The sky finally dawned, and the snow seemed to stop. The mountains and peaks were covered with red makeup, which was particularly enchanting.n∈

The sun, like an egg yolk, slowly climbed up the horizon and shone on Liang Hong's face. He stood motionless on a mountain, quietly looking at the mountains in front of him. Behind him were Linghu Chong and others who had been with him. Looking back, there were blood-red colors in the valley, with broken arms and discarded weapons everywhere. The bodies were covered by wind and snow, and they could no longer see clearly what they were like, so they had no way to know the number, and they did not know how many people died.

Further further, in the woods, there were a hundred people tied to the trees. You Xun and several martial arts masters were torturing them one by one.

"Brother Liang, all the people who can be sent out have been sent out. I believe there will be news soon. Xiao Yuer is not old and I believe she can't go far. Don't worry, let's wait patiently." Linghu Chong looked at Liang Hong, knowing that he was very anxious and comforted him without realizing it.

"Yes, Brother Liang, it's cold and cold. Why don't you go and eat something first? You Xun and the others cooked horse meat just now," Lin Pingzhi also stepped forward to persuade.

"I'm not hungry, I'm fine, don't worry," Liang Hong took a deep breath, exhaled a long white breath, then held the tree trunk with his hand and slowly closed his eyes. Xiao Yu'er's smile couldn't help but appear in his mind.

"Dad, you have to come back early-" a childish voice called him, Liang Hong felt sore in his heart, but the corners of his eyes became wet.

"Hahaha, Xiaoyu'er, come on, let me play—" But, in an instant, an unbearable scene emerged in his mind. He thought of Xiaoyu'er being ruined by Zhu Houzhao. In an instant, he couldn't help but roar, "Ah--" He shouted, holding the long sword in his hands, and slashing at a big tree frantically.

"I killed you, I killed you beast, ahhhhh--" Liang Hong completely ran away.

"Brother Liang——" Seeing this situation, Lin Pingzhi was about to speak out to dissuade him, but he didn't expect that his arm had been pulled by Linghu Chong.

"Brother Linghu," Lin Pingzhi looked at Linghu Chong in confusion, but found that Linghu Chong shook his head slightly at him, and then he whispered to him: "Let him stay alone for a while, let's go down and check the situation first."

It turned out that Linghu Chong had learned about Xiao Yu'er from Ren Yingying, so he could understand Liang Hong's mood now. He pulled Lin Pingzhi down the hillside, and then tactfully told Lin Pingzhi that Xiao Yu'er was ruined by Zhu Houzhao.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Lin Pingzhi immediately drew his sword and gritted his teeth and said, "What a beast emperor, I, Lin Pingzhi, swore that if I don't kill him in my lifetime, I, Lin Pingzhi, will not be a human being!"

"Okay, don't follow the crazy. Brother Liang is like this now. We should calm down. Otherwise, something will happen," Linghu Chong said to Lin Pingzhi.

Hearing this, Lin Pingzhi put away his long sword angrily, but after he arrived in the woods, he punched and kicked the captive guards like a madman, and his anger vented on those people.

Lin Pingzhi's actions made Linghu Chong feel helpless. He sighed slightly, and his eyes swept at the assassins in black. He couldn't help frowning and called You Xun over and said, "But what have you been asked about? Who are these men in black?"

"They said they were bandits who cut the path, but they only realized wealth because they saw the princess's carriage," said You Xun.

Hearing this, Linghu Chong shook his head and said, "This is absolutely impossible. I have never seen a bandit dressed in such a uniform manner."

"Then what do you mean?" You Xun looked at Linghu Chong and asked in confusion.

"Who is their leader?" Linghu Chong asked.

"It's this person," You Xun pointed to a scarred face and said to Linghu Chong.

Linghu Chong nodded, walked forward, looked at the man and said, "What's your name?"

"I will not change my name or change my surname. I am Qian Xu!" When Xu Qian signed up for the title, he deliberately raised his voice very high, so that his subordinates could hear it clearly. Don't wait for someone to say something and not let the words go, but they were caught by these thieves.

"Qian Xu, right?" Linghu Chong looked up and down at him, then sneered, and then said to You Xun: "Take off his clothes!"

"You, what do you want to do? I tell you, I can kill my fellow soldiers and not be humiliated! I——"

Before Xu Qian could finish his words, his mouth was already stuffed with a rag. Then You Xun moved quickly, raised his knife and scolded him twice, cutting Xu Qian's clothes, and then tore them off one by one, until Xu Qian's upper body was covered with brilliance and only a pair of shorts were left on his lower body. Then he stopped.

In October, the north wind was howling and the ground was covered with heavy snow. Xu Qian was immediately trembling with cold, and he couldn't help but open his eyes and whimper, and his appearance was obviously expressing protest.

