Chapter 372: Disassembling a Part Every Day and Offering It
Qi Yuxuan, Li Cunxu, and Leng Feng launched an attack on Zhu Wen, but Zhu Wen, as expected of a seasoned veteran, remained calm in the face of danger.
"Clang"
He twisted under the dragon throne, and a secret passage door beneath it opened.
Zhu Wen quickly jumped down, and the secret passage door closed.
Qi Yuxuan, Li Cunxu, and Leng Feng caught up and tried to open the secret passage door, but they couldn't open it no matter what they did.
“The secret passage door is locked. It seems Zhu Wen is indeed an old fox,” Qi Yuxuan said.
"Fortunately, my princess is clever. We split into several groups and took several precautions, but that old fox still managed to get away."
As Li Cunxu spoke, he came over to untie the diamond rope.
“Ziyue, this rope is made of a special material. I used it on Yuxuan before, and he couldn’t untie it,” Li Cunxu said.
Seeing that the ropes were still untied, Qi Yuxuan angrily said:
"Li Cunxu, are you even capable? You're ruthless when dealing with us, but when it comes to real combat, you're really no good."
Qiu Ziyue was uncomfortable being tied up with ropes and said anxiously:
“Cunxu, if you still can’t solve this, I’ll divorce you.”
“Yes, divorce him. He’s a mistress, he should have been out of the picture long ago,” Qi Yuxuan said, going along with the flow.
Meanwhile, Zhao Wanqing, whose hands and feet were also bound, was also anxious:
"Stop worrying about Twilight Sparkle, stop arguing and untie the ropes, my hands and feet are going numb."
Qi Yuxuan and Li Cunxu immediately said:
"Stop arguing. I must untie my wife first, then you can wait a bit."
Zhao Wanqing was furious: "This is outrageous! Are you taking advantage of my single status?"
Qi Yuxuan and Li Cunxu said, "It's good that you know."
"I'm so angry! I want to go back and find my little shop assistant!" Zhao Wanqing shouted.
Seeing this, Leng Feng quickly came over to help Zhao Wanqing untie the ropes:
"We need to speed things up. We won't be able to handle a large group of people coming later, especially since Twilight Sparkle didn't bring her best equipment."
Arutai and Xiaowan both came over to untie the ropes, but they couldn't get them free.
Just when everyone was worried,
"Get out of the way, you're in my way," Li Cunxu said.
Qi Yuxuan was about to lose his temper when he saw Li Cunxu pull out the pistol that Qiu Ziyue had given him.
"I refuse to believe you're harder than a bullet."
With a "bang," the steel rope pierced a hole.
Immediately afterwards, Li Cunxu fired another shot in the same spot.
"Snapped"
The diamond rope broke.
Qiu Ziyue quickly untied the ropes.
Li Cunxu then untied Zhao Wanqing's ropes in the same manner.
"Wife, you gave him a small pistol but not me. You're being too biased," Qi Yuxuan said.
"Yu Xuan, you still have time to be jealous? I'll make you ten of those later."
Qiu Ziyue quickly straightened her clothes.
While cautiously observing her surroundings, she said to Qi Yuxuan:
"The soldiers are here, let's get out of here quickly."
Zhao Wanqing flexed her wrists and said softly:
"That rope was indeed very strong. If it weren't for Cunxu's accurate marksmanship, it would have been difficult to escape so quickly."
As soon as she finished speaking, the footsteps outside the hall grew closer and closer.
Arutai gripped his knife tightly, his eyes sharp.
"We should take the initiative and catch them off guard!"
Qiu Ziyue spoke loudly to the beauties in the hall:
"Listen up, ladies! Now is not the time to be afraid, let's escape together!"
The beauties looked at each other, but after seeing Qiu Ziyue's determined eyes, they all mustered up their courage and stepped forward.
At that moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a squad of fully armed guards rushed in.
"Grab them! Don't let a single one escape!"
The leading general shouted the order.
Qiu Ziyue sneered.
