Zhong Ao Shuang did not say anything more. She took out Yue Chan's secret letter and handed it to Qin Tianxiong, waiting for him to read it with a smile. Qin Tianxiong opened the letter and looked at it. His hands could not help but tremble slightly. The expression on his face changed several times in the blink of an eye as he lightly sighed.
"General Qin, the reason why I've come to meet with you in secret is because of your highness. The princess has a message for me to give to General Qin."
"What do you mean?"
"The princess asked the general, did he forget his oath at the White Poplar Beach outside the capital?"
Qin Tianxiong's body trembled slightly as he looked at Zhong Ao Shuang with disbelief. Back in the capital, at the White Poplar Beach area, he and Yue Chan had once had a private conversation. It had originally been a secret between the two of them alone.
Even the former crown prince and the others did not know about this secret.
He had originally thought that it might not be Yue Chanjuan's intention for Zhong Ao Shuang to arrive. He was deeply afraid that she was being controlled by Zhong Ao and the others, and that she did not have much freedom.
Unexpectedly, Zhong Ao Shuang actually knew about Bai Yang Po's matter, which could only be known by Yue Chan Juan. If that was the case, it meant that Yue Chanjuan truly trusted Zhong Ao Shuang. It was indeed true that she had sent Zhong Ao Shuang to the northern border to meet with him in secret.
"I've never forgotten. Master Hou, what advice do you have?"
"I only came because of a secret command from the princess. It has nothing to do with great karma, and nothing to do with the emperor. The meeting between General Qin and I was a personal affair, and had nothing to do with national affairs. "
"I understand, she... How is it?"
Qin Tianxiong sighed. A year had passed, how was she?
"Her Highness the Princess is doing well now, it's just that she hasn't been able to take revenge for the great hatred she had in the past. She hasn't gotten rid of all the evil officials of the imperial court, so she can't help but sigh." When I heard that the general had arrived at the northern border, Princess Su Ye was unable to sleep, and was tossing and turning. "
Zhong Ao Shuang took out a short blade from her bosom. That short blade was the one Qin Tianxiong had given to Yue Chan for her protection. Yue Chanjuan stepped out of the blockage and kept it by her side the entire time. Before Zhong Ao Shuang left, Yue Chanjuan handed him her short blade as a token of her trust in Qin Tianxiong. She also reminded Qin Tianxiong of his previous oath.
Qin Tienxiong had originally given that short blade to Yue Chanjuan when Poplar Beach and Yue Chanjuan had made their vows.
"Why is this item in the hands of the marquis?"
Qin Tianxiong's hand gripped the treasured sword beneath his ribs as his eyes flashed.
"This is the gift that the General gave to the Princess at White Poplar Beach. Before she left, she asked me to bring it with me, did the General ever forget the vow I made at White Poplar City?" "If the general has already forgotten about it, then let me return it to him. We will never see each other again!"
"We shall never meet again in this life!"
Qin Tianxiong's face twisted slightly, revealing a pained expression.
"Will I ever see her again?"
"The princess said that if the general doesn't forget the oath made by Bai Yang Po in the past, the princess will come to the northern border in a few days to arrange a meeting with the general."
Qin Tianxiong suddenly stood up and rubbed his hands together, "Are you serious?"
He had been looking forward to it for too long. It was only when he calmed down in the Northern Frontier that he remembered how difficult it was to meet Yue Chan, given her identity.
Hearing Zhong Ao Shuang say this, he could not help but feel hope that he would be able to see her again.
"This is what the princess told me before I left. Does the general not believe it?"
"I, of course I believe in her. How can I possibly see her again?"
"The general should also know that it is inconvenient for the princess to come here now. When the matter of the north is settled, the general will fulfill his promise and the princess will recuperate, so he will naturally come to meet the general in the north."
"What am I supposed to do?"
"The chaos in the northern border should not be quelled prematurely. The general has an imperial order to lead the army, but it is not good to do anything openly. But it's still very convenient to secretly release water and do some secret things. "
Qin Tianxiong's sword-like eyebrows twitched as he stared at Zhong Ao Shuang and sneered: "Marquis An Ping, I remember that you are a Great Scholar of the Han Lin Institution. Afterwards, the Emperor has bestowed upon you the title of Marquis An Ping, what is your intention in allowing the Northern Frontier to continue being chaotic?"
"Will the general forget the princess' wish?"
"What does this have to do with the princess' wish?"
"Princess wants revenge. If the north is settled down, how will you proceed with your next plan?"
"Master Hou, what is Princess's plan?"
"The first step is to make the northern border even more chaotic. "The general only needs to make the first step. If the general is in a difficult situation, the princess will not make it difficult for him. Otherwise, the general's good prospects will be ruined."
Qin Tianxiong was silent for a moment before clenching his fist and smashing it onto the table, "Zhong Ao Shuang, the princess believes in you. If I find out that you betrayed her, I will personally kill you."
Zhong Ao Shuang laughed: "Betrayal? Do you know who arranged all these plans and schemes? Do you know that there are people from the Princess? Do you know that the Princess currently commanded the Redmakeup Army? Do you know who arranged the events at Mount Kunlun? Do you know who was behind all the things that were happening in the north? "
Qin Tianxiong looked at Zhong Ao Shuang in shock and asked doubtfully: "Could it be that this is all your scheme and arrangements? Why? Why are you doing this? "
"All of Your Highness' matters and plans were arranged by me. This includes this trip to the northern border and it has caused more turmoil in the northern border. You want to know why? This marquis is indebted to the Princess' trust and has entrusted great matters of revenge to you. I intend to take this opportunity to eliminate all the traitorous officials of the court and avenge the princess. That's all. "
Qin Tianxiong fell silent again. Zhong Ao Shuang's words had surprised him and surprised him.
He knew some things, but not many things. Now that he had met Zhong Ao Shuang, he learned even more secrets. What he did not expect was that behind all of this was ZhongAo Shuang's arrangements.
"The princess indeed trusts the duke, I wonder if this will be a blessing or a curse."
Zhong Ao Shuang laughed: "General, why are you so suspicious? The princess is wise and farsighted, only the general can compare to her. Since the princess has sent this marquis here, the general should trust this marquis. "
"What benefits does the duke wish to gain by betraying the greater good and the emperor?"
"Benefits …"
Zhong Ao Shuang's eyes were deep, and she couldn't help but sigh: "General, if we follow the princess' plan, what benefits do we get?"
"I … How can I compare?"
"Why not?"
Qin Tianxiong's eyes widened, "Could it be that you …"
Zhong Ao Shuang raised a hand to stop Qin Tianxiong's words. A pained look flashed in his eyes: "General only needs to know that I will not betray the princess. No matter what, I will fulfill the princess' wish and avenge her. "If the general is willing to stay, then please stay. If you are not, then please leave."
"Alright, I'll believe you for now. What do you want me to do?"
"This is the plan …"
Zhong Ao Shuang moved close to Qin Tianxiong's ear and whispered to him for a while. Then, she took out the map and drew on it with her hands. The two of them came together and conspired for a long time.
