Although Luo Tianshu had agreed to his request, Zhang Yifeng felt that he still needed to explain the stakes to Luo Tianshu.
Luo Tianshu nodded and said: "Of course I know. Although this is your request, it is not what I want to do. Duguyan is my enemy, and his son is naturally the same."
Zhang Yifeng smiled and said: "It's just that if you do this, you may be delayed in going to the royal city to seek revenge from Dugu Yan."
Hearing Zhang Yifeng's words, Luo Tianshu shook his head and saw that he was silent for a long time before he said: "Actually, although I came to Dali Kingdom this time to seek revenge on Duguyan, I will not kill him, so
, the impact is not very big.”
Hearing this, Zhang Yifeng was a little surprised. He frowned and asked, "Aren't you here to kill him? He killed your wife, and you didn't kill him?"
Luo Tianshu sighed and said with a sigh on his face: "Actually, although Xinyue's death is related to Duguyan, she was not killed by Duguyan."
Zhang Yifeng suddenly became interested and asked: "Then how did she die?"
Luo Tianshu glanced at Lu Xinyue's tomb and said: "Back then, in order to make Xinyue give up on me, Duguyan lied to her that I was a traitor to the kingdom, and sent people to secretly attack and kill me. I had to resist, so
This further solidifies Duguyan’s frame-up against me.”
"Later, I escaped by chance. Xinyue did not believe that I was a traitor, so she asked Duguyan to withdraw the wanted order against me, and promised that as long as Duguyan withdraws the wanted order against me, she would be willing to marry him."
Hearing this, Zhang Yifeng couldn't help but ask: "Is she really going to marry Dugu Yan?"
Luo Tianshu nodded, with a look of sadness in his eyes, and said: "She did this all for me. It was me who harmed her. If it hadn't been for me, she might not have died."
"Her death has something to do with you?"
Luo Tianshu nodded and said: "Yes, after I escaped, I was filled with grief and anger, so I thought about sneaking back to the Royal City secretly and waiting for an opportunity to rescue Xinyue, but I never expected that as soon as I arrived at the Royal City,
Discovered by Duguyan’s people.”
Zhang Yifeng frowned and said: "With your cultivation level, I'm afraid even if they find out, they won't be able to catch you, right?"
Luo Tianshu nodded, with a look of pride in his eyes, and said: "That's right, although Duguyan's minions discovered me, they all were killed by me."
Listening to the murderous spirit in Luo Tianshu's words, Zhang Yifeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. There is a reason why Luo Tianshu became the leader of the princes.
At this time, Luo Tianshu sighed and said: "Although I killed them, Duguyan still knew the news that I came to the royal city. At that time, he sent almost all the masters in the royal city to capture and kill me."
Having said this, Luo Tianshu paused, suddenly looked at Zhang Yifeng, with a complicated look in his eyes, and said: "Among these people is your adoptive father Xu Nantian."
"I didn't expect that you are Xu Nantian's adopted son."
Zhang Yifeng naturally knew why Luo Tianshu said this. Twenty years ago, when his adoptive father was chasing Luo Tianshu, he spared Luo Tianshu once. Luo Tianshu always remembered it, and it was understandable.
"I'm afraid, even if the eight princes joined forces, they couldn't catch you, right?" Zhang Yifeng asked.
Luo Tianshu nodded, took a long breath, and said, "You must be curious about how I escaped from the royal city when the eight princes were chasing me, right?"
Zhang Yifeng nodded.
In fact, he did feel a little curious in his heart, because although Luo Tianshu was very powerful and was known as the head of the nine princes, he could become a prince of the Dali Kingdom, and the other princes were not idiots.
Maybe they are no match for Luo Tianshu if they fight alone, but if they swarm them, even Luo Tianshu will probably be able to hate him on the spot.
Hearing Zhang Yifeng's words, Luo Tianshu sighed and said, "I was able to escape from the capital city all because of the new moon."
"Did she help you escape?"
Luo Tianshu nodded and said: "Although Duguyan is despicable, he really likes Xinyue. During the days when Xinyue was in the royal city, Duguyan had no restrictions other than not letting Xinyue leave the royal city.
Crescent freedom.”
"It is precisely for this reason that Xinyue has the opportunity to help me."
Zhang Yifeng nodded and said, "What happened after that? You didn't leave together?"
"No, I escaped from the royal city with Xinyue at that time, but it didn't take long for Duguyan to know about it. He became so angry that he sent an army to hunt us down. They chased us all the way.
Arrive at Yong'an City."
Speaking of this, a complicated look appeared in Luo Tianshu's eyes.
"It was in Yong'an City that your adoptive father Xu Nantian let me go, so I was able to completely escape from the Dali Kingdom. Otherwise, I would have died that time."
Zhang Yifeng nodded. What Luo Tianshu told him was basically the same as what Qiu Lin and Xu Nantian told him, but he was still a little curious. Since Luo Tianshu said that Lu Xinyue was not killed by Duguyan, then she
How did he die?
"How did your wife die?"
After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Yifeng finally asked the doubts in his heart. Luo Tianshu was silent for a long time, and then he said: "She committed suicide."
suicide?
Zhang Yifeng was a little surprised. He did not expect Luo Tianshu to answer this.
He did not continue to ask about what happened next, because Luo Tianshu's mood dropped a little at this time. His question just now obviously reminded Luo Tianshu of sad past events.
Later, Zhang Yifeng declined the invitation of the old man in Mai. After saying goodbye to Luo Tianshu, he and Hong Ling returned to the city lord's palace.
After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Yifeng learned that the Twenty-Two Prince and Yu Wenxin only stayed in the City Lord's Mansion for a while and then left.
Zhang Yifeng sneered secretly. He knew that Yu Wenxin must have sensed the danger, so he left with the Twenty-Two Princes.
"I didn't expect that Yu Wenxin would be so alert. I'm afraid it's impossible to rely on Luo Tianshu, and I have to settle the matter myself."
A cold look appeared in Zhang Yifeng's eyes, and then he looked at Sima Ji and said: "From now on, you are the Lord of Yong'an City. You are a smart man and you should know what to do."
Hearing that Zhang Yifeng directly appointed him as the city lord, Sima Ji was ecstatic but also shocked.
In the Kingdom of Dali, only the king has the power to appoint officials, especially for important positions such as city lord. As for other people, they do not have this qualification.
He did not expect that Zhang Yifeng would be so bold.
"Sir, special envoy, without the order of His Majesty the King, I dare not take over the position of city lord."
