Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 235

Chapter 235: Who Is It?
The second prince pretended to be stupid and said, “Who are you asking about, General Xie? I came to visit your empire because I heard that there was a lot of food and women here. I just wanted to taste the delicious food and hug the beautiful women. But who knew that General Xie suddenly came without invitation and attacked me without warning?”

Although Xie Yanghui did not have a direct confrontation with the Xiong Nu, he had heard of their cunning and ruthless character. Since the second prince did not answer his questions, Xie Yanghui didn’t want to waste time with him anymore.

He motioned to Ke Xianhao and said, “Xianhao, I will leave him to you.”

Ke Xianhao nodded and said, “All right. Leave this place to me.”

After Ke Xianhao finished speaking, Xie Yanghui looked at the soldiers and said, “Follow me.”

“Yes, Supreme General.” The soldiers said, and half of them followed Xie Yanghui to the imperial palace.

After they left, Ke Xianhao turned to look at the second prince and smiled, “Your Highness, do you want to go by yourself, or do you want the soldiers to carry you like a sack?”

Looking at Ke Xianhao’s smiling face, the second prince trembled for no reason and sighed, “I will walk by myself.”

After saying that, the second prince obediently let the soldiers tie up his limbs. Seeing that they had prepared an iron cage, the second prince pointed at the iron cage and asked in disbelief, “Is this my means of transportation?”

Ke Xianhao raised his eyes slightly and asked, “Are you still not satisfied? Then just walk behind us.”

Before Ke Xianhao could signal the soldiers to tie the second prince behind the horse, the second prince quickly got into the iron cage and even helped the soldiers close the door.

When Ke Xianhao saw this, he smiled and said, “Return to Dali Si.”

When Xie Yanghui and his soldiers arrived at the open space outside Feng Tian Hall, he saw the corpses of the Xiong Nu soldiers lying around, and their blood turned the once magnificent and beautiful place into a mess. Before Xie Yanghui could react, Jian Yi saw him.

Jian Yi flicked off the blood on his sword and came to Xie Yanghui. He stood in front of Xie Yanghui, clasped his fists, and said, “Supreme General, you are here.”

Xie Yanghui looked at Jian Yi’s black mask and saw an image of Denglong carved in the upper right corner. He thought for a moment, recalled the owner of Denglong’s image, and asked, “So you are the commander of the Jin Yi Army?”

Jian Yi nodded and said, “Yes.”

Seeing Xie Yanghui observing him, Jian Yi calmly signaled his subordinates to stop cleaning the corpses and said to Xie Yanghui, “Since the Supreme General is here, then the rest will be left to you. We will take our leave first.”

Before Xie Yanghui could ask why they came without Xuan Ruiquan, Jian Yi calmly said, “Retreat.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Jian Yi and the five hundred soldiers of the Jin Yi Army got on their war horses and left.

A general under Xie Yanghui saw this and asked hesitantly, “Supreme General, this… what should we do now?”

Xie Yanghui looked at the messy field full of corpses and blood and said, “They helped us clean up the enemy, so we should clean up the battlefield. You all go to work now.”

Since he had given the order, the generals and soldiers had no choice but to obey. They clasped their fists and said, “Yes, Supreme General.”

After saying that, all the soldiers dismounted and began to clean up the place.

At the same time, Duan Qinwang was staring at the sky through a small window in the underground prison of Dali Si. When he was looking calmly at the bright sky outside, someone suddenly threw a stone from the small window.

Clack…

The stone rolled on the ground and finally stopped at the wall. Looking at the paper tied to the small stone, Duan Qinwang calmly picked up the stone. After untying the note, he read the contents.

The next second, he crushed the paper and gritted his teeth, “Useless things!”

Since the Xiong Nu failed to kill Emperor Yong’an, Duan Qinwang paced back and forth angrily in his cold cell. All his plans seemed to have failed. He needed to formulate a countermeasure quickly. Otherwise, he would really die in the underground prison of Dali Si.

After thinking for a while, he suddenly stopped and said, “Not right. How did they know about this plan? Since two months ago, the Xiong Nu had secretly sneaked into the imperial capital city, and no one knew about it. To be able to kill thousands of Xiong Nu soldiers, they must have been preparing for a long time.”

He rubbed his fingers slowly, lost in thought. After a moment of silence, his eyes flickered, and he whispered in doubt, “Is there a traitor? Who is it?”

Thinking of his loyal subordinates, Duan Qinwang did not believe that they were spies. He recalled everything that had happened in these seven years since Emperor Yong’an sat on the dragon throne but could not find anyone suspicious.

While he was standing there with his brows furrowed, Duan Qinwang heard footsteps approaching. He came out of his thoughts and turned to look at the people coming. When his eyes fell on the face of the second prince of the Xiong Nu, Duan Qinwang’s heart skipped a beat.

He wanted to ask how he got caught, but he clenched his hands to stop himself. As long as the two of them pretend to be strangers, nobody will know that the crimes placed on him by Emperor Yong’an are true.

“Get inside!” A soldier pushed the second prince into the cell opposite Duan Qinwang and locked the door.

Thud!

Due to the soldier’s roughness, the second prince fell to the hard ground and groaned in pain, “Ugh!”
