I just want to die of old age

Xie Wuhen looked at Su Yuzhu lovingly and said softly, "Okay, didn't you say before that you wanted to raise livestock in the city? I have asked the soldiers to start building it."

The smile on Su Yuzhu's face became even brighter. Now, Longhu Mountain has become a paradise on earth.

There are mountains and water, and fruit trees are planted here. Watered by the spring water of Su Yuzhu, the fruits are sweet and delicious.

We also grow grains and vegetables and raise various livestock, so we will never have to worry about food and drink.

"Okay, after I beat these annoying guys away, I will concentrate on studying food."

Su Yuzhu happily began to plan, but after a while, noisy sounds were heard from below the city.

It turned out that Prince Jing's vanguard troops had already arrived and were ready to attack the city.

Xie Wuhen led the soldiers and used catapults to smash down.

Countless rocks rushed towards Prince Jing's army, causing countless casualties.

Countless soldiers came one after another, trying to climb up the city walls.

But he lost his life in front of the powerful bow and crossbow.

The general commanding the front line was so anxious that his face turned red, but he had to obey Prince Jing's orders and could only continue to move forward wave after wave.

The general looked at the crossbows on the city wall, his eyes red with envy and jealousy, he had never seen such well-made weapons.

This crossbow can directly fire dozens of arrows. The arrows fell like rain and directly penetrated the soldiers' bodies.

In desperation, the general ordered the army to return directly along the same route.

He came to the military camp at the foot of Longhu Mountain and knelt down.

"Sir, Xie Wuhen's army is too well-armed. We are no match for them. They are not hurt at all, but we have already suffered heavy casualties."

"How is that possible? How can Xie Wuhen's army equipment compare to ours? It's impossible."

"I saw it with my own eyes. This is a weapon suitable for long-range attacks. Our soldiers were shot and killed before they could even get close to the city wall."

"Xie Wuhen, even if you have fallen to such a state, you can still find a talented person who can make this kind of weapon. Does God bless you?" Prince Jing said unwillingly.

"Keep going, all the soldiers in the front row should bring spears to resist that kind of weapon. As long as you climb up the city wall, you will be rewarded with ten gold coins."

"Yes." After hearing this, the kneeling subordinate felt like he was given an injection of chicken blood.

After a while, a group of desperate soldiers rushed forward again.

However, he did not expect the bow and crossbow to have such strong penetrating power, and in the end he was unable to resist it.

In just a quarter of an hour, the bodies had piled up like a mountain outside the city.

One general’s success is the result of the sacrifices of thousands of soldiers.

Su Yuzhu looked at this scene indifferently and said coldly: "Shen Qianyan, this is the king you value. He doesn't care about human lives and only seeks benefits. You said that in order to achieve the goal, you can do whatever it takes, but the Xie family has already left these royal family struggles. But Prince Jing still refused to let it go, causing the deaths of so many innocent soldiers. Do you really expect him to care about the lives of the people?"

Shen Qianyan looked at the corpses scattered all over the ground and the river of blood below the city. He unconsciously took a few steps back and fell to the ground weakly.

Is this really what he wants?

After a while, Shen Qianyan stood up and asked Xie Wuhen: "Do you want to be the emperor?"

Xie Wuhen said directly with disdain: "I have never thought about becoming an emperor. Being an emperor is indeed high and mighty, and one can only dream of wealth and splendor. However, one has to get up earlier than chickens and sleep later than dogs, and review countless memorials every day. One also has to marry many concubines whom one does not like. It sounds good to say that they are continuing the family line, but in fact, they are just tools to stabilize the regime. If one works hard and does a good job, one is a wise ruler. If one indulges in pleasure, one is a tyrant, and one is not as free as ordinary civilians."

These were the complaints that Xie Wuhen overheard from Su Yuzhu, and he thought they made a lot of sense.

There was one more thing Xie Wuhen didn't say.

What’s even more offensive is that Yuzhu said that the emperor is a high-level gigolo.

After asking, Xie Wuhen found out that a cowherd is also called a male prostitute.

Xie Wuhen's mouth twitched, and then he felt that it made sense.

Shen Qianyan had not expected that Xie Wuhen would be so disdainful of being an emperor, as this is something many people dream of.

Su Yuzhu nodded in agreement: "That's right, being an emperor means being trapped in that city. The world is so big, there are so many beautiful places you haven't visited, and so many things you haven't seen. It's like being trapped in a cage like an animal, so it's no wonder that the emperor becomes more and more perverted after being in office for a long time."

"Well, now that the outcome has been decided, I have secretly sent people to capture Prince Jing's son. He is a hostage. I don't know whether Prince Jing values his son."

Su Yuzhu gave a thumbs up and said softly, "I didn't expect you to act so quickly."

"I was once a soldier, and I still can't bear to see my comrades die in this kind of internal strife. Since it's a fight between me and Prince Jing, let's not involve others."

Shen Qianyan stared blankly for a moment before he said, "In fact, you are a wise candidate for a ruler."

Unfortunately, Xie Wuhen today will never step into that muddy water again.

He already has the lover with whom he will spend his whole life.

After a while, Prince Zhao Ruozai of Prince Jing was captured by Xie Yi. This time he was no longer as arrogant as before, but looked in a miserable state.

Zhao Ruoqiang said, "Xie Wuhen, how dare you arrest me? I am the prince of Jing, a descendant of the emperor."

Xie Wuhen said disdainfully: "Zhao Ruo, you are nothing more than that."

"You just took advantage of his unpreparedness and attacked him secretly. If you dare, let's fight face to face."

"You sound righteous now, but you will never be my opponent in leading troops to fight. You have no strategy in leading troops to fight, and the military camp is so loosely arranged. I only sent 100 elite soldiers, and they easily sneaked into the camp and captured you. You are worse than I thought."

Zhao Ruo spat out a mouthful of blood. He was already feeling depressed and humiliated, and now facing Xie Wuhen's provocation, he became even more furious.

"Xie Wuhen, if you dare to touch me, just wait for my father to bring his army to attack your Dragon and Tiger City."

"I'm afraid your father no longer has the time to care for a useless son like you."

Zhao Ruo was shocked. He suppressed his shock and said calmly, "What do you mean? I am the only son of my father."

Su Yuzhu added fuel to the fire and said, "Now that Su Chenghuan is pregnant and has a grandson, is your son still that important?"

Zhao Ruo suppressed the panic in his heart and said, "It's just an unborn child. We're not sure whether it's a boy or a girl. How can it be compared to me?"

Su Yuzhu smiled and nodded, "That's right, so this Prince Jing is still very important. How about adding a little more ransom?"
