"Yuan Tiangang!"

Zhu Xiongying shouted.

"I am here!?"

"go with!"

"Bring Lee Bang-won to me, Your Highness!"

"Yes!"

After saying that, the figure disappeared in a flash.

Zhu Xiongying ordered a bloodbath in the entire palace, but the Goguryeo palace was not very big.

Soon everything in the palace was gathered in an open space.

Zhu Xiongying took a look and said: "Kill!"

At the command, the Ming army soldiers raised their swords and struck.

………………

"Your Highness, we have searched the entire palace and found no trace of Lee Bang-won."

Li Jinglong walked up to Zhu Xiongying and said respectfully.

"Did you run away?"

"They should still be in the city. I've asked the Bad Leader to look for him. You guys should go look for him too!"

"Yes!"

..............................

At the same time, in Kaijing City!
The Ming army was collecting fleeing Goguryeo soldiers on a large scale, and anyone who dared to resist would be killed without mercy.

But don't offend the slightest bit!
In a dark alley!
A head slowly popped out of a basket and looked around vigilantly.

Then several heads popped out from the baskets at the back.

"Your Majesty, the Ming army has just entered Kaesong. We should not stay here for long. Let's find a safe place!"

"Here, I don't know when the Ming army will come to our door."

Lee Bang-won glanced at him.

"The city is full of Ming troops now. As soon as we show up, we will be discovered immediately."

"They won't let us go. It's safe here for now. We'll find an opportunity at night."

"You can't run around now, understand?"

The confidant beside him curled his lips.

"Your Majesty, we should find some clothes first. The clothes we are wearing are too conspicuous."

This statement was agreed by others. Now they'd better change into ordinary people's clothes.

Even if they encounter the Ming army, they may be able to get away with it by wearing the clothes of ordinary people.

Otherwise it will be a dead end!
"Yeah! That makes sense!"

"Then go find a set of civilian clothes and change into them. Let's go!"

A few people walked out of the basket, sneaked to the entrance of the alley and looked around.

I found that there were Ming troops everywhere outside and I couldn't get out at all.

As soon as you go out you will be discovered.

They were so scared that they quickly shrank back!

"Your Majesty, I think we should wait until dark!"

Li Fangyuan nodded, turned around and was about to take the basket back, but when he turned around, he found several people standing behind him.

The leader was Yuan Tiangang, who was looking at them eagerly.

Li Fangyuan's heart skipped a beat when he saw them.

He wanted to turn around and run, but found that the alley entrance was blocked by someone. The clothes he was wearing were the same as Yuan Tiangang and the others.

"King of Goryeo, our Highness invites you!"

Hearing this, Li Fangyuan's face became solemn.

................................................

Inside the palace at this moment!

Zhu Xiongying sat on the throne with his eyes closed, resting. Below were Lan Yu and the others, as well as Li Fangguo and the others. At this time, Yuan Tiangang's figure appeared beside Zhu Xiongying like a ghost.

"Your Highness, Lee Bang-won has been captured!"

"Bring it in!"

"Yes!"

"Bring it in!"

As soon as Yuan Tiangang finished speaking, Li Fangyuan and others were brought in by the bad guys.

Li Fangyuan saw a complicated look in Li Fangguo's eyes in the crowd.

"Your Highness, King Lee Bang-won of Goryeo, pays respect to His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince of Ming."

Zhu Xiongying opened his eyes and looked at him.

"Lee Bang-won, do you admit your guilt?"

"I don't know, please let your highness tell me!"

"Be bold!"

"Lee Bang-won, you are unforgivable. Don't you know what you did?"

Lan Yu on the side kept scolding.

"The one who committed the heinous crime was Li Fangguo. He was the one who rebelled."

"What is my fault?"

Lee Bang-won looked so righteous that some people actually thought he was wronged.

"Lee Bang-won, who gave you the courage?"

"You killed your brother, forced your father to make you the crown prince, and then killed your father."

"Didn't you do this?"

Zhu Xiongying looked at him and spoke slowly.

"Your Highness, you are far away in the Ming Dynasty. You have no idea what is going on here. These are all accusations made by Li Fangguo."

"He is the one who wants to rebel and put the blame on me. I am the crown prince appointed by my father himself."

"How could I do something worse than an animal, such as killing my father and brother?"

"That was all planned by Li Fangguo. He was dissatisfied with my father appointing me as the crown prince, so he spread rumors."

Li Fangyuan, when he tells a lie, his face doesn't turn red, his heart doesn't beat, and he is as calm as water.

"You fart!"

"Your Highness, Lee Bang-won did all this."

