"You've practically spoiled them; how many of them truly submit to you?"
Huyan Xun: "Nonsense! My men are brave warriors! If they have any disloyal intentions, kill them without mercy!"
She's ruined him; Qiu Yan is pushing him to his limits.
Qiu Yan... Yes, she admitted that she was talking nonsense.
"Your soldiers are only intimidated by your majesty and brutality, and dare not act rashly."
There are two things in the world that cannot be looked at directly: the sun and the human heart.
If you act with benevolence and righteousness throughout the world, and occasionally show concern for your soldiers, they will surely be devoted to you.
Conversely, if you continue to use brutality to control them, how many people do you think will ultimately stand by your side?
Therefore, it is still quite necessary to use victory celebrations to win people's hearts and minds and to promote them to higher positions.
Ling Ba: In the end, it all comes down to a victory celebration banquet.
Xiaoyan, how did you analyze a mere celebration banquet into such a lengthy discourse?
Hu Yanxun was surprised that he had the patience to listen to the whole thing.
Qiu Yan, you've even thought of a way out for me.
"Women, so soft-hearted! As long as they fear me, that's enough." He couldn't help but frown.
"You're implying that I should host a banquet. Tell me, what is your purpose?"
Qiu Yan: The goal, of course, is to stop you from attacking the Central Plains?
"Your Majesty is overthinking it. I only wish to use your power to avenge my grievances."
"Is that so?" Hu Yanxun suddenly beamed with joy.
"There will certainly be a celebration banquet this time, but I want you to come along and attend."
The joy of victory should be shared with others.
Ling Ba: Don't think he doesn't know that Huyan Xun has developed lustful thoughts towards Xiao Yan.
Qiu Yan's expression relaxed slightly, and she couldn't help but raise her lips: "When will it be held?"
Huyan Xun: "Tomorrow night. After the victory banquet, we'll head to Northern Qi together. If you're not there, you can forget about this warhorse!"
He finished speaking and burst into laughter.
Qiu Yan: "But we have to set off after dinner."
Ling Ba nodded silently, but at the same time, his unease intensified once again.
He knew that tonight was destined to be unjust.
Qiu Yan wasn't digging a hole for herself; on the contrary, she was trying to save herself.
She was certain that Huyan Xun would send her the warhorse.
Not for her, but to do a favor for Western Qin, and for Northern Desert to dominate the Central Plains.
She only realized Huyan Xun's wishful thinking after she came to the Northern Desert.
Sure enough, the next sentence was spoken by Huyan Xun:
"Qiu Yan, I know that your Western Qin has long controlled some small states in the Central Plains and is quite powerful."
Even if you are not weak, so what? You still suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Tojin.
Now that your prince has died, you must be heartbroken, right?
It hurts, does it mean I should take revenge?
This chieftain said he would avenge you!
You can rest assured about that. So, whether it's sooner or later makes no difference. At that time, as long as our two sides join forces, what do we have to fear from His Majesty Dongjin's rabble?
Qiu Yan remained silent. Did she intend to join forces with Western Qin to deal with Eastern Jin? Could Hu Yanxun actually do that?
If they do not stop him, Huyan Xun will be the biggest threat to Dongjin.
Ling Ba: That's a very beautiful idea.
He had already guessed that Huyan Xun's insistence on going to Northern Qi with them had only one purpose: to dominate the Central Plains.
As for Xiaoyan and Huyanxun, although they had feelings for each other, deep down they still looked down on women.
How could the deeply ingrained ideas in Huyan Xun's mind be changed so easily?
Huyan Xun mistook them for people from Western Qin, and of course, he wanted to use Western Qin.
The death of the Western Qin prince is exactly what he wanted, isn't it?
