Thief Emperor

Chapter 695 Repayment
Li Yun looked at these Hu Ji, then looked at Zheng Can who was being forced to kneel in front of him, and smiled: "Marshal Zheng Jie is really a romantic man, he actually has so many Hu Ji hidden in his mansion."

Zheng Can took a deep breath, looked up at Li Yun, and said, "Prince Li, we are officials in the same court after all. Now that I have surrendered, please give me some respect."

As he said this, he looked down at the rope around him, his tone somewhat dejected: "This rope is too tight."

Being a child of aristocratic family, Zheng Jieshuai had been pampered since childhood. Although he was now a prisoner, he still couldn't accept that he was tied up, and his skin was tender, and now it was almost broken by the rope.

Li Yun did not respond to his words, but looked at him quietly and said, "These Hu Ji were given to Zheng Jieshuai by Wei Quanzhong and his son, right?"

Shuofang is located in the northwest, not far from the Western Regions, and the Shuofang army has been entrenched in the northwest for many years. It is not surprising that it has some communication with the Western Regions. Moreover, Li Yun already knows that Wei Yao has just been here, so it is not difficult to associate this...

Zheng Can bowed his head and smiled bitterly, "Prince Li, I have just said that all these Hu concubines are presented to you, Prince."

"Confused."

Li Yun looked at him, shook his head slightly and said, "If you don't send it to me, it won't be mine anymore, right?"

Hearing this, Zheng Can looked downcast. He looked up at Li Yun, stammering and unable to speak.

Li Yun narrowed his eyes and chuckled softly, "I have conquered Ruyang. According to the rules, everything in Ruyang belongs to me. If Marshal Zheng Jie wants to negotiate terms with me, then I must have some new uses for me."

At this point, Li Yun turned his head to look at Su Zhan, only to see that this boy's eyes were already fixed on these Hu Ji, and he could hardly move away. Li Yun glanced at him and laughed dumbly: "I'll give you two tonight?"

Su Zhan was only seventeen or eighteen years old at the moment. He was thinking about these things. Seeing these women, he naturally had some wild thoughts. After hearing Li Yun's words, he suddenly came to his senses and lowered his head in fear: "Go up, I...I..."

Li Yun glanced at him and said with a smile: "Take away all the irrelevant people here. I want to talk to Zheng Jieshuai."

Su Zhan responded and looked at the dozen or so Hu Ji. Just as he was about to speak, one of the tall, fair-skinned and beautiful Hu Ji stood up and looked up at Li Yun with a seductive look: "My king, I..."

"I am willing to serve the king..."

It was the turn of spring and summer, and Hu Ji didn't have many clothes on, some of which were translucent gauze. When she stood up, her figure was clearly revealed. After looking at Li Yun, she knelt on the ground softly and said softly, "Please allow me, Your Majesty..."

Li Yun looked at her for a few seconds.

This Hu girl was quite beautiful, slightly taller than the Han women. Moreover, her high nose bridge might not be accepted by Han men of that era. However, she looked like the white people Li Yun had seen in another world. Li Yun had seen them so many times that he was used to it.

"You speak Chinese quite well. Who did you learn from?"

The woman lowered her head and said softly, "I was sold to Lingzhou when I was eight or nine years old, and grew up in Lingzhou."

"Later, I was bought by General Wei and ended up here..."

After saying that, she stood up again, bit her lips lightly, walked towards Li Yun with graceful steps, moving her waist and hips slightly, with great grace.

At first glance, it was obvious that she had been specially trained. A decent girl would never walk in such a pace.

Mr. Li put his hands in his sleeves and quietly looked at the woman who was walking towards him. The woman looked at Li Yun with a somewhat flustered look. She gritted her teeth and took a few steps forward.

He was within five steps of Li Yun. Perhaps because he was frightened by Li Yun's aura or because he had run out of strength, he fell directly to the ground and didn't move anymore.

Li Yun stood up, walked in front of her, squatted down and looked at her carefully, then put his hand on her neck and grabbed her collar.

Su Zhan's face turned red, and he was about to leave with his people. Before he could say anything, he saw Li Yun gently pull, and Hu Ji's gauze dress was torn into pieces by him. Then Li Yun pinched her arm with one hand and lifted her right arm out of his arms.

This Hu Ji was holding a dagger in her right hand. The dagger was not long, but it glowed coldly.

Su Zhan's face suddenly changed, and he strode forward. Before he got close, Li Yun waved his hand to stop him. Today, he took the dagger from her hand and looked at it carefully.

The Hu girl curled up on the ground, shivering.

Su Zhan and the others knelt on the ground. Su Zhan bowed his head and kowtowed, saying, "Sir, when you capture these Hu Ji, you should have searched their bodies, but there are no women in the army. Some people say that these Hu Ji are all from the upper class..."

