Chapter 460 Entering Xining
Chapter 460 Entering Xining
"Thank you for your kindness. Please hand the princess over to us and we will escort her," said the guard.
He had never personally witnessed the inhuman torture that the princess suffered, but of course he had heard about it.
For this reason, although they felt deeply sympathetic towards the princess's experience, since things had already happened, the princess could only wish for the best.
Singh in the carriage was determined, she knew that Jiang Yue would definitely not agree.
If Jiang Yue agreed, she would not go home either.
After the last robbery, she didn't want to go home.
Later Jiang Yue left and she had no one to rely on.
As a princess, she had nowhere to go. Where else could she go if not home?
What Jiang Yue had said at the beginning was that she should live a peaceful life.
At first, people in Donglin had no good impression of her, and when she fell into the hands of Beiyan... Unexpectedly, she still couldn't escape her fate in the end.
Thinking about it, she felt that every cloud of misfortune may turn out to be a blessing in disguise.
In this way, she wouldn't have to marry.
Turning to look at Jiang Yue, she was puzzled.
Chen Lian came along and gained some new insights.
If she hadn't met Jiang Yue, she would never have encountered such a thing in her life.
After hearing this, Xia Yuanchen thought to himself: After such a big favor, you want to send them away with just a simple thank you?
Jiang Yue said:
"At present, our Donglin and Xining countries are on good terms, and the incident in Xining happened in our Donglin. This time, sending the princess back to the city will show our sincerity."
Now that we've come this far, there's no reason to retreat.
The defending general was terrified. What should he do if Donglin tried to break into the city?
"Who knows if the person in the carriage is Princess Xining?"
The carriage curtain was opened, and Princess Singh appeared.
Even though she was wearing a coarse linen dress, it couldn't hide the princess temperament she had cultivated since childhood.
Jiang Yue showed the princess token and said in a calm voice,
"Let go."
Singh looked at her token through the car door and wondered if Jiang Yue was going to return it to her?
Chen Lian also looked at Jiang Yue. It turned out that she was the one who took it.
"This..." The guard actually saw Princess Singh, but did not know her.
He only recognized the royal token.
Thinking of General Sun's warning, he said:
"Don't bother. Let us, the soldiers, personally escort the princess back."
General Sun, the guard on the Xining city wall yesterday, was of a much higher rank than him.
"Let him go!" Jiang Yue said again, leaving the guard at a loss as to how to refuse. In fact, he couldn't refuse.
Even Princess Singh in the carriage could not refuse Donglin's invitation to sleep with her.
For a moment, she felt like she was being put under house arrest by Jiang Yue.
The border guard still didn't want to let them go, but he didn't dare to offend the princess.
He had no choice but to order his soldiers around him,
"Let them go."
…Jiang Yue and Xia Yuanchen led the generals into the Xining border.
On the way, Singh glanced at Jiang Yue, who was following closely behind the horse outside the car, and a haggard voice sounded inside the car,
"You are getting more and more adept at using my token."
Jiang Yue handed the token to Singh and said, "I'll give it back to you."
"For you." Singh said casually but seriously.
"I wonder if I can repay you for saving me?"
As she said this, her heart ached.
Her token is made of pure gold. Ordinary people can take it and melt it down directly, and they will never have to worry about food and drink.
Although others did not say anything, Chen Lian was amazed at Singh's magnanimity.
Jiang Yue remained silent because she didn't know how to respond.
In front of the car, all the Xuanwu soldiers were thinking after hearing this that Princess Singh was still too young to say such naive words.
"That's not enough." At the other end of the carriage, Xia Yuanchen said without much scruples:
"What we want is Qingzhou City!"
"One princess for one city, that should be no problem."
Their plan was to impersonate the Princess of Xining, exchange for the city, and then go directly to the Imperial City of Xining to control all the actions of the King of Xining.
At that time, when they go east to attack Northern Yan, they will no longer have to worry about Xining.
These words made Singh's lips tremble uncontrollably, and he glanced at Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue didn't look at him, but quickened her pace.
She never showed any mercy when it came to wars between countries.
Now, she didn't want to look Singh in the eye.
Just because of this princess, she didn't want to hurt her, but she couldn't avoid it.
After all, they are foreign countries, and the relationship between the two countries is so fragile that it can be easily destroyed because of the failure of the marriage.
It should be said that King Xining wanted to protect himself, but sometimes he could not control his inner desire to enrich his country.
The army remained as it passed by yesterday's city. Jiang Yue raised her eyes and looked specifically at the large characters on the city wall: the name was Qingzhou.
"Princess, Your Highness!" At this time, General Sun, who was on the city wall yesterday, came on horseback and blocked the princess's carriage.
Then, he knelt on one knee towards the carriage and said:
"Your Highness, I offended you yesterday. I hope you will be magnanimous."
"Offend? When have you ever offended this princess?" Inside the carriage, a hoarse voice was voiced that was hurt from crying too much, making people feel that the princess was very weak.
However, her voice carried the pride of a princess.
By her side, Chen Lian finally discovered the strong side of the weak princess.
General Sun thought that the feud between him and the princess was complete.
He clasped his fists and continued:
"Princess, this time when you return to your country, I will personally see you off."
Xia Yuanchen was just waiting for Jiang Yue to continue.
"We soldiers have orders to obey and must not disobey!" Jiang Yue insisted.
General Sun's face turned pale and he stood up.
"You have so many soldiers from Donglin coming here, obviously you are coveting our Xining land!"
"That's right." Jiang Yue did not deny this.
"Tell your Majesty that Qingzhou City will belong to Donglin from now on!"
"Why?" General Sun was anxious. If Qingzhou City was lost, their border line would have to move backwards.
Regardless of the actual situation, Xining and Donglin, at least on the surface, are friendly countries, and it was his negligence.
For this reason, he was extremely alert, and when he looked at the princess again, he had the urge to kill her more than once.
He thought that Donglin was simply here to escort the princess.
This stupid princess was being used without realizing it, causing him to suffer as a result.
"Just because..." Jiang Yue glanced at Princess Singh while speaking, then changed her tone and continued:
"The Qingyun Province was able to be preserved thanks to the help of Donglin! If you don't agree, you will lose more than just this city!"
Inside the carriage, Singh felt that his heart was numb with pain.
Did she save her just for the city?
Chen Lian felt Singh's sadness at the moment and couldn't help but hold her arm, silently comforting her.
She felt that she had really become Singh's maid.
General Sun's face turned blue, then pale.
"You... you..."
Xia Yuanchen took another step closer to General Sun.
"What about us? Don't forget, it was you Xining who first thought of dividing our Donglin land. The reason why we didn't kill you now is entirely because of your princess."
