Speak up, you idiot!
Jiang, Jiang Jingqian...
How come he is here?!
Caught in the act!!! Jiang Jingyuan couldn't help but look stunned and took a big step back.
On the street, the girl suddenly turned around, her back facing the figure in white, her dark eyes trembling wildly.
Then...she acted as if nothing had happened and walked away from the person behind her step by step.
"Your Highness Jing Yuan..."
Jiang Jingqian's resentful voice came from behind.
Jiang Jingyuan froze in place for a moment, not moving forward, and not daring to look back out of guilt.
"I told you to go to Lian's house last night or early this morning..."
Inside the magic weapon killing realm, Xu Qinglin watched this scene and couldn't help but speak out.
Jiang Jingyuan ignored her.
Xu Qinglin sighed weakly and said nothing more.
"Your Highness Jing Yuan..."
As the faint voice spoke, Jiang Jingqian walked around to her, took two steps back, and stared at her with his head down.
The slanting sunlight was bright, and his white clothes seemed to be glowing, blurring his figure and facial features.
Jiang Jingqian didn't say anything else, but just pursed his lips and stared at her with resentment and grievance.
——Because it’s useless to say it.
Those people in the North said that they wanted him to follow Jiang Jingyuan and have high hopes for Jiang Jingyuan, but in the final analysis, what qualifications did he have?
Even if Jiang Jingyuan didn't take him with him, what could he say? He had no right to complain or blame.
It's annoying to say it out loud... Jiang Jingqian pursed his lips, stopped looking at the girl in front of him, and just buried his head lower.
He doesn't complain or blame others, but just puts his grievances in front of others. That shows Jiang Jingyuan's conscience.
——After all, if you meet someone who doesn't care, no matter what you say or do, it will be of no use.
Jiang Jingyuan: "!!!"
"I..." Jiang Jingyuan pursed his lips and uttered a dry sound with difficulty.
And then nothing happened.
Speak up, you idiot!
Jiang Jingyuan's eyes were wandering, his hands were twisted together, and he stood there obediently, sweating like a villain in his heart.
She could leave without explaining, but...
Just because of such a trivial matter, I became estranged from Jiang Jingqian and broke up with him. It was unnecessary and such a pity.
At this time, Xu Qinglin couldn't help but speak again:
"Find something and say you found it specially for him. Be gentle and say a few nice words and it will be over."
Jiang Jingyuan: "..."
Jiang Jingyuan's heart twisted as he thought, "Let's not even talk about whether he would believe that I would actually go out of my way to find something for him. Even if I wanted to be soft-hearted, I couldn't do it..."
She didn't forget the time when she imitated Hua Simiao to say nice things, and the time when she tried to act coquettishly not long ago and Jiang Jingjian's reaction.
Just admit my mistake... Jiang Jingyuan thought, raised his head and opened his mouth: "I was wrong..."
Wow.
Jiang Jingyuan opened her mouth, the unfinished words stuck in her throat, she stared blankly at the distant sky.
She suddenly wanted to pull Jiang Jingqian around with one hand, point to the sky with the other, and say to him kindly:
"Look, there's a Jiang Jingjian in the sky."
Then he turned around and ran.
High in the sky, where thin clouds converge, an illusory "gap" appears, like a giant mirror leading to the two worlds.
In the illusory mirror, Jiang Jingjian, whose figure was so illusory that it almost blended into the sky, tilted his head and looked at her with a pair of dark eyes.
He seemed to be humming constantly and looked unhappy.
Jiang Jingyuan: "...!!"
Jiang Jingyuan sighed softly, and the few traces of guilt and shame in his heart disappeared.
"Let's go." She pulled up one of Jiang Jingqian's sleeves and dragged him back.
Let’s go and find a place where Jiang Jingjian can’t see me so I can apologize to you.
Jiang Jingqian was caught off guard and staggered when she pulled him. He raised his head and looked at the back of the girl in front of him with a depressed look.
…………
"despair."
A cup of tea was placed steadily in front of Jiang Jingqian.
Across from him, Jiang Jingyuan said seriously, "It's my fault for not telling you in advance today."
"I didn't tell you in advance" does not mean "I didn't bring you with me", the meaning is clear.
Absurdly straightforward.
Jiang Jingqian understood, pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, and nodded slowly.
Just like what he said, Jiang Jingyuan could have ignored him.
Jiang Jingyuan's directness now shows his sincerity in wanting to maintain this relationship and shows that he values him.
After a moment, Jiang Jingqian just pursed his lips to reveal a faint smile, and said softly: "I'm glad that His Highness Jing Yuan is okay."
——This is the past.
Jiang Jingyuan nodded, glanced at the tea in front of him, and said lightly:
"This tea is good."
Jiang Jingqian raised his teacup, took a sip, curled his eyes and mouth, and responded:
"Yes."
The two of them ate fruits and cakes and drank tea in silence.
a long time.
Jiang Jingyuan suddenly put down his teacup, turned his head to look out the window, and said casually:
"I don't know...how's the battle going with Pingjiang Hou..."
Across from her, Jiang Jingqian also put down his cup, curled his lips slightly, didn't respond, just looked up at her profile.
Jiang Jingyuan turned his head and looked at him nonchalantly.
Now that everyone is here, let’s send them out to work quickly.
