Chapter 197: Destroying the Thieves
Shen Yuling sat on the couch, her face as pale as ice.
Xitong was delighted to learn that she had returned, and wanted to run over happily, but when she saw two stern-looking guards at the door, her steps suddenly stopped.
His expression was full of confusion.
She gently pushed open the door, and the oppressive atmosphere in the room hit her in the face.
Shen Yuling was seen with a frown on her face.
"My lady, what's wrong with you?"
Hasn’t Liu Jingyi been dealt with? She thought the queen would be happy to come back, but only Feng Moheng was left.
Shen Yuling slowly raised her eyes and looked at Xitong: "Can't I kill Feng Moheng myself? Why do I have to use Quan Minghe's hand?"
Now Quan Minghe obviously realized her intention. No matter how angry he was, he would not kill Feng Moheng as she wished.
Xi Tong hurriedly moved closer and lowered her voice: "You are an alien soul. If you kill Feng Moheng with your own hands, you can forget about leaving this world."
"Quan Minghe has great luck, so using him is the best way. If we can find a way to get someone else to do it, that would be fine too. But Feng Moheng is the original male protagonist, so I don't know who has the ability to do that."
Shen Yuling gripped the teacup tightly in her hand, her knuckles turning white from the force.
"But now Quan Minghe has obviously guessed that I want to kill Feng Moheng. Although he doesn't know why I want to do this, he uses this to threaten me. If I can't give him a reason that can convince him, he will never take action against Feng Moheng."
Kwon Myung-hyuk is worthy of being the male protagonist in male-oriented movies, he is so rational that he is almost cold.
She had used Feng Moheng to provoke him in that way, but he was still able to suppress his anger. He was really like a Ninja Turtle. How could he be so calm?
Xitong was also in a dilemma, not knowing what to do for a moment: "Madam, how about letting Ye Jinshu kill Feng Moheng?"
Shen Yuling raised her eyes and said, "You want me to kill him? In an era when imperial power was supreme, it would be easy for Quan Minghe to kill Ye Jinshu, just like crushing an ant to death."
She sighed slightly: "Kwon Myung Hyuk is hypocritical in the court. He either pushes the bad things onto the princess or plans to trap his enemies. He never does anything that damages the emperor's reputation and prestige."
"Besides, I always treated Ye Jinshu as my brother and relative in front of Quan Minghe. He didn't do anything to Ye Jinshu because of me."
"But once he finds out that Ye Jinshu has other thoughts about me, and even kills Feng Moheng for me, will he let Ye Jinshu go easily?"
Xitong listened and remained silent.
What should I do?
Their only task now was to kill Feng Moheng.
Shen Yuling's brows were twisted into a knot.
Then let’s fight a protracted war with Quan Minghe and see who loses patience first.
Since Shen Yuling followed Quan Minghe back to the mansion, she has been almost under house arrest in the mansion.
Quan Minghe did this because he wanted to teach her a lesson. She relied on his love and trampled on his dignity, which was really unbearable for him.
Second, when he thought about what might have happened between her and Feng Moheng in the Marquis' Mansion in the past month, he became burning with jealousy.
Always wondering if they have done all the intimate things?
Whenever these thoughts came to his mind, Quan Minghe wanted to kill Feng Moheng immediately.
In order to control his emotions and complete the main mission of this trip south, Quan Minghe put all his energy into investigating the Feng family. He was busy every day and tried to numb himself with the busyness.
The streets of Ruijin County on the tenth day of Shen Yuling's house arrest.
There was a tense atmosphere in the morning light.
Kwon Myung Hyuk was dressed in casual clothes and seemed to be casually going out of the house to do some business, but he knew that a carefully planned assassination was approaching for him.
He was just putting himself in danger and luring the enemy deeper into his territory.
Feng Qin sat on a tall horse with an upright posture, but his face showed a bit of arrogance and cruelty.
He looked down at Quan Minghe, who had only a few guards left, and smiled coldly: "Your Majesty, Feng Moheng has the blood of the former Jinlin royal family and the bloodline of my Feng family. He is the only candidate to restore the Jinlin Kingdom. If you hadn't captured him, we wouldn't have acted so quickly."
After that, he swung the long sword in his hand fiercely and ordered loudly: "Everyone listen to my order, kill Quan Minghe, and he will be crowned king and prime minister in no time!"
Quan Minghe's body was as firm as a pine tree, standing still, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
He said in a deep voice: "Feng Tan, do you really think you can kill me today? If your people dare to make any move, it will be considered a rebellion."
"This is a capital crime punishable by extermination of the family. I will lead the army tomorrow and exterminate all members of the Feng clan in the name of rebellion."
As Quan Minghe spoke, Feng Qin's men did not move for the time being.
Feng Qin looked up to the sky and laughed: "Oh, who in the world knows that the current emperor is in Ruijin County? Who would know that you were assassinated in Ruijin County? Once you die, this world will belong to our Feng family!"
Quan Minghe sneered, his eyes disdainful: "Stubborn."
Before Feng Qin's men could make a move, he opened his thin lips and uttered two words: "Make a move."
In an instant, the shouts and sounds of killing were deafening.
The troops that had been transferred from the three surrounding counties earlier surged out like a tide and surrounded Feng's people.
