Chapter 2698
Liu Yunheng actually follows Lin Yuanan's arrangement well, and immediately says, "Understood."
"I'll bring the troops back immediately."
"Liu Yunyao, you scoundrel, how dare you harm my mother! I will make you die without a whole corpse!"
"Do not let emotions dictate your actions! Otherwise, not only revenge, even your life may not be spared! Your victory or defeat hinges on this single move."
"This is no child's play!"
Lin Yuanan repeatedly reminded Liu Yunheng.
Liu Yunheng also knows the danger this time, after all it's a troop-led palace siege; if mishandled, his life could indeed be at risk, so he readily agreed.
Liu Yunheng immediately gathered his forces and contacted Liu Yunfei, discussing with him how to lure Liu Yunyao out of the Royal City.
Naturally, he also made thorough preparations for his own safety.
Liu Yunfei promptly relayed this information to Ye Liuyun.
"Agree to him."
Tell him that when the time comes you will act as a mediator, feigning to mediate between Liu Yunyao and Liu Yunheng, and trick Liu Yunyao out of the Royal City.
Liu Yunheng wants you to act against Liu Yunyao, intending for you to kill her first and then you, showing no good intentions.
You bring your men into Liu Yunheng's army, join his main force, form a dedicated axe-and-sword unit, and at the crucial moment disperse Liu Yunheng's troops.
Remember to have your people sign Divine Soul Contracts in advance, ensuring they are completely loyal to you!
Ye Liuyun immediately devised a countermeasure and told Liu Yunfei.
"Do you intend to kill Liu Yunheng?"
"Wouldn't that just make it easy for Liu Yunyao?"
Liu Yunfei fundamentally does not understand Ye Liuyun's intention.
Ye Liuyun sneered, "Kill Liu Yunheng?
Hehe, do you have that ability?
Just let Liu Yunyao do the killing, you only need to watch the spectacle.
When the time comes, tell Liu Yunheng that your axe-and-sword unit has mutinied, and have those two close subordinates of yours take the blame.
You offend neither side, and continue to keep in touch with Liu Yunheng.
Liu Yunfei, hearing this, said with some confusion, "If Liu Yunheng learns that my subordinates have all betrayed me, will he think I'm worthless?
If Liu Yunyao discovers that I colluded with Liu Yunheng to harm her, will she strike at me?"
"Are you stupid?"
Liu Yunheng still can't enter the city, and that's because you said the number of subordinates equals the number you have.
Just say there's a hidden force, and you've placed a covert operative beside the princess, and that's all.
As for Liu Yunyao, her main opponent is Liu Yunheng, so she won't deal with you first!
Ye Liuyun said directly, then used the Slave Seal on Liu Yunfei, forcing him to act quickly.
Afterwards, he also told Liu Yunyao the news, prompting her to make preparations.
To deal with an army of fifty thousand, they might employ the thousand Demon Race soldiers from the Nine-Headed Demon Dragon Space World.
Those Demon Race soldiers can wield Zhuanzai Jingjie-level combat power, sufficient to confront fifty thousand ordinary soldiers.
Ye Liuyun also told Liu Yunyao, "When the time comes, you will strike Liu Yunheng with all your might.
If Liu Yunheng dies, then take the opportunity to eliminate Liu Yunfei.
If Liu Yunheng escapes, then keep Liu Yunfei as bait."
After receiving the information, Liu Yunyao immediately began making the corresponding preparations.
She first went to Lin feng zhi; although she knew Liu Yunheng was feigning attack, to prevent his impulsive actions she still gave Lin feng zhi ample preparation.
Lin feng zhi commands one hundred thousand Imperial Guard; defending the city poses no problem.
What he worries about is if later Lin Yuanan also brings troops back to pressure the palace, what should be done then.
Liu Yunyao comforts him, "Then that's not your concern.
Above there are still the Chief Commander and the Father King, aren't there?
They will not stand by idly then, letting them storm the Royal City!"
"Indeed!"
Lin feng zhi thinks Liu Yunyao makes a valid point.
King Liu Lin will absolutely not allow the border troops to enter the Royal City.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be an issue of succession, but the entire dynasty would have to change its surname!
Thus, he also secretly prepares for defending the city.
After speaking with Liu Yunheng, Liu Yunfei also began gradually moving his men out of the Royal City, waiting outside to rendezvous with Liu Yunheng.
Before leaving the city, he forced these subordinates to sign loyalty contracts, preventing any rogue elements later.
When Liu Yunheng arrived with his troops, the entire Royal City was shocked.
Liu Yunheng's whole army wore mourning garb, fifty thousand strong; although they were newly conscripted, Lin Yuanan assigned a Leader to assist Liu Yunheng in training the troops, so they still appeared very imposing.
Liu Yunheng also wore battle armor underneath mourning robes, repeatedly claiming that Liu Yunyao killed the princess Lin Mengxian, and demanding Liu Yunyao repay with her life.
But Lin feng zhi reacted swiftly, immediately closing the city gates, and the soldiers on the walls prepared defenses.
What shocked everyone was not just Liu Yunheng's fifty thousand troops.
Everyone knows that Lin Yuanan was backing Liu Yunheng from behind.
Since Lin Yuanan let Liu Yunheng act first, it indicates Lin Yuanan should also be making a move.
Sure enough, Lin Yuanan also gathered three hundred thousand troops on the border, stirring restlessly.
The Leaders of those three hundred thousand troops are all his own family members, pre‑placed within the army.
So although he is only a Vice Leader, he can still mobilize the three hundred thousand strong army at any time.
He also pressured Liu Qianzhong, demanding an explanation for his own daughter.
Liu Qianzhong had also foreseen this situation long ago; after receiving Lin Yuan'an's message, he merely replied with seven words: "He who harms others ends up harming himself!"
He didn't say anything else.
He clearly didn't want to get involved, letting Lin Yuan'an handle it himself.
The Supreme Leader of the Border Army, who also commands another seven hundred thousand troops, is a royal family member personally cultivated by Liu Qianzhong and has never taken part in the princes' infighting.
He also hadn't received any instructions from Liu Qianzhong, so he merely had his troops on guard against Lin Yuan'an and paid no attention to Lin Yuan'an's movements.
Lin Yuan'an also immediately understood Liu Qianzhong's attitude.
Now he must decide whether he truly wants to deploy troops.
If he does deploy troops, the Fourth Prince must win.
Otherwise, no matter who holds power, his military authority will eventually be revoked, rendering him a useless person.
His family will also decline as a result.
If he does not deploy troops, perhaps after swearing allegiance to the new king he can still get by in this position.
So he is merely bluffing for now.
Whether he should deploy troops still depends on whether Liu Yunheng can handle Liu Yunyao over there.
He also stays in touch with Liu Yunheng every day to learn of the progress there.
On Liu Yunheng's side, he made a show of preparing to attack the city.
The catapults and siege towers were brought out, but they never actually attacked.
Liu Yunfei's over two thousand subordinates have all been taken in by him and formed into a separate axe-and-sword unit.
These Martial Cultivators are somewhat stronger than ordinary soldiers and usually take charge of enforcing military discipline.
Liu Qianzhong completely ignored Liu Yunheng's pressure on the palace, neither showing up nor speaking, leaving everything to Liu Yunyao to handle herself.
After receiving the news, Liu Yunyao simply continued her usual quiet cultivation, waiting for Liu Yunfei to come find him.
After Liu Yunfei's axe-and-sword unit had been reorganized, Liu Yunheng immediately had Liu Yunfei contact Liu Yunyao under the pretense of mediation, tricking her out of the city.
