Yelv Nanyan said, “On the way here, I asked the North Prince, and he said each month he will grant one hundred of you the opportunity to return home to visit your families. However, you’ll have to wait until half a year has passed, but the North Prince won’t restrict your relatives from actively visiting you.”

Upon hearing these words, the captives from the Barbarian Tribe became incredibly excited. They all had thought they would never be able to leave North City or see their relatives again, but unexpectedly, the North Prince was willing to let their relatives visit them.

If that was the case, it probably wouldn’t be long before they could see their relatives. 𝒩eew updates 𝒂t n𝒐vel/bi𝒏(.)com

However, it quickly dawned on some of the Barbarian Tribe captives that they owed this treatment to the sacrifices of their queen.

At that moment, a captive asked, “Queen Yelv, is this a condition you secured by agreeing to marry the North Prince?”

Just as Yelv Nanyan was about to answer, she saw the faces of the Barbarian Tribe captives all intently staring at her, and she immediately fell silent. In reality, this had little to do with her, as she now had no bargaining power in the presence of Lu Chen.

Seeing Yelv Nanyan’s silence, the captives from the Barbarian Tribe took it as her default agreement.

Instantly, the captives held even greater gratitude toward Yelv Nanyan, and her standing in their hearts rose yet another notch.

Just then, another captive from the Barbarian Tribe suddenly asked, “Queen Yelv, does this mean both you and the princess are to marry the North Prince?” Yelv Nanyananswered, “Yes.”

The captive continued, “Then, the princess will become the North Prince’s woman? If I tell the North Prince something about the princess’s mother, would that be considered a meritorious deed?”

Upon hearing the captive’s words, Xiao Wenyao was taken aback for a moment, then immediately said, “Something about my mother? What is it?”

The captive said, “Replying to the princess, back then, your mother was poisoned to death by the Sky Wolf King, and several of his followers, including myself, are aware of this matter.”

Although the Sky Wolf King was already dead, Xiao Wenyao was still alive, and was about to become the North Prince’s woman. If she could be told of some disgraceful acts the Sky Wolf King had committed and grow to hate him, it would, to some extent, be helping the North Prince.

After all, the North Prince was Xiao Wenyao’s father’s sworn enemy. If Xiao Wenyao bore no hatred for the Sky Wolf King, it wouldn’t be good for the North Prince, and Xiao Wenyao might not wholeheartedly join the North Prince Mansion.

But if Xiao Wenyao learned her mother was killed by the Sky Wolf King, it was very likely she would no longer care about her father’s death at the hands of the North Prince, and it would be much easier for her to wholeheartedly join the North Prince Mansion.

At that moment, another captive from the Barbarian Tribe spoke up, “Princess, I am also aware of this, and what’s more, I know that the poison used against your mother was personally administered by the Sky Wolf King!”

At these words, Xiao Wenyao’s complexion instantly turned deathly pale.

She had long heard this suspicion from her uncle, but it was after all just speculation without evidence. She hadn’t expected that, after her father’s death, his former followers would stand up as witnesses.

Her mother had indeed been poisoned by her own father!

With that thought, Xiao Wenyao couldn’t help but shudder.

Her father’s heart was so malicious!

To take another queen, he didn’t hesitate to poison the wife who had always been by his side.

If it weren’t for her mother convincing her uncle to step down back then, her father might not have been able to become the king of the Barbarian Tribe. Yet, the first thing he did after becoming the Sky Wolf King was to poison her mother.

Initially, Xiao Wenyao had felt a hint of sorrow over Xiao Hongbo’s death, as he was her biological father and they were related by blood.

But after hearing the revelations of her father’s former subordinates, the last bit of kinship she felt for Xiao Hongbo vanished. She merely thought that Xiao Hongbo deserved to be killed by the North Prince—it was as if the North Prince had avenged her mother’s death for her.

Meanwhile, Lu Chen approached from a distance. Seeing Xiao Wenyao’s tears streaming down onto the ground, he said with a smile, “What’s the matter, little princess, is your heart aching for the suffering of your tribal warriors?” Xiao Wenyao did not reply, merely wiping away her tears continuously. At that time, Yelv Nanyan spoke up from her side, “Prince, a few former subordinates of the Sky Wolf King just confessed to Yaoyao that he had poisoned Yaoyao’s mother to death.”

