Father, I am back to fight!

Chapter 8

"Sister-in-law, you look down on my royal family too harshly. The Xue family is full of loyal and brave men, and every man has sacrificed his life for his country. But have you ever thought about it? Without men in the Xue family, how can my father reward you with official positions and titles?"

"If I give you gold, silver, treasures, and endless wealth and glory, can you, the women of the Xue family, keep them?"

"My father concealed all the achievements of the Xue family because he was actually protecting you!"

"In a month, this prince will travel to the frontier to fight the enemy and establish his achievements. In the future, I will ascend the throne and become emperor. Xue Rongrong will be the empress of Daliang. This is compensation for the loyalty and bravery of the Xue family!"

"If I accidentally die on the battlefield, with the remaining prestige of this prince, I can ensure that the Xue family will be worry-free for a hundred years!"

Qin Yu said coldly.

what!

Xuelong on the side widened his eyes. Could this be the real intention of Emperor Liang in granting the marriage?

Murong Qing's expression kept changing. It was indeed as Qin Yu said. The Xue family had no men, so it was impossible to give the Xue family official positions or titles. Giving the Xue family gold, silver and treasures would only make the Xue family a piece of fat meat, which would make it even more dangerous.

"Hmph! You're the prince. If you die on the battlefield, you can leave behind a good reputation. But my sister will become a widow that no one dares to marry. She will have to live a miserable life. What's the point of such a stable life?"

Murong Qing frowned, his face full of pain.

On the first day of her marriage, before they had even consummated their marriage, her husband was ordered to go to the frontier and never returned.

She has been a widow for three years!

Over the past three years, she was the only one who knew the cold words from others and the sadness in her heart. Thinking that Xue Rongrong was going to repeat her mistakes, Murong Qing felt extremely sad.

"What? If I go to the border, will I have to die? My father is a skilled warrior, and as his son, I will naturally be no less capable!"

"Tell Xue Rongrong that this prince will give her a grand wedding, and in the future, she will definitely become the queen of Daliang!"

Qin Yu said coldly.

Then, he turned around, looked at the soldiers carrying the black iron bow and said, "This black iron bow will stay in the Xue family as a token of love between Xue Rongrong and me!"

"Farewell!"

After saying that, Qin Yu turned around and left, leaving Xuelong and Murong Qing looking at each other in dismay.

"What a pity! I didn't get to see what Xue Rongrong looks like. However, she's a lady from a wealthy family after all, so she shouldn't be bad. If she could have a figure and looks like my sister-in-law, it would be perfect. There's no point thinking about it now. I'll come find her after the hunt, and then I'll know what she looks like."

Qin Yu muttered to himself as he stepped out of the Xue Mansion's gate.

In the imperial study of the palace, Emperor Liang's personal eunuch and chief steward Kou Ying was kneeling on the ground, while Emperor Liang was sitting at the imperial desk reviewing memorials.

"Your Majesty, after my investigation, His Royal Highness Qin Mang did indeed go to the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace. Furthermore, traces of poisoned wine were found in the room where His Royal Highness lived!"

Kou Ying reported the facts truthfully.

"Where's the patrol battalion?"

Emperor Liang did not stop what he was doing, but just asked casually.

"While General Xuelong was unexpectedly away on a mission under His Majesty's order, there were indeed new deployments to the patrol battalion."

When Kou Ying replied, Emperor Liang paused while reviewing the memorials, and a hint of imperial murderous intent appeared on his originally calm face.

"So what about the Yulin Guards?"

Emperor Liang asked coldly.

"On the day of the rebellion, the Imperial Guards' patrol schedule was inexplicably changed, coinciding with the time the rebels entered the palace!"

Kou Ying said in a deep voice.

"The Patrol Battalion and the Imperial Guards, I want to see who has such great abilities!"

Emperor Liang's voice was icy and imposing, and he glared at Kou Ying coldly, "Behead everyone who followed Qin Mang to the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace! Then, thoroughly investigate the Patrol Battalion and the Imperial Guards. Not a single accomplice of this treason will be spared!"

"If any official is involved, there is no need to report to me, just execute him!"

Emperor Liang's gaze suddenly fell on Kou Ying, and Kou Ying instantly felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast.

The Imperial Guards are directly under the imperial power, and the patrol camp is related to the safety of the entire Kyoto!

Someone actually dared to get involved in the Imperial Guards and the Patrol Battalion. This undoubtedly touched the Liang Emperor's reverse scale!

Having served Emperor Liang for many years, Kou Ying knew very well that the calmer Emperor Liang's face was, the stronger the murderous intent in his heart.

Next, Daliang will inevitably experience a bloody storm!

Afterwards, the murderous intent in Emperor Liang's eyes faded, replaced by a more benevolent look. He said in a deep voice, "How's Yu'er? Did you get the black iron bow back?"

"this......"

Kou Ying was speechless and felt that this was a difficult question to answer.

"Well! Tell me!"

Emperor Liang said coldly.

"His Royal Highness competed in archery with Shangguan Tailang. He accurately hit the target five hundred steps away and won back the black iron bow. However... he then went to the Xue residence and gave the black iron bow to Miss Xue as a token of their love."

Kou Ying said with a stiff upper lip.

After hearing this, Emperor Liang's originally serious face was filled with anger: "This bastard, he really can't change his bad habits!"

"Draw one hundred men from the Imperial Guards to serve as guards for the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace! Tell that rebellious son that if he dares to embarrass me during tomorrow's hunt, I'll beat him to death!"

Then, a wicked smile appeared on Emperor Liang's face, and he said, "Go tell Xuelong to bring the black iron bow with him when he goes hunting tomorrow!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Kou Ying looked at Emperor Liang with a wicked smile on his face.
