But Mu Zihan said he surrendered, so what reason was there to kill them now?
"Then please ask the regent to hand over the power of the Black Flag Army and temporarily put him in prison to await disposal." Wei Ning said in a loud voice.
"No!" On the side of the Black Flag Army, Sima Qing and others shouted anxiously. Handing over military power was already a huge concession, but to put the regent in prison was simply too presumptuous!
Wei Ning raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "If you are not convinced, it is not impossible to fight to the death tonight!"
Sima Qing had no choice but to shut up and look at Mu Zihan expectantly, "Your Majesty, I am willing to die to protect Your Majesty Zhou Quan!"
They tried their best to fight out, escort the prince to the border, join the black flag army, and then enter the imperial capital. Who will win?
But Mu Zihan raised his hand to stop him, "I have made up my mind, put down my weapons and surrender!"
As he said that, he raised his head and met his unfocused eyes. He still had a noble demeanor, and the defeated general also had the cold arrogance that was born to look down on all living beings.
Wei Ning knew that he wanted to protect the Black Flag Army, but she didn't want to kill them all. This was the strongest force in the Qinglong Empire and had been feared by all countries for many years.
If the Black Flag Army is wiped out, then there will not only be internal troubles, but also external troubles.
She is not stupid, and of course she will not bring herself bigger enemies.
She only allowed Mu Zihan, Qin Feng and the three generals Hufu to be imprisoned. The rest were temporarily handed over to Situ Yao to command the retreat, collect weapons, and return them all to the camp outside the city for custody!
At this time, Marquis Zhenwei was still holding the emperor hostage. Duanmulei was so frightened that his legs weakened when he saw Mu Zihan appear. Then when he saw Marquis Zhenwei being seriously injured, he became even more confused.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince..." Duan Mulei looked at Wei Ning in fear, feeling that this Crown Prince was so scary for the first time.
It turned out that she had been pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger in front of him, trying to bring down Duanmu and the family in one fell swoop, but he didn't realize that she had done so many abominable things.
Wei Ning looked at him coldly, glanced at the emperor he was holding hostage with a knife, and said: "Little Marquis, you are holding my father hostage now, you know that you are guilty of treason and will be quartered by five horses!"
Duanmulei's hand shook, and the knife made a wound on the emperor's neck.
The emperor looked at Wei Ning calmly. He had seen everything just now and already knew that this son was unusual. Listening to her tone again, he knew that she hated him deeply.
After so many years of indifference, at first she came to him crying and complained about how she was bullied and treated coldly, but he was addicted to pills and beauties and thought the prince was being unreasonable, so he kicked her out and never saw her again.
Now that I see her growing up like this, I feel an indescribable feeling in my heart. Is it fear? No, no, it should be resignation...
"As long as His Highness the Crown Prince does not kill me, I, I will let the Emperor go immediately. I will never dare to be rebellious!" Duan Mulei said eagerly.
Wei Ning smiled coldly and said: "I don't have the final say whether to kill you or not, it's my father who has the final say."
Duanmulei's hands shook again, unable to control his fear.
At this time, Princess Qingtong rushed forward and said: "Duanmulei! Let the emperor go, I will spare your life!"
Wei Ning frowned, what a woman!
She had never thought about letting the emperor live. The old emperor was ignorant and ignorant. How could the emperor not be the culprit for the tragedy that had happened to the prince and princess for so many years?
