"Envoy of Wa Ci?"
Sun Ruowei was stunned when she heard this and immediately diverted her attention."Is there any news of the emperor?"
To her, anything that involved Zhu Qizhen had to be taken to the side.
Zhu Qiyu looked calm and did not answer Sun Ruowei.
"It has ended. It has actually ended so quickly…"
Jiao Jing looked at the scene in front of him and was completely stunned. He went to find Sun Ruowei. How long had it been, and the battle had already ended.
It seemed that he had underestimated the strength of the Breaking Ranks. This army that had suddenly appeared was definitely extremely terrifying.
He looked at Chen Mao, Zhang He, and the others in the crowd, wanting to get as much information as possible. However, Chen Mao and Zhang He didn't dare to pass any information to Jiao Jing at this time.
At this moment, the two of them also understood that if they caused Zhu Qiyu's dissatisfaction, Zhu Qiyu really wouldn't care about their identities at all. That would really kill them.
"Thief, thief!"
When Sun Ruowei saw that she was ignored by Zhu Qiyu, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Her anger was overflowing, but in order to obtain some joy related to Zhu Qizhen, she could only forcefully suppress the anger in her heart.
She wasn't stupid. She could tell at a glance that the internal strife was probably over. Even if she were to cause a ruckus now, there wouldn't be any results. Moreover, she might even miss an opportunity to understand the situation in Zhuqi Town.
The atmosphere became strange. Other than the sound of breathing, there was no other sound.
...
A moment later!
Liang Gui brought the arrogant Bayan Timur to Zhu Qiyu.
"What's going on?"
Bayan Timur looked at the Asura Arena littered with corpses and was instantly a little dumbfounded.
This time, he was ordered by Ye Xian to come to Great Ming as an envoy. His goal was to threaten Zhu Qi Zhen's life and ask for some ransom from Great Ming.
As the emperor of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qizhen was captured by the tile thorn. Wasn't it reasonable to ask for some ransom?
It was worth mentioning that the one who proposed the ransom was Eunuch Xi Ning, who had once served beside Zhu Qi Zhen and later joined Ye Xian.
Not only did Xi Ning give Yexian a ransom proposal, but he also told Yexian that the defenses of Beijing were empty and that they did not have enough troops. He encouraged Yexian to go south first. In addition, during the process of Yexian's army going south, Xi Ning also acted as a very good guide.
No one would have thought that a mere eunuch would bring immeasurable harm to Da Ming in the end.
Liang Gui was also stunned. He didn't know what was going on in front of him. However, after he was slightly stunned, he immediately went forward to salute Sun Ruowei and Zhu Qiyu."I am Liang Gui. Greetings to the Empress Dowager and Prince Hun.”
"Liang Gui, aijia asks you, how is the emperor's current situation?”
Sun Ruowei asked in a trembling voice, her face full of excitement.
A day and a night had passed since the incident at the Earthwood Fortress. During this period of time, she was constantly worried about the safety of Zhu Qizhen. She wanted to know if Zhu Qizhen was dead or alive, and her heart was incomparably tormented.
At this moment, she finally met someone who knew the truth. One could imagine how excited and nervous she was.
He was excited because there was finally news of Zhu Qizhen, but he was nervous because he was afraid of hearing the news of Zhu Qizhen's death.
Liang Gui raised his head and respectfully said,"Empress Dowager, the emperor is very well now. He's just locked up and has lost his freedom."”
In reality, Zhu Qizhen had almost died on the battlefield.
When the Ming army was defeated at Tumu Fortress, the first person to discover Zhu Qizhen was a soldier from the Tile Thorn Army. This soldier did not know Zhu Qizhen's identity.
Zhu Qizhen, who was sitting cross-legged, did not fit in with the Ming soldiers who were fleeing in panic. Just as the soldier was unhappy and was about to go forward and kill Zhu Qizhen, his brother appeared.
Zhu Qizhen was not destined to die. The elder brother of this tile thorn soldier had some knowledge. When he saw Zhu Qizhen's clothes, he felt that Zhu Qizhen was not ordinary. Thus, he brought Zhu Qizhen to his younger brother, King Saikan.
At this point, Zhu Qizhen's identity was confirmed, and his life was saved.
Looking back, Zhu Qizhen might as well die on the battlefield. If that was the case, Great Ming might rise up in anger, or even send troops to the north again.
Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world.
Zhu Qizhen survived, but his survival, the life force that Da Ming had recovered with great difficulty, fell into the abyss once again and never came out again.
"The Emperor is still alive. My son is still alive.”
Sun Ruowei let out a long sigh of relief in her heart and a smile appeared on her face.
Zhu Qizhen was still alive. As long as he was alive, everything was possible.
"His Majesty is still alive!"
Jiao Jing, Chen Mao, and Zhang Wei were excited, and a gleam of light flashed in their eyes.
It was good to be alive. As long as Zhu Qizhen was alive, they still had a chance. So what if Zhu Qiyu stole the throne for a short period of time? As long as they welcomed Zhu Qizhen back, they had plenty of ways to make Zhu Qiyu abdicate.
"Tsk tsk…"
Zhu Qizhen looked at the expressions of Sun Ruowei, Jiao Jing, Chen Mao, Zhang Wei, and the others with a playful expression.
He knew what these people were thinking. However, their thoughts could never be realized because he would never allow Zhu Qizhen to live.
"You are the Great Ming Empress Dowager, right? Your son is currently a guest in our Wa Ci. I am here on the orders of our Grand Preceptor to ask for some money.”
Bayan Timur walked forward and said to Sun Ruowei.
His expression was arrogant and his tone was not polite at all. Between his brows, he did not put Sun Ruowei, the Empress Dowager of Ming Dynasty, in his eyes at all.
"You want money?"
Sun Ruowei was stunned when she heard that, and then she asked expressionlessly,""You can ask for money, but after you get the money, you must let His Majesty go.”
To her, if she could use some money to exchange for Zhu Qizhen's safe return, it would undoubtedly be an extremely cost-effective matter.
When Bayan Timur heard Sun Ruowei's words, a flash of light flashed in his eyes and he said in a deep voice,""Don't worry, our Grand Preceptor is a very honest person. As long as Great Ming pays the money, Grand Preceptor will definitely release the Great Ming Emperor immediately.”
Since ancient times, the grassland had always been a place where the strong were supreme. They had never spoken of any honesty. Therefore, Bayan Timur's words at this time were purely to fool Sun Ruowei.
"Alright, tell me, how much do you want?”
Sun Ruowei said to Bayan Timur without any hesitation.
She only wanted Zhu Qizhen to come back as soon as possible. As for whether Bayan Timur was lying to her, she didn't even think about it.
