General An Yuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thankful for Princess Qingyun, who had not only improved the army's meals along the way, but was now also providing provisions to solve their urgent problem.
After returning to their tent, Qin Qianluo and Xuan You went straight into the space. Fortunately, they were all disguised as secret guards, so they wouldn't arouse suspicion if they didn't show up on weekdays. Otherwise, they really wouldn't have dared to do this.
At three-quarters past midnight, Qin Qianluo and An Yue set off. With their previous experience of lying in wait, they quickly infiltrated the imperial city. An Yue led Qin Qianluo to General Hua's residence.
After sneaking in quietly, Dark Moon released a sleeping gas to confirm that Hua Lingxiao's family members had all been affected before bringing them into the space. On their way to Hua Lingxiao's daughter's room, they almost alerted the guards who hadn't been drugged.
Fortunately, Qin Qianlu reacted quickly and took An Yue into the space, thus avoiding being discovered by the guards. After confirming that it was safe, she came out again, took An Yue away, and the two quietly left the General's Mansion.
After leaving the imperial city along the original route, they quickly headed to the camp. Only after the two of them entered Qin Qianluo's camp did General An Yuan, who was hiding in the shadows, breathe a sigh of relief.
Knowing that Princess Qingyun had a spatial ability and that nothing bad would happen, he still wanted to see it with his own eyes to feel at ease. After looking around and finding nothing unusual, he returned to his own tent.
Qin Qianluo and the other person were unaware of this matter. They went directly into the space. Looking at the people in the space, Qin Qianluo lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before leaving the space and quietly arriving at an empty tent.
After looking around to make sure the patrolling men weren't paying attention, he stepped inside, temporarily settled Hua Lingxiao's family there, and then went to General An Yuan's tent.
She called out softly, "General Yin, I am Qin Qianluo. I have something to discuss with you. May I come in?"
Upon hearing this, General An Yuan immediately stood up, went to the front of the tent, and let Qin Qianluo in. He smiled and asked her, "It's so late, what brings you here, Princess?"
Without wasting words, Qin Qianluo directly stated that she had found a way to bring Hua Lingxiao's family back and arranged for them to stay in an empty tent, which General An Yuan was instructed to make good use of.
Although Yin Yichen already knew, he still pretended to be shocked and went to the tent with Princess Qingyun to take a look, and even praised her.
After reporting the matter, Qin Qianluo returned to her tent, lay down to rest, and since the person had already been brought over, she could leave the rest to General An Yuan and the others.
I need to rest well. After the capital is captured, the opium will be destroyed. I will be busy. I need to rest more these next few days.
The next day, I heard that General An Yuan had taken a bewildered Madam Hua to the battlefield to negotiate with Hua Lingxiao. I wondered what the outcome would be and whether there would be any good news.
Qin Qianluo had already decided that if Hua Lingxiao still chose to protect Emperor Xuanyuan, she would have no choice but to use a high-precision sniper rifle to resolve the battle.
During the last ambush on Youming, she hid herself very well and did not arouse suspicion, which pleased Qin Qianluo. Therefore, she was not panicked this time and always had a way to solve the problem.
General An Yuan brought Madam Hua to the battlefield. As the battle cries arose, Hua Lingxiao saw a familiar figure on the battlefield, his pupils dilated, and he stared intently at that figure.
How could his wife be on the other side? When did the general of Tianxuan Kingdom kidnap his wife? In a flash, countless questions flashed through Hua Lingxiao's mind.
Deep down, he felt somewhat relieved. He was not unaware that his emperor's actions, including confining his family to the palace, were all aimed at threatening him.
But now that Madam is in General Tianxuan's hands, should I resist? If I don't resist, what will happen to the rest of the family? If I do resist, I'm afraid Madam will perish.
General An Yuan seemed to have read Hua Lingxiao's thoughts and said loudly, "General Hua, we have long admired your illustrious reputation. Your military strategies are deeply respected by us. They are like a thunderclap in spring, shaking our hearts."
The current Xuanyuan is already at its last gasp, its fate has been exhausted, its internal forces are scarce and it is difficult to defend against enemies, and it is isolated and helpless from the outside.
Like a candle flickering in the wind, barely clinging to life, the general, though full of passion, could not single-handedly support the edifice; his lofty ambitions could not reverse the decline.
It is only natural for a general to worry about his family. Please rest assured that we have already safely evacuated all your family members.
They have been carefully protected and meticulously cared for, with absolutely no oversights. Why then, General, insist on continuing to struggle to prop up this crumbling, shaky old dynasty?
As the ancients said, a good bird chooses its tree to perch on, and a wise minister chooses his lord to serve. If the general were to follow the trend of the times and submit to our dynasty at this moment, he would not only be able to reunite with his family and enjoy the happiness of family life.
Furthermore, you can fully realize your extraordinary ambitions, achieve great deeds, and leave your mark on history within the vast expanse of our nation. This is truly a wise and outstanding choice. I earnestly hope that the General will consider this carefully and make a decision as soon as possible.
Upon hearing this, Hua Lingxiao closed his eyes and did not come out to fight. Instead, he turned around and went back. General An Yuan was not in a hurry. In any case, his family was in his hands, so there was no need to worry.
Thinking this, General An Yuan took Madam Hua back to the camp. After settling her in, he returned to his own tent to await Hua Lingxiao's reply.
Upon hearing this, Qin Qianluo frowned, then slipped into her spatial dimension to discuss something with An Yue. In the end, they both nodded, and Qin Qianluo decided to visit Hua Lingxiao that evening.
After dinner, Qin Qianluo set off with An Yue, avoiding the guards at the gate, and quietly entered Hua Lingxiao's residence, where they waited patiently.
After having dinner, Hua Lingxiao returned to his temporary residence. As soon as he entered the house, he sensed a different aura. He drew his sword, looked around the room warily, and coldly shouted, "Come out!"
