Wanyan Hongze had expected Du Lu to have such a reaction, so he was not surprised and remained calm:

“If this move can bring peace to the world and people can live and work in peace, why don’t we work hard?

In my opinion, the three generations of the Du family have been loyal to the imperial court, and their purpose is to make the people of the world happy and healthy, right?"

After Wanyan Hongze finished speaking, he looked at Du Lu with a smile.

It is undeniable that he still feels a little guilty at this moment.

No matter what, unifying the world is not an easy task.

"So what? You want me, Du Lu, to sell out my country for personal gain and discredit our Du family's ancestors. You might as well just stab me to death with a sword!"

As expected, Trudeau is loyal to the end.

Ever since he was born, he didn't know how to write the word "treason".

"If General Du insists on saying so, then can it be understood that the dog emperor gave Ling Qianjin to me because you, Daye, are afraid of us, Loulan, and therefore are seeking peace?"

Wanyan Hongze felt helpless when he said this.

Truman's blind loyalty really surprised him.

He even felt a sense of inexplicable loss.

But since he was here, he might as well make the best of it. Wanyan Hongze could only tell everyone his purpose.

"If it is true as General Du just said, that I, Wanyan Hongze, want to unify the world, which is against the will of heaven, then that dog emperor Zhu Yunhao is cruel and immoral, and he deserves death, right?"

"I am only acting on behalf of Heaven. If General Du cannot join me, I will not force him.

The carriage is ready outside, please take care, General Du!"

Wanyan Hongze gave a helpless smile and quickly turned around to leave, but was stopped by Du Lu.

"Wait a minute! Please let me go back and think about it carefully..."

Regardless of the pain in his body, Du Lu quickly jumped off the bed, grabbed Wanyan Hongze's arm, and spoke in panic.

Wanyan Hongze nodded with a smile and said calmly:

"Okay. I'll wait for your reply within three days. But I remind you that the dog emperor has already given you the last meal before execution. As for whether you can survive three days, I can't guarantee it. Goodbye!"

Then, Wanyan Hongze quickly turned around and left.

In just a moment, Du Lu also got into the carriage and returned home.

"Drive! Drive!"

"Xu~"

The carriage was bumpy on the way back to the city. Du Lu felt suddenly empty inside the car and his right eyelid kept twitching.

While I was distracted, the carriage suddenly stopped with a creaking sound.

A violent forced stop operation almost threw Du Lu out of the window, which frightened him so much that his nerves were tense and his face turned pale.

I saw a dozen men in black quickly standing in a row in front of the carriage, with only two eyes showing.

But it can also be seen that they are not good people, and each of them has a fierce look on his face.

"Protect General Du!"

Someone shouted, and several Loulan guards dressed as ordinary people quickly gathered together and protected Du Lu in the middle.

"The Queen Mother has ordered that no one should be spared from execution!"

At the command given by the leading man in black, the rest of his men quickly drew their swords and rushed forward, ready to kill Du Lu.

Upon learning that the men in black were sent by Queen Mother Qiao to kill him, Du Lu became so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick, and he hated Queen Mother Qiao in his heart.

He angrily snatched the machete from a Loulan guard and quickly stepped forward to start a fight.

"I'm going to fight you, old witch!"

Du Lu roared wildly and rushed towards the man in black with his teeth bared.

Soon, the scene fell into chaos.

Du Lu was filled with humiliation, and when he caught the man in black, he ignored the severe pain in his body and just hacked and killed him desperately, even disregarding his own life.

Although the men in black were all Queen Mother Qiao's shadow guards, they were certainly no match for Du Lu.

However, when Du Lu thought that he and the Loulan guards had worked together to wipe out all the men in black, a man who had been lying on the ground suddenly stabbed him from behind while Du Lu was not paying attention.

"what!"

"General Du!"

With a scream of "Ah", Du Lu spurted out blood, slowly fell forward, his eyes filled with fear.

He fell to the ground before he even had time to call for help.

"Damn it!"

"General Du! Hold on! Someone come quickly!"

A Loulan guard quickly drew his sword and stabbed the man in black to death, then squatted down to check Du Lu's wound, looking extremely panicked.

"I can't do it anymore... Tell your king to... treat my Wan'er well..."

Du Lu used up his last bit of strength, and after he finished speaking with great effort, he died, and his head drooped naturally.

"General Du!"

The leading Loulan guard was so terrified that he couldn't help but shout and shook Du Lu's body hard.

But Dulu no longer breathed, and the pain quickly solidified.

The few of them simply dug a pit, dealt with Du Lu's body, and then went back to report to Wanyan Hongze.

After hearing the news that Du Lu was assassinated, Wanyan Hongze and Abao quickly left Daye and returned to Loulan.

……

Loulan, Tianze Palace

"What? My father is dead? Impossible, absolutely impossible.

My father's martial arts skills are so high, how could he be stabbed to death?"

"Wanyan Hongze, you must be lying to me, right?

I don’t believe it, I don’t believe my father is gone just like that…”

When she heard that her father had passed away and that more than a hundred people in the Du family had been exiled to the frontier, Du Qingwan burst into tears.

She couldn't believe her eyes. It was like a bolt from the blue, and her mind went blank.

"sorry!"

Wanyan Hongze was silent for a while, and finally squeezed out three words helplessly.

The cold eyes revealed a hint of sadness, a faint one.

Du Qingwan never dared to hope that Wanyan Hongze, the king of Loulan, would actually apologize to her.

“Never mind, it’s not your fault. You did the best you could.

Anyway, Wanyan Hongze, thank you anyway!"

Du Qingwan took a deep breath and her voice trembled violently.

Her petite and thin body was trembling, looking so weak.

"Um... Du Qingwan, if you want to cry, I can lend you my shoulder."

Wanyan Hongze was not good at coaxing people. After organizing his brain for a long time, he finally expressed his meaning clearly.

Du Qingwan was stunned when she heard this: "Ah?"

Seeing Du Qingwan's silly look, Wanyan Hongze suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He smiled unnaturally and pressed Du Qingwan's head into his arms.

"What? Don't you understand? I said I can lend you my shoulder for free!"

Du Qingwan was originally extremely sad, but after Wanyan Hongze's move, she suddenly felt embarrassed.

After a while, she finally reacted:

"Hey, Wanyan Hongze, are you taking advantage of someone's misfortune?

I am warning you, I am not someone you can easily bully!"

While speaking, Du Qingwan suddenly pushed Wanyan Hongze away, quickly raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face, feeling extremely embarrassed.

"You talk like I'm a bad person! How boring!"

Wanyan Hongze didn't force it anymore. He spread his hands helplessly, then turned around and prepared to leave.

Suddenly he remembered something and stopped again:

"By the way, the enthronement ceremony will be held in three days. You should prepare well and don't embarrass me."

After Chen Leng finished speaking, Wanyan Hongze quickly left Tianze Palace.

Hearing this, Du Qingwan couldn't help but be stunned: "Ah?"

"Hey! Wanyan Hongze, when did I agree to marry you? You haven't even rescued my father! Hey..."

By the time Du Qingwan reacted and chased after him, Wanyan Hongze had already disappeared without a trace.
