Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingyuan paused for a moment, holding the letter, but showed nothing, and simply handed the letter over.
Xie Yu was taken aback, and looked at him suspiciously, her eyes full of wariness.
Is this person going to teach her a lesson again? This time, she won't silently endure it.
She is no longer the Xie Yu who would only cry out of fear.
Jiang Qingyuan glanced at her and simply said, "Didn't you want to read the letter?"
Xie Yu was overjoyed and quickly took the letter, reading it carefully.
Jiang Qingyuan then opened another letter from Lu Cijian and began to read it. The more he read, the deeper his brows furrowed.
Upon seeing this, Wei Jinghai quickly asked, "What's wrong? Did Yi Mian and the others run into some kind of problem?"
Otherwise, he really couldn't understand why Jiang Qingyuan would have such an expression.
Jiang Qingyuan simply shook his head, his voice heavy with emotion, "Xie Yang is currently in Xiliang."
When he learned that Xie Yang had escaped from the Great Jin Dynasty, he guessed that the other party had most likely gone to the Western Liang.
After all, back in Qingnan, that person had used people from Xiliang to assassinate Wei Jinghai.
He wasn't sure back then, but now, looking at everything in the letter, he just clutched it tightly.
Xie Yang is ruthless and cruel, harming so many people, yet he managed to escape from the Great Jin Dynasty. Even though His Majesty sent so many people to hunt him down, they were unable to capture him.
Now, he finally has the chance to take revenge.
Whether it's the revenge for his father or the hatred for the innocent people who died because of Xie Yang, he will avenge them.
Wei Jinghai was startled and immediately understood what was going on: "Tuyuhun needs the help of the Great Jin to deal with Xiliang?"
Tuyuhun and Xiliang were already at odds, and now Xie Yang has been involved. Neither Tuyuhun nor the Great Jin will likely let those people off easily.
Lu Cijian must have reached an agreement with the Tuyuhun people to deal with Xiliang together.
Jiang Qingyuan nodded. "More or less, but we don't know the specifics yet. We'll find out when we get to Xiliang. The letter says we should set off after the Tuyuhun troops withdraw. This is the order."
Wei Jinghai nodded, his gaze falling on the transfer order sealed with the imperial seal, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
It must have been a blank transfer order that His Majesty specially gave to Lu Cijian and Jiang Yimian when they left the capital. It is indeed appropriate to use it here now.
Originally, he was worried that without His Majesty's verbal order or transfer order, these border guards would not be able to leave at will, but fortunately Lu Cijian had already taken this into consideration.
Wei Jinghai thought for a while before saying, "With Zhang Shan and me here, you can rest assured to lead your troops to Xiliang."
Now that Aguzan and Dajin have reached an agreement, they will have no other intentions, and their withdrawal of troops is the best proof of that.
It seems that Likunwu has already been subdued by Aguzan's men; otherwise, that guy wouldn't have so easily made the Likun family's army obey and retreat.
Likunwu has always been stubborn. Once on the battlefield, he's like a mad beast that no one can stop. The fact that he's obeying Aguzan's order to retreat must be a well-thought-out choice.
It's unclear what conditions the Khan used to get Likunwu to quietly agree to withdraw his troops and refrain from any underhanded tactics.
Jiang Qingyuan simply nodded. His initial doubts about the retreat of the Tuyuhun troops vanished instantly, and he began to think about how many Jin soldiers he should take with him.
The letter only stated that they were providing some assistance, and that the main conflict lay between Tuyuhun and Xiliang.
This means they shouldn't bring too many soldiers, otherwise it would definitely cause dissatisfaction from other countries.
All he could say was that Lu Cijian was overthinking things.
After months of continuous battles, the Great Jin Dynasty suffered heavy losses and had very few troops left to mobilize.
Wei Jinghai hesitated for a long time before looking at the person who was laughing and talking with several soldiers. After thinking for a while, he said, "Since Yi Mian and the others are in Xiliang, let A Yu go with you."
For the past few months, she has been helping to bandage the injured person every day and listening to your lectures. She must have been heartbroken for a long time.
If she finds out you went to see Yi Mian and the others without her, she'll be even more upset, though she might not say anything.
Jiang Qingyuan, who had frowned after hearing the first half of the sentence, was stunned after hearing the second half.
Didn't he only say harsh words that one time?
If we include the one just now, then there should only be two instances.
After a long silence, he finally replied, "Okay."

At this moment, on a secluded mountaintop somewhere in Weizhou.
Jiang Yimian and Lu Cijian looked at the two tombstones in front of them and bowed three times to them.
During this time, Lu Cijian remained unusually silent, staring at the inscription on the tombstone for a long time without saying a word, seemingly lost in thought.
Jiang Yimian instinctively grabbed Lu Cijian's hand, and looking at the names of Li Qingmeng and Song Bingcheng engraved on the tombstone, a wave of sadness and worry surged in her heart again.
Watching someone you care about die right before your eyes is a truly painful experience.
She didn't even know what to say to comfort the people around her; all her words seemed too pale.
Lu Cijian simply smiled and grasped the slender hand in return, "I'm fine, I have you now."
He was indeed very sad and remorseful when he witnessed Song Bingcheng die in front of him, but during the half-month coma, he understood many things.
Song Bingcheng was already seriously ill at the time, and his death in that manner was perhaps his own choice.
He should respect Song Bingcheng.
Moreover, Song Bingcheng said in the letter he left behind that if he hadn't had so many things left to do, he would have wanted to leave with Li Qingmeng a long time ago.
Although Lu Cijian was saddened, after reading the letter, she vaguely realized that Song Bingcheng's greatest feeling before his death must have been happiness.
In the letter, Song Bingcheng talked a lot about his own life, things that Song Bingcheng had never known before.
This naturally includes his guilt towards his mother and the deep-seated love he holds for her.
Seeing that Lu Cijian had indeed let go, Jiang Yimian breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the two tombstones, she smiled and stepped forward to offer two sticks of incense before saying, "Master, Aunt, A-Jian is doing well now, you don't need to worry."
He actually loves you all very much, but he's just too shy to say it.
We'll come to visit you often in the future.
Lu Cijian listened to the girl's rambling words and smiled unconsciously. He squatted down, lit incense for the two side by side tombstones, and said, "Yes, Master, Mother, you don't need to worry about me anymore."
I won't be alone anymore.
Emerging from the dense forest, we could see a towering black tower in the distance.
Although she hadn't gotten close yet, Jiang Yimian instinctively felt that the place was gloomy and cold.
Lu Cijian looked at the black tower, but his expression was not much, as if he no longer cared about it.
Jiang Yimian could see the subtle changes in Lu Cijian's expression. She reached out and grabbed the person next to her, smiling as she said, "There's no need to go over there. Since they are unimportant memories, there's no need to recall them."
I hope that all your future memories will be of me.
Lu Cijian paused for a moment, knowing that the other person didn't want him to recall those things, and just smiled, "Okay."
Originally, the most memorable things in his memory were all related to Mianmian.
Just then, a loud shout was heard.
