The Dingbei Army covered their noses and mouths one by one.

However, people continued to fall one by one.

Xiao Jingye witnessed this scene and felt dizzy.

Soon after, his body swayed violently.

“Master Yun…” A nearby officer reached out to support him but ended up collapsing before he could help.

Xiao Jingye realized he was poisoned too. He quickly took out a vial and consumed the pills inside.

The heavy and weak feeling gradually dissipated.

However, he was the only one with the antidote, and he only had three pills, all of which were obtained at a high price by his royal father. They couldn’t save the over twenty thousand Dingbei Army soldiers.

With resentment in his eyes, he glared at the several figures on the city tower.

At this moment, he had no idea that all of this was orchestrated by Gu Qingluan. If he knew that Gu Qingluan had ruined his plans again, how would he feel?

Gu Qingluan was oblivious to his thoughts. For her, those who offended her needed to be prepared for misfortune.

If the Dingbei Army hadn’t posed as a threat to her, she might not have intervened in today’s battle.

Blame it on the Dingbei Army for provoking her.

As the Dingbei Army fell, a minor assassination attempt unfolded on the city tower.

The rewards proposed by Xiao Jingye were tempting to some of the Imperial Guards.

Of course, these individuals didn’t even touch the clothes of Qitian You and Gu Qingluan before being subdued.

Qitian You deeply despised these opportunistic individuals.

Gu Qingluan remained calm. “The enemy has helped us identify those with ill intentions. It saves us from being stabbed in the back later.”

Qitian You found her reasoning sensible, and his expression returned to normal. “Miss Gu, you always think things through.”

Gu Qingluan smiled and looked at the fallen Xiao Jingye. “I’ll leave the rest to you. I’m going to help Liu Meng.”

Liu Meng was preparing a sedative and treating the wounded.

With the enemy no longer a significant threat, Gu Qingluan didn’t want to waste time on them. Instead, she hoped to save more lives by assisting others.

The South Gate was secured, and the Imperial decree for the North Gate had already been delivered.

Upon hearing the content of the decree, Chen Chong and his comrades were deeply moved, feeling deceived and harboring resentment toward Duke Dingbei.

They immediately surrendered.

As for the Dingbei Army at the East and West Gates, upon learning of the situation at the North and South Gates, they lost their will to fight. Before long, they surrendered as well.

After all, the Dingbei Army had been deceived by Duke Dingbei and didn’t consider themselves rebels.

Now that they knew the truth, surrender was their only chance for survival.

The outcome of this decisive battle was unexpected for everyone.

The hundred thousand Imperial Guards not only defended Tianjing City but also swiftly concluded the war, capturing the leader of the Dingbei Army. This achievement would undoubtedly leave a glorious mark in history.

Amidst the jubilation of the entire city, Xiao Jingye was perhaps the most resentful person.

He was escorted into the city by the Imperial Guards, and his mask was removed, revealing a face that took everyone by surprise.

He appeared very young, looking like he was in his late teens, resembling a young man.

At this moment, that face seemed to have swallowed something unpleasant, making it very unattractive.

“Miss Gu is here!”

Someone shouted, and the crowd automatically made way.

Xiao Jingye immediately lifted his head and glared in that direction.

Gu Qingluan, with her long strides, walked over at a leisurely pace.

“I heard you wanted to see me.”

“Gu Qingluan! The Chengyuan Kingdom didn’t treat you well. Do you remember when the Gu family abandoned you, and Fifth Prince canceled your engagement? Have you forgotten all that? Now you’re actually helping the Chengyuan Kingdom. Don’t you have any pride left? Don’t you hate them anymore? If 1 were you, 1 would leave Chengyuan Kingdom and go to Dingyang Country! Gain their support, come back, and crush Chengyuan, making those who once bullied you suffer a fate worse than death!”

The people around were all members of the Tianjing City Imperial Guards. They were so furious at Xiao Jingye’s words that their lungs felt like they were about to explode.

This guy was blatantly trying to steal Gu Qingluan’s favor in such a shameless

manner!
