Chapter 166 Yan Xun Surrenders

"Who said that there is no prey, this son and Zhao Gongzi have been busy for so long, how can we let everyone come here and return in disappointment!"

"Well, isn't that the prey?"

I saw that Yu Wenhuai spoke at this time, but Yu Wenhuai and Zhao Xifeng still had a perverted smile on the corners of their mouths, as if they were about to appreciate something extremely wonderful.

Everyone looked in the direction Yu Wenhuai was looking at, only to see dozens of women wearing white prison uniforms, their hands tied with ropes, and being escorted up by a dozen heavily armed cavalry.

Ying Ji looked at dozens of women curiously, her eyes full of inquiry.

If you guessed correctly, Chu Qiao must be among these people.

In fact, Ying Ji is also somewhat unimaginable. Compared with the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Chu Qiao Chuan world, which is more developed in civilization, still has the existence of slaves. It seems that there are many strange things in the troubled times!

"What, Yu Wenhuai, Zhao Xifeng, you two are simply beasts!"

"You actually want to take dozens of living women as prey, do you still have any conscience in your heart?"

Yuan Chun looked at Zhao Xifeng and Yu Wenhuai angrily. Although Yuan Chun was simple, he was not stupid!

Looking at the perverted smiles of Zhao Xifeng and Yu Wenhuai, and the current situation, they can guess even by guessing.

What kind of hunting is this? It's clearly killing people!

These are all living people, and they are still young girls in their prime. How can you treat these people as prey?

"Zhao Xifeng and Yu Wenhuai, it's best for the two of you to be this princess' assistant, because you are still the sons of the court officials."

"To be so ignorant of the king's law, to dare to take such a careless life outside the capital of Chang'an City, this princess must tell her father and the emperor after she returns, and ask you all to be blamed."

Yuan Chun looked at the two of them and said angrily, but Yu Wenhuai, who was on the side, snorted coldly and said.

"Your Highness Princess, you can't spit your blood!"

"My Yuwen family has been loyal to the imperial court for generations, how can I dare to despise the majesty of the imperial court?"

"But don't forget, Your Royal Highness, that the law of the Great Wei King stipulates that no one should take lives and kill civilians."

"But these people are not good people. These women are all slaves, and naturally they are all classified as slaves!"

"There is no rule in the court law that slaves cannot be killed. Since they are slaves, they must have the consciousness of slaves."

"Young Master Zhao and I are both the masters of these slaves, and naturally we have the right to decide their life and death. Even if Her Royal Highness the Princess reports to the imperial front, Her Majesty will never interfere."

Yu Wenhuai said with a chuckle, while Zhao Xifeng repeatedly agreed and said yes.

"What, brother Yan Xun, you are the prince of Dingbei Houfu, please, brother Yan Xun, save these people!"

In desperation, Yuan Chun could only look at Yan Xun for help.

Yan Xun is also a little moved. He has been a person from the grassland since he was a child, and Yan Xun, who is full of injustice and righteousness, naturally does not want to see these dozens of women being shot and killed as animals.

But just as he was about to speak, he fell silent.

"Chun'er, Young Master Yuwen and Young Master Zhao are right. These people are all slaves, and their masters will decide whether they live or die!"

"I'm sorry, Chun'er, I, Yan Xun, are not their masters, and naturally I can't decide their fate."

When Yan Xun said these words against his heart, his heart was also full of pain.

Yan Xun is not a fool. On the contrary, there are some people who dominate Yan Xun at this moment.

As the prince of Dingbei Houfu, Yan Xun was naturally aware of the undercurrents surging under the calm court.

His father held the Yanbei army, and there were three strong brigades, the Xiuli Army, the Black Eagle Army, and the Hongchuan Army!

The size and combat power of Yanbei's army was already equal to one-third of the entire Great Wei Dynasty, and even exceeded.

And all the tribes in the grasslands have their father Dingbei Hou Yan Shicheng as the main force, and his father's reputation in Yanbei is so high.

As a result, the entire Yanbei has now reached the city of Yanshi in Dingbei, but not the current emperor.

All these, even his own father Yan Shicheng, who once sworn brothers and had the power to escort him, made the current emperor doubly suspicious.

In order to alleviate the suspicion of the current emperor about his father, he left his hometown when he was young and came to Chang'an City to become a bright-looking, but indeed a hostage, Prince Dingbei!

Every year, every month, every moment is like walking on thin ice, avoiding the cold arrows shot from the dark!

He also endured an unbearable period of suffering at an age that should not have been endured, in order to alleviate the imperial court's suspicion of Yanbei.

Now that he is under the surveillance of all parties in Chang'an City, he is walking on thin ice everywhere!

If they offend Yu Wenhuai and Zhao Xifeng and the two families behind them again, then the situation of the Dingbei Houfu will probably be even worse!

Yan Xun could indeed forcefully rescue these dozens of women, but Yan Xun had to think about his parents.

He had to think about the lives of hundreds of people in the Marquis of Dingbei, and had to think about the hundreds of thousands of people in the entire Yanbei.

In the end, Yan Xun could only painfully choose to go against his heart. He chose to watch the dozens of women being shot and killed like beasts, and he also chose to surrender!

"What, Big Brother Yan Xun, Chun'er doesn't seem to have heard clearly, Big Brother Yan Xun, can you say it again?"

Yuan Chun's gaze towards Yan Xun was full of disbelief!

Is it the brother Yan Xun who grew up with him? Is this the big hero brother in your heart? Why does it all seem to have changed without knowing it?

"I'm sorry, Chun'er!"

Yan Xun didn't dare to look at Yuan Chun's innocent eyes, so he could only turn his head in other directions.

Yan Xun was afraid, he was afraid that he would compromise under such innocent and perfect eyes!

He was afraid that after he compromised, he would be targeted by Zhao Xifeng and Yu Wenhuai, and he was afraid that he would be targeted by the Yuwen family forces and the Zhao family forces, which would affect his family.

Yuan Chun looked at Yan Xun's cowardly gaze, and felt even more unbelievable in his heart!

Brother Yan Xun would compromise in front of the two scumbags, Zhao Xifeng and Yu Wenhuai. Is this still the brother Yan Xun that he is familiar with?

Involuntarily, Yuan Chun felt a little bit of disappointment with his brother Yan Xun, whom he had admired and admired since he was a child!

Yuan Chun knew in his heart that only Yan Xun had the background and strength to save these people.

But now even brother Yan Xun has given up, do these women have to wait to die?

And Yuan Chun had to admit that Yu Wenhuai had some truth in what he said.

These people are all slaves. Even if they kill them, let alone their father, they won't care. I'm afraid even the government won't care. But the kind-hearted Yuan Chun still can't bear to watch these young women go to death. .
