After a long time, Yan Jiayu raised his eyes and looked in the direction where Zhou Cangyan disappeared.

The deputy general said anxiously: "We can't leave the city now, General, you should make a decision quickly!"

Yan Jiayu lowered his eyes and sneered, "King Qing, this is a good trick to lure you into a trap."

The only thing he didn't expect was that his princess would save the people of this city.

It seems that I may not lose this game.

Xuan Mei, Cao Jin and others protected these civilians and did not dare to act rashly when they were surrounded.

"Take them all."

He said calmly.

-

Outside the city gate, half the sky was illuminated red by candlelight.

The mighty Dacheng army surrounded the entire Sishui city.

Yan Jiayu stood on the city wall, looking at the Dacheng flag fluttering below, without a trace of panic on his face.

Half a day ago, he was still standing under the city like this.

Now, I have become a beast trapped in a cage.

Haha, very interesting.

"General, everything is ready!"

The deputy general gestured, and Yan Jiayu glanced sideways, and saw the group of people who had just escorted Zhou Cangyan out of the city.

He casually withdrew his gaze and said slowly: "Your good prince abandoned you. He is not as admirable as his princess, what a pity..."

When mentioning Song Lianhe, a hint of regret inadvertently slipped into his words.

Those who are familiar with him know that General Yan of Nanchen has a very high opinion of himself and never takes anyone seriously.

Especially a woman.

Yan Jiayu never does business at a loss. Anyone who plots against him will be skinned alive if he doesn't die!

Zhou Cangyan plotted against him, so let the people of this city be buried with him. With the lives of the people of this city on his shoulders, Zhou Cangyan will never be able to turn things around again!

This can be considered as a great gift from him to King Heng.

It's just a pity that she wasted her life in vain...

As the two armies confronted each other, Yan Jiayu had lost his patience and ordered the first group of hostages to be taken to the top of the city wall.

But after waiting for a while, there was no movement behind him.

Yan Jiayu stood there, silent for a moment, then turned around.

The deputy general had a knife at his neck by those "common people", his mouth had been sealed tightly, and his men were pinned to the ground.

Yan Jiayu raised his eyelids and looked around. His men were all on standby in the city, and only the guards were on the city wall. Looking at those "civilians", he sneered.

Ha, so that’s it.

Zhou Cangyan seemed to have a soul-leaving syndrome at that time, and he didn't care about the enemy or himself. It turned out that the deployment had been made long ago.

The group of people who suddenly rushed out of the alley to protect him were not ordinary people at all, but his people.

It's really unexpected!

Zhou Cangyan's men all crawled out from the pile of dead bodies, and they are all elite.

There is no doubt about this.

Therefore, it was not surprising that his men lost to them, and Yan Jiayu was very calm about it.

"Cough cough..."

There was a cough.

Duan Shanmian slowly walked out from the crowd, with his counselor Zhu Liao beside him.

Yan Jiayu looked at him coldly, his expression remaining indifferent.

"City Lord Duan, this is different from what we said before."

Duan Shanmian took the handkerchief and wiped his lips gently, then said slowly, "You also promised not to hurt the people in my city."

"That was done by that loser Yan Shaji."

"It is not a pity for him to die." He turned sideways and gestured to the people behind him who were disguised as civilians. "As for General Yan, he also did not abide by our agreement."

If it weren't for Zhou Cangyan's men, the people standing here would still be ordinary people.

"I am not talented enough, and I have never done anything for the people of Sishui City, but I am the lord of this city after all, so I have to protect their safety."

Yan Jiayu glanced at him and the people behind him, "Just you guys?"

Duan Shanmian smiled and said, "Yes, we can do it."

Yan Jiayu: "If I give the order, the soldiers in the city will fight to the death. How many people can you protect then?"

"Haha, protect as many as you can. It's just a broken body anyway, so it's not bad to bury it here."

As he spoke, he drew the sword from his waist and said, "But before that, General Yan, don't even think about leaving."

Seeing him like this, Yan Jiayu did not move.

At this time, Cao Jin came closer. As a fellow military general, he still had some admiration for Yan Jiayu.

"His Royal Highness King Qing asked me to bring a few words to General Yan."

Yan Jiayu looked at him.

"His Royal Highness King Qing said that General Yan's purpose of coming here has been achieved, so why both sides suffer losses?"

Yan Jiayu was brave and good at fighting. If he didn't have an older brother, Yan Shaji, who was suppressing him, he would have been second only to the king.

Yan Shaji was greedy and reckless, wanting to gain military merits for himself, and he had snatched credit from Yan Jiayu before.

Yan Jiayu didn't say anything, so he took advantage of his status as the crown prince and the eldest brother and became even more aggressive.

Until Yan Jiayu became disgusted with him.

So, even if the Silver Ring didn't kill him, he wouldn't be able to walk out of here alive.

Yan Jiayu still stood calmly on the city wall. When he heard his words, the corners of his lips slightly raised.

It seemed that killing his brother was as easy for him as killing an insignificant person.

Cao Jin added: "Nanchen's prince is dead. General Yan failed to protect him well. He will be punished when he returns. It is better to accumulate some strength and preserve our power. After all... Nanchen and Dacheng have a long future together."

After a long while, Yan Jiayu said, "Compared to Yan Shaji, this fool, it's a pity for King Qing's princess."

He suddenly chuckled, thinking that if that was the case, the trip was not in vain.

Worth it.

Ow—

There was a wail beneath the sky.

Chunhua flapped her wings desperately, trying not to lose her balance.

It finally propped itself up and flew to the hill.

Chunhua hung her head and finally reached the man's side after jumping with great effort.

The man held the person in his arms, and he didn't know how long he held her like that, holding her hand and resting his cheek on her forehead.

"who are you?"

"Oh, it doesn't matter... No matter who you are, you are my princess, my Lianhe."

"How could I forget you? You went through so much hardship to come back to me... I really deserve to die..."

"Tell me, what should I do to get you back?"

The only response he got was the lonely and cold wind blowing through the mountain stream.

A furry head nudged the back of his hand.

Zhou Cangyan slowly lowered his head, "You miss her too, right?"

"Chirp..."

Chunhua jumped twice on the ground and then lowered her head.

He twitched the corners of his dry lips, "Yes, I miss her so much, I miss her too. I miss her... I want to go to her world and find her."

If there really is such a world, what would it look like?

Will she have friends, relatives or even...a lover there?

Will she be happy?

He slowly closed his eyes and hugged the person in his arms tighter.

“I’m so unwilling…”

He doesn't want to let go!

Even though that was her world, he didn't want to let go!
