Liu Zimo knew exactly where Liu Zhengtang wanted to go, so he immediately stood up to block his way and said to Liu Zhengtang, "Father, that woman is no longer the same Aunt Zhao. If you go over there and she hurts you, how will I explain to Fufeng and Yue'er when they come back?"

Liu Zhengtang raised his hand to signal Liu Zimo not to continue talking. He sighed softly, "Some things should be resolved. This is all the sin that father committed. I have to solve it myself."

After saying that, he raised his hand and gently patted Liu Zimo's shoulder: "Take good care of the Liu Mansion. I will go to help Fu Feng. That woman is as venomous as a scorpion and full of tricks. Fu Feng is no match for her. I can't let Fu Feng get into trouble."

Seeing him like this, Liu Zimo was worried, but he didn't say anything more. He knew his father's temper and he always kept his word.

I couldn't stop him, so I could only remind him with concern: "Be careful and come back safely."

Liu Zhengtang walked outside with big strides.

When they arrived outside Dai's courtyard, they heard the sound of fighting coming from inside. Liu Zhengtang frowned, took the token of love that Zhao Wanyan had given him, and entered the secret passage with his Qingling sword.

When he went in, he saw several men from Northern Xinjiang lying on the ground.

Zhao Wanyan also suffered some injuries.

Zhao Wanyan was the first to see Liu Zhengtang's figure. Her eyes fell on the long sword in Liu Zhengtang's hand, and a complicated expression flashed in her eyes.

"What are you doing here?" Zhao Wanyan asked with a hint of urgency.

Hearing the voice, Liu Fufeng looked to his side and saw Liu Zhengtang holding a sword and coming to his side.

Liu Zhengtang said to Zhao Wanyan with a dark face, "Why are you so stubborn? You have to provoke a war between Northern Frontier and Kyoto. Do you want to see the two countries go to war and end up with the people of both countries living in misery and being displaced?"

For Zhao Wanyan, this man in front of her was one that she truly loved. If Xie Jingrui had not harmed Liu Yunni like that, she would not have made up her mind to help Beijiang do those things.

She just couldn't accept that she had worked so hard for the Liu family, but in the end, Liu Zhengtang was unwilling to even protect their children.

Zhao Wanyan angrily scolded Liu Zhengtang, "You forced me to do all this. I am also a woman. I want to live a stable life of taking care of my husband and children. If I don't live like this, I will be ashamed every day and be treated like a rat crossing the street."

"It's you. Why didn't you save Yun'er? You let Yun'er be bullied by others and tortured every day. She loves to be clean, but she has to be bullied by those men every day."

The more Zhao Wanyan spoke, the more agitated she became. If you hadn't been unwilling to rescue Yun'er, we wouldn't have activated the connection with Northern Xinjiang now when we had no other choice.

"What did Yun'er do wrong? She just wanted to become a real crown princess. She just lied to Xie Jingrui that the child was hers and his. She only killed her own child. As for Xie Wenhua, Yun'er was ruthless to him just to help him become successful. Look at how well he is being raised by Yun'er. What did Yun'er do wrong?"

"It's all your fault. You forced me into this desperate situation, Liu Zhengtang. You are not a human being. You can't even protect your own woman and children. How dare you come here and tell me some great truths?"

Liu Zhengtang felt a little guilty when listening to what Zhao Wanyan said.

However, Zhao Wanyan still doesn’t understand the mistakes they made, and Liu Zhengtang’s eyes are full of disappointment.

Liu Zhengtang's voice became stern: "Yun'er became like that because we didn't discipline her well. Family affairs shouldn't involve so many families. You burned so many children to death, but you didn't mention these crimes."

"So what?" Zhao Wanyan said indifferently.

Zhao Wanyan chuckled, her eyes fell on Liu Zhengtang's face again and asked, "This is just the beginning. Since you feel sorry for the people, why don't you use the lives of all the people in the Liu Mansion as compensation? In this way, I will believe that you are truly merciful. What do you think?"

Liu Zhengtang tightened his grip on the sword and began to swing the sword towards Zhao Wanyan.

"You think you can kill me?" Zhao Wanyan sneered and took up her sword to resist.

"Clang, dang..." The sword lights flashed everywhere.

The last man in Northern Xinjiang has fallen.

Zhao Wanyan was still fighting hard. Liu Zhengtang hadn't practiced sword for a long time. After a few rounds, he began to breathe heavily.

When he was not paying attention, Zhao Wanyan's sword was against Liu Zhengtang's neck, her eyes cold.

No one dared to move for a moment.

Zhao Wanyan raised her lips with a mocking sneer: "Liu Zhengtang didn't expect that the former general can't even beat a woman now."

Liu Fufeng stared at Zhao Wanyan and tried to step forward to rescue her.

Zhao Wanyan cast a sharp gaze on Liu Fufeng and shouted, "Stand back. If anyone dares to take another step forward, I will drag him along with me."

As she spoke, she pressed the sword against Liu Zhengtang's neck with even more force.

Bright red blood immediately oozed from Liu Zhengtang's neck.

Since he came in, he had no intention of leaving here alive.

Liu Zhengtang smiled and said to Liu Fufeng, "Don't worry about me. Just throw the gunpowder that the prince gave you in. I am already satisfied to have lived until now."

Zhao Wanyan's eyes widened when she heard what Liu Zhengtang said, and she angrily said to Liu Zhengtang: "Do you want to die?"

Liu Zhengtang smiled and said, "In the matter of Yun'er, it is true that I, as a father, failed to protect you and your daughter, and you have been wronged. However, every wrong has its perpetrator. Since you want revenge, then use my life to pay for it. I will accompany you on the journey, so you won't be alone on the road to the underworld."

Zhao Wanyan's hand holding the dagger trembled slightly. She looked at Liu Zhengtang with complicated eyes. All she wanted was an explanation.

Then, Liu Zhengtang continued, "I didn't know about Yun'er's situation at the time. Now that things have come to this, you should let go of your obsession."

Zhao Wanyan lowered the hand holding the dagger slightly.

Seeing this, one of the secret guards took out the thing in his hand and quickly threw it into Zhao Wanyan's hand.

"Bang!" The sword in Zhao Wanyan's hand was knocked down. She frowned and covered her hand in pain.

Seeing this, Liu Fufeng immediately stepped forward and pinned Zhao Wanyan to the ground.

Zhao Wanyan was already tired of living a life of hiding for some time.

now.

She did not resist, but looked up in the direction of Liu Zhengtang and said, "Did you say those words to me just now from your heart?"

Liu Zhengtang nodded: "If you tell me even a single lie, I, Liu Zhengtang, will die a miserable death."

Zhao Wanyan finally smiled. She moved her mouth and said, "I only have one request. Let Yun'er go. Let Xie Jingrui let her go. Send her to Kyoto. She won't be a danger to anyone. I am willing to die to apologize for my crime."

Liu Zhengtang looked at Zhao Wanyan's face and nodded in agreement: "Okay."
