"What does your chief helmsman mean by letting me lead less than 10,000 exhausted troops, surrounded by tigers and wolves from various tribes in northern Xinjiang, to attack Yanyunguan Pass that no one has been able to break through from the north since its establishment?
"Xiao Chen finally couldn't help but speak.
"The intention of our chief helmsman is to unite all forces that can be united. We all should abandon their sectarian opinions and work together to destroy the Zhou Dynasty and restore the Han Dynasty at all costs!" Qian Yunfei said.
"Then what?" Xiao Chen said coldly, "Killing each other again to fight for the throne?"
"Prince, if you say this, I will be speechless!" Qian Yunfei sighed and spread his hands.
"You are not speechless, but you want to say that I, Xiao Chen, made a blood oath to your chief helmsman not to compete with him for the throne, but now I have gone back on my promise and violated my oath, right?" Xiao Chen said.
The implication behind his words.
Qian Yunfei said in his heart, it’s good if you know!
Without saying a word, Xiao Chen acquiesced.
"Then you are wrong again. I, Xiao Chen, will never compete with my second brother for the position of Emperor of the Han Dynasty. I said this before, and I will do the same in the future. I, Xiao Chen, always mean what I say, and I will not be like some people.
Playing tricks, playing tricks, and treating all the heroes in the world as fools!" Xiao Chen said coquettishly.
"Then why did the prince do all this in Yanyun County?" Qian Yunfei asked.
"At a small level, it is a last resort to survive; at a big level, it is for the people of Yanyun County to live and work in peace and contentment, and to prevent the northern tribes from going south to invade, so that everyone can live in harmony and maintain peace forever.
Just do it." Xiao Chen said.
"So the prince wants to live in a corner and become the king of Yanyun County?" Qian Yunfei didn't seem too surprised when he heard this.
"I can't compare to my second brother's lofty ambitions, and I know that I can't be the master of the world no matter what. I just want to establish myself in Yanyun County and make a fortune quietly. In the future, whether Li Wanjiang becomes the emperor or my second brother takes over, as long as I can
Give me such a small place to stay, and I'll be satisfied." Xiao Chen suddenly became sincere.
His previous ideal was to be a rich man with many wives and concubines, but now he wants to be a happy prince with many princesses. The level is already different, okay?
"After all, Prince Edward, you still don't want to send troops to fight with us." Qian Yunfei sighed.
"I don't want to, but I really can't. In fact, you know the situation in Yanyun County better than me. It would be difficult for me to survive, let alone start an army." Xiao Chen also sighed.
"But in fact, the prince has already taken root in Yanyun County, hasn't he? And I heard that the people in Yanyun County now regard you as a god," Qian Yunfei said.
"Haha, Yunfei, don't say such things, right? It's really meaningless. There's no need to take root. Now I'm not on a stable footing. I'm on the verge of collapse. The tribes in northern Xinjiang want me, Governor Peter of Rus.
You want my money, Emperor Li Wanjiang of the Great Zhou Dynasty wants my life, and your Tianxuan Society..."
And you, Tianxuanhui, want my people, my money, and my life!
"Our chief helmsman also knows a little bit about the current difficulties that the prince is in, and it is indeed not easy." Qian Yunfei frowned, seeming to be worried about Xiao Chen's situation, but he changed the subject, "But
The situation of our Tianxuanhui is even more difficult than that of you, the Crown Prince!"
Xiao Chenxin said, "Come on, come on." After going around in circles for a long time, he started to get to the point.
The person who wants me is wishful thinking, and he who wants my life will not give it away!
All you can do is ask for my money.
"Brother Yunfei, Ling'er is innocent and simple, and she is like a brother and sister to me. You are right, she is my lifeblood." Xiao Chen said suddenly.
"Prince, what you said..." Qian Yunfei felt that he still couldn't keep up with Xiao Chen's rhythm.
"A gentleman can be bullied to his advantage, a strong man can be bullied to his righteousness, a hero can be bullied to his feelings, but I, Xiao Chen, am not a gentleman, a strong man, or a hero. I know who wants my life, and I will take his."
Life!"
"You can tell me directly what you want, but remember to go back and tell my second brother and all the people in your Tianxuan Society that you must never threaten me with Ling'er again."
Wan, don't involve her in these bad things between us again."
Otherwise, I don’t know what I will do; therefore, don’t say that I, Xiao Chen, did not predict what I said!
You don’t have to worry about the batch of grain shipped from Myanmar. It’s not that it won’t be given to you, but it can’t be given to you because countless pairs of eyes are staring at that batch of grain!
As for the money, you don’t have to think about it. My millions of taels of silver, except for buying food, were all used to help the people of Yanyun County, but it was a drop in the bucket. Do you know how many people are still suffering from cold and hunger?
There is not even a house for the winter!
I will go back to Governor Peter and ask him to send two Russian cargo ships to transport you a batch of grain and horses. These are all taken from the mouths of the people of Yanyun County.
Don't be in a hurry to thank me. This is not from me, but from Ling'er. You must accept this batch of supplies in Ling'er's name. It can be regarded as her contribution to your Tianxuan Hui.
One effort.
If it weren't for Ling'er's sake, I wouldn't give you a grain or a horse hair!
Remember, from now on, Ling'er will have nothing to do with your Tianxuan Society!
If you dare to come to her behind my back like today again, then don't blame me for turning against you!
Yunfei, I am not targeting you. I know that you, like Wanchun and Liu Yunhai, are both passionate and good men, but I feel that the blood that Wanchun and Yunhai shed for the Tianxuan Society is not worth it!
So don't let my Ling'er bleed, and don't let her cry.
Her Duan family is full of loyal people, and she is the only one left alone as a little girl... How can you bear it?
From now on, I will take care of her, protect her, and love her for the rest of my life. I will not allow anyone to take advantage of her, bully her, or hurt her.
Please tell your second brother to let him rest assured.
You must have given up too.
Qian Yunfei was really speechless after Xiao Chen's words.
Maybe this can explain why people like Fu Yan would quit the Tianxuan Society and follow him instead, right?
"Prince, is it okay if I want to meet Wan Chun? Don't worry, I swear I have no other intentions. I just want to have a drink with him." Qian Yunfei said.
"Wan Chun is in Wenyang County now. He is very busy, but he doesn't have time to come over. If you want to see him, just go. Wenyang County is not far from here. If you hurry up, you can come back day and night." Xiao Chen said.
"Oh... forget it then, please give me my regards, Prince Edward." Qian Yunfei was very disappointed.
"Yunfei, I just want to tell you something, and there is no need to tell it to my second brother. If your Tianxuan Society tries to do something now, it will definitely fail!" Xiao Chen suddenly said.
"Oh? Why did you see it?" Qian Yunfei now looked at Xiao Chen with admiration.