Don't keep looking at her.
…………
Lin State, in the city.
"Hu——" A burly middle-aged man let out a long breath.
He turned around, smiled, and said to the person behind him, "Zhao An is still strategic. In front of Zhao An, they were immediately powerless."
Behind him.
Sui Zhao'an shook his long-stemmed pipe, smiled slightly, and said, "As your Excellency's right-hand men, we naturally understand your intentions. If you are busy and forget, we will remind you in time."
The burly middle-aged man was obviously stunned when he heard this.
Then, he seemed to understand something and laughed.
He turned around, raised his hand and patted Sui Zhaoan's shoulder heavily, "Zhaoan knows me."
rear.
Everyone watched this scene expressionlessly, and they all despised it in their hearts:
"Bah, flatterer!"
…………
At night, the sky on the battlefield is always gray, as if covered by a layer of gray sand.
It's dead silent. Just one glance up at the sky and you'll fall into a depressing and frantic confusion.
The soul screamed and fell into the bloody sand, rolling and struggling, but the body seemed to have taken root in the soil and still stood there.
They stood motionless, one by one, straight and erect in the darkness. The pale moonlight outlined straight lines and ghostly shadows.
In the camp of the Yuan Kingdom.
The intricate silver-white armor made a crisp sound when rubbing against each other, and a heavy muffled sound when stepping on the ground.
Marquis Pingjiang walked into the tent, still wearing his armor, and sat down. He raised his hand to pick up the teacup beside him, poured the bitter tea into it and gulped it down.
"Bang!" The teacup was smashed onto the table, and the remaining tea spilled out.
Marquis Pingjiang sat in his seat with a gloomy expression.
In the silence, one person pursed his lips, finally took a step forward, and whispered, "Don't worry, my lord."
"I'm not in a hurry." Pingjiang Hou had just left the battlefield, and the murderous look in his eyes had not faded. He raised his hand and waved it casually, and the silver-white armor made another crisp sound.
Everyone in the tent fell silent again.
Pingjiang Hou said in a deep voice:
"The last time we fought that guy in the North was twenty years ago. He was so impulsive and aggressive back then, but he has grown up over the years. No matter how we provoked him, he remained in the city and refused to come out."
Everyone listened, nodded slowly, and said with a heavy face, "Yes, he wants to wear us down." "After so many years of peace, that guy has made such progress?"
"We in the Northern Territory can't afford to waste time, and there's also His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..." One person narrowed his eyes thoughtfully and spoke slowly, "I'm afraid His Royal Highness the Crown Prince absolutely can't wait... If he gets impatient, it'll be easy for someone to take advantage of us, and chaos will break out."
Everyone nodded slowly, and a thoughtful look appeared on their faces.
Looking ahead and behind, I am most afraid of the king's suspicion -
This battle is difficult.
It has come to a standstill, wasting human resources and time. The most frightening thing is that one cannot sit still, but it is inevitable that one cannot sit still.
"My Lord." Someone suddenly spoke.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and Pingjiang Hou also raised his eyes and looked at him.
The man hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "Why don't we try Qiyun's previous method?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was filled with disappointment. They looked away, shook their heads and sighed.
The man's heart sank suddenly, he understood something, lowered his head and said no more.
Marquis Pingjiang also looked away and said nothing.
Meng Qiyun smiled. After all, this person was talking about the idea he had proposed before, so he should give him some face.
Meng Qiyun looked at him and said with a smile:
"That method is too slow. It will only work if we force the Lin people into a corner. But by then, we will also be in a hurry."
Then what’s the point of that idea you proposed before… The man listened, responded, and smiled tiredly on his face.
"Then we must find a way to get inside them and force them to send troops to fight from within." One person said in a deep voice while turning a ring on his thumb.
This is the only way... Everyone nodded secretly.
After a pause, everyone fell into deep thought again. It is easy to say, but how to do it in practice?
Thinking about it, one person asked:
"Twenty years have passed, and that guy has changed so much that our previous understanding of him is now obsolete. Where should we start now?"
——This is basically a common problem among civil and military officials of all countries.
We focus too much on ourselves and our own position, and also on things related to ourselves, ignoring the growth and changes of potential enemies.
If we continue to rely on old information to make judgments and decisions, let alone whether it will succeed, the fear is that if things fail, we will alert the enemy.
It is better not to act rashly than to act rashly.
You can choose not to move, but you must move.
These ten cities are related to the succession of their crown prince. If they wait for a few years for just one city, who knows if their crown prince will want to chop them down...
Everyone fell silent again.
Even the person who made the suggestion stopped turning the ring on his hand, tilted his face slightly, frowned and thought deeply.
The dim candlelight flickered slowly, and amidst the dark shadows of ghosts on the ground, the tent was once again filled with a depressing and dead silence.
Suddenly, a hand suddenly lifted the door curtain, and the person rushed in, too anxious to care about anything else.
His hair stood on end, his facial features twisted in wild fear, and when he looked up he suddenly saw the figure sitting in the main seat.
He suddenly screamed in panic—
"My Lord! My Lord—"
"Prince Huai has come down with the Prince of Changsheng!!!"
Everyone in the tent suddenly saw darkness.
They all raised their hands to cover their hearts and fell straight back.
