Zhang Zhe wasn't the most eloquent, so why couldn't he hold on for even a short while?
If Shen Zhiyi is really gone, she, Yan Ling, Xie Wei, and Jiang Xuening are all the culprits!
They all assured Shen Zhiyi that they would bring her back to her homeland safely!
Seeing Chu Yuan clutching the soldier's hand with bloodshot eyes, Yan Ling quickly stepped forward and took her hand. The soldier also took the opportunity to step back a few steps and knelt on the ground with a thud. "Reporting to the Crown Prince's wife, the princess has been rescued and is not in immediate danger. However, the Prince of Dayue has said that if Lord Zhang does not agree to the condition of ceding three cities, he would not mind rewarding the princess to the three armies..."
"Damn it! Has this Prince of the Great Moon gone mad? Isn't he afraid that our massive army will raze their tiny Javanese kingdom to the ground?!"
This was the first time in Yan Mu's life that he had encountered such an arrogant and shameless opponent who did not take Da Gan seriously at all and whose behavior was so despicable and vile that it was outrageous.
People like that, what's the point of negotiating peace? We should just bring our troops to the city gates and make them suffer!
"All soldiers, listen to my command! We are ordered to rescue the princess, kill the Great Yue traitors, and make them get out of Daqian territory!"
In an instant, bugle calls rang out in the military camp. At Yan Ling's command, everyone quickly lined up and prepared to go.
A unified voice shouted: "Slay the Great Yue traitors! Slay the Great Yue traitors!"
"Save the princess! The Yan family army will be invincible!"
"Kill! Make those Great Yue bandits get out of Da Gan territory!"
Chu Yuan was thrilled by the scene, but she suddenly remembered the brocade pouch Xie Wei had left behind before he left, and frowned slightly.
Rescuing Shen Zhiyi was of course urgent, but Xie Wei's plan couldn't be ruined either.
So, without making a sound, he tugged at Yan Ling's sleeve. After she noticed, she ordered the army to prepare to break camp, and then brought Chu Yuan back to the tent to talk.
Unexpectedly, Xie Wei's plan was exactly the same as theirs, but it wouldn't be so quick. They would have to wait a few more days. At that time, he would find a way to make the Prince of Pingnan believe that the Yan family attacked the cities that had been captured by Dayue because they wanted to submit to him, the Prince of Pingnan.
By using this method to lower the guard of the Prince of Pingnan, not only will Jiang Xuening be saved, but Xie Wei's situation will also change drastically. He can then find another opportunity to bring down the Prince of Pingnan in one fell swoop!
However, it's really difficult to secure a few days of respite for Shen Zhiyi...
In the end, Chu Yuan decided to go into the Dayue army camp first to buy time for the Yan family army and also to rescue Shen Zhiyi.
Yan Ling naturally disagreed with such a risky move. "No way! That Prince Dayue is a madman. Who knows what he might do? You're pregnant. I can't let you risk your life to save Chen Zhiyi!"
"Yue'er, at least think about me. How heartbroken I would be if something happened to you? What would be the point of all this effort I'm putting in right now?"
Chu Yuan understood Yan Ling's apprehension.
However, he had no idea what his own resources were, which was why he was so worried.
Chu Yuan decided to reveal a little bit to him.
Putting aside everything else, her ever-reliable Thunderclap Bomb alone would guarantee that she could walk sideways in the Great Yue army, and protecting Shen Zhiyi and rescuing Zhang Zhe would be a piece of cake.
Moreover, she wasn't going for nothing; she was going with Yan Mu's letter, pretending to be open to discussing the cession of three cities, and after rescuing Zhang Zhe, she was to let him deal with the other side for a few days.
Given that Prince Dayue is physically strong but not very bright, there is a 99.99% chance that he was deceived.
Finally, Yan Ling was persuaded, and Yan Mu wrote a letter. Yan Ling accompanied Chu Yuan, and a carriage escorted her to the vicinity of the Dayue camp. Then, she watched Chu Yuan go inside.
When the soldiers of Dayue saw that she was just a weak and helpless young woman, who wasn't even carrying any weapons, but was dressed very beautifully and was quite pretty, they all burst into laughter. "Does Dayue have no one else? They actually sent a little girl to negotiate?"
"Such a beautiful girl, instead of being pampered and cherished, she has to do these hard and tiring jobs that only men do. Men really don't know how to cherish women!"
"Little sister, why don't you stay in Daqian and just choose someone from our Dayue army camp to marry?"
We will definitely take good care of you.
Oh right, you've already been married, haven't you?
"It's alright, we Yue men don't mind women remarrying. Unlike you Daqian people with all those ridiculous rules, we women are more popular the more beautiful they are, even more popular than clueless young girls. After all... hahaha, those who know, know!"
As Chu Yuan walked toward the Dayue Prince's tent, she heard foul language and offensive remarks all around her, but she kept her pace steady and her expression calm, as if she couldn't hear the Dayue soldiers' teasing at all.
