753 If you don't let me, you will murder your husband
Of course, it is a bit too much to describe Xuan Shaoqi as stupid. Xuan Shaoqi is upright and tough. The Ninth Prince has always admired Wang Jinling's gentlemanliness, and now he also begins to appreciate Xuan Shaoqi's toughness. He sincerely hopes that these two people can always be like this.
After this battle, the strength of Xuanxiao Palace will be greatly reduced, and Xuan Shaoqi will be very busy in a short period of time. However, with his 30,000 people, plus the mechanisms and traps of Xuanxiao Palace, it will not be difficult to wipe out the enemy. Of course, to be on the safe side, he will bring Xuanxiao Palace along.
"How many disciples of Xuanxiao Palace are there who can go into battle?" The Ninth Prince did not know how to be polite at all. As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked Xuan Shaoqi to help.
Xuan Shaoqi looked at the Ninth Uncle in shock: "Are you planning to wipe out the enemy army?"
If this were not the case, there would be no need for the Ninth Prince to ask how much combat power he had, but to directly send as many disciples as possible to fight.
The Ninth Prince's words imply that he would mobilize all the strength of Xuanxiao Palace. After paying such a huge price, of course he would kill the opponent without leaving a single piece of armor.
"Why? Can't I?"
Xuan Shaoqi admitted that his heartbeat quickened because of what the Ninth Emperor Uncle said, but the reality was: "It is difficult."
The Ninth Prince sneered and said nonchalantly, "Palace Master Xuan, Feng Qingchen can kill your troops at the foot of the mountain, so of course you can also kill the coalition forces of the three countries at the foot of the mountain."
The Ninth Prince did not say "we" but only mentioned Xuan Shaoqi, which means that all the credit for this battle belongs only to Xuan Shaoqi.
But don't forget, while gaining credit, you will also make enemies. Although it is inevitable that Xuanxiao Palace and Dongling, Xiling, and Nanling will become enemies, there is still room for recovery. If the other party is wiped out in the name of Xuanxiao Palace, then there will be no room for recovery between the two sides.
The Ninth Prince is making use of everyone to the fullest. His words are very passionate and easy to agree to. Fortunately, Xuan Shaoqi was not carried away by the expected victory. After hearing what the Ninth Prince said, he calmed down and thought about the gains and losses of this battle.
Wang Jinling smiled but said nothing. Feng Qingchen looked troubled. After struggling for a while, he could not help but ask, "Is this a good idea? Let the other side's 100,000 troops be wiped out. What if the other side gets angry? Xuanxiao Palace can stop 100,000 troops, but what about 300,000? 500,000?"
You have to know that it was a coalition of three countries. Xuanxiao Palace could be an enemy of one country, but it would never dare to offend all three countries at the same time. Once it came to that point, that would be the moment when Xuanxiao Palace would disappear from the Jiuzhou continent.
"It's not 100,000, it's 30,000. To Xuanxiao Palace, it's an army of 100,000, but to Xiling and the others, it's only 30,000 troops. Xiling Tianlei and Nanling Jinfan will feel sorry for these 30,000 troops, but they don't have the ability to mobilize more troops. As for Dongling? I promise that as long as I'm in Dongling, the people of Dongling will not rush towards Xuanxiao Palace." The Ninth Prince was determined to make sure that the 100,000 troops would never return, and he even made a promise that only the Emperor of Dongling could make.
After this battle, the person who was really offended was not Xuan Shaoqi, but Lan Jiuqing. You must know that Xiling Tianlei and Nanling Jinfan were instigated by Lan Jiuqing to send troops to Xuanxiao Palace, but not only did they gain nothing, but they also suffered heavy casualties. Based on the tempers of those two people, they will definitely blame Lan Jiuqing for this.
"It's still too risky. Don't forget that Xiling Tianlei is the crown prince of Xiling. Unless there are major accidents, it's only a matter of time before he ascends the throne. Even if he can't take revenge now, what if he wants to send troops to Xuanxiao Palace when he sits firmly on the throne of Emperor Xiling and remembers the humiliation of the battle in Xuanxiao Palace?" Xuan Shaoqi was not worried, but Feng Qingchen raised a lot of things that needed to be worried about.
