Ye Li's Shadow Guard also quickly fought with the West-Hill people. With just a few glances, Ye Li could tell that although these people were wearing West-Hill soldiers' uniforms, they were not real soldiers. They were more like jianghu masters. Ye Li looked up at Lei Tengfeng, who was also looking at her. She smiled coldly and said, "Kill!"
"As you command!"
The Shadow Guard and the soldiers who came with her immediately became excited. They sharpened their swords and charged at the West-Hill people. Soon, the two sides were engaged in a fierce battle.
It was difficult for two fists to fight against four hands. This principle was once again proven by Qin Feng's specially trained soldiers. When the fighting was coming to an end, Jhennam Of Gojoseon was once again a captive of the Da Chu State. Looking at Jhennam Of Gojoseon who was brought back, Ye Li raised her eyebrows in a good mood. Jhennam Of Gojoseon's smile was a rare bitterness. "The Mohist army is well-trained. I admire you." Ye Li smiled and said, "Prince is too polite. The Prince is one of the few masters in the world. It is their fortune to be able to receive guidance from the Prince." Ye Li's eyes were filled with satisfaction as she pointed at the soldiers who had just defeated another expert of that era. Although everyone was injured, the soldiers' morale was high. After hearing Ye Li's words, they raised their heads and puffed out their chests. They saluted Jhennam Of Gojoseon and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Jhennam Of Gojoseon." To be honest, even if Jhennam Of Gojoseon only had one arm, he was still more difficult to deal with than Mu Qingcang, who was known as the Da Chu State's number one master. Just by looking at everyone's injuries, it was obvious that if they didn't already have the experience of defeating Mu Qingcang, it would be even more difficult to defeat Jhennam Of Gojoseon. This was because Jhennam Of Gojoseon respected his status and did not fight to the death with them. Otherwise, it would be hard to avoid casualties.
Jhennam Of Gojoseon's face twitched slightly. He looked at Ye Li and asked, "What are Princess Ding's plans now?"
Ye Li said with a smile, "Prince is making things difficult for this consort. Wouldn't it be better for everyone to exchange hostages peacefully and return home? But now, what should I do? "
On the other side, Lei Tengfeng smiled bitterly and said, "Wangfei, this matter is this lowly prince's fault. Wangfei, please be magnanimous and let Wangfei go." Ye Li said indifferently, "Shizi speaks lightly. If it was the Southern Marquis Shizi or this consort who was injured, what would Shizi's attitude be right now?" Lei Tengfeng knew he was in the wrong. He sighed and said, "As long as this lowly prince can do it, Wangfei, please do not hesitate to ask." Today, he had been too reckless. He thought that Ye Li would not have made any preparations. He didn't think that Ye Li's arrangements were waiting for him to make a move. Ye Li thought for a moment and asked, "How about Shizi lead the army out of Da Chu State?"
Lei Tengfeng's expression darkened slightly. He said, "Wangfei is making things difficult for this lowly prince."
Ye Li raised her eyebrows and looked somewhat helplessly at Jhennam Of Gojoseon. She said, "Prince, so a mere Xinyang City isn't even worth it. Is Xiling's Jhennam Of Gojoseon so cheap?" Jhennam Of Gojoseon smiled faintly and said, "To take Xinyang, Xiling sacrificed countless soldiers. This matter is not something my son can decide. Wangfei is making things difficult for him." Ye Li narrowed her eyes slightly and quickly said, "Alright, this consort will not make things difficult for him. Fifty thousand dan of grain and five million taels of silver. "
"Wangfei is speaking too carelessly!" Lei Tengfeng frowned. Ye Li snorted coldly and said sternly, "Cut off Jhennam Of Gojoseon's other hand!" Zhuo Jing nodded and said, "As you command."
Seeing that Zhuo Jing had indeed pulled out his sword from the soldier behind him and was about to swing it at Jhennam Of Gojoseon, Lei Tengfeng hurriedly stopped him. "Wangfei, please wait!"
