Meng Xianwei couldn't believe his ears.

Are the rumors spread by the Jiyang Army these past two days true? Is the Meng family gone?

If one of these three people was not his nephew, one was the steward of the Meng family, and the other was a guard who had been in the Meng family for more than ten years although he was not familiar with him, Meng Xianwei would have suspected that they were bribed by the Jiyang Army and tricked him into returning to Xianzhou.

Meng Xianwei walked back and forth in the tent and asked the three men to say it more than ten times, but in the end he still couldn't believe it was true.

He also sent a group of personal guards back to Xianzhou to investigate the situation.

A few days later, the Royal Guards returned.

The gates of Xianzhou were closed, and they could not enter even with the Meng family's token.

They had to spend a lot of money to learn from the soldiers guarding the city that the Meng family had been burned down and the body of Queen Meng was hung on the palace wall.

Meng Xianwei sat on the chair, his face ashen.

"General, let's go back and kill that damn Rong Feng!"

"Yeah, we fought so hard for Beirong, but Rong Feng, that bitch, stabbed us in the back."

"The Northern Rong kings of all generations have always been extremely respectful to the Meng family. How dare Rong Feng do this?"

……

Meng Xianwei's personal guards were all servants of the Meng family. When they heard the news, their reaction was exactly the same as Meng Qi who was beside Queen Mother Meng. They only wanted to kill King Beirong to avenge the Meng family and their families.

Meng Xianwei ignored him and remained in a daze.

Meng Xianwei's nephew Meng Jiacheng knelt down and hugged his thighs.

"Uncle, let's go back and kill that bastard Rong Feng."

"They used more than 300 people to kill the Meng family. We will use 600,000 troops to cut Rong Feng into pieces."

Meng Xianwei roared in agony, "More than three hundred people? The Meng family has over a thousand guards, both light and dark. How could they be killed by just three hundred? How is that even possible?"

"Uncle, over the past month, the Meng family and Rong Feng have been secretly engaged in countless battles, and both sides have suffered heavy losses. That night, the assassins had the help of patrolmen. If it weren't for Meng Yunwu's desperate protection, the housekeeper and I would never have been able to get here..."

"Since you fought privately and lost so many people, why didn't you tell me?"

"Uncle, Grandfather sent you messages several times, but I didn't receive a reply from you."

"Where did I get the message? I didn't get it!"

Both the uncle and nephew burst into tears, but when Meng Jiacheng said he wanted to go back to Xianzhou, Meng Xianwei hesitated.

If he leaves now, the Jiyang army will immediately take over Yongzhou.

Besides, if the Meng family army traveled back and forth and then went back to fight with the King of Beirong, even if they defeated the King of Beirong, they would have consumed a lot of manpower. By then, how could they be a match for the Jiyang army?

Several generals of the Meng family army fell silent.

Meng Yunwu, the guard who escorted Meng Jiacheng and the housekeeper all the way here, was covering his wounds that had not yet healed. His eyes were red and veins were bulging on his forehead.

"General, won't we avenge the Meng family? We're wasting our troops fighting the Northern Rong King, but we're also wasting our troops fighting the Jiyang Army, right?

Think about it, the King of Beirong is now hoping that both we and the Jiyang Army will be defeated, so that he can reap the benefits.

General, fight back to Xianzhou and seize Rongfeng's throne! Even if the Jiyang army attacks in the future, we have the highest and strongest Xianzhou city wall in Beirong as protection, so we can hold out for a while.

The people of Xianzhou, Youzhou, Minzhou and other places are all our backers.

At worst, we can give Mengzhou to Yan State and ask Yan State to send troops to help. The Yan Emperor will understand the principle of "lips and teeth are cold" and will definitely not refuse.

Meng Yunwu's tone was angry, which prompted others to follow suit and persuade him.

Meng Xianwei was struck by the words that the King of Beirong was reaping the benefits.

He and Rong Feng are already in a life-and-death relationship. Their desire for each other's death is stronger than their desire to repel the Jiyang army.

