Chapter 936
Chapter 936 Humans Are Basically Evil
The servant was tall and strong, with especially thick and sturdy arms.
Lin Mengya secretly raised an eyebrow because the man was lifting a bow about half the height of a man and aiming at a certain spot on the battlefield.
She and Baisu looked at each other secretly, and the latter immediately understood.
Although she was a layman, she knew that the strong man must be a powerful archer.
Feeling slightly nervous, she held her breath subconsciously and fixed her eyes on the bow.
That man drew the bow and shot an arrow. The arrow whistled and forced its way through the air.
A strange smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of Lin Mengya’s mouth when she saw the wake of the arrow.
She had thought that the Crown Prince would be willing to take out his trump weapon after at least a few rounds of the game. Little did she expect him to lose his cool like this.
This guy was much inferior to her husband.
“Beautiful lady, watch carefully how I will rule the world!”
The Crown Prince was full of pride. He really thought that he was second to God.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Lin Mengya’s mouth, but there was a hint of a sneer in her glass-like watery eyes.
“Well, then I’ll wait and see.”
It seemed that things were going much better than she had imagined.
Sure enough, as the arrow flew away, another crowd of people suddenly appeared in the southeast corner of the battlefield.
Under the sunlight, the dark golden crowd of people was exceptionally eye-catching.
Because of the new force, the dark red force that had just been in a less difficult situation was being gradually suppressed.
The latter narrowed their battle range and seemed to be far less overwhelming than they had looked last night.
But the Crown Prince and his followers did not notice that some of the dark red force seemed to have intentionally retreated before this.
“No wonder you are so confident, Your Highness. It really surprises me.”
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and spoke calmly, as if she were chatting with the Crown Prince.
“Aha, how can I ascend to the throne if I don’t have the means? That son of a bitch always thinks that he’s so inscrutable, but he doesn’t know that I’ve long sent some spies to work undercover around him!”
The Crown Prince burst out laughing crazily, and there was a hint of viciousness in his laughter.
Lin Mengya raised her hand and gently covered her mouth and nose, as if she were chuckling.
However, her eyes were full of mockery.
The Crown Prince should not know that his so-called spies had already been eliminated by Long Tianyu.
Moreover, every piece of news that came from those spies to him now was elaborate and false.
The Crown Prince did not even realize this. It was ridiculous for him to attempt to defeat Long Tianyu.
“You’re so wise and cunning. All warfare is based on deception. Your Highness, you have thoroughly considered every detail, which is beyond the reach of ordinary folk.”
Lin Mengya’s eyes sparkled and a mysterious smile appeared on her face.
However, the Crown Prince did not know what he would lose because of his arrogance at this moment.
“You’re right, beautiful lady. I’m the rightful emperor, and I’m favored by God. Just wait and see how I ascend to the throne!”
Lin Mengya certainly understood whom the dark golden force took orders from.
She naturally knew that Long Tianyu was not someone who was intolerant towards others.
However, since those people chose to seek refuge with the Crown Prince at this moment, he could not let them go.
She raised her lips slightly. In the snow, she was like a flame of fire, burning wildly on the palace wall.
She seemed to be the torch, ready at all times to start a raging fire in the palace.
The dark red force was severely suppressed, but Lin Mengya knew that the narrowing of the battle range made their defense impregnable.
The Crown Prince’s pride had reached its peak.
The thorn that had been stuck in his chest for so many years was finally about to be completely removed.
Lin Mengya bowed her head, and the smile on her face became bigger and bigger.
If the Crown Prince suffered a blow when his pride reached the peak, she wondered if he would learn a lesson.
It was time for the story to reach its climax.
“Your Highness, our men have retreated to the rear area.”
Long Tianyu’s bright red armor had already been dyed dark red by the blood of his enemies, but it did not affect his greatly handsome appearance.
He was neither the prince who was unsmiling and well-known in the Capital City nor the emperor’s son who retreated in order to advance.
He was a truly mighty man, the commander-in-chief of this army, and also the one whom they could rely on.
Long Tianyu slightly rolled his eyes coldly, and took a quick look around, seeing everything clearly.
“Elder Brother, those cunning guys ran away. Tut-tut, coward.”
Long Qinghan, who was covered in the blood of their enemies, sat on the horse and spoke softly.
Previously, when they were in a good situation, those people pretended to be ready to follow them into the war.
But as soon as the situation became slightly difficult for them, those guys quietly ran away with their men.
Well, where there is life, there is hope. However, it was still too early for them to retreat.
“It doesn’t matter,” Long Tianyu said in a low and hoarse voice.
