Mother, I have returned to the throne.

Chapter 424 Capturing General Xu

Seeing the army turning against us.

A hint of indifference then appeared in Murong Lie's eyes.

He slowly turned his head and looked at the soldiers who had followed Xu Tian before.

He said in a cold voice: "It has come to this, do you still want to continue down this path?"

"Don't you even think about what the situation is? Are you really going to commit suicide?"

"For the sake of your respective masters, if you turn back now, neither I nor the prince will hold you accountable!"

"However, if you still don't repent, I'm afraid that in the end, there will only be death!"

As soon as Murong Lie said this, everyone was interested.

What they were most worried about before was that after handing over the prince and the deputy general, they would be killed directly.

Now that we have the guarantee, we no longer have to worry.

As long as you can survive, who would want to die?

"Don't listen to this guy's nonsense!"

"If you really let these two people go, will he let you go based on your previous offense?"

Seeing his men being bewitched, Xu Tian finally couldn't stand it anymore.

He stepped forward and said directly: "Don't worry, as long as these two people are in my hands, no one here dares to touch us!"

"They are traitors and deserve death. As long as you bring these two people to the Imperial City, Your Majesty will guarantee..."

"Xu Tian, ​​are you still not repentant?"

Murong Lie shouted, interrupting Xu Tian's words.

"Can't you see the situation clearly? You can't even leave this Zhenbei Pass today, what else do you want?"

"The only way to survive is to surrender quickly. Otherwise, today will be the day you all die!"

"Have you said enough?"

Seeing that Murong Lie was still determined to deceive him, Xu Tian shouted coldly: "Murong Lie, don't think that you can cover up your sins just by saying something so serious!"

"You colluded with the prince and attempted to rebel. How long do you think you can be so arrogant?"

"When the imperial army arrives at Zhenbei Pass, every one of you will die! You should be the one repenting, so stop talking nonsense here!"

Seeing the two arguing, Song Yuan, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

He sneered and said softly, "Xu Tian, ​​I'm very curious. What benefits did my third brother, the current Crown Prince, promise you and your son to make you so devoted to him?"

"Don't you know that doing this will only plunge the entire border into complete chaos?"

"When the barbarians invade, you will be the biggest sinners..."

"That's enough, stop spitting bloody words at me!"

Xu Tian snorted coldly and responded, "It really is just as the prince said before. You are not a good person!"

"In the beginning, you were hiding your true colors in the Imperial City, and only revealed yourself after you came to the border. Do you dare to say that you didn't have any thoughts?"

"Do you think you can overthrow your position by bribing these people?"

"I advise you to let them lay down their weapons, otherwise..."

Xu Tian didn't finish his words after all.

It turned out that even when he threatened Song Yuan, many of the soldiers behind him were already winking at each other.

At this moment, several people finally took action.

Without any warning, he pounced towards Xu Tian from behind.

Xu Tian was not paying attention for a moment and was pinned down by someone. He couldn't struggle free for a long time.

"Let me go, you bastards, let me go!"

"You all want to rebel and seek death?"

Xu Tian was furious and struggled hard, shouting and threatening.

I have to say that this young general is really capable. While speaking, he actually broke free from the restraints of his subordinates behind him, and almost broke free by holding the weight of four people.

Fortunately, others reacted quickly at the critical moment.

More soldiers surrounded Xu Tian and pinned him down, finally completely restraining him.

"Give me this guy and tie him up!"

At this point, Murong Lie had already broken free from his restraints. He looked at everyone and roared angrily.

Then he began to give orders.

"Of you all, leave one team behind to protect the prince, and the rest of you, all come with me to the General's Mansion to capture that old bastard Xu Yong!"

"I don't need protection!"

Song Yuan was now free again, and he said coldly, "I'll go with you. We must take down that old bastard named Xu!"

"Not only that, I will also ask him in person what kind of courage this guy has!"

……

In Song Yuan's opinion, the Xu family father and son were simply courting their own death.

After their guilt was confirmed, things would naturally become much easier to handle afterwards.

The moment they surrounded the General's Mansion, Xu Yong felt like he had reached the end of his rope.

Dragged down by his son, no one was willing to believe that Song Yuan was a traitor no matter how much he talked.

How long did it take General Xu to come to Zhenbei Pass from beginning to end?

How can his prestige be compared with Song Yuan's?

With the help of their silly son, the two have been completely convicted of treason.

Everyone thought that it was the prince who was behind the scenes and wanted to murder Song Yuan in order to consolidate his position.

Faced with such a one-sided situation, no one in the general's mansion dared to make the slightest move.

Faced with the aggressive crowd, he put down the butcher knife without saying a word.

Afraid of provoking the other party's hostility.

In the end, the dozen or so cautious guards around Xu Yong were completely killed by the anger of the army.

Xu Yong was also captured for this reason.

"Song Yuan, Murong Lie, you two bastards, plotting rebellion, you shall not die a good death!"

Even though he was captured, Xu Yong was still waiting with his eyes red.

He looked at Song Yuan and the other two with sharp eyes.

"Death is imminent, and I see you still won't repent!"

Seeing this, Murong Lie sneered, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, what do you think we should do with Song Yuan?"

"Simple, to prove our innocence, these two people cannot be touched!"

Song Yuan ordered in a cold voice: "Imprison them both temporarily, but remember, you must ensure their safety."

"Go back and take this father and son to the Imperial City. If the Emperor sees us, he can prove our innocence!"

For Song Yuan, killing the Xu father and son would not bring him much benefit.

It will only arouse the suspicion of His Majesty.

Rather than letting others think that he was going to kill them to silence them, it would be better to escort them directly to the imperial city.

Moreover, doing so is also an explanation to the people in Zhenbei Pass.

Let all these generals know that Song Yuan has a clear conscience about this matter!

Murong Lie was naturally aware of the involvement and nodded with a smile.

"it is good!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and ordered everyone to put the Xu father and son in jail. No matter how the two struggled, they were eventually thrown into jail.
