Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

On the other hand, after the evacuation, Liu Chuang did not take Wu Qingye back to Fang Yuanjian's camp.

"Where are we going?"

Wu Qingye looked at Liu Chuang strangely, thinking that he would take him directly to find Fang Yuanjian.

But at this time Liu Chuang seemed to be taking him across the border of the Shenmu Kingdom.

"We can't go back now. His Majesty just sent a telegram saying that this time the fun has gone too far and that we should all return to the cities on the border of Western Shu."

"It's just the right time to escort the looted items."

"Isn't Fang Yuanjian in danger?"

Wu Qingye was suddenly confused.

"Fang Yuanjian will be safe. He is now a smokescreen that can confuse the enemy."

Liu Chuang told Wu Qingye about Qin Ming's idea.

Up to now, Qin Ming and others have not revealed their identities and relationships publicly.

Changsun might not be able to figure out whether they had joined forces with Fang Yuanjian.

Hua Yunhong certainly couldn't figure it out either.

But this also sent a signal that Qin Ming's troops had arrived in the border area and could unite with Fang Yuanjian at any time.

Knowing the combat effectiveness and danger of their troops, Hua Yunhong would definitely not push Qin Ming to Fang Yuanjian.

He might even take action quickly.

Trying to cover up at this time will only make the other party more suspicious.

"We don't need to worry about the rest. Just leave first. After the storm has died down in a few days, we can go find Fang Yuanjian again."

"His troops are now numerous and can definitely handle the pressure. Moreover, he has already established strongholds in the rear. If we can't defeat him, we can just run back to the area where the three parties meet."

"I see."

Wu Qingye suddenly understood, nodded and no longer hesitated.

They immediately followed Liu Chuang and caught up with the transport team they had originally arranged.

A large amount of supplies and silver were pushed back to several cities that had been ceded in the border areas of the Western Regions.

Hua Yunhong only learned the news the next day.

Du Zi stood beside him and said hesitantly:

"Your Highness, why don't we repair our relationship with Daqian? If they really want to join us, this battle will be very difficult to fight."

Everyone knows that Daqian's military strength is almost the best in the world.

Even Hua Yunhong would have a headache when facing them.

Although the two countries are extremely far apart, if there is chaos in the Western Regions in the future, they may really be involved and fight each other.

"I'm curious why they don't just help the Western Alliance?"

"We allowed a strange sect to develop like this, and their development trajectory is very similar to that of the Luo Sect."

"Go and capture a few members of the Datong sect."

Faced with the advice of his confidant Du Zi, Hua Yunhong did not respond directly, but instead brought up the matter for no reason.

"We did arrest some members of the Datong sect. What do you want to ask?"

In previous wars, the Shenmu Kingdom had also fought against the Datong Sect.

A group of prisoners were captured by them.

I thought these people were useless and had been sent to work in the mines.

But unexpectedly, Hua Yunhong suddenly mentioned them again.

"There's no need to recover those smuggled items. Send this letter of mine to Daqian."

After thinking for a moment, Hua Yunhong decided to contact Qin Ming.

"If we don't recover the smuggled goods, won't we just suffer a huge loss in silence? Our southern market is already in chaos. So much silver has disappeared out of thin air, and so much smuggled goods have also disappeared."

"This is a gift for him."

"To the one in Daqian?"

Du Zi was suddenly stunned.

He understood what Hua Yunhong meant if he wanted to repair his relationship with Qin Ming.

The best gift would be to never mention the smuggling.

In this way, they would pretend that Qin Ming had never been here, and Qin Ming could also obtain a lot of silver and gold out of thin air.

"It's really interesting. Does this guy want the entire Western Region?"

Hua Yunhong murmured, as if he had grasped the truth of the matter.

But if you think about it carefully, there are still many gaps that are difficult to fill.

"That's a bit too big an appetite."

Du Zi muttered:

"If they take over the Western Regions, there will only be a mountain range separating our two countries from the border. Once we become neighbors, conflict is inevitable. This wouldn't be a good thing for them."

Both Hua Yunhong and Du Zi felt that the strength of the Shenmu Kingdom was comparable to that of Daqian.

Therefore, they never understood Qin Ming's decision from beginning to end.

"Yes."

"I hope he will withdraw his troops on his own accord after seeing my sincerity."

……

Soon, Daqian received a letter from Hua Yunhong.

This time, Hua Yunhong regained his extremely humble attitude in front of Qin Ming.

After asking him about his well-being in the letter, he also told him about the situation in his dynasty.

By the way, he expressed his friendly attitude towards Qin Ming.

Although there was nothing written in the letter and there were no requirements.

But it has already revealed all their intentions.

After Song Dingsheng received the letter, he ran all the way from the Ministry of Rites to Chen Shimao.

"Prime Minister Chen, it seems that Hua Yunhong has changed his ways."

Chen Shimao read the letter carefully, then nodded slowly.

"Your Majesty has muddied the waters, and he can't see the situation clearly for a while."

"Let's take this opportunity to drive the Western Region coalition out..."

"Ah? So fast?"

Song Dingsheng didn't understand his decision. Shouldn't he continue to keep the Western Region coalition forces alive at this time to tie down the main force of the Shenmu Kingdom?

Once they are destroyed.

Mu Liuming turned around and returned to Hua Yunhong.

The first person to be liquidated at that time will be Fang Yuanjian.

The most crucial thing is that after they took over the Western Regions, there was no buffer zone between them and the Shenmu Kingdom.

This will have a significant impact on them if the opponent takes the opportunity to launch a long-range attack.

Fights continue to break out in the border areas between Western Shu and the Shenmu Kingdom in the Western Regions, and the friction between Daqian and the Shenmu Kingdom will inevitably intensify.

"Don't worry, Fang Yuanjian is here."

After thinking for a moment, Chen Shimao picked up a pen, wrote a letter and handed it to him.

"Go and telegraph this letter to His Majesty, so that He may make a decision as soon as possible."

"Row."

Song Dingsheng was from the Ministry of Rites and was very sensitive to the relations between foreign countries. Although Chen Shimao made this decision, he was a little worried.

However, when he thought about what Chen Shimao said, he quickly sent the message out.

Soon, Qin Ming received a report from the Daqian court.

After Elder Song explained Chen Shimao's intentions to him in detail, he quickly asked:

"Your Majesty, isn't it a bit too hasty to act now?"

"It's a bit fast. I still have some tricks that I haven't used yet. Please tell the teacher to wait and see."

To Elder Song's surprise, Qin Ming did not agree with Chen Shimao's idea this time.

Instead, he rejected it outright without even reading the letter.