"Don't worry, there is a chance for you to speak," Linghu Chong walked over, picked up the broken clothes scattered on the ground and looked at Xu Qian with some curiosity: "The Lord Qian Village is so generous, and he wears silk and satin close to his body. It seems that you are a bandit, and you are very well-behaved."

When Xu Qianyi heard this, his heart suddenly became sank and couldn't help looking at Linghu Chong with some concern.

It turned out that before Xu Qian set out, because he received Yang Shen's instructions, everyone was specially asked to change their clothes and not have any identity marked on them. The purpose was to prevent others from discovering their identities. However, what Xu Qian did not expect was that the person in front of him was as careful as he could see some flaws in the clothes he was wearing close to his body, which was somewhat unexpected to him.

Linghu Chong ignored Xu Qian, then shouted loudly to the other men in black in the woods: "Listen, whoever wants to tell me your identity can survive. Otherwise, they will strip their clothes and let you freeze to death here. I will do what I say, think about it, and give you a quarter of an hour."

After Linghu Chong finished speaking, he winked at You Xun, the old man and others and said, "Start peeling the clothes and see how long they can last."

"So good," Hearing this, You Xun, the old man and others jumped into the forest, unconsciously, and shouted, constantly pulling the clothes of the men in black. After a while, four or five people were standing naked in the snow, trembling with cold.

You Xun and others did not stop and peeled them all the way down. When they reached a soldier who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, the soldier could not bear it anymore and cried unconsciously, saying, "I said, we are the guards of Datong Prefecture. I, I don't want to die, please let me go, okay?"

Hearing this, Xu Qian sighed in his heart. He knew that the situation was hopeless, but he closed his eyes in despair.

"Tell me, why did you assassinate the princess? Who was instructed?"

After a while, Linghu Chong handed a piece of cooked horse meat to Xu Qian's hands who had already put on his clothes, and looked at him with a smile.

When the matter came to this point, Xu Qian knew that he could not hide it. He immediately took a bite of the horse meat and felt much more comfortable. Then he stammered at Linghu Chong and said, "It was Lord Yang, our leader, who told me to do this. He said that this matter should not be public, and we must do the secret."

"Well? Why did he assassinate the princess?" Linghu Chong asked in confusion.

"Because he is Yang Tinghe's son, and because Yang Tinghe thinks that my daughter is charming the king and causing trouble to the country, she is determined to get rid of her!"

Just when Linghu Chong was asking Xu Qian, an angry voice suddenly sounded behind him. When he turned his head to look, he realized that it was Liang Hong.

At this time, Liang Hong was so angry that he couldn't help but hold the long sword in his hand and rushed towards Xu Qian.

Xu Qian was so scared that he threw down his horse meat and ran back. Linghu Chong also said in surprise: "Brother Liang, no, he hasn't finished speaking yet, and I have agreed to let him go--"

"Don't worry, I won't kill him," Liang Hong took a deep breath, then waved to Xu Qian and said, "Come here, I won't kill you."

Xu Qian was very afraid of Liang Hong. He hesitated for a while before moving timidly to Liang Hong.

Liang Hong looked up and down at him, but then he still raised his sword and slashed at the man.

"Brother Liang!" Now, Linghu Chong was really a little depressed. He rushed over subconsciously and grabbed Liang Hong's wrist. When he looked up, he realized that the man was not dead. He just covered his bloody ears and squatted on the ground screaming.

"Brother Liang, why bother?" Linghu Chong let go of his hand helplessly and sighed.

Liang Hong ignored Linghu Chong, but looked at Xu Qian coldly and said, "Go back and tell Yang Shen that he wants to harm my daughter. I will definitely make this calculation clear with him. Also, tell him again, I will tear him apart one day his father and son and let them wait for me, get out!"

"Yes, yes," Xu Qian covered his ears and fled in a hurry.

"Brother Liang, are you okay?" Linghu Chong looked at Liang Hong and asked with some concern.

"Brother Linghu, do you think there is still any reason in this world?" Liang Hong said in a daze with a long sword dripping with blood, and his voice was low, and he said in pain: "My daughter was ruined, which has made me hate it all the time. I didn't expect that those bastards would kill her, and even arranged a charge, saying that she was charming the lord and chaotic country. Do you think there is still any reason in this? I really hurt, it hurts my bones. Brother Linghu, do you think, should I kill someone? You say!"

"It's time to kill!" Linghu Chong said indignantly.

"It's a pity that there are so many evil people in this world, but I can't kill them all, let alone the entire Ming Dynasty court. How do you think I'm going to kill? Can you really kill the father and son of the Yang family be eliminated? So what if you kill the emperor? Xiao Yu'er has been hurt and killed. In fact, there is no change in everything," Liang Hong sat down on the snow dejectedly, looked up at the high and far sky and said, "I really don't know what to do now. Brother Linghu, what would you do if it were you? Please give me an answer!"
