After the battle, Xu Cheng ordered the Network to clean up the battlefield and bury his dead brothers.
The Startling Salamander, which hadn't appeared during the entire battle, had appeared at this moment.
There was blood at the corner of his mouth.
"Prince, just now, other than Qi Shenzhi, there was another person lurking around. I was incompetent and joined forces with the Six Sword Slaves to capture him.”
There was such a powerful person lurking?
Once, in the Imperial Residence, Xu Cheng had asked the Six Sword Slaves to challenge Sword God Li. Under a situation where life and death were tied, it was difficult to determine the victor.
The Six Sword Slaves had truly achieved the six of them as one, and they could cooperate with each other with their own strengths.
A natural killer.
Xu Cheng frowned.
He had thought that he had set a trap for Qingyi Brothel, but he did not expect that there would be a mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
He had almost become that mantis.
Who could it be?
Judging from Qi Shenzhi's expression, it should be the royal Li family.
It was probably the scheme of Sima Xi.
I'm still too inexperienced to fight with such an old fox.
Damn, the Li family was really scheming.
The aristocratic families were crippled, and Yan Bei had no descendants.
From then on, the Li family could rest easy.
Then who was the person who had yet to make a move? Who sent them?
He was not with Qi Shenzhi. Otherwise, he would have attacked at the same time. Then, he would probably be dead.
He had no clue. Let's see if the Startling Salamander could find any clues.
"Bring their corpses and we will enter Pi Prefecture's Pi Tai City.”Xu Cheng ordered.
The Three Thousand Snakes naturally did not follow them and hid in the forest.
After passing Fallen Phoenix Break, not long later, they arrived at Pi Tai City.
Pitai City was the capital of Pizhou.
The prefect of Pi Tai was Zhangsun Wufeng, the son of Zhangsun Shunde. Zhangsun Shunde was the uncle of Li Shimin's wife, Zhangsun Wugou.
The Zhangsun Clan was like the sun in the sky.
Xu Cheng knew that his family would still be in the limelight until the time of Empress Wu Zetian.
Early in the morning, Zhangsun Wufeng received news from the bad guys that the heir of Yan Bei, Xu Cheng, would enter Pitai City today.
Therefore, he waited at the city wall.
"Lord Zhangsun, the Prince of Yan Bei has arrived.”the city guard reported.
"Stop them, cool them down, and then let them enter the city.”Zhangsun Wufeng ordered," Don't let that cavalry enter the city.”
"Yes, sir!" The guard accepted the order and left.
Zhangsun Wufeng shook his head. Can he be compared to me when I was a silkpants in Chang 'an? I'm the ancestor of the silkpants.
When Xu Cheng and his group reached the city gate, they were stopped by the city guards.
"You can't enter the city without military orders."
Without waiting for Xu Cheng to speak, Ah Qing rode on his horse and led the Snow Dragon Cavalry to charge.
In the blink of an eye, the dozens of guards at the city gate were all knocked over before they could react.
"Go up the city tower." Xu Cheng said coldly.
When they reached the city gate tower, Zhangsun Wufeng panicked and shouted for help. The other guards quickly rushed over.
Ah Qing's spear knocked Zhangsun Wufeng to the ground.
"Prince, the soldiers of Yan Bei have entered the city. Are they going to rebel?" he asked, trembling.”
Xu Cheng ignored him. With a wave of his hand, the Snow Dragon Cavalry hung a dozen corpses on the city gate tower.
It immediately caused waves of screams and panic.
Bang!
Something was thrown in front of Zhangsun Wufeng. He picked it up and looked at it. It was the official seal of the Crown Prince's Junior Guardian.
" Lord Zhangsun," Xu Cheng said calmly," someone tried to assassinate the Crown Prince's Junior Guardian, the Prince of Yan Bei. What crime should he be punished for?"”
"Ah…Ah?" Zhangsun Wufeng was nervous and helpless." Arrest…arrest?”
"Good!" Xu Cheng threw out a piece of paper." This is all about the mastermind. I'll have to trouble Lord Zhangsun."”
Zhangsun Wufeng opened the paper and took a look. He sat on the ground and saw that it was filled with people from the Yang family.
After the death of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Lin brought the Yang family to live in seclusion in Pi Tai. Who didn't know that the Yang family was the number one family in Pi Tai?
Li Yuan and Yang Lin must have made some kind of deal back then. The royal family treated the Yang family well.
Although the Yang family was not as powerful as the thousand-year-old family, it was not an ordinary family.
"Lord Zhangsun, go and capture them. This prince will wait here.”Xu Cheng sat on his big chair.
Zhangsun Wufeng hurried downstairs.
"Does the prince think that Zhangsun Wufeng can capture the Yang family?”Pei Yuanqing sat down and asked.
"If he can't catch him, he's just going to report it.”Xu Cheng said.
"Then why did you let him go?" Pei Yuanqing did not understand.
"The Yang family will come by themselves. After all, Yang Lin's body is hanging here.”Xu Cheng smiled and asked," Is the list of the twenty or so Yang Family members on my list enough for you to take revenge?”
"Humph, who doesn't deserve to die in the Yang family?”Pei Yuanqing asked," Why did the prince kill the Yang family?”
"It is to tell the world that you can come and assassinate this prince, but if the assassination fails, you will have to bear this prince's anger!”
"I understand. Kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. In the future, whoever wants to assassinate you for any purpose will have to think twice.”
Not long after, the sound of hurried horse hooves could be heard from the street. A bearded man holding an Azure Dragon Saber was galloping over with five to six hundred people.
He crashed into a street and caused a huge commotion.
"They're here. The Yang family is quite arrogant in Pi Tai.”Xu Cheng said.
"That's the Flower Saber Commander Wei Wentong, ranked ninth among the Eighteen Heroes, Yang Lin's capable general.”Pei Yuanqing introduced.
When Wei Wentong arrived at the city gate tower, he jumped off his horse and knelt down.
" Your Highness…Your Highness…" He cried.
After crying for a while, Wei Wentong gritted his teeth."Your Highness, wait a moment. This general will first take the head of that bullsh * t prince.”
"Since you're kneeling, don't stand up.”Xu Chengli said calmly from the city wall.
Wei Wentong laughed sinisterly and was about to stand up.
Ah Qing's spear smashed down with great force.
Wei Wentong looked down on a girl's gun and raised his saber to block!
Boom!
He directly slapped Wei Wentong to his knees.
Crack... Crack...
The bones in his hands and legs were broken.
Ah Qing pressed his spear against Wei Wentong's head and said coldly,""My family's prince didn't ask you to get up.”
"Wei Wentong underestimated his opponent and was crippled by your servant girl.”Pei Yuanqing facepalmed." Although Wei Wentong's strength is not as good as before after he was injured, your servant girl is too overbearing.”
The five to six hundred people behind Wei Wentong didn't have time to react before they were knocked down by the Snow Dragon Cavalry.
Xu Cheng shouted at Zhangsun Wufeng, who was hiding behind,""Lord Zhangsun, you want to use Wei Wentong to deal with me, but he is too weak. Lord Zhangsun, this prince will give you another chance. My seven hundred cavalry will go with you to the Yang family. If we can't catch anyone this time…"
"Prince, I will go now." Zhangsun Wufeng said anxiously.
……
Two hours later, the 20 Yang Family direct descendants were beheaded at the city gate.
Blood splattered all over the city gate.
Yan Bei's son had massacred the Qingyi Pavilion, killing Yang Lin and twenty members of the Yang family.
This news quickly spread throughout the Great Tang.
