After losing the vest at the beginning, the female general was forced to marry the scheming prince

Chapter 186
Three days later, in the middle of the night, the army led by Qu Chu launched an attack, and the city wall of Nanshu City collapsed, and Qu Chu's army entered Nanshu City smoothly.

……

This time, Qu Chu still adopted the attitude of "don't kill if you disarm, and don't kill if you surrender" to ordinary soldiers. However, anyone who resisted stubbornly would be killed.

At dawn, the war is over.

Qu Chu looked around coldly. The soldiers who surrendered squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands. Around them were weapons and corpses thrown at will.

In the end, Nanshu was managed by Yan Qingnan for many years, and none of the generals surrendered.Of course, few of the generals survived.

All were killed.

As for the soldiers, although not many died, they were not too few.

There is no way, the generals don't surrender, and the soldiers who are usually close to the generals dare not surrender. How do you know if surrender will have a way out?

Can only resist to the end.

Those who surrendered in the end were either those who were afraid of death, or those who were not normally used, and... the rest.

Seeing all this, Qu Chu felt uncomfortable.

They were originally soldiers of the Dayu Kingdom, and their duty should be to protect the country and the people, but because of some people's ambitions, they became tools.

If possible, Qu Chu would not be willing to join such a civil war.However, a civil war has started, and due to reason and reason, all she wants to protect is the person sitting on the throne, so she can only quell this civil war as soon as possible.

"Let them clean up the battlefield first."

With one order, the generals immediately took action.

Qu Chu asked about the situation, no one had seen Yan Qingnan on the battlefield, so she frowned slightly.

"Come on, come with me to the Governor's Mansion."

……

Zinan Governor's Mansion

Qu Chu led people to the gate of the governor's mansion, and the gate was closed tightly.

Zinan Governor's Mansion is different from the Governor's Mansion Qu Chu has seen before.

The golden glazed tiles and vermilion gates are magnificent, more like a palace.

On the vermilion gate, there are a pair of pure gold lion heads, embedded between the huge golden door nails, showing the nobleness of the owner of the mansion.

Qu Chu glanced at the number of door studs, and each door was arranged in nine rows and seven rows and 63 studs in the Prince's Mansion, but the pure gold lion's head occupied the position of 16 studs, so there were 47 studs in total on each door.

Compared with the 49 doornails in the vertical and horizontal directions of the Duke's Mansion, there are two fewer doornails.

"Be smart"

Qu Chu snorted coldly in his heart, and his impression of Yan Qingnan was even worse.

According to regulations, each door of the prince's mansion has 63 copper nails, nine vertical and seven horizontal, but Yan Qingnan has no title, and the gate of the governor's mansion can only use iron nails.

But Yan Qingnan was very ambitious, he wanted to enjoy the prince's specifications, but he didn't dare to violate the rules, so he had no choice but to come up with a new style and replace the doornail with a lion's head.

The door nails did not dare to use brass, but they were unwilling to use iron nails, so they used gold, which is more precious than brass.

"Smash it open for me".

Following Qu Chu's order, the gate was brutally smashed open by soldiers.

Qu Chu stepped in, the accompanying generals followed behind, and the soldiers quickly occupied all the main roads.

The Zinan Governor's Mansion is gorgeous and extravagant, with layers of Qin bricks, Han tiles, purple pillars and golden beams, which are extremely luxurious.

This kind of decoration, not to mention that it is the only one in Southern Shu, even the Chu Palace in Yudu is not as exquisite and gorgeous.

Qu Chu turned a blind eye to all this, but the generals who came in with her were not so enlightened.

"Hey, Yan Qingnan, a son of a bitch, will enjoy the blessings. He is more eye-catching than the Chu Palace of your husband-in-law, General."

Qu Chudao: "The governor's mansion will be sealed later, and you can take whatever you fancy."

The accompanying generals stared brightly, "General, are you serious?"

Qu Chu coldly glanced at the general who was the loudest, "When did this general tell a lie? Bring a few for those who didn't come."

The person who did not come is not everyone, but the general.

"Okay!"

This time, the answering voice was louder and more regular.

……

Yan Qingnan had many wives, concubines and children, as well as many servants. The Zinan Governor's Mansion arrested more than 300 people, but Yan Qingnan was not among them.

After counting the number of people, Yan Qingnan's youngest son and three grandsons, as well as Yan Qingnan's confidant Yan Han were missing.

Seeing more than 300 people kneeling together, Qu Chu called the butler of the Governor's Mansion to come forward, "Where's Yan Qingnan?"

The butler was trembling, his legs were shaking constantly.

"Returning to the general, after hearing that someone was attacking the city in the middle of the night, the master took Master Yan out, saying he was looking at the situation, and then he never came back."

Qu Chu glanced at the others, and then said to a 30-year-old woman in colorful clothes, "You come out."

The woman got up and stood in front of Qu Chu.

Qu Chu glanced at her lightly, "Where's Yan Qingnan?"

The woman turned pale and whispered, "I don't know."

"Where are Yan Qingnan's youngest son and three grandchildren?"

Just as the woman was about to open her mouth, Qu Chu added coldly, "I'll think about it before I speak."

The woman lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I heard from the master that I would send him to Jingcheng."

Jingcheng?
Qu Chu snorted coldly in his heart: Do you think Jingcheng is that safe?Sooner or later, this general will end Jingcheng.

Qu Chu asked a few more people, but no one knew Yan Qingnan's whereabouts.

Qu Chu asked the soldiers to pass down the order:
"The whole city is under martial law, and we will do our best to arrest Yan Qingnan. Also, carefully search the city for any tunnels leading to the outside of the city."

A general asked Qu Chu, "General, do you think Yan Qingnan has escaped?"

Qu Chu answered him:
"There are two possibilities.

One is that he is still hiding somewhere in the city, trying to escape while we are relaxing.

The second is that he has escaped from the city. "

Qu Chu felt in his heart that it was more likely that Yan Qingnan would escape from the city.

Since Yan Qingnan sent his son and grandson away, it means that he knows that breaking the city will happen sooner or later, and he will definitely make preparations in advance.

Since he had just arrived in Nanshu, he had thought of hole attack. It is impossible for Yan Qingnan not to think of digging tunnels in Nanshu for more than ten years.

However, it is hard to guess where Yan Qingnan will go after he escapes.

One general didn't understand a question, "General, how did you guess that the woman knew the whereabouts of Yan Qingnan's son and grandson?"

Qu Chu glanced at him, "I don't know, I just saw that she was dressed like Yan Qingnan's concubine, so I asked her to ask. I didn't expect that she really knew."

"General, you are awesome!"

"As expected of a general, his eyes are like torches!"

All the generals flattered Qu Chu one after another.

At this moment, Qu Chu miraculously remembered what Ning Youbei had said about Yan Qingnan to her.

Back then, when Qu Chu knew about General Situ's feelings for Concubine Chen, he inadvertently asked Ning Youbei: Is Yan Qingnan's feelings for the former Empress the same as General Situ's feelings for Concubine Chen?
As a result, Ning Youbei immediately exploded, saying how Yan Qingnan's feelings could be compared with General Situ's, saying that General Situ was unmarried and had no children for Concubine Chen, while Yan Qingnan had a lot of wives and concubines.

Looking at it now, it really is true.

Yan Qingnan's concubine is younger than his daughter-in-law.