"Since you've delivered yourselves to our doorstep, don't blame us for being impolite. Yu Xuan, Cun Xu, serve us well!"
"Yes, my wife, I obey."
"Yes, Your Highness, as you command."
Li Cunxu held a pistol in his hand, aimed at the nearest guard, and pulled the trigger—"bang," the man fell to the ground.
At the same time, Qi Yuxuan was not to be outdone. He quickly drew the short knife he carried with him and engaged in a fierce battle with several guards.
Leng Feng, on the other hand, fought with a swift sword.
"Everyone, follow me and charge out!"
Qiu Ziyue directed the beauties to move towards the palace gate.
Xiao Wan and Arutai were responsible for protecting the left and right flanks respectively, preventing the guards from launching a sneak attack.
Inside the chaotic hall, shouts of killing and gunfire rose and fell.
However, led by Qiu Ziyue and others, the beauties gradually broke through the encirclement and ran towards freedom.
"Ziyue, let's go quickly," said Qi Yuxuan beside him.
"Alright, don't rush. I'll leave a letter for that old scoundrel Zhu Wen. He'll see it."
Qiu Ziyue quickly placed a pre-written letter on the table.
Afterwards, they led dozens of beauties away quickly, disappearing into the vast night.
A few days later, Zhu Wen realized that the person had gone far away and rushed back through the secret passage in a panic.
He unfolded a letter on his desk and began to read:
"This letter is personally addressed by His Majesty Zhu Wen:"
By the time this letter reaches you, you may have already escaped and returned home.
However, you should not become complacent because of this, for the situation in the world is constantly changing, and victory or defeat cannot be easily determined.
I have important news to report: We have captured Your Excellency's beloved son, Zhu Yougui.
This action was not a provocative act, but rather a last resort.
Your lord posts notices every day, ordering the execution of hundreds of innocent women. Such atrocities are outrageous and intolerable to heaven and earth!
Therefore, we hereby issue this warning to Your Majesty—
If you still insist on slaughtering the innocent, then from this day forward, for every hundred beauties you kill, we will disassemble your son into parts and offer them to you as a response.
You are a wise man; you should understand the principle of weighing the pros and cons. Do not let momentary obsession lead to the pain of separation from your loved ones.
Furthermore, I have one more piece of advice: If Your Majesty continues to harm the people and disregard their suffering,
If they lose the hearts of the people, their momentum will collapse, and they will eventually suffer the consequences.
It is well known that water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it; he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, and he who loses the hearts of the people loses the world.
I urge you to think thrice before acting, to change course, to treat the people kindly, and to ensure the stability of the nation.
Respectfully submitted by the Yu Yue Qing Xuan Feng team
After reading it, Zhu Wen slammed the letter onto the table with a loud 'bang'.
"Outrageous! In all my decades of battlefield experience, I have never seen a woman like this."
They acted unpredictably, completely outmaneuvering me. How bizarre! I'm furious!
Zhu Wen put his hands behind his back and began pacing back and forth.
"That idiot, I was even thinking of passing the crown prince position to him... With his brain, how could I possibly do that?"
"Someone come here!"
Zhu Wen pondered for a long time, then called in the guards and gave them instructions:
"Take down the notices that 'kill 100 beauties every day'."
The guard agreed.
"By the way, summon the strategist Li Zhen. I have something important to discuss with him," Zhu Wen instructed.
"Yes".
A moment later, Li Zhen arrived.
Zhu Wen spoke coldly:
"Qiu Ziyue and her gang have repeatedly challenged my authority and even dared to threaten my son! Do you have any good plans to deal with them?"
Upon hearing this, Li Zhen stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, we have tried to control the Khitan cavalry, but we have been unable to subdue them."
Even killing a hundred beauties every day failed to force Qiu Ziyue to submit.
In my opinion, these people are highly skilled in martial arts and act cunningly; it would be difficult to defeat them in a direct confrontation.
Only by sowing discord can their alliance be broken.
"Oh?"
A hint of interest flashed in Zhu Wen's eyes.
"How do you sow discord? Tell me."
