Inside Qian Zhou City, all of the citizens gathered in one place. Using all of their strength, they shouted as loudly as they could: "We can do it!"
Following this, the people stopped ramming into the gate at the same time and took a few steps back, all of them staring at the gate. With this sort of order, even the soldiers guarding the city could not help but feel shocked.
Among the soldiers, it was unknown who took the lead, but they grabbed their weapons and silently joined the ranks of the citizens. With someone taking the lead, there were immediately others that followed. Not long later, all of the soldiers had joined the citizens. Throwing away their weapons, they looked in the direction of Qian Zhou's imperial palace with disappointment. They then retracted their gazes and looked resolutely at the city gate.
The heavenly voice from outside the city rang out once more; however, it was loudly shouting: "Everyone, back up!"
The people retreated a few dozen steps and looked at the city gate from a great distance. Not long later, they heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the city. Suddenly, a large tremor came from the city gate. Under the impact of the outside force, the gates of Qian Zhou's capital that had been destroyed by the heavens could not withstand the force of the attack, but with a "bang," the city gate was broken through!
After the heaven-shaking sound, there was a deathly silence. The soldiers outside did not enter the city. After breaking through the city gate, they immediately scattered to the sides and stood in two orderly rows. The citizens in the city looked over nervously. After all, Dashun was still an enemy force to them. After breaking through the city, whether they would treat them well or simply slaughter the entire capital was a possibility.
For a while, it was as though everyone was participating in a gamble. Whether they won or lost, it would all be up to fate.
Just as the people were feeling nervous and confused, they saw that behind the soldiers, there were dozens of large pots with steam coming out of them. Some people were stirring with large spoons, and everyone was looking into the city with smiles. The fragrance wafted over, once again assailing everyone's senses.
Qian Li took the initiative to go forward. Standing at the city gate, he loudly said to the citizens inside: "My, Dashun's, promise and sincerity has already been announced to everyone by his Highness Prince Yu, the Ninth Prince. Right now, everyone should stand in line. The elderly and children will stand in front. The women and the sick will stand in the middle. The men will stand in the back. After standing properly, slowly follow me outside. There's porridge, soup, and eggs outside. Everyone has a share. "
Qian Li's words made everyone's eyes shine. Not only did he mention congee and soup, he even mentioned eggs. Even if there were no natural disasters, not everyone could afford to eat eggs!
Under Qian Li's lead, the commoners all came out of the city and began to line up in an orderly manner to receive their food. On the other side, Xuan Tianming and Feng Yu Heng led the army into the city. Nearly 30% of the soldiers were sent to help with the disaster, while the remaining 30% began to fight with the remnants of Qian Zhou's imperial family. Under the command of Prince Lian and General Hei, Prince Lian's one hundred thousand soldiers used their familiarity with the geography to stir up trouble in the Feng Family's lair, forcing the members of the Imperial Family out of the Imperial Palace one by one.
Feng Yu Heng stood in front of the dilapidated Imperial Palace. Looking at the members of the Imperial Family who had been expelled, she shook her head. "That's definitely not all."
Prince Lian nodded, "Of course, there are still some living in the palace. Ya Ya, don't worry. I have already sent people to capture them. I guarantee that not a single one will be left behind."
"Where's their emperor?" Feng Yu Heng glanced at these people. Not a single one of them looked like it. "I heard that Qian Zhou's ruler looks like a weak scholar. Say, where do you think he's hiding?"
Prince Lian reached out and pointed inside the Imperial Palace: "That brat's favorite place is the Phoenix Pavilion in the Imperial Palace. It has four floors and faces East. It just so happens that the sun can be seen through the gap between two snowy mountains. Look, the Phoenix Pavilion is the tallest, but it's also the sturdiest. Even this sort of collapse did not cause it to collapse. Thinking about it, he must be there. "
"He's not running?" Feng Yu Heng asked Prince Lian, "Is Qian Zhou's ruler an idiot? He's not running? "
Prince Lian smiled bitterly, "Where can he run to? The Heavens have collapsed. To the South, there is Dashun, and to the North, there is a natural disaster. The soldiers of a fallen country will flee like stray dogs wherever they go. He has always been a proud person. Based on my understanding of him, at this very moment, he must be sitting in the Phoenix Pavilion waiting for death. "
"That's good. Since he's waiting for death, this imperial daughter will send him on his way."
Seeing Feng Yu Heng rush into the Imperial Palace with a steel sword in hand, her murderous look was not much different from Xuan Tianming's. Prince Lian sighed. It was no loss that they were a couple. To be able to see eye to eye, there would be some similarities. He stomped his foot and shouted: "Wait a moment!" He then rushed forward to stop Feng Yu Heng.
With this stop, before he could say anything else, Feng Yu Heng slapped her forehead, "Right! If you didn't remind me, I would have forgotten. "
Prince Lian thought that she had recalled that Xuan Tianming had gone to lead the disaster relief efforts after defeating the enemy and capturing the Feng family's members. At this moment, he was not with her. This woman finally remembered that she could not enter a dangerous place alone and needed to wait for her husband. Who knew that Feng Yu Heng would turn around and walk toward the members of the imperial family. While walking, she said: "This grandaunt has captured all of these people for the sake of getting revenge for my younger brother's fingers. Come, come, come, I will first cut off your fingers. After that, whether you live or die will be left to his Highness to decide. "
Upon hearing Feng Yu Heng's words, the members of the Feng family's imperial family were all scared witless. To be able to survive the previous generation's battle for the throne, not a single one of them was not a trusted aide of the current ruler. They were used to living like princes, and they were used to being arrogant. The collapse of Qian Zhou caused them to lose their homes, but immediately following this, Dashun's elite soldiers entered the city, causing them to lose their country.
