My wife came from billions of years ago

Chapter 39 Teahouse, Questioning

Tai'an Palace.

In the main hall.

Hearing Xiao Lingfei's question, Wu Tianxiong smiled and said, "Don't worry, Third Princess. When two armies fight, it is important to know yourself and the enemy. I know Emperor Qin too well. He will not sit still and wait for death."

"If we rashly send out troops now, we will most likely fall into Emperor Qin's trap."

"The Dragon Soaring Corps has entered Tai'an for some time. I wonder how much useful information His Majesty has received. Daxia's spies lurking in Xianyang City have sent news that Crown Prince Changqing and General Li Jingcang are leading the Flying Tiger Corps to station at Hangu Pass."

Wu Tianxiong heard this and said, "Princess, the news is too late. I have received the latest news that the Crown Prince and Li Jingcang's Flying Tiger Army have left Hangu Pass and are heading towards Taiming City."

"In addition, Emperor Qin also activated the Imperial Mausoleum Army, led by Xiang Zhan."

At this point, he turned to look at Li Mubai, "I believe General Li is no stranger to Xiang Zhan. Although he is not on the list of famous generals, he is a very difficult opponent."

"It's indeed tricky." Li Mubai said calmly, "Since King Tai'an knows the Qin Emperor's deployment very well, why not take the initiative to attack? Before the two armies arrive at Taiming City, let's take this city first."

Wu Tianxiong shook his head and said with a smile: "Princess, you don't know that the only armies that Emperor Qin can dispatch at the moment are the Flying Tigers and the Imperial Mausoleum Army. The armies under the command of the Second Prince and Qin Jian are resisting the Daqian troops, and Qin Qi is stationed in the northern cities to intimidate the Tianmeng Empire. They are all distant water that cannot quench the immediate thirst."

"I plan to wait until the Flying Tiger and Imperial Mausoleum armies enter Taiming City, and then annihilate them together. The outcome will be decided in one battle. The Qin Emperor will have no troops to dispatch, and by then we will be able to charge into Xianyang City without any obstacles."

It seems like they are standing still, but in fact they are doing it to solve the problem once and for all.

In addition, Wu Tianxiong knew that Emperor Qin valued relationships the most. If he could secretly eliminate Ye Daosheng, one of the three brothers Ye Zhantian, it would be a huge blow to Emperor Qin.

He asked the Dragon Devouring Hall and the demon clan to send strong men to assassinate the three people, but he chose not to take action because he was waiting for good news.

Concubine Xiao Ling said, "Then we will return to the barracks first. When Prince Tai'an takes action, send someone to inform us."

Wu Tianxiong personally escorted the two of them out of the palace. Seeing them riding their horses towards the military camp outside the city, he turned and looked at Yun Shou behind him, "Has there been no news from the Dragon Devouring Hall and the Demon Clan yet?"

"Your Highness, there are three people who want to assassinate the Crown Prince of Great Qin. The easiest one to kill is Prince Ning. The demon cultivators sent news not long ago that Prince Ning Ye Daosheng left the city. They have followed him. I believe that good news will be reported back soon."

"As for Crown Prince Changqing and King of Yan Ye Zhantian, they are both in the military camp. With masters like Qin Jian and Li Jingcang around them, it is still difficult to assassinate them. We need to give the Dragon Devouring Hall enough time."

"However, this time the Dragon Devouring Hall has issued a military order, and they will definitely succeed in assassinating the Crown Prince and King Yan."

Wu Tianxiong nodded, "Send a message to them to speed up."

"I understand." Yun Shou bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I just received news that Crown Princess Gu Qingcheng appeared near Hangu Pass. Do you want to send someone to attack her?"

"Crown Princess, the girl from the Gu Clan?" Wu Tianxiong laughed wildly, "God is really helping me. Elder Yun, you go there in person and make sure to capture Gu Qingcheng."

"She has fallen into my hands, and Crown Prince Changqing is at my mercy."

"Old slave, do it right away!"

..........

Three days had passed since leaving Qilin Pavilion. Ye Daosheng's carriage was traveling on the official road in the wilderness. Wu Hu's voice came from outside the carriage, "Your Highness, we will be able to reach Xianyang City in the afternoon."

"There is a tea stall ahead, would you like to take a rest there, Your Highness?"

Whenever he came across a teahouse or wine shop along the way, Wu Hu would appear and ask questions, taking good care of Ye Daosheng no matter how big or small the matter was.

"Take a break and get some fresh air!" Ye Daosheng's voice came from the carriage, and Wu Hu drove towards the tea stall.

Generally, the people who set up stalls on the official road are villagers from nearby. They would prepare some tea and cakes and sell them to passers-by on the official road to earn some change to supplement their family income.

The carriage stopped. Wu Hu first went forward to check it out, but found nothing wrong. Then he returned to the side of the carriage and said, "Your Highness, it's fine. It's safe."

Ye Daosheng, Daoqingluo and A'lian got off the car and walked towards the tea stall. A young servant came running towards them. He was not very old but very clean.

He was very polite, "Dear guests, please come in."

Several people entered the teahouse and sat down. Wu Hu said to the servant, "Two pots of good tea, and some cakes. Go!"

Upon hearing this, the servant left quickly.

Ye Daosheng watched him leave, his eyes swept over everyone in the teahouse, "Wu Hu, there is something wrong with this teahouse."

Wu Hu was about to look around, but Ye Daosheng stopped him, "Sit down, don't alert the enemy."

Dian'e saw Wu Hu sitting down next to him and looked puzzled, "Your Highness, how do you know there is something wrong with this teahouse?"

"In a teahouse in the wilderness, the skin should have been roughened by the wind and sun. The servant you saw just now had delicate skin and tender flesh, which is not what one would expect from someone who has been running a teahouse in the wilderness for many years."

"In addition, the servant should be a hidden weapon expert. There are obvious calluses on his fingers, which should be caused by years of using hidden weapons."

No one expected Ye Daosheng to be so observant. If there was really something wrong with this teahouse, then they were coming here for the prince.

Wu Hu and Dian'e were instantly on guard, but Ji Yuan was carefree and shouted towards the kitchen, "Can you please bring the tea and cakes faster? I'm starving."

Ye Daosheng gave A Lian a look, and the latter took out a piece of beef from the bag and handed it to Ji Yuan, "Eat this first."

Ji Yuan smiled innocently, "Miss A-Lian is still good to me."

As he spoke, he took the beef and prepared to eat it. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and said to Ye Daosheng, "Your Highness, can you eat it?"

"No, you eat it!"

Ji Yuan looked at Wu Hu and Dian E again, "I know you don't like to eat meat, so I won't let you."

Seeing him eating with voracious appetite, Wu Hu and Dian E both looked helpless. This guy's appetite exceeded that of the five of them combined.

I always feel that he can eat a whole cow in one breath when he is hungry.

Ye Daosheng also doted on Ji Yuan very much. After leaving Qilin Pavilion, he went into the city to buy a large amount of food for Ji Yuan. A Lian and Wu Hu brought back large and small bags, and now there was only the last piece of beef left in the bag.

The piece of beef weighed about three or four pounds. Before the waiter brought him tea and snacks, the beef had already gone into his stomach. "Sir, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

The waiter appeared holding refreshments and kept apologizing. Just as he put down the refreshments and prepared to leave, a sudden remark made the atmosphere in the venue become extremely tense.

Ji Yuan tightly grasped the Meteoric Spear in his hand, stood beside the servant, and asked in a thunderous voice: "This tea is poisonous, do you want to harm our prince?"

"Tell me, who sent you here."
