I turned pale with fright. Prince Yue looked at me and slowly said, "Today, the world belongs to the Da Qi. The Eight Tribes in the North are united, and the fishermen in the Southeast are all subservient. Even Guan Zhongsheng Village, which is hiding a traitor, is still a vassal of the Da Qi Imperial Court. But I … "
/p
Fortunately, I picked up where he left off and said, "But His Highness was stationed at the border and made a name for himself by killing his way to the southwest."
/p
I don't know what he thought of, but he smiled bitterly.
/p
Looking at his smile, my heart was also bitter. "Then Your Highness's enemy is a non-human?"
/p
A slow but sharp sound reverberated through the valley. It sounded like a dog's bark, but also like a rooster's cry. Both sides were similar, but at the same time, they were not. The more I listened, the more I felt that something was wrong. The more I listened, the more frightened I felt.
/p
Prince Yue said, "Not good." He picked me up by the waist and hurried forward. I was no longer surprised by Prince Yue's behavior of carrying me, but seeing the scenery around us rushing back, I was a little surprised. I glanced down at his body.
/p
Good heavens, he's running with his two legs.
/p
I hugged his neck even tighter, afraid that I would fall down halfway.
/p
Prince Yue's footsteps quickened.
/p
King Yue only needed a moment to complete the task of climbing the mountain. The place where he put me down was halfway up the mountain. I looked around. Sure enough, as he had said, it was surrounded by mountains on all sides, and in the middle was a Yin (harmonious) river. This layout was very similar to the rumored layout of the Guanzhong Sacred Village.
/p
Prince Yue said, "Let's go."
/p
I asked him, "How do we go?" “/p
/p
He didn't waste time talking nonsense, and exerted more strength on my waist. Like a roc spreading its wings, he flew high into the air. Then, he slowly landed on the ground. The process was extremely flashy. I landed on the edge of the Yin (Harmony) River. The soil was soft and slippery. When I stepped on the ground, I almost sprained my ankle.
/p
I glared at him, but he wasn't looking at me. He was staring at the center of the pool. I had no choice but to postpone my plans to settle the score and deal with the problem in front of me first.
/p
I followed his gaze and saw two black dots floating on the surface of the lake. I felt something was wrong, so I squinted to take a closer look. At first glance, I paled in fright. Those weren't two black dots. They were the vines tied to the wooden stake.
/p
I shouted, "Your Highness!" Save them!
/p
Prince Yue grabbed my arm tightly. "Something must have been added to the water. How are you going to save him?"
/p
I didn't have time to retort, when I heard an old and hoarse voice interject, "Prince Yue is still the most knowledgeable. This old one admires him very much. Chugging Pearl girl, why haven't you learned a bit from your husband?"
/p
Grandmother Tang appeared from an unknown corner, dragging her heavy and cumbersome ceremonial robes. Even after escaping for so long, her hair and face were not disheveled. Her appearance was the same as before. Even the hem of her robes wasn't wrinkled or muddy. It could be seen that she was quite a ruthless person.
/p
Prince Yue said, "Old Madam Tang, why are you still stubbornly resisting? Now that your scheme has been broken, your army has been defeated. If you come back with me, Imperial Father may be lenient on account of Duke Tang and spare your life. That way, you can enjoy your old age in peace."
/p
Grandmother Tang's sinister eyes shot towards me. "If it weren't for your imperial family, how could I have fallen to this state?"
/p
Prince Yue said, "The imperial family has never forced you or Guan Zhongsheng Village."
/p
"Hahahaha, Prince Yue's words are so magnanimous that even you believe them yourself." Grandmother Tang's voice became sharper and sharper. Her face became more and more distorted. She was like a dried branch that hadn't drunk water for a hundred years. She bared her fangs and brandished her claws as she twisted her body. "If the imperial family didn't force me, why would they take Sky Xuan Rehmannia Glutinosa and Tang Chuizhu from my hands?"
/p
When my name was called, my heart couldn't help but panic. Looking at the old woman's crazy state, I felt that it was better to stay away from her in awe.
/p
Prince Yue took a step forward. His tall body was just enough to act as my shield. He said, "Sky Xuan Rehmannia Glutinosa is a tribute offered by the Southeast fishermen to the Emperor. It was your Tang family's greed and should be punished. As for Chuizhu, it was the Emperor who asked for your Tang family's opinion. If Grandmother Tang says that the imperial court forced you and forced you to rebel, this is absolutely unacceptable."
/p
"How could the imperial court not know how Sky Xuan Rehmannia Glutinosa fell from Guan Zhongsheng Village into the hands of the Southeast fishermen?" Old Madam Tang sneered, "But the Imperial Court still pretends not to know. They've clearly found these two pearls and are about to send them to the capital. They clearly know that these two pearls are the lifeline treasures of my Guanzhong Holy Village and can be returned to me in perfect condition! However, after a turn of events, it became a tribute and became the Emperor's rightful possession. Humph, humph. "
/p
Prince Yue replied, "Under the heavens, all lands belong to the Emperor."
