Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 430
Chapter 430 Dark Battle
Armored soldiers lined up with halberd broadswords walked to the left and right. The aura was imposing and murderous, but Princess Wen Cheng stepped forward without looking sideways. Her face was always filled with a proud and confident smile, causing the Tibetan soldiers to be secretly shocked. They almost forgot the solemn etiquette of the army and looked sideways. Immediately after, all of them revealed astonishing expressions, believing that the heavens and humans would descend to the mortal realm.
After walking more than a hundred steps into the barracks, Li Xueyan calmed down. She regarded herself as a person who was about to go to the execution ground. She stretched her neck out with a single saber and withdrew it with a single saber. She was fearless to the left and right. In front of her, any Armored Soldier could kill her, and there were no more than 300,000 people. Therefore, she simply didn’t care about them, and only had one goal left in her mind-she had to get the antidote from Gaer Qinling and Qizong Nongzan!
Li Xueyan muttered in her heart before walking into Gaer Qinling’s special tent, thinking about how to deal with the opening line. However, when she stepped into the tent, she was a little surprised-she originally thought that the tent should be heavily guarded by civil and military forces. Who would have thought that there was actually only one person in a tent as big as a palace?
The man sat on a large chair that was several steps taller, his left elbow resting on his left knee, his left thumb and index finger forming an eight-character prop up his chin, his sitting posture was rather lazy, and his gaze looked at her playfully, as if he was smiling but not smiling.
Li Xueyan stood there, feeling very abrupt in the air. Looking around, he did not see another person. Only the man in the upper seat looked at her with disdain and frivolity. He neither spoke nor moved.
Princess Wencheng had no idea for a moment, and the several words and introductory remarks she had prepared for a long time were all useless. She had never expected that she would face such a silent opponent.
“This person must be Gaer Qinling! Who else could be so arrogant and aloof? From the looks of it, he’s already prepared to deal with me. He’s the only one in the tent right now. I’m sure that Zan Pu doesn’t know that I’m in the camp-bad! Since Gaer Qinling planned the poisoning, how could he possibly give me the antidote?”
Li Xueyan’s heart became a little confused for a moment, and she quickly planned how to deal with the situation in front of her.
“The emissary of the Great Tang from afar, Her Royal Highness Princess Wen Cheng, why did he not say a word and frown alone?” Gaer Qinling finally spoke, his slow and polite words mixed with Zarre’s arrogance and mockery, and said, “Don’t worry, the two armies are fighting. If you have something to say, you can say it.”
Li Xueyan was a little angry at his arrogance and disdain. Before coming here, she had already predicted that a young character like herself would definitely not be a match for the spicy Gaer Qinling. If he wanted to fight against his opponent, there would be no other outcome besides defeat.
Therefore, instead of fighting with one’s own eyes and arguing with one another, it would be better to cut through the mess with one slash!
“Who are you? How dare you speak to me like this?” Princess Wencheng calmed down and said loudly, “I am the envoy of the Great Tang Empire, the envoy of Guanxi Army. I only talk to you, Zan Pu.”
“I’m sorry, Zan Pu isn’t here. If you want to see him, you can go to some cities in Luo.” Gaer Qinling laughed more and more playfully, like a cat playing with a mouse it caught.
“Then I’ll take my leave.” After Princess Wen Cheng finished speaking, she turned around and left.
“Stop.” Gaer Qinling stood up and walked to Li Xueyan to stop her.
“What is it?” Li Xueyan looked up at the man in front of her, who was half a head taller than him and twice her size, and said.
“Why don’t you ask who I am?” Gaer Qinling cut his hands like he was playing with a child. He looked down at her and asked with a smile.
“Aren’t you Gaer Qinling? I’m not interested in you. Whether to ask or not, it’s all normal.” Princess Wen Cheng sneered and said.
“You … Why are you looking for us, Zan Pu? If it’s important, I can convey it on your behalf.” Gaer Qinling wasn’t angry either, instead, he asked with a smile on his face.
Li Xueyan swore that she had never seen a smile more worthy of the words “smiling face concealing the saber” than Gaer Qinling’s.
“This palace has brought you Zan Pu a gift. You must present it to him.” After saying that, Princess Wen Cheng took out the small brocade box that Hou Junji had given him.
“Then let me pass it on!” Before Gaer Qinling could finish his sentence, he quickly snatched the box from Li Xueyan’s hand.
Li Xueyan was not surprised at all, but she was calm as she pursed her lips and sneered.
As expected, Gaer Qinling opened the box in front of Li Xueyan.
Li Xueyan was looking forward to seeing his astonished and even horrified expression.
Predictably, Gaer Qinling was like a vain woman who saw a precious gem. Suddenly, she looked up and laughed loudly, “Good stuff! Zan Pu will definitely like it!”
“You!” Li Xueyan was a little caught off guard.
“En, whose ear is this?” Gaer Qinling closed the lid, still smiling.
“Do you have the face to ask me back?” Li Xueyan sneered disdainfully, “Apart from you Tibetans, who else has such a big bronze ring in their ears, like a bit in the nose and mouth of a sacrificed animal?”
