Ministers headed by Murong Qingyu demanded that the emperor immediately dispatch troops to drive back the Dongxiang people.
After hearing Mingyue's words, Qian Yeming laughed out loud.
"So what are Father's plans? Has he sent troops?"
"Upon hearing this, Emperor Dezheng was furious. Because of his wife, relations between Northern Wei and Nanyue were harmonious. Emperor Dezheng expected that with Northern Wei as an ally, Dongyang in the northeast and Xiliang in the northwest wouldn't dare take any action. So, he sent envoys to Hangu Pass to ask General Pei to return and lead the troops."
"puff--"
Murong Xiao, who was drinking tea, was so irritated by Mingyue's serious yet extremely funny words that she burst into laughter.
She really hoped that when she returned, Murong Qingyu had not been angered to death by Emperor Dezheng.
It was obvious that the tough civilians surrounded by the Dongxiang army were another private army hidden by Murong Qingyu. After Qian Yechen wiped out his 100,000-strong private army, he had to protect this private army at all costs.
Time is of the essence now. If they want to prevent their private army from suffering a fatal blow, they must immediately dispatch troops from the border to encircle the Dongxiang army, and then use internal and external forces to coordinate. This problem will be solved.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Dezheng, while furious, sent people to the distant northern border to ask General Pei to come back. By the time General Pei gathered his troops, I'm afraid the opportunity there would be gone.
Now that the abdication was imminent, Murong Qingyu had to take charge and maintain control of the situation. Seeing his private army of over a hundred thousand men about to be devoured, he probably wanted to destroy Emperor Dezheng.
When Qian Yeming saw Murong Xiao choked while drinking water, he immediately and considerately helped her to calm down.
They were all whispering that the Master had become a wife-slave, but she still didn't believe it. Looking at the Master, whose eyes only held his wife, Mingyue felt a surge of emotion. The once aloof and withdrawn Master was long gone; the woman before him had completely melted him with her love.
"Master, now we have to wait for them to fight each other. Is there anything we can do?"
"Continue to gather intelligence, especially keeping an eye on Xiliang. Also, send people to follow the members of the Divine Cult and monitor their every move."
"yes."
"Be careful." Qian Yeming added worriedly at the end.
Mingyue smiled and said, "Don't worry, my lord. We all take our lives very seriously. You and your wife should rest and have lunch first. I will arrange your departure."
"There's no need to rush for a day or two. Let's wait until Baili Feng feels a little better, then we can take him out of the city. It's too dangerous for him to stay in Xiliang."
"yes."
After Mingyue left, Murong Xiao gossiped with great interest, "Mingyue is beautiful and has a good personality. I think she and Jincao are quite a match!"
"Why are you suddenly concerned about Mingyue's lifelong affairs? And you even pulled out the strong grass..."
Qian Yeming narrowed his eyes and asked, "You don't know something, do you? Is there a spark between them?"
"In my previous life, I vaguely felt that Mingyue liked Jincao. Later, on the day we died, the four of them followed you into death. The situation was critical at the time, and I didn't see clearly what happened to them in the end. But after Jincao was shot, I clearly saw Mingyue using her body to block the arrow for him. Mingyue died before Jincao, and I can see that Jincao's grief was more than just the death of his companions."
Qian Yeming was silent for a moment, then picked up Murong Xiao and said, "I will pay attention to their affairs.
