"Father, just now the man named Su said that he wanted to use us to sacrifice to God——"
Among the Ruyang Wang family who were escorted back to the dungeon, Wang Baobao was the first to be unable to remain calm.
"Why are you panicking?"
King Ruyang had a bad temper and was still immersed in the unknown anger of being defeated by Su Mingzhe. When he saw his son lose his temper, he immediately scolded:
"A great man just wants to die. I only regret that my father can't share His Majesty's worries and kill the evil thieves!"
"Brother, please stop saying a few words. Even if we die, our family will not be lonely together if we are together!"
Zhao Min was the first to calm down after learning that her whole family would be sacrificed to God.
Seeing his brother being scolded by his father, Zhao Min quickly pulled his brother to sit aside and comforted him softly.
When Wang Baobao saw that his father and sister were both fearless, he lowered his head in shame and murmured:
"Minmin, my eldest brother is not afraid of death, but he is unwilling to die in such a useless way!"
…
Just as the family was talking about their family love, two teams of people walked in outside the prison door:
"The general has an order to summon Prince Ruyang and Princess Minmin to the banquet!"
Wang Baobao listened and asked curiously:
"Why isn't my father the king?"
The visitor glanced at King Ruyang, who was still angry, and then said:
"General Zhang Dingbian said that the King of Ruyang is very angry at the moment, and he is afraid that he will not be able to eat any banquet, so he is asked to rest peacefully in the cell."
"I don't care about this thief's banquet!"
King Ruyang snorted angrily and turned to face the wall.
It was obvious that after a period of emotional catharsis, he had calmed down and was ready to die for his country.
However, although he accepted his fate, he still wanted his son and daughter to survive.
Then he didn't stop him, and his son and daughter went to the banquet.
Zhao Min was very smart and aware of his father's thoughts, so he took his brother out of the prison and prepared for the banquet.
…
Not long after.
Zhao Min and Wang Baobao were brought back to the General's Mansion.
Wang Baobao was sent to the west wing, but Zhao Min was taken to the backyard.
When Zhao Min saw this, he immediately asked in shock:
"Didn't your general invite us brothers and sisters to a banquet? Why should we be separated?"
The soldier leading the way didn't know how to answer. At this moment, a graceful and beautiful young woman walked out of the backyard and smiled softly:
"Princess Minmin, before going to the banquet, I want you brothers and sisters to freshen up and change your clothes. It's not good to dress up like this to attend the dinner!"
After Zhao Min heard the explanation, although he still felt wary, he couldn't say anything more.
…
The beautiful young woman led Zhao Min into the backyard bath. After bathing and changing clothes, they came to a flower hall and saw that there was indeed a sumptuous banquet in the flower hall.
However, the alarm in Zhao Min's heart was louder.
Because this is the backyard flower hall of the General's Mansion, and according to etiquette, her brother Wang Baobao will never be brought here to dine.
As expected.
After a while, two more women came in, together with the beautiful young woman from before, and accompanied Zhao Min to sit down and drink.
Seeing that there was no man, Zhao Min's big bright eyes flashed with cunning and wisdom, and she asked with a smile:
"May I ask the three sisters, what do you call them?"
The beautiful young woman with long legs in the lead answered first:
"I am Ji Ruxue!"
The beautiful young woman with a slim waist and abundant fruits nodded slightly at Zhao Min before speaking:
"I am Wu Lifang!"
The last woman with slightly higher cheekbones and dressed as a chivalrous woman said with a cold expression:
"Ding Minjun!"
"Ji Ruxue, Wu Lifeng, Ding Minjun?"
Zhao Min quickly searched through the memories in his mind and quickly found the corresponding character:
"Could Sister Ji be the 'Yuanyang Dao' of the Sanjiang Gang?"
"Yes, I used to be a member of the Sanjiang Gang, and I also had the nickname 'Yuanyang Dao'."
Ji Ruxue didn't expect that Zhao Min, a Tatar princess, would remember her name, and she couldn't help but look at her differently.
"That Sister Wu must be the daughter of the Wufeng Sword Clan?"
