Joy of Life: I'm really not a saint

Li Chengqian was also worried about this matter.

Despite a city-wide search, they were unable to detain Fan Xian.

They had received news before that the reinforcements Fan Xian requested would arrive at the city tomorrow. This was the reason why the Second Prince did not wait for the result in the city and launched the war brazenly.

If the news is wrong and the troops from Dongyi City arrive earlier, then...

"We still have too few troops!" Qin Ye has been leading troops for many years and is well prepared for everything, so he will not suffer a major defeat.

Hearing this, Li Chengqian made a decision: "Come here, pass the order!"

"Order the Prince to lead the Imperial Guards. Today I will annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop!"

At this time, the morning sun has slowly risen, and the red light shines on the entire city. The heart-pounding red is the main color of the sky, as beautiful and dangerous as blood. And what about the ground? What is flowing at this time is real blood. At this moment, the sky and the earth are filled with red.

“We need to delay time, but not too long. If the intelligence is correct, when the battle reaches dusk, we can open a few city gates to let the enemy enter the city, and then launch an attack!” Qin Ye spoke out the plan he had been brewing in his mind for a long time. He must take advantage of the arrival of people from Dongyi City to destroy Ye Zhong’s troops, so that he can gather the remnants and confront the Dongyi City troops.

By then, the civil strife will be over, Emperor Li Chengqian's throne will be secure, and the entire Qing Kingdom will become united again. I think the troops from all over the state will rush to Beijing to defend the king!

And these Dongyi people are alone in the deep, and no one can get out!

And he, Qin Ye, can also take advantage of the situation to attack Dongyi City and become a general who expands the territory!

Si Gu Jian is undoubtedly a great master, but what can he do when facing an army of hundreds of thousands of people from an entire country?

"It's a long way from the palace to the city wall. Before that, please let General Qin kill the rebels' spirit and wait for the arrival of the imperial guards to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop!" Li Chengqian was in high spirits at this time. He could not see that his brother had any divine calculations. "General, do you know what the other side will do if they want to win?"

The second prince is ambitious for the throne, but he is not an idiot and would rather compete with Li Chengqian in energy consumption.

Now that the war has begun, everyone is thinking about winning, but how can he win?

"If Your Majesty is in the palace at this time, the rebels will certainly use the people in the Thirteen City Gates Office who they 'bribed' to open the city gates." Qin Ye thought for a moment and pointed out the route, "Go straight to the palace. The nearest one is Zhengyang Gate. Zhang Deqing is a rebel, so he will naturally open Zhengyang Gate. It is the safest and smoothest way for the rebels to enter the city!"

Li Chengqian smiled slightly: "Then the general will come up with another trick."

Qin Ye stroked his beard, his complacency evident on his face.

"What about now?" What Li Chengqian meant was that he was on the city wall at this moment, so how could the rebels win, that is, capture and kill him?

“Same reason!”

Qin Ye frowned and said, it is obvious that His Majesty's appearance on the wall now is not a pre-arranged plan, it is an accident.

What Qin Ye least wanted was an accident.

"It's also about luring the enemy deep into our territory, and then dividing and destroying them, but..."

Li Chengqian glanced at him, a strange look flashing in his eyes, "But how?"

"This move may make the bait go away without return!"

Chapter 357 Are you worthy?

Hearing this, Li Chengqian frowned and said in a deep voice: "As a soldier of the Qing Kingdom, it is natural for you to sacrifice your own life."

How could he not know that this troop used as bait would be torn to pieces by the army rushing into the city, and most of them would not be able to survive until the rebels were lured into the ambush!

Little did he know that he, the king of a country, had become a bait?

Since I can do it, why can't others?

Time passed slowly. Normally, people only felt that the time could pass in a moment, but at this moment, it seemed so long.

In any case, the sun was at its highest point and the battle had reached its climax.

As the vanguard retreated, several waves of attacks followed. Li Chengqian looked at the enemy camp and felt something was amiss.

At this point, there was no sign of the Second Prince Li Chengze, and only Ye Chong was commanding in front of the formation. This was very abnormal.

Although the rebels' formation was not in disarray, this was only supported by Ye Zhong's prestige and ability. The morale was completely different from that with the Second Prince coming forward.

This will also let these rebels know what they are fighting for.

This feeling made Li Chengqian feel irritated. As his irritation grew, he could no longer endure it and shouted, "Where is the messenger?"

