Chapter 582

Jian Yunling stood up abruptly, clenched her molars, and said, "You don't have to worry about it, just think about your major issues, and don't forget our deal."

The latter sentence made Yu Wenzheng's face darken, and he spoke like ice: "If you don't want to see me get angry, get out now!"

Jian Yunling opened her mouth, intending to refute, met his sinister gaze, took a step back, hesitated for a while, and finally rubbed outward: "Let's go!"

The moment she turned around, Yu Wenzheng raised his head from the document and followed Jian Yunling's back until he disappeared, his eyes suddenly became sad.

The plan went smoothly, but within a day, rumors spread in the capital, and the people either fled the capital with their families, or stockpiled supplies and stayed behind closed doors.

The rest of the patrolling troops in the suburbs of Beijing had received an order before and did not prevent the people from leaving the city. Although it was extremely risky to do so, given that Yu Wenheng's backup was cut off early, even if someone fished in troubled waters, it would not be able to play a substantial role in turning things around, so no one cared.

Five days later, King Han's army besieged the capital, and the once bustling and noisy capital of a country was as desolate as a barren city.

The city gate was unguarded, Jian Yunling and Yu Wenzheng easily entered the city, only bringing Fu Dongyun and Xiao Bai with them.

Before leaving the army, Yu Wenzheng issued a death order to all the generals, and no one was allowed to attack the city without his permission.Anyone who disturbs the people for no reason, beheaded!There are burnt and looters, beheaded!Those who disobey the military order will be killed!
With these three beheading characters in a row, a murderous aura rushed over the huge main tent.

All the generals received the order and returned to their own tents, and the four of them rode back to King Han's mansion in simple clothes.

In the blink of an eye, it has been several months since I left the capital, and I have experienced too many things in between. Now that I set foot on this land again, I feel like a lifetime away.

The streets were bleak and windy, the doors of every house were closed, and the business flags above their heads were dilapidated, swaying and lingering.

The hooves of the horses are like drums in the silent night, echoing in the empty streets.

Thick dust had accumulated in front of the gate of King Han's Mansion, dead leaves were buried in a mess, two bright yellow seals were pasted crosswise on the lacquered red door, and the huge vermilion imperial seal on it had faded to the point where the words on it had faded.

Yu Wenzheng stopped before the steps of the horse, looked up at the cracked door plaque floating in the air, and remained silent for a while, not knowing what he was thinking.

Jian Yunling sighed sadly, and said bitterly: "We finally came back."

Yu Wenzheng gave a soft "hmm" without saying anything more. With a flick of his wide sleeves, he slammed open the seal on the door, and the door slowly opened, revealing the yard without a trace of light.

The darkness engulfed those familiar houses, and under the faint moonlight, only the lush weeds could be seen swaying in the wind.

Yu Wenzheng got off his horse and strode in, followed by the other three.

There was no one in the mansion, a row of dilapidated lanterns hung under the eaves, and there were still unburned candles inside.

Fu Dongyun took one off at random, lit it up, and walked in the front to illuminate the road for Yu Wenzheng.

Walking along the long corridor, Yu Wenzheng went straight to the study without squinting.Jian Yunling followed behind, looking at the desolate King Han's Mansion, sighing infinitely.

Finally arrived at the study, Yu Wenzheng pushed open the door covered with cobwebs, splashing a layer of flying dust.

Jian Yunling was so choked that she covered her nose and coughed twice. Yu Wenzheng took the lantern from Fu Dongyun, turned his back to them, and calmly ordered: "Princess, come in with me, you two stay here."