“Heh, interesting!” Gaer Qinling burst into laughter. He put the box behind him with his hands cut off from his back and smiled. “Tell me whose ear is this, right?”
“Isn’t it just the ears of General Wei Ru, General Deg Danbawangjie, whom you sent to Tang Camp?” Li Xueyan said, “You’re just playing tricks on the mystery. You know what to ask.”
“Eh! Strange!” Gaer Qinling was surprised. “I was riding with General Weirudge early in the morning and shooting arrows. When did he have time to put his ears on your Tang camp?”
“Totally nonsense!” Li Xueyan was a little angry, “You despicable and shameless assassins and spies were sent to Tang Camp, plotting to poison our army commander Qin Mubai Young Marshal Qin. We captured a spotted person and got stolen goods, and you are still slyly arguing!”
“Detail? Poison? Seize all the spoils?” Gaer Qinling was shocked at first, then laughed heartily. He shook his head and did not argue with him. He shouted loudly, “Someone, call General Wei Rudeg over!”
A moment later, a Tibetan general stepped into the tent. Around forty years old, with a bearded bull-like horse and a bear-like beard, he looked like a savage who could kill and drink blood.
“Little Han girl, what are you looking for Ben Jiang for?” The Tibetan Great General Wei Ru’s voice was like thunder!
“Your Highness, there’s no need to be afraid. This is Great General Dege from our Tibetan capital, Luo Shi Wei Ru.” Gaer Qinling smiled and said, “You have to see clearly. Has he lost half of his ears?”
At this moment, Li Xueyan calmed down and said indifferently, “There is always someone lying about who is real and who is fake.” Whether this person in front of me is really Deg Danbawanger is not important to me. You don’t have to pretend here. I just want to tell you, since you are known as a hero who swore to trample on the Lanzhou Sword Finger of the Central Plains, please defeat Qin Mubai and defeat Guanxi Army in a dignified manner to fulfill your dreams and aspirations. It’s good that you used some unsightly tricks to poison our commander-in-chief while the two armies were communicating-but you still acted so grand and pretentious in front of me, how hypocritical and disgusting! How could you be such a despicable, shameless, wretched man in this world? However, a man like you can still be a Tibetan marshal above ten thousand people! –Truly worthy of being a savage race that drinks blood and feather, no different from a beast! ! “!”
If Li Xueyan had forced herself to stay calm and barely survived, then now that she said those words, she was truly moved and furious. Even she was a little surprised by this succession of words. When did she learn these harsh and vicious words, and when did she learn to curse?
This was definitely the first time in his life!
Gaer Qinling was neither angry nor surprised. His expression was calm until he was staring at Li Xueyan. When he stopped for a moment and blushed, he said indifferently, “You … finished cursing?”
“Not yet!” At this moment, Li Xueyan also didn’t care about the lady’s form. The princess was honored, so she spat it out quickly. “There’s a big box outside the tent with eleven heads inside. You must all recognize it. Gaer Qinling, no matter how hard you deny it, you know what you’ve done!”
“What did I do?” Gaer Qinling raised his eyebrows and spread out his hands with a bitter smile. “What do you want to do after saying it for a long time?”
“Hand over the antidote!” Li Xueyan was a little anxious.
“What if I don’t?” Gaer Qinling said with a smile.
“Then we will kill Deg Danbawanger! And declare to the world how despicable you, Gaer Qinling, are!” Li Xueyan was already a little angry and could not choose her words.
What made her angry wasn’t because she was anxious about Qin Mubai’s illness or hated Gaer Qinling’s despicable methods. Instead, Gaer Qinling’s current attitude was simply cynical, completely ignoring her.
“Then you guys can do as you please!” Gaer Qinling shook his head and smiled. “I only said once that I didn’t poison or send an assassin. I don’t need to use these methods to deal with Qin Mubai and deal with Guanxi Army. That’s not what I, Gaer Qinling, do! As for the antidote you want-there’s no way to talk about it!”
“Gaer Qinling, don’t be too shameless!” Li Xueyan was really anxious. If she couldn’t get the antidote back, wouldn’t Qin Mubai be dead?
“Scold me whatever you want. Even if you tell the world and let everyone in the world scold you, I, Gaer Qinling, still only have that sentence. I just said it, so I won’t repeat it again.” With that, Gaer Qinling glanced at Li Xueyan coldly and disdainfully. He walked towards the couch and raised his hand towards the sky, “See you off!”
“Gaer Qinling, you!”
Li Xueyan was anxious and annoyed. She wanted to cry. The two sergeants came forward to bring her out of the tent. She really wanted to pull out the sergeant’s saber and cut down Gaer Qinling to relieve her hatred!
For the first time in her life, Li Xueyan felt so desperate and helpless!
When Li Xueyan walked out of the tent, she looked up at the sky, her face as white as paper, and her eyes were completely dark. “Mubai, forgive me! I was too incompetent! … Why would a trash like me live in the mortal world?!”
