Chapter 30
Xie Chenghe always kept his word, and since he had agreed to Yue Zhirou's request, he seriously submitted a letter to the court and sent Ling Yun back to the north.
Pei Annan thought that the Ling family was more or less related to the royal family, and the Ling family had made many generations of contributions on the battlefield, so he retained the title of Duke of Lingyun Town, but the actual power was completely reduced, and the Dingbei Army was also divided and moved.
If this is spread out, the common people will praise His Majesty for his benevolence and righteousness.
When Ling Yun came out of Tingwei Prison, he was already too thin to look good.
His cheekbones were high, his face and body were covered with bloody wounds, his eye sockets were sunken and tinged with purple, and a pair of eyeballs were twisted in a circle, which was eerie and terrifying.
Pei Annan ordered him to set off immediately, not even giving him time to recuperate. He spat in the direction of the palace, got on the carriage sadly, and headed out of the capital like a prisoner.
With no one to see him off, he was just a prisoner. He kept his title as Duke of Zhenguo, but he was no longer as good as before.
But when he reached the city gate, an unexpected figure stood out, holding a wooden box in his hand.
"Master Xie." Ling Yun narrowed his eyes and got out of the car, "It's hard for Master Xie to still be thinking about me."
He looked around and sneered: "In the past, no matter where I went, I would always be cheered by people. Anyone who saw me would have to bow down and obey orders and flatter me."
"Now that I'm in such a state of desperation, I don't even have anyone to send me to, and I have to embarrass my opponent to pity me!"
As he spoke, he glared at Xie Chenghe fiercely and gritted his teeth: "If you and that old woman hadn't acted in a show to deceive me, would I have ended up in this situation? Neither of you will die! I will be waiting for you in hell!"
"
Xie Chenghe's expression was calm and uncomplicated: "Master Ling, please be careful. You have just come out. If you go back because of your indiscriminate words, it will not be worth it."
Ling Yun snorted lightly when he heard this, with a sarcastic look on his face. He was not only mocking Xie Chenghe's naivety, but also mocking his own ending:
"Do you think she will really let me go back to the North? What a dream!"
"Even if I lose the Dingbei Army, my prestige and reputation in the North are enough to start a new business. Do you think I don't know that in recent years there have been rumors that I have colluded with foreign countries and taken advantage of others?"
"Are those rumors coming from the Pei family's royal family, who are afraid of my superiority and want to eradicate them? Or are they coming from the north to sow discord and make me rebel?"
"She is also afraid that she will push me into a panic. I will defect to another country and then turn around and beat the shit out of you intellectuals who take off your pants and fart!"
He spat, and all the bones in his body ached. He lost a few teeth and now it is difficult to speak.
When did the majestic Duke of the Kingdom, who had been galloping on the battlefield for so many years, fall to this level? It was because he was inferior to others in skill and was defeated by that woman. Now that he was about to die, he accepted it.
But even if he is going to die, he still has to create obstacles for Xie Chenghe and Pei Anan:
"Just wait and see, I will die if I don't get back to Beidi. That woman is too shrewd, I can't fight her, so I admit defeat."
"But what about you? Have you never thought that you were also plotted?"
"You were the most opposed to her among the civil servants at the beginning. Think about it, if you and I were attacking from both sides, would she be able to fight against us?"
"She knows it very well! If you think about it, since I came to Beijing, what has she done on her own? Didn't she use you to pave the way for her?"
"You think people cherish your talents, but you don't know that they are using you as a knife! Now that I am dead and Yue Jinyan is dead, you can figure out who will be next!"
After saying that, without waiting for Xie Chenghe's reply, he turned around and got into the carriage with a big smile, ignoring him again.
Xie Chenghe's expression was calm, and he handed the wooden box in his hand to the officer escorting Ling Yun, and said: "Here are some thick clothes, which were given by Your Majesty. If it gets cold on the road, I'm thinking of putting them on for Lord Ling."
The official took it, received some more rewards, said a few good words with a smile on his face, and then left.
Seeing the group of people marching away and gradually disappearing from Xie Chenghe's sight, his straight face suddenly fell.
There is no Yue Zhirou.
Among this group of people, there is no Yue Zhirou.
Didn't she spend so much effort and go through such a detour just to go back with Ling Yun? Why wasn't she there?
Xie Chenghe had a vague premonition in his heart, but he couldn't grasp the details. He just stood at the gate of the city for a long time, and Ren Xue turned gray.
…
【What is the return of destiny! This is called the return of destiny!】
[I’m so excited!!! Couldn’t the author have just written this and be done with it? I’m going to get a high score now!]
[I thought that the double harvest of career and love in Huaihuai was amazing enough, but I didn’t expect God’s help! Now I can wait for the ending with peace of mind, hahahaha!]
The corners of Pei Anan's lips were slightly raised, the corners of her eyebrows were curved, and the smile in her eyes was not happiness, but pride.
Ling Yun's convoy returning to the Northland passed by a wasteland when a meteor suddenly fell from the sky and directly hit Ling Yun's carriage.
Immediately, the sky collapsed, the earth shook, and the mountains shook, and fire shot into the sky! When people found out, no one was left alive, and they could only tell who was who from the severed limbs and flesh.
If this was just the case, Ling Yun would be in bad luck at best.
The strange thing is that later when people went to clean up the scene, they found that the meteorite had been torn into pieces, but there was still a large piece of beautiful jade with clear color and excellent quality.
People suspected that the jade was the core of a broken meteorite. When they picked it up, they saw a few large characters engraved on the beautiful jade:
"The goddess descended to earth, where she was destined to be."
This matter spread all of a sudden, and people said that Pei Annan was the emperor sent by God. Otherwise, there were all male emperors in the past. How come she had a female emperor? It must be a matter of days!
That Ling Yun was ambitious and wanted to compete with the goddess, which naturally made Heavenly Dao dissatisfied. Well, wouldn't he be killed by Heavenly Dao?
The spread became wider and wider, and the rumors became more and more outrageous. People in many places even erected stone statues of Pei Annan. For a time, the worship of Pei Annan among the people reached its peak.
"These five thousand points are really worth it." Pei Annan laughed softly.
The points mall offered a 30% discount for completing the side mission very well. She spent 4,500 points to buy the cheapest one, and the command system positioned Ling Yun.
As for the beautiful jade, it was a large diamond she bought with 500 points. In her era, diamonds were still used on tools and small decorative gems, so such large diamonds were naturally rare and eye-catching.
Buying a diamond comes with engraving, and the after-sales service is extremely good. Pei Anan stuffed the diamond into a wooden box. The box was filled with thick winter clothes, which could protect it from attacks.
Ling Yun, on the other hand, had no chance to enter the Northland and open the wooden box.
What way of heaven? What destiny? They are all just words to deceive those stupid people.
She, Pei Annan, is the way of heaven and destiny, and she is the one who controls the overall situation!