Upon hearing Yelv Nanyan’s words, Lu Chen was taken aback. He had already heard about this matter in the intelligence collected by Wu Yuan, but he had only regarded it as a tidbit of gossip—it didn’t have much to do with him after all.

But seeing Xiao Wenyao crying so heartbrokenly, she must have had an extremely close relationship with her mother.

In that case, did he help Xiao Wenyao avenge her mother’s death?

Thinking of this, Lu Chen glanced at Xiao Wenyao’s favorability and found that it had indeed increased by quite a lot, almost reaching eighty.

At that moment, Lu Chen suddenly thought of something, then he turned to the captive Barbarian Tribe members and said, “The Sky Wolf King, for his own ambition, did not even spare his wife’s life. Not only did he kill his own wife, he also led you to North City to pillage and slaughter, committing so many sins.” “Since some of you were once the Sky Wolf King’s subordinates, you must know even more about the wrongs he committed. As long as you stand forward and reveal all his crimes, I will give you a chance to return home and visit your families!”

The war had ended; there had to be a war criminal onto whom all the blame could be directed. This would facilitate Lu Chen’s conquest of the entire Sky Wolf King’s tribe.

By then, the people of the Sky Wolf King’s tribe would only think that it was their king’s fault. Their king, driven by his own ambition, had led the entire tribe into an abyss.

Compared to the Sky Wolf King, it was North Prince who was truly good to them. North Prince didn’t just refrain from killing them; he also gave them a chance to redeem themselves, and he even relocated their families to North City.

As time passed, these Barbarian Tribe members would only grow to hate the Sky Wolf King more and more.

Lu Chen thought to himself that since the Sky Wolf King was already dead, let him serve a purpose one last time.

Just as Lu Chen had anticipated, as soon as he finished speaking, a Barbarian Tribe captive stood up and said, “I know that the Sky Wolf King would secretly imprison Great Sum women he had looted and torture them in a tent! He pretended to want to marry the Queen, claiming he loved her, but in truth he only coveted her beauty and the power she wielded. He was scum!”

Upon hearing the captive’s words, Lu Chen frowned slightly, feeling as if he had been implicated. Was it his imagination?

However, since the captive was talking about the Sky Wolf King, Lu Chen did not pay too much attention to it.

Once one came forward, others followed. Quickly another Barbarian Tribe soldier stood up and said, “I know that Xiao Hongbo, to become the chieftain of our tribe, secretly murdered an elder who opposed him, and even cooked and ate the elder’s entrails. Xiao Hongbo is a demon!”

“I know…”

“I also know…”

For a time, the captive Barbarian Tribe members stood up one after another, exposing the crimes Xiao Hongbo had committed. At first, their statements were plausible, but as they continued, some began to fabricate outrageous tales.

Such as Xiao Hongbo enjoying eating children, having relations with men, and even a taste for excrement came up.

This was exactly the effect Lu Chen wanted. After all, the more the Sky Wolf King was despised by members of his tribe, the easier it would be for the Barbarian Tribe captives to submit to North City.

When it felt about right, Lu Chen turned to Qin Yushan and said, “Commander Qin, later on have someone list all of the Sky Wolf King Xiao Hongbo’s crimes and then issue a proclamation to be distributed throughout all the cities in North City.”

Qin Yushan immediately said, “Yes, Prince.”

Having said this, Lu Chen looked at Yelv Nanyan and said, “Queen Yelv, it should be enough by now, we can head back.”

Yelv Nanyan glanced at the Barbarian Tribe captives present, then looked at Xiao Wenyao, who was in a state of stupor and sighed softly, “Yes, Prince.” Shortly afterwards, they returned to the Prince’s Mansion.

After Yelv Nanyan returned to the Prince’s Mansion, she sat on the wooden stool in her room, gazing out of the window at the courtyard, lost in thought. Just then, the voice of a maid from the Prince’s Mansion came from outside the courtyard.

“My respects to the Prince!”

Hearing the maid’s voice, Yelv Nanyan was momentarily taken aback, then she quickly stood up. Just as she did so, Lu Chen pushed the door and entered the room.
