Chapter 315 Separate Actions
Zhao Qingwan looked at the undisguised joy on his face. His eyes were full of admiration. Just when he mentioned that person, his eyes were full of brilliance.
At this moment, Zhao Qingwan suddenly realized that she seemed to have achieved the opposite effect. She did something stupid and she shouldn't have told him about it.
Yan Xing was in such a good mood that he looked at Zhao Qingwan gently: "What do you want?"
He decided that as long as her request was not excessive, he would agree to it.
Zhao Qingwan said, "I want you to marry me." She was afraid that he would refuse, so she quickly said, "Even if it means being your concubine, I am willing."
She mustered up her courage and tried every possible means, just hoping to be with the boy she had loved since she was young.
Zhao Qingwan looked at him and said seriously, "Brother Prince, I know I did something wrong. You refuse to trust me anymore. I am willing to pay the price for what I did wrong. However, I know I was wrong. I just want you to give me a chance."
Yan Xing looked at her sincere eyes and said, "The identity of the Zhenguogong's Crown Prince's Consort is indeed tempting enough, enough to make you put aside your dignity and beg in person."
"No, I'm sincere. I really like you." Zhao Qingwan said hurriedly.
Yan Xingdao said: "Maybe it's true, but I don't really care. Your sincerity is not that precious."
Perhaps it was the wrong time. Yan Xing had once given his heart to them, but later found out it was just a joke. Zhao Qingwan might be sincere now, or she might not, but Yan Xing didn't care.
Zhao Qingwan slowly folded her fingers together. "I've told you such a big secret, a secret that can directly defeat Lu Chenyang. If it gets out, you know what will happen to Lu Chenyang. I can give you the witness..."
Yan Xing's eyes flashed. He didn't expect that Zhao Qingwan was so thorough and even had the witness in her hands.
But he shook his head: "Zhao Qingwan, are you too naive?"
Zhao Qingwan was stunned: "What?"
Yan Xing said, "Who do you think Lu Chenyang is?" He didn't need her to answer. He said directly, "He is the Shangshu Ling of Dagan. Lingnan, Shu, Quzhou, Ningzhou, Huai'an, and Anzhou, half of Dagan is his territory. They all follow his orders. He is the most powerful person in Dagan. His battlefield is the world, not your harem. Do you think your status as a woman can change anything? The Lu family army will still support him, and the people will still love him."
Zhao Qingwan's face turned pale.
Yan Xing was right. Zhao Qingwan was quite clever and lucky, so she unexpectedly learned Lu Chenyang's identity. But so what? In the face of absolute strength, her calculations were like a clown's.
Could it be that Lu Chenyang's downfall was due to her identity as a woman? How could it be possible?
Yan Xing shook his head and said indifferently: "You are too naive!" He ended with the last sentence, mocking her arrogance without any concealment.
In fact, Yan Xing also felt strange. Where did Zhao Qingwan get the confidence and courage from? She was sure that she could deal with Lu Chenyang, so how could she use this handle as a threat?
Zhao Qingwan said seriously, "But she's about to go to war with the Tatars. If she uses her gender to make a fuss, it will definitely cause chaos in the army..." She didn't understand: "The Yanhui Army is in her hands now. Don't you want to take it back?"
"What I care more about is whether we can recapture Yanhui Pass." Yan Xing said without hesitation: "You also know that she is about to attack the Tatars. Do you know that now we rely entirely on her to resist the Tatars? If something goes wrong and the Tatars march down, Dagan will be in dire straits!"
Zhao Qingwan licked the corner of her lips subconsciously. In fact, what she was thinking was that Lu Chenyang and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were in an antagonistic relationship. At least this was a handle that could threaten Lu Chenyang.
"It doesn't necessarily have to be now, it may happen in the future." Zhao Qingwan said anxiously, "There will definitely be a battle between the Crown Prince and Lu Chenyang."
Yan Xing said calmly, "That's our business."
Zhao Qingwan's eyes widened. "You're not saying you can defeat her on the battlefield, are you? There's obviously an easier way."
Yan Xing didn't want to explain anything to her because Zhao Qingwan didn't understand at all.
"Come here, take her under guard." Yan Xing called for help.
Zhao Qingwan was shocked: "You want to put me under house arrest?"
