Chapter 1639: The Capital Assembly

remely interesting.How many years has it been, how many years since anyone had called Duan Changmian by that namePutting themselves in that position, everyone thought, if they were publicly humiliated...Chapter 1639: Imperial Court Meeting

Looking at Zhao Tailai's eyes, Su Pingbei immediately understood.

"Interested" Su Pingbei asked meaningfully.

“These are urgently needed by the Guza tribe.”

Zhao Tailai didn't deny it. He turned his gaze and smiled at Su Pingbei, "It all depends on whether General Su is willing to part with it."

"We both know, with my limited forces, and after this battle, the Liao army's rear and front lines will get news immediately, then they will launch a large-scale search. How I can escape with these people is still a problem. It's definitely impossible to take these supplies away."

Zhao Tailai nodded and said, "Then why not give it to me"

"Your Highness has given no command," Su Pingbei said.

"Matters should be handled according to expediency. Your Highness cannot know everything, so the authority to decide now still rests with the General." Zhao Tailai replied.

Su Pingbei hesitated a little.

To be honest, both Zhao Taili and the Guza tribe gave him a bad feeling.

A tribe that dared to betray even the Liao Dynasty, a man who transformed from a spoiled playboy into something neither divine nor demonic, how could one trust him

After weighing our options, Su Pingbei said: "You must help us escape."

Zhao Tailai raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "The Guzha tribe doesn't have that much capability."

"Yes."

Su Pingbei sank his voice and said, "We can disguise ourselves as warriors from the Guza tribe. As long as we can pass through the front lines, once we return to the Qin territory, we will be safe."

Zhao Tailai remained silent, clearly weighing his options.

A moment later, he smiled and said, "Deal."

Su Ping also let out a sigh of relief.

He absolutely couldn't take these supplies with him, he could only destroy them on the spot. Zhao Tailai had seen this, which is why he made the request.

If it weren't for Su Pingbei, he would definitely agree.

Kesu Pingbei ultimately still kept an eye on things, exchanging this pile of supplies that was completely useless to him and even a burden for the condition that allowed him to successfully lead his brothers away.

In this deal, everyone came out ahead.

...except for the dead and unrepentant Hu Yan Zuo lying on the ground. ...

······

Just as a major change occurred on the battlefield at Yueya Pass, news that Qin had lost control of Yueya Pass spread back to within the Qin empire at the fastest speed.

Everyone panicked over this.

No one could have imagined that Yuemen Pass, which had guarded the borders of the Qin state for decades, would suddenly fall.

People in the Gansu-Shaanxi region, even began to flee their homes overnight.

And the message was also sent back to Beijing at the first opportunity.

The entire capital city instantly erupted in excitement.

With the Prince absent and the Emperor in a persistent coma, Zhao Xuanji and Su Zhenting virtually govern the dynasty.

When the message arrived, Zhao Xuanji immediately convened a meeting.

All government departments, officials of rank three or higher in the capital, must attend and are not permitted to take leave.

In the Taihe Hall, solemn and dignified.

The courtiers jostled and murmured amongst themselves, each with a grim expression on their faces.

They were all too aware of the prowess of the Liao army.

Now that the Yuezhang Pass has fallen, the Qin Dynasty must consider how to deal with the wolfish Liao army.

And... what about the prince on the front lines What's become of him

The clamoring discussions continued until Zhao Xuanji and Su Zhen Ting arrived at the Taihe Hall together, finally calming down.

Everyone watched the two of them, knowing that no matter how much they discussed it, the final decision rested with these two.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

Zhao Xuanji first took the stage, saying faintly: "The three hundred years of the Qin Dynasty's mountains and rivers have reached the most critical moment."three treasures.Yelü Qiming, seeing the unexpected turn of events, showed no panic in his eyes, instead, a fierce gleam flickered within them.He not only didn't run, but instead smirked at Li Chen and...