A soldier holding a command flag came from the rear and knelt down with his fists clenched.

"Where are the Imperial Guards now?"

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Guards are not taking any action."

"What did you say?" Li Chengqian's eyes widened. "The imperial guards haven't come yet. Why did you report it now?!"

"I have already sent two groups of soldiers to deliver the message, but for some reason, neither group has returned yet."

Hahaha, can't you even see this?

Those people had already been killed by the imperial guards!

Li Chengqian laughed angrily, turned around and pulled out a long sword from a soldier, and killed the messenger with one blow, shouting: "It's really stupid, one or two of them want to rebel against me!"

Throwing the blood-stained sword in his hand onto the city wall, Li Chengqian left quickly. He wanted to find Qin Ye who was inspecting the battle situation. He wanted to contact his people and kill Ning Cairen, the mother of the eldest prince Li Chengzong!

Everyone has his own plans and is working hard for his own benefit.

The entire Kyoto seemed very quiet except for outside the city.

Out of fear, people locked themselves in their homes, listening to the noises outside. The streets that used to be bustling and even a little crowded were now empty, and the major government offices that governed the capital were now deserted and silent.

It was so quiet, as if this bustling city had turned into a dead city.

This is the horror and charm of war!

Time goes back to three hours ago, and the royal villa welcomed an uninvited guest.

······

The extremely violent sword energy broke open the gate of the royal villa. At this time, the ground outside the gate was full of dead bodies. Li An understood that these were just appetizers, and the real elite people were still in the courtyard.

Kill the enemy with domineering power, and Tianyi will protect you.

As his true energy exploded, Li An followed the sword and broke into the front yard. In a moment, he killed all the enemies in the yard without letting them make any sound at all!

He was like a ghost, terrifying.

Li Chengqian even abandoned the imperial palace. Do you think you can stop him with just Li Yunrui's small royal villa?

In the backyard, Li Yunrui was not only standing in front of Concubine Ning. In this quiet and elegant place surrounded by flowers, Concubine Yi and the Queen (now the Empress Dowager) were also present.

The presence of all the people who should be present brought convenience to Ang Lee and saved him a lot of trouble.

Last night, things got really serious and no one could sleep, so when Li An broke into the backyard, they hadn't come back to their senses yet. Concubine Yi originally thought that it was Fan Xian coming to help, and she was delighted, but when she saw Li An, who was like a murderous god, the joyful smile on her face froze. Her mind was tense and relaxed, and she saw the bright red corpses behind Li An in the corner of her eyes. Her legs softened and she wanted to fall to the ground.

Such an impolite behavior made the queen frown with a look of disdain.

"Mr. Li, when you come here, you only need to hand over your visiting card and say hello. Why do you have to do this and make the whole yard bloody?"

Princess Li Yunrui had already met them in the backyard. Seeing that Li An still had murderous intent and a slight strangeness in his tone, she calmed down under the strong inner repression. She said calmly, "You can take Talent Ning away, but you have to cooperate with me once."

"Give me the man."

The blood was still flowing on the tip of the sword, and Li Ang's words were obviously more convincing.

"Mr. Li, do you agree?"

"I said, give him to me!"

The sword is raised horizontally, which is a sign of action.

Li Yunrui smiled sweetly, unmoved.

The eunuch behind her took a step to the left and walked behind Ning Cairen, with his palms turned outward, and the cloud of life and death was always hanging over the other person.

Even if the person opposite him is the great master Li An, he is confident that he can kill Ning Cairen first.

"I'll give you three breaths. If you don't kill Ning Cairen after three breaths, you will die." Li An walked forward slowly with a blank expression. "If you kill Ning Cairen, everyone in this courtyard will die, including your master!"

The eunuch's body was extremely stiff, and his state of mind was broken at this moment.

Li An could see the other party's condition. As he approached, the hesitant eunuch could no longer kill Ning Cairen before him. "A wise choice!"

At Li An's signal, Ning Cairen, who already had a background in martial arts, nodded slightly and then walked towards Li An.

With a light glance, he tapped with the tip of the sword in his hand, releasing the acupuncture points without hurting anyone. In an instant, Ning Cairen rubbed his arms to circulate his blood and qi, and he was finally free again.

"I don't think you'll refuse."

Looking at Ning Cairen's not very pretty face, Li An said softly: "Afterwards, I can promise Li Chengzong a title of King of the Southern Territory."

