"My lord, this trick of deceiving the world is truly a stroke of genius. Yuan Shu was really fooled. He would never have thought that we had already dug a tunnel leading to Shouchun!”
Chen Deng looked at the tunnel entrance and could not help but sigh in admiration.
Liu Wu smiled faintly and looked at Xu Chu."Zhongkang, didn't you want to take revenge on Yuan Shu? I'll give you the credit for breaking Shouchun!”
"Thank you, my lord. Just wait for my good news.”
Xu Chu cupped his hands and stepped into the tunnel first with his ring-head saber in hand.
The three hundred Xu Clan disciples who dared to die didn't hesitate and jumped in one by one.
Liu Wu raised his whip and pointed at Shouchun City behind him."Order the entire army to wait for Zhongkang to open the city gate. The entire army will charge into the city and capture the traitor Yuan Shu alive!”
The blood of the soldiers of the three armies was burning.
…
Shouchun City, Golden Hall.
The wine was fragrant, and the singing and dancing were peaceful.
Yuan Shu seemed to have forgotten about the pain of losing his son and the danger of being besieged. He was immersed in the singing and dancing of the birds, wine and delicacies.
"Yang Qing, why hasn't Lu Bu's daughter entered the palace yet? Did you send someone to inform her?”
Yuan Shu asked unhappily.
Yang Hong hurriedly said," Reporting to Your Majesty, I have already sent someone to pass on the message. That Lu Lingqi is already on her way. I believe she will be here soon."”
Yuan Shu's face turned clear and he snorted coldly,"Zhen wanted to make her the empress, but she repeatedly rejected it perfunctorily. Zhen will enjoy her first tonight and see how she will reject it.”
Yang Hong was shocked. He wanted to persuade Yuan Shu, but he was afraid of disturbing Yuan Shu's mood, so he could only give up.
Outside the main hall.
Gao Shun was accompanying Lu Lingqi on the road to the golden palace.
"Yuan Shu summoned Young Lady into the palace, obviously to take Young Lady as his heir. If Young Lady is unwilling, she can just say that she is ill and do it perfunctorily.”
Gao Shun lowered his voice and reminded.
" He's so aggressive and hateful," Lu Lingqi said coldly." I want to tell him personally that I won't be his empress and make him give up!"”
Gao Shun was shocked." Miss, we are now living under someone else's roof. Miss publicly rejecting Yuan Shu like this will definitely make him angry out of embarrassment. The consequences will be unimaginable."”
"So what?"
"At most, I'll just die. How can I accept his humiliation?”
Lu Lingqi had a fearless expression as she looked at Gao Shun seriously."Uncle Boping, if you don't want to be implicated, you can leave. There's no need to accompany me.”
Gao Shun was shocked. He then said with emotion," If anything happens to Miss, how am I going to explain to Wen Hou? If Miss wants to lay her cards on the table with Yuan Shu, I, Gao Shun, will accompany her. At most, I will die."”
Lu Lingqi was touched by his loyalty.
After feeling touched, she sighed again." Uncle Boping, you're thinking too much. Father actually doesn't care about my life or death at all. Otherwise, why would he refuse to lead the army to rescue us even though he knew that we were surrounded in Shouchun?"”
"Wen Hou, he…"
Gao Shun wanted to explain for Lu Bu, but he was at a loss for words and could only sigh.
At this moment.
Footsteps sounded behind him. Liu Xun stumbled as he ran over.
"General Liu, what happened? Why are you so panicked?”
Gao Shun asked curiously.
Liu Xun's voice trembled." This is bad. Liu Jun has taken the east gate. The army has already charged in. Shouchun City can't be defended anymore!"”
Gao Shun and Lu Lingqi turned pale with fright.
"Why was the east gate suddenly taken by the enemy without any warning?”
Gao Shun asked anxiously.
"I don't know either. It's as if they fell from the sky. I don't know where they came from!”
Liu Xun didn't have time to explain further and rushed towards the main hall.
Gao Shun was bewildered." That Liu Bei, what method did he use? He actually managed to seize the East Gate without anyone noticing. This is too inconceivable."”
Lu Lingqi was also shocked and could not calm down for a long time.
After a long while, she came back to her senses and said meaningfully,"Shouchun is such a strong city, but he broke through it so easily. Uncle Boping, do you still think that person is really Liu Bei?”
Gao Shun's figure shook, and he was momentarily absent-minded.
"Regardless of whether he is Liu Bei or not, this person is a god of war.”
Gao Shun sighed in admiration, but said," Shouchun City will definitely not be able to be defended. Yuan Shu can't even protect himself, so he can't care about us. I'll escort Miss now and take advantage of the chaos to escape from the city."”
Lu Lingqi also felt relieved and nodded in agreement.
Just as she was about to turn around, her eyes suddenly flashed.
"Uncle Boping, the Xu State army has entered the city. The palace will be in chaos. Let's take advantage of the chaos to snatch Yuan Shu's Imperial Jade Seal and then break out of the city!”
Lu Lingqi suggested.
Gao Shun's eyes lit up." Young Lady is right. We snatched the Imperial Jade Seal, which can be considered as revenge against Yuan Shu. When we present this Imperial Jade Seal to Wen Hou, it will definitely be useful in the future."”
The two of them discussed and didn't hesitate, immediately heading straight for the place where the seal was hidden.
…
In the golden palace.
Liu Xun was already kneeling on the ground as he reported the bad news with trepidation.
"Impossible!"
"This is impossible. How could the soldiers of the big-eared bandits sneak into Shouchun City for no reason?”
"Did they fly in? That's impossible!”
Yuan Shu was paralyzed on the Dragon Throne, roaring and shouting hysterically. His mind was in chaos.
Yang Hong said with a bitter face," Your Majesty, that Liu Bei is full of tricks. Who would have known that he would take our city gates without anyone knowing? Shouchun can't be defended anymore. Your Majesty, please quickly break out of the encirclement and head south to Hefei to take refuge."”
Yuan Shu shivered and shouted anxiously,""Liu Xun, quickly go and get the Imperial Jade Seal. Then, call Gao Shun and Lu Lingqi to meet up and protect me as we break out of the encirclement and head south!”
Liu Xun led a group of Royal Guards and left in a hurry.
After a while.
There was only one Royal Forest Guard, covered in blood, kneeling in front of the hall.
"Your Majesty, Gao Shun and Lu Lingqi snatched the Imperial Jade Seal and fled. General Liu couldn't stop them and was killed by Lu Lingqi!”
A bolt of lightning struck his head.
Yuan Shu's mind went blank. He slowly sat down and fell into a daze.
"Your Majesty, that Gao Shun and Lu Lingqi saw that the situation was not good and wanted to snatch the Imperial Jade Seal to go to Hefei and offer it to Lu Feng!”
Yang Hong sobbed.
Yuan Shu woke up and scolded angrily," Lu Bu, you and your daughter are both untrustworthy villains. I should have known that you and your daughter have no loyalty. I should have killed you a long time ago..."
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the tightly shut door was smashed into pieces.
Xu Zhu led a team of white-robed guards and charged in.
Immediately after.
Liu Wu wore a black armor and rode on a dark horse. He slowly rode his horse into the hall.
"Liu Bei?"
Yuan Shu took half a step back and exclaimed.
However, he soon discovered that the domineering aura of the person before him and the sharp killing intent in his eyes were completely different from the Liu Bei he had known back then.
"You are not Liu Bei!"
"Who exactly are you?"
Yuan Shu stood up shakily, pointed at Liu Wu and shouted hoarsely.
