The First Marquis of Leisure

Several armored soldiers rushed forward, but Bai Xinghe paid no attention.

A cold smile flashed across his lips. After merging his memories, he had a clear understanding of the combat capabilities of the Prime Minister's personal guards.

He then picked Li Yuan up by the hand and threw him at the charging armored soldiers, hitting several of them instantly.

He then rushed over quickly, knocked down another person with a single punch, and even disarmed the attacker with his bare hands.

He snatched a knife from one of the armored soldiers and killed several people on the spot.

The entire process was so smooth and seamless that it was quite astonishing to Li Yuan and Zhao Feishuang.

The two couldn't believe their eyes. When did the spoiled brat Bai Xinghe acquire such skill and strength?

However, Bai Xinghe didn't give the two a chance to react at all!

He walked towards Li Yuan, carrying a blood-dripping knife!

"Bai Xinghe, what... what do you want to do?"

"Bai Xinghe, I'm warning you, don't do anything reckless."

Bai Xinghe said coldly, "You wretch, you are still a princess of the current dynasty. Don't worry, this young master won't kill you!"

"But what harm is there in killing that bastard Li Yuan!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan felt a chill run down his spine.

"Bai, Bai Xinghe, my father is the Prime Minister of the Great Zhao Dynasty. If you dare to kill me, your entire Zhenguo Marquis's mansion will be buried with me!"

"Is that so?" Bai Xinghe chuckled inwardly as he stomped Li Yuan to the ground.

"In that case, I am somewhat afraid."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan thought that his threat had indeed worked.

Just as he was about to speak again, he saw Bai Xinghe suddenly raise his knife.

Before Li Yuan could react, Bai Xinghe swung his knife precisely at his crotch.

"Ah, Bai Xinghe, I... I'll fuck your mother, I'll kill your whole family! Ahhhhhh!"

With a series of heart-wrenching screams, Li Yuan clutched his lower body and collapsed to the ground.

Zhao Feishuang was completely terrified, her face deathly pale. She never expected Bai Xinghe to castrate Li Yuan with a single stroke!

"Bai Xinghe, you...you actually castrated Li Yuan! This princess will exterminate your entire clan!"

This castration not only castrated Li Yuan, but also sealed her fate for the rest of her life.

"You bitch!"

Bai Xinghe didn't care at all. He originally wanted to kill Li Yuan directly, but suddenly changed his mind.

Castration would be more effective than killing; the son of the current prime minister of the Great Zhao Dynasty has become a eunuch.

This was an even more devastating blow to the entire Prime Minister's residence!

"If you take this good-for-nothing Li Yuan right now and rush to the imperial physician to stop the bleeding and treat him, you might still be able to save your dog's life!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Feishuang quickly regained her composure and personally helped Li Yuan, who was in excruciating pain, to walk outside.

Bai Xinghe neither stopped her nor harmed Zhao Feishuang.

After all, the other party was of noble birth and deeply favored by the current emperor, so naturally they couldn't be beheaded directly.

But that doesn't mean he has no other ways to retaliate!

"Zhao Feishuang, listen up! I'll spare you two for now, but I'll give you a grand gift that will shake the entire court later!"

.......

After quickly dealing with Zhao Feishuang and Li Yuan, Bai Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief.

He went outside and saw that the once quiet and harmonious Marquis's mansion was now littered with many corpses lying haphazardly on the ground.

These were all servants of the Marquis's mansion; they all died protecting themselves.

Seeing that he was unharmed, the others, who had been terrified, also ran out one after another from hiding.

Many servants knelt on the ground and wept, but Bai Xinghe did not reprimand them.

He knew Li Yuan and Zhao Feishuang's identities, and that they had come prepared, in addition to the recent rumors.

These servants all have families, so naturally they are afraid!

"Everyone, rise! I don't blame you. Quickly collect the bodies of the dead and give them a proper burial. Also, provide each family with a pension of three thousand taels of silver. Take good care of their wives, children, and elderly parents!"

