Liu Chengye was stunned at first, then he burst into curses: "Were you sent by that old bastard General Fang? He's so shameless! At such an old age, he's still playing dirty!"
"You dare to scold my father, are you looking for death?" Fang Qingshan jumped in from the window and slapped him on the mouth, causing blood to spurt from his mouth and nose, and several of his teeth fell out.
Liu Chengye looked carefully and found that this was the brother that the young lady had buried before.
It seems that the other party has set a trap for him to fall into!
He wanted to cry but had no tears, blaming himself for being blinded by lust.
He pleaded in a trembling voice, "Please forgive me, both of you! It's not that I don't want to send the people of Eagle Town away, it's just that they simply won't listen to me. I, I've already been sidelined!"
Lin Yiwan sneered, "Are you kidding a three-year-old? You're the official in charge of Old Eagle Town. Who dares to side with you? Tell me, what on earth does Ye Tianqing have against you that makes you do things for him?"
Liu Chengye frowned. He never expected that this young lady actually knew that he obeyed Ye Tianqing.
He subconsciously asked, "Who are you?"
Fang Qingshan thought further ahead. After all, his sister-in-law had entered his courtyard by using the beauty trap.
Any bad rumors that spread in the future will damage her reputation.
After all, she has to return to Beijing!
Thinking of this, he had the idea of hiding her identity first.
He spoke without hesitation: "You don't need to care who she is, you just need to know that I am General Fang. If you refuse to obey my orders today, don't blame me for chopping off your life, root, and making sure you can never be a man again!"
Liu Chengye was so frightened that he suddenly peed when he saw the shining long knife across his waist.
Fang Qingshan's expression suddenly changed. He quickly pulled Lin Yiwan back half a step and said, "Don't look. It's a eyesore!"
Liu Chengye stammered, "Please, General, don't castrate me. If I lose this thing, what fun will I have in the rest of my life?"
Fang Qingshan was so angry that he laughed. This idiot wanted to spend the rest of his life with him? Was he dreaming?
But on the surface, he said sternly: "If you want the rest of your life, then quickly explain, what is your involvement with Ye Tianqing?"
In order to save his life, Liu Chengye shamelessly put forward a condition: "Major General, I want to ask you, if I tell you the truth, can you spare my life?"
Fang Qingshan didn't dare to make the decision on this matter alone. Besides, he didn't know what big mistake Liu Chengye had made.
He replied vaguely: "I can credit you with this achievement, but whether I can save your life or not is not something I can control!"
Liu Chengye's eyes were red and he gritted his teeth: "We're all dead anyway, so just drag some more people with me to be buried with you. I won't say anything else!"
"You!" Fang Qingshan was so angry that he wanted to slap him to death.
Lin Yiwan quickly comforted him, "Don't be upset, brother. He really can't die. This Heartbreak Powder will only make him suffer pain, but it won't take his life!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Chengye had another outburst.
He rolled back and forth on the ground, looking as miserable as he could be.
He couldn't scream out, couldn't seek death, and could only endure the torment.
After a while, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he begged Fang Qingshan in a hoarse voice: "Give me a quick death, isn't it enough for me to have a quick death?"
Fang Qingshan nodded: "Of course, then tell the truth!"
Liu Chengye swallowed hard and said, "The reason I obeyed Ye Tianqing's orders is because I also took advantage of the situation when the Southland Dam was built. I was afraid that the Emperor would bring up the past, so I was trembling with fear all day long and couldn't sleep or eat!"
Lin Yiwan immediately understood what was said. She was sure that Ye Tianqing had promised him that as long as he overthrew the imperial court, he would be able to keep him alive and even allow him to continue to bully others in the South.
No wonder he was unwilling to cooperate with General Fang to vacate Eagle Town. He was surrendering to Ye Tianqing!
She took a deep breath and said, "How much silver do you have now?"
Liu Chengye replied anxiously, "No, not much, about fifty thousand taels, right?"
Lin Yiwan spoke without hesitation: "Take out your fifty thousand taels of silver as severance pay, hand over your official seal and token, and let my brother take people to persuade the people to leave immediately!"
Liu Chengye didn't dare to refuse and could only do as she said.
When the people heard that Official Liu was offering them severance pay to leave, they did not resist much.
Although there were still quite a few explosive thorns, they were suppressed by Fang Qingshan with his iron wrist.
In short, within three hours, the entire Eagle Town was emptied.
General Fang was overjoyed and immediately sent someone to deliver the good news to Zhan Yan.
After both parties finalized the agreement, the floodwaters were released into Eagle Town at dusk.
At this time, Ye Tianqing from the Lingnan City Lord's Mansion also got the news. He was so angry that he smashed everything in the study to pieces.
He has dominated the South for many years, but ever since he met the Zhan Yan couple, he has suffered repeated setbacks. Is it really God's will that he will be killed?
When the strategist came in, he was frightened by Ye Tianqing's murderous intent.
He trembled and shouted, "City Lord, calm down!"
Ye Tianqing turned his head and looked at him: "Fang Rui, do you think this city lord is really going to lose this time?"
Fang Rui shook his head and replied, "Not yet. Although the flood control in Old Eagle Town was successful and it also relieved the Yan army's predicament, Lingnan City is still yours after all. As long as we protect this city well, what can the imperial court do to you?"
Ye Tianqing was not comforted. He faced the reality. He could defend this city for one, two, or even three years, but what about the future?
What will he do after the food is gone?
If he were to fight against Yan's army alone, he might have some chance of winning, but what if General Fang were to join the fight?
He has no way out!
Fang Rui could see his worry and couldn't help but whisper, "City Lord, if you're still worried, let's ask for external help. Don't we still have the King of Li? Promise him great benefits and have him keep the Emperor at bay at the border!"
Ye Tian nodded lightly: "You are right. This city lord will immediately write a letter to him, asking him to start a war on the border as soon as possible, so that Emperor Sheng An will be overwhelmed and forced to withdraw the Fang family army!"
Without further hesitation, he immediately ordered someone to bring a new set of pens and ink.
At this time, Fang Rui spoke again: "City Lord, I have also heard a piece of news. It is said that the reason Liu Chengye was controlled and turned against us was because of the wife of Marquis Zhan Yi. She is said to be intelligent and witty, and is also good at treating poisons. More importantly, Marquis Zhan Yi cherishes her very much!"
Ye Tianqing immediately became interested. He frowned and asked, "Are you saying that we should ask this city lord to send someone to kidnap her?"
Fang Rui nodded quickly. "Yes, as long as we can control her, why worry about Marquis Zhan Yi not surrendering? By then, perhaps the City Lord will have another helper."
Ye Tianqing's expression had indeed improved a lot. Why didn't he think of this method? After all, he was a strategist and his brain was very useful.
