Chapter 85: Resolving the Shura Field!
Xiao Yan could only describe the atmosphere at this moment with one word, and that was cold!
Although Ye Youyue is cowardly, she is not the kind of person who is afraid of things.
Now she is not so generous as to share the love she has given herself with others.
But Ye Youyue understood that her status was only slightly higher than some maids, and it was almost impossible for her to become the Crown Princess.
So he had no objection to Xiao Yan finding another woman, nor did he dare to have any objection.
I just told myself to be fine, but when things really happened, I still felt a little aggrieved.
Xiao Yan knew that it was time for him to introduce himself.
"This is the daughter of the Champion Marquis, Jia Lingyao, and also my... fiancée."
Although Xiao Yan knew that this news would be cruel for Ye Youyue, it was something she would have to face sooner or later.
I might as well take this time to comfort him.
Sure enough, when Ye Youyue heard this, her face changed and she said, "Congratulations, Your Highness!"
Then she turned around and left crying. It turned out that she was the wife with such a high status, and she was the clown!
"Youyue, Youyue!"
However, Xiao Yan was stopped by Jia Lingyao, who then said to him, "It's not appropriate for you to go there at this time. I'll go!"
As he said that, he followed in the direction Ye Youyue was running.
Xiao Yan felt his scalp tingling, he was afraid that the two would start quarreling.
Just at this time Duan Tianya came over and had something to report.
Ye Youyue ran into the East Palace Garden, leaned against the pillar of the pavilion and started crying.
Jia Lingyao has been following behind him all the way here.
When she saw Jia Lingyao following her, Ye Youyue hurriedly tidied herself up.
"Are you here to laugh at my joke, sister?"
Jia Lingyao didn't say anything, but took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped her tears.
"Such a beautiful person would look ugly if her face was covered with tears!"
"Let me guess, are you angry about my coming, or are you feeling aggrieved about your experience ?"
Ye Youyue didn't expect Jia Lingyao to be so direct.
"Both. I know that I have a poor background and cannot compare with my sister. I have never thought of competing with my sister for anything."
"Your Highness has been away for the past few days, and I have been busy with all the big and small matters in the East Palace. I can't bear it when you suddenly come back like this."
Unexpectedly, Jia Lingyao smiled and said, “Well, if it were me, I would feel wronged too!”
"But there are some things that have to be faced, right?"
"I know my presence makes you feel awkward, but you may be the first person like Your Highness, but I will definitely not be the last."
"So why do you have to be jealous all the time?"
Ye Youyue frowned when she heard this. Just as Jia Lingyao said, Xiao Yan is the crown prince now and will be the emperor in the future.
By that time, there will be more women around me, and I won’t be able to handle the jealousy.
"I didn't come here today to claim any status. I just wanted to get to know you."
"After all, we are all living for the same person from now on."
Although the two have different identities and statuses, it is true as Jia Lingyao said that they will live for Xiao Yan in the future.
"I would rather we become good sisters than scheming rivals. That would only embarrass Your Highness, wouldn't it?"
Ye Youyue could still feel that Jia Lingyao's kindness was genuine and not just fake.
"No, no, no, I am here to serve His Highness. How dare I become your sister? You are the future Crown Princess."
Speaking of this, I actually felt a little disappointed. After all, this was not the pie in the sky that Xiao Yan had promised me before.
Seeing Ye Youyue's cautious look, Jia Lingyao felt a little distressed.
"If I say yes, then yes. As long as you treat me as your sister, we are good sisters. Come on, call me sister."
Hearing this, Ye Youyue raised her head and cried out tearfully, "Sister...Sister."
Jia Lingyao smiled and nodded with satisfaction: "Hey, good sister!"
"Since you acknowledge me as your sister, this is for you!"
As he said this, he took off the bracelet on his wrist and put it on Ye Youyue's wrist.
"Don't refuse. This is a gift from my mother. Now I give it to you."
"I hope we can get along well in the future. I don't like people fighting each other. If you are dissatisfied with anything, just tell your sister directly!"
If Xiao Yan was present, he would definitely be shocked. Such a large-scale Shura scene was resolved by Jia Lingyao with just a few words and a bracelet.
"Thank you, sister!"
Upon hearing this, Jia Lingyao nodded in satisfaction.
"Okay, His Highness is still worried about you, let's go back."
Ye Youyue could only nod, and the two of them went back chatting and laughing.
"Arrange this matter as soon as possible, and have someone go to the Ministry of War to inquire about Li Guang's situation."
"It's been so long now. Winter will come in a few months. The climate of the grassland by then will not be something our Great Zhou soldiers can withstand."
"If you cannot annihilate all the Xiongnu, please come back as soon as possible. They have done a good job and I am very satisfied."
In fact, Xiao Yan knew that the first order was an almost impossible task. After all, tracking in the desert is not an easy task.
There were traces the moment before, but once the wind and sand pass, all traces will be buried.
"Your Highness, I have already asked the Ministry of War about this matter. After all, this is within the scope of our Jinyiwei's investigation."
"General Li Guang has led his army into the desert for more than half a month. If we calculate the distance now, if nothing unexpected happens, we should have pursued them to the so-called northern desert."
"Beyond Mobei is an extremely cold land, which is not suitable for survival, so we must have chased them to the end."
After hearing this, Xiao Yan began to think about it and took out a map from the jar and started to look at it.
Although the drawing is relatively simple, you can still see some of the locations clearly.
"This is the only place in Mobei that is suitable for survival. This must be the location of the final battle."
"I just don't know if our soldiers will get lost in the desert. If that happens, it will be dangerous."
"I don't want our soldiers to not die on the battlefield, but be buried in the desert!"
Upon hearing this, Duan Tianya quickly said, "Your Highness, please be at ease. According to the news sent back, they are fine at the moment."
“There are traces to follow along the way, and most importantly, these traces all pass through the oasis!”
"Then this proves that the direction of pursuit is correct. It is only a matter of time before General Li wins."
Duan Tianya's explanation made Xiao Yan feel a lot more at ease, but they were in the desert after all.
"Alright, keep close track of the army's movements. If anything seems amiss, have them retreat from the desert the same way they came."
"How can the lives of the Xiongnu people be compared with those of my Great Zhou soldiers!"
