Chapter 569: The Gift From North Qing
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Hong Fang was irritated by Ye Huangyu and Nie Fengxing's intimacy. He looked grim.
How ironic! He and Ye were once this close. But now she was accompanied by some other man.
"Ignorant fool. If so, I will myself send you to meet your short lived daughter in the underworld!" Hong Fang's eyes flashed with cruelty. Behind him, An Guohou and his people surrounded them.
Hong Fang's side had more high level warriors than Xia Houqi's. Plus, there were people not good at fighting, like Empress Dowager and Empress Liu, on Xia Houqi's side. The situation was unfavorable to the Crown Prince.
"Master Hong, are you really going to kill them all?" At this moment, Feng Shen walked to the front.
Hong Fang looked somewhat loosened up seeing Feng Shen.
He could kill anyone, but not Feng Shen.
Even if he did seize the throne, the Hong family did not dare contradicting the North Qing.
"Lord Feng, this is the state affair of Da Xia. You are the honorable guest from North Qing. Perhaps it's better you do not interfere." Hong Fang knew that there was nothing keen between Lord Feng and the Crown Prince Xia Houqi. They had quite a strife over Ye Lingyue.
"Master Hong, Lingyue's mother is among the people you want to kill," said Feng Shen with a calm voice.
Hong Fang was struck dumb for a few seconds. He heard the warning intention in Feng Shen's words. It seemed that Feng Shen wanted to save Ye Huangyu's life.
No wonder. Feng Shen cherished Ye Lingyue. Although she had passed, it was understandable that he wanted to keep her mother alive.
Hong Fang was willing to spare only Ye Huangyu, for he secretly wanted her alive as well.
He could always have the woman he wanted, just with some maneuvers.
"I can spare Ye Huangyu, now that you honorable have asked." Hong Fang readily agreed.
"Now besides Ye Huangyu, wouldn't you let go of Lingyue's step parents, families and friends as well?" Feng Shen sounded very calm. It was unable to tell his intentions.
Hong Fang's lips trembled. His heart sank.
This Feng Shen was not an easygoing people as his appearance suggested. According to what he said, he should release everyone on the drill ground!
"Lord Feng, you are, after all, too young. Sometimes, when dealing with situations as these, you need to learn to compromise. I saved you face for the sake of the North Qing Emperor. Now if you fail to appreciate that, then excuse me for my offense!" said Hong Fang decisively. He waved his hand and was about to order An Guohou and his people to stop Feng Shen.
"How dare you! I'll see who have the guts to hurt my master!" Dao Nu shouted in anger and stood before Feng Shen.
"Dao Nu, back-off." A light smile was lingering on Feng Shen's face. But coldness filled his pair of pretty eyes.
He strode towards Hong Fang.
"Master Hong, before you take a move, I suggest you first look back." No sooner than Feng Shen had said these words when Hong Fang heard a string of thunderous sound from behind.
A robust-looking North Qing soldier, Conglv, leading several guards from North Qing, charged into the drill ground.
Along with them were eight long cannons, each the height of a person, whose dark and devouring muzzle stared in the face of Hong Fang and his people.
Beads of sweats broke out on Hong Fang and his people's foreheads when they saw the cannons.
The military Nieyuan Cannons of the North Qing!
Even Hong Shisan felt his eyelids abruptly jumped when he saw the cannons. He stared back with disbelief.
Even from a distance, Hong Fang could feel the chilly murderous aura of those cannons.
The military Nieyuan Cannons ordered by the army of North Qing was each loaded with ten shells. Legends had it that the North Qing Emperor had the Dan Palace smelt them.
The military Nieyuan Cannons were unbelievably powerful. They had the capacity to blow up a city in a blink of an eye. These warriors of the Reincarnation Realm and Dan Realm present here were nothing before them.
Compared to these monsters, the Nieyuan Cannon that Hong Shisan had used earlier was only a portable type, not as powerful as these military ones, but lighter and more convenient to carry around.
Hong Fang's face turned pale involuntarily. He finally understood why Feng Shen had been so calm and assured: he had an ace in his hand right from the start!
Eight Nieyuan Cannons he had in hands. That was enough to blast him and those aristocrats and marquises into bits and pieces!
"Hong Fang, I have joined in a coalition with the North Qing. That eight Nieyuan Cannons is a gift from the North Qing Emperor to Da Xia. I would love to find out which one of you are superior: the flesh and blood bodies of your army, or the cannons," said Xia Houqi with an unrelenting tone, enjoying the dismay on the face of Hong Fang and his people.
A murderous look flashed across his face.
Ye Lingyue's tragic death had finally grown him, the sixth prince of Da Xia, whom, since his birth, life had greeted with waves more than his share.
Since his beloved had forever left him, it did not matter anymore with whom he shall own the world together.
Xia Houqi had decided to leave his loving heart behind and safeguard the rickety reign of Da Xia in his own way.
Feng Shen stood beside him without expressions. His eyes, however, flickered with cunning.
No one knew better than him where the eight Nieyuan Cannons came from.
The so-called coalition was, in fact, an exchange. Xia Houqi had, after a long struggle, finally agreed to marry Princess Qingbi of the North Qing as a gesture of cooperation.
Otherwise, how on earth could the North Qing Emperor be so kind as to send them eight military Nieyuan Cannons?
This kind of cannon required a long and tricky manufacturing process of at least a year.
Even in the North Qing, it was considered a precious military resource, something even Chen Qiao, the lord of Kaijiang, could not mobilize so many at a time. That eight of them could be transported unnoticeably to Da Xia in such a short period of time was only a privilege of Xia Houqi's, the North Qing Emperor's son-in-law-to-be.
Hong family's coup was a rare opportunity for Feng Shen.
He could use it to not only revenge Ye Lingyue for her family feuds, but also knock this rival in love of his off the game: killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, he would never tell anyone the truth in his living years.
Hong Shisan looked at Xia Houqi and Feng Shen, whose expressions hugely differed, and felt weird.
"Xia Houqi, cannons are cold and ruthless things. Nieyuan Cannon can destroy the Xia palace."
Despite Hong Fang's attempts to keep cool, the look on the aristocrats and soldiers' face gave him out. An Guohou and others' eyes became evasive and the thought of surrendering welled up in their heads.
Just at this time, the sky boomed. Hong Qingyun and Gu Cangtian was in the heat of their fight.
Then with a muffled groan, Gu Cangtian's figure shook and almost fell from the sky. Blood oozed from his mouth. It seemed that he was severely injured.
