Chapter 412 Rebellious Thief
Chapter 412 Rebellious Thief
Hearing the communication between the two, Wei Da, who was standing by, couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
He never imagined that without his knowledge, there was such a deep meaning hidden behind Song Yuan's behavior!
"I have to say, Your Highness's methods are truly powerful. I admire you!"
Just as Wei Da was surprised, Murong Lie had already made a bitter face and shook his head with a smile: "My Lord, you and I will split up. In this way, I will naturally be wary of your existence. As long as you are still alive, I will never make things difficult for the princess!"
"Not only can I not touch the princess, I also have to protect him. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will have to settle the score later!"
"In this case, I have no choice but to follow the princess and deal with General Wei together. Although this matter is the immoral behavior of Wei, in the eyes of outsiders, it is as if you and I are tied together!"
"Now that I'm on board, it's going to be hard to move on. The prince is really calculating!"
"To be honest, I really didn't think too much about the things that happened later!"
Sensing Murong Lie's complaints, Song Yuan shook his head frankly: "You and I both know that the situation was critical at the time. Finding a way to break out was already a difficult task. I did that only to protect myself, not to drag anyone else into it!"
Song Yuan had said before that human hearts are the most unreliable, so he was a little hesitant. What choice would Murong Lie make next?
In the face of uncertainty, how can we plan for future development?
It can be said that Murong Lie helped Song Yuan a lot invisibly. Relying on Murong Lie's prestige, he successfully saved the current situation.
At this point, Murong Lie and Song Yuan are like grasshoppers tied to the same rope. It is too late to turn back now.
There is only one choice left for Murong Lie!
That is to follow Song Yuan until the end!
Otherwise, even if Murong Lie wanted to go back on his word, he might not be innocent in the eyes of outsiders.
"To be honest, I do recognize your ability, Your Highness. However, I am only worried about one thing. Your Highness also knows that I am not alone. Right now, I am worried about my relatives!"
Murong Lie spoke directly to Song Yuan what he was thinking. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, his actions were tantamount to betraying the emperor.
When Murong Lie left Beijing, his family members were all in the imperial city because of the frontier generals.
If the relationship between Song Yuan and that Majesty escalates and ends up with swords, Majesty will definitely not spare Murong Lie's relatives, and those family members will definitely suffer!
"General Murong, I can't guarantee anything else, but you can be completely assured of this one thing!"
Noticing the seriousness in Murong Lie's expression, Song Yuan spoke directly to comfort him.
"You may not understand my father's thoughts, but I can guess a little. I'm sure that in his eyes, whether it's you, me, or your family members, even if all of us are put together, we are far less important than those from Sanbian City!"
At the beginning, facing the brutal attack of the barbarians, Song Youji personally led the army, but in the end, he still lost a large amount of land.
Sanbian City was given away by Song Youji. If it cannot be taken back, it means that this emperor will be infamous for eternity!
According to history books, he was the sinner who gave away land!
Even if it's just for fame, or to die with eyes closed, Song Youji will never let go of the opportunity to seize Sanbian City!
"So if I'm not mistaken, His Majesty will not only not make things difficult for your family, but he will even find a way to send someone to send them to the border!"
"Hmm?" Upon hearing Song Yuan's words, a glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in Murong Lie's eyes.
"Your Highness, what do you mean by that? Don't you have any solution?"
Facing Murong Lie's eagerness, Song Yuan smiled and nodded, then began to explain.
"It's not really a solution, it's just a deal. I'm making a deal with my father, using what he wants in exchange for the safety of your wife and daughter!"
"I'm 90% sure that the Emperor Father won't refuse. Now, General Murong can finally rest assured, right?"
……
It was just getting dark.
Everyone had already followed Song Yuan's previous instructions and led the army to retreat outside Tianshan City.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Song Yuan brought a hundred people to the foot of Tianshan City, keeping a safe distance. Song Yuan waved his hand and gave instructions to the people behind him.
"Use all your might and shout out everything I told you to say!"
"The King of Jingbei has issued an order. General Wei's secret dealings with the barbarians are already a crime of treason. Considering the hardships endured by the soldiers of Tianshan City, the prince will grant you a chance to live! Those who are willing to leave the city and surrender will have their previous offenses forgiven. If you can capture the Wei man alive, you will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins!"
Such a commotion spread to Tianshan City. As time passed, General Wei soon became unable to sit still.
Under the escort of several personal guards, General Wei finally climbed up the city wall. However, he did not notice that when he saw Song Yuan's figure in the distance, the expressions of the people around him changed obviously.
They were the spies that Song Yuan had previously placed next to General Wei. Now that they saw Song Yuan return safely, they all felt relieved.
As long as this prince is alive, everyone will know what to choose next!
What they were most worried about was that Song Yuan would die in the border area. If they captured General Wei in that case, they would most likely end up in a situation where they were in trouble both inside and outside.
But now with Song Yuan's support, the entire situation was reversed in an instant.
They believed Song Yuan's promise, and ripples of emotion appeared in their hearts.
"Song Yuan, the traitor, stop your nonsense! It's clearly you who's plotting rebellion, and now you're trying to frame me with this lame excuse!"
In order to consolidate his reputation, General Wei at this moment opened his throat and roared towards the outside of the city.
"His Majesty dotes on you. Since you arrived at the border, he has been telling me to keep you safe at all costs. It's clearly you who are greedy and reckless, which is why the unrest in the three border cities has occurred!"
"You're so angry now, unwilling to accept this failure, and even trying to blame everything on me. Don't think everyone is blind. If you want to throw dirty water on me, at least find a proper reason!"
"Wei, you despicable bastard! It's because of you that I, along with my 40,000-strong army, are trapped in Sanbian City. It was you who leaked all the intelligence, allowing the enemy to intercept us so accurately!"
Faced with General Wei's sophistry, Song Yuan personally stepped in and roared angrily.
"Today I must capture you alive. Only in this way can I redeem myself and avenge the brothers who died at the edge of Sanbian City!"