County lieutenant Ke Yuan rode a sturdy black horse and quickly came to Quan Minghe, dismounted, and knelt on one knee: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
"Stand up."
Afterwards, Quan Minghe and Ke Yuan mounted their horses and confronted Feng Qin.
Ke Yuan stared at Feng Tan with a glaring gaze and shouted, "Feng Tan, how dare you commit treason? Why don't you surrender?!"
Feng Tan showed no fear at all, and sneered, "Surrender? Do you think you can suppress me with such a small force?"
As soon as Feng Qin finished speaking, a steady sound of horse hooves was heard.
Feng Moheng rode a jet-black horse and slowly walked forward from the center of the Feng family's army.
He was in a chic manner, with a look of pride on his face: "Uncle, I can't let you have your way. I was not escorted back to Beijing, but appeared in front of you safely."
Quan Minghe's eyes flashed with surprise, but he immediately regained his composure and said calmly, "You do have some skills."
Feng Moheng raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a confident smile.
He was trying to persuade Ke Yuan to rebel: "Ke Yuan, are you really loyal to His Majesty? When His Majesty unified the country, he did not receive the recognition of heaven. How could he be honored as an emperor? I advise you to submit to me. When I ascend the throne, I will give you the position of Grand Commandant."
Ke Yuan's face darkened instantly, and he shouted angrily: "How arrogant!"
At this time, Feng Moheng took out a box calmly.
The box was extremely delicate, with exquisite dragon and phoenix tattoos, and even inlaid with gems.
He slowly opened it in front of everyone.
The people around who saw this thing all widened their eyes and exclaimed in surprise.
Feng Moheng was very satisfied with everyone's reaction and said loudly: "See? This is the imperial seal! When the Five Kingdoms were in power, the imperial seal had disappeared. Now it is in my hands. 'Mandated by Heaven, long life and prosperity' means that I am the emperor chosen by Heaven."
He paused, and looked at Ke Yuan with a sharp gaze: "I am of the royal bloodline of Jinlin Kingdom, and I am the orthodox one. Ke Yuan, why don't you surrender?"
Ke Yuan's face changed again and again, his lips were tightly pursed, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
The imperial seal is what all the kings have been looking for since the turbulent times.
Unexpectedly, it was taken away by Guiming Hou.
Could it be that he was really the emperor chosen by God?
Quan Minghe's eyes were like knives, and his voice was like ice, resounding: "I conquered this world with my iron hooves and unified it with my strategy. How can you dream of coveting it with this object that you don't know whether it is real or fake!"
He raised his head slightly, his eyes showing majesty and arrogance, "Now the orthodoxy is only in power, anyone who defies the imperial power will be killed!"
When Ke Yuan heard this, the slight hesitation in his heart instantly disappeared.
Your Majesty's regime is now stable and the people live and work in peace and contentment under your rule. How can you allow the conspiracy of these treacherous ministers to succeed?
At that moment, his expression became stern, he drew the sword from his waist, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty is wise, anyone who rebels against the emperor shall be punished!"
In an instant, shouts of killing shook the sky, the two sides engaged in close combat, and a fierce fight began.
Swords flashed, blood splattered, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.
As Feng Moheng fought, he felt the situation was getting worse.
His brows were furrowed, and while he was fighting hard, he was thinking to himself: Why is it that the number of Feng family's soldiers is decreasing even though they did not suffer heavy casualties?
Feng Tan also noticed something was wrong. His eyes widened with anger, veins popped out on his face, and he shouted at the top of his voice, "How dare you betray the Feng family!"
Quan Minghe looked at the increasingly chaotic Feng family army, a sneer appeared on his lips, and he said sarcastically: "Feng Moheng, do you think I will stay in Ruijin County for a month or two just to travel around? I already know exactly how many troops your Feng family has and what deployment they have."
At this time, Ke Yuan was very glad that he was not deceived by the thief.
Even without him, Your Majesty would surely be able to escape unscathed.
Feng Moheng's heart sank, and his hands gripping the reins unconsciously tightened, his knuckles turning white from the force.
I'm afraid his plan this time will fail.
Quan Minghe never gave the enemy a chance to breathe. He quickly picked up the bow and arrow from the side of the horse without hesitation, pulled the bow and put the arrow in one go.
His eyes were firm and cold, and the arrow was pointed directly at Feng Moheng.
With a "whoosh" sound, the sharp arrow, like a black lightning, cut through the sky and shot straight towards Feng Moheng.
Feng Moheng was unable to dodge and felt a sharp pain in his waist as a feather arrow pierced deeply into his body.
He groaned and almost fell off his horse.
Quan Minghe looked at the injured Feng Moheng and ordered: "Today's stubborn traitors are unforgivable and their entire clans will be exterminated! As for Feng Moheng, bring him back to Ganjing alive!"
As Kwon Myung-hyuk's order was issued, this thrilling war gradually came to an end.
The Feng family army was completely defeated under Quan Minghe's encirclement and suppression.
Seeing that the situation was settled, Quan Minghe did not stop. He squeezed his legs against the horse's belly, and the horse neighed and galloped away like an arrow.
At this point, the turmoil in Ruijin County finally came to an end.
Quan Minghe knew in his heart that there was still an important matter that needed to be resolved urgently.
He should have a good talk with Shen Yuling about their beginning and end, and what she really wants.