/p
"No one on the shores of the earth is a subject of the Emperor." Old Madam Tang said, "But does His Majesty treat us as his subjects? No! He is just greedy for the secret method of immortality that has been passed down from generation to generation in my clan, greedy for his great dream of immortality. If I don't hold back against this kind of emperor, won't I be sucked clean of all my marrow? "
/p
Prince Yue sighed and said, "I only ask Grandmother Tang, is the Sky Xuan Rehmannia Glutinosa that you are so concerned about, all for the sake of the people of Guan Zhongsheng Village?"
/p
I hurriedly looked at Grandmother Tang like I was watching a play. Sure enough, I saw that her face was clouded and she didn't say a word. My heart suddenly calmed down. It was like the pot calling the kettle black.
/p
Prince Yue struck while the iron was hot and continued, "Grandmother Tang, you should let the Seventh Prince go. This way, your grandson, Tang Min, will also have a way to live."
/p
"Why would I want Tang Min to live?" Old Madam Tang turned around and grabbed at the two wooden stakes. The wooden stakes swayed like they were sitting on a boat as they charged towards the shore. She then made a flattening gesture, and the two wooden stakes were stopped less than thirty feet from the shore.
/p
The Seventh Prince was tied to the stake in front and Tang Min was tied to the stake in the back. Both of them were soaked like drowned rats. The vines tightly bound the two of them and twisted their clothes in two or three places. The injuries were so deep that the bones could be seen. It was very miserable.
/p
I could see the disdain in Old Madam Tang's eyes. She leisurely said, "If it wasn't for Tang Min, this traitorous thing, deceiving me, how could your Imperial Court have seen the flaw in my scheme?"
/p
"There's always a flaw in a plan," Prince Yue threw his spear in front of him and assumed a battle stance, "Grandmother Tang, please forgive me."
/p
Grandmother Tang's withered hand reached out and the bound Tang Min instantly opened his eyes. The shackle-like vines slowly retreated from his body. His whole body seemed to be carried by an invisible sling as he slid over the water.
/p
"Seeing that Prince Yue is the son-in-law of my Guan Zhongsheng Village, this old woman will remind you again. Although Min-ge's body can't compare to the Saintess', it was personally refined by me! You can be injured, but you can't die! Prince Yue, have you ever met such an opponent? "
/p
You can be injured, but you can't die.
/p
No wonder Tang Min said he was a monster. Things that go against the natural order can only be monsters.
/p
Prince Yue took the spear. Although Tang Min was controlled like a puppet, he was unarmed. Grandmother Tang didn't seem to have found a weapon for him.
/p
My heart trembled and I hurriedly said to Prince Yue, "Prince, you can't be fooled by this old woman! If you kill Tang Min, the next one will be the Seventh Prince. She's using the Seventh Prince to set a trap for you! "
/p
Grandmother Tang glared at me fiercely, but the words she said were full of praise, "I haven't seen you for a few days, but you've become smarter."
/p
I also poked my head out and stared back at her fearlessly. This old woman's mind was very vicious. She didn't seem to have a weapon in her hand, but she didn't hold back and used the Seventh Prince as her weapon. The Seventh Prince also didn't have a weapon in his hand. She wasn't afraid. Her grandson, that unkillable Tang Min, was the Seventh Prince's weapon.
/p
If he couldn't get past the Tang Min, she would have a complete victory. If he could get past the Tang Min, she would use the Seventh Prince as her next obstacle. She would use the Seventh Prince as her next obstacle. She would use the brotherhood between the ruler and his vassal. Prince Yue would be in a dilemma. How could he get past her?
/p
Ruthless. She was really a cunning fox.
/p
I couldn't help but worry for my husband. "Prince …"
/p
Prince Yue said to me in a low voice, "The Seventh Prince must be saved. It seems that the Tang Min must also be saved."
/p
My panicked heart calmed down. I guessed that the Prince had already made up his mind. I retreated to the side, away from the main battlefield, and didn't say anything else.
/p
Prince Yue casually threw the spear that he had specially brought out into the pond without any heartache. Then, he untied something from his belt. I naively thought that it was a belt, but when I looked closely, I discovered that it was a long, dark golden whip.
/p
"You have a lot of tricks," Old Madam Tang sneered. "It seems that my Chuizhu girl's bed life is very happy."
/p
Even at this time, she could still say something like that. I really admire this old fox.
/p
Prince Yue didn't move. He lashed the whip and rushed towards Tang Min. Old Madam Tang's withered hand moved and pulled Tang Min towards Prince Yue.
/p
The golden whip flew towards the sky and smashed towards Tang Min's face. Tang Min didn't dodge. He raised his hand and wanted to catch this fierce attack. I saw Prince Yue's body move. It was just a feint, but his speed was a hundred times faster than before. In an instant, he was behind Tang Min. The whip also changed its direction. It didn't have the power to attack, only the power to bind.
/p
I immediately understood why Prince Yue untied the whip from his belt. Since Tang Min couldn't be killed, it was best to make him stay obediently and not get in the way. Besides dying, he could also bind him.
/p
Good plan. As expected of my husband.
/p
Far away from the battlefield, I was dancing with joy. But the Prince of Yue took the time to glance at me, and shouted at me in panic: "Chuang Zhu, dodge!"
