Xiao Junze did not fight the enemy's troops, and the city gate opened by itself. The news has spread throughout the south of the Yangtze River.
"What should we do? Prince Yu's life or death is uncertain now. We... Shichu Wuming. If we continue to engage in this kind of meaningless resistance, I'm afraid..." The people who followed Xiao Chengen began to fight internally.
They are leaderless, these people have no backbone at all.
"Master Murong, please tell me something. Your daughter is a beloved concubine in the palace, and His Majesty almost obeys her words. You... must help us."
"At this time, it is best to take the lead and surrender, otherwise...if Xiao Junze really attacks, it will be the crime of annihilating the whole family."
"Master Murong, please save us."
Xiao Chengen fell off the cliff, and these people were completely panicked.
"Sir! Masters Chen and Liu took their families and ran away overnight! I'm afraid they fled to Dayu."
"Sir! Master Chen Shouhua also escaped with his family!"
Suddenly, everyone panicked.
"Master Murong, please save us, save us."
"Why are you panicking! They are a bunch of trash." Murong Hua snorted coldly. "If you want to survive, you must not resist stubbornly."
Murong Hua squinted his eyes, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Fortunately, he was prepared and had someone deliver a letter to Xiao Junze.
Now that Xiao Chengen's life and death are uncertain, they still have to live.
Fortunately, Murong Ling was deeply loved by Xiao Junze, which finally left a way out for the Murong family.
…
In the city.
"Your Majesty, Murong Hua asked someone to send you a secret letter."
Xiao Junze took the letter, his eyes full of darkness.
Murong Hua...
"Your Majesty, Murong Hua has led people to guard the city gate and will personally open the gate for you. All people in the city who are attached to Xiao Chengen must surrender."
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, you have completely recovered the land south of the Yangtze River."
"Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty."
"Your Majesty, although these people surrendered voluntarily, they are traitors and traitors after all. How do you plan to deal with them?" His generals were waiting for Xiao Junze's order.
Xiao Junze crushed the secret letter in his hand and spoke with cold eyes. "Nowadays, there are floods in the south of the Yangtze River, and the people are displaced and have nothing to gain. These people are making money in the south of the Yangtze River, and they also took away a lot of things from Kyoto. Send an order to confiscate all the property, except
Kill everyone except Murong Hua and hang them on the city wall to show the public!"
To pacify the land south of the Yangtze River, kill chickens to scare monkeys.
He, Xiao Junze, will never allow anyone or any official to cause trouble again.
"All the collected money will be used for disaster relief. Disaster relief is the top priority. General Gu will take charge personally and make sure nothing goes wrong." Xiao Junze got on his horse and left first.
Kyoto is the real battlefield.
He wants to go back and start a war with the powerful ministers.
Holding the reins tightly in his hands, Xiao Junze lowered his eyes and looked into the distance.
The empire of Fengtian was built by several generations of the Xiao family. Emperor Long said... The emperor's business requires a ruthless heart and a steady hand to eradicate the roots.
Empress Changsun's idea is to govern benevolently and convince people with virtue.
He, Xiao Junze, showed kindness and power at the same time. When cutting weeds, we must get rid of the roots, and kindness must be used on the edge of the sword.
Taking out the handkerchief left by Chaoyang from his chest, Xiao Junze's eyes were filled with regret.
Chaoyang...
I'm in Kyoto, waiting for you to come back.
…
Thirty-two cities, Bian Guanyu City.
This is the junction with Dayu, and businessmen from all over the world stop here, making it extremely lively.
Chaoyang looked around in surprise, with surprise in his eyes.
She had never left the summer resort since she was a child, and even though she had heard Baili talk about the outside world, she had never really seen it.
On the way to get married, Chaoyang saw the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, the wealthy and prosperous streets, and the businessmen in the Gobi Desert.
He stood curiously in front of the stall and looked at the candy man for a long time. "Candy?"
"Hey, girl, three cents a piece, five cents for you."
"Make a big one." Sensing Chaoyang's curiosity, Fuyao threw a pearl over.
