Chapter 344 Then Reveal Your Identity
Of course, Ji Ping was mainly timid. He couldn't afford to offend either of those two people, and even if he was really curious, he didn't dare to ask.
Ji Ping left quickly, and Tingshu stayed outside, a little further away, to help his master, the eldest son, guard the door.
Lu Chenyang in the room was racking his brains, not knowing what to say to Yan Xing.
Yan Xing noticed his uneasiness and said with a smile, "Why? Lord Lu, who is always so calm, also has a moment when he is at a loss for words?"
Lu Chenyang touched his nose and said, "No."
Yan Xing took the initiative to walk in front of him, and his gaze was like a net, tightly wrapping him up.
Yan Xing said softly: "I miss you very much, always, very much."
The tips of Lu Chenyang's ears turned a little red. He was not used to hearing such straightforward words.
Yan Xing looked at his ears, his eyes sparkling: "Do you miss me a little bit? Just a little bit." His voice was soft, as if he was afraid of scaring him.
Lu Chenyang thought about it and nodded slightly.
Then, Lu Chenyang saw Yan Xing's eyes brighter. He couldn't help but smile and reached out to hug him gently.
Yan Xing let out a long sigh beside his ear and said with a sigh, "Now I feel like I've finally met you."
Lu Chenyang didn't say anything and just let him hold him quietly.
At this moment, Lu Chenyang finally understood a truth: she had him in her heart. As Lu Xueyin, she had him in her heart.
Otherwise, considering their positions, identities, and the situations they might encounter in the future, how could she, who is calm and intelligent, still be soft-hearted towards him and still be troubled by his feelings?
Some relationships are filled with unwavering courage. Others, after weighing the pros and cons, can lead to lingering hesitations. In reality, this hesitation is a sign of a reluctance to give up.
Yan Xing is the former, and Lu Xueyin is the latter.
Lu Chenyang pushed him away and asked, "What do you think about this peace talk?"
Yan Xing felt a little helpless. They had just met and hadn't said a few words when she started talking about business.
He was a little dissatisfied: "We just met, and you are talking about these things."
Lu Chenyang blinked and said subconsciously: "Isn't this a serious matter?"
Yan Xing said, "I'm talking about serious matters." He looked at her meaningfully and said, "Marriage is a serious matter, how can it not be a serious matter?"
Yan Xing said seriously, "You can't keep this identity forever, right?"
Lu Chenyang was stunned for a moment. This was indeed true. However, he had never been anxious about this matter, because in his mind, it was not a big deal. He would just make it public when he remembered it one day.
Yan Xing glanced at him and said, "This is a good opportunity. Your reputation is at its peak right now. If you make it public now, people won't be too harsh on you."
That's true. In fact, given his rebellious plans, he can't continue with this identity. Did Yan Xing see something? Is that why he said that?
Lu Chenyang carefully observed his expression and saw that he was calm and seemed to be just saying it casually, so he did not dwell on it. Whether Yan Xing knew or not, or whether Yan Xing had other ideas, it could not affect his decision.
Lu Chenyang nodded: "Well, you are right. As soon as the Tatar marriage delegation arrives, I will reveal my identity."
Yan Xing was stunned for a moment, then he understood Lu Chenyang's thoughts.
If he reveals his identity, it will probably shock the world, and the Tatar envoys will be caught off guard by the news. Then, while their attention is focused on this matter, Lu Chenyang will take the opportunity to propose harsh conditions.
It's a kind of diversion.
As expected of Lord Lu, he wants to make use of everything to maximize benefits.
Yan Xing nodded without hesitation, agreeing with his idea: "What are you going to do?"
Lu Chenyang frowned slightly, looking a little puzzled: "I just said I'm a woman, what else can I do?"
Yan Xing's eyes flickered, and his voice softened. "Actually, I have a better idea," he said. He didn't want to keep the secret, so he said, "Then you can show up dressed in women's clothing. People who see you then won't be expecting anything."
Lu Chenyang looked at him calmly: "You want to see me wearing women's clothes, right?"
Yan Xing showed a shy smile, as if his little tricks had been exposed.
Lu Chenyang hasn't worn women's clothes for many years. She has been dressed as a man for the past seven years. Before that, she also dressed as a man when she was escorting goods outside. She almost forgot what she looked like in women's clothes.
Lu Chenyang nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Yan Xing felt that Lu Chenyang was really good to him. Look, she listened to him so much. Wasn't it because she cared about him? Otherwise, with his status and power, how could he be so obedient to others?
She really likes him.
Yan Xing had a happy expression on his face.
Lu Chenyang didn't care how to reveal his identity, he cared about something else.
"I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also sent people here, they are his teacher and the commander of the guards. Do you know these two people?" Lu Chenyang asked.
Yan Xing nodded. "As for Wei Guang... he doesn't come from a high background, and the Wei family isn't a large one. However, he's well-educated, and a decent, upright person. That's why my father chose him to educate the Crown Prince. He's a bit old-fashioned, but he also has a patriotic heart. As for Luo Fei... he's incredibly loyal, and his martial arts skills are decent, but he's completely devoted to the Crown Prince, so he's nothing to be afraid of."
Actually, for Lu Chenyang now, no one in the entire Dagan is a threat to him. But Lu Chenyang cares about this peace talk and doesn't want anyone to cause trouble for him.
This was a peace agreement that the Lu family army had fought for with their lives, resulting in countless casualties and a huge loss of manpower and money. He would not allow anyone to destroy it.
Lu Chenyang said, "If they're working for the sake of peace, I'm not intolerant. But if they have other motives..." His gaze sternly said, "Then don't blame me for being ruthless and refusing to show respect to the Crown Prince. This was won with the lives of the Lu family soldiers, and I must be worthy of their sacrifice."
Yan Xing nodded: "I understand what you mean. Don't worry, the prince wouldn't be ignorant of this."
Lu Chenyang pursed his lips, and his expression became somewhat unchanging when he mentioned the prince.
Yan Xing knew that Lu Chenyang was dissatisfied with the prince.
In fact, it's not just Lu Chenyang, he himself is somewhat dissatisfied with the prince's behavior in the past two years.
He was so angry at the time that the Yilin Army robbed the disaster relief food that he wrote to the prince hoping to send troops, but the prince refused.
This one thing alone was enough to make Yan Xing disappointed in him.
The two of them reached a consensus, and Yan Xing went back to rest, as he had come all the way here.
Lu Chenyang began to prepare for the peace talks. He needed to think carefully about what conditions to propose to the Tatars.
He loves it so much when others give him gifts, whether it's extortion or gifts.
Lu Chenyang sat in his chair and the first thing he wrote down was war horses. Ten thousand war horses! He wanted ten thousand war horses! And then he would pay tribute of three thousand war horses to Dagan every year.
When Lu Chenyang thought of the Tatar war horses with smooth fur and fat bodies, he couldn't help but feel envious.
He loved it so much. With these war horses, he could form the cavalry he had always dreamed of.
Lu Chenyang happily began to imagine how majestic the Lu family army's cavalry must be, and he couldn't help but grin.
The Tatar delegation and the peace delegation sent by the prince arrived almost at the same time. The Tatar delegation arrived first, and two days later the Dagan peace delegation headed by Wei Guang also arrived.
This is certainly not a coincidence. The Tatars must have been paying attention to the situation of the delegation sent by the court and calculated the time of arrival.