Although Zhao Min was asking a question, his words were precise and did not allow Wu Lifang to refute.
Then, she looked at Ding Minjun and asked in surprise:
"Miss Ding, she should be the disciple of the Emei sect's Master Miu. The Sanjiang Gang, Wufeng Dao, and the Emei sect are all from the far north and far apart. How could the three sisters join the traitor Su Mingzhe?"
When the three women heard Zhao Min's disrespectful words towards Su Mingzhe, their expressions immediately turned cold:
"Princess, the traitor you are talking about is our husband!"
Zhao Min's expression was startled, and there was even more astonishment in his eyes.
After a while, she was shocked and said:
"Sister Ji, the three of you...are all Su Mingzhe's women?"
"good."
Ji Ruxue looked at Zhao Min's gorgeous face and suddenly smiled coldly:
"Princess Minmin, if you want to sow discord, please give me some advice and let it go! My husband-in-law is a brave and heroic man. He has now conquered the entire province of Henan, Shaanxi, Sichuan, Huguang, and Jiangxi.
All four lands can be captured in an instant."
"The Yuan Dynasty has occupied the Central Plains for many years. It has become corrupt and incompetent, and has long lost the support of the people. Among them, the Tianying Sect is causing chaos among merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the White Lotus Sect is causing chaos in Zhongshu Province, and the Ming Sect is in Gansu. The Yuan Dynasty can no longer send out a single soldier.
Come to Henan... Now, all I have to do is wait for my husband-in-law to completely control the five provinces, and then you will be expelled from the Central Plains!"
After listening to Ji Ruxue's words, and then looking at the three girls from Emei, Wufengdao, and Sanjiang Gang, Zhao Min suddenly realized that he was unable to refute.
Recalling that this time Su Mingzhe rebelled, Yuan Ting sent an army of 100,000 to his father, which had squeezed the last drop of blood from the court.
And this 100,000-strong army was sent into the encirclement of Su Mingzhe by King Ruyang. They were defeated ten times in ten battles without any results.
If Su Mingzhe really takes advantage of the situation and takes Shaanxi, Sichuan, Huguang, Jiangxi and other places, I am afraid that the world will really change his surname to Su.
"Princess Minmin, my husband said that those who understand current affairs are heroes. King Ruyang is a generation of talents. He should not die for the corrupt Yuan Dynasty."
Seeing that Zhao Min was shocked by her words, Ji Ruxue continued to act as a lobbyist:
"If the princess is willing to persuade King Ruyang to surrender, when my army breaks the Yuan Dynasty in the future, she is willing to let King Ruyang gather the Mengwu surrender soldiers and become the Khan of the grassland, so as to serve as a bridge of friendship between the two ethnic groups."
"I need to think about this!"
After learning that Su Mingzhe had made so many preparations for the rebellion, Zhao Min felt extremely depressed and had no appetite at all when facing a table of delicious food.
Compared to Zhao Min, Wang Baobao, who accepted the banquet on the other side, was even more unbearable.
Especially after learning that Su Mingzhe had sent six sons and led hundreds of thousands of troops to 'attack' Shaanxi, Sichuan, Huguang, and Jiangxi, he felt even more uneasy and left the banquet early.
…
At night.
Zhao Min was sent back to prison. When he saw his elder brother coming back one step ahead of him, he relayed to the two what he heard at the banquet:
"Father, Su Thief actually took the three girls Ji Ruxue, Wu Lifeng, and Ding Minjun as concubines. It seems that he has already made a deal with the martial arts in Jiangxi, Shaanxi, and Sichuan. I'm afraid these three places can't really keep it.
Live."
"Huguang and Yunnan should not be able to defend themselves either!"
Wang Baobao said in frustration:
"At the banquet just now, I saw the six surnames of the Duan family, the Sha family, and the Yang family. These six surnames are the local emperors of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Huguang. If they support the Su thief, the Su thief will achieve great things!"
After hearing what his children said, King Ruyang couldn't help but feel disheartened about Yuan Ting's future.
