Chapter 240 - This Father Really Didn't Take a Fancy to Him!
Dark clouds shrouded the moon, and even the last of the starlight dimmed. Rows of torches were set up around the campsite, illuminating everything within a hundred meter radius.
There were a few corpses lying at the edge of the camp. They were all wearing Capital Camp military uniforms, and were the soldiers on duty tonight.
It could be seen that the other party was decisive and decisive, and he moved quickly and quickly. After Xiao Feng saw the wound, he only said one sentence.
Yin Xu didn't want to think about why the Death Soldiers of the Duke of Qin would kill so many people. He stared at the enemies staring at him covetously outside the camp and asked, “Either you die, or the Duke of Qin dies. Choose one.”
While he was speaking, Zuo Shaotang walked over with the Duke of Qin under his control. A white jade hand was placed on his neck, if he used even a little bit of strength, the Duke of Qin's life would be lost on the spot.
The Duke of Qin seemed to have been struck dumb. He hadn't said a single word since he appeared, and only looked calmly at his subordinates.
His heart was bursting with joy. He knew the abilities of these death soldiers. If he could face them head on, it would be hard to say who would win and who would not.
The worst thing was that now that he was a hostage, he would be at the mercy of others.
“If he dies, you will all die with him!” The one who stood out was one of the Duke of Qin's capable subordinates. He had a solemn expression on his face, giving off the impression of a killer boss. Fôll0w current novÊls o/n n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(c/o/m)
“Since both sides want to live, there's no need for us to fight. As long as you guys leave, this young master will not harm the Duke of Qin's life.” It had to be said that Seventh Young Master Huo's words at first glance made quite a bit of sense.
“Release them!”
Yin Xu glanced at Xiao Feng, and thought to himself: Could these two be brothers who have been separated for so many years? It really was like that.
Yin Xu flicked his finger, a burst of Qi slashed across Qin Wang's face, and instantly, fresh blood gushed out, “Not everyone has the qualifications to speak to me in such a tone.”
“How dare you!”
Yin Xu sneered, and left an identical wound on the other cheek of the Duke of Qin. “How strange, why do you all think this young master doesn't dare?”
The cold gazes of the Death Soldiers of the Duke of Qin's Palace wavered a little. Yin Xu thought, even if the snake strikes seven inches away at the weak point, with the Duke of Qin holding onto it, he wouldn't be able to cause a ruckus.
“Have you thought it through? Two paths. One, you two retreat. I'll protect the Duke of Qin and bring him safely back to the capital. Once I hand him over, whether or not he lives will have nothing to do with me.
Two, let's fight one round. You have a full three thousand people in one round. For our forty thousand, it doesn't matter if we win or lose.
Seeing that the other party had started to hesitate, Yin Xu picked up a small stone from the ground and placed it in his palm, “I'll give you guys another incense stick of time to think about it, whether you want to hit it or not is up to you guys.”
Yin Xu said as he threw the small stone out of the camp. The stone suddenly bounced back in midair and then exploded, as if it had touched some kind of seal.
“Formation?” The soldiers cried out in surprise, their faces beaming with joy. Confidence exploded as they shouted outside, “Come on, come in if you dare, haha!”
A strange smile flashed across Yin Xu's face, but he didn't stop them from being arrogant.
Qin Wang sighed, he turned and shook his head at his subordinates, he knew that this time, he was completely defeated, if he wanted to live, he could only do so by Yin Xu.
Yin Xu did not say anything, but took the plate of pastries from his hands. This was something that the chef had gone through great trouble to make for him, although the taste was average, it was better than nothing.
“I have a lot of resources on my hands, connections, money, weapons. I'm sure all of you will be interested in these.”
Yin Xu declined to comment, “Money, we have, if it is not enough, we can go and snatch it, weapons, we also have, if it is not enough, we can continue to forge it, as for connections, the people you gave us we do not dare use.”
The Duke of Qin sighed, “I sincerely want to negotiate a trade with you, or ask Teng Yu for his opinion. I think he will be very interested in what I have in hand.”
Yin Xu had no doubt about this. If he could obtain all of the Duke of Qin's resources, it would be equivalent to the two of them working together.
Yin Xu looked at him with shining eyes, “What do you want to exchange? If you want me to let you go, there's no way. “
The Duke of Qin probably already knew this answer, so he didn't express his disappointment. “I don't know how you plan on dealing with my wife and children?”
Yin Xu blinked his eyes, “Of course it's to be sent to Shang Jing together with you.” Could he say that he had forgotten these people at all? If the Duke of Qin hadn't mentioned it, he probably wouldn't have gone to cause trouble for them.
“They aren't important. How about I use the money I have to buy their lives? No one would complain about having too much money. “
“How much?”
Yin Xu stood there unmoving, at least on the surface, not a single ripple of emotion could be seen. He only asked: “Does the contribution of Xiao Family include here?”
The Duke of Qin nodded, having a bad premonition.
Sure enough, Yin Xu then said: “That won't do, I have already decided on the assets you put in the yamen. After deducting all of these, you can at most buy one person's life.”
The Duke of Qin's face finally darkened. “What if we add in ten thousand stone worth of food?”
Yin Xu waved his hand, “We are not going to rebel like you, and we do not plan to fight for a long time either. We do not need that much food.”
The Duke of Qin could probably guess some of Teng Yu's plans. Speaking of which, the reason he was exposed and decided to take the risk of betraying the others was because of Teng Yu.
As for the other scapegoat, Second Prince, the Duke of Qin knew from the very beginning that the Emperor had been used as a scapegoat.
His original confidence had been struck down to nothing. The Duke of Qin asked weakly, “Then what do you want?”
Yin Xu thought for a while, “This matter will be decided by Teng Yu, I will give you a reply in a few days.”
The Duke of Qin nodded helplessly, and looked at Yin Xu worriedly. “I hope you guys can stay old from the start, but do you think that's possible?”
“Why not?”
“A man's heart will change, especially when he is faced with more and more temptations, and once he sits in that position, many things can't be helped. The people of this world can accept princes have men as wives, they can accept emperors have men as pets, but they can never accept emperors have men as emperors! Can you bear to have his children with a woman in his arms? “
Qin Wang dared to bet that Yin Xu would not be able to endure it. This youth's arrogance was written all over his face and his entire body was shining with sharpness.
Yin Xu seemed to be troubled as he pondered for a while. Then, he came to a realization: “If Teng Yu doesn't have this kind of determination and boldness, then I'll take the seat myself. At that time, I'll definitely marry him!”
Hearing that, the Duke of Qin was stunned, but he then saw Yin Xu laughing at him, “Other than him, there's nothing in this world that I care about.”
