Chapter 676: Threats (Chapter 9)



Ye Chutang called out, "Ah Yan."

Ye Jingyan immediately stepped forward and handed over two white jade medicine bottles and a thin prescription.

"This is the medicine I recently developed for treating leg diseases. You can use it first. As for the prescription, ask Long Jiu to go to the pharmacy and get a month's supply according to the prescription. Boil one dose every day. After a month, see how you recover and then make adjustments."

Ye Chutang raised his chin.

"In this way, it can be regarded as a thank you gift for your help this time."

Xun Cheng was not polite, he raised his hand to take it, and said with a smile, "Since you insist, then I will accept it. However, I heard that you did not open a clinic after returning to Beijing. I'm afraid it took a lot of effort to make this medicine specially?"

He knew best how lazy Ye Chutang was, and he would never refuse any opportunity to take some time off.

These two bottles of medicine were obviously made by her recently.

Ye Chutang shook his head carelessly.

"Don't worry about it, it's just a simple matter."

Xun Cheng: "...Why, have you seen other people with leg problems recently?"

Ye Chutang thought about it and sighed.

"Indeed, I don't know how I got into such trouble."

As if she was afraid that Xun Cheng would think too much, she added, "Fortunately, your leg disease is the mildest among all of them. As long as you take the medicine properly and exercise diligently, you will definitely recover."

As for Uncle Di, that is definitely impossible.

And Xiao Chenglin...

Ye Chutang narrowed his eyes slightly.

She was a little unsure about this one...

Xun Cheng: "...From what you said, I am still the luckiest one?"

Ye Chutang looked at him and nodded seriously.

Qiyuan Hall.

The gate was closed and the hall was silent and solemn.

Emperor Mu Wu looked down at the dirty prisoners kneeling below and spoke in a deep voice.

"Tuoba Yu, did you get your brother's permission to do this?"

Tuoba Yu lowered his head and said nothing.

If we hadn't been able to hear his faint breathing, people would have thought he was dead.

Emperor Mu Wu snorted coldly.

"You think if you don't say anything, this matter will just pass? How naive!"

That’s a full five thousand soldiers!

"Do you know that once your identity is made known to the world, it will prove that Nanhu took the initiative to invade! When the two sides officially go to war, do you think that the old, weak, and sick in your tiny land of Nanhu can hold out for a few days!?"

When Emperor Mu Wu received the battle report earlier, he knew there must be something fishy. When he met Tuoba Yu today, King Yannan told him the whole truth, and he learned the truth.

Of course, the part where Xun Cheng passed the message to Ye Yunfeng for help was intentionally or unintentionally omitted.

The explanation given by King Nan of Yan was that after he was trapped in Longcheng, one of his personal soldiers risked his life to escape and found ways to send a letter for help to Feng Zhang who was stationed in Xiacheng. Feng Zhang immediately sent troops to the scene, and with the careful planning of Ye Yunfeng and others, they were able to capture Tuoba Yu and his gang in one fell swoop.

The personal soldier actually passed the news to Princess Qinyang, and was killed afterwards.

But that doesn’t matter. At least, it doesn’t matter to Emperor Mu Wu.

As an emperor, winning or losing the war is the most important thing!

As for how this victory was achieved... there are thousands of theories.

Now that Tuoba Yu has been captured, everything will be easy.

Seeing that Tuoba Yu had not responded, Emperor Muwu was not in a hurry. He just leaned back on his chair and spoke slowly.

"Do you think I can do nothing to you if you don't say anything? I remember that you and your brother have a very good relationship. If he saw you like this, how do you think he would react?"

Tuoba Yu finally moved, and looked up suddenly, with deep anger and hatred in his eyes.

"You! If you want to kill me or chop me up, just come! This was done by me alone, and has nothing to do with my brother!"

"oh?"

Emperor Muwu seemed to have heard some joke.

"Is your brother really totally unaware? He doesn't know that you have mobilized 5,000 troops to Longcheng, nor does he know that you have trapped King Yannan, and you even want to use King Yannan's hand to take over the three border cities without any effort?"

There are so many things going on, with so many important matters involved, but Tuoba Yu actually said that his royal brother knew nothing?

Tuoba Yu was a little anxious, "He really doesn't know! This is all my fault, I will take all the responsibility!"

He was so emotional that a surge of blood rose in his throat.

He swallowed it hard, and each word seemed to pop out from between his teeth.

"You don't dare to reveal my identity, do you? Otherwise, we are really preparing for war! Even if I, Nan Hu, risk my life, I can still bite off a few pieces of your flesh! Your life will never be easy!"

Emperor Mu Wu had a grim expression and sneered.

"You are so arrogant! But you are so stupid! Tuoba Shan is so unlucky to have a brother like you who holds him back!"

Tuoba Yu looked at him and his heart began to beat fast.

What's going on?

Didn't they say that Emperor Mu Wu was in poor health? Why does he look fine now?

If he died, there would be chaos here, and we would not be able to deal with foreign enemies in a short period of time.

That’s a great opportunity for Nan Hu!

Tuoba Yu had been waiting for this day and had even laid the groundwork early on. He planned to secretly occupy several cities on the border first and bring his soldiers here quietly. Once Emperor Mu Wu passed away, he would start fighting immediately!

Take advantage of the chaos and kill them!

Tuoba Yu's plan was flawless, and he even successfully captured King Yannan. He felt that victory was in sight!

But he didn't expect Ye Yunfeng to appear halfway.

He still doesn't know how he lost!

Now that he has fallen into this situation, he can't think of a better ending than death.

Once these people use him as a bargaining chip to threaten my brother, then...

Tuoba Yu felt extremely uncomfortable whenever he thought of this situation. Rather than live like this, he would rather die!

In fact, he did try to commit suicide numerous times along the way, but they watched him so closely that he never stood a chance.

It was at this time that he suddenly realized that once a person became a prisoner, he could not even decide whether to die or not.

Emperor Muwu was too lazy to talk nonsense with Tuoba Yu anymore, and looked directly at King Yannan and asked:

"Is there any movement from the Nanhu royal family?"

Tuoba Yu was shocked and started to struggle immediately!

However, as soon as he moved, the wound on his shoulder was torn open again, and blood gushed out.

Tuoba Yu's face turned extremely pale and he collapsed to the ground.

——Ye Yunfeng’s arrow pierced through his shoulder with such force that it destroyed his half-transformed shoulder blade!

And so much time has passed, and none of them has straightened his bones or healed his injuries, so the broken bones still pierce his flesh with his movements, causing him even greater pain.

King Yannan turned his head and looked at him expressionlessly, then stepped forward, clasped his fists and said,

"In reply to your Majesty, we sent the news to Nanhu five days after we set out. Calculating the time, their letter should be arriving in the capital soon." (End of this chapter)
