Transmigrating into a short-lived cannon fodder, she beat the son of destiny to pieces

Autumnal Equinox is the busy farming season.

Under Song Mu's governance, the people had a very good harvest this year.

However, just when everyone was still immersed in the joy of the harvest, an urgent letter from eight hundred miles away was delivered to the imperial study.

"Snapped!"

Song Mu was so angry that he swept all the memorials on the table to the ground.

"The Xianbei are indeed treacherous!"

Earlier, Daxia won a complete victory in the Battle of Yanmen and signed a three-year peace agreement with the Xianbei.

Now, only half a year had passed, and the Xianbei once again led their troops south to capture cities and plunder land.

It's really hateful!

But the situation was urgent, so Song Mu urgently summoned civil and military officials to the imperial study that night to discuss countermeasures.

------

Ye Mansion.

Ye Qingyuan was furious at the moment, "How could a good person disappear?!"

During this period, he always knew that Ye Ling had become a hostage of the State of Yan.

Just for the benefit of his family, he has always turned a blind eye.

Now I haven’t gained any benefits and the person is gone?

"Send someone out to look for him!"

Sui Ning coldly warned him, "Father, I advise you not to make this matter public."

A few days ago, Ye Ling followed Shen Yu and fled north to Yan in pursuit of her dream of becoming queen.

Ye Qingyuan didn't understand.

But he has always been aware of the conflict between Sui Ning and Ye Ling.

Now that he saw Sui Ning acting as if it had nothing to do with him, he became furious.

"What do you mean? Ling'er is your biological sister after all. How can you be so cold-blooded and heartless?!"

His son has always been very outstanding, but he is not close enough to him.

Therefore, his relationship with Ye Ling as father and daughter is closer.

Sui Ning sneered and said, "Ye Ling has been staying with Shen Yu for a while now. Now she's gone. What do you think?"

Ye Qingyuan's brain began to work rapidly.

He had a vague guess in his mind, but felt it was unlikely.

But at this moment, Qin Zheng hurried in from outside.

Before they could exchange pleasantries, Qin Zheng said solemnly, "A Ning, something big has happened."

It turned out that the emperor had just learned the news that the Xianbei were moving south.

But the next moment, the guards came to report that the Yan State hostage Shen Yu had escaped!

"The Xianbei are moving south, and the Yan State is also beginning to stir. The Emperor has ordered us to depart immediately."

Qin Zheng frowned as he recalled the explosion scene he had seen earlier.

If that thing is really controlled by the State of Yan, the border will be in danger!

"This battle came so suddenly, we don't have much time left. Hurry up and pack your things. We will reunite at the military camp."

After saying that, Qin Zheng left in a hurry again.

Ye Qingyuan had been listening nearby, and at this moment, his heart finally settled down.

Seeing that he looked devastated, Sui Ning said, "Do you know where she went now?"

"If the Emperor hears of her disappearance, not only will our wealth and glory be over, but our Ye family will be wiped out!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyuan's forehead broke out in sweat, and he began to lose his mind. "This... this..."

Businessmen pursue profit.

Although he was focused on revitalizing the Ye family, he was also an honest businessman.

He never imagined that one day their Ye family would face the threat of having their property confiscated and their clan exterminated.

"If you don't want to be beheaded, it's best for everyone in the mansion to keep their mouths shut. I will bring her back myself."

After finishing the explanation, Sui Ning no longer paid attention to Ye Qingyuan. After saying goodbye to Xu, he also rode away on horseback.

Fearing that something unexpected might happen in the State of Yan, the large army was divided into two groups.

One part, led by Qin Ke, was stationed in the Yanmen area, and the other part, led by Qin Zheng, went to the border of Yan State.

Xu Chenglin looked worried and asked, "General, can you leave the entire Yan border defense line to these young people?"

Although the State of Yan is weak, the young generation of generals led by Qin Zheng have never fought alone, which makes it hard not to worry.

“If young eagles want to have a wider sky, they cannot always live under the protection of eagles.”

"Daxia will one day need us to hand it over to this group of young people. They are all very powerful, so trust them."

At this time, the army led by Qin Zheng was heading towards Yan with high morale.

They are all smart people. They were separated this time and they all understood Qin Ke’s intention, so they were all eager to try and full of confidence.

Only Qin Zheng looked solemn along the way.

During the break, Qin Zheng found Sui Ning alone and asked her about his doubts.

"A Ning, the noise Shen Yu made on the day of the assassination...was that the secret weapon he relied on?"

He didn't investigate further at first because he trusted Sui Ning.

But now the success or failure of this battle is at stake. Only by knowing both ourselves and the enemy can we win every battle.

Sui Ning explained, "It is indeed a secret weapon, but that's just what they think it is."

After Sui Ning's explanation, Qin Zheng finally felt relieved.

If this is true, perhaps we can use our own tactics to defeat the enemy in this battle.

------

Yan State, on the open grassland.

Emperor Yan, Shen Yu, Ye Ling and a group of Yan's ministers were standing on a lookout tower a few hundred meters away, ready to observe the explosive power of gunpowder.

Previously, because of offering the secret recipe of gunpowder, Ye Ling enjoyed the highest treatment in Yan State.

As a result, Shen Yu jumped from an unpopular hostage to the most valued prince of Emperor Yan.

All the ministers gathered around Shen Yu at this moment, praising him in various ways.

"Although the Second Prince is in a foreign land, his heart is still with Dayan. He is still willing to go through great pains to obtain the secret treasure for Dayan. We admire him."

"Your Highness has suffered a lot in Daxia these years!"

"Your Majesty has taught us well. It is a blessing for us and for Great Yan to have such a high position!"

Hearing the praise in his ears, Shen Yu did not show it on his face, but he was very pleased in his heart. He felt that all the years of enduring humiliation in Da Xia were worth it.

However, the Third Prince of Yan, who was also a prince of the State of Yan, was quite dissatisfied with this.

"My Lords, it's probably a little early to say this now. After all, we haven't even seen the power of this gunpowder yet."

"Who knows if it's really as shocking as my royal brother said, and it will make the gods and ghosts weep?"

Shen Yu had witnessed the power of a gunpowder explosion with his own eyes, so he did not take the Third Prince Yan's actions seriously.

"Whether what I said is true or not, just open your eyes and look carefully later, my royal brother."

In his opinion, this was just the jealousy of the Third Prince Yan.

Such behavior is no different from that of a clown.

Once the gunpowder explosion pilot is successful, all the rumors against him will disappear.

Emperor Yan interrupted the confrontation between the two at the right time, "Alright, both of you stop talking."

At this time, the guards came to report that everything was ready and the gunpowder explosion demonstration could be carried out at any time.

Shen Yu personally stepped forward to light the fuse.

This concerns the national affairs of Yan State. As the fuse becomes shorter and shorter, everyone's heart becomes tense.