Su Zhan took a deep breath and kowtowed, "Therefore, therefore, there was no body search."

"I have failed in my duty. Please punish me!"

Li Yun waved at Su Zhan and said with a smile, "It's okay."

He looked at the Hu Ji, then at Zheng Can, with a playful smile: "Zheng Jieshuai, the Hu Ji I gave you stabbed me instead of you. Do you know what this means?"

Zheng Can was tied up tightly, but his face looked a little bad. He looked up at Li Yun, and then his voice was a little hoarse: "If... if it was arranged in advance, it means that the father and son of the Wei family never thought of coming to save me. They were sure that Yuzhou would fall and I would fall into the hands of Prince Li."

"It is certain that these Hu concubines will eventually fall into the hands of the prince."

Li Yun threw the dagger aside. As the dagger fell to the ground with a clang, Li smiled playfully: "Marshal Zheng Jie is not stupid. Why would he be willing to be manipulated by the father and son of the Wei family? Is it because of these Hu concubines?"

Zheng Can took a deep breath, lowered his head and said nothing. Seeing him like this, Li Yun touched his chin, thinking.

Su Zhan knelt behind him and bowed his head and said, "Master, how do we deal with these Hu Ji?"

Li Yun looked back at him, then said calmly, "Take them away. This female assassin will be sentenced to death. The rest will be kept under guard for the time being, and the people from the Nine Departments will question them."

Upon hearing this, the woman curled up on the ground immediately got up, knelt on the ground, and cried, "My lord, my family is in the hands of the young general. I...I have no choice."

She cried, "I didn't do anything to the king. I didn't do anything to the king."

Li Yun touched his chin and thought for a while.

This Hu Ji has a poor psychological quality. She was frightened by his look just now and dared not move. Theoretically speaking, she did not do anything.

However, these Hu Ji had been trained and were not clean. As the master, no matter how horny Li Yun was, he would not touch them. Thinking of this, he looked at Su Zhan and said with a smile: "Boy, are you afraid of assassins?"

Su Zhan shook his head: "I'm not afraid."

"Then I'll leave her to you. It's up to you whether you want to kill her or keep her by your side as a concubine."

Li Yun smiled playfully: "But don't go too far and don't delay official business."

Su Zhan knelt on the ground, bowed his head and said: "I obey your command!"

As the backbone of Jiangdong, Li Yun must be careful with every move he makes and must not put himself in danger, and...

He has no shortage of women.

He has been assassinated too many times over the years, but Li Yun will always be wary of anyone who takes the initiative to get close to him.

In principle, Li Yun will not sleep if the other party takes the initiative. After all, no matter how strong a person's personal fighting ability is, he is still vulnerable on the bed.

Soon, Su Zhan took all the Hu girls away. Li Yun walked behind Zheng Can, looked at the hemp ropes tied on him, grabbed one side with each hand, and pulled hard. The hemp ropes broke immediately.

Zheng Can was startled. It took him a while to come back to his senses and look at Li Yun. He lowered his head and smiled bitterly, "Thank you, Prince Li."

Li Yun sat back in his seat and asked, "Do you recognize Zheng Hao?"

Zheng Can's expression changed slightly, he lowered his head and sighed: "He is a brother from the same clan."

Li Yun smiled and said, "Would you like to kiss me?"

Zheng Can hesitated for a moment and continued, "He and I have the same great-grandfather."

"Oh."

Li Yun smiled and said, "That's pretty close."

"I asked him to write you a letter and asked Jiusi to deliver it to you. Did you receive it?"

Zheng Can lowered his head and smiled bitterly, "Prince Li, the Zheng family in Xingyang kept in touch with each other. I know that a large part of the family went to Jinling, and I also know the letter sent by Zheng Hao, but because of this."

He looked at Li Yun and continued, "That is why I cannot have any contact with the prince."

Li Yun nodded gently: "I understand."

"You, the Zheng family, also want to split the bets."

Li returned to his seat and said calmly, "One side is with me, the other side is with Wei Quanzhong. Zheng Jieshuai, you are the one who is with Wei Quanzhong."

Zheng Can lowered his head and said nothing.

Li Yun said expressionlessly, "My Jiangdong Army has been fighting with the Zhongwu Army for more than a month. Not to mention the previous casualties, in the battle of Ruyang City alone, our army suffered 2,000 casualties. Marshal Zheng Jie, how do you settle this account?"

Zheng Can sighed, looked up at Li Yun, and said, "How does Prince Li want to settle this?"

"You must repay Li."

Li Yun narrowed his eyes and said, "I have sent people to block the area forty miles around Ruyang, so no news can get out."

He looked at Zheng Can and whispered, "Let's work together to appease the Shuofang Army."