Sometimes you can't fight a war just with passion, you have to consider the consequences. If you destroy these 100,000 troops, the consequences will be too serious for Xuanxiao Palace, and Xuanxiao Palace may not be able to afford it.
However, the Ninth Prince would never let these 100,000 troops leave. He looked at Feng Qingchen and asked, "So, do you have any better ideas? Let them withdraw their troops? Will they agree?"
Whether to fight or not is a question. At this time, even if Xuanxiao Palace wants to retreat, it has no way to retreat.
"No, we must fight, but we can't let Xuanxiao Palace bear all the responsibilities." Feng Qingchen looked at the Ninth Uncle with clear eyes, without flinching, silently expressing his insistence and telling the Ninth Uncle not to think of throwing the blame on Xuan Shaoqi alone.
“Oh? Then how do we fight?” This meant that the Ninth Prince was willing to take a step back.
"Let's fight as you said, Uncle Ninth Prince. However, the credit for this battle does not belong to Xuanxiao Palace, but to all of us. Uncle Ninth Prince, you should have joined forces with Xuanxiao Palace at the last moment." How could Xuan Shaoqi be the only one to bear the wrath of the Three Kingdoms? Uncle Ninth Prince has muddied the waters, but he wants to withdraw cleanly. It's too much.
Wang Jinling and Xuan Shaoqi looked at the two people who were arguing with each other and suddenly laughed. Compared with last night, Feng Qingchen was much cuter today.
Fortunately, Feng Qingchen was still Feng Qingchen, and did not blindly side with the Ninth Uncle, otherwise the two of them would be really sad. But when the two were happy, the Ninth Uncle was unhappy, and raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the reason?"
Yes, the Ninth Prince and Wang Jinling were planning to attack Xuanxiao Palace, but in the end they joined forces with Xuanxiao Palace to attack Dongling, Xiling and Nanling. What kind of thing is this? No one would believe it if I told others about it.
Of course, Emperor Dongling, Tianlei Xiling, and Jinfan Nanling would believe it, but they would definitely hate the Ninth Uncle to death, thinking that this was a trap set up by the Ninth Uncle and Xuanxiao Palace in order to trap them to death.
"The wife of the Palace Master of Xuanxiao Palace is my aunt. Is this reason enough?" Feng Qingchen raised his chin slightly and revealed a charming smile.
Beauty is a disaster, and Feng Qingchen doesn't mind being branded as a seductive woman. The Ninth Prince and Wang Jinling turned against her at the critical moment.
Anyway, she had already created a feud with Xiling Tianlei and Nanling Jinfan, so she was not afraid of one more.
"It's a bit far-fetched." The Ninth Uncle coughed, and seeing the warning in Feng Qingchen's eyes, he naturally added: "It's not impossible."
However, he was even more unlucky. Lan Jiuqing had to bear the revenge of Xiling Tianlei and Nanling Jinfan, and he also had to face the accusations of the three countries, all because of a woman who disregarded national interests.
The Ninth Prince was in a great trouble, but he had to swallow the bitter fruit himself.
"Since it's feasible, let's do it. It's getting late and we should set off." Feng Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that the Ninth Prince would not agree. If he refused to agree, what could she do?
The Ninth Prince nodded helplessly, then turned to ask Xiang Xuan Shaoqi: "Palace Master Xuan, what about you? Do you have any objections?"
Although he would take the greatest risk by doing so, things would become even more troublesome if he released those 50,000 people.
Xuan Shaoqi used his troops last night. The generals of Dongling, Xiling and Nanling must have known that he had conspired with Xuanxiao Palace a long time ago and let them leave alive. By then, more things will be revealed.
After weighing the pros and cons, the Ninth Uncle had no choice but to agree to Feng Qingchen's suggestion and shoulder part of the responsibility...
