The whole family travels through the book, the plot is broken but the characters are not

In just over a month, both the King of Beirong and the Meng family suffered heavy losses.

The ministers in the court were either killed or injured, leaving some fence-sitters trembling in fear.

The princes of several princely mansions were almost all killed, and the ninth prince's legitimate son, who was favored by the Meng family, also had his legs broken.

Most of the secret guards of Beirong King Rongfeng and the Meng family's death squad were killed.

If it weren't for Dalin, Qin Gang and others protecting him, King Beirong would have been killed by the Meng family's eccentric killer.

At this time, the Jiyang Army, which had originally been guarding Jiaozhou, began to move.

The Jiyang Army and the Meng Family Army fought a fierce battle at the junction of Jiaozhou and Yongzhou.

The Meng family had no time to fight with the King of Beirong anymore, and submitted eight memorials in a row requesting additional reinforcements.

Qu Yi pretended to speak for the Meng family, but in fact he was trying to sow discord.

The not-so-smart King Beirong believed that in order to resist foreign aggression, he had to first stabilize the country.

On February 20th, Dalin, Wu Ping, Wu Xin and other masters who were "cajoled and deceived" by Qu Yi, joined forces with the secret guards of King Beirong and attacked the Meng family.

Before leaving, Wu Ping and Wu Xin repeatedly requested the King of Beirong to take good care of Wu Jin and Wu Kang, and to appoint them as guards when they returned.

After turning around, a gleam of light flashed in the eyes of the two men.

King Beirong agreed, looked at the people he thought were hostages - Wu Jin, Wu Kang, Fu Gui, Fu Yan and Yang Li, asked the palace maids and guards to keep an eye on them, and left with Qin Gang and Xia Yin.

Queen Meng Rou was uneasy and wanted to question King Beirong, but was stopped by her son.

Only then did Meng Rou realize that she seemed to have fallen into a huge trap.

King Beirong calculated the forces in his hands.

He was somewhat proud of himself. Most of the people who attacked the Meng family this time were killers trained by Qu Yi before, and some were temporarily recruited because he thought they had good skills.

As for whether to confer an official title or not?

Haha, being able to come back alive proves his ability, he doesn’t mind having a few more guards around him.

He had seen the skills of this group of people. Even if he couldn't wipe out the entire Meng family this time, he could at least cause serious damage to the Meng family.

He was also surrounded by a large number of secret guards, as well as Qin Gang and Xia Yin.

No matter how you look at it, he wins.

The Meng family army in Yongzhou cannot hold out for too long. As long as he destroys the Meng family, he will be able to unify all the military forces of Beirong.

In addition to the Yan army that is about to provide assistance and the Jiyang army that has fought with the Meng army, in the eyes of the King of Beirong, they are no big deal.

That night, the Meng family, the largest family in Beirong, was almost wiped out.

The King of Beirong suffered heavy losses. More than half of the more than 300 people who went to the Meng family died, and almost all the remaining people were injured.

While the fight was going on in the front yard, Li Jixin and Lu Changping captured the head of the Meng family and found the correspondence between the Meng family and Dayu in the secret room of the Meng family.

Li Jixin asked Lu Changping to take the evidence and the head of the Meng family away.

Rong Shengwu, the commander of the secret guards of King Beirong, searched everywhere for the head of the Meng family but couldn't find him. He ordered his men to guard the gate of the Meng Mansion and then set fire to all the courtyards of the Meng family.

Among the dozen or so people from Prince Lin's Mansion who were mixed in with the killers, three died in the assassination.

Li Jixin's eyes were red and he wanted to secretly take the body away, but Dalin held him back.

In the dark night, no one noticed that Li Jixin had deliberately let a few members of the Meng family out...

In the palace, Lu Yanyan shook off the guards and palace maids following her and broke into Queen Meng's bedroom.

Meng Qi had no good feelings towards the newly appointed Fuyuan Earl by the King of Beirong.

Lu Yanyan said he was lost and wanted someone to take him back.

Meng Qi sneered. These few uncouth merchants were first brought into the city by the Seventh Prince, and then taken under the wing of the Fourth Prince. They were just fence-sitters, and they even wanted to order the people in the Queen Mother's palace around.

Lu Yanyan didn't seem to notice the sarcasm on Meng Qi's face.

