In the north, there are endless grasslands.

The wind was blowing the lush green grass on the grassland, and from time to time a few herdsmen passed by driving their cattle and sheep.

Unlike the Central Plains where the four seasons are distinct, the northern Xinjiang has long winters and short summers.

It is now the end of summer and the beginning of autumn in the Central Plains, but in northern Xinjiang, it is already starting to feel cold.

The grassland is turning from green to yellow day by day.

Finally, in winter, everything will be deserted.

This is not a good sign.

The withering of the grass represents the reduction of cattle and sheep production, which will undoubtedly have an impact on the foundation of the Wanyan Jin Kingdom in northern Xinjiang.

Even the Wanyan Jin Kingdom, which has now unified the grasslands and is as powerful as the sun, is helpless against this long winter.

In the past, when the various kingdoms were at war, these seasons would have been the time when the various tribes in northern Xinjiang would go south to plunder.

But now...

Northern Xinjiang has just experienced the threat of epidemic disease.

Immediately afterwards, there was another high-level turmoil, like a major blood change.

Although it is said that under the control and guidance of the eldest princess Wanyan Lingxu, this series of major events did not cause too much damage to the soldiers and civilians of Northern Xinjiang.

However, it is, after all, a reorganization and alternation of power.

In a short period of time, I am afraid that northern Xinjiang will not be able to move south.

…

Inside the temporary marching tent.

Yan Wulu expressed his gratitude to Zhao Linglong for her help during the "Battle of Beiting".

Zhao Linglong waved her hands very casually and said——

"This is the agreement Linglong promised to the two ladies, and it is as it should be."

Zhao Linglong also revealed that over the years, she has been looking for opportunities, hoping to contact the Wanyan royal family of the Jin Kingdom, or people from the three major vassals.

She said that she had a blood feud with a certain superior clan member of the Daqian royal family, and she wanted revenge, hoping to use the power of the powerful Northern Xinjiang or the vassal king.

But unfortunately, until today, she does not even know the specific target of revenge.

All I know is that this royal family member is very influential both in the world of martial arts and in the dark world. People in the martial arts world call him "Emperor".

Upon hearing this, Yan Wulu said that as long as Zhao Linglong is willing to cooperate with him, he can develop a way to relieve the inflammation and poison.

On behalf of the Northland, he will definitely help her take revenge and find out the truth.

When Zhao Linglong heard this, she immediately expressed her gratitude and was willing to cooperate fully.

…

After Zhao Linglong left the camp, only Yan Wulu and several personal guards were left in the camp.

A secret guard from Zhenbei presented information about the Western Region to Yan Wulu.

That was the report from the secret guard of Deputy Chief of Secret Service Zhang Chunhua——

Under Zhang Chunhua's powerful strategy, the "Shadow Sect" established by him has destroyed the main fortress of the Yi family and controlled almost all of the Rong Kingdom in the Western Regions.

The remaining forces of the Yi family were divided by him, and they adopted a dual strategy of winning over some and suppressing others.

At the same time, Yi Qiuyue's status as "the eldest daughter of the Yi family" has caused many Yi family forces to join the Yingshamen. The remaining few die-hards occupy the last Yi family strongholds, but they are no longer fearful.

.

In the Western Region, the three-legged situation has disappeared.

What is presented now is that the Western Region is equally divided between the two major forces of the Shadow Sect and the Demon Sect.

Close the secret message.

Yan Wulu secretly thought that it would take no more than two months for him to go to northern Xinjiang to claim the land in the Hetao, but the Western Region had already undergone such earth-shaking changes.

In this way, it seems that Zhang Chunhua's original promise to completely control the Western Regions within a year was not nonsense.

Thinking of this, Yan Wulu couldn't help but smile knowingly.

He gently picked up the secret message on the eucalyptus and murmured——

"Chunhua is really powerful. Maybe even I need to learn more about the methods she used in the Western Regions."

The Yi family in the Western Regions is now insignificant.

The Demonic Cult of the Western Regions and we are allies again.

However, allies can only last long if they share common interests.

The Demonic Cult of the Western Regions is elusive in its thoughts, and its behavior is even more difficult to control... Perhaps, a more suitable alternative force should be found in advance?

Yan Wulu thought secretly, but had not yet made a decision.

After all, the Wulin Alliance is very close to the Daqian imperial court. If the Demon Sect can contain the power and attention of the Wulin Alliance for the North, it would still be worth staying.

On the other side, sent together with the secret guard's report, was a personal letter from Zhang Chunhua.

Yan Wulu took it and opened the envelope.

Most of them are answers to previous correspondence exchanges with Yan Wulu.

There is also an apology for concealing her pregnancy.

Yan Wulu thought to himself that Zhang Chunhua might think of himself as too narrow-minded.

I have never punished her in the past. Now that she is pregnant, even if she concealed it at the beginning, how can I punish her again?

but……

Yan Wulu then thought about it, Zhang Chunhua was obviously one of the people who knew him best.

Even though she knew she wouldn't blame her, she still said this.

Come to think of it, this is both her duty and her method...

Just as Yan Wulu was thinking about it, Princess Taiping Zhao Lingxin suddenly opened the curtain and entered the tent.

Ignoring the gazes of many soldiers, the latter came directly behind Yan Wulu, put his hands on his shoulders, and seemed to stick to him together.

"Is it a letter from Sister Chunhua? Have you read it to me, the princess?"

"Princess, how did you... know about this letter?"

The secret messages of the Zhenbei secret guards are always kept confidential.

Logically speaking, even Secret Agent Lingzhi would not know the secret letter sent by Deputy Chief of Secret Agent Zhang Chunhua to Yan Wulu.

Zhao Lingxin should be even less likely to know about this matter.

"I guessed."

Zhao Lingxin said casually.

After that, she stretched her head from behind Yan Wulu and directly saw the personal letter Zhang Chunhua wrote to Yan Wulu.

Yan Wulu felt that letters, although different from the confidentiality of previous official documents, were also related to personal privacy.

If it was just one's privacy, it would be fine to show it to Zhao Lingxin.

But this is also related to Zhang Chunhua after all.

To a third person, even Zhao Lingxin, who has a good relationship with Zhang Chunhua, is not very good.

Thinking of this, Yan Wulu made a slight movement with his right hand and closed the letter.

Zhao Lingxin suddenly puffed up her mouth slightly, looking a bit like a beautiful goldfish puffing up its air.

"What are you doing?!"

"This is Chunhua's personal letter. You shouldn't read it."

"Okay, okay."

When Zhao Lingxin heard this, she waved her hand. As the princess of Daqian, she also knew these basic etiquette.

However, she turned her lips slightly and said -

"Speaking of which, I didn't expect that Prince Consort Wu Lu, you would communicate so politely with Sister Chunhua in private? It's a bit... too polite and indifferent. It's not like a beloved lover, but more like a confidant and a guest."

"...I originally thought that for a 'sex devil' like you, the personal letters to Sister Chunhua would be filled with words that were offensive and unsuitable for children."

Well……

Yan Wulu was speechless.

On the one hand, he was helpless. He felt that the reason why Zhao Lingxin thought so was because the other party had never seen Zhang Chunhua act recklessly on the bed...

On the other hand, he was thinking about when did he become synonymous with "sex devil" here in Zhao Lingxin?

Zhao Lingxin seemed to have noticed Yan Wulu's thoughts at the moment.
