Ru Feng asked Lie Yan Ge beside him and found out that this was a palace maid of the Eastern Yao Imperial Palace. Dongfang Yu had threatened this palace maid that her entire family would die if she dared to expose herself. In order to achieve her goal, Dongfang Yu had resorted to unscrupulous means.
This could not help but remind Ru Feng of Beichen Yan. The two of them imagined that Beichen Yan's fate would be the same as Dongfang Yu's. After Mo Jin found out that he had been played by Dongfang Yu, he became even more furious and prepared to kill his way back.
However, Rufeng stopped Mo Jin. Rufeng couldn't bear to see this palace maid lose her entire family because of him. Rufeng promised this palace maid to help her bring her entire family to Beichen. Rufeng would arrange everything for them and ensure their safety.
The palace maid sobbed and hurriedly thanked him.
Rufeng and Mo Jin had won their first battle, and Beichen Bing was waiting outside the city gate to welcome them. After that, a celebration banquet was held. At the banquet, Ru Feng was even conferred the title of general.
Then, Ru Feng said to the emperor, Beichen Bing,""Your Majesty, the Emperor of Eastern Glory doesn't take us seriously.”Ru Feng told Beichen Bing what had happened. Beichen Bing slammed the table angrily and said,"Dongfang Yu is too much. She really doesn't take our Beichen Kingdom seriously.”
"Your Majesty, I request for an imperial edict to declare war against Eastern Glory.”Ru Feng gritted his teeth.
"Alright, I promise you. Rufeng, I'll appoint you as the main general this time so that you can defeat Eastern Glory as soon as possible.”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Then, Beichen Bing sent a letter of challenge to Dongfang Yu and sent troops to attack Eastern Glory. Rufeng was the main commander this time and was at the forefront. Before Dongfang Yu could catch her breath, Beichen had already issued a challenge.
Dongfang Yu was in a difficult position because she never expected Beichen to have Dapao. If she had known, she would not have provoked Beichen no matter what.
He just felt that Beichen Bing had just taken over and was still very young. He could take advantage of this moment to pick up the slack. However, he did not expect Beichen Bing's ability to be so much stronger than Beichen Yan's.
Now, there was still Mo Rufeng. Dongfang Yu felt uneasy and didn't know what to do. He knew that Eastern Yao had no chance of winning this war.
Ru Feng led the soldiers all the way to the palace gate. Dongfang Yu sent people to negotiate a truce, but Ru Feng ignored Dongfang Yu's move and directly attacked the city gate, successfully killing his way in.
This was the first time Ru Feng had returned to the Eastern Glory Imperial Palace after so many years. He hated Dongfang Yu even more."Dong Fang Yu, today is the day you die.”
At this moment, Mo Jin suddenly rode his horse over. Mo Jin immediately shouted to stop and said to Ru Feng,""In the name of the emperor, we will return to Beichen immediately.”
"Why? The dog emperor of Dongyao hasn't been killed yet." Ru Feng said angrily.
"Dong Fang Yu surrendered to the emperor and said that she was willing to cede one-third of the land to our Beichen. She was also willing to pay taxes to us every year. Ru Feng, you know how important these lands are to our Beichen.
"Some time ago, there was a drought in Beichen. The people of Beichen could not even eat. Many people starved to death. However, now that Dong Fang Yu is willing to give us a third of her land, our people of Beichen can be saved.”
Mo Jin said very anxiously. Mo Jin was also unwilling, so he understood. However, he also understood that Emperor Beichen Bing could not put the country in danger because of personal grudges.
"No, I must kill that dog Emperor today for my mother, grandfather, and grandmother, as well as the hundreds of people in the General's Estate.”Rufeng shouted.
"Feng 'er! When the country is in trouble, everyone has a responsibility. Moreover, you are a general personally appointed by the emperor. You have to understand the sufferings of the people.
Sometimes, we can't do what we want to do, but Feng 'er, it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. There will definitely be other opportunities.”Mo Jin looked at Ru Feng and said earnestly.
Ru Feng cried out in pain," Ah, ah, ah…Dongfang Yu, you're lucky today. I'll let you live for now. One day, I'll kill you. Retreat and return to Beichen!!!”
Ru Feng had defeated his inner demons. For the safety of the country, he had abandoned his principles. However, Ru Feng did not regret it.
Because he was different from Dong Fang Yu and Bei Chen Yan. He would not harm the interests of others for his own benefit.
He wouldn't let so many Beichen citizens die for him just for a moment of pleasure. Rufeng couldn't do that. This was what a person should be like.
Mo Jin looked at Ru Feng and locked himself in his room the moment he came back. He had not eaten or drunk for three days, but no matter how Mo Jin called out, Ru Feng was indifferent. On the fourth day, Ru Feng walked out of his room and went to Mo Jin's room.
He said to Mo Jin," Father, I've had enough sleep these past few days. I don't blame anyone. Dongfang Yu will definitely have the ending he deserves." I thought about it a lot. You were right the other day. I'm both mother and your son, and I'm Yange's brother. But at the same time, I'm also Beichen's general, the emperor's subject.
So, that day, I felt that the first role I should play was to be Beichen's general, the emperor's official, and then you and mother's son, Yange's brother. So, I chose to let Dongfang Yu go that day. I don't regret it.
I couldn't convince myself these days because when I returned to my family, I was a son and an elder brother. Although I didn't let down my country and the emperor, I was very ashamed of my mother, sister, and family.
The enemy was right in front of me, but I turned around and left. I really couldn't convince myself for a moment. I felt very guilty. I really didn't know what method I could use to have both sides.”
After saying that, Ru Feng, for the first time, cried in front of Mo Jin. Mo Jin was at a loss for words. He had never seen Ru Feng cry before. No matter how badly Ru Feng was injured outside, he had never shed a single tear. No matter what happened, Ru Feng was very strong.
However, this time, Rufeng really…As the saying goes, a man does not shed tears easily. It's just that he has not yet reached the point of sadness.
Mo Jin looked at his son. He was in more pain than Ru Feng." Son, your mother, maternal grandfather, and everyone in the General's Estate will not blame you because you made the right choice.
You are not a person who is blinded by hatred. You will not abandon the people of Beichen for your own sake. We are all proud of you. Son, Father is really proud of you. To have you as a son, Father has no regrets in this life.”Mo Jin said affectionately to Ru Feng.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:122120183:48AM
