The news that His Majesty was sending troops home soon spread in the capital.
The people who heard the news all cheered and cheered. They could be reunited with their families without having to fight.
In the palace.
Yuan Chen was waiting for Xiao Chongjun in the imperial study, and Xiao Jialan was also there.
Not long after, Xiao Chongjun led Chu Heng in and said, "I've brought you here, just tell me if you have anything."
Chu Heng thought it was His Majesty who wanted to talk to him about something, but he didn't expect it was Yuan Chen.
He asked curiously: "Are you looking for me?"
Yuan Chen motioned for him to sit down, and then said: "There is something that needs your help, it is related to Nanyue's future."
Chu Heng looked like he was listening attentively.
Yuan Chen said: "Previously, Southern Xinjiang sent a letter of credence and wanted to send envoys to celebrate my wedding to Jialan. You also know that although Nan Xinjiang is a small country, it is good at voodoo arts.
It would not be easy to get them to surrender. Now that Nanyue and Beichen have reconciled, they are afraid that there will be alienation in Southern Xinjiang that will be detrimental to Nanyue.
So the best way is to keep southern Xinjiang in our hands."
After hearing this, Chu Heng frowned and said, "It's easy to say, but how do you master it?"
Yuan Chen curled his lips and said: "Actually, it's very simple, that is to conquer the enemy without fighting. As the saying goes, capture the thief first and capture the king first. As long as we capture the king of Southern Xinjiang, Southern Xinjiang will naturally be in Nanyue's palm."
The more Chu Heng listened, the more outrageous he felt. He said: "We have captured the King of Southern Xinjiang, are you kidding me?"
If it were so easy, they would have done it long ago and why would they wait until now?
Xiao Jialan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Just because you can't do it, it doesn't mean that my husband can't do it."
Chu Heng choked and said to Yuan Chen, "Stop showing off."
Yuan Chen smiled slightly and said: "I want you to sneak into Southern Xinjiang to find someone. As long as you can save her, Nanyue will belong to Nanjiang from now on."
Chu Heng's eyes flashed and he asked: "Who to save?"
Yuan Chen said: "Miss Duan of the Southern Xinjiang General Mansion, Duan Qingli, will be the future Crown Princess of Southern Xinjiang.
She eloped with her loved one and her whereabouts were unknown. The Duan family kept it secret temporarily because Duan Qingli was ill. Now the Duan family is sparing no effort to find Miss Duan's whereabouts. If you can find her and save her from danger, you will be able to save her.
Went to southern Xinjiang."
Chu Heng was a little confused: "I don't understand. She is just a concubine who eloped with others. Is she really that important?"
Yuan Chen nodded: "Yes, she is the destined person selected by the high priest. The Crown Prince of Southern Xinjiang is weak in body. Only by marrying Duan Qingli can the Southern Xinjiang community be preserved forever, but Duan Qingli does not want her
Destiny is controlled by others.
She ignored the honor and disgrace of her family and eloped with the person she loved, which shows that she doesn't have much affection for her family members.
Once the Duan family finds her, they will definitely execute her sweetheart and send her to the Crown Prince.
If it were you and your loved one was harmed by your own family, what would you do?"
Chu Heng narrowed his eyes. It was really difficult to choose between his family on one side and his sweetheart on the other, but Miss Duan had already made her choice.
He said: "I understand. She had already made her choice when she abandoned her family and ran away from marriage."
Yuan Chen said: "The Duan family will not let her go, but no matter how capable a woman is, she cannot escape the Duan family's search.
Once she is found, it will be the beginning of disaster for her, and she will definitely overthrow the Duan family, and even the entire southern Xinjiang."
