Transmigrating to a Female-Dominated World: Pampering My Little Husband
Chapter 499 The Sun is Shining
Han Zixuan's cloak was lifted by a corner by the wind outside the palace, revealing a profile with cold, hard lines like a knife.
She looked down at the group of people crawling at her feet, her gaze like a frozen pool, listening to their humble pleas, without a single smile on her lips.
"Begging for mercy?" she spoke, her voice low but carrying a metallic chill that drowned out all the cries and wails. "On the day the war began, you never imagined this day would come."
The crowd's cries paused, and the king suddenly looked up, a glimmer of hope flashing in his eyes, only to be utterly crushed by Han Zixuan's next words.
"The victor is king, the loser is villain; it has always been so." Han Zixuan's gaze swept over every terrified face, without a trace of pity. "If you lose, you must accept it. The price is your lives."
After she finished speaking, she didn't look at the group of people who had instantly turned pale. She simply turned to the side and raised her hand to the guards behind her. Her movements were swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
"The king, princes, princesses, officials of the third rank and above, all registered nobles—" Her voice was calm to the point of cruelty, "not one will be spared."
Destroying a country simply means destroying its entire political system; as for the common people, Han Zixuan isn't that bloodthirsty and cruel.
The Queen of Dongsang could no longer hold her cane, and it fell to the ground with a thud. Her body trembled uncontrollably. Fortunately, there were many servants behind her supporting her, otherwise, she feared that the fall would have shattered her old bones.
He muttered to himself, "It's over...it's all over..."
Wenrou, who was standing to the side, was not so lucky. Her vision went black and she collapsed to the ground with a loud thud, hitting the stone slab with a painful sound. But no one was paying attention to her now.
People scattered and ran away, screams filling the air...
The sounds drifted through the magnificent palace.
The crisp sound of soldiers drawing their swords echoed in the hall, and the cries from below the steps instantly turned into desperate screams, only to be quickly drowned out by the sound of sharp blades piercing flesh.
Han Zixuan turned and walked out of the hall. The golden rays of the setting sun fell on her blood-stained armor, reflecting a cold, hard light.
The bloodshed and wailing behind him seemed irrelevant to him. Her steps were steady, her shadow stretching long in the setting sun, carrying an undeniable authority and resolve.
"The sun is shining exceptionally brightly today..."
It took a full three days to resolve all the issues concerning the officials, powerful families, and influential clans of the Eastern Sang Kingdom.
On this day, Han Zixuan was discussing the governance of Dongsang Kingdom with Vice General Hai and the others.
"Commander Han, I think it would be better to leave Deputy General Li here to guard the area..."
"Hey...hey...no, no, I'm just a roughneck who only knows how to fight, how would I know how to govern the people?"
I think Lieutenant General Hai is the most suitable person. Not only is he exceptionally skilled in martial arts, but he also studied with an old scholar for several years before enlisting.
It's true that we can conquer the entire Dongsang Kingdom, but we also need to leave someone behind to guard and protect it.
None of them wanted to stay here, even though they could rule the world here, none of them wanted to stay.
Han Zixuan was also speechless. They had been too careless... They should have brought a few accompanying officials. Now that everything was ready, they couldn't find a single person who could keep things in order...
There are still over 100,000 ordinary people in Dongsang Kingdom, which is not a small number.
If they leave, their efforts in electing a new king will have been in vain.
At this point, the only candidates left are Vice General Li and Vice General Hai...
"That's enough... Staying here is only for the sake of expediency... It's not like we're just going to leave you here and ignore you."
I will ask His Majesty for permission to send officials to take over... and then we can return to the capital.
It's only been a few months, why are you all avoiding it like the plague?
The man can relax for a few months and then travel around Dongsang again...
"They still refuse no matter what."
She did think it would be nice to bring her husband and children here for a visit, but time didn't allow it, so they both declined.
Seeing Han Zixuan's angry expression, Vice General Li and Vice General Hai looked at each other and lowered their heads. After thinking about it carefully, they realized that it was true and stopped arguing.
"It all rests with Commandant Han's decision."
Han Zixuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Alright, then I'll decide. Let Vice General Hai stay..."
Compared to Vice General Li, Vice General Hai is much more composed, and I feel more at ease with her in charge.
The matter was already settled, and Vice-Minister Hai didn't say anything more, bowing and replying, "Yes, Your Excellency is at the command of Commandant Han."
Upon hearing this, Lieutenant General Li immediately grinned and showed his teeth to Lieutenant General Hai.
Han Zixuan said in silence, "Alright, that's settled then. Of the 60,000 soldiers we brought this time, 30,000 will be left to Vice General Hai, and the rest will depart by ship tomorrow."
Kyoto is already urging them urgently, as they've heard that the Southern Zhao Kingdom and the Western Shu Kingdom are already making moves. They can't stay here any longer.
Vice Admiral Hai watched them leave with a reluctant expression, feeling a pang of melancholy.
Lieutenant Li on the ship made no attempt to hide his joy.
Han Zixuan asked speechlessly, "Why would you want to leave? Wouldn't it be impressive to stay there?"
Lieutenant Li chuckled and said, "This humble official wishes to stay by Commandant Han's side forever. Being by your side is more prestigious than anything else."
Han Zixuan's superb martial arts skills and swift and decisive actions were exactly what she admired.
Being by Commandant Han's side made her feel that the battle was extremely enjoyable, unlike other generals who were so fussy and hesitant when they encountered a princess.
This swift and decisive action completely eradicated a nation, eliminating the Dongsang Kingdom from existence forever...
Han Zixuan saw the glint in Lieutenant General Li's eyes and a dark line appeared on her forehead...
It was the first time I'd ever been looked at with such blatant admiration, and I felt a little uncomfortable.
Upon returning to Minzhou, Feng Xiyue received a secret letter from the capital, in which she described the situation in Nanzhao and Xishu.
He Yun has already begun fighting with Xi Shu on the northwestern border, and there are also disturbances in Nan Zhao. The southwestern army has also gone to suppress them.
He ordered Han Zixuan to resolve the issues in Dongsang Kingdom and immediately proceed to both locations to provide support...
Han Zixuan finished reading the letter with a cold face. "Fine, this is taking advantage of your weakness to kill you..."
He pondered for a moment and said, "Immediately issue the order: the rested troops should set off immediately to provide support in the southwest..." General He has over 100,000 men fighting there, so the battle won't be too fast.
In addition, the natural mountain barriers would make it difficult for the Western Shu Kingdom to conquer it.
Moreover, they are closer to the southwest than the northwest, so after dealing with the Southern Zhao Kingdom, they can head north from the southwest.
He immediately sent a letter to Kyoto by express courier, and also sent a letter home to let his family know he was safe.
At night, Han Zixuan held and teased Xiao Yelin, making the little boy giggle. After Han Zixuan's series of magical spells, Xiao Yelin no longer had the fear and apprehension he had at the beginning.
"Little Night is approaching...fly...fly..."
"Giggle...fly...Daddy, Feifei..."
Yi Chen, who was standing to the side, smiled broadly as he watched the interaction between the two.
After playing for a while, Han Zixuan stopped and spoke slowly, "I'm about to leave for the southwest. Yichen, are you and the child going back to Kyoto or back to Fengyang County?"
