Zheng Quchi had no objection. She slowly took out the antidote powder that Aunt Mei had prepared, thinking that if she delayed a little longer, Mo Ye would be doomed. But he was quite resilient. After taking the antidote powder, his complexion improved at a visible speed and was no longer as ashen-blue as before.
The Julu army looked delighted and praised the antidote powder for its effectiveness. Although the Ye people were used to using despicable and shameless means to win the competition, they were still quite trustworthy.
Zheng Quchi rolled his eyes at this, knowing that you guys were unwilling to accept defeat, but you didn't know that you grown men could be even more sarcastic and bitter than a complaining woman.
Zheng Quchi didn't die hoping for Mo Ye's death, but he successfully obtained two Cangxuan Tokens from the Julu Army. This can be considered as him getting revenge on Julu Kingdom and Mo Ye.
Without lingering, she led her men back to camp. That very afternoon, Zheng Quchi sent four Cangxuan tokens to Hou Feiqing, the commander of the Northern Abyss Kingdom, swiftly resolving the matter of the six kingdoms' military trial.
She wrote a letter, saying: "The Kingdom of Ye is currently in a time of great turmoil. Our king is in trouble. Regarding the fate of the nation and the future of the people of Ye, our army is concerned about the competition and even more so about the Kingdom of Ye. We feel that we have broken our promise to the Kingdom of Beiyuan by withdrawing from the Six Kingdoms Military Trial for some reason. Therefore, we are willing to offer four Cangxuan Tokens as tokens, hoping that on a certain day we can resume the competition between our two countries and determine the winner fairly and squarely."
After Hou Feiqing received the four Cangxuan Tokens and this letter, his expression became twisted and abnormal.
Although the Ye army conceded defeat, which was tantamount to the Beiyuan army winning the trial of military affairs among the six states, upon closer examination, it seemed as if they had not won at all.
Gongshu Jiruo never expected that Zheng Quchi would pull off such a drastic move, turning a seemingly hopeless situation into a draw.
"After painstakingly obtaining the four Cangxuan Tokens, she chose to voluntarily withdraw from the Six Kingdoms Military Trial. Moreover, she timed it perfectly and gave the right reasons. This move really boosted the reputation of the Ye Army. Even if the Ye Kingdom didn't win in the end, it still made a good profit." Hou Feiqing was so angry that he laughed at Zheng Quchi's textbook-style attempt to save face.
They want to settle the score fairly and squarely? What utter bullshit! Do they think Ye Kingdom would dare to do that?
Gongshu Jiruo saw that Hou Feiqing was quite angry. It was clear that he always wanted to win beautifully and lose clearly, but he just happened to encounter Zheng Quchi, a "rogue" in his playing style, which resulted in a mediocre and messy outcome.
