Chapter 888 - 418: Surrender! Rescue Zhi Ning and her child!_2
Gui Xingfu displayed a helpless smile and said, "But at the Fenglei Fort Defense Line, my lord has already achieved a great victory, and Zhi Li has already fled in defeat."
"Ha ha ha..." Earl Chu Ye laughed heartily and said, "Gui Xingfu, do you really think I’m a fool? Zhi Li His Highness has an army of nearly forty-five million, and although Suo Lun’s iron cannons are formidable, they have one fatal flaw: the firing rate is too slow. Before even two volleys can be completed, the great army of Zhi Li His Highness has already charged up to the city walls! Most importantly, if Suo Lun was not on the brink of destruction, why would he send you to persuade me to surrender? If he had won, he should be waiting for me to seek his favor!"
Gui Xingfu said, "Every word I say is true. Why doesn’t Earl Chu Ye believe me?"
Earl Chu Ye laughed even more exaggeratedly, then clutching his stomach, he laughed and said, "If this is true, then I will crawl around on the ground like a dog and bark ten times!"
Gui Xingfu sighed and said, "Since your Excellency does not believe, there’s nothing I can do. I can only relay your original words to Lord Suo Lun and take my leave!"
"Wait!" Earl Chu Ye said, "Gui Xingfu, you’re not leaving. As a lord of the kingdom, you have actually betrayed Zhi Li His Highness and conspired with Suo Lun, which is utterly shameless. Now that you’ve fallen into my hands, don’t even think about going back!"
Then, with a wave of his hand, Earl Chu Ye immediately had dozens of Samurai come forward, thoroughly capturing Gui Xingfu and imprisoning him in the dungeon of the castle!
...
That evening, while Earl Chu Ye once again favored a mother-daughter pair in Linhai City, he couldn’t help but think of Gui Xingfu’s words and still found them utterly ridiculous and laughable!