The hawker looked shocked. "Son...it's a small business, but I can't get any change..."
"I'll reward you if you pinch it well, but if you pinch it badly..." Fuyao raised his eyebrows.
"Okay!" The vendor looked at Chaoyang and started to make the candy man.
"No need to spend money!" Chaoyang frowned, trying to avoid Fuyao.
"How can it be a waste of money to win a smile from a beautiful woman?" Fuyao raised his fan and blocked Chaoyang's path. "Chao'er, we have been together for a long time, why are you still avoiding me?"
"Yucheng has arrived. I don't want you to drop by, sir. Please excuse me." Chaoyang stepped back and bumped into Mu Huaicheng's arms. He almost fell down accidentally.
Mu Huaicheng stretched out his hand to hold Chaoyang in his arms and looked at Fuyao with cold eyes. "I've been bothering you for a while. I'll see you again when we are destined."
Fuyao banged her fan and smiled, then turned around and took the candy man from the vendor's hand. "Chao'er, it's yours."
Chaoyang's eyes were attracted to the candy man, and he caught it almost subconsciously.
The candy man was so lifelike that he really looked like her. "Brother, this man is so awesome."
The coldness in Mu Huaicheng's eyes dissipated, replaced by doting and gentleness. "They rely on their craftsmanship to make a living."
"It turns out that outside of Kyoto, there are really strange things everywhere..." Chaoyang's vision was a little wandering. Growing up, she and her mother were trapped in the Summer Resort. The Summer Resort was the prison for her and her mother, and it also completely trapped Chaoyang.
sky and view.
Mu Huaicheng's heart ached a little. He knew... Chaoyang had been trapped in the summer resort, and after leaving, he married into Prince Li's Mansion.
Chaoyang's attention has always been on the candy man in his hand, and he can't hide the surprise and smile in his eyes and at the corners of his mouth.
Mu Huaicheng's eyes were always subconsciously attracted to Chaoyang. After so much, she was just a young girl who had just gotten hairpins.
Children's temperament is the norm.
Sometimes, Chaoyang is smart, calm, and sensible enough to make people feel heartbroken.
Fuyao also looked at Chaoyang thoughtfully, with a smile in his eyes.
"Master... they are about to leave seclusion. After they come out of seclusion, they will be the soldiers of Dayu's bride. Do we really want to follow them?" The secret guard stood beside Fuyao and spoke in a low voice.
Fuyao stopped and did not continue to follow.
…
Station.
Chaoyang looked at the candy man in his hand thoughtfully, such a beautiful little man... it would be a pity to lose it.
But if she is leaving, what will she be able to keep?
With a deep sigh, Chaoyang placed the candy man on the tea table in the room and turned to leave.
"Chao'er..." Behind him, Fuyao climbed awkwardly out of the window, holding the window sill with both hands, as if he was about to fall.
Chaoyang frowned. "Why does Mr. Fuyao like to climb through windows?"
"Chao'er, give me a hand." Fuyao stretched out his hand towards Chaoyang, with a pleading look on his evil face.
Chaoyang stretched out his hand and pulled the person up. "Young Master, please leave here."
"Chaoyang, come with me." Chaoyang was about to turn around when Fuyao grabbed Chaoyang's wrist. "I promise that I will not let you enter the palace. I will take you to see all the beautiful scenery in the world, enjoy the surprises in various places, and travel in the mountains.
Playing with water..."
Fuyao admitted that he had a purpose in approaching Chaoyang, but it was also true that he wanted to take her away.
Chaoyang looked at Fuyao for a while, then pushed him away with a smile.
She will not trust anyone, let alone entrust her life to anyone else.
"Young Master is joking. Now people from all over the world are gathering at Fengtian Border Pass. What they want is not me Chaoyang, but the things my mother took away back then. What they want is profit."
"Are you willing to just go and get married?" Fuyao frowned.
"Being born as an ant, you don't have any choice." Chaoyang said with a smile, turned and left.
