"Why do you want me to guard the gate?" Jin Shanshan immediately came to question Ye Chunnan when he learned that he was transferred from the barracks and returned to the city gate to guard the gate.
Ye Chunnan glanced at Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen said, "General Ye, I'm going to patrol the camp first."
"I'll go too." Ge Kuan also left.
Ye Chunnan and Jin Shanshan were born in the tent, he looked at her, "Shanshan, there is a reason why you were asked to guard the pass."
"I know, you think that Chu Li is in Xiliang, so I will be arrogant?" Jin Shanshan said with a sneer, she hated Chu Li for betraying the Jin family army, but she would not do anything wrong because of it.
Ye Chunnan shook his head, "It's not for this reason, I know you won't be impulsive, and it doesn't matter if Chu Li is in the Xiliang barracks, if it's because of Chu Li, I won't let you go to the battlefield."
"Then why?" Jin Shanshan asked angrily.
"Yaoyao was taken away by the Xiliang Witch King." Ye Chunnan lowered his voice, "Shanshan, only you have seen Yaoyao. I need you to help me guard the pass and rescue Yaoyao for me."
Jin Shanshan's eyes widened, "What? Queen, don't... how is it possible! How could the Xiliang Witch King take her away? Isn't she in the capital? You mean the Xiliang Witch King went to the capital?"
Ye Chunnan nodded heavily, "Yes, the Xiliang Witch King is not from Xiliang, but Qi Jin's daughter, so that's all I can know, how Yaoyao was taken away, is she with the Witch King, I can't be sure."
"Wait, what do you mean? Wasn't she taken away by the Witch King? Why can't she be sure if she is with the Witch King?" Jin Shanshan asked.
"It's not without reason that Lu Lingzhi left the Xiliang military camp. Maybe he just went to take Yaoyao away." Ye Chunnan said, clenching his hands into fists, "No matter what, you must strictly guard the gate and don't let any suspicious go through."
Jin Shanshan glanced at him, "I see."
She is very clear about Lu Yaoyao's position in Ye Chunnan's heart. Ye Chunnan loves this sister like a baby, and he stayed in Jinguo because of her. If Lu Yaoyao was taken to Xiliang, she felt that Ye Chunnan would be desperate Go to Xiliang to save her.
"This is the portrait of the Xiliang Witch King." Ye Chunnan handed the portrait to her, "Maybe they will change their faces."
"I will keep an eye on all suspicious people." Jin Shanshan said, "If the queen appears, I will recognize her."
Ye Chunnan took a deep look at her, "Okay, you have to be careful yourself."
Jin Shanshan's heart trembled when he saw him, she lowered her head slightly, "You are a good brother."
For Lu Yaoyao, he would have no hesitation.
"If it was you, I would be anxious and desperate to save you." Ye Chunnan said in a low voice.
Jin Shanshan was stunned, and stared at Ye Chunnan in a daze.
Ye Chunnan laughed, lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, "Take more people."
…
…
Dongqing Kingdom, above the court.
"Your Majesty, Jin Kingdom is being attacked by Beiming and Xiliang. As an allied country, how can we just sit idly by? We should join hands with Jin Kingdom to fight against the enemy." Cao Yu stood up and saluted Li Heng.
"Where do we still have troops to support Jin Kingdom? Last year's battle with Beiming Kingdom had already cost us a lot. If we send troops again, I'm afraid..." Another minister stood up and said.
Then someone added, "That's right, Your Majesty, we must not intervene in this battle. This is a grievance between Jin Guo and Xiliang. If they hadn't taken in and killed Wan Yanxi, how could there be today's war."
"Yes, what if we lose and Beiming Kingdom attacks Liusha City again?"
"..."
The ministers in the court quarreled with each other. Some people supported and supported Jin Guo, while others felt that this was asking for trouble.
The two factions were clearly distinguished. The officials who supported and supported Jin Guo were usually on good terms with Ye Yiqing, and those who opposed were those who were instigated by Li Yu to oppose Ye Yiqing. They opposed for the sake of opposition.
Ever since Li Yu lost face at Ye Yiqing's wedding last time, she hasn't come out of the princess mansion for a long time. She hates Ye Yiqing deeply in her heart, but she can't forget him, so she secretly recruits court officials to fight against him. I want Ye Yiqing to beg in front of her one day.
Li Heng felt his brain hurt from hearing this, and shouted, "Shut up!"
The hall immediately fell silent.
"Prime Minister Ye, what do you think?" Li Heng asked Ye Yiqing.
Ye Yiqing's daughter is the Queen of Jin, and his son is the general of Jin, and he is still fighting Xiliang in the wasteland. How could he not support Jin
"Your Majesty, I think it's fine to support, but it's okay if you don't want to." Ye Yiqing said flatly.
"Master Ye, what do you mean by that?"
Ye Yiqing smiled lightly, "As a country of allies, it's only natural for us to help. After all, when we fought with Beiming Kingdom last year, it was the Emperor Jin's own conquest that allowed us to keep Liusha City. It's reasonable for us to fight with Jin If the nations join hands, if you don’t want to fight, that’s fine, Jin Kingdom is defeated, we just need to prevent the Beiming Kingdom and Xiliang’s allied forces from attacking Dongqing Kingdom.”
"Master Ye, what do you mean... Do you think Beiming Kingdom will attack us?"
"Why did the Beiming Kingdom join forces with Xiliang? After thinking about it carefully, why don't they invade other countries to expand their territory? As long as Jin Kingdom is no longer their obstacle, why don't they attack us?" ?” Ye Yiqing asked calmly.
Ye Yiqing's words silenced everyone.
"Prime Minister Ye is right." Li Heng nodded lightly, "We should support Jin Kingdom, not for Jin Kingdom, but for our Dongqing Kingdom."
"The emperor..."
Li Heng looked at the official who still wanted to object, "If Jin Kingdom loses to Beiming Kingdom in the wasteland this time, Beiming Kingdom will definitely attack Liusha City, who of you can fight?"
Beiming Kingdom is much more powerful than Dongqing Kingdom, they dare not nod at all.
"Prime Minister Ye, who do you think you sent to the wasteland to support Jin Kingdom?" Li Heng ignored those people, don't think he didn't know what stupid thing his sister did at the minister's wedding, she was ashamed and still unwilling If he wanted to target Ye Yiqing in the court, if it was a trivial matter, he would bear it, but it was related to the country's major affairs, and these courtiers still couldn't figure out how to mess around with Li Yu!
"I think General Cui Yang is the most suitable candidate." Ye Yiqing said.
"Cui Yang? Isn't that a young man? What can he do?" Immediately, someone objected.
Ye Yiqing said, "General Cui is young, but he has never failed, and... he is still under Wan Ziliang's command, and he knows Wan Ziliang's fighting methods best."
Li Heng nodded, "Let Cui Yang lead the troops to the wasteland."
