Volume 1: Lunar New Year Rising Chapter 73: Continue South
The soldiers began to massacre one-sidedly, and the screams could not be heard. When King An escaped, he only took his son and a few cronies with him, and most of his family members and servants of the palace stayed here.
He took away his three sons, leaving only his wife, concubines, and daughter. He used his wife, daughter, and family members to thwart the pursuing troops of the emperor or the prince.
His move had a miraculous effect, and the prince's army was indeed delayed here. But he also made a mistake in his guess, and the emperor issued an order to kill the whole family. The family members of Prince An's family and more than 300 bodyguards were all killed, and blood flowed on the ground.
into a river.
Wang Diandian fainted and fell to the ground, and was carried into a carriage by Wang Bo. There was also a frightened middle-aged woman in the carriage. She was Wang Diandian's biological mother, Aunt Xue.
After Wang Bo handed Diandian to her, he returned to his carriage. Yang Jiong and Zhao Xiangyi were drinking tea in the large carriage. Xiaocui raised the curtains and took a look at the scene outside. She was shocked and the hand holding the tea began to tremble.
.Have you ever seen a hellish bloody scene before a teenage girl in purdah?
When Xiangyi heard the screams, she couldn't bear to look at Yang Jiong, hoping that he would go out and stop Wang Bo. But Yang Jiong shook his head and said: "This is a struggle for imperial power, and someone will always become a victim. Even if I save them, how will they be settled?"
What about them? The emperor treats people with sincerity, you can't let me go to Wang Chuan."
Wang Bo got into the carriage. Yang Jiong glanced at him and said, "If there is no order from the emperor to kill the whole family, will you let them go?"
Wang Bo hesitated for a while, and finally nodded affirmatively and said: "The rebellion was actually caused by King An and a few cronies. What crime does the family have?"
Yang Jiong said: "You can disobey your father's order and keep Wang Diandian and her mother. Since you think these people are innocent, why don't you let them all go?"
Wang Bo sighed: "Even if I were the prince, I wouldn't dare to disobey him! The road to imperial power has been full of blood and violence since ancient times. If I change places, if An Laogou gains power, will he let me go?"
He glanced out the window and said, "I can only blame them for being born in the wrong place and holding the wrong thigh." In a few days, Wang Bo matured a lot, as if he had lost his youthfulness and childishness overnight.
Yang Jiong smiled and said: "Then work hard to be a good emperor. When you become the emperor, remember not to forget your original intention and your true nature."
Wang Bo nodded seriously and said: "What the eldest brother is saying is that the family ties in the emperor's family are weak, and the blood and violence surrounding the imperial power are always bloody. I have been taught by my father since I was a child to govern the country with benevolence and righteousness. The reason why King An was arrested this time
The reason for destroying the family is because it touches the foundation of imperial power. From now on, Xiaocui and I will only have one son.
That’ll be fine.”
Xiaocui was drinking tea, her face flushed with embarrassment. Yang Jiong heard what he said was good and nodded affirmatively. But the last sentence almost made him spit out a mouthful of tea.
He smiled and said, "I'm not talking about having thousands of women when you ascend the throne and become emperor. I'm just talking about you now. Will your father allow you to marry just one woman, Xiaocui? If there are too many women, who can you promise to only have one son?"
Wang Bo touched his nose with his hand and looked at Xiao Cui ruthlessly. Then he said to Yang Jiong: "Big brother is so powerful that if anyone forces me to marry a woman, I will ask big brother to support me."
Yang Jiong rolled his eyes at him and said, "Based on your nature, you would never leave flowers without a load of cow dung every day, so don't say these hypocritical words."
Uncle Wang said from outside the car: "Your Highness, it's time to set off."
The army continued to move south, but did not catch up with King An's carriage until dark. In the early morning of the next day, after painstaking investigation by sentries, traces of King An were finally discovered. King An and his entourage were escaping to the south in four carriages.
After chasing for several hours, it was already noon, and another sentry came to report. King An's carriage team split into two, and continued to go south and east.
After Wang Bo discussed with Uncle Wang, he went to ask Yang Jiong for advice, and finally decided to divide the troops into two groups. Uncle Wang and the other nine Xiantian realms led an army of 10,000 to the east to pursue. The prince led 10,000 people and ten Xiantian realms.