After explaining everything, Bai Xinghe went straight to his adoptive father's study to verify his deductions and conjectures.

He rummaged through boxes and cabinets for a long time before finally finding a military operation map.

Outsiders may not know, but as Bai Tianque's only heir, he knows very well.

During the day, whenever they marched or fought, they would leave behind detailed deployment maps.

As an undefeated war god, he couldn't believe that his adoptive father had really lost this battle.

It's even more impossible for him to betray his country, based on the memories he's merged with, combined with his understanding of war from before his rebirth.

Looking at the marching and combat map again, Bai Xinghe quickly came to a surprising conclusion!

My cheap father was definitely not out of supplies, and he would never have defected to the enemy. It was all a scheme!

It was to lull the enemy into a false sense of security and to create an opportunity for a desperate counterattack!

It's just that the acting was too realistic, and the back-and-forth communication of messages in ancient times was too slow.

Furthermore, political enemies, led by Prime Minister Lee Tae-beok, secretly instigated the spread of rumors!

"Father, oh Father, my life, and the lives of hundreds more in the Marquis's mansion, are all tied to you!"

After carefully putting away the military operation map, Bai Xinghe sighed.

Having just arrived, if his father is really as rumored, then he would be finished after castrating Li Yuan and beating the princess.

After confirming that this was all part of his father's plan for a silent counterattack, Bai Xinghe rested in his study.

He needed to rest well, because tomorrow he was going to present Zhao Feishuang with a shocking gift in front of all the civil and military officials during the morning court session!

.......

The next day, early in the morning

Meanwhile, in the Prime Minister's residence.

The current Prime Minister, Li Taibei, had a livid face, and a strong killing intent surged into the sky.

Li Yuan was his only son, and now that he has become a eunuch, it means that the Li family line has ended!

He secretly wished he could immediately lead his armored soldiers to slaughter the entire Zhenguo Marquis's mansion, leaving no one alive!

But as the prime minister, he knew that without the emperor's decree, he could not act on his own initiative!

"Lord Li, Her Highness the Eldest Princess has sent a message inviting you to the palace immediately for an audience with the Emperor. This morning at court, she will plead with His Majesty to issue an edict to exterminate the entire Zhenguo Marquis's clan, nine generations removed, to avenge the young master!"

A servant from the Prime Minister's residence whispered a reminder.

Li Taibei remained silent, his eyes cold as he looked at his servant.

"Pass down the order: anyone who dares to reveal that Li Yuan has been castrated will be executed without mercy!"

......

Great Zhao Palace

As the appointed time approached, all the civil and military officials arrived for the morning court session.

When they saw Li Taibei arrive with a livid face and murderous intent.

Many ministers went over to express their concern, but several military officers were all smiles, gloating.

They had all heard about Li Yuan being injured by Bai Xinghe.

"Lord Li, during the morning court session later, we will certainly seek justice for your son!"

"Lord Li, we will certainly implore His Majesty to issue an edict to exterminate the Bai family, including their entire clan!"

Li Taibei remained silent, his fists clenched tightly, his expression dark and somewhat frightening.

He was the leader of the civil officials, but many military generals did not respect him and mostly supported Bai Tianque.

"I always said a tiger father begets no dog son! How could General Bai's son really be such a coward? This is truly satisfying, haha!"

"Don't be too happy yet. Rumors are flying everywhere. The situation is very unfavorable for General Bai, and Li Taibei is ruthless; he will definitely retaliate against Young Master Bai!"

"That's right, no matter what, we must protect General Bai's only bloodline!"

Several military officers glanced at Li Taibei, then gathered together to discuss the matter in secret.

"His Majesty has arrived!"

Just then, the eunuch's shouts came from ahead.

Immediately, all the civil and military officials straightened up and walked into the golden hall.
