Qin Xun was taken aback upon hearing this, and suddenly remembered the incident when Xie Lingqin was injured.
"However, I will not kill you. Not only that, I will not hurt you, nor will I do anything underhanded behind your back."
Yuwen Shi suddenly said.
Qin Xun looked suspicious. "What does the Fifth Prince mean?"
"It doesn't mean anything. In short, the imperial order I received is to go to Western Xia, either to win them over or to keep them in check. I don't plan to do anything else."
this……
Qin Xun looked even more suspicious.
"Ha! It's strange that I would expose you if I'm like this. It's because I want things to go smoothly. I don't want things to be chaotic inside without any external troubles, with one person plotting against me every now and then. I'm too lazy to deal with that."
"Are you on the side of the Crown Prince, or the Emperor, or... do you have some other, greater ambition?"
"Ha! Me..." Yuwen An laughed, "I don't know either."
After Yuwen Shi finished speaking, he smiled again, then spurred his horse and galloped away that very year.
Qin Xun stood there stunned for a long time before finally following.
My heart remained unsettled for a long time.
What exactly does this fifth prince want? If he has no interest in fame or power, why must he obey the emperor's orders? If he is loyal to the emperor, why keep such a troublemaker around?
Even though she saw through everything, she warned him, but then did nothing.
This person's mind is too deep.
...
During this period, although there were no major battles on the border between the Southern Qi and the Northern Rong, there were quite a few frictions.
It could cause panic at any time.
As Qin Xun and the Fifth Prince traveled, they saw refugees fleeing famine, their faces filled with fear and unease.
...
Two days later.
Xie Lingqin arrived at the capital of Southern Qi.
There were no flowers to greet them, no red carpet to lay out; instead, upon entering the city, they were taken to the military camp by the emperor's jade carriage.
Looking out, hundreds of thousands of troops stood in full gear and solemnity, with the flags of the Southern Qi Kingdom fluttering in the wind.
After leaving the border, she had been listening to news of battles at the front, but all she saw along the way was a landscape of blooming flowers. Now, this chilling and murderous atmosphere truly belonged to the battlefield.
At the very front, the Emperor of Southern Qi stood with his hands behind his back, dressed in a yellow robe, surrounded by several generals, each with an air of noble bearing.
"Father."
Xie Lingqin walked over and called out softly.
The Southern Emperor's eyes instantly filled with moisture. "This is an army of 200,000 men, stationed outside the capital. I think you must get to know them and command them from now on."
"Father really understands me."
Xie Lingqin smiled, stepped forward, and bowed to the generals.
"Princess, this is unacceptable..."
"Of course." Xie Lingqin withdrew her hand, smiled, and turned to face the 200,000-strong army.
The surroundings were already quiet, with the 200,000-strong army remaining silent. However, after Xie Lingqin glanced at them, the surroundings seemed to become even quieter.
All the soldiers looked at the woman.
His gaze held the steadfastness born of battle, the gentle warmth of life's experiences, and the character that had grown step by step. There was no contempt in their eyes, yet not a hint of curiosity either.
After all, this woman was once the legitimate daughter of the Northern Rong General's Mansion. Those turbulent events, those loving stories between him and the Crown Prince, were known to all under heaven, like the wind. Now, can she swiftly and decisively guide them onto the right path?
They have expectations.
Nan Fenghuang also came over and stood behind Nan Huang.
She was actually a little worried; this was all too sudden. If Xie Lingqin didn't win over the troops today, then things might get very complicated later…
"Hey, Xie Lingqin, morale needs to be boosted. Say something nice, please."
"Need not."
Xie Lingqin responded coldly with two words to Nan Fenghuang's soft words.
Nanfeng...
"Father..."
The Emperor ignored her and looked at Xie Lingqin with a doting expression.
It was like an old father seeing his long-lost daughter.
Nan Fenghuang glanced sideways at the distance, where Xu Yiran stood with her hands behind her back, her calm demeanor radiating trust.
Well, if anything happens, you guys are here anyway, so why should I worry unnecessarily?
"Bei Rong!"
In the silence, Xie Lingqin suddenly spoke, then infused her with a Yun Clan technique, "Beirong, I want him destroyed, but I only have one option."
Xie Lingqin's voice resounded throughout the three armies.
"The military should not disturb the civilians!"
The four words spread far and wide.
As everyone's expressions shifted slightly, Xie Lingqin added, "What I want is peace and prosperity for the country, not just to vent my anger. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy."
As soon as he finished speaking, all was silent, but a moment later, a thunderous response erupted.
The sound was deafening.
Throughout history, when two countries clash, the common people suffer the most in the course of the world's conflicts.
Soldiers are also ordinary people; they have families. They are loyal to their country and protect their people, but they also have to protect their own families.
Xie Lingqin's words truly exemplify benevolent governance.
Nan Fenghuang curled her lip in disapproval.
When I told her that we needed to boost morale, she said no. And indeed, no. With just a few words, she acted as a reassurance, stabilizing the overall situation.
From then on, he won the hearts of the army, the people, and everyone.
Now they're famous.
From now on, this princess who knows nothing about education and has no political achievements will really be... well, let's just say she's finished.
"Father," Nan Fenghuang suddenly called out softly.
The Southern Emperor looked at her. "What's wrong?"
Nan Fenghuang said with a hint of bitterness, "It's nothing, I just suddenly feel that Nan Lingqin is not suitable to be a princess, she is more suited to..."
Nan Fenghuang's tone became even more sarcastic.
"She is suitable to be an empress."
South Phoenix Road.
Upon hearing this, the Southern Emperor's eyes gleamed slightly as he looked at Xie Lingqin. The sky was vast, and all things were boundless. She stood before the assembled generals, her slender frame seemingly about to bend, yet she stood firm, as if she were a solitary figure holding up half the sky.
"Maybe, it really is..."
The Southern Emperor murmured, "She is truly suited to be an empress."
He believed that everyone who was given a second chance at life and traveled to another world would have a special destiny.
Moreover, Yun Yishang had already foreseen her daughter's transmigration, because it was she who used spiritual magic to remove her daughter to protect her health.
And here, she truly returned.
After today.
The whole world knows that Princess Nan Lingqin of Southern Qi has returned.
---Aside---
Oh! Warfare is Xinzhi's weakness. Xinzhi is good at military strategy, but not so good at actual combat. If the description is a bit rough, please don't take it too seriously.
Then, just so you know, the female lead's name will be Nan Lingqin from now on~
