Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 812 Brothers Reunite (First Update)
The Nanhu people no longer wanted to fight, nor could they afford to.

The Battle of Ping Shui Bay resulted in heavy losses for them, which has already aroused resentment among the court officials.

Tuoba Shan was not originally a warlike person, but he acted on impulse and was bewitched by Shui Xingqiu's promises, which made him blinded by greed and choose to send troops.

If they launch a surprise attack, they still have a 30% chance of winning.

However, if the fighting continues for a long time, in a direct confrontation, they simply cannot last long.

Therefore, when Ye Yunfeng broke through the border of the Southern Hu, Tuoba Shan immediately adopted the suggestion of his court officials—to send Shui Xingqiu out in exchange for a truce!

Ye Yunfeng narrowly escaped death, all thanks to Shui Xingqiu.

If it weren't for his terrible idea of ​​trying to kill Ye Yunfeng, none of these things would have happened!
Fortunately, Ye Yunfeng agreed.

In fact, Ye Yunfeng did not really intend to invade the heart of the Southern Hu territory to behead Tuoba Shan.

Because once a full-scale war breaks out, the losses to military and financial resources will be extremely staggering.

What else can be done but cause more innocent civilians to die in the war?
Ye Yunfeng's real purpose in doing this was to intimidate!
As for Shui Xingqiu, he was an unexpected bonus.

He never expected that the Nanhu group, who used to fawn over Shui Xingqiu, would betray him so easily.

A life for a city—anyone knows which to choose.

So, there is this scene now.

"General Ye, we have brought the person to you. Would you like to verify his identity?"

Ye Yunfeng immediately stopped him, "Oh, then there's no need."

He's seen Shui Xingqiu before; he can tell the real from the fake at a glance.

Moreover... Shui Xingqiu was covered in dirt at the moment. If his identity were to be verified in public, not only would Shui Xingqiu be unable to bear it, but he and his soldiers would also find it difficult to stay composed.

As for Shui Xingqiu himself, nobody cared.

"From this day forward, the fate of Shui Xingqiu shall be decided by General Ye. Whether he is killed or tortured is entirely up to you. I hope that General Ye will keep his promise and withdraw his troops to cease hostilities."

Upon hearing this, Shui Xingqiu suddenly began to struggle violently!
He absolutely cannot fall into Ye Yunfeng's hands!
Ye Yunfeng hates him to the extreme and will make him suffer endless torment, wishing he were dead!
Snapped!
The person next to him slapped him hard across the face, yelling, "Behave yourself!"

Shui Xingqiu was beaten until he saw stars and finally lost his last bit of strength.

Before this, how could he have imagined that he would one day fall to such a state!?

"Look at that, that was way too heavy-handed." Ye Yunfeng clicked his tongue lightly.
"How am I going to explain this to people when I get back?"

Shui Xingqiu's mind was in a daze, and it took him a while to process what he had just heard.

Explain?

Who does Ye Yunfeng have to explain himself to?

But he couldn't figure it out, his eyes rolled back, and he finally fainted.

Ye Yunfeng raised his hand, and soldiers immediately stepped forward.

"take away."

……

Shui Xingqiu seemed to be trapped in a long nightmare.

Countless bloody images and shrill sounds flashed wildly through his mind.

"no no!"

He suddenly woke up, drenched in sweat!

However, the scene before them changed again.

He was locked up again.

But clearly, this wasn't the cell where he'd been held in Nanhu before, but rather...

Suddenly, he remembered the last scene before he lost consciousness, and his heart sank!
Ye Yunfeng!
"Who are you looking for?"

A calm and gentle voice came from behind.

Shui Xingqiu was startled and turned around abruptly!

"who!?"

Xun Cheng sat opposite him, a cup of tea beside him, and it was unclear how long he had been there.

He smiled.

"What, after all these years, you don't even recognize your own brother?"
