The general remained silent at this moment, appreciating the pressure he brought to Shen Yu.

Until Shen Yu couldn't stand this kind of suppressed emotion anymore, she spoke first: "General, I was wrong, please forgive me, I will write down the proportion of explosives right now, please let Brother Qian go, and let us go."

When the general heard this, he immediately became interested and asked curiously: "Miss Shen, if I heard correctly, you are asking me for money."

"Yes, General, I just want to ask you to let Brother Qian go."

As he spoke, Shen Yu used his hands and feet to crawl to the general's feet and kowtowed to him continuously.

"General, Brother Qian knows nothing. Brother Qian is innocent. I only ask the General to let Brother Qian and I go."

When the general heard Shen Yu again asking him to let Shen Yu and Qian Li go, he was so angry that he almost laughed.

He really didn't know where the eldest prince got such a strange woman. Her life was obviously in danger, but she couldn't see the current situation clearly and asked him to let Qian Li go. He really didn't know what kind of love potion his son-in-law gave Shen Yu to make Shen Yu plead for her at all costs.

But no matter what happens today, Shen Yu and Qian Li are destined to die.

"Okay, Miss Shen, I promise you, you write down the explosive ratio first."

"Okay, okay, I'll write it right now."

As he spoke, Shen Yu picked up the paper and pen on the table and started writing.

"No, don't write it."

As soon as Qian Li spoke, someone immediately stopped him, leaving him unable to speak. He could only watch Shen Yu write down the formula for explosives, and a look of despair suddenly appeared in his eyes.

He knew that both he and Shen Yu would die today, but he was really unwilling to accept this. He had obviously been extremely careful, so how could he be discovered by the general?

That would have been fine, but he was also captured by the general's men.

As soon as Shen Yu wrote down the formula for the explosives, someone took it away and handed it to the general.

After reading it, the general immediately ordered people to prepare the explosives according to the instructions on the paper.

"Miss Shen, I hope you didn't lie to me, otherwise I will let you know what it means to be unable to live or die."

Shen Yu was so frightened at this moment that he could not hear what the general said.

After the general took his men away, Shen Yu hurriedly crawled to Qian Li's side.

"Brother Qian, Brother Qian, how are you? Brother Qian, please don't scare Yu'er."

Qian Li was already seriously injured, and after Shen Yu shook him several times, his injuries became even more serious. He couldn't help but spit out blood, which frightened Shen Yu again.

Shen Yu was really at a loss at the moment. Even if she had some little ideas, she was completely vulnerable in front of the absolute strength of the general. How could she be noticed by the general? A single word from the general could decide her life or death.

Qian Li originally wanted to reprimand Shen Yu for handing over the formula for explosives, but when he saw the obvious worry in Shen Yu's eyes, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Forget it, this silly girl, he just wanted to take advantage of her, but he didn't expect Shen Yu to fall in love with him.

If it were in the past, he might have been able to plead with the general and let Shen Yu go.

But it was too late now, his true identity had been discovered. Even though he had tried hard to perform in front of the general over the years and made the general trust him immensely and even marry his daughter to him, any important military affairs would be handed over to him on a daily basis.

But the moment his identity was exposed, all these past affections were destined to be of no use.

After all, the master he was loyal to stood on the opposite side of the general, and he knew that he would never betray his master.

Because the general knew his character well, he did not dissuade him or try to get more information from him. Perhaps this was the last bit of dignity the general left for him.

Thinking of his wife and children at home, Qian Li's face showed a trace of regret, but it was quickly replaced by determination. He was not wrong, and their whole family had been loyal to the Second Prince's mother's family for generations.

The head of the family sent him to the southern border and used his connections to get him into the army of the King of Yue.

Unfortunately, he did not send out the formula for the explosives before he was caught.

He believed that if he could be a step faster and pass the information about the formula of the explosives to the Second Prince, then the Second Prince would have powerful explosives and would definitely win the battle for the throne.

Even though the eldest prince and the third prince have explosives, the second prince also has explosives. Even if he cannot have an absolute advantage, he will not be at a disadvantage.

But now it seems that the second prince is in a very bad situation.

After all, the third prince had already mastered explosives and made weapons with them several months ago.

In the war with Beimo, they defeated the larger force with a smaller one and won the war.

On the eldest prince's side, the general also got the formula for explosives from Shen Yu. It is believed that it won't be long before the skilled craftsmen on the general's side will be able to use explosives to make weapons, which will give the eldest prince more bargaining chips and help him ascend to the throne.

Even though he didn't want to believe it, the facts were there and he had no way to change it. Thinking of this, Qian Li's face turned gray.

"Brother Qian, Brother Qian, how are you? Say something, don't scare Yu'er."

Qian Li ignored Shen Yu. In other words, Qian Li didn't hear what Shen Yu said at all, because his thoughts drifted to what happened after Shen Yu left the grove.

You know, after Shen Yu left, he was also preparing to leave, but he was suddenly surrounded by people, and the person leading them was someone he was familiar with. He knew very well that he could not escape this disaster.

After all, he couldn't even beat the leader, let alone more than a dozen people who were all highly skilled in martial arts.

As expected, he was quickly defeated and brought before the general.

When the general saw him, he beat him up without saying a word.

The general was an excellent martial arts master, and it was no surprise that he was severely injured by the general without any power to resist.

The wound had not been treated in the first place, and now Shen Yu was shaking him around without knowing the severity of the situation. He felt that he might not die from the wound, but might be shaken to death by Shen Yu.

Only then could he bear the pain and remind her: "Yu'er, stop shaking."

Shen Yu was now surrounded by panic, and all he could think about was that he would die soon. He could not hear Qian Li's whisper, which was as soft as a mosquito's. He just kept shaking.

Qian Li spat out another mouthful of blood, and his chest felt much smoother, and he could speak louder, which brought Shen Yu back to consciousness from his panic.

Shen Yu saw that Qian Li's eyes were clear and he burst into tears.

"Brother Qian, what's wrong with you? Are you scaring Yu'er to death? Didn't you say you would protect Yu'er? You wouldn't let Yu'er fall into danger, but now you can't even protect yourself, so how can you fulfill your promise to me?"

"Woooooooo..."

Qian Li saw Shen Yu crying on him with tears and snot. He originally had a trace of pity for Shen Yu in his heart, but now as Shen Yu cried loudly, all the pity disappeared completely, and only disgust was left.
