Chapter 764: Delivering One's Head a Thousand Miles Away

Liu Zheng was completely stunned.

What a damn pig-teammate!

Isn't this just traveling a thousand miles to deliver one's own head?

At a time like this, you still dare to treat Qiao Yuan as a savior; is there something wrong with your brain?

Liang Zheng and his group were also wailing and howling one by one.

What does this mean?

This Qiao Yuan actually has the guts to place the Crown Prince under house arrest? Not letting him return?

Everyone was shocked.

This means rebellion!

"Unreasonable! Unreasonable! Is this a rebellion?"

"It's a rebellion!"

"How outrageous! To actually do this to the Crown Prince..."

Liang Zheng and the others soon ran over to find Liu Zheng and the Prince of Wei, kowtowing and pleading with all sorts of tears.

Liu Zheng and the others exchanged glances, all smiling bitterly.

That Xie Fang has no brain, do you not have brains either? After they wiped out that two-hundred-thousand-strong army a few days ago, can you still not see what Qiao Yuan is up to? You still expect them to be your saviors? What, have I wronged you in some way?

"Liang Daren, please calm down, please calm down..."

But Liu Zheng could only offer words of persuasion.

Liang Zheng knew that the hatred between the Crown Prince and Liu Zheng could absolutely not be explained in a word or two. Therefore, he was now streaming with old tears, casting all shame aside.

"Lord Liu, this is the Crown Prince after all. If he, he, he—if he suffers any mishap, I fear all of us will suffer along with him."

"Lord Liu, please hurry and think of a Method!"

The Prince of Wei snorted coldly: "He went there himself, what does that have to do with Mandarin?"

He had long found that fellow Xie Fang an eyesore, and at this moment, he was thinking that it would be better if he just died!

"Prince of Wei... that is not how one speaks... The Crown Prince's trip to Liaodong was approved by the Emperor, and Lord Liu is in charge. If he suffers any mishap, Lord Liu will be hard-pressed to escape blame, and I fear the Prince of Wei and the Prince of Yong will both..."

Liang Zheng steeled his heart and simply began to threaten.

"You..."

The Prince of Wei was furious: "Someone, take this old thief..."

This was his own territory; they dared to threaten him? At any rate, he was once the number one Feudatory King of Longyan! Since when could any Tom, Dick, or Harry come and urinate on his head?

"Prince of Wei..."

Liu Zheng hurriedly pulled him back and said: "The Crown Prince's safety is indeed of the utmost importance, but Lord Liang, Qiao Yuan clearly came prepared. Right now, his army of three hundred thousand is just thirty miles away. You tell me, we cannot fight our way through, and even if we could, what if Qiao Yuan decides to break the jar and just..."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone shuddered.

What is the Crown Prince?

Although Xie Fang is somewhat incompetent, the Crown Prince represents the dignity of the Imperial House! To be placed under house arrest by that Qiao Yuan at a time like this? This in itself is a slap in the face to the Longyan Imperial Court! If the Crown Prince were to die at the hands of Qiao Yuan, that slap would sting painfully indeed.

"Then..."

"This..."

"Lord Liu, you must think of a Method, think of a Method..."

Liu Zheng smiled bitterly.

In truth, his heart was also thinking that since Xie Fang was courting death, it would be better to just let him die. But upon second thought, that really wouldn't do. First, there is the issue of the Imperial Court's face; the Crown Prince being captured is no small matter, and if the Crown Prince were to die, it would be a massive loss of face. Second is the issue of interests; given the current situation, Xie Fang is really not suited to die. Xie Tianyao has his own painkillers and can probably persist for about another year. But this sort of thing is hard to say; perhaps if his mindset is good, living another two or three years would be no problem.

It was said before that cancer is not fatal; living with cancer after the age of sixty is a very normal thing.

What is fatal is the pain.

He had already solved the problem of his pain, and with a good mindset, he might really live for a few more years. Under such circumstances, it is actually not suitable for the Crown Prince to die. Rather than him dying, it is better to let this good-for-nothing continue as Crown Prince to stabilize the current situation. Once he dies and Xie Ming is established as Crown Prince, other princes will soon rise to the occasion, and the situation will become complex again; this is not what Liu Zheng wants to see.

