"But this is just an arranged marriage. It also has to suit Jing'er's wishes and get her approval," Duke Dingguo added.
In line with Lu Wenjing's thoughts...
Lu Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, then lowered his voice, "But father, although Jing'er is happy, it is also very beneficial to our Lu family. However, our Lu family holds military power. If another crown princess is born in our family, I am afraid that the emperor will be very wary of her."
Even though the current emperor is a wise ruler, it is lonely at the top, and the Lu family must be trembling with fear and treading on thin ice.
Lu Yuncheng believed that all the descendants of the Lu family were loyal to the country, but his family taught them more about military tactics and being a human being, and they were not good at power struggles. Such favor and honor were not a good thing for the Lu family.
Lu Yuncheng did not give any special explanation for this, but he looked at Duke Dingguo meaningfully.
Duke Dingguo was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "I'm afraid your worries are unnecessary."
"Redundant?" Lu Yuncheng was also stunned. "What do you mean, father?"
"Because you don't understand Jing'er's true feelings at all." Duke Dingguo replied with a smile.
Don't understand Lu Wenjing's true feelings? Lu Yuncheng was stunned again.
Does this mean that Lu Wenjing's true feelings are not for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Lu Yuncheng looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lu Wenjing who were still fighting with each other, and his face was full of disbelief.
But what my father said must be true.
So the question is, who is the person that Lu Wenjing is thinking about? Lu Yuncheng searched his mind for a long time, but he still couldn't find the person that Duke Dingguo was talking about.
But as they continued on their journey and got closer to their destination, this thought gradually faded away. Lu Yuncheng concentrated on discussing the attack later with Duke Dingguo and others.
The group took a short break on the road at noon, and after lunch, they split up into several groups and set off separately.
As agreed before, Su Yujin, Lu Wenjing and Qin Peiyou were escorted by Zou Yunqi and other guards and walked at the back.
He Yanxiu and Lu Yuntao led a team of people and traveled from the afternoon to the evening. They found a place to stay and sent spies to the front to gather information.
There is a town ahead. According to reliable information, a vanguard army of Xijinyun State is stationed here, preparing to attack the nearby county town in a few days.
The spies were gone for a long time, and only came back one after another until late at night to report what they had found.
The spies were all very clever. They took advantage of the cover of night to find out almost everything that was happening outside and told He Yanxiu and Lu Yuntao everything.
While listening, Lu Yuntao gestured on the ground with a branch, thought for a moment, and then assigned all the tasks.
After Lu Yuntao finished speaking, He Yanxiu added, "We must make a bigger noise, let the horses run and the drums beat, and create more dust to show that we are a large group this time."
Although we now know that the Xijinyun Kingdom has invulnerable magic weapons, we don’t know if the ones here are the same, or whether these magic weapons are not just one army, but are scattered everywhere.
In short, if the noise is made louder, the other party will pay more attention to it and maybe send out this so-called magic weapon to deal with it. They can also get a chance to see what kind of magic this so-called magic weapon is.
Lu Yuntao understood what He Yanxiu meant and nodded.
The servants hurriedly went to do their work as ordered.
Taking advantage of the bright moonlight, the vanguard attacked with crossbows mixed with rockets, setting Xi Jinyun's tent on fire, causing chaos.
Taking advantage of the chaos, with horses neighing, drums beating, and dust flying, Lu Yuntao and He Yanxiu personally led their men forward to fight.
The soldiers on both sides fought in a group and it was difficult to separate them.
Lu Yuntao and He Yanxiu were very skilled and invincible, and they led the Qin soldiers to gain the upper hand.
After killing another soldier from Xijinyun Kingdom, Lu Yuntao and He Yanxiu looked at each other.
So far, no so-called magic soldiers have been found in the army of Xijinyun Kingdom.
Maybe... there are no magical weapons here?
Just as the two of them looked at each other and decided to implement the strategy of capturing the king first and going to capture the leader of the Xijinyun Kingdom who was protected by many soldiers, there was suddenly a commotion around them.
The two looked up and saw that several soldiers from the Great Qin State were being knocked away by a burly soldier from the Western Jinyun State.
When the other soldiers saw this, they chopped at the man with their swords.
The sword fell on the man, and blood splattered everywhere, but the soldier from Xijinyun seemed to be unaware of the pain, and just swung the scimitar in his hand to chop at the soldier from the Qin State.
Is this the magic weapon? Just as Lu Yuntao and He Yanxiu were stunned, several Xijinyun soldiers who looked like the man just now appeared beside them. Their eyes were red and their bodies were covered with wounds, but they still waved their weapons and killed with murderous intent on their faces.
Even during the fight, a soldier from the Western Jinyun Kingdom grabbed a soldier from the Great Qin Kingdom with one hand and threw him far away with just a raise of his hand.
It was just as the rumors said, invulnerable to swords and guns and with immense strength.
Lu Yuntao and He Yanxiu both had gloomy faces and launched attacks on those powerful "divine soldiers" respectively.
Both of them are excellent in martial arts. The long sword in He Yanxiu's hand and the long spear in Lu Yuntao's hand have already cut many scars on the magical weapon.
Even though the blood had soaked the armor and clothes, the divine weapon did not slow down its movements in the slightest.
The divine soldier from Xijinyun State seemed to have no fear of death at all, and had no sense of pain. His body was covered in blood, and his eyes were red, which made him look even more ferocious and terrifying, which made the soldiers of the Qin State feel a little scared.
Fear arose in his heart, and his fighting spirit weakened a little.
As a result, the Qin Empire quickly fell into a disadvantage.
He Yanxiu frowned, looking at those magical weapons that seemed not to be human at all, and clenched the sword in his hand.
Since ordinary hacking is basically useless, we can only focus on its vital points!
He Yanxiu replaced his long sword with a heavier broadsword, and rushed to the front of a divine soldier in one step. With his quick eyes and hands, he chopped the opponent's neck.
The head fell to the ground almost instantly and rolled twice before stopping.
But the body did not fall down. Instead, it took two steps forward and then knelt on the ground.
But even when he fell to the ground, his hands and feet were still waving, as if he was immortal.
Lu Yuntao also encountered such a situation, and he broke out in a cold sweat, "Is there really such an immortal weapon in this world?"
"There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. There must be a reason for such strange things." He Yanxiu replied in a deep voice.
Moreover, when they just started fighting, they did not notice any magical weapons.