Feng Yu Heng stared at these people; however, the more she looked, the more she felt that something was off. She asked Prince Lian: "Why is it that there isn't a single young person? Is the aging population in Qian Zhou this severe? "
Prince Lian said: "It's possible that the old guys have gone into the palace to discuss matters, while the young ones are all in their manors."
Just after he said this, the soldiers that had gone to the manors of the various princes in the capital returned. Not a single one of them was not a member of the older generation of the imperial family.
Feng Yu Heng immediately understood what was going on and quickly ordered Ban Zou, who had been at her side the entire time: "Pass down the order. Search the entire world for members of Qian Zhou's imperial family that have escaped. Regardless of whether they are male or female, old or young, if they can be captured alive, capture them alive. If they can't be captured alive, kill them. Bring back their heads and pinkies to report back to me."
Ban Zou nodded and left. These words were like a curse to the people of Qian Zhou.
"Princess Ji An, why must you be so ruthless!" Someone loudly shouted: "The children do not have any enmity with you. Why must you be so ruthless?"
Feng Yu Heng's eyes became fierce. Reaching into her sleeve, she pulled out a whip and fiercely whipped it at that person. With a "pa" sound, it tore through his thick winter coat and hit his flesh. She said: "Child? That younger brother of mine is also a child, but you people of Qian Zhou cut off his finger and caused him to suffer. If I had not arrived in time, how could he still be alive? You are allowed to kill people, yet others are not allowed to fight back? Who was it that taught you such a damn principle? "
As she spoke, another "pa" sound came from the whip. A large amount of blood appeared on that person's body. The pain caused his face to twist and turn green.
"Qian Zhou's imperial family cut off my younger brother's finger, so I will cut off all of your fingers. Let him take a look and treat it as a form of education. From this day forward, there will definitely be no mercy."
Once these words were spoken, the whip in her hand was put away. Raising the military knife, she began to cut off the fingers of the imperial family's people one by one. They were all cut off at the base, and fresh blood immediately dyed the land of Qian Zhou red.
What greeted her was Feng Zhao Lian's resentful laughter. The hatred that he had buried deep in his heart for many years finally found a place to vent. Every time that Feng Yu Heng cut him, his heart was filled with joy. His devilish laughter filled Qian Zhou's imperial palace and lingered in the air above the ruins for a long time.
There were not many palaces in the imperial palace that had not collapsed, but the majority of them were already empty. Only the top floor of Phoenix Pavilion still had a single person standing. This person was wearing the emperor's robe, and the golden crown was still intact on his head. Although the emperor's robe was a little disheveled after the sudden collapse of the heavens, it still looked somewhat majestic when worn by this person.
This person had a scholarly appearance, but if one looked carefully, they could see a hidden hostility on his face.
"Feng Zhao Lian, not killing you back then was Our miscalculation." He let out a long sigh, his expression sorrowful. "Qian Zhou will be destroyed; however, I wonder, who will be the last person We will see?"
At this time, at the entrance of the imperial palace, Prince Lian was holding a large knife that he had stolen from a soldier. Only after expending a great deal of effort could he hold the knife. He had originally been following behind Feng Yu Heng. When she cut off a row of fingers, he would cut off a person's head from behind. Don't look at how this Prince Lian was not good at other things. When it came to taking revenge, he was just like Feng Yu Heng. It was just that there was a limit to his strength. There were times when he would not be able to cut through the head, and there would be soldiers that would help him with the knife. Either way, in the end, not a single member of Qian Zhou's imperial family was left alive. They were all cut down by him. When the last one was cut down, he raised his head and saw that Feng Yu Heng had already charged into the imperial palace and was quite far away.
"Hey! Hey, hey! Ya Ya! Wait a moment! " He quickly chased after her. Having completed his mission, he threw away the large knife in his hand. Letting go of the servant, he chased after Feng Yu Heng.
Feng Yu Heng walked very quickly. It was as though she was using her qinggong to rush inside. She chased after Prince Lian until he was half dead. In the end, it was Ban Zou who was truly unable to bear watching and pulled him from the side. Only then did he barely manage to pull him over to Feng Yu Heng.
Prince Lian quickly said: "Wait for your man for a while. You can't go in on your own. How about you bring a few more people. You can use human wave tactics to surround him to death. "
Feng Yu Heng did not speak, as her entire body was filled with anger. The hatred that she had suppressed for Qian Zhou's ruler surged forth and could not be questioned.
Ban Zou asked: "What is it? Is your cousin's martial arts very good? "
Prince Lian snorted coldly, "Either way, he's definitely better than you."
"Really?" Ban Zou, however, did not argue with him for the first time. Instead, he asked very seriously: "How good is he?"
Prince Lian shook his head, "I can't say for sure. I don't know martial arts, but I have heard people say that he is the number one expert in Qian Zhou."
"Number one expert?" Ban Zou's lips curled into a look of battle intent, "Then as you see it, if imperial daughter and I worked together, would that number one expert have a chance of surviving?"
Prince Lian thought for a bit then nodded, "Yes. I reckon that the two of you are not his opponent! "
Finally, Feng Yu Heng stopped. Prince Lian rejoiced and thought that this woman had listened to his advice and wanted to go back to find Xuan Tianming. As a result, when he raised his head, he found that the three were already standing in front of Phoenix Pavilion.
Feng Yu Heng narrowed her eyes. She had heard everything that Prince Lian had just said. At this very moment, however, she could clearly feel a very powerful battle intent coming from inside Phoenix Pavilion.
The battle intent was so strong that even she could not help but feel her heart tremble …