Yan Xing ignored her and had her taken away and put under guard. No matter what she said, he was not allowed to pay any attention to her.
Yan Xing said to her, "I advise you not to talk nonsense and don't think about doing anything. I don't want to do anything more cruel." He met her eyes and said, "Actually, there are better ways to make you shut up, aren't there?"
Zhao Qingwan couldn't help but shiver. Yan Xing was threatening to kill her.
Zhao Qingwan was taken away. Yan Xing rubbed his eyebrows and sighed softly.
Lu Chenyang is a woman, she is actually Lu Xueyin, so when she said she was looking for her sister, she was actually looking for her brother, and the one who was actually missing was Lu Chenyang.
Now Lu Xueyin's identity may have been exposed. Yan Xing didn't know how many people in the Zhao family knew about this. Did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know about it? He wouldn't use this incident to deal with Lu Xueyin, but there was no guarantee that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would.
Yan Xing immediately wrote a letter to Lu Chenyang, hoping that he would be more vigilant.
The matter was of great importance, and Yan Xing was worried about the news leaking out, so he sent his own secret guard to deliver the letter, and said that it must be delivered to Lu Chenyang.
Lu Chenyang had already arrived outside Yanhui Pass at this time.
There is a reason why Yanhui Pass has become the largest natural checkpoint in Dagan and protected Dagan for a hundred years.
Yanhui Pass is like an independent city, surrounded by steep mountains and rivers, which are extremely difficult to climb. A three-mile-wide river surrounds the entire city, guarding Yanhui Pass layer by layer and forming a favorable terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The entire city has two exits, front and back, but there are huge stones at the city gates. When the stones are lowered from the city, the entire city is like an impregnable castle.
To be honest, even Lu Chenyang would have to call him a talent for being able to lose the city here.
At that time, Zar was facing the waste Dingyuan Hou, while Lu Chenyang was facing Zar, a young talent who climbed up from the bottom.
Before Lu Chenyang arrived at Yanhui Pass, Qian Yue had already set off with gifts and money.
He wanted to sneak into Tatar in the guise of a caravan, and then carry out Lu Chenyang's counter-espionage plan.
The two of them acted separately.
In order to support Qian Yue's plan, Lu Chenyang took out all the best things in his box.
Silk, salt, porcelain, and a batch of daggers were also brought to him. These weapons were made from the Lu family's military workshop, with exquisite craftsmanship, just to help Qian Yue break the deadlock as quickly as possible.
He even brought him five boxes full of jewelry. When these things were taken out, Tan Feng and Ji Ping were stunned.
The adults in their family are quite rich. Then when the two of them went to see Qian Yue together, their eyes looked a little unfriendly.
It was the first time that an adult was so generous, and they felt envious and jealous. Adults were always stingy towards them.
Qian Yue was also deeply moved. He had only just come to seek refuge, yet Lu Chenyang trusted him so much and gave him so many things. He had just heard Zhao Xi persuade Lu Chenyang to leave some things for him and not bring so much.
Lu Chenyang said, "Mr. Qian, when you go out, I will feel more at ease if you carry more silver with you. The roads outside are paved with silver."
Qian Yue was very grateful.
Lu Chenyang held Qian Yue's hand and said, "The road ahead will be dangerous. Please take good care of yourself. If the plan goes well, I will be very happy, but Mr. Qian's safety is also important. Please put your own safety first."
Qian Yue was even more moved and wanted to repay him with his life.
"Sir! You trust me so much, I will definitely not let you down." Qian Yue said with red eyes.
Qian Yue gradually understood the meaning of the saying "a man will die for his friend." He felt fortunate to have found a lord who trusted him. For the sake of a common goal, he would lend a helping hand, even at the cost of his life!
Lu Chenyang personally saw Qian Yue off. The guards who accompanied him this time were carefully selected by Lu Chenyang to protect his safety and cargo.
Lu Chenyang looked at the convoy moving further and further away and sighed worriedly.
The danger of Qian Yue's trip was no less than their battle against the Tatars. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a life-or-death situation.
Qian Yue knew it, but still went without hesitation, just because he hoped that he would feel more relaxed afterwards.
For the sake of world peace and no more war at Yanhui Pass, each of them has the obligation to do so.
Lu Chenyang led the army on a long journey and encountered Yanhui Pass.
