Yuan Yao being captured meant that she did not have to be wronged and marry that mediocre trash.
How could Lu Lingqi not be happy?
Gao Shun's expression changed." Liu Bei has less than 10,000 soldiers," he said in surprise." How dare he attack Zhong Li and start a war with Yuan Shu?"”
These words reminded Lu Lingqi of the seriousness of the situation.
She frowned and said in a deep voice," He attacked Zhong Li to open Shouchun's door and swallow Huainan. Such ambition and boldness are not something Liu Bei can have."”
"Uncle Boping!"
Lu Lingqi suddenly turned around and looked at Gao Shun."Are you sure that it was really Liu Bei who chased father out of Xu Prefecture and not someone else?”
This sudden question stumped Gao Shun.
"Ever since he defeated the West Coast soldiers, he has indeed been reborn. Not only did his intelligence and martial arts skills increase greatly, he was even able to exchange two moves with Wen Hou and not die.”
"But, if he wasn't Liu Bei, why would Guan Yu and the others respect him as their master and obey his orders?”
Gao Shun's eyes were filled with confusion and he did not know how to explain.
At this moment, the remaining Yuan Zu at the ferry had already scrambled to get onto the boat, interrupting their conversation.
Lu Lingqi came back to her senses and sighed."Forget it, don't worry about whether Liu Bei is Liu Bei or not. Since Zhong Li is gone, let's return to Shouchun first.”
Gao Shun came to his senses and hurriedly escorted Lu Lingqi onto the boat, returning to Shouchun.
Zhong Li gradually left. Under the light of the fire, the flag with the word " Liu " was raised on the city wall, announcing that the gate of Huainan had changed hands.
"If he isn't Liu Bei, then who could have such courage and strategy?”
Lu Lingqi muttered to herself as she looked at the distant Zhongli City. Her bright eyes flickered with deep suspicion.
…
Zhongli City.
When the sky started to brighten, the killing sounds finally died down.
On the four-gate tower of Zhongli, the Liu flag danced in the morning light.
Merchant ships carrying the Xu Prefecture army arrived at Zhongli City.
Liu Wu, who was wearing black armor, climbed up the city tower and looked down at the Shouchun Gate.
"My lord, using White Horse Righteousness to attack Zhong Li is really the best strategy. Yuan Shu was indeed unprepared!”
Chen Deng cupped his hands and praised.
Liu Wu smiled and said nothing.
Footsteps sounded. Zhao Yun climbed up the city wall and threw the two miserable captives in front of Liu Wu.
"My lord, these two thieves are Yuan Shu's eldest son, Yuan Yao, and Yuan Shu's trusted minister, Yan Xiang.”
"Yun has already captured the two of them alive. Please punish them!”
Zhao Yun cupped her hands.
Liu Wu's eyes lit up.
Zhao Yun had already made a contribution by taking down Zhong Li. He did not expect his luck to be so good that he even captured Yuan Shu's son alive.
What a pleasant surprise!
"Yuan Yao, what else do you have to say?!" Liu Wu's gaze was like a blade as he said in a deep voice.”
Yuan Yao struggled to stand up and dusted off the dirt on his body. He raised his head and faced Liu Wu, still wearing the arrogance and self-confidence of the Yuan Family's Crown Prince.
"Liu Xuande, my Imperial Father has shown mercy by not attacking your Xu Prefecture.”
"You actually dare to lead an army to invade my Huainan. You have guts!”
Yuan Yao's eyes were filled with indignation as he reprimanded Liu Wu.
All the generals around him were furious.
Liu Wu's sword-like eyebrows froze, and he said coldly," Yi De, I don't like him talking to me while standing. Break his legs."”
This order stunned Zhang Fei.
One had to know that his adopted brother Liu Bei had always been wary of the name of benevolence and righteousness. Even when dealing with his mortal enemies, he would be polite and polite. Not to mention using violence, he did not even dare to say a word of humiliation.
Liu Wu actually wanted him to break Yuan Yao's legs!
Such brutality was not Liu Bei's style at all.
"This brat is much more ruthless than big brother. He really suits my taste…"
After Zhang Fei was stunned, he was delighted.
Without another word, he stepped forward and swept at Yuan Yao.
There was a crisp sound and a miserable cry.
Both of Yuan Yao's legs were instantly broken. He knelt on the ground and howled in agony.
This scene left Chen Deng and Zhao Yun dumbstruck.
"His methods are overbearing and ruthless. He has the demeanor of Cao Gong. He is completely different from that Envoy Liu. This is the way to calm down the chaotic world."
Chen Deng nodded slightly, secretly praising him.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.
A person was reborn from the ashes. Was the lord in front of him really Liu Xuande?