"The previous prince was fine, but he suddenly died after entering the palace."

"How can this be?"

"And when my father announced that he would be the crown prince, he suddenly died."

"It was Lee Bang-won who did all this!"

"Your Highness, please seek justice for my father and brother."

Li Fangguo fell to his knees with a thud, tears streaming down his face, looking like a filial son.

"do not worry!"

"I will definitely do justice."

Having said that, he turned and looked at Lee Bang-won.

"Lee Bang-won, how do you explain it?"

"Your Highness, do you think it's possible?"

"If it was really me who did it, my father had just appointed me as his successor, and I killed someone. Isn't this telling everyone in the world that I did it?"

"I'm not that stupid!"

"The truth is, the previous prince entered the palace, but suddenly fell ill and died. My father summoned me to the palace and made me his heir."

"My father missed his previous son too much and passed away due to excessive grief."

"What nonsense!"

"Your Highness, it was clearly him who led his troops into the palace, held my father hostage, and summoned my brothers and me into the palace in my father's name."

"He killed the previous prince in front of my father, and threatened my father with the lives of all of us brothers."

"My father had no choice but to make him the crown prince, but he killed my father the next day."

"And they imprisoned all of our brothers."

"If your Highness doesn't believe me, you can call my brothers here. They can testify."

Hearing this, Chang Sheng stood up and said, "Your Highness, when we first entered the city, we went to see the mansions of those princes, and they had already been killed."

Oh!

Now there is no evidence!
Li Fangyuan looked at Li Fangguo proudly!
"Did one of our people kill him?"

"no!"

"Since it wasn't one of ours who killed him, then it was you who did it!"

Zhu Xiongying looked at Li Fangyuan and smiled faintly.

"Your Highness, it wasn't me! It must have been Li Fangguo who sent someone to kill him."

"Lee Bang-won, his men were accompanied by our Ming soldiers in their actions. If he was the one who did it."

"How could I not know?"

Hearing this, Lee Bang-won was stunned.

But he did not panic. He knew that he could not escape this disaster today, and he had already made preparations.

"Your Highness, you have so many people and so much power, nothing I say will be of any use."

"You mean I used my power to bully you and wronged you?"

Li Fangyuan smiled indifferently: "I dare not! Anyway, I will definitely die today."

"From the moment you sent troops to help Li Fangguo, I knew I would lose. I also knew that nothing I said would be of any use."

"Whether to kill or chop, isn't it just a matter of your words?"

"presumptuous!"

"When has Your Highness ever wronged anyone?"

Chang Mao, who was hot-tempered, couldn't help it and started to curse.

Zhu Yunhuan on the side slapped him in the face.

"What the hell do you mean?"

"Are you saying that my elder brother doesn't know right from wrong?"

After spending a long time with a group of rough guys, he has become a little different.

That slap made Lee Bang-won see stars and half of his face swelled up.

"May I ask who you are?"

After recovering from the shock, Lee Bang-won looked at Joo Yun-hyeon and asked.

"The legitimate son of the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, the younger brother of the Crown Prince's grandson, the King of Wu of the Ming Dynasty!"

"So it's His Royal Highness the King of Wu. Do you think I'm wrong?"

"Anyway, I'm now your prisoner, so don't you have the final say on what I say?"

"If you are not who I say you are, then why do you support him, Li Fangguo?"

"Instead of mediation?"

"Ok?"

"Sharp teeth and sharp mouths!"

As he said this, Zhu Yunhuan was about to take action again, but was stopped by Zhu Xiongying.

"Lee Bang-won, you really are such a good talker!"

"Don't you just want to see the evidence?"

"No problem! I'll give it to you!"

Said! Clapped his hands.

A person walked in, and when Li Fangyuan saw that person, his eyes suddenly became as big as bells.

"Do you know this person?"

"you……"

"You're not dead?"

Li Fangyuan looked at the person in front of him in astonishment. Not only Li Fangyuan, but Li Fangguo next to him also looked at the person in front of him in surprise.

The person in front of him was the eunuch who had served Lee Seong-gye before and witnessed the entire process of Lee Bang-won's coup with his own eyes.

"Jing'an Jun, how are you?"

"You...how did you do it?"

"Of course it's all thanks to your Highness."

As he said this, he looked at Zhu Xiongying, and the two brothers Li Bangyuan looked at Zhu Xiongying in astonishment.

It turns out that Zhu Xiongying knew all this a long time ago, no wonder he stationed troops on the border so early.

Just wait for Li Fangguo to speak!
Li Fangguo felt as if he had been cheated, and the look he gave Zhu Xiongying became somewhat complicated.

