Before Yang Zhifang could speak, Xiao Tong could no longer bear it and stepped forward and roared.

"You bitch slave... We all know that my royal brother is infected with the plague... Ling Yu colluded with her brother Ling Xiang to commit treason and treason. She just wants to seize the military power while my royal brother is seriously ill!"

"Don't be fooled by her, catch Ling Yu and Ling Xiang quickly! This princess will forgive you for being deceived by her and forgive your crimes!"

Lu Nan glared at Xiao Tong angrily and roared: "Sixth Princess, you are the one who was deceived! Yang Zhifang colluded with Yang Dahu to sell rice, grains and medicinal materials to Dong Qi!"

"He is the one who collaborates with the enemy and treason. Don't be fooled by him. Let your people capture Yang Zhifang!"

Xiao Tong didn't believe it. He looked at Lu Nan mockingly and shouted: "You are a slave, have you been bribed by Ling Yu?"

"Or have you slept with Ling Yu? That's why you are so determined to help her!"

"Where is my imperial brother? Why didn't you come out? Was he killed by you?"

Seeing that Xiao Tong was still obsessed with it, Lu Nan was speechless. He gritted his teeth and looked at Ling Yu.

Ling Yu smiled and reassured: "Lu Nan, don't worry, just treat her as a barking dog and play with her if you are in the mood... to buy time for General Pei and the prince!"

Lu Nan understood that as long as Yang Zhifang didn't rush up, their mission was to defend the back mountain and wait for King Yi and others to capture General Xia.

"People on the mountain listen, hurry up and capture Ling Yu and Ling Xiang and hand over King Yi, otherwise we will attack!"

Yang Zhifang is not a fool. He brought the Sixth Princess here as a cover-up, hoping to use the Sixth Princess's identity to capture King Yi.

But after entering the village, Magistrate Yang realized that something was wrong. Ling Yu and the others retreated to the back mountain without any resistance.

What does this mean?

This shows that King Yi may not have been infected with the plague at all, and the red blisters on his body were what paralyzed them!

King Yi also sent people to rescue Ling Xiang...

As soon as the two were connected, Magistrate Yang guessed Xiao Lintian's intention!

The troops led by Xiao Lintian were unable to resist himself and General Xia.

Therefore, King Yi left Zaozhuang under the pretense of contracting the plague to deal with General Xia or seek reinforcements!

Now that Magistrate Yang saw Lu Nan and the others guarding the entrance to the back mountain, he felt that his guess was correct.

He did not panic. He had discussed countermeasures with General Xia before, and General Xia sent people to cut off all routes for reinforcements.

Anyone who is suspicious will be killed without mercy!

Even if there are fish that slip through the net and run to the frontier army for help, there are people under Deputy Commander Wu who have set up checkpoints on the road and kill them one by one!

Xiao Lintian brought these people with him. Under such tight defense, even if he got evidence of his collaboration with the enemy, he would not be able to escape.

Magistrate Yang and General Xia knew very well that their crimes were enough to punish the nine tribes. Over the years, they used the King of Wei as their backer to make money desperately.

Part of the money went to the King of Wei, but most of it fell into his own pocket.

Magistrate Yang and General Xia are both so rich that they are like uncrowned emperors. How could they allow someone to ruin their good life?

At this time, Magistrate Yang had already realized that in order to save his own glory and wealth, let alone King Yi, even if it was the emperor who came, they would risk their lives to save their own lives!

"Ling Yu, will you surrender?"

Xiao Tong saw that despite Yang Zhifang's shouting, there was still no movement from Ling Yu and the others. In order to show off her authority in front of Yang Zhifang, Xiao Tong shouted.

"Wu Wei, bring Qin Shan up!"
