Chapter 253 Heading to Western Chu
Qiao Nian Nian and his party set out for Western Chu, while Qiao Chuanbai led the army to the border.
Things turned out just as Xia Rongyu had expected.
Qiao Chuanbai suddenly took the soldiers away, and the barbarians were suspicious at first, but later, when they were sure that there was no one at the border, they wanted to start a war.
Just when everything was planned, the border had an additional 100,000 troops than before.
Originally, there were only 150,000 troops at the border, but now it has directly increased to 250,000.
The barbarians immediately panicked.
They wondered if the Great Xia Dynasty had sent troops to attack them again, but they all surrendered. Could it be that their previous surrender was not sincere enough?
The barbarians urgently looted some treasures and sent them to the Great Xia Dynasty, and by the way, they inquired about the Great Xia Dynasty's attitude.
Before anyone could get to know about this, another 100,000 troops were added to the border.
Now, the barbarians were completely panicked.
After Qiao Chuanbai took his men back, General Huo led his troops back to Beijing.
The Tianxuan Sect is not a good thing. The Third Prince is with the people of the Tianxuan Sect, so the Third Prince is not a good thing either.
Emperor Jing'an is not a tyrant, so he naturally would not do such things to harm loyal ministers.
"This bastard actually colluded with the people of the Tianxuan Sect behind my back."
What happened in Yue State had been sent back by Xia Rongyu in a letter.
He thought that only the Third Prince was colluding with the Tianxuan Sect, but he didn't expect that the Concubine Gui was the same.
The barbarians also became honest.
The barbarians were shocked by the Great Xia Dynasty and saw the strength of the Great Xia Dynasty. The 350,000 troops gathered at the border were almost more than their population. They were no match for the Great Xia Dynasty.
Emperor Jing'an knew what Xia Rongyu and others had done in Yue State, and he hadn't smiled for several days.
When Emperor Jing'an saw what the third brother did, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.
They had no interest in the barbarians.
What's the matter? Do they want to kill his father like Lunbruzi did?
Emperor Jing'an was merciless: "Keep a close eye on the third prince and the imperial concubine."
After all, there were no resources in his place, and he had nothing. It was useless to snatch it back.
At this time, the secret guard came in and handed over the things about the third prince that he had investigated recently to the emperor.
They directly sent important officials to understand the situation, and the Great Xia Dynasty did not need to say much, just let them do their best, and they would not take action against the barbarians. The
Great Xia Dynasty has General Huo and various civil and military officials, so there is nothing wrong.
It seems that the Duke's Mansion needs to be knocked down, otherwise people would think that the Duke's Mansion is the world in the capital!
In the future, whether to provoke the Great Xia Dynasty or not.
So the barbarians can put their hearts at ease.
What a courage, dare to do such a thing under his nose.
On the contrary, he trusts these loyal ministers very much. Even though General Huo has a large army, Emperor Jing'an does not suspect the Huo family at all.
In addition, Qiao Niannian, born to the daughter of the Huo family, is simply the lucky star of the Great Xia Dynasty. His life was saved by Qiao Niannian.
The accident in the imperial mausoleum was also solved by Qiao Niannian.
Even when his mother got into trouble, it was Qiao Niannian who helped. With Qiao Niannian's magical powers, if the Huo family really wanted to be the emperor, it would be a piece of cake. But
the Huo family worked diligently and devotedly to protect the people of the Great Xia Dynasty.
If he still suspected the Huo family because of this, wouldn't he have chilled the hearts of the Huo family? Although
the affairs of Yue State have passed, the situation in Western Chu is not much better than that of Yue State.
He had received a letter from a spy before, saying that the emperor of Western Chu was seriously ill and the prince was in charge of the government and was responsible for supervising the country.
This would not be a big deal, but as soon as the prince took over Western Chu, he sent troops to the Barbarians to help them attack Daxia.
Now, Western Chu has not given any explanation to Daxia.
As the prince of Daxia, it is naturally very dangerous for Xia Rongyu to go to Western Chu.
Apart from anything else, even if the people of Daxia knew the identities of the two, there would probably be chaos.
Xia Rongyu and others have already stepped into the territory of Western Chu.
They disguised themselves as merchants and came to Western Chu in a horse-drawn carriage.
Western Chu can compete with Daxia, and it is even colder here than Daxia.
As soon as they entered the territory of Western Chu, Qiao Niannian and her group bought two sets of winter clothes each.
The first snow has already fallen in Western Chu, and now there is still a thick layer of snow on the streets, and pedestrians walking on it are extremely careful.
The appearance of the group of people is still changed.
There is a lot of grievances between Western Chu and the Great Xia Dynasty. Qiao Chuanbai designed to destroy the 50,000-strong army of Western Chu. This hatred is real.
If Ye Qiuping had not wanted to absorb the luck of Western Chu, they would really not be willing to come to Western Chu to take risks.
In Western Chu, after rushing for more than ten days, the group entered the capital and found that the streets were decorated with lights and colors, and everywhere was red.
Some people who were busy rushing on the road forgot that according to the date, the New Year was in two days.
Some people found an inn to stay. There were not many people in the inn at this time, after all, it was the end of the year. Everyone went home for the New Year, and there were fewer people staying in the inn.
When the shopkeeper saw Qiao Niannian and her group, the enthusiastic family welcomed them in.
After entering Xichu, Centipede began to pay attention to the situation in Xichu. However, looking left and right, the people in Xichu live and work in peace and contentment. There is no sign of the country's demise.
He couldn't help but question: "Isn't Ye Qiuping trying to absorb the luck of Xichu? Why is there such a big difference between Xichu and Yue?"
Yue was almost destroyed, and it was thanks to Yuan Buluqi's efforts to save the country.
But Xichu has not changed at all.
Near the end of the year, there are too many people doing business here, and the carriages can't pass through, so they need to get off and walk.
Qiao Niannian explained: "Not every time you absorb luck, the country will be destroyed."
"The reason why Yue needed to perish was because the national teacher had issued a ban. He had printed the magic to open the country's fortune in the jade seal, and the jade seal was taken away by Yuan Buluqi."
"If Yuan Buluqi had not taken the jade seal away, it would have fallen into the hands of Tianxuanmen, and using the emperor of Yue as a medium, it could have directly absorbed the fortune of Yue."
Centipede understood instantly.
"That means that Xichu also has a medium selected by Ye Qiuping, and I don't know which prince is so unlucky."
Through previous events, they could also judge some signs.
Xia Rong and Siwei were the most active. As soon as Centipede spoke, he guessed who it was.
"I'm afraid it's not a prince this time, but the Crown Prince of Xichu."
Centipede frowned: "Crown Prince, why would he do this? This is his world from now on. He actually wants to destroy the entire Xichu, is he being controlled by someone?"
No one said anything, after all, no one saw the Crown Prince, and no one could guess the reason.
When it was time for dinner, before everyone ordered, the waiter brought the sumptuous dinner to the room.