"Li Fangyuan, now you know why I, Daming, helped Li Fangguo, right?"

Hearing this, Lee Bang-won lowered his head and said nothing more.

Zhu Xiongying waved his hand and the eunuch retreated respectfully.

As soon as he walked out the door, he saw him tearing off a piece of human skin from his face, looking back inside, and then turned and left.

If Luo Fei and the others were here, they would definitely shout, "Fuck! Why is it you?"

at the same time!

Inside the palace!
"Lee Bang-won, do you admit your guilt?"

Li Fangyuan laughed at himself and said, "It's already been done. There's no regret medicine!"

"Kill or cut into pieces, it's up to you!"

"it is good!"

"He is a man. Take him away and execute him tomorrow!"

Li Fangyuan was carried away by two bad guys.

next day!

Li Fangyuan was dragged to the downtown area, where Li Fangguo read out his crimes. Finally, the executioner raised his sword and the head and body of a great hero in history were separated.

Zhu Xiongying then immediately spread the news that Li Fangyuan had been killed and announced his crimes.

Let those cities that have not been conquered yet come and surrender as soon as possible, otherwise once the Ming army arrives, everything will be destroyed.

................................................

In the palace!
"Uncle, continue to lead the troops south!"

"Meet up with Ma He as soon as possible and occupy all of Goguryeo."

Lan Yu nodded: "Your Highness, what should we do with Li Fangguo?"

"Kill or not?"

"he?"

"He is now thinking about how to get us out!"

Chang Mao at the side smiled and said, "Doesn't he know that it is easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away?"

Everyone also smiled.

"You want us to get out? That's impossible!"

"Your Majesty is determined to conquer Goguryeo. All the lands that the sun and moon shine on and the rivers and streams flow into will belong to the Han people."

"This is also the territory of our Ming Dynasty. You want us to leave? They are the ones who should leave. They are so bold as to establish a country on our land."

Zhu Xiongying said disdainfully!

"Brother, you are still smart!"

Zhu Yunxun on the side grinned.

"All right!"

"Lead the troops to continue southward and strive to occupy the entire territory of Goguryeo as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

…………

In the following days, Lan Yu led the army to continue southward, while Ma He fought northward.

When the cities along the way learned that the Ming army had arrived, they basically did not dare to resist, and the Ming army took the cities effortlessly.

The more successful the Ming army's progress was, the more uncomfortable Li Fangguo felt, because the Ming army showed no intention of leaving.

He went to see Zhu Xiongying several times and just when he wanted to talk about things, Zhu Xiongying deftly resolved the situation every time.

It leaves him speechless every time.

This made him very anxious!

I had a vague feeling that Zhu Xiongying was trying to swallow Goguryeo. If he really swallowed it, it would be impossible to make him spit it out.

I'm afraid it might be easier for you to date Chang'e.

"Everyone, what should we do now?"

Li Fangguo looked at the ministers in front of him with a frown.

"Prince, I'm afraid they don't want to retreat!"

Hearing this, Li Fangguo looked at Zhao Jun in astonishment.

"What should I do?"

"If they really want to annex it, it will be impossible to make them spit it out when the time comes."

Li Fangguo looked worried.

"Prince, just make it clear!"

"Otherwise, this is not a solution. The Ming Dynasty is the Celestial Empire and they care about their reputation."

"As long as we lower our stance, I think they will agree."

Li Fangguo nodded. This was the only way.

"I'll go find him right now!"

..................................................................

Zhu Xiongying's place!

"Your Highness, Li Fangguo requests to see you!"

"here we go again!"

"Invite him in!"

"Yes!"

Soon Li Fangguo walked in.

"Your Highness, Li Fangguo, pays respect to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"No courtesy, stay on your own!"

"Your Highness, I have a favor to ask of you."

Li Fangguo did not stand up, and Zhu Xiongying naturally knew what he wanted to say.

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"Your Highness, now that Lee Bang-won has been executed, leave the rest to me!"

"Your Highness has helped us a lot."

Zhu Xiongying waved his hand: "Hey! We in the Central Plains have a good saying, which is to send the Buddha to the west."

"At present, Lee Bang-won's forces have not yet been completely pacified, so we will naturally do our best."

“You can’t give up halfway!”

Hearing this, Li Fangguo already started to greet Zhu Xiongying in his heart.

"Your Highness, the rest are just a bunch of rabble, there is no need to worry about them at all."

"We can handle it ourselves, why would we trouble Your Highness?"

"Let me do it!"

"This way, Your Highness can respond to the emperor's orders as soon as possible."

After saying this, he looked at Zhu Xiongying meaningfully.
