As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier crawled into the palace and shouted, "King, the city has been breached. The new emperor of the Yuan Dynasty is coming here."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone became uneasy, and the Third Prince, who was kneeling beside them, also had an ugly expression on his face.

He didn't expect that his uncle would also be defeated. Thinking of this, he looked up at the person standing in a high position, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

After a moment of panic, the Barbarian King suddenly remembered what he had investigated before, and quickly looked at the officials, "Go and bring the people into the palace."

When all the officials heard this, they all looked at the Barbarian King in confusion.

Seeing this, the Barbarian King said coldly: "If you don't bring them here, I will kill all your family members."

When the officials heard this, they were stunned for a moment. One of them reacted and stood up suddenly, "King, what do you mean by this?"

At this point, the Barbarian King was no longer prepared to hide and said, "After you enter the palace today, I will have your family members brought in. They are now outside the palace.

I advise you to bring more people in, otherwise, your families will all die and die together."

After saying this, the Barbarian King waved his hand, and the guards came in with a group of children.

All the children were tied up and their mouths were gagged, but the hearts of the officials instantly fell to the bottom.

The child began to sob when he saw his father or grandfather. The Barbarian King looked at the officials and said coldly, "Are you not going yet?

Do you want to be alone? Start with the two children first?"

After saying this, he picked up a child at random, drew out the guard's sword, and put the sword on the child's neck.

When the child's father saw this, he said anxiously, "Your Majesty, I will bring the people in right away and ask you to release him. Please release him."

The man kowtowed as he spoke, and his head was broken and bleeding, but the Barbarian King did not say anything. At this time, the Third Prince said, "King, one more person means more confidence. Let's go and bring the person in first."

When the Barbarian King heard this, he pushed the child aside.

Upon seeing this, all the officials ran out to look for the people.

Seeing this, other officials also hurried out.

In the entire hall, apart from the children and guards, there was only the Third Prince.

The Barbarian King looked at the Third Prince and said calmly, "Third brother, take your guards to intercept the enemy."

When the Third Prince heard this, he laughed indifferently, "My King, I can't even lift a sword in my current state. Wouldn't it be suicide if I went?"

After saying this, seeing that he was about to get angry, he said, “If the guards follow me, they will die.

If they stay here, at least they can protect you."

When the Barbarian King heard this, his anger instantly dissipated.

After the Third Prince came here, he asked the imperial physician to diagnose him. It was found that his current physical condition was such that he couldn't even lift a sword.

There is no point in sending him out, it is better to keep him in the palace and use him as a handle against me.

After thinking it through, the Barbarian King said nothing more. He looked at the eunuch beside him and said coldly, "Let all the people in the harem come outside the palace."

The eunuch did not dare to disobey and hurried to find the queen.

The people living near the palace gate were in trouble. At this moment, they were being coaxed by the officials to walk into the palace.

Because this place is quite far from the city gate, the people have no idea that the city gate has been lost.

When they heard that the Barbarian King was going to give them rewards, they happily headed towards the palace without any doubts at all.

Those who were a little timid secretly hid themselves.

When the officials saw that the number of people was almost enough, they hurriedly took their people back.

The people who had been hiding breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the officials leave.

Citizen 1: “Why don’t you go?”

Citizen 2: "I am too timid to see the king."

Citizen 3: "Yeah, me too. If I lose my life in the palace for that little reward, it would be a waste."

"Yes, yes, let's just stick to our duties."

·····

The group of people walked home while talking, but they didn't know that they had escaped a disaster because of their cowardice.

As soon as those very happy people arrived outside the palace, they were surrounded by guards.

When they saw such a scene, they were so frightened that they fell to the ground.

"Hahaha, okay, okay."

When all the officials heard this, they bowed quickly.

The Barbarian King looked at the people below with a smile on his face.

With a wave of his hand, all the officials' families and concubines in the harem were brought out.

Then the guards surrounded them all.

After hearing what the third prince said, the Barbarian King decided to transfer all the guards in the palace here.

He thought it through and decided that it would be better to guard him than to guard the city gate. Now that there are so many people, he wants to see whether the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty would care about the people or his life.

He had just sent his confidants out of the palace. If these people did not leave the palace safely, it would prove that the new emperor was bloodthirsty, did not love the people, and did not care about the lives of the people, just to kill himself.

If the people have left the palace safely, then he must have left the palace as well. When the time comes, he will prepare the boat and they will leave together.

The Barbarian King couldn't help laughing when he thought of his arrangements.

The third prince was in the crowd, frowning when he saw the Barbarian King laughing so happily.

He couldn't help but start thinking, if he were the new emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, what would he choose?

At this moment, Xiao Lengyue, whom he was worried about, had already arrived at the gate of the palace.

She looked at the palace that was similar to the one in the capital and frowned slightly. Leng Huaiyi saw it and explained with a cough: "Rumor has it that the previous Barbarian King, after seeing our palace, ordered people to build a similar one when he came back."

When Leng Haoxuan heard this, he blurted out: "Isn't this too shameless?"

After saying that, he looked at Xiao Lengyue, "Xiao Yueyue, is this plagiarism?"

Xiao Lengyue sneered, "Second brother, remember, it's hard to draw the bones of a tiger even if you can only draw its skin. Even if they copied, they only look alike."

After hearing this, Leng Haoxuan thought for a while and then said, "It's hard to draw the bones of a tiger even if you can draw its skin. You can know a person's face but not his heart."

Xiao Lengyue nodded, "Yes, there is another saying that can be used to express it, if you try to draw a tiger, you will end up drawing a dog."

As soon as these words came out, Leng Haoxuan laughed out loud, "You're right."

When Xiao Lengyue heard his laughter, a smile flashed in her eyes.

Looking at the city in front of them, he waved his hand and the team started moving forward.

After Bahri's butler led Xiao Lengyue and the others to the steps outside the main hall, he said tremblingly, "Go up to the main hall."

Xiao Lengyue waved her hand and the person was taken away.

Leng Haohui led his men in front, and when they reached the top, they stopped.