"The palace is too big. If the king hadn't insisted that we stay in the palace, I wouldn't want to stay here."

Meng Qi snorted coldly, "Does Uncle Fuyuan really think he's from an aristocratic family? A few merchants have won the king's favor and risen to prominence, and you're not being treated unfairly?"

"What's wrong with the merchants? We've been to several countries before, but nothing like what we encountered in Beirong. One moment we were supposed to go with the Seventh Prince, and the next we were forced to go to the Fourth Prince's mansion. My family's guards were supposed to only protect me and my brother, but now they're being forced to be assassins. Today, they even went to Meng with a large group of secret guards..."

When Lu Yanyan mentioned the word "Meng", he covered his mouth tightly, his eyes full of fear.

Meng Qi didn't take it seriously at first. He had heard about the fight between the Meng family and the King of Beirong over the past month.

He is the commander of Queen Meng's guards. Queen Meng has been in poor health recently, and he is not in the mood to take care of it.

Anyway, those who died were just minions.

But now seeing Lu Yanyan's terrified face, Meng Qi felt that something was wrong.

"It's so late, what are they doing at the Meng family's house?"

Lu Yanyan shook his head repeatedly: "I don't know, don't ask me, I don't know anything."

Meng Qi grabbed Lu Yanyan's collar and dragged her to Empress Dowager Meng's room.

Because of her illness, Queen Mother Meng was drowsy during the day and only had some energy at night, but she was still groggy.

"Meng Qi, who is he?"

"Your Highness, I am from Xiqi, a merchant named Fu Yan. The King allowed me to enter the palace."

As Lu Yanyan spoke, he moved closer to Queen Meng without leaving a trace. Queen Meng felt refreshed.

"Xiqi merchant? Fu Yan, what are you carrying? It smells good."

Lu Yanyan looked confused, thought for a while, and took out a piece of ointment.

"Empress Dowager, is this the taste you are talking about?"

Meng Qi was worried that it might be something harmful to Queen Meng, so he asked a palace maid to bring it over.

After the palace maid smelled it, she looked normal.

"Your Majesty, this isn't poisonous. I've been using this refreshing ointment for almost ten years with no problems at all."

"Refreshing?"

"Yes, when I was a teenager, I accidentally got poisoned by oleander pollen. I felt drowsy all day long, so our local witch doctor gave me this ointment and told me to carry it with me all the time. After just two or three days, I was back to health. But I loved the smell of it, so I asked the witch doctor about it, and he said it was good for the body, not bad. So he made me some more, and I keep it with me all the time."

Queen Meng wanted to ask more questions, and Meng Qi became anxious.

"My Lady, don't worry about the ointment for now. This person said that a large number of assassins went to the Meng family."

"what?"

Queen Meng slammed the table and stood up.

"What's going on? Tell me clearly!"

Lu Yanyan described the fight between the Meng family and King Beirong in recent days in great detail. When she mentioned that most of the Meng family's secret guards had died long ago and that King Beirong had sent more than 300 experts to the Meng family tonight, Queen Meng fell into her chair.

"Hurry, Meng Qi, take everyone to the Meng family."

"Yes, Queen Mother."

Meng Qi anxiously summoned all the secret guards.

Before leaving, Meng Qi looked at Queen Mother Meng with some worry, and finally drew his sword and pointed it at Lu Yanyan.

Lu Yanyan clumsily hid behind Queen Meng.

"Empress Dowager, I am telling the truth. Please don't kill me."

Empress Dowager Meng looked at Meng Qi sternly.

"Meng Qi, go to the Meng family!"

Meng Qi saw that Fu Yan really had no martial arts skills at all. He gritted his teeth, left two secret guards behind, and left with the rest of the people.

Yang Li and Qin Gang, who were hiding in the dark, quietly put away the drugs and hidden weapons in their hands.

Queen Mother Meng was in a bad mood and kept pacing back and forth.

Lu Yanyan was like an invisible man, not daring to say a word.

Suddenly, Queen Meng thought of the oleander that Lu Yanyan had just mentioned.

"You just said that you were poisoned and that you recovered after using this ointment?"

"Yes, Her Majesty the Queen."

The always simple Queen Mother Meng finally began to think of something.
