Chapter 370 Xiao Jinxuan, I'm back
"Don't even think about it!"
Without waiting for Xie Zhuoning to answer, Xiao Jinxuan rejected it decisively and firmly.
If it weren't for Ye Wuque, how could so many twists and turns have happened, and how could he and Aning have almost been separated?
At this point, he still has the nerve to ask for forgiveness?
"Xiao Cao'er, I want to hear it from you in person." Ye Wuque looked at Xie Zhuoning stubbornly, wanting an answer.
Xie Zhuoning raised his eyes and looked at him, his eyes bright and clear, "What if I also say no?"
Ye Wuque chuckled, not surprised at all, "You are much more decisive than before when we were in the snowy mountains."
Xie Zhuoning said, "Because what I regret most is that I didn't kill you when we were in the snowy mountains!"
Hearing this, Ye Wuque's eyes gradually dimmed and he smiled self-deprecatingly.
When he raised his eyes again, his expression was calm and unexpectedly composed.
"Since we can't negotiate on personal terms, let's negotiate on terms."
"The lives of 100,000 soldiers from the Nanyang Camp are exchanged for the safe exit of this palace and the Thirteenth Prince. Will Your Highness Prince Xuan agree to this deal?"
Xiao Jinxuan raised his eyes and looked at him solemnly, "What did you do?"
He smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just planted a spy in your camp in advance, and when the time comes, he will poison the drinking water."
If a foreign enemy invaded, the local soldiers would probably discover it quickly.
But what if the person who poisoned the person was the person in the military camp who was least likely to be suspected?
It takes time to find a traitor among a hundred thousand people.
By the time they find out, they probably won't know how many people have died.
It depends on whether they can afford the price.
"He really has a backup plan." Xie Zhuoning frowned, but was not surprised.
You can say Ye Wuque is cruel or perverted, but the fact that he was able to escape from Northern Qi and return to Western Chu, and to kill himself among a group of princes, proves that he is not a man without strategy.
Hundreds of thousands of lives depend on Xiao Jinxuan's thoughts. He is putting Xiao Jinxuan on the fire!
She has to be the bad guy.
Xie Zhuoning hesitated for a moment and shouted, "Xiao Jinxuan, don't listen to him. Letting him go is like letting a tiger return to the mountains. When the time comes, it will cause chaos and thousands of people will die. It is better to pay a little price now and kill him in Daye! I will let A Yu go to the Nanshan camp to detoxify and save people!"
Ye Wuque narrowed his eyes, "Xiao Cao'er, have you ever thought about this? If you kill me, Daye and Xichu will definitely go to war!"
"Daye and Western Chu have signed a peace treaty, and you came to Daye secretly. Who can prove that you died here? What's more, if you die, several princes of Western Chu might even thank us!"
"Hahahaha...it seems like you really hate me and really want to kill me."
"Unless, add one more condition. Western Chu agrees not to go to war with Daye for ten years, nor to cooperate with Northern Qi!"
After talking for a long time, I'm waiting for him here.
Ye Wuque immediately smiled, "Xiao Cao'er is really smart, he fights for every penny."
He had clearly decided to make a deal, but he acted as if he was going to kill him, just to get more bargaining chips.
"It's not that I can't agree to this condition, but aren't you afraid that I will regret it after I agree to it?"
Xie Zhuoning was not worried. "It's okay. I will let Ah Yu give you the antidote to the Immaculate Flower over ten years. If you regret it, you will still die!"
He has a backup plan, doesn't she?
Ye Wuque couldn't help but laugh.
It really is karma. I was saved by her in the past, but now I fall into her hands again.
"Okay, I will agree to your conditions. But, can you control others?"
He glanced at Xiao Jinxuan with a half-smile and spoke in a deep voice.
Xie Zhuoning really admired him. Even after being stabbed in the vitals by her and being poisoned and bleeding, he still didn't forget to provoke her even in such a state.
Xiao Jinxuan felt murderous intent in his heart, but he also understood why Xie Zhuoning wanted to negotiate terms with Ye Wuque.
How absurd it would be for the generals who fought for Daye and died on the battlefield. If they did not die on the battlefield but died in such a situation instead, how absurd it would be?
Not to mention that those generals all have families, and it is not a wise move to bury tens of thousands of lives with Ye Wuque.
This is definitely not the time to dismantle her stage.
Suppressing all emotions, Xiao Jinxuan spoke calmly, "We are husband and wife, she is my princess, and her words naturally represent my opinion!"
Couple? Princess?
Xie Zhuoning was still a little dazed after hearing these words.
Yang Lie and Ling Feng came in with their men and bowed to the two of them. "Your Highness and Princess, except for Thirteen, all the shadow guards outside the courtyard have been strangled!"
Thirteen's situation was not much better either. One of his arms was cut off, and the blood gushing out from the broken wound almost turned him into a bloody man.
Ye Wuque quickly took action and pressed the major acupoints on his body to stop the bleeding.
I originally wanted to delay it for a while, even if it meant reaching a deal, at the cost of causing them to lose some men.
Seeing this, Ye Wuque sighed and stopped.
He said, "The traitor is Zhao Yi."
"Zhao Yi?! How could it be her?!" Yang Lie looked shocked and obviously couldn't believe it.
"Because she is unwilling to give up."
This type of people is the best to utilize.
As long as you make her promise, she will do anything for you without any bottom line.
"So what did you promise her?"
Ye Wuque glanced at him with a strange expression, thinking that he seemed to be asking a useless question, "Of course, he killed Song Yuqiu for her."
Although he had already anticipated this, Yang Lie still couldn't help shaking his body, "Why..."
How did things turn out like this?
Xiao Jinxuan got the answer and immediately looked at Wen Yan, saying in a deep and powerful voice, "Take your men to arrest Zhao Yi immediately!"
"I obey your orders!"
"I'll go too." Yang Lie suddenly said in a firm tone.
This evil fate was caused by him, so it would be better for him to deal with it personally.
Xiao Jinxuan looked at him deeply and nodded.
The two of them immediately took their people away.
In exchange, Song Yuqiu also took out an antidote and handed it to Ye Wuque.
Xie Zhuoning said: "I will send people to deliver the remaining antidotes to Xichu every year."
"good."
Ye Wuque stared at Xie Zhuoning. Although many words were on his lips, they ended up being just one word.
"Someone, send the Crown Prince of Chu back to his country!" Xiao Jinxuan stood directly in front of him, blocking his line of sight, with an intimidating aura.
Seeing this, Ye Wuque chuckled, "It seems that His Royal Highness Prince Xuan is very unwilling to fail to kill me."
Xiao Jinxuan's brows were grim and full of murderous intent, "It's too late."
"Then, I will be waiting for you, my dear master."
After saying this, Ye Wuque and the Thirteenth Master and Servant left, dragging their broken bodies.
Seeing this, Xie Zhuoning was still worried, "We have to send someone to follow them and see them return with our own eyes, so as to avoid another..."
Before she could finish her words, she was suddenly hugged tightly.
The force was so great and so fierce, as if it was out of control, trying to massage her flesh and bones until they became one with him.
Xie Zhuoning was strangled so hard that he looked up and saw Xiao Jinxuan's bloodshot eyes. Even his body was shaking slightly.
She was startled for a moment, then smiled, "Xiao Jinxuan, I'm back."
