Jiang Kai quickly glanced at Chen Jingxi. Her face was rosy and radiant. What was wrong with her? She was lying with her eyes open.
Before he came, he had heard about Chen Jingxi's heroic deeds, fighting in the battlefield, caring for the wounded, and even feeling unwell. Haha! Is he that stupid, that easy to fool?
"Your Majesty, are you planning to disobey my order?"
Chu Jinghuai sneered, "Master Jiang, do you think I'm too easy to talk to?"
Jiang Kai felt bitter in his heart! He was threatened again. If he hadn't been slow to step back, this unfortunate task wouldn't have fallen on him.
It was only when he arrived in Qingzhou that he realized how cruel Chu Jinghuai was. He not only killed the Turkic commander, but also killed 20,000 captured Turks and Wanfan soldiers.

Chen Jingxi almost laughed out loud, but held back at the critical moment, "Master Jiang, you're putting me in a difficult position."
"Princess Su, you don't have to feel embarrassed. I am willing to pay these fifty thousand taels." Spending fifty thousand taels is better than failing to get things done and being blamed by the emperor.
Chu Jinghuai looked at Jiang Kai's fawning attitude towards Chen Jingxi and could not help but yelled angrily, "Throw him out to me."
Jiang Kai was dumbfounded.
