Hearing Xu Qingchen's words, Marquis Nan and his son were also shocked. The Prince Ding Mansion and the Da Chu State had been at odds for so many years, but there was still an ambush in the Da Chu State. Even now, the Da Chu State was in chaos and war, but it was still not exposed. This made the two of them marvel at the power of the Prince Ding Mansion. However, both of them knew their limits. Since Xu Qingchen did not elaborate, they would not ask.
Marquis Nan looked at the fluttering banners not far from the pass and asked, "How do you plan to deal with the Northern Tribes Army and the Xiling Army outside the pass?"
Xu Qingchen said indifferently, "The Northern Tribes are bent on conquering the territory of the Da Chu State. They will not fight us head-on. As for the Xi Ling Army, they were just following behind the Northern Tribes army and waving their flags and shouting. Since that's the case … let's take down these two groups of people together. "
Marquis Nan looked at Xu Qingchen and asked, "Are you confident?"
Xu Qingchen smiled and said, "Marching to war is Marquis Nan's business. How can you ask me if I have confidence? I am ashamed to say that I am able to come up with a plan or two, but I am not good at military matters. "Marquis Nan smiled and said," Young master is too modest. "Just based on Xu Qingchen's plan, he could not be considered someone who did not know anything about military matters. However, compared to Young Master Qing Chen's literary talent, this point was not so conspicuous.
"I am not modest. For this battle, I will have to trouble Marquis Nan and General Lü." Xu Qingchen said seriously.
Knowing that Qing Chen was entrusting the Feihong Pass and the soldiers of the Mo Family Army to him, Nan Hou's heart warmed. He said seriously, "Please rest assured, Young Master Qing Chen. This old man will not dare to slack off."
"That is good." Xu Qingchen nodded and smiled, "Let the Northern Tribes see if the Mohist army, which has not fought for many years, is inferior to them."
It was a simple and casual sentence, but it caused a sense of pride to rise in Nan Hou's heart. Although he had fought many battles in the first half of his life, he had never thought that he would be able to lead the Mohist army against the Northern Tribes and the Western Hills.
On this day, outside the city of the Emperor Of Xiling, there was a surge of people, and the atmosphere was awe-inspiring. The soldiers of the Mo Family Army, dressed in black, had already replaced the original soldiers of the West-Hill and stood on the city wall. This also meant that the Emperor Of Xiling's City now belonged to the Mohist army. Outside the city gate, a bright yellow flag embroidered with dragon patterns fluttered in the wind. Rows of carriages of all kinds were lined up by the side of the road outside the Imperial City, waiting for the time to set off. Today was the day when the Emperor Of Xiling officially left the imperial city for An City. Many nobles and ministers left with the West-Hill.
As for the common people, although there were some who left with the Emperor Of Xiling, there were not many of them. For the common people, loyalty to the Emperor Of Xiling and patriotism were very far away from them. Furthermore, the Emperor Of Xiling's City was not forcefully conquered by the Mohist army, but was given up by the Emperor Of Xiling. Thus, there were naturally fewer common people who were willing to follow the Emperor Of Xiling. The Mohist army had always had a good reputation. Rather than follow the Emperor Of Xiling and give up the place they had lived and worked for generations to go to an unknown place, it was better to live peacefully under the command of the Prince Ding Mansion.
Thus, in the packed crowd outside the city, there were more people who came to see them off or to watch the show than those who wanted to follow them. This made the Emperor Of Xiling feel somewhat desolate, but the common people were the most common people in the world. The Emperor Of Xiling naturally did not think much of them.
"Prince Ding, Wang Fei is here."
The Emperor Of Xiling was going to leave. Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li naturally had to come to see him off. Fortunately, after a few days of rest, Ye Li had recovered greatly. But Xu Qingbai was still lying in bed and unable to move.
Mo Xiuyao wrapped an arm around Ye Li's waist and protected her in his arms, not avoiding the gazes of the people around them. But Ye Li found to her shock that the people around them, especially the high officials and nobles, did not have the usual respectful and fawning expressions when they saw them, but were filled with extreme fear. When she looked closely, she found that these people's fearful gazes were not directed at her, but at the people around her. She couldn't help but raise her head to look at Mo Xiuyao in puzzlement.
Because Ye Li was pregnant, and Mo Xiuyao faintly found that Ye Li did not like him killing wantonly, or Mo Xiuyao himself was not willing to let Ye Li know of his personality. A few days after Ye Li woke up, the people around her did not tell her what had happened while she was unconscious. Ye Li naturally did not know why these people were so fearful.
"Your Majesty, I wish Your Majesty a safe journey," Mo Xiuyao raised his hands in a salute to the Emperor Of Xiling and said with a laugh.
The Xiling Emperor could not help but be stunned. He actually felt a little overwhelmed by the favor. He hurriedly returned the greeting and said, "I accept Prince Ding's auspicious words. Zhen also congratulates Prince Ding and Wang Fei on the birth of a son." Ye Li nodded with a faint smile and said, "Many thanks, Your Majesty. Take care, Your Majesty."
Even though the feeling of having to smile at this person who had taken over a large portion of his land and imperial city was very bitter, but fortunately, he was about to leave this place and completely leave Mo Xiuyao, the god of death. This caused the Emperor Of Xiling's smile to become more sincere. He said with a smile, "Many thanks, Wang Fei. Zhen will leave."
Mo Xiuyao smiled faintly and said, "I won't see you out."
The Emperor Of Xiling's dragon sedan stopped in the middle of the road not far away, surrounded by the palace guards and palace maids. Behind the dragon sedan were the carriages of the imperial concubines, princesses, and members of the imperial family. Seeing the Emperor Of Xiling being helped onto the dragon sedan, the others followed and prepared to depart.
After the dragon sedan started to move, Mo Xiuyao waved his hand to the people who had come to see him off and said, "Alright, you can all leave." Supporting Ye Li, he turned to return to the city. The people behind him were silent. Prince, you should at least act more realistically. Even if you don't watch him leave, at least don't hurry to turn and leave before the Emperor Of Xiling's dragon sedan has even taken a step away.
But the generals of the Mohist army naturally had no objections. The original nobles of Xiling were also not in the mood to show respect to their old master in front of their new master. After a moment of silence, they all left.
"Princess Ding … … concubine requests an audience with Princess Ding … …" Ye Li and Mo Xiuyao were just about to enter the city when they heard a sharp cry from behind them. Ye Li turned and saw Madam Bai rushing towards her with an anxious expression. Unfortunately, after the assassination attempt, Ye Li's guards had all been replaced by Qi Lin after Ye Li woke up. While Ye Li was not willing to do this, she knew that the incident this time must have frightened many people. So she did not object. She just thought of it as reassuring those who cared about her.
Madam Bai had just called out Princess Ding when she was stopped by the guards of the Prince Ding Mansion. She was still a dozen steps away from Ye Li. Seeing that Ye Li was about to be helped into the city by Mo Xiuyao, Madam Bai was unwilling and shouted, "Wang Fei … … concubine requests an audience with Wang Fei … …"
Everyone present was silent. Of course they knew about the Bai Family. The daughter of the Bai Family had been killed by Prince Ding that day. Many people guessed when the Prince Ding Mansion planned to move against the Bai Family.
