"Fourth brother, why don't you attack the city directly?" Shenyue Haoxuan opened the curtain and hurriedly asked questions after coming in.

"I think I've already said it during the day." Shenyue Haoqing wiped the sword in his hand and didn't look at him.

"I know, it's just that we now have every time to prepare for the siege."

"Why is the second emperor brother in such a hurry to attack the city?" Shenyue Haoqing stopped what he was doing, and a pair of cold eyes under the purple mask stared straight at him.

"Isn't that because I'm in a hurry to make meritorious contributions?" Shenyue Haoxuan regained his smile again, "And we also made two preparations at the beginning, now that Vaxi Country has such an attitude, it is only a matter of time before the city is attacked, it is better to take it in one fell swoop while it is unprepared!" ”

"Second Emperor Brother, everything should be decided after contacting Vassi, depending on the situation."

"Fourth brother......" Shenyue Haoxuan still wanted to say more.

"Second prince, this is an order, you should step back first." Shenyue Haoqing's tone became even colder, and he no longer bothered to give orders to him.

Shenyue Haoxuan wanted to speak and stopped, endured it for a while, then clenched his fists and said, "Yes!" Then he went out of the bill angrily.

Yesterday, four spies were sent to the southeast, northwest, and northwest directions to find out the news, and the scouts sent out early this morning came back to report that the people outside the city of Vasi had already returned to the city or left, and only traces of a hasty departure were left in the house. Then the last spy reported that there seemed to be a few more families twenty miles west of the tent.

"Fourth brother, let me lead the troops to check!" When Shenyue Haoxuan heard this, he volunteered to stand up.

"The second prince can't, the second prince hasn't been to the battlefield in person, and he's not familiar with the situation in Vassi, so it's better not to take the troops out alone." Cheng Siyue stopped when he heard it.

"Bold, are you looking down on this prince?" Shenyue Haoqing was furious, and a sharp sword was laid in front of Cheng Siyue.

"Second Emperor Brother, Vice General Cheng is reasonable, the Imperial Brother is not very clear about the nearby terrain, it is better for this king to take a look, and the Second Emperor Brother should wait for news in the camp first." Seeing this, Shenyue Haoqing stopped his sword.

"Fourth brother, this should be more important for brother Wei to increase experience, since you don't let me attack the city, it's okay for me to explore the way, right?" Shenyue Haoxuan still insisted on exploring.

"The road ahead is unknown, the second emperor brother is better not to take risks, so as not to have an accident, and it is difficult for the emperor to explain to his father. Let's ask the second emperor brother to preside over the overall situation in the camp, and this king will return to the camp once he finds out clearly. ”

"Since the fourth brother said so, I'll listen to you." Shenyue Haoxuan agreed with a disappointed look on his face.

Then Shenyue Haoqing first sent two people to the front to explore the way, and after about two quarters of an hour, the two of them came back safely, and reported that there was nothing abnormal ahead, so he ordered the rest of the people to guard the camp, and he set off with more than ten soldiers.

Almost a quarter of an hour later they arrived at the place where the scouts had returned, it was a small mountain village at the foot of Lushan, and the size of it seemed that there were only twenty or thirty households, but now they all seemed to be almost gone, many of the doors of the houses were already open, most of the things in the houses had been hastily taken away, and those who were not taken had fallen to the ground in a messy manner, and they could see the haste of leaving. It's almost noon now, and I can only see smoke rising from a few houses.

When they arrived on horseback, whenever they passed a house where there were people, the people who had been outside the house immediately hid back in the house, locked the door, and no matter how much the soldiers knocked and shouted, no one would open the door or make a sound, but they could not force their way in, so they could only knock on the door from house to house.

"Lord Wang?" Just as a group of people were frowning, a trembling white-haired old couple walked over, but they were stopped by soldiers.

When Shenyue Haoqing heard this, he jumped off his horse and looked at them vigilantly, but he still ordered the soldiers, "Don't be rude." Old man, do you know this king? ”

"Yes, I know, you are the life-saving benefactor of the old man's family, you also wore such a mask five years ago, although you were still a child at that time, but you were the benefactor of the Vasi country." When the two saw Shenyue Haoqing talking, they trembled and knelt down and kowtowed to thank them.

"You don't have to be so polite." Shenyue Haoqing stretched out his hand to hold the two up, he had no impression of whether he had saved the two five years ago, and it was impossible for him to believe what they said without doubt about the two people in front of him. Therefore, when he used his hands to help them up, he secretly used internal force in his hands to guard against the sneak attack of the two, and only let down his guard after finding that the two of them did not have any internal force in their bodies, and they should not be people who know martial arts.

"Come out, everybody! The prince is a good person and will not hurt us! The old man was helped up and motioned to those who were hiding behind the bed and peeking. Sure enough, the people who were originally closed all opened the door and came out, and these were some old people.