He looked out as far as he could, but failed to see a red tinge on the palace wall. However, he seemed to be able to read her mind.
His woman, who was brave and lovely, was also working hard for their common goals.
In the past, he had always wanted to include her in the scope of his protection.
However, she kept telling him with her actions that her strength was definitely not inferior to his.
He had to say that the feeling of fighting side by side with his love was better than he had expected.
He suppressed the gentleness in his heart because he had to be cautious in the current case.
“How is the situation?”
He turned around and asked Lin Kui, who had been standing by his side.
The latter immediately reported the situation in detail. After hearing the report, Long Tianyu frowned almost imperceptibly.
“The guys of the Political Cabinet actually came so quickly.”
Actually, those old foxes had sent someone to send him a message before.
However, before they imposed their conditions, he had already rejected them.
The region of Dajin was conquered by the Long family.
The Political Cabinet was nothing more than a watchdog. Now the evil dog wanted to bite its master. How could he tolerate it?
“I think they can’t wait. It’s said that the Crown Prince, our elder brother, offered a high price.”
Long Qinghan showed a cold look, with a somewhat chilly smile on his face.
Although he was the least favored prince, he had inherited the sense of pride in his bones as one of the Long family.
He was much more honorable than the Crown Prince, who always entrusted everything to someone else.
The Long family had conquered this region on their horses. In the generation of the first founder of Dajin, the Long family had almost been massacred in exchange for their control of this region.
Anyway, he would absolutely not allow this region to be coveted by those villains.
“Well, better. We won’t have to look for them one by one.”
Long Tianyu opened his mouth, revealing a sinister smile.
He had been thinking about this matter since the day when the eight heads of the Political Cabinet tried to encroach on the region of Dajin.
Now, the Crown Prince made the members of the Political Cabinet believe that they would be able to be delivered from darkness.
The overly dazzling hope took away the basic judgment from these people living in the dark like mice.
Thus, they decided to exert all their strength in exchange for a single chance to live under the sun.
This was truly ridiculous to the extreme!
If they really wanted to make a comeback, they could simply give up the privilege of the Political Cabinet and return to living in ordinary aristocratic families. After several generations, they might have a way out.
However, after enjoying the privilege, they forgot that their current fate was the price that they would have to pay for the privilege.
They had long been blinded by their greed.
“Fine, I’ll give them a chance to be delivered from darkness!”
“Your Highness, here is a letter from the Political Cabinet.”
The orderly whispered in Lin Kui’s ear, and Lin Kui immediately reported it to Long Tianyu.
“Who is the messenger?”
Long Tianyu was not surprised. Having been in a commanding position for years, the Political Cabinet was as arrogant as the Crown Prince.
Besides, they thought that they had mastered everything, so they naturally wanted to put on airs.
“Bring him here.”
As Lin Kui gave the order, someone immediately brought the messenger here.
Long Tianyu turned around, without even looking at the messenger who seemed to be timid.
“How’s the situation in the Political Cabinet?”
He did not ask what the messenger had come for. Instead, he asked about the situation in the Political Cabinet.
Even stranger, the messenger from the Political Cabinet suddenly straightened up.
His aura became completely different. He was now standing upright, and with ordinary facial features, he looked extremely solemn and respectful.
“Those eight families have sent out all their elite force. You can prepare a wholesale massacre, Your Highness.”
If any member with real power in the Political Cabinet was here, they would be jaw-droppingly stunned.
The messenger, whom they had carefully selected for the peace talks, turned out to be one of Long Tianyu’s followers.
Even more stunning, except for the direct descendants, many members of the eight families had secretly turned away from them. But they probably did not know that.
“Where is the letter?”
Long Tianyu was not surprised by this news at all. The eight families of the Political Cabinet were friends only on the surface.
Apparently, they supported each other, but actually, they would trip over each other.
For example, this time, they were afraid that one of them would contribute more and gain more benefits in the future, so they were scrambling to send out their elites.
But who would have thought that those responsible for inciting them were actually his men?
“Your Highness, you don’t need to read this letter. The eight families are daydreaming and want to bargain for conditions with you at the front. They will help whoever offers a higher price, whether it’s you or the Crown Prince.
The messenger took out a brown-yellow letter from his arms, then tore it into pieces and threw the pieces on the ground disdainfully.
Soon, those pieces of the special paper were stained and dirty by the mud in the snow.
“Humph, so avaricious. You go back and tell them we won’t accept it. If they are capable, just assist the Crown Prince to ascend to the throne smoothly!”
