Chapter 167 The Queen of Mongolia who resembles Yun Qiao
If Dabalagan hadn't mentioned his woman, that is, Yun Qiao, he wouldn't have made this decision.
Once this decision was made, it meant that the lives of the three hundred soldiers would be disregarded.
Chen Jingyan is a ruthless person who will do anything to achieve his goals, but he is also very protective of his people.
That's three hundred warriors, not three, thirty.
That’s three hundred.
Behind those three hundred guards are three hundred families.
What made Chen Jingyan even more reluctant to give up was that those 300 soldiers had been following him since he started fighting at the border.
Like him, many of those soldiers have already started families and are husbands and fathers.
When Dabalagan heard what Chen Jingyan said, he immediately became angry.
"What do you mean? You're not going to help me. Don't forget that I still have someone in your hands."
"Dabalagan, if you release my people safely now, I will certainly help you take the throne of the king. However, if you insist on using them to threaten me, then we can try. I might even turn directly to King Aser."
After saying this, Chen Jingyan was about to go out.
But he was stopped by Dabalagan's guards. Chen Jingyan didn't give him a good look and beat him with his fists and feet.
Dabalagan is a prince with his own mansion and fiefdom. He is now in the capital because King Aser's health is getting worse, and all the princes in the fiefdom have returned. In addition to Dabalagan, there is also a prince named Muren who was brought by Aser's queen.
He came back this time too.
Aser's queen is a Han Chinese, and her son, Aser's eldest prince Muren, is also a Han Chinese.
But Aser was very fond of this Han queen, and naturally he valued Muren, the son brought by the queen, very much.
Muren is Dabalagan's biggest rival.
But Muren had no power in Mongolia because he was of Han descent and not a Mongolian at all.
Many warriors of the Mongolian State did not obey his management, so Muren's fief was in Xiangyang City, which bordered Zhaohe.
The city of Xiangyang originally belonged to the Showa Empire, but was taken away when the previous emperor was still alive.
It is extremely difficult to take it back now.
Chen Jingyan had never met the Han prince of the Mongolian Kingdom, but he knew that he had his own army in Xiangyang.
As for their strength, there should be clues.
Sure enough, when Chen Jinggang returned to his residence, the secret guard Wuying came in that night.
"Muren has returned to the Meng Kingdom Palace."
"However, I have discovered something strange. Among the Mongolian people who came with the princess's delegation, several of them have been staring at Princess Huayang. Those people are indeed Muren's men."
"Do you need me to investigate in this direction?"
After Wuying asked this question, Chen Jingyan glared at him.
"You are talking nonsense. What could be more important than the princess right now?"
"You stay here for me tonight as usual. I'm going out to do something."
Wuying's facial features wrinkled, but he still obeyed the Marquis's order.
Ever since the Marquis learned the art of disguise, he seemed to be addicted to it.
He, the guard, was always kept in this cage, while the Marquis would transform into his appearance, put on his clothes and go out.
This time, I'm afraid the Marquis wants to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess.
When Wuying thought about the Marquis going to see the princess with his face, he felt...exciting!
Chen Jingyan did want to meet Yun Qiao, but he also wanted to investigate Mu Ren.
He always felt that Mu Ren was a hidden talent, and there must be something he had overlooked.

After strolling around all day, Yun Qiao knew very well that the two female guards beside her had reported what she had done to the emperor.
But in the evening, when Prince Mingyu came back, Yun Qiao still analyzed with him very seriously the news about whether Chen Jingyan was in the Mongolian royal family.
"You mean to say that someone spread false news that the Marquis is not in the Mongolian royal family, let alone becoming a general of the Mongolian Kingdom?"
After listening to Prince Mingyu's analysis, Yun Qiao was also confused about what Chen Jingyan was trying to do.
Prince Mingyu continued, "I didn't see the King of Meng when I entered the palace today, but I did see their queen. She's over sixty, but she still looks young."
Yun Qiao was unhappy. Was this Prince Mingyu going to the palace to do some business, or to visit the Queen of Meng?
"Let's not talk about whether she's the queen or not. The prince came to the palace this time to look for the Marquis, but now he hasn't found anything and is staring at the queen instead."
When Prince Mingyu heard Yun Qiao's words, he immediately understood that she had misunderstood.
He quickly said, "Princess, you misunderstood me. I just felt that the queen looked very similar to you today. I just thought it was a little strange, so I looked at her a few more times."
“There are so many similar people in this world.”
Perhaps it was because all these beautiful girls looked alike, so Yun Qiao didn't take it to heart.
I continued to ask Prince Mingyu, besides the queen, who else did he come into contact with in the palace?
"There was only the Queen of Mongolia. As for the others, they did not show up. However, there were two princesses of Mongolia who showed up briefly and then left."
"As for the Marquis, they said they had only heard about him and had never met him..."
"I guess the Marquis is not with the Mongolian royal family, but outside. The reason he hasn't shown up must be that he encountered something."
Prince Mingyu's guess was also unreasonable.
"So, for now, all we can do is wait for the Marquis to pass on the news to us?"
"I tried to get some information from the Mongolian royal family, but I couldn't find anything."
Yun Qiao said this.
Prince Mingyu seemed to have thought of something and immediately said to Yun Qiao, "I heard someone in front of the queen say that the eldest prince has returned. After I left the Mongolian palace, I paid the palace attendants to ask."
"This eldest prince is the Queen's biological son, but not King Aser's. They say this eldest prince is from our Zhou country."
"What does the prince mean by this?" Yun Qiao asked.
"I want to meet this great prince. Princess, if you are free, would you please come with me?"
Yun Qiao didn't agree immediately.
Then he said, "Let's first find out what the eldest prince's personality is like. If necessary, I will go with the prince."
Prince Mingyu: "I plan to get to know more people and see who is reliable. Then we can spend some money to find out what the Marquis means. Although my method is a bit slow, there is no better way at the moment."
Yun Qiao nodded, "I will follow the prince's advice."
"It's getting late, and the prince has been busy all day, so go to bed early."
Prince Mingyu stood up and saw Yunqiao off.
Looking at her leaving figure, Prince Mingyu always felt that the Queen of Meng Kingdom and Yun Qiao looked too similar in appearance.