"Lord Wang, you want to save us!" After hearing what the old couple had said, everyone knelt down in unison.

"Hurry up, everyone, this king will do his best."

"Old man, I see that many people in this village seem to have left, why are you all still here?" Shenyue Haoqing was invited by the old couple to sit down in the house, while the remaining soldiers were left outside by the villagers and brought them drinks to drink.

"The prince doesn't know, all of us are making a living in the city because of the children, and now that the second prince has sealed the city, the children can't come out, and we can't leave them behind, so we can only stay here. Eh, in this war, it will always be us ordinary people who suffer. The emperor of Tianyang Kingdom is so good to our Vaxi Kingdom, and I don't know why the second prince still does this. The old man replied as he poured him a bowl of water, and the old woman nodded and went out.

"Old man, my Tianyang Kingdom doesn't want to poison living beings, it would be best if this incident could be resolved peacefully, so I hope the old man can tell us everything he knows."

"Of course, of course, you can ask, Lord Wang."

"Old man, can you tell me when these two princes started to act?"

"About a month ago, I heard that the kingdom was recruiting soldiers, my two sons went to join the army, I knew that I was going to do such a thing, the old man should have stopped him even if he died at that time, he shouldn't have been allowed to take revenge like this, and do these unconscionable things!" The old man choked up as he spoke, and wiped his tearful face with his tattered sleeves.

"Does your King Vasilata know about this?"

"The old man doesn't know very well, he only knows that our king was bedridden a month and a half ago, and the people are rumored to be that the second prince killed the king, but there is no evidence, and I don't know if it's true, but I pity our king, our king is a good person, he has always been very good to the people, and he is also very grateful to the emperor of Tianyang Kingdom, if our king is here, he will never allow such a thing to happen." The old man shook his head and sighed.

"Do you remember if anyone from Vassi has been here during this time?"

"This old man is not clear, the prince has worked hard all the way, you better drink some water first, I hope you can solve the rebellion as soon as possible, and let my sons come back quickly."

Shenyue Haoqing nodded for comfort, then took the bowl handed by the old man and took a sip of water.

"Also, do you know what happened to King Vasilata's queen and children after his death?" Kamitsuki Haoqing remembered the Shadow's report last night.

"Even if the old man knows, he can't tell you, the prince." The old man laughed inexplicably.

Shenyue Haoqing looked at him suspiciously, but he felt that his eyes were blurry, and he realized that he was careless, he shook his head to make himself sober, "Who are you?" ”

"Who we are, the prince will know when he walks with us." The old man smirked, no longer hiding the hostility in his eyes.

"Since you have a conspiracy, wouldn't it be faster to use poison if you do?" Shenyue Haoqing knew that he had been drugged in the water.

"Heh, you're worth more alive than dead!" At this time, the villagers who were originally outside also walked in at this time, but they all lost the original disguise of the old dragon bell. Except for the old couple, the rest of the people were disguised as old men.

"Are you from the Qi Kingdom?" As soon as Shenyue Haoqing saw them, he immediately understood the origin of these people, the average height of the people of the Qi country was shorter than that of the other four countries, but because of their short bodies, the martial arts of the Qi country were also known for their strange things, and because of their short stature, even if they pretended to be old people, they were not easy to detect. Shenyue Haoqing asked while swinging his sword at the few people around him, everyone hurriedly swung their swords to block, Shenyue Haoqing was drugged, the sword had lost much strength, and was accidentally stabbed by one of the swords.

"Ding!" At the critical moment, the sword was opened, "Bastard!" The prince said that he would catch it alive! ”

"Huh, catch it alive? It depends on whether you have the ability to do so! Shenyue Haoqing smiled coldly when he heard this, "Shadow! Ink Ray! ”

As soon as the words fell, Shadow and Mo Xiao fell into the room, "It's too late! Shenyue Haoqing only heard the sound of swords colliding and fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already dusk, and the wounds on Shenyue Haoqing's body had been bandaged, "Master, subordinates should be damned!" When the Shadow saw him wake up, he immediately knelt down.

"It's okay, it's none of your business." Shenyue Haoqing waved his hand with some difficulty, and when he established Chi Feng and Bai Wei, he gave an order that he must not summon Chi Feng and Bai Wei by himself, even if his own life was threatened, so as not to be exposed in front of others.

"How's the rest going?" Shenyue Haoqing thought of the other soldiers who were originally outside, but he also guessed it in his heart.

"All of them have been killed. The corpse of Mo Xiao had already sent the horses back to the camp.

"Did the people of Qi leave any people alive?"

"Originally, there were still alive mouths, but all of them committed suicide by taking poison, and it seems that they had been prepared for a long time."

"It seems that this rebellion in the Vasi Kingdom is indeed related to the Qi Kingdom." Shenyue Haoqing stood up, "Prepare the horse and return to the camp!" ”