Chen Deng couldn't help but raise his head and secretly sized up the domineering Overseer of Xu Prefecture, who was clad in black armor.
The guesses in his heart became more and more intense.
"Liu Bei, my Imperial Father is the Son of Heaven. What status do I have? How dare you treat me like this!”
"My Imperial Father will not spare you…"
Yuan Yao, who was lying on the ground, let out a hysterical roar.
"Who does Yuan Shu think he is? He's just a good-for-nothing. Relying on his family background of four generations of the Yuan family, he dares to be arrogant to the point of arrogating the throne and usurping my Liu family's territory!”
"Today, I will kill you first, then kill you, Yuan Shu, and exterminate your entire Yuan Family!”
"Men, drag this thief down and behead him!”
Liu Wu's killing intent burned as he waved his hand and shouted.
Yuan Yao was instantly shocked.
He thought that Liu Bei had always been kind and righteous, and considering Yuan Shu's strength, even if he captured him alive, he would not dare to make things difficult for him.
However, he did not expect that this 'Liu Bei' in front of him would not play by the rules. Not only did he torture him, he even wanted to kill him.
Was this still Liu Bei?
In fear, Yuan Yao anxiously shouted,""Envoy Liu, please calm down. I opposed my father becoming the emperor, but unfortunately, my father was deceived by treacherous officials and didn't listen to my advice. I'm still loyal to the Great Han Dynasty ~~"
His will crumbled and he begged for mercy.
Zhao Yun and the others around him looked at him with disdain.
Liu Wu sneered." Yuan Shu is a good-for-nothing. His son is indeed a coward. Is this the Yuan Family that has four generations and three dukes?!"”
Hearing such mockery, Yuan Yao was incomparably ashamed, but he did not dare to make a sound. He could only lower his head and endure it.
Liu Wu's killing intent rose again." What are you waiting for?" he shouted." Kill this traitor and let the rebels of Huainan know the consequences of following Yuan Shu!"”
The white-robed guards received the order and rushed forward to carry Yuan Yao away.
"Envoy Liu, please calm down. Please spare my life ~~"
Yuan Yao was so frightened that he collapsed and cried out for mercy in sorrow.
Liu Wu was indifferent.
Yan Xiang by the side could not help but shake his head and sigh when he saw Yuan Yao's ugly state.
"You must be Yan Xiang. If you have any last words, say it.”
Liu Wu's gaze turned to the kneeling Yan Xiang.
Yan Xiang's body trembled.
At this moment.
Chen Deng whispered," My lord, this Yan Xiang is quite intelligent. When he heard that Yuan Shu had become the emperor, he had also advised him. Why don't you take him in and use him?"”
"So what if he did persuade him? In the end, he still became Yuan Shu's official!”
Liu Wu's face was as cold as steel." I want to execute him as well," he said sternly." I want the world to know what the consequences are for those who try to usurp the Han Dynasty!"”
Chen Deng's body trembled. He was truly shocked by Liu Wu's domineering lightning.
In an instant, the way he looked at Liu Wu was not only filled with respect, but also fear.
Yan Xiang also raised his head abruptly and looked at Liu Wu in shock. He could not believe that the person in front of him was the Liu Bei with the reputation of benevolence and righteousness.
"Envoy Liu, since I've followed Yuan Shu, I've betrayed the Great Han Dynasty. Now that I'm in your hands, I'll die without complaint even if you want to kill me.”
"Before I die, I just want to ask, who gave you the plan of your White Horse Righteous Follower to attack Zhong Li?”
Yan Xiang didn't have the heart to beg for mercy, but he wanted to clear his doubts before he died.
He looked at Chen Deng, thinking that Liu Wu would say that Chen Deng was the one who offered this plan.
Chen Deng said," Yan Xiang, you're wrong. Using the White Horse Righteousness to attack Zhong Li from the dry road was my lord's brilliant plan."”
Yan Xiang's body shook as he looked at Liu Wu, his eyes filled with shock and confusion.
"The Liu Xuande I know can't possibly have such a plan. If you're not Liu Xuande, then who are you?”
Yan Xiang suddenly became agitated and questioned like a madman.
Liu Wu naturally wouldn't answer. He waved his hand indifferently.
The white-robed guards rushed forward and dragged Yan Xiang away.
"Who are you? Who are you?”
Xie Siye's angry cries echoed above Zhong Li.
Liu Wu pointed to the west and shouted,""Today, we will take all the wine and meat from the treasury to reward the three armies. Tomorrow, we will not stop and go straight to Shouchun!”
On the city wall, the soldiers cheered loudly.
"Such wisdom and boldness, is it really as Yan Xiang said, he really isn't Liu Xuande?”
Chen Deng looked at the towering figure, and his guess gradually deepened.