Ye Li raised her eyebrows and looked at him indifferently. After a while, Lei Tengfeng finally nodded and said, "Alright, it's a deal. But this lowly prince needs time. Also, Wangfei must guarantee that Father will not be harmed in any way. Otherwise, this lowly prince will slaughter all the people of East Chu wherever the army goes! "Ye Li's smile became even colder." In five days, it will still be here. Also, Shizi Lei had better not be joking. Otherwise, this consort does not mind killing all the generals of Xiling. For example, Zheng Bian. Of course, this consort does not mind slaughtering all of Xiling! "
Lei Tengfeng's heart trembled. He looked deeply at Ye Li and nodded. "It's a deal."
When they returned to Jiangxia, Ye Li waved her hand and had people take Jhennam Of Gojoseon and the others away. She took Marquis Nan Shizi to see Marquis Nan, who had been anxiously waiting. Seeing his son come back covered in injuries, Marquis Nan was pleasantly surprised and distressed. He looked his son up and down and did not forget to ask him where he was injured. Marquis Nan Shizi probably did not expect that he would have the chance to see his parents again in this life. His eyes reddened. He broke free from Marquis Nan's hand and knelt on the ground. He said in a low voice, "This child has embarrassed Father."
Marquis Nan pulled him up and said tearfully, "Silly child, it's good that you're back. Why are you still talking about this? It's good that you're back … "After the initial joy, Marquis Nan remembered that Ye Li and the others were still present. He quickly wiped his tears and pulled his son." It's all thanks to Wang Fei that you can come back safely. Quickly thank Wang Fei for saving your life. "Marquis Nan Shizi stepped forward and bowed." Many thanks to Wang Fei for saving my life. "Ye Li pursed her lips and smiled." Brother-in-law, you don't have to be so formal. We're family. Did Brother-in-law do anything wrong? Did the people of Xiling hurt you? " Marquis Nan and his son looked at each other. Marquis Nan Shizi shook his head and smiled. "It's just a small injury. Many thanks … Third Sister for your concern. If you need anything in the future, just tell me. The Nan Marquis Residence will definitely help you. " Ye Li smiled and thanked him. She knew that even if the Nan Marquis Residence could not help the Prince Ding Mansion in the future, they would definitely not become the enemy of the Prince Ding Mansion.
This time, Lei Tengfeng did not play any tricks. Five days later, at the same time, at the same place, fifty thousand dan of rations and five million taels of silver were delivered to Ye Li. Ye Li also kept her promise and released Jhennam Of Gojoseon. Jhennam Of Gojoseon returned to Xiling's camp. He turned his head and looked deeply at Ye Li. "I was too arrogant. Wang Fei has won this round. Princess Ding, we still have a long time ahead of us. " Ye Li smiled sweetly and said, "Prince is joking. How can I dare to say that I have won against Prince? I was just lucky." Jhennam Of Gojoseon's expression became slightly subservient. He turned around and left. She was neither arrogant in victory nor discouraged in defeat. Wang Fei, a woman, had easily won a large amount of rations and silver from Xiling. However, she did not show any arrogance on her face. As expected, she was not someone an ordinary woman could compare to.
Ye Li watched as Jhennam Of Gojoseon's figure disappeared into the Xiling army. She turned around and said to Feng Zhiyao, "Pass down the order, the entire army is on guard."
“？” Feng Zhiyao raised his eyebrows in confusion. Ye Li said indifferently, "After suffering such a big loss, how can Jhennam Of Gojoseon not take revenge?"
"Wang Fei, Xinyang has been reclaimed by our army!" A soldier rushed in with a face full of joy.
Ye Li was stunned. "What did you say?" The soldier raised his head and said loudly, "News just came from the front. Prince led a hundred thousand troops down from the north and defeated Xiling's Northern Army. Last night, they reclaimed Xinyang!"
"Xiuyao is back?!"
"Prince is back!"
Ye Li and Feng Zhiyao looked at each other and saw the ecstasy in each other's eyes. Ye Li gathered her thoughts and said loudly, "Return to the city!"
