The King of the Warring States Era - C47
Chen Ling’s eyes shone with a gold light as he stared at Bai Ruoxi’s body. From the beautiful outline of his face to the perfect protruding outline of her body, the noble aura that he naturally carried caused Chen Ling to feel a bit relaxed. Just as he was about to probe, a horse’s roar came from below the mountain, followed by a scout messenger holding a bronze token running up the mountain, under the guidance of the guards, he arrived in front of Chen Ling in an instant.
“Reporting to Lieutenant, there is a secret report from the frontline!” The scouts handed over the secret letter. The intelligence envoys of Wei Country had been sent by the Golden Arrow Emissaries. The former had a high status, and their mission was to carry out important tasks throughout the country. The Copper Arrow Emissaries usually sent out information from the frontlines of the battlefield.
This time, the first feeling Chen Ling got was that he couldn’t stay here for long. Once the people ambushing him found out that it was a fake, they would definitely guess that he had missed his train, and hid his plans from the sea.
Bai Ruoxi was intelligent, and within her senses, she could see the things that had happened after he finished speaking. A light suddenly flashed in her eyes as she said in astonishment, “Could it be … Could it be that your team escorted Chief General Qin? ” She was worried that she would know too much and end up in trouble.
Chen Ling looked at Bai Ruoxi, and called him clever, but he did not add it in, and only smiled: I hope that Ruoxi can temporarily protect this secret for me, Originally, General Dong had split up into two, we had secretly escorted Gan Mao to the front, and there were five thousand men escorting him, attracting everyone’s attention. Who knew that the moment we received the news, the five thousand man army would already be ambushed and all of them would be annihilated, and the fake Gan Mao news would quickly spread out, and then our group would be exposed to the citizens, so we have to speed up our journey.
Bai Ruoxi looked at Chen Ling with admiration. At this time, she suddenly thought of how it would only take three hundred people to charge into the hundred thousand Qin Army army, capture the enemy commander alive, and then retreat safely. How much courage and bravery did it require, how much intelligence and ability did it require, how many heroes in the world could do that?
Even the legendary Sword Sage wouldn’t be able to charge into a hundred thousand troops and capture the enemy commander. One could see that in order to achieve great things, wisdom and bravery were indispensable.
Thinking about that, Bai Ruoxi’s heart surged, her face flushed red, she quietly looked at Chen Ling’s handsome and refined face, he looked just like a noble son, but with his thick armor, he carried a strong sense of masculinity and unyielding will, which made people have a good impression of him. Since ancient times, beauties loved heroes, and the young miss of Lady Bai was no exception.
Bai Ruoxi mustered up her courage and took out a jade pendant from her bosom. It was beautifully patterned and delicate, simple and beautiful, with a dragon and phoenix pattern carved on it. She passed it to Chen Ling and softly said, “This is the ancestral jade pendant Ruoxi passed down from her mother since she was young.
Chen Ling received the jade pendant, as though he felt that it was definitely not as simple as a normal jade pendant, but under the current circumstances, it was not good to reject, and he originally had some feelings for the young miss, he happily accepted it, played with it, and then smiled: “As a treasure that doesn’t cost anything, I do not have anything good to give to you, Daliang City, when we meet, I will give the young miss a poem, what do you say?”
Bai Ruoxi’s eyes lit up, her face flushed red, and she said with a smile: “As you wish, I will not dare to go against the rules!”
Chen Ling laughed out loud, and naturally held onto Bai Ruoxi’s jade hands, walking out of the Maple Forest down the hill, and returning to the campsite.
Chen Ling walked over and shouted at the three thousand soldiers, “The situation has changed, we have to rush there immediately, is everything clear?”
He hadn’t said anything, so who could be sure? But after following Chen Ling around for a long time, the soldiers were gradually getting used to the leader’s way of speaking.
“I got it!”
“We will set off immediately. The cavalrymen are in front of us, and we will send out two hundred cavalrymen to form a small team. We will advance ten li and check out the situation ahead.” Chen Ling gave the order again, maintaining a high vigilance.
“Ok!” The three armies roared in unison.
Chen Ling nodded and shouted: “Let’s go, run and move forward!” Once the order was given, the knights and the soldiers began to march in an orderly manner. Soon, the flags were flying and the dust was flying. The soldiers were galloping on the road. Gradually, the three thousand soldiers and their horses disappeared into the vast wilderness.
Bai Ruoxi stood where she was, looking at the direction Chen Ling left in, feeling a sense of loss in his heart, she sighed lightly, the day where they meet on the main path, may the Sovereign be at peace, she sang out, “Zero Rain, Qi Meng, Yang Liuyi. The worry in his heart was enough, but it was enough to injure him. They were like a river, meticulous and unhurried. It was the fate of the heavens and earth. Her cry was like that of an emperor, lingering in my heart. “Carrying the sun in spring, traveling together with your son …”
… ….
He was still worried, he decided to lead five hundred soldiers and choose five hundred fine horses from the cavalry unit to escort Gan Mao along the small road at full speed. The other two thousand five hundred people continued to travel along the main road in a grandiose manner, still led by Chao Gai and Liang Jieyang, the two Academy Officer s.
Five hundred warriors rode fine horses, galloping at top speed through the starry sky, cutting through thistles and thorns. During the night, they crossed the Yellow River, followed the Huai River south, and took a shortcut towards Daliang City.
Three days later, King Wei was already in sight.
It had been twenty years since King Wei Hui moved to the capital. In terms of location and convenience, it was located on a plentiful plain, bordering on the north side of the Yellow River, on the south side of the Great Lakes, and connected to all directions by water. It had become the largest material distribution site in the Central Plains.
In the past, the reason why the Wei Country did not make Dalian their capital was only because when the Han Zhao Wei and his family divided, the southern plains under the Wei clan’s control were still barren and barren lands, while the Dazhou Kingdom was only a small city. At that time, An Jun was the center of the Wei clan’s influence. Located at the intersection of the Yellow River’s Fen River, it was well-developed and had a solid foundation. Naturally, it became the capital. He didn’t want to use Li Teng’s method since the day he became a Marquis of Wei, so he did his best to develop farming on the south bank of the Yellow River.
Along with the prosperity of farming, craftsmen and merchants also came one after another. In the span of more than a hundred years, Dazhu had become a large city on the surface. There were many businesses and shops, and it became the world’s largest city — — Wei City. In addition, many famous scholars from various countries had come to settle down and set up a new school. The style of literature was flourishing, and as time went by, it became the center of civilization in the Central Plains.
It turned out that the current third prince of the Wei Nation, Gong Ziyu, had received the news and came to help Chen Ling and the others with his trusted aides and foreign delegate. A vortex of power was brewing in the Daliang City and Chen Ling was undoubtedly the most famous person in the vortex.
