Chapter 1914: Ride Away
y princess consort, do you have the qualifications to say when it's your turn"Everyone looked over and saw that Mo Yunjing's face was as dark as thunder, while Mo Junyi standing beside him had the sam...An Xuetang smiled, "Oh, so you believe everything this princess says I didn't expect...this princess has such a high credibility in your eyes, huh"
Given that the conversation has reached this point, Xizi Ke'er naturally guessed it.
As it turns out, An Xue Tang and the others initially claimed they lacked sufficient explosives. That was all a lie.
It's just that I didn't fully trust her, so I didn't tell her the truth.
Earlier, she heard four sounds, indicating that four packages of explosives were used simultaneously.
Right now, she doesn't even know how many of An Xue Tang's men are still hidden within the already chaotic army.
And in which team are they again distributed
Would another incident like the one that just happened occur if An Xuetang continued to give orders
These unknowns filled Xizi Ke'er with panic.
She didn't dare to gamble.
After all, she was already short-handed. If she clashed with An Xue Tang and the others head-on now and lost most of her troops, what would she have left to fight her own mother
And although Xizi and Pan'er had placed those 60,000 soldiers under their command...
But these sixty thousand soldiers obeyed her because she had explosives and the help of people like An Xue Tang.
Because she feared the explosives, she was forced to enlist her.
If those sixty thousand plus soldiers had found out that she had already torn her face with An Xuetang and the others, it would have been impossible to get their help.
This would especially make them realize that she didn't have much ammunition, and it was unlikely that her 60,000 soldiers would willingly continue to serve and fight for her.
At this moment, Xi Zi Ke'er only felt that her head was about to explode.
After quickly weighing her options in her mind, she immediately realized that she didn't have the leverage to continue arguing with An Xue Tang and the others right now.
Just as she was racing through her mind, trying to figure out how to change this tense and hostile situation.
Feng Ming impatiently spoke again, "Half an hour that I've given you is almost up. Are the five thousand soldiers ready If not, then continue fighting."
Hearing this, Xizi Ke'er and the strategist beside her immediately looked at each other. Of course, they couldn't let them continue.
Perhaps having received Xizi Ke'er's meaning, the strategist immediately took two steps forward. His trembling hand hovered in mid-air, "Phoenix Valley Master, please don't act rashly. King Beijang and Princess Beijang, please do not be angry either. For the five thousand soldiers you mentioned, our prince will arrange them immediately. Please remain calm."
After the strategist finished speaking, Xizi Ke'er also stepped forward a few steps.
Her scarlet eyes fixed on An Xue Tang, "Five thousand soldiers are acceptable, but I have one more condition. Our animosity must remain a secret from everyone else."
An Xuetang curled her lips into a smile, of course she understood what Xi Zi Ke'er meant.
It's nothing more than fearing that the Empress' people and Xi Zi Pan'er's six thousand soldiers under her command will know that Xi Zi Ke'er's side has lost the support of the Northern Border King and Xun Tang Valley.
Especially Xi Zi's 60,000 soldiers under her command, once they knew that Xi Zi'er no longer had the support of Xun Tanggu and others in her hands, they would undoubtedly betray her again without hesitation.
An Xuetang fell silent for a moment, her brow arched, "Alright, I accept your terms."
She is not stupid, of course she wouldn't publicize this news at this crucial moment.
After all, she still needs Xizi Ke'er and the Empress to continue fighting each other. Only if they keep fighting will the Empress of Xiliang not have too many troops to spare to deal with them.
Seeing An Xuetang agree, Xi Zi Ke'er's blood-red eyes stared at her. She then ordered someone to quickly assemble five thousand soldiers to escort An Xuetang and the others back to the border of Beijiang City.
After the strategist went to prepare the five thousand soldiers, Xizi Ke'er clenched her fists and stared at An Xuetang, "Where is the antidote"
Xizi Ke'er needs those generals to strategize in order to confront the Empress head-on. Without these generals leading the troops, Xizi Ke'er's side would lose many chances of winning.
Therefore, Xizi Ke'er must get the antidote from An Xue Tang.
An Xuetang then leisurely took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Mo Yunjing.
Mo Yun Jing held the bottle, with a long arm swing, saw the white bottle go straight to Xi Zi Ke'er.
Xizi Ke'er took two steps back repeatedly, and after a moment, seeing that the bottle was about to fall, she dared to reach out and catch the porcelain bottle.
Then An Xuetang said, "The medicine in the porcelain bottle can temporarily delay the toxicity of those generals. At least for three days, they will not suffer from another attack and can live like normal people. However, if a cure is not found within three days, they will die from the poison."
An Xuetang has already calculated that it will take about three days to get from here to the border of Beijang City.
So, three days later, as long as they safely reach the borders of Beijang City, she would give the antidote to Xizi Ke'er.
The five thousand soldiers chosen by the military strategists, regardless of their thoughts, would risk their lives to escort their generals safely to the border of Beijiang City for their sake.
Xi Zi Ke'er clenched her fists, gritting her teeth, "If no one brings us the antidote in three days, what then An Xue Tang, don't try to play tricks on me. After all, there have been moments of true affection between you and me. To scheme against me at this crucial juncture won't benefit you in any way."
An Xue Tang smiled. "Rest assured, this concubine has made arrangements. Three days from now, as long as we successfully enter the territory of Beijang City, someone will personally deliver the antidote to you."
At this point, Xi Zi'er had no ability to refute.
Even if she wanted to force An Xuetang to hand over the antidote now, she wouldn't have the means to do so.
She was truly afraid of the explosives that An Xuetang and the others had in their hands.
That power was truly beyond her capacity to withstand.
The strategist quickly arranged the five thousand soldiers. At this time, Xizi Ke'er leaped and stood high up.
She addressed the five thousand soldiers, saying, “Listen up, you all must safely deliver King Beijang and Queen Beijang to the borders of Beijang City. If anything happens to them, you will come before me with your heads!”
After Xizi Ke'er finished roaring, the five thousand soldiers immediately raised their hands and said, "Yes, Your Highness."
At this moment, Feng Ming and Han Yun exchanged glances. Their swords swished through the air in unison.
In the next instant, the brothers from Qingyun Pavilion and Xuntang Valley immediately walked out of Xizi Ke'er's army.
They nonchalantly and calmly led several horses over.
In full view of everyone, An Xuetang and Mo Yunjing and others mounted their horses.
Before leaving, An Xue Tang turned her head and glanced at Xi Zi Ke'er, "Since we've met once, I wish you all the best. If we have the chance to meet again in the future, I hope that by then I can call you 'Your Majesty'."
After she said this, she rode off with Mo Yun Jing on one horse.
Feng Ming and Han Yun and the others looked at each other, then mounted their horses and followed closely behind. misunderstood. I was merely considering the feasibility of this matter. The new imperial concubine should indeed be killed, but as Your Highness saw today, the emperor has sent a considerable number...
