Chapter 106: Death penalty can be avoided and life penalty cannot be avoided
Ye Feng took back his King's Token and looked down at the man at his feet, his expression still indifferent.
"Let me ask you one last time, where is the King of the South Realm now? Is he really in seclusion?"
Commander Xia dared to hide anything, so he immediately said: "Back to the King of the North, the King of the South has been promoting seclusion to the outside world three years ago, and has not shown his face so far. As for the specific situation, I don't know!"
"I don't want to hide it deliberately, but I really don't know. I would like to ask the King of the North to investigate."
Ye Feng nodded slightly and asked again: "What state was the King of the South Realm in before he went into seclusion? Did he do anything unusual?"
Commander Xia said: "The King of the South Realm reached the eighth level of Hua Jin eight years ago. I don't know what level he was in before retreating. At that time, the King of the South Realm conquered the Hundred Thousand Mountains of the South Realm in an attempt to wipe out the Gu Poison Sect. After returning, there was not much
He said that he immediately announced the retreat, and his subordinates had not seen the King of the South at that time, so they did not know of any unusual behavior."
Ye Feng didn't speak again, just thinking deeply.
The other party's words did not contain any useful information, but Ye Feng vaguely guessed that the South King must have encountered an accident when he sent troops to destroy the Gu Du Sect, otherwise it would not have been possible for him to retreat in a hurry after returning.
In the past five years, it is precisely because the King of the Southern Territory has been in seclusion that the major commanders in the Northern Territory now compete with each other and even occasionally have frictions.
What's more, the nine regions of the Southern Territory are now working on their own affairs, and there are faint signs that they don't take the Southern Territory King seriously!
And these are not what Ye Feng saw. Even though the southern border and the northern border are separated and belong to different regions, as the king of the northern border, now that he has arrived in the southern border, he has to take care of this matter.
Sima Zhantian said: "My lord, what should I do with this guy? If he dares to commit any crime, I will kill him directly and then take his head to the south!"
Xiao Chuanqi also said: "The majesty of a king cannot be desecrated. Lord, please give the order!"
When Commander Na Xia heard this, his whole body went cold. At this time, he no longer begged, but just looked at the young man in the wheelchair.
Although the other party was sitting in a wheelchair, the pressure on him was heavier than a mountain.
Ye Feng spoke again: "Let me ask you, in which year did you enter the southern border?"
Commander Xia didn't know why the Northern King asked such a question, but he still replied: "Back to the Northern King, my subordinates entered the Southern Territory at the age of eighteen. It has been twenty-four years."
"I remember that fifteen years ago, the ancient Yue Kingdom on the southern border took advantage of the death of the old southern king to invade on a large scale. Did you go on an expedition at that time, did you go into battle to kill the enemy, and did you kill the invading enemies with your own hands?"
When Commander Xia heard this, although he was kneeling, his waist suddenly straightened, and he said in a deep voice: "Back to the King of the North, talking about that battle that year, my subordinates did go on an expedition. At that time, I served as the leader of the vanguard team.
, once led his team members to kill four enemy squads with his own hands."
"My subordinate once killed eight enemies with his own hands. This is recorded on the Southern Border Military Merit List. We only need to send someone to check!"
Ye Feng sighed slightly and said: "After all, you have personally killed the enemy in battle, and you can be regarded as a hard-blooded man in the army. In this case, I will exempt you from the death penalty!"
Although Xiao Chuanqiu and Sima Zhantian, who were standing on the left and right, were still a little angry after hearing this, they did not speak again. They knew that the most important thing in the life of the King of the North was the soldiers who had fought bloody battles on the battlefield.
Xiao Chuanqi said: "Although you can avoid the death penalty, you cannot escape the living penalty. You have such a mouth. You just came in and you kept croaking to disturb the Lord!"
"Yes, I understand my mistake. Thank you to the King of the North. Thank you to the King of the North for your magnanimity!"
After Commander Xia finished speaking, he stretched out his hands and slapped his face repeatedly. Soon, his long horse face became swollen, and finally there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and even his front teeth were knocked out.
This guy is a ruthless person even if you don’t know it!
"Okay, get up!" Ye Feng said.
Commander Xia was granted amnesty, thanked him again and again, and finally stood up.
After thinking for a while, Commander Xia still asked: "By the way, Mr. Northern King, you are the Lord of the North, why did you suddenly come to the South?"
"Be brave, is it your job to ask about King Bei's schedule?" Xiao Chuanqiu shouted coldly.
"Yes, I know my mistake!"
Commander Xia quickly handed over his hand. At the same time, he couldn't help but wonder, hadn't his scar healed and he had forgotten the pain? Why bother asking?
Ye Feng looked at him and chuckled: "Tell me, I'm so good, why did I suddenly come to your southern border?"
Not many people know about the attack and murder on the outskirts of King Gyeonggi in the North more than three months ago. It is estimated that only the top figures will hear about it. However, the matter is so important that these big figures will not say much.
.
What's more, this matter is likely to involve multiple forces, and people who want to know some inside information will not tell it, lest they get burned.
Ye Feng knew that at this moment in the imperial capital, there must be many eyes hiding in the dark and looking at him. Some of these people may be regretful, but most of them are probably gloating about his misfortune, and of course there are also vicious ones.
The situation in the imperial capital seems to be calm at present, but those ancient noble families, especially the powerful ones, are all looking at whether he, the King of the Southern Territory, can successfully return to the Northern Territory.
Ye Feng was not in a hurry. Since the other party wanted to watch a show, he would put on a big show for them next!
Commander Xia thought for a long time, and suddenly he seemed to have an idea, so he said: "The King of the North is busy with everything, and now he comes to the South. Naturally, it cannot be for no reason, so my subordinates boldly guessed that the King of the North probably came for the King of the South.
I wonder if your guess is correct?"
Ye Feng couldn't help but smile and said: "I can't tell, but you are quite clever. Now that you have guessed my intention, what should you do next? I don't need to tell you anymore, right?"
Commander Xia quickly said: "My subordinates understand that the Northern Territory and the Southern Territory share the control of the whole world. The kings of each territory are not allowed to enter the base camp of other jurisdictions unless there is something urgent. My subordinates guess that the King of the Northern Territory is planning to go to the base camp next.
.”
Speaking of this, Commander Xia raised his head and looked at the youngest and most potential king since the founding of the country, waiting for the other party's reply.
Ye Feng did not give an answer, but said directly: "Go on."
Commander Xia suddenly felt a headache, thinking that it was really not easy to talk to the King of the North, and it was difficult to grasp the other person's thoughts and motives.
Commander Xia thought about it for a while and said: "Now the King of the Southern Territory is in seclusion. The major commanders in the Southern Territory are fighting with each other. The Lords of the Nine Territories in the Territory are even more likely to fall apart. In addition, the Gu Poison Sect is becoming more and more fierce, and then there is Gu Yue.
country, and even intends to invade and provoke!"
"Therefore, my subordinates are bold and, together with the other two commanders, specially invite the King of the North to enter the Southern Base Camp to take charge of the overall situation!"
"Good!" Ye Feng said, with a smile finally showing on his face. After saying so much, the other party finally did not disappoint him.