It's just that he didn't expect...

Xie Fang's brain was truly this useless, actually delivering himself to Qiao Yuan's doorstep.

"This matter requires further deliberation. Lord Liang, I estimate that Qiao Yuan will send another letter soon. Let us see what his intentions are before we make a judgment, how about that?"

Liu Zheng pondered for a moment before speaking.

Upon hearing this, Liang Zheng and the others could only accept it, leaving the place while still weeping and wailing.

Just like that.

Liu Zheng and the others were left behind once more, exchanging helpless glances.

This matter is truly one thing after another.

It never stops, and it is endlessly headache-inducing.

But, at the very least, this incident proves one thing.

This man Qiao Yuan is definitely rebelling!

With a rebellion certain, the army of the remnants of the Great Tang must also be on its way!

What to do?

Liu Zheng and the others could only wait.

Unless forced into a corner, Qiao Yuan likely won't harm Xie Fang.

Suddenly, his expression changed: "Pass the order down, rebuild the defensive fortifications!"

"Prepare to face the enemy!"

The Prince of Wei, the Prince of Yong, and Tie Mu Cheng all gasped.

This matter is the most important of all!

"Hahahaha, delightful, delightful!"

"Good wine, good wine!"

At this moment.

While many people in Wangchuan were worrying about Xie Fang, no one expected that he was still in Qiao Yuan's massive camp, surrounded by singing, dancing, fine wine, and Beauties; looking at these beauties from Joseon, with their delicate skin and heavenly looks, Xie Fang's eyes went straight, and drool flowed all over the floor.

Qiao Yuan watched Xie Fang's appearance, a cold smile that was hard to detect appearing at the corner of his mouth, and then he laughed aloud: "Quick, quick, quick, fill the Supreme Prince's cup, fill it up!"

Two scantily clad Beauties giggled as they leaned over Xie Fang to pour wine.

"Fragrant, fragrant!"

Xie Fang was exceptionally excited, groping around: "Everyone says Liaodong is cold and bitter, but in this Supreme Prince's view, the life of this Regional Commander Qiao is better than even an immortal's!"

The crowd burst into loud laughter upon hearing this.

In his heart, Qiao Yuan felt even more disdain for this Xie Fang.

Just this?

A Supreme Prince?

Is there no one left in the Longyan imperial court? Can this kind of Supreme Prince truly inherit the throne? After just a few cups of strong liquor and being coaxed by a few Beauties, this Xie Fang had directly spilled everything that should and should not be said. For example, the current situation over at Wangchuan, how many troops Liu Zheng had under his command, how large the Tomb Cluster was, how many combat personnel there were, what the defensive fortifications were like...

This Xie Fang was meticulous, leaving nothing out, and told it all.

What a good man!

Qiao Yuan almost laughed up at the sky.

It was truly a case of someone bringing a pillow just as one was getting sleepy!

One hundred thousand troops...

After hearing this number, Qiao Yuan almost wanted to give the order for his three hundred thousand-strong army to attack immediately.

Fortunately, he restrained his temper and inquired about the defensive fortifications as well.

"Good, good, good, fragrant, fragrant and soft, fragrant and soft!"

Xie Fang was still playing around.

Along this journey, the Beauties prepared for him by Liang Zheng and the others had long since bored him; having something fresh was naturally different.

Having learned what he wanted, Qiao Yuan immediately gave a cold smile: "Then, Supreme Prince, why don't you just stay on my side and keep playing?"

"Mm, mm, good..."

Xie Fang was kissing a Beauty's face and muttered absentmindedly.

But immediately, he reacted, his whole body jolted, and he jumped up: "You, what did you say?"

Qiao Yuan sneered.

Xie Fang was suddenly struck with terror in his heart: "This, it is getting late, Lord Qiao, this Supreme Prince will return first..."

Clang, clang, clang!

He had not yet stood up.

Some Liaodong guards nearby had already drawn their swords and blades, holding them against Xie Fang's neck.

Xie Fang's expression changed drastically in an instant.
