Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“I feel the world is so much more beautiful now that Liu Mansheng is not in this tent.” Zhen Guogong joked with Crown Prince Yu. “What’s your next plan, Your Royal Highness?”
“Next, I plan on…”
Crown Prince Yu was speaking when…“Report—”
A frantic voice suddenly rang out.
“What’s the matter? Why are you so flustered?” Zhen Guogong disapprovingly looked at the soldier that had barged into the tent.
The soldier knelt on the ground. “Your Royal Highness, the Nandu Nation has sent us a formal letter to a duel!”
“Letter to a duel?” Crown Prince Yu raised his brows. “Pass it to me.”
The soldier presented the letter.
Just as Crown Prince Yu extended his hand to receive it…“Hold on!” Lou Qianxue stood up with her brows furrowed. She looked down at the soldier who reported the events.
“Read it.”
“Hmm?” The soldier looked up, appearing stunned.
“I said, read out the letter to the duel!”
All of the generals in the tent looked at Lou Qianxue, feeling puzzled.
Why is she making things difficult for a mere soldier?
“I… I…”
However, they saw that the soldier, who held the letter in his hand, began to uncontrollably shake as he looked at Lou Qianxue with a face as pale as a sheet…
Realization dawned on everyone, and Crown Prince Yu’s gaze turned aggressive. “Read!”
The soldier’s hand trembled, and he tore the envelope open…
At the next moment!
Thud!
His face turned black, and he collapsed onto the ground!
He was dead!
“!!!” Everyone gasped in shock.
Silence filled the place.
It was dead silent!
All of them looked at the letter to the duel with apprehension.
Whoosh!
Lou Qianxue snapped her fingers, and the letter was set on fire.
“Miss Lou! We haven’t read the contents yet. How could you burn it?”
“You dare read it?” Lou Qianxue looked at the man who had spoken. “Are you not afraid of being poisoned to death?”
“…” The man was at a loss for words.
A glimmer appeared in Lou Qianxue’s eyes. “Don’t worry! We will find out about the contents soon enough!”
Everyone was bewildered. “What do you mean?”
“Just wait for a while, and you’ll know.”
After a while, a loud commotion was heard from outside the tent.
“What’s the matter?” Crown Prince Yu frowned.
“Your Royal Highness, General Liu is clamoring, asking to see you.”
“Oh? Let him in.”
“Your Royal Highness!” Liu Mansheng entered the tent with a flushed face. “Your Royal Highness! It was Lou Qianxue who caused trouble! Let us hand Lou Qianxue over!”
“Hand me over?” Lou Qianxue raised her brows. “General Liu, what do you mean by that?”
“Hmph! Lou Qianxue! It’s all because of you! It’s all because you were reckless and destroyed the food supplies of the Nandu Nation! Now, the Nandu Nation is enraged before we even came up with a plan to counter them! One million soldiers have marched up to the gates of our city!!! Liang city is on the verge of destruction!”
“One million soldiers? Marched up to our gates?”
“Yes! The Nandu Nation stated that they will retreat only if we hand them Lou Qianxue in three days, or else they will immediately attack the city after three days! Your Royal Highness, we only have 700,000 soldiers, but the Nandu Nation has a million! Moreover, they have many experts… Right now, we are completely unprepared. If we are caught off guard, I fear we might lose Liang city!”
“So… you want us to hand over Lou Qianxue?” Crown Prince Yu’s voice was light, yet it made one feel chills to the bone.
Liu Mansheng was intimidated and did not respond.
Whoosh!
Crown Prince Yu stood up, feeling enraged.. He frostily stared at Liu Mansheng. “General Liu, I truly do not know how you have guarded Liang city for the past few decades! We came over to battle with the Nandu Nation, yet, you… Forget that you want to avoid going into war with the Nandu Nation as their army has descended upon Liang city, but you plan on betraying your comrade because of your cowardice! You might as well just surrender right away!”