Within the big tent.
Gaer Qinling sat on the couch and opened the small brocade box. He picked up one ear with a bronze ring and examined it carefully. He called the bear-like man to him and asked, “Take a closer look. Was this your brother Danba Wangjie’s ear?”
“It’s his, that’s right.” Xiong Pi Nan’s face was filled with anger as he roared, “To the Han people, my name is similar to my younger brother’s. My name is Danba Urji, and his name is Danba Wangjie. It’s the same when you say it soon, but only our own people can hear it clearly.”
“No, they did it on purpose.” Gaer Qinling put his ear into the brocade box and sneered, “Your brother is the captain of Zan Pu’s guards, and you are Great General Wei Ru. This can’t be confused. But that Princess Wen Cheng just said, ‘Great General Wei Ru De Ge Danba Wangjie’, this was a sinister slip of the tongue.”
“What do you mean?” Danbaulji said in confusion.
‘”Think about it, you are my general, and Danba Wangjie is Zan Pu’s personal guard captain. According to their words, Danba Wangjie is going to be a captive and then lie about being General Wei Ru. What does that mean?” Said Gaer Qinling.
Danbawulzi was confused for a while, then he suddenly slapped his head and shouted, “Wow, I know! They’re using Danbawanger to sow discord between Zan Pu and Marshal!”
“You finally understood, but shouldn’t you keep your voice down?” Gaer Qinling smiled coldly and said, “How can you hide such a trick from me? Not only do I not admit it, even Zan Pu cannot have the chance to admit it! Sacrificing a Danbawanger is a small matter. If there is a gap and suspicion between me and Zan Pu, then it will be big!”
“Marshal is wise!” ‘”Even if Danbawangjie is my younger brother, sacrificing him for the sake of the bigger picture is inevitable!” Danbawangjie was always smart and decisive. He would definitely be able to see through the sinister intentions of the Han people. Even if he died wrongly in Tang camp, he would not blame Zan Pu and Marshal! “Danbawangjie gritted his teeth.
‘”Ah!” Gaer Qinling shook his head and sighed. He stood up and patted Danbagarji on the shoulder. “It’s a pity that one of the heroes of the Deger Clan is missing from now on. I, the Tibetan Empire, have lost a loyal general!”
“Marshal, why don’t we chase Princess Wencheng back now? Or we might as well ambush her halfway to prevent future trouble!” Danbaulji roared as he could not vent his anger.
“No.” Gaer Qinling said firmly, “If you do that, sooner or later Zan Pu will know about it.” It is inevitable that a thin layer of window paper will be torn apart, and Zan Pu’s face will be extremely embarrassed. As subjects, how can we wronge Your Majesty like this? This kind of knot, is extremely difficult to untie, maybe in the future between Zan Pu and I will gradually appear estrangement, the Han’s treachery will succeed. Moreover, why should we feel guilty if we are not thieves? Since she has not poisoned anyone, there is no need to kill anymore. Let her go! ”
“Marshal, you’ve thought it through.” Danbagerjee sighed and said, “Let that stinking girl go back. She can stop those rumors and destroy the schemes of the Han people. If we attack her, it would be a false accusation. Tsk, tsk, tsk!-Pah! The Han people are sinister and cunning! They even call us despicable and shameless!”
“There is a saying in the Han people that the melon fields do not accept the crown. This despicable skill is useless to me, Gaer Qinling.” Gaer Qinling grinned arrogantly.
Danbagarji also laughed out loud. He laughed a few times, but he suddenly didn’t dare to laugh again. Because he noticed that Gaer Qinling’s expression suddenly became extremely serious.
“Marshal … what’s wrong?”
“How is this plan? I can see through it with a single glance. But in that case-is Qin Mubai really poisoned?” Gaer Qinling looked at Danbagarji with rapt attention and said.
“Then can there still be fakes?” Danbagel Ji rolled his eyes and said, “That girl, a grand princess, how could she bring her head and ears to the Marshal to make such a big joke?”
“Normally speaking, that’s right. But why do I feel that the Han people have a blessing in disguise, and that there is another scheme?” Gaer Qinling’s eyebrows darkened as he spoke thoughtfully.
“Still cheating?” Danbagarji rolled his eyes and felt that his eyes were completely darkened.
‘”Could it be that … it’s fake to ask for the antidote and false to sow discord? Tell me that Qin Mubai was poisoned and fell. This is their real intention!” Gaer Qinling’s lips curled into a cold smile as he muttered to himself, “Is that so, Qin Mubai?” … You’re so ruthless! Even Princess Wen Cheng should have been used by you, right? Poor thing, she was so desperate for you that she almost cried and knelt down to beg me, or drew her saber and attacked me, just to act so vividly and urgently in front of me. Tsk tsk, the truth is unreal, the truth is hard to distinguish … Wonderful plan, wonderful plan, what a bitter and fleshy plan! Good, that’s great! “This game of chess has finally produced some exquisite flavor!”
“Eh, Marshal, are you talking to me? Why can’t I understand a single word?”
“… Get out!”
