Although Dongyang did not send troops directly to Xiliang, Feng Wenzhuo's actions had already eliminated the worries of Northern Wei and Nanyue.
Just Nanyue or Northern Wei were not enough for him to deal with. Who knew that Qian Yeming and Baili Yi would be so cruel as to send troops together.
When he heard the news, Yelu Boyan seemed to see his own head hanging at the Meridian Gate.
So from this morning till now, he has been almost scared out of his wits.
He still didn't understand why the Northern Wei attacked him. If he had said that he had sent people to kill Qian Yeming and Baili Xiao when they were in Xiliang, and that these two would retaliate double, he could still understand why. But why was the Northern Wei so anxious to attack him?
It's impossible that he was venting his anger on Baili Xiao's behalf, right?
I have to say that Yelu Boyan’s wild thoughts were indeed correct.
The three Baili brothers and Qian Yeming were all extremely petty and protective of their own people. It was fine if nothing happened to them on a normal day, but if you did anything even slightly bad to someone they cared about, you'd be wiped out.
Just like this time, the assassination of Baili Xiao had already incurred public wrath, causing the Northern Wei Dynasty to be restless. Now, in order to protect themselves, they finally came up with a plan to kidnap Xuanyuan Yexiao, but ended up making another mistake.
Who is this Baili Xiao? Qian Yeming's wife! The younger sister of the three Baili brothers!
Who is this Xuanyuan Yexiao? He's Baili Feng's man! He's also Baili Xiao's... that thing! Is that someone you can afford to offend?
Right now, Northern Wei and Nanyue don't know you've severely injured Xuanyuan Yexiao, so they're still slowly gathering their forces and preparing to attack. If they find out in a couple of days, won't they immediately overrun your territory and make you pay for your life?
Unfortunately, Yelu Boyang didn't understand. He really didn't understand! To this day, he still regretted killing Qian Yeming and Baili Xiao in Xiliang. Really! He regretted it so much! He regretted it so much that his intestines turned green!
That's why he spared no expense to catch Xuanyuan Yexiao, because he felt that catching Baili Feng was unrealistic, so he could only catch Xuanyuan Yexiao.
He felt that although this person was just a marginal figure, he was a friend of Baili Feng after all, and it was said that he had always been hanging out with the Baili brothers and sisters. This guy must know something.
If Xuanyuan Yexiao could be used by him and provide him with some information, he might not have lost so badly.
Really, that's what he thought and did.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that this time, he succeeded. Although he failed to capture Xuanyuan Yexiao, he seriously injured him and successfully poked a huge hornet's nest.
If Yelu Boyang knew that he would stir up such a big hornet's nest because of this, let alone hurt Xuanyuan Yexiao, he swore to heaven and earth that for the sake of Xiliang, he would treat him as an ancestor and worship him with all his might!
But unfortunately he didn't know.
So after learning in the morning that Nanyue and Northern Wei had jointly declared war on him, he immediately gave orders to send heavy troops to closely guard the corpse at the gate of Xuanyuan Mansion. As long as Xuanyuan Yexiao or people from Northern Wei came to rescue, they would be captured immediately, and as many as could be caught alive would be captured.
In his opinion, now that things have come to this, it would be good to arrest more people and use them as bargaining chips.