Meng Xianwei closed his eyes in pain, and when he opened them again, he was filled with rage.

"Return to Xianzhou and kill the ruthless Rong Feng!"

Meng Yunwu lowered his head to hide the emotion in his eyes, quickly knelt on the ground, and shouted: "Return to Xianzhou, kill Rong Feng, and support the general as king! Your Majesty, I swear to follow you until death."

The others were stunned for a moment. This guard changed his words too quickly. They couldn't fall behind.

"Return to Xianzhou, kill Rong Feng, and make the general king!"

The loud shouts in the tent made the hearts of the Meng family soldiers outside beat wildly.

Anyone who is not too stupid would have guessed based on the events of the past few days that the Meng family was indeed destroyed by the King of Beirong.

When the big tree of the Meng family fell, half of the sky of Beirong collapsed.

What should the Meng family army, which depends on the Meng family for its survival, do?

Fortunately, these low-level soldiers don’t have to worry about these major matters. They just need to obey the orders of their superiors and have someone pay them.

If General Meng is pushed onto the throne, they will be the king's direct army and their pay will no longer be withheld.

Besides, they would rather fight the Xianzhou defenders who are inferior to them than the brave and cunning Jiyang army.

The soldiers thought about it for a while and figured it out. The morale of the army, which had been worn down by the Jiyang Army recently, began to pick up again.

The next day, the army set out and returned to Xianzhou.

King Rong Feng of Beirong lost a lot of weight because of his worries about his offspring.

It was Qu Yi who persuaded him to send people to Nanlai State to try to find an antidote.

The strange poisons that King Dayulin and Emperor Huiren were infected with were all secret medicines from Nanlai. The relationship between the Meng family and the Kingdom of Nanlai is secret, and the medicine that Meng Rou can get should also be poison from Nanlai.

Rong Feng seemed to have found hope again, and sent several groups of people to Nanlai.

But before they had left for a few days, they came back and said that Meng Xianwei's army was already on its way back.

Rong Feng was anxious and angry, so he had no choice but to order people to leave Beirong from Mengzhou.

Because it was originally agreed that all the property of the Meng family and the private treasury of Queen Mother Meng would be divided among those who rescued the emperor, but in the end only 10% of the Meng family was given out.

Although the guards who participated in the rescue dared not speak out, they all kept it in mind.

Rong Feng wanted to hold Wu Xin responsible for falsely conveying the imperial edict, but was told by the passive and lazy guards that Wu Xin could not be found.

Not only Wu Xin, but the group from Xiqi also left a letter and ran away - Beirong was too dangerous, the King of Beirong was treacherous and threatened them with the Fu brothers, they would not stand for it!

Rong Feng was so angry that he almost exploded.

He wanted to call Dalin and the others ungrateful and ungrateful, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Dalin, Qin Gang and others saved him countless times. He thought that if he kept Fu Gui and Fu Lin in the palace, those people would not be able to see it and would continue to work for him.

But unexpectedly, he lost his popularity.

It was too late for him to regret.

Without Dalin, Qin Gang, Xia Yin and other Xiqi people, Wu Ping must be found. He does not feel safe without the top masters around him.

Fortunately, Wu Ping was found, but the guards only brought back one sentence from Wu Ping - the pie that King Beirong painted was too big for him to digest.

The guard who brought back this sentence had a gloomy face. He agreed with Wu Ping's words too much.

More than half of the imperial guards died. Such a huge sacrifice was made, but in the end they only got twenty or thirty taels of silver. Who could bear this?

Rong Feng was sad about his hidden illness, worried about where to find an expert, worried about Meng Xianwei's army, and being scolded by the ministers in the court for being cruel and ruthless. He was like a frightened bird and simply did not attend the morning court and hid in the harem.

Qu Yi persuaded him to organize troops as soon as possible to fight against the Meng family army, and to recruit guards to defend the palace.

Just like when he was the third prince, Rong Feng left all the matters that needed to be taken care of to Qu Yi.

Qu Yi:?

His second son, oh, now the Prince of Chen, is really a master of foresight...
