Su Rong nodded. She knew Cui Xingzhi. There had been a file on the Qinghe Cui family in the secret compartment of the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace. It had prominently recorded information about the patriarch of the Qinghe Cui clan, Mister Cui, as well as his most highly regarded grandson, Cui Xingzhi.
Unexpectedly, Mister Cui had sent Cui Xingzhi to Nanchu.
With his men, Cui Xingzhi quickly held up the retreat of the siege cannon. Over a thousand men tangled with the guards protecting the cannon. Then, with a swing of his sword, Cui Xingzhi destroyed two of the cannons.
Cui Yanjin belatedly shouted, "Oh dear, cousin, why did you destroy them? I wanted them!"
Cui Xingzhi paused his action, turned to Cui Yanjin, then promptly ordered, "Take these two cannons back with us."
With his command, his personal guards pushed the siege cannons away.
Crown Prince Yuan Zhao of Dawei roared angrily, "Cut them off, destroy the cannons, and don't let them get away with them."