"Thank you, Imperial Master." Ning Cairen put away his carefree nature, bowed slightly, and responded respectfully.

He raised his head and stared at the queen and the eldest princess with interest.

I'm afraid you two will have a hard time today.

She did not have a strong sense of belonging to the Kingdom of Qing. Although her son was the eldest prince, looking at the current situation, no matter whether the crown prince won or the second prince was slightly better, she and her son would probably not have a good ending.

The fact that she has now become a hostage to hold her son back is the best proof of this.

And his daughter-in-law is the eldest princess of Northern Qi. With this relationship, why not surrender to Northern Qi?

The general trend of the world was already clear, and Li Ang had a good reputation outside. Ning Cairen let down her guard and felt a little relaxed.

"Now that Mr. Li's matter is over, can we talk about future cooperation?"

Li Yunrui's voice at this time sounded a little cold and stiff. It was obvious that the start of the negotiations was not to her liking.

She is one of the smartest people in the world, and she is also a conspirator. She regrets not being a man and not being able to use her strengths.

But she was still full of confidence in the upcoming negotiations. She was sure that the price she could pay would surely impress the grandmaster in front of her!

However.

"Li Yunrui, do you really think that everyone in the world is your pawn and will trade with your Junshan Society?"

"You are the only one who is qualified to be the chess player?"

Chapter 358 Li Yunrui’s defense is broken.

"What?"

The princess stared at Li An in a daze. She had been expecting something but now her face turned cold. She said calmly, "Has Mr. Li really been so arrogant? If so, it is really a misfortune for Northern Qi. Yun Rui is here to express his dismay for the position of Imperial Master bestowed upon you by the Northern Qi royal family!"

"Haha." Li An seemed to have heard something funny. He smiled at first, but after a moment he burst into laughter, the kind that he couldn't stop.

"You have been taking advantage of others, treating yourself as the chess player, looking down on everyone and being superior to others. This attitude is really disgusting!"

"I was never a noble person like you from the beginning."

"But with his own 'foresight' and the realm of the Grandmaster, he has to do everything himself when encountering difficult things. Moreover, he has fought with the Grandmaster more than once. As a chess player, even I am not qualified, so what can you rely on?"

With every word Li Ang spoke, the murderous intent in his body became more intense, until he had suffocated the opponent and then he dispersed the momentum from his body, as if this intention to target him had never been revealed.

"Yun Rui is not a chess player, but a businessman. He was, is, and will be in the future." The princess looked at Li An, a strange smile appeared on her beautiful face, and said, "Sir, don't you want to hear what Yun Rui can offer?"

"Can you give me anything?" Li An raised his eyebrows in amusement.

"nature!"

I'm not afraid that Ang Lee won't be tempted, I'm just afraid that he has nothing to ask for.

From the tone of her voice, even if someone wanted her, she would clean herself up and give herself to the other person.

"Bah!" The Queen's character could no longer be maintained. After listening to the conversation between the two, she spat at Li Yunrui with disdain: "How shameless! Your own daughter is so old, yet you still seduce your own nephew and now you are even using yourself as a bargaining chip. Humph!"

Li Yunrui pretended not to hear the Queen's sarcasm and just stared at Li An, thinking about the upcoming negotiations and confrontation.

"Sorry, not interested."

Although he was not interested anymore, Li An still asked the last question in his mind about Li Yunrui:

"You sent people to assassinate Fan Xian time and again. Not only were you afraid that Fan Xian would take over the inner treasury, but you also had more resentment towards his mother Ye Qingmei. It can be said that all this started for Emperor Qing. You had feelings for Emperor Qing, but you couldn't get him, so you targeted Crown Prince Li Chengqian, who looked 70% like Emperor Qing. This led to so many absurd things and the current situation of Qing State."

"But now that Emperor Qing has played himself to death, why are you still making these plans?"

Before Li Yunrui could answer, the queen screamed: "You bitch, you bitch!"

"You hurt Cheng Qian so badly before. It turns out you have no sense of shame. You really have no sense of shame!"

"When you were young, you were so lowly that you gave your body to Prime Minister Lin, and you keep so many lovers. How could His Majesty be interested in a rag like you? It's really funny, hahahaha!"

Hearing the Queen's curse, which sounded almost like a curse, Li Yunrui could no longer pretend not to hear it.

Her face slowly darkened, and she said coldly: "Mr. Li, you know that this kind of talk is not good for the deal!"
