to the top floor of the brothel to rest.
Early the next morning, Zhuang Yan accompanied Miao Shouqing and others to find Liu Shiqi.
Then I saw Miao Haiyang and Miao Haimei lying side by side on the bed.
Both children had changed into clean clothes and were sleeping soundly.
Liu Shiqi whispered to Miao Shouqing.
"Brother Miao! Both children are fine!"
"After they wake up, you can take them away!"
Miao Shouqing looked at the two children on the bed excitedly and couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Thank you very much, Brother Zhuang and his wife!"
Zhuang Yan smiled and patted his shoulder, "We are all family, don't be polite, big brother!"
"Then I'll leave this to Big Brother! Shi Qi and I still have things to take care of!"
Miao Shouqing nodded gratefully and watched the two leave.
At the door they also met Pei Lang and Du Sen.
When they saw Liu Shiqi and Zhuang Yan, they all gave them a thumbs up.
Pei Lang said, "Brother Zhuang is really resourceful. He found our nephew in one day!"
Du Sen also said.
"yes!"
"We almost turned Goryeo upside down but couldn't find it. I really don't know how you two did it!"
"But no matter what, the children have been found!"
"And by the way, Gao Liguo was also captured!"
"Whatever, we have to celebrate!"
Zhuang Yan smiled and said, "Third brother, there's no need to celebrate yet!"
"Although the child has been found, my eldest brother's wife is still in the palace of the Great Xia Kingdom!"
"We have to celebrate, but we have to wait until she is rescued so that Big Brother and his family can be reunited!"
Du Sen was stunned, touched his head and nodded.
"You're right!"
"Then there is news from the eldest sister-in-law."
Zhuang Yan shook his head and said.
"I sent someone a message before, but there has been no response so far!"
"So I suspect that my message was intercepted!"
Du Sen immediately became nervous.
"What do we do now?"
"Could something have happened to my sister-in-law?"
Pei Lang also frowned and asked, "I've been to Kyoto a few times before. It's full of dignitaries and the relationships are complicated!"
"Will the sister-in-law..."
Fangyan shook his head, "Let's not scare ourselves!"
"Or maybe we are too far away from Kyoto now, so the news has not been transmitted back yet."
Several people were silent.
After a while, Zhuang Yan said.
"How about this, I'll go back to Kyoto myself."
"Meet the sister-in-law!"
Du Sen and Pei Lang both looked at him seriously and nodded.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Zhuang, to make this trip!"
They actually also wanted to go to Kyoto and rescue their sister-in-law personally.
But Kyoto is not as good as Goryeo and the southeastern coastal prefectures.
After all, Kyoto is the imperial capital of the Great Xia Kingdom, with dense spies and complex forces.
It was obvious that they were not from Kyoto, and if they went there they would definitely arouse suspicion from all parties and would be unable to move forward.
Not only will I fail to rescue my sister-in-law, but I will also bring danger to her, which will be a loss.
Zhuang Yan said, "After I go to Kyoto, I will leave this place to Chen Lang and his team."
"I hope that my eldest, second, and third brothers can stay and assist Chen Lang and the others to stabilize the situation together."
"We can't let Goryeo make a comeback!"
Pei Lang nodded, "Okay, go ahead and leave it to us!"
Du Sen also said, "Brother Zhuang, if you encounter any problems after you go there, you can send us a message!"
“We are always on standby!”
Zhuang Yan nodded and pulled Liu Shiqi out of the back door of the brothel. Then he disappeared at a corner where no one was.
Kyoto Imperial Palace, Fengming Hall.
There were only two people at this time.
The stunningly beautiful Concubine Li, dressed in gorgeous palace clothes, was looking coldly at the senior palace maid Lichun, who was kneeling on the ground in front of her.
"Tell me again, you really didn't receive any letters?"
"Your Majesty, has he really not changed his mind?"
Lichun nodded expressionlessly.
"In reply to your Majesty, I indeed did not receive any letter!"
"So your majesty must follow the emperor's previous orders and continue to deceive the emperor of Daxia!"
"Let the Emperor of Daxia continue to take the elixir!"
Concubine Li looked at her coldly and spoke through gritted teeth.
"After the old emperor drank the medicine, he vomited blood and fell into a coma!"
"You actually asked me to feed him medicine. Do you want everyone to know that I was the one who harmed him?"
Lichun frowned.
"There is nothing I can do. This is the order of our Emperor!"
"You must obey!"
"Otherwise you know what the consequences will be! You don't want anything to happen to the young master, do you?"
Concubine Li was so angry that she threw all the cups in her hands to the ground. The splashed fragments directly scratched Lichun's face, leaving a bloody mark.
But Lichun remained unmoved.
She didn't wipe the blood off her face.
Instead, he took out a box from his arms, handed it to Concubine Li and said.
"My queen, the time has come, you should go and deliver the medicine!"
Concubine Li stared at the box.
There was a fierce light in his eyes.
After a long time, he finally stood up shakily as if he had lost his temper, and took the box.
"Okay, I'll go!"
"I will go there!"
She smiled sadly and said, "I am just a chess piece in his hand just like you. How can I have the right to say no!"
"Anyway, I've gotten used to it since I was a child!"
She looked outside, in the direction of Goryeo.
I hope God will have mercy on me and spare my children...
