As the sun set in the west, the killing that had lasted for a whole day on the plain finally came to an end.

The Goguryeo people surrendered.

Without the commander's orders, the Goguryeo soldiers, who were completely frightened by the Modao troops led by the King of Chu, voluntarily laid down their weapons and surrendered.

And the missing Quan Gaisuwen didn't really go far.

because……

“Your Highness, isn’t it a coincidence—” When Yuwen Qing excitedly ran to the hillside where His Highness the King of Chu was resting and reported to the master of the family who was chewing dry food the good news that he had captured Quan Gaisuwen alive, the latter was too tired to complain: “Stop howling…I know…” His Highness the King of Chu waved his hands weakly after hearing this: “You can pull someone out of the bushes just by peeing anywhere. I have nothing to say.”

"Your Highness, this is all based on experience." Yuwen Qing chuckled when he heard this: "When I used to go hunting with my father, he taught me that I could identify the type of prey by the traces on the ground. But this Quan Gaisuwen is a fool - he actually left such clear footprints that I didn't even need to do much to identify them..."

"Reward, a huge reward!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu raised his hand upon hearing this: "How about this, when my daughter is born, your little Mu Yao will become sworn sisters with her?"

"Your Highness... How can I do this..." Yuwen Qing's eyes narrowed into slits when he heard this: "How can I be worthy of this minister..."

"Go away..." After swallowing a mouthful of cold steamed bun, His Royal Highness the King of Chu opened the kettle and drank a mouthful of water. Then he stood up and said to Li Ji who came here: "Lord Li, I will sleep in your tent tonight. Do you want to sleep with me?"

"..."General Li Ji, who had previously shouted "I will share life and death with my king", looked at the King Chu in front of him, who was about to become a father but was still as erratic as ever. The feeling in his heart was... hard to describe.

But it's hard to say it in one sentence, so I'll say a few more words: "Your Highness..." Li Ji felt that it was not a good idea to delay some things: "You really don't want to go see His Majesty?"

“本王害怕待会儿因为一时心情激动，揍了陛下心爱的赵国公。”——被自家的好舅舅一直针对，让如今的楚王殿下也没了尊敬对方的心思：“要本王说，你们就不该让那昏君御驾亲征——他要是有个好歹，就我大哥那个熊样子，能镇得住场面？到时候又得轮到本王出马，铁骑出岭南，一路北上，杀他个血流成河——可是李公啊，本王的志向，一直都是为国开疆拓土啊……”

"..." There were too many elements in King Chu's words. Even though Li Ji was a duke, he couldn't respond.

So he thought for a long time, and then said: "Then your highness... do you think it's time for that idiot... bah bah bah... to meet His Majesty?"

"Wait a minute..." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu suddenly came forward, and Li Ji only felt a strong smell of blood rushing towards him: "Lord Li...you...are you planning to betray us?!"

"What..." Li Ji said guiltily after hearing this: "Your Highness, King of Chu, I don't understand what you are saying..."

"Something's wrong... Lord Li, something's wrong with you..." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu crossed his arms over his chest and thought for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Oh! You are afraid that the tyrant king is narrow-minded and thinks that your previous military order has exposed his position, so you plan to surrender to me!"

"Ah..." Li Ji sighed helplessly after hearing this: "Your Highness the King of Chu is really smart!"

"Are you kidding me?!" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu widened his eyes upon hearing that.

"You were the one who started it!" Li Ji said with his neck stiffened.

“Hey! Lord Li, I haven’t seen you for a while, you’ve become tougher!” His Royal Highness the King of Chu was polite and praised, but that didn’t stop him from going up and putting the man on the ground: “Tian Chang, Wu Shuang, hold him down for me!”

"Your Highness!" Shan Tianchang and Xiong Wushuang were the ones who did whatever His Highness the Prince of Chu told them to do, so without saying a word, they helped His Highness the Prince of Chu to pin the Duke of England down on the grass.

"I will let you--" Just as King Chu was about to have a good interaction with his non-official retainer, a voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Stinky boy, are you angry now?"

"What?" His Highness the King of Chu did not expect that his restraint would still be met with the incompetence of this incompetent monarch: "This... General Tiance, you must let me have a good chat with you, right?"

As His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu said this, Zhang Zhenxuan, Yuan Tiangang, Yuwen Qing, Pei Xingyan, Jiang Sheng and others who had been surrounding His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu to watch the fun, also quietly came to His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu and formed a confrontation with His Majesty Li II who came with Zhangsun Wuji, Li Daozon, Li Xiaogong and Cheng Yaojin.

"..."To be honest, this scene can only be described with one idiom: tense.

"..." Seeing this scene, His Majesty Li II suppressed his anger and said coldly: "You have a group of good retainers!"

"What's the matter?" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu tilted his head when he heard this, and said, "Didn't the Empress Dowager leave any for you? This shouldn't be the case..."

The tone is serious and full of sarcasm.

“……”On this hillside, there was only silence.

After a long while, His Majesty Li Er suddenly sighed and said, "Kuan'er, I want to talk to you alone."

"Yuwen Qing, hand Quan Gaisu Wen over to Lord Li." His Royal Highness the King of Chu knew that there were some things he couldn't avoid, so he simply made his attitude clear first.

Li Ji, he was saved.

"Yes." Yuwen Qing said nothing after hearing this, and turned to wave his hand down the hillside.

Soon, Tao Daniu brought up Quan Gaisuwen, who was tied up.

"Li Kuan! You must not--" Quan Gaisuwen's hatred for King Chu was so overwhelming that he even bypassed His Majesty Li Er who was also present. He planned to greet--

"Pah!" Tao Daniu slapped him in the face. "If you keep whining, I'll shove your head into horse manure!"

"Bull, put it in now!" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was already in a bad mood, and Quan Gaisu Wen actually insisted on being stubborn with him.

"Okay!" Tao Daniu planned to take the person away after hearing that.

"No, Kuan - Your Highness the Prince of Chu..." Seeing this, Zhang Sun Wuji subconsciously wanted to stop him: "How can this be allowed..."

"Duke Zhao, this man is now a prisoner... If you need anything... He can still be used after being washed." As a retainer of the King of Chu, Yuan Tiangang's targets of his harsh words were basically his own patriarch. However, this did not mean that he would tolerate those who went against his patriarch.

The phrase “it can still be used after washing” confused everyone.

Chang Sun Wuji, who was the first to come to his senses, blushed instantly: "Yuan Tiangang!"

"Why are you so loud?" His Royal Highness Prince Chu looked at the other party unhappily and said, "Was I too gentle to you before?"

It's as if you can interfere with me at any time!

"..." Although His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu's attitude at this moment could not be described as aggressive, Changsun Wuji suddenly had the illusion that he was being stared at by a tiger.

"Wuji, take the others away first." Emperor Li II could see that his son was in a very irritable mood at the moment. He could even understand it, and... because of his understanding, he became particularly tolerant.

"Zhenxuan, take everyone to rest first." When His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu saw that his usually strong father suddenly softened his attitude, he certainly knew what this meant.

It's just... I finally realized that I was wrong.
