Seeing the generals charge over, these soldiers looked at each other in dismay, but after just being provoked by that brother from Qingyun Pavilion.
They remained calm, their emotions undeterred. Even when their general roared in anger, they didn’t immediately lower their swords.
Those several generals were extremely fast and rushed over quickly.
They first glanced at this brother from Qingyun Pavilion, seeing that he had no expression on his face.
They too couldn’t guess what the man meant.
Immediately, a general drew his sword and chopped the swords out of the hands of several soldiers.
He glared at them, sword pointed menacingly at their throats, his voice dripping with rage, “Who dared to attack? Who gave you the audacity to run wild here?”
After being provoked, I felt a surge of injustice.
Under such rebuke from their own general, one soldier couldn’t help but retort, “General, it was he who provoked us first.”
“The general will be silenced.”
This general wouldn’t give him a chance to talk back. After roaring once, he put his sword directly against the soldier’s neck, as if to say that if he dared to continue being disrespectful.
The sword in his hand would slash down mercilessly.
Several other soldiers, seeing this posture, knelt down and bowed their hands, “General, please calm your anger. It’s not that we are willing to be enemies with the brothers of Qingyun Pavilion, it’s just that he… he was too over the line.”
The brothers of Qingyun Pavilion suddenly burst into laughter.
His laughter immediately caught everyone’s attention.
Those several generals were also watching him.
He, however, spoke in a calm and measured tone, “So, where did I go overboard? I was merely informing you that our Prince BeiJiang and his Princess do not appreciate being followed.”
“I’m just telling you, if you follow, this is what will happen to you. Which of my words do you think is provocative?”
These generals were unaware that Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang had left.
So hearing this, they were obviously taken aback.
nor do I care about that.
One general came to his senses and immediately asked, “What’s going on? Where did the King of Bei Jiang and his Queen go?”
Hearing the general ask this, the brother from Qingyun Pavilion smirked and raised an eyebrow. “What? When did it become necessary for us to report the whereabouts of our Prince and Princess to you generals?”
“!!!” He said that, and these several generals immediately sank their faces.
At this moment, I finally understood why the soldiers around me were so excited and even drew their swords against this man.
After all, this was on their own turf, yet this group of people were being threatened by outsiders on their own ground.
Whoever it is, no one can swallow this bitterness.
Moreover, their soldiers are full of youthful vigor; how could they stand such provocation?
That’s why I couldn’t help but draw my sword against him. Not to mention these few soldiers, even these several generals who considered themselves experienced and weathered people were taken aback.
Hearing the provocative tone of these brothers from Qingyun Pavilion, I feel like striking back.
Seeing that several generals had darkened their faces, the brother from the Azure Cloud Pavilion stopped fanning the flames.
He raised an eyebrow and took the initiative to say, “Oh, our prince and princess are just going out for some fresh air. A married couple wants to be alone sometimes.”
“Stay back! Otherwise… you’ll really anger our Prince and Princess. Then, none of you will be able to take the blame.”
His words also provided them with a way out.
As expected, one general, though still with a grim expression, spoke up and said, “It turns out that Your Highness and Her Royal Highness were just out for some fresh air. We were only worried about the safety of Your Highness and Her Royal Highness.”
After all, our Xi Liang country is not safe now. If Your Highness and Her Royal Highness were to leave, and something were to happen to them, we would be unable to account for it to our Princess.
“If even you say so, then we have nothing to worry about.”
“And there will never be any more absurd behavior like following the Prince and Princess around, so you don’t need to worry about that, brother.”
Seeing them descend the steps, the brother of the Qingyun Pavilion nodded and then turned to enter the tent.
……
After he came in, the several brothers all gave him a thumbs up.
He smiled, his voice low, “Oh, stop it.”
At this moment, another brother suddenly asked, “When those generals rushed over just now, did they seem different in any way?”
This person thought about it carefully and shook their head, “I didn’t see anything out of the ordinary.”
“It shouldn’t be like this, the Princess said that after one incense stick, the poison would take effect. If we calculate carefully, the time is almost up.”
A few people shrugged.
<I don't even know what's going on.
On the bed, Han Yun chuckled, speaking carelessly, “What’s the rush? Didn’t you see that King Beijiang and his wife have already gone leisurely to watch the sunset?”
“Don’t worry about that, what’s meant to come will come. For now, just focus on resting and getting your strength back.”
These few people immediately bowed, “Yes, Master.”
……
After this brother of the Qingyun Pavilion turned and entered the tent, those generals exchanged glances, their eyes filled with intense hatred.
It was obvious that they were extremely displeased with the people from Qingyun Pavilion, and couldn’t understand where they got their sense of superiority and arrogance at this moment.
You see, they were already in the Western Liang kingdom and still living in their tents.
To dare to provoke them on their own turf?
This is courting death.
Xi Zi Ke’er, Your Highness, is not here at the moment, and before departing, Your Highness forbade them from tearing their faces apart with this group of people.
A few hours ago, with the help of the King of Beijang, they dared to confront the tens of thousands of soldiers led by Xi Zi Panger head-on.
Though things were unresolved, they couldn’t bring themselves to completely sever ties with the King and Queen of Bei Jiang and the people of Qing Yun Pavilion. Despite their anger and frustration at this moment, they knew better than to provoke them further.
Thinking about this, they felt stifled. Several of them gritted their teeth and then slunk back to the meeting camp.
Xi Zi Ke’er’s strategist has been in the military camp all along, and he is already aware of what happened outside.
Seeing several generals return at this moment, and noticing the extreme anger on their faces, he let out a chuckle. “Why are you all so eager? Our crisis hasn’t been resolved yet, so let them continue to be arrogant for a while longer.”
“Once our prince has dealt with the emperor, you can come back and settle accounts with these Qingyun Pavilion people. They are just a minor gang; hardly worth your attention.”
As if suddenly enlightened by the strategist’s words, the generals’ anger seemed to subside considerably.
After they had calmed down, some people found that they were feeling unwell.
Then the first person to react clutched his chest, the sharp pain radiating from his heart turning his face pale.
Upon seeing this, others furrowed their brows and asked, “General Wang, what’s wrong with you?”
