Chapter 479: Letter from Dark Wind
As expected, after Qin Guang calmed down, he said to Jiang Lin, "No matter what the King Li's intentions were in sending us this letter for help, King Han is ill in bed, and the feud between King Cheng and King Li is real. If we catch them off guard..."
There was no need to say the rest of the words, Jiang Lin also understood.
So at this moment he fell into deep thought.
"General Qin." Just when Qin Guang thought Jiang Lin would not support his proposal, Jiang Lin suddenly asked him, "How are the soldiers in the camp now?"
Qin Guang's eyes gradually lit up, and Qin Xiangnuan turned to Jiang Lin in surprise.
"Very good." Qin Guang's tone was full of excitement. "We can go to the battlefield at any time."
Jiang Lin nodded. "General Qin, I'll be thanking you for your hard work these past few days. Tonight, I'll have to discuss with you how to capture the city."
"Okay." Qin Guang responded, and it was obvious that he was very excited. He immediately said goodbye to Jiang Lin, "I'll go around and look around first. I'll come find you tonight."
Jiang Lin nodded, and after Qin Guang left, Jiang Lin turned his head to Qin Xiangnuan.
"Nuannuan, do you have anything to say?" Jiang Lin asked.
Qin Xiangnuan's lips twitched, then she shook her head. "Now is indeed a good time. You have more experience than me. It's up to you to decide everything."
"You're worried about the safety of the people nearby, right?" Jiang Lin smiled and said to Qin Xiangnuan, "I know that no matter which side starts the war, no matter where the battlefield is, it will always affect the people."
"I am a little worried." Qin Xiangnuan raised the corner of her mouth, "But I think you are not that inconsiderate, so you must have considered them."
Jiang Lin was stunned for a moment and then laughed. It was a wonderful feeling to be trusted wholeheartedly by someone.
"I will do my best to protect them." Jiang Lin didn't dare to say that he could guarantee everyone's safety. He knew very well that he couldn't do it.
In fact, when a war breaks out, the first to bear the brunt are bound to be the soldiers. Their lives on the battlefield are no longer worth living and can be taken at will.
Now that the decision has been made, they have to act quickly. Aji can't stay there any longer. He has to find a way to bring the person back without arousing King Cheng's suspicion.
"Let the secret guards handle this matter. Nuannuan, your life will be more difficult in the future. You will have to take care of the people left at the border." Jiang Lin said.
"I understand." Qin Xiangnuan said, "Just go ahead and tell me if you need anything."
At this time, Jiang Lin was no longer polite. The help provided by Qin Xiangnuan could better help them win and reduce the losses of their soldiers. Why should he refuse to accept it?
"I will come to you for it after I have agreed on a strategy with General Qin," Jiang Lin said.
While the two of them were analyzing the terrain and arranging their troops, someone rushed in recklessly.
Jiang Lin frowned and looked at the man, who was the soldier who usually delivered letters.
"Prince, An...An Feng finally sent a letter." The soldiers raised their hands to their hearts, jumping for joy.
Jiang Lin instantly snatched the envelope from his hand, throwing away the heaviness of the past.
By the time the soldier realized something was wrong, Jiang Lin had already opened the letter. He was stunned for a moment, but that didn't stop him from continuing his excitement. He said, "Finally, a letter has arrived! I've been waiting for this for months."
Qin Xiangnuan glanced at him and thought, who isn't?
Jiang Lin's anxious movements revealed his impatience. After reading the letter, Jiang Lin's expression did not relax.
Qin Xiangnuan narrowed her eyes slightly, "What happened?"
Jiang Lin put down his hands and let the letter hang to the side. He turned around and wanted to say something to Qin Xiangnuan, but when he caught a glimpse of the soldier delivering the letter in his peripheral vision, he stopped.
Qin Xiangnuan followed his gaze.
The soldier blinked in confusion, then understood, "I...I'll go out right away."
In the past, the soldiers would leave after delivering the letter. But this time, it was because Jiang Lin had been waiting for the letter for a long time and the soldiers had been asked many times by Jiang Lin, so they forgot to leave.
"Thank you!" Jiang Lin said as he turned around.
"No, no, no." The soldier waved his hands repeatedly, "Sir, I'll be leaving first."
After saying this, the soldiers ran out.
Jiang Lin slowly withdrew his gaze and then handed the letter to Qin Xiangnuan.
Qin Xiangnuan lowered her eyes, then raised them after a moment to meet Jiang Lin's gaze.
"Do you want to fight again?" Qin Xiangnuan asked.
Jiang Lin's eyes darkened a little, and he slowly uttered a word: "Yes."
"Okay." At this time, Qin Xiangnuan was able to support Jiang Lin.
"Don't worry too much." Qin Xiangnuan placed a hand on Jiang Lin's shoulder. "Since Anfeng has been rescued by Anliu, and the letter also said that they are safe now, we just need to wait patiently for them to come back."
Jiang Lin shook his head, "His current condition must be bad."
Qin Xiangnuan raised her eyebrows in confusion, and Jiang Lin curled his lips, "If everything is fine, this letter should be Anliu telling me the good news, not Anfeng."
Qin Xiangnuan looked down again. She could not sense any other information between the lines. This conclusion could only be drawn from the tacit understanding between Jiang Lin and the other three.
"Since Anliu hasn't written any other letters, it should be within his tolerance." Qin Xiangnuan said.
This guess is still reasonable. Jiang Lin was too concerned and confused, and did not think about this problem.
"We must win the next battle." Jiang Lin still has a lot to consider.
Jiang Lin must handle the border affairs well so as not to let An Feng down for the suffering he has endured in the capital.
"But..." Qin Xiangnuan looked at the unfamiliar name several times, pointed at that spot, and asked Jiang Lin, "Why have I never heard of this Ninth Prince?"
Jiang Lin's gaze also fell on Qin Xiangnuan's fingertips, and then on the title.
"If An Feng hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten that there was such a person in the imperial city." Jiang Lin's gaze gradually became profound as he recalled the name.
Qin Xiangnuan said, "No wonder no one guessed it was him at first."
Jiang Lin nodded and forced a smile. "When I made my guess, I actually missed him. I thought anyone could be the one behind this, but I didn't think it was him."
"Is he very unpopular?" Qin Xiangnuan couldn't help but guess.
Jiang Lin shook his head. "When his mother was alive, he was favored, and he was also the most intelligent among the princes. But after his mother passed away, everything changed."
When Qin Xiangnuan heard this, she felt that the person behind such a big game was the Ninth Prince, so it was not so surprising.
