The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth
Chapter 199: Another installment
Duke Ping of Jin hurriedly replied, "No, no, no! I agree! I agree!"
After saying this, he looked up at the sky, fearing that the old immortal would grind him to ashes.
"Yes! That's good as long as you agree! The third condition is that you should compensate me for the losses of Fugui City!"
"Ah? City Lord Zixuan, you still have to compensate Fugui City for its losses?"
Zixuan glared at Duke Ping of Jin again and said, "Of course! It's because you invaded!"
"We have dispatched 200,000 troops from Fugui City. This man has consumed all the food, horses, and supplies!"
"And there are also compensations for the soldiers you killed or injured. Vehicle repair costs, lost wages, compensation for mental distress, and so on."
"Together, you should compensate each of my soldiers from Fugui City with 100 taels of gold!"
Huh? What? One hundred taels of gold per soldier. Two hundred thousand soldiers would cost twenty million taels of gold!
At this time, a bearded general was not happy with this. He rolled his eyes and shouted angrily, "City Lord Zixuan!"
"Are you so poor and desperate that you have no where else to get money that you come here to rob?"
"I, the Great Qin, have no money to give you! You can kill me or chop me up as you please!"
When Duke Ping of Jin saw that it was the general of Qin, he quickly covered his mouth and said, "Ancestor! Are you trying to kill yourself?"
The Qin general was stunned and shouted disdainfully: "King of Jin! You are afraid of me, but not me! Zixuan! I don't have any money, but I have my life!"
Zixuan looked at him coldly: "Alright! Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish! Go to see the King of Hell for this general!"
After saying that, she used her spiritual sense to inform Boss Ji: "Boss Ji! Kill him!"
After notifying the boss, she shouted into the air again: "Master! Kill this Qin general!"
All right! Following the machine boss's response, a blinding white light shot out from space and pierced through General Qin's body.
Then, there were the sounds of "Zizi! Zizi! Zizi! Snap!" After a few snaps, General Qin was instantly burned into a ball of black charcoal by the electric gun.
Ahhhh… Everyone was immediately frightened and in chaos upon seeing this.
The old immortal is really angry. A single lightning bolt can kill someone! So scary! So frightening...
Zixuan looked at everyone with disdain and asked, "Who else disagrees? Come to the front!"
At this time, everyone was trembling with fear. Who would dare to say no?
Duke Ping of Jin trembled and bowed his head, saying, "City Lord Zixuan."
"I'd like to ask if it's possible to pay in installments like my father, Duke Dao, did back then?"
Zixuan thought about it and agreed. It was probably impossible for them to come up with such a huge amount of gold even if they were beaten to death.
She nodded and said, "Okay! I'll allow you to pay in installments for the sake of your father, Duke Dao of Jin."
"Then this general orders you to pay back the full amount of compensation within twenty years. If you fail to do so within twenty years, you must take it back from the State of Jin!"
Ah! Duke Ping of Jin felt a sharp pain in his heart.
The Great Jin Kingdom was made big and strong by our ancestors after so many years of hard work, and we must not let it be destroyed in our own hands.
He quickly agreed: "Okay! City Lord Zixuan, let's set a deadline of twenty years. We will definitely pay it back within twenty years!"
The generals of the various vassal states also echoed in unison: "Don't worry, City Lord Zixuan! We will definitely return it, we will definitely return it..."
Okay! Zixuan reached out from the space and took out a stack of contracts and seals that the boss had just written for him.
"Since everyone agrees, let's sign and seal it!"
He waved his hand and several soldiers distributed the peace treaty to them.
No one dared to read the contents of the contract, and they just signed and sealed it hastily.
Zixuan kept one copy and ordered them to take one each: "Generals! Take it back and show it to your king!"
"If anyone dares not to admit it, I will immediately send troops to destroy them!"
"Okay! Now you can pack up and go back!"
Yes! Yes! Yes! Everyone stood up, supporting each other, and led their troops towards the State of Jin, covered in dust.
Zixuan ordered his men to count the troops and found that hundreds of them were killed or injured. He felt very upset.
Yan Ying and Sima Rangchu were shocked after checking the casualties of the troops.
Of the 200,000 soldiers he brought with him, only more than 80,000 are left.
Fortunately, we won the battle. If we had been defeated, how would we explain to our fellow villagers when we returned?
After Zixu regained consciousness, he asked Zixuan, "Mother, what happened to me?"
Zixuan looked at his son with a smile: "Xu'er, maybe you are too tired from fighting for days and fell asleep."
"By the way, Xu'er, now that the allied forces of the princes have been defeated and surrendered, will you and mother return to Fugui City? Or will you return to Lu State?"
Zixu thought for a moment and said, "Mother, I'd better go back to Lu."
"Ye'er is still in Lu. She's been pregnant for over nine months and is about to give birth!"
Zixuan was very happy when he heard that Ye'er was pregnant and about to give birth: "Xu'er, why didn't you tell your mother earlier that Ye'er was pregnant?"
Zixu said with a smile: "Mother, the reason I didn't tell you is because I was afraid you would worry."
"Secondly, I wanted to surprise my mother with a surprise attack, hehe."
"By the way, mother, you have been prepared for the coalition's attack tonight. Did you receive the letter your son sent you?"
Zixuan shook his head: "No, mother didn't receive any news."
Huh? Zixu was surprised. Why didn't Erxiao deliver the message? Did he run away because he was afraid of being caught?
No, judging by Erxiao's loyalty to me, he would never do such a disloyal and unjust thing.
It must be that Erxiao was caught by the coalition forces and something happened. Thinking of this, he lowered his head sadly.
As the mother and daughter were talking, a military officer came to report that Shusun Bao and Di Shimi wanted to see them.
When Zixu heard that the two people had arrived, he calmed down again.
He raised his head and said, "Mother, they must be here to see me."
Zixuan nodded and immediately ordered someone to invite them in.
After the two of them entered the tent and saw Zixu, they finally felt relieved.
After greeting each other, Shusun Bao said, "Sir, I'm so sorry. We watched you get arrested and were powerless to stop you. I'm so ashamed, so ashamed!"
Zixu waved his hand and said, "Wufang, I'm safe and sound. Don't blame yourselves!"
Zixuan looked at the two of them with contempt, snorted coldly, and said nothing.
The two of them coughed awkwardly and said, "Thank you for your understanding, sir!"
"By the way, sir, our army will be withdrawing back to the country soon. Do you want to go back with us or stay here?"
"Of course I'm going back with you. When are we leaving?"
They both answered in unison: "Right away!"
After sending their son away, everyone returned to the capital with heavy hearts after Yan Ying arranged the affairs of Pingyin City.
Duke Jing of Qi had already received a report that Zixuan had defeated the coalition forces of the princes and forced them to surrender. He was so excited that he did not sleep all night.
The ministers were also very happy when they heard the news.
So they surrounded Duke Jing of Qi and lined the streets to welcome him ten miles outside the city.
Half an hour later, everyone saw Zixuan's army from afar.
When Duke Jing of Qi saw the team, he jumped for joy. His mother told him.
Sister Xuan is not only a great contributor to the salvation of Qi, but also the savior of the Jiang royal family. This time, mother wants to thank Sister Xuan personally.
