Da Xitai looked straight at Sheng Changan, "You dare to sow discord here when you are about to die."

Sheng Changan did not move, and spoke sharply, "You slaughtered Lanyang first, then attacked Guangping. In order to survive, you ran back directly on the corpses of your own people."

"What do you think would happen if other people or your opponents knew about this? It's fine that you're so cruel and merciless, but you only treat us. Then your people will still say you're brave and resourceful."

"But you still have your men. Do you think they are still willing to work for you?"

Da Xitai stopped in his tracks, but his face remained calm. "I am now the king of the Xianbei. They died to protect me. When I return, I will naturally confer upon them the title of warriors."

"And in order to prevent you Han people from speaking nonsense, I can only rest assured that you will never be able to speak again."

Sheng Changan's mouth curled up into a mocking smile. "You are indeed as stupid as a pig. You came here from afar. Someone must have said something to you. That's why you came here so soon after taking the throne."

"The person you trust so much who is still in Xianbei might have already become king again, and you will die on the way back to Xianbei."

Da Xitai's eyes narrowed. Although he was indeed very angry about her insulting words, it was not his idea to come here in the first place. Thinking of this, he began to hesitate.

A soldier standing on his right suddenly became furious and said, "Don't try to sow discord." He took out a bow and arrow and shot directly at Sheng Chang'an.

County Magistrate Wu's face suddenly changed. He stepped forward and pulled Sheng Chang'an away. The arrow shot straight at the city wall behind them, but did not leave any mark and fell directly.

Sheng Changan's eyes changed slightly. Although he was a little scared, he became more confident in his guess. "Are you going to kill someone to silence them? It seems that the person next to you is already someone else's confidant."

Da Xitai's eyes fell on the soldier who had just shot the arrow, without any warmth. Although Sheng Changan's words might not be credible, his unauthorized actions did make him suspicious.

The soldier knelt and bowed his head. "My king, I will always be loyal to you. I am willing to swear an oath."

Da Xitai didn't move. He had given him his name because he had once saved his life. He rubbed the handle of his knife lightly with his hand, and after a long time he helped him up. "I believe you."

Sheng Changan's face changed as she watched their actions. She could see that Da Xitai did have doubts, but obviously, this little doubt would not make him let go now.

Sure enough, the next moment he raised his head and said, "Stop talking nonsense and get to work." As he said that, he also drew his knife.

Sheng Changan took a deep breath. Now he could only gamble whether he could endure this breath. "Try to avoid them, if..."

She closed her eyes and slowly opened them. "If you really can't avoid it, don't hold back."

"Sir," County Magistrate Wu stepped forward, "the battle is imminent, why don't you step back a few steps?"

Sheng Changan touched the arrow in his sleeve and took a few steps forward. "It's okay, I'll wait here." He then said to Da Xitai, "You are indeed a person with a strong brain but simple limbs. It's not unfair for someone like you to die."

Da Xitai's chest rose and fell slightly, his hand tightly gripping the hilt of his sword, his eyes flashing with anger as he roared, "Destroy the city."

Sheng Changan placed her fingers on the wall, her fingertips turning slightly white. Could it be that she had guessed wrong?

But the next second, Da Xitai used the force and the tip of the knife went straight towards Sheng Changan. At this moment, she looked at the tip of the knife getting closer and closer, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
