994. Chapter 994 Will

Xiliang, Pingjing.

Tuoba Xuanyuan has been in Pingjing as a peace envoy for almost a month. Not only has he been unable to persuade Ye Yiqing to withdraw his troops, he even avoids Jin Lou and refuses to talk to him about withdrawing his troops. Sometimes he even lets him wait. , Jin Lou would also find excuses to push him away. All in all, during this month in Pingjing, Tuoba Xuanyuan was frustrated and had no sense of accomplishment at all.

He also knew what Jin Kingdom was thinking. Before he set out for Pingjing, the king had warned him that he could only compromise and allow Jin Kingdom and Xiliang to re-alliance. As for the alliance between Donglai and Pingjing cities, It doesn't matter if he won't return it to Xiliang. He was unwilling to lose two cities in Xiliang, so he wanted to ask Ye Yiqing and the others to retreat and leave Xiliang. It seemed like he was wishful thinking.

Before Tuoba Xuanyuan could persuade Ye Yiqing and the others, news came from Xiliang that Wan Ziliang led an army of 200,000 to seize five cities in Xiliang. Now Tuoba Xuanyuan could not sit still at all. He hurriedly said goodbye to Ye Yiqing and returned to the capital.

"Finally gone." Jin Lou came behind Ye Yiqing with a smile and watched the envoys from the royal capital walking further and further along the official road.

Ye Yiqing nodded with a half-smile, "It's time for me to leave Xiliang."

Jin Lou looked sideways at Ye Yiqing, "Master Ye, what did you say?"

"I am here for my daughter. Now that my daughter is with the emperor of your country, I can retire with success." Ye Yiqing said calmly.

"Master Ye, this time we were able to capture Donglai and Heijing so quickly because of your tactics. However, some things are beyond my control. The soldiers in Donglai and Hejing now... I need to have Only the Emperor's will can be returned." Jin Lou said in a low voice.

Whether Donglai and Heijing belong to the Jin Kingdom or the Dongqing Kingdom is not up to him now. The emperor probably wants to use this to negotiate terms with the Dongqing Kingdom. No matter what, he will not give in easily.

"I understand." Ye Yiqing said with a smile, "Some things need to be discussed slowly."

"It's best if Lord Ye understands it." Jin Lou breathed a sigh of relief and said. In fact, he initially thought that Ye Yiqing agreed to let them take the road to Qingzhou because he wanted to take the opportunity to enter the palace in Xiliang. However, he changed his mind recently. Ye Yiqing's all-out help was not for any benefit at all. He did it for the Queen.

Ye Yiqing said quietly, "I will go to Jin country personally in the future."

Maybe by the time he goes to Jin Kingdom, he will already be a grandfather.

Thinking of this, Ye Yiqing finally felt a lot better. When he heard that Yaoyao was kidnapped by Qi Ruoshui, he felt the grief of losing his daughter a few years ago again. Last time he failed to save Ye Zhen, this time He has a chance, so he will do whatever it takes.

Fortunately, Yaoyao is fine.

After receiving a letter from Morong Zhan and learning that Yaoyao had been taken to Xiazhou by him, he could feel relieved and believed that Murong Zhan would protect her. If he could no longer protect Ye Zhen, Ye Yiqing would decide to Protect your daughter.

…

…

Wasteland, military camp.

The coach of the wasteland is Ye Chunnan, but in addition to him, there are also Tang Zhen, Sima Jian and others here. Wan Ziliang has already withdrawn his troops. Cheng Zimao, who came to join them before, has returned to the border of Western Xinjiang. The others He is still waiting for Mo Rongzhan's will.

Ye Chunnan sent away Cui Yang, the general of Dongqing Kingdom who came to help, and then returned to the camp to discuss with others what to do next.

"General Ye, this is the secret letter that was just delivered. It contains the emperor's handwriting." Tang Zhen handed the letter to Ye Chunnan.

"A secret letter from the emperor?" Ye Chunnan raised his eyebrows slightly and opened the letter in front of everyone. It was indeed a handwritten letter, asking Ye Chunnan to give instructions on his behalf.

Sima Jian, who originally guarded the border town, stayed in the wasteland. Today's wasteland is no better than before. They occupied the half that originally belonged to Xiliang. In order to prevent future invasions, they had to re-establish the checkpoint wall. The original defense in the wasteland city was bribed. Therefore, Murong Zhan had no choice but to leave the trustworthy Sima Jian to guard the city. He would not send additional guards until the construction of the city wall was completed.

As for Tang Zhen, he and General Meng first led troops back to Kyoto to assist the young prince in supervising the country. Now that the war has gradually subsided, the stability of Kyoto is more important. Murong Zhan believes that Tang Zhen can watch over the peace of Kyoto for him.

"General Ye, what about you?" Tang Zhen asked.

Ye Chunnan continued to read, "Ye Chunnan will take five thousand elite Qingqi troops to set off for Xiazhou today..."

"Why did the emperor still lead General Ye to Xiazhou? Could it be that the old guy from Hai Gang came back with troops again? Shouldn't the emperor return to Kyoto after finding the empress?" Cheng Zimao asked doubtfully.

Tang Zhen said, "The civil war in Beiming continues, and Hai Gang did not return to Anhe City so quickly. Not long ago, the news came back that Wang Qu led his troops and failed to break the city. It is estimated that the emperor did not return to Kyoto, but went to Xiazhou. "

"You said that, I remembered it." Sima Jian said, "The current defender of Anhe City is Chen Jun, right? Can he defend Anhe City?"

Ye Chunnan said, "Chen Jun was brought out by Hai Gang. He can lead troops and call for formation on weekdays, but when it comes to the battlefield, he is no match at all."

"So..." Sima Jian turned to look at Tang Zhen.

Tang Zhen said in a deep voice, "The general in Anhe City has another expert. That's why the emperor went to Xiazhou and asked General Ye to lead his troops there."

"Wan Ziliang robbed the five cities of Xiliang. We must rob Anhe City no matter what." Ye Chunnan said with a smile.

"Then let's set off separately today." Tang Zhen said with a smile. Although he was a little disappointed that he couldn't go to see the Queen, he wanted to see if she was safe and sound. However, it was okay. If he didn't go to see her, he would Think less.

Sima Jian patted Tang Zhen on the shoulder and said, "I don't know when we will see you next time. I have to drink a few more drinks tonight."

"You won't come back until you're drunk!" General Meng laughed.

Ye Chunnan said, "Today is worth a drink."

"I'm afraid the chance to see you again won't wait long. Do you think the emperor will watch Wan Ziliang snatch Xiliang's territory?" Sima Jian said in a low voice, "Don't forget, the emperor has long regarded Xiliang as our Jinguo There was meat in his mouth, Wan Ziliang just took a big mouthful away, don’t you need to take it back?”

Ye Chunnan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Steal! No one can steal our things!"

Tang Zhen nodded. With the emperor's far-sighted vision, he might soon be able to take back the territory taken away by Wan Ziliang.

"Go have a few drinks! I don't know when the next time I want to drink so much."
