Chapter 598

After a while, the smoke below gradually dissipated, but the air still smelled of sulfur.

Most of the people in black who were still fighting before had already died, and the remaining ones who were still struggling obviously all died soon.

Even if they are alive now, they will be killed by Gu Jinfeng's people soon.

After coming down from the tree with Suqin in his arms, Gu Jinfeng let go of Suqin, "Princess An, please forgive me for offending you just now."

"Fifth Prince, what you used just now was gunpowder?" Looking at the mess on the ground, Su Qin held back the nausea in his heart and asked Gu Jinfeng in front of him.

"Gunpowder? What's that?" Gu Jinfeng looked puzzled, and Su Qin reckoned that it was a name he knew, which was different from theirs.

"That's what I read in the book. It is said that it can make a huge noise and kill people. It is extremely harmful."

There were not many complete bodies on the ground, which were obviously caused by the explosion just now. Suqin turned away and couldn't bear to look again.

Looking at Su Qin's appearance, Gu Jinfeng knew that she was not used to such a scene, not to mention her, even he felt unable to adapt.

"Princess An, let's talk over there." She pointed to the other side of the forest. The distance was not far away, but at least there was no mess on the ground, and there was no disgusting smell.

In response, Suqin and Gu Jinfeng walked into the woods, followed by Qingzhu and Qingsong. After all, they wanted to protect Suqin's safety.

"The thing I used just now was obtained by accident. I don't know what it is called. I only know that this thing is extremely lethal."

"The guards who came with Fang before are all dead soldiers. They have no family members, only themselves. Those things are all on their bodies. That's why I will let Fang do it when their casualties are serious."

If it is possible, Gu Jinfeng doesn't want to do this. After all, he is a life. He is not a cold-blooded person. Although these people are said to be dead soldiers, they have followed him for many years. This time, if it is not to compete with Gu Jinyu's people , he will never enable them.

After hearing Gu Jinfeng's explanation, Su Qin felt very guilty. If it wasn't for himself, they wouldn't have to sacrifice themselves like this.

"You don't have to blame yourself. I promised to send you to Kyoto. I am responsible for this matter. If you want to blame, let them blame me."

Seemingly seeing Su Qin's thoughts, Gu Jinfeng comforted her, "You still have injuries on your body, don't worry about it, take a rest first, and I'll follow everyone to deal with it."

"I'll go too." Although Gu Jinfeng said that, the reason was still because of her. Now that they collected the corpses for them, how could Suqin just watch?

"Can you bear it?" Not to mention the smell of sulfur, but the smell after the explosion and the tragedy on the ground are not acceptable to ordinary people.

"It's okay." Shaking his head, Su Qin's expression was very firm, "Although you comforted me, they died because of me. If I still despise their bodies, it would be too bad."

What Su Qin said made Gu Jinfeng a little surprised. She was indeed different from those women, but it was a pity that he did not meet her earlier.

"Since you insist, let's go together. After all, you are injured. If you can't hold on, the brothers won't blame you."

In response, Su Qin followed behind Gu Jinfeng and walked towards the wreckage on the ground.

Because of the fierceness of the gunpowder, there were almost no complete corpses on the ground, but because of the different clothes they were wearing, they could barely be identified.

For three whole hours, everyone was packing up the bodies of the guards, some were in charge of carrying them, some were in charge of digging pits, and some were in charge of cleaning them up.

Finally, all the corpses were buried. Although they were buried in one place, there was no wilderness of violent corpses.

"Let's deal with the rest of the killers together. After all, they are from my country of Jin."

After dealing with the dead guards, Gu Jinfeng looked at the corpses on the ground and gave instructions to the remaining guards.

After all, they were enemies before, so even if Gu Jinfeng gave orders, everyone would not deal with it the same way as before. Although they also dug a hole and buried it, they just threw it in the hole at will, not at all like before. Be careful carefulness.

Everyone was like this, but Gu Jinfeng didn't say anything, and of course there was no need to say anything. It was their kindness to bury the enemy's corpse.

Everything was done properly, the sun was already westward, Gu Jinfeng calculated the time and arrived at the next town, if he was on his way now, it would take more than an hour to arrive.

When I rushed here yesterday, it was too late, so I didn't continue my journey. Today, such a thing happened in the forest, and I couldn't even take a rest.

"Are you okay?" Looking at Su Qin, Gu Jinfeng asked with concern, Su Qin shook his head, indicating that he was fine.

"Well, let's continue on our way and try to get to the town ahead as soon as possible, and rest in the town tonight."

Nodding his head, Gu Jinfeng got on his horse and gave instructions to the crowd. Everyone responded, and they all got on their horses and rushed towards the next town together with Gu Jinfeng and Su Qin.

The forest was quiet again. If it wasn't for the scorched blackness on the ground and the faint smell of sulfur, no one would have thought of what happened here before...

…………

"King An, I have found out everything." After entering the house from the outside, Gu Jinyang sat on a chair and asked someone to make a cup of tea before he spoke.

Hearing what Gu Jinyang said, Yunlin put down the letter in his hand, looked towards him, and waited for him to speak again.

"Father's health has been bad lately. He was coughing continuously yesterday morning. Recently, the Yan Kingdom was ready to move and provoked our Jin Kingdom many times. When discussing this matter yesterday, Father suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma. He is still in a coma until now."

"After the father fainted, the third brother ordered people to block the palace, and then announced that he would temporarily help the father to act as an agent of the government. Originally, there were ministers in the court who disagreed. After all, there was no father's will. The third brother also It's not the crown prince, how could he have imagined that the Empress would actually support Brother Sanhuang, plus the officials in the court who supported him, now the harem and the court are all in the hands of Brother Sanhuang."

Telling all the things he knew, Gu Jinyang frowned, "The empress was also neutral before, who knew that this time she would actually help Brother San Huang."

"I said earlier that everyone has weaknesses. If Gu Jinyu catches the queen's weakness, she can only let him handle it."

After listening to Gu Jinyang's words, Yunlin said calmly.

"Let's wait and see. Although the palace is sealed off, we still have to go to court in the morning. If we find a way to sneak in and have a look, everything will be clear."
