Hearing what Xu Nantian said, Zhang Yifeng had already guessed the ending.
However, in order to confirm his suspicion, he still asked: "Father, did King Dali discover the affair between Luo Tianshu and Lu Xinyue? Then, kill Lu Xinyue or Luo Tianshu."
Hearing this, Xu Nantian looked a little complicated and said: "Your Majesty did find out about the love affair between Lu Xinyue and Luo Tianshu, but he did not kill Luo Tianshu. Even, in order to consolidate his dominance, he personally replaced Luo Tianshu and Luo Tianshu.
Lu Xinyue presided over the wedding."
After hearing Xu Nantian's words, Zhang Yifeng was slightly stunned. It seemed that he did not expect King Dali to be so generous, but it was somewhat different from what he had just thought.
However, he vaguely felt that Xu Nantian hadn't finished speaking yet.
Sure enough, Xu Nantian changed the topic and continued: "This was originally a happy event, but what we didn't expect was that on the second day after Luo Tianshu and Lu Xinyue got married, a piece of news spread throughout the kingdom.
"
"The Marquis of Qingyi, Luo Tianshu, intended to rebel, and when he went to court, the Marquis of Qingyi did not appear. This seems to further support the rumors that the Marquis of Qingyi intended to rebel."
Zhang Yifeng couldn't help but smile coldly when he heard this: "This must be a very clumsy frame-up, right?"
Xu Nantian shook his head and his expression suddenly became serious: "No, you are wrong. This is not a frame-up. The Qingyi Marquis did indeed conspire to rebel."
"Conspiracy?"
Hearing Xu Nantian's words, Zhang Yifeng frowned and asked, "Why did he want to rebel?"
A complicated look appeared on Xu Nantian's face, and he said: "Because on the night of their wedding, the bride Lu Wen Xinyue disappeared. Luo Tianshu thought that His Majesty sent someone to kidnap Lu Xinyue, so he went there late at night.
Please come to the palace to discuss this with His Majesty."
Having said this, Xu Nantian sighed and said, "Others may not know, but Brother Qiu, Wanyan Xiarong, and I all know that a big battle broke out in the palace that night."
"War?"
Zhang Yifeng frowned and said, "Did Marquis Qingyi start the fight?"
Xu Nantian nodded.
Seeing this, Zhang Yifeng continued to ask: "What was the result?"
Xu Nantian shook his head and said: "The princes did not participate in that battle. Only His Majesty and the king's personal guards participated. Other than the fact that there was a battle in the palace, others knew nothing about the rest."
"After that battle, the Marquis of Qingyi disappeared as if he had evaporated from the world. At that time, we all thought that Luo Tianshu had died. However, something happened three years later, and we found out that Luo Tianshu had not died.
die."
Zhang Yifeng was silent for a while and asked: "Three years after Qingyi Hou disappeared, he came back again?"
Xu Nantian nodded and said: "Not only did he come back, but he also brought back an army. At that time, outside Yong'an City on the border of the Chen Bing Kingdom, he threatened that your Majesty would come to see him, otherwise he would massacre the city."
Massacre the city!
Zhang Yifeng felt an inexplicable coldness in his heart. How much hatred must there be for a person to have such thoughts?
"King of Dali, did he lose to the Marquis of Qingyi?" Zhang Yifeng asked in a deep voice.
Xu Nantian nodded and said: "We only found out later that Lu Xinyue died on the night she married Qingyi Hou, and the person who killed her was Yu Wenxin."
Yu Wenxin?
Perhaps seeing the confusion in Zhang Yifeng's eyes, Xu Nantian explained: "Yu Wenxin is the commander of the king's personal guard. At the same time, he is also the person with the strongest cultivation level in the Dali Kingdom except for the Marquis of Qingyi."
Hearing Xu Nantian's words, Zhang Yifeng couldn't help but feel doubtful.
"King Dali doesn't like Lu Xinyue, why would he let his men kill her?"
Xu Nantian gave a bitter smile and sighed: "This is where His Majesty is more paranoid. He is a very possessive person. He will not let others get what he cannot get, but for Lu Xin
Yue, he has no intention of killing the other party."
"It's just that when the king's personal guards besieged Qingyi Hou, Lu Xinyue was also present. In order to prevent Qingyi Hou from being caught, she created an opportunity for Qingyi Hou to escape at the cost of her own life."
Zhang Yifeng showed such an expression. In this way, King Dali still made up his mind to kill Luo Tianshu, but accidentally killed Lu Xinyue.
The beloved woman died to save him. You can imagine how angry and desperate Qingyi Hou felt at that time.
"King Dali, have you gone to see the Marquis of Qingyi?"
Xu Nantian shook his head, his eyes became complicated, and said: "The Marquis of Qingyi is the most powerful among our nine princes, but three years have made his strength even more terrifying.
In addition, the king is already ashamed of Qingyi Hou, so he does not dare to see him at all."
Zhang Yifeng frowned and said, "Since the king didn't go, did the Marquis of Qingyi really massacre the city?"
Xu Nantian shook his head and said: "How could the Marquis of Qingyi take the lives of the people of this city? The reason why he said that was just to force His Majesty to show up, but he still underestimated His Majesty's intentions."
"Although His Majesty did not go, he sent several princes to lead their troops to attack Qingyi Hou."
"The allied forces of the princes and the Qingyi Marquis fought fiercely outside Yong'an City. The battle was extremely brutal. Both the kingdom and the Qingyi Marquis suffered numerous casualties."
Hearing Xu Nantian's words, Zhang Yifeng was silent for a moment and asked: "What's the ending? Is Qing Yihou defeated?"
Xu Nantian nodded, took a deep breath, and said: "Yes, the people brought by Qingyi Marquis were not many to begin with. Under the siege of several princes, almost all the people he brought died in battle.
He is the only one left alive."
Zhang Yifeng was a little shocked. Although he did not witness the battle with his own eyes, from Xu Nantian's words, he could imagine how tragic the battle was.
"Father, you should be one of the princes who besieged Qingyi Marquis, right?" Zhang Yifeng suddenly asked.
Hearing Zhang Yifeng's words, Xu Nantian nodded slowly and said, "Yes, your Majesty sent a total of six princes to Yong'an City to fight the Qingyi Hou, including me and Wanyan Xia Rong."
Six princes?
Zhang Yifeng was slightly shocked and said, "You caught Qingyi Hou?"
From his point of view, if six princes are sent out, no matter how powerful the Qingyi Hou is, he can only capture them without any help.
However, Xu Nantian shook his head, and a look of regret suddenly appeared in his eyes: "The Qingyi Hou is too powerful. Although he was defeated at the time and was seriously injured, he still killed him forcefully.
I found a bloody path and escaped."
Zhang Yifeng noticed that when Xu Nantian said this, his expression was slightly unnatural.
"Father, if my guess is correct, does the ability of Marquis Qingyi to escape have something to do with you?"
