Chapter 400: Whereabouts Unknown
Chapter 400
Li Feng's eyes lit up and he said seriously: "Miss Tao, don't worry, I can promise you that I will not kill anyone indiscriminately!"
"Really?"
"I will never go back on my word!"
Tao Xiying and Li Feng looked at each other for a long time, nodded slowly, and said, "Okay! I'll go back and discuss with Princess Xing and King Zheng!"
As she spoke, she was about to turn around and walk back.
Li Feng said: "Ms. Tao!"
Tao Xiying looked at Li Feng in confusion.
Li Feng said seriously: "Surrender is your only way out now!"
"I see."
Seeing Tao Xiying showing a thoughtful look, Li Feng stopped talking and turned around and walked back.
Just as he turned around, Tao Xiying suddenly pulled out a dagger from her cuff, and then rushed towards Li Feng.
She knew in her heart that, as Li Feng said, if you resist, there would be no way to live.
The only way is to capture the thief first.
As long as you can capture Li Feng, all the dangers will be solved.
Li Feng really didn't expect that the delicate and weak lady Tao Xiying would suddenly attack him.
When he heard something was wrong behind him, he wanted to react, and it was too late.
Seeing Tao Xiying's dagger approaching Li Feng's neck, the sound of breaking the wind came from the side.
Immediately afterwards, Tao Xiying couldn't help but make a sound when she heard a tingling sound, and the dagger in her hand flew out.
Click!
A small stone bounced back and landed on the ground.
It was this little stone that knocked Tao Xiying's dagger away just now.
The person who shot this little stone was Peng Fei.
Before Tao Xiying could react, Peng Fei's figure seemed to be a stern arrow and instantly rushed to Tao Xiying.
Tao Xiying was about to bend down to pick up the dagger that fell to the ground, but Peng Fei made a move like lightning, holding her wrist, and then twisting her joints back. Tao Xiying felt pain, and her body couldn't help but turn her back to Peng Fei.
Li Feng looked at Tao Xiying with an angry look and gritted his teeth and said, "It's really stubborn!"
As Tao Xiying was captured by Peng Fei, the flying guards and the iron guards present were panicked and were about to rush forward to rescue him. Peng Fei raised his hand and pinched Tao Xiying's throat with three fingers.
He looked at Feiwei and Iron Guard with deep eyes and said, "If you dare to take another step forward, I will crush her neck!"
Everyone present could see clearly how fast Peng Fei's body movement was just now.
With his skills, it is undoubtedly easy to crush Tao Xiying's neck.
People were so scared that they stepped back.
Li Yuan exclaimed: "Don't be impulsive! No... don't hurt Miss Tao! We...we are willing to surrender!"
Tao Xiying was captured by the other party, and Li Yuan and Ji Yanyan had no intention of resisting. The flying guards and iron guards present had to disarm because they were considering Tao Xiying's safety.
Soon, the battle at the King of Wu's Mansion was completely over.
Except for Hua Meier and Xiao Cui Xiaolian who escaped early, the rest of the people in the palace were either killed in battle or captured.
But things are not over yet.
Afterwards, Li Feng took Ji Yanyan and Li Yuan to the top of the city, forcing the Xingwangfu army and the Zhengwangfu army outside the city to surrender.
Li Ying stayed in the Palace of King Wu.
He knew that Li Yu made a fortune in Pyeongchang County, and relied on selling sugar, and later pepper and dragon head fragrance, making money every day.
Li Ying immediately ordered Peng Fei to go to the royal palace's silver treasury and control all the money inside.
Peng Fei immediately took people to the silver treasury.
But after they arrived at the silver treasury, they suddenly found that it was empty inside, not even a copper plate.
Peng Fei inspected for a while, took a breath, and hurried back to report to Li Ying.
When Li Ying heard that the bank deposit had no money, he wondered if he had heard it wrong.
He asked, "Have you checked it carefully?"
"Yes! Your Highness! Check it carefully! There is really no!"
“There is no dark room in the treasury?
cellar?"
Peng Fei shook his head, nothing was there.
Lee Young raised his eyebrows.
It is said that Li Yu was in Pyeongchang County, but he saved a lot of money and was as rich as a country. So, where did that money go now?
His eyes turned and looked at Tao Xiying who was under house arrest in the pavilion.
He walked over and said with a smile: "I heard that in the Wu Prince's Mansion, Miss Tao is responsible for the accounting."
"yes!"
"So, let me ask you, how much money does the Wu Palace cost?"
"A thousand million yuan."
Li Ying's eyes were brighter when he heard this. He couldn't help but take a step forward, approach Tao Xiying, staring at her intently, and asked, "So, where is the money?"
If the money is not in the treasury, where have you hidden it?"
Tao Xiying said: "When Your Highness went to war, he took away all the money in the banknote!"
"impossible!"
Li Ying couldn't help but speak loudly, "March and fight, what should I do if I bring so much money?"
Giving trophy to the enemy?
Tao Xiying said seriously: "Your Highness went to the Xiaoyang Kingdom to fight against the troops of the Dongzhi tribe, and to repel the troops of the two tribes, and naturally, he wanted to make friends with more tribes, so he naturally needed a lot of money!"
Li Ying frowned. For a moment, he could not tell whether Tao Xiying's words were true or false.
It is reported that Li Yu is indeed trying his best to win over the tribes of Xiaoyang Kingdom and bribe them with money, which is not impossible.
Li Ying thought for a while and couldn't help but sigh.
Don’t know that money is so important if you don’t fight.
If you don’t have money, you can’t pay military pay, you can’t afford food and grass, you can’t make military supplies, and you can’t afford to pay casualties.
It can be said that as long as you participate in the war, you need money everywhere.
Originally, Li Ying had high hopes for the Wu Prince's Mansion and thought that he could take all the money Li Yu earned into his own pocket, but in the end, he was completely happy.
It is estimated that Li Ying now never dreamed that the money he had dreamed of was actually just under his feet, just a short distance from him.
Li Ying clenched her fists hard and began to patrol around.
Tao Xiying thought he suspected that he might buy money in the plantation, and suddenly became nervous and his nerves tense as well.
Li Ying glanced around and asked with a frown, "Why do I think there seems to be few people here?"
Tao Xiying frowned and asked, "I wonder who the person His Highness Lu is talking about?"
"Li Yu's favorite courtesan, Hua Mei'er!"
Li Ying said with a slight smile: "It is said that Hua Mei is so beautiful in the world, and I want to open my eyes too!"
Tao Xiying said expressionlessly: "My sister went to Xiaoyang Country with Your Highness..."
Before she finished speaking, Li Ying suddenly stretched out her hand and pinched her neck tightly.
Then, he turned Tao Xiying back to the area and said gritting his teeth: "Tao Xiying, do you know the consequences of cheating me?"
Tao Xiying's face looked ugly, her little face turned red, and she said intermittently: "What I said...everything... is true..."
Li Ying pinched her neck and stared at her for a while before waved her hand outside and pushed Tao Xiying away.
Tao Xiying couldn't stand, and took a few steps back and sat down on the ground.