Continue to go south. The prince is an important weapon of the country, and Yang Jiong and Wang Bo accompany him all the way.
After chasing for several more hours, it was completely dark and still could not catch up with King An's convoy. Ten thousand troops camped to rest. The tents were dotted like mushrooms in the dense woods. Several Xiantian realm generals sent people to patrol the surrounding area.
, flying up, startling countless birds in the forest.
After dinner, everyone went back to the tent to rest. Yang Jiong and Zhao Xiangyi started practicing in the tent.
Wang Bo had already sent someone to deliver two boxes containing jade. Including the jade sent by the emperor, there were more than seventy pieces of five-color jade in total.
According to the fact that the first five pieces of jade have been absorbed, it is equivalent to five years of cultivation. The absorption of the heaven and earth energy in these more than seventy pieces of jade should be equivalent to the progress of more than seventy years of cultivation. I don’t know what height my thoughts can reach at that time. The result
Very exciting.
Yang Jiong has been practicing according to the "Jade Emperor Sutra" chapter on leaving the body. Sometimes he looks at Xiang Yi sitting quietly next to him, and suddenly thinks of Yao Ruolan in his mind. The longer time goes by, the deeper he misses Yao Ruolan.
To be able to write a cultivation manual like "The Jade Emperor Sutra", Yao Ruolan's identity must be extraordinary. Maybe she is not from this world. With Yang Jiong's ability, how can we find her?
Woolen cloth?
The speed of absorbing the vitality in the jade became faster and faster. It was early in the morning when the jade in his hand turned into powder, and the observation range of his mind expanded by half a foot.
Yang Jiong enveloped half of the camp with the power of his mind. Every plant and tree in the camp, as well as the murmurs and breathing in the tent, were all in Yang Jiong's mind.
His mind swept over the tents of Wang Bo and several innate masters. They were all still sleeping. When he swept over Wang Diandian's tent, he saw a soldier standing outside the tent. In the tent, Wang Diandian and her mother were sitting on the ground, and there was a general with a beard.
Stand opposite them.
When Yang Jiong was about to move his mind to observe other places, he saw Wang Diandian handing the general a note. The general put the note away and pinched Wang Diandian's face. He walked out of the tent and handed the note to Wang Diandian.
The soldiers outside the tent turned back into the tent.
The soldier who took the note quietly ran outside the camp, and soon ran out of the range of Yang Jiong's thoughts. Inside the tent, Wang Diandian had already taken off all his clothes, got under the quilt and was shaking slightly nervously.
The bearded general smiled at Aunt Xue, took off his armor and clothes, and got into Wang Diandian's quilt.
The bearded general came closer, and Wang Diandian's body trembled and stepped back. She pressed the quilt nervously, and the corner of her mouth was bitten and bleeding. The bearded general suddenly pulled away the quilt, grabbed her and forced her down.
Wang Diandian was extremely nervous and kept twisting his body to avoid it. The bearded general failed several times, and his eyes turned red with anxiety and said: "If you don't obey me, the matter that the prince told you will be cancelled. I will do it in the future."
I will not help you deliver the letter, and I will tell the prince tomorrow about your secret contact with the prince."
Yang Jiong withdrew from the silence and reached the outside of Wang Diandian's tent in a few seconds. He was about to lift the tent door and go in when he heard Aunt Xue say: "Son! Women will have to pass this test sooner or later. General Song
At such a young age, he is already in the innate realm, and to be secretly arranged by your father to be placed in the forbidden palace, he is naturally an extraordinary talent."
"This matter will be difficult to succeed without his help. In the future, if your father's plan is successful, General Song's status cannot be underestimated, and he will also be your husband. One day later or one day earlier makes no difference. We are now fortunate to have General Song taking care of us."
, then don’t hesitate.”
Wang Diandian stopped resisting. The bearded General Song seized the opportunity and sank his waist. Wang Diandian couldn't help but let out a scream.
The bearded General Song nervously stretched out his hand to cover her mouth. Aunt Xue sighed softly and turned her head away.
