You Zhao and You Mingyu both wore expressions of great satisfaction, as if high-ranking official positions and generous salaries were already within reach, and that they would live in a grand mansion in the capital and be flattered wherever they went.
Seeing their smug expressions, Nangong Wu remained silent, letting them indulge in their daydreams for a while longer.
She also wanted to see what choice Su Siyan would make.
"You Zhao, so you were colluding with that traitor Nangong Xun?" Su Siyan was shocked and furious.
"Nangong Xun is of immoral character, has murdered people, embezzled the national treasury, and only knows how to indulge in pleasure, never caring about the suffering of the people. Now he has been imprisoned by His Majesty in Zongshangsi, and you still dare to dream of supporting such a wicked person to sit on the throne?"
"Su Siyan, don't be ungrateful." You Zhao's face suddenly turned ferocious. "You only have two choices now: one, kill these people for me; two, die with them."
"You Zhao, you traitor!" Su Siyan drew his sword and pointed it at You Zhao. "Even if I, Su Siyan, die, I will never associate with a shameless scoundrel like you!"
"You're asking for death! Quickly, kill them all!" You Zhao shouted as he hid in the crowd.
Suddenly, a loud "bang!" was heard.
Everyone was stunned, not knowing what had happened.
It was Nangong Wu who made the move, killing You Mingyu with a single shot. A bloody hole appeared on You Mingyu's forehead, and her eyes were wide open.
"Yu'er!" You Zhao caught the fallen You Mingyu, his eyes wide with fury.
"Nangong Wu, you vile woman, how dare you kill my Yu'er!"
Nangong Wu lowered her sleeve, covering the gun in her hand. "You Zhao, didn't you want to kill me? Then I'll let you taste the bitterness of a white-haired man burying a black-haired man."
"Men! Kill them all at all costs!" You Zhao roared angrily.
A large number of people poured in from outside, each holding a bow and arrow, the arrowheads gleaming coldly and pointed at the few people standing at the door.
The rooftops of the main house, the east and west wing rooms, and the courtyard walls were all filled with people, each with a bow and arrow drawn, completely surrounding the courtyard.
Su Siyan raised his sword and stood in front of Nangong Wu, saying, "Your Highness, you rush out first, and I will cover your retreat."
Fu Daniu was terrified, but he still mustered the courage to ask, "Your Highness, I'll carry the old prince on my back, we'll fight our way out..."
"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat..." A burst of intense gunfire rang out.
Nangong Wu and Beichen Yan made their move at the same time.
Nangong Wu was holding a Gatling gun, and bullets sprayed out like a rainstorm, sweeping through the people in the courtyard.
Bei Chenyan was carrying a machine gun and was firing at the people on the courtyard wall. The two of them were shooting as they walked out, their coordination was excellent.
In the blink of an eye, all the people who were standing fell down, and those on the roof of the main house, seeing that things were not going well, turned around and tried to run away.
"Go after them." Nangong Wu handed Bei Chenyan another machine gun.
Bei Chenyan dropped the machine gun he was holding, which was already empty, took hers, leaped onto the roof, and began firing at the people running ahead.
Even after he ran out of bullets, two of them still managed to escape, so he drew his sword and gave chase.
His lightness skill was so good that no one could escape his grasp.
In the small courtyard, Su Siyan stood there dumbfounded, his eyes wide open, staring at the large knife in his hand. He hadn't even made a move yet, and everyone was already dead.
There were about three hundred people, and they killed them all in the blink of an eye. How did they do that?
If he were bewitched and misled by You Zhao's words, losing his true self, wouldn't he now be one of these corpses?
Thinking about this, cold sweat broke out on my back.
Fu Daniu finally saw the weapons in their hands and was shocked.
Nangong Wu put down the Gatling gun, glanced at the two of them, and asked, "What are you two standing there for?"
Su Siyan then came to his senses, swallowed hard, and said, "Your Highness..."
"Get me the photos of You Zhao." Nangong Wu pointed to a pile of corpses.
She knew that You Zhao was not dead. She had just seen him pull the clerk next to him to shield him, and then lie down and pretend to be dead.
"Yes!" Su Siyan walked to the spot where You Zhao had just stood and began to pry open the corpses one by one.
Seeing You Zhao lying there pretending to be dead, but his body was trembling.
"Damn corrupt official!" Su Siyan grabbed the man and dragged him to Nangong Wu's feet.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me..." You Zhao kowtowed to Nangong Wu with a series of loud thuds.
"Dislocate his tendons and ligaments first," Nangong Wu ordered.
Su Siyan kicked You Zhao to the ground and brandished his sword a few times.
"Aaaaah..." You Zhao let out a bloodcurdling scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"Do you have any capable people at your disposal?" Nangong Wu asked him.
"Yes, there were a few who were sworn brothers, but they all chose You Zhao just now, and there are still some people at the city gate," Su Siyan replied.
"Then go and bring in some people to take control of this government office. Until the imperial court sends someone, you will temporarily manage Golden Bull City," Nangong Wu ordered him.
"This subordinate obeys!" Su Siyan bowed and withdrew.
As soon as Su Siyan left, Bei Chenyan returned, carrying someone in his hand, and threw him next to You Zhao.
"Ouch..." Mu screamed in pain.
"Say it again and I'll cut your tongue out." Fu Daniu picked up a sword and pointed it at Mu's throat.
Mu was so frightened that her body trembled, and she scrambled to her feet.
But when she saw the corpses all over the ground, she screamed in terror.
Nangong Wu took out two "March Half" poison pills and handed them to Fu Daniu, saying, "Feed them these."
"Alright!" Fu Daniu happily accepted the poison pill.
He figured that the Prince of Zhenyuan must have trusted him to ask him for the antidote later.
Nangong Wu raised her hand and mentally collected the gun barrels and spent cartridge cases scattered on the ground into her spatial storage.
Then he went back to the room to see his father, and sat on the bed with a worried look on his face.
"Father, everything is alright now. You should get some rest. Once we've finished dealing with things here, we'll head back to the capital."
Huo Jing nodded, asked no further questions, and closed his eyes again.
Nangong Wu went out again.
Once we return to the Prince's residence, we'll give him another full-body checkup.
She pulled out a dagger and began digging bullets out of the corpse.
Bei Chenyan and Fu Daniu also stepped in to help.
"If there are any that aren't quite dead yet, finish them off," Nangong Wu said to Da Niu.
"Understood." Fu Daniu is no longer so afraid of corpses.
At this moment, Mu discovered You Mingyu among the pile of corpses and let out a shrill scream, "My Yu'er, you heartless bastards, you actually killed my Yu'er..."
"It's too noisy!" Nangong Wu frowned.
Bei Chenyan immediately said, "Fu Daniu, pull out her tongue."
"Yes," Fu Daniu replied, raising his sword.
After a while, the annoying crying stopped.
After they finished digging out the bullets, Su Siyan returned with two hundred men and took control of the entire government office. You Zhao, his wives, concubines, and children were all imprisoned and awaited the court's judgment.
Finally, the bodies were removed from the yard.
Nangong Wu returned to her room and found that her father was already asleep.
Bei Chenyan walked to her side. "Let's go to the backyard to dig for gold now. I've already prepared the tools."
Nangong Wu nodded, "Okay, the two of us will go dig."
If the soldiers were to help dig, the money would be exposed, and their efforts would be wasted if it were handed over to the imperial court.
