Resisting the Wind and Splendor

"Change battlefield?" Chu Xiaohe was completely stunned; he had never even considered this possibility.

"So, Ali and the Prince mean that we should no longer attack the Daganlu Alliance?"

"Let's stop fighting. There's no point in fighting. We'll negotiate peace with Yuwen Shu after he has completely taken back the Daganlu Alliance."

"Would he?"

“It’s not his place to refuse.” Chu Yueli smiled and glanced at Lu Beimo.

“By then, my husband will have taken over the Urchin Alliance, and the Sulan Alliance will be captured by the combined forces of the Qin and Ming families. Yuwen Shu will be isolated and helpless, and he will have no choice but to cooperate with us.”

These words made Chu Xiaohe understand completely.

He was so startled that he jumped to his feet.

"Ah Li, Your Highness, do you mean... we'll change our route to the Urchin Alliance and take it over?"

He thought about it for a moment, and for a moment, he was still a little uneasy.

“But Ali promised before that he would give the Urchin Alliance to… Prince Jin.”

“He did come, but he didn’t keep his promise and didn’t send troops to the Urchin League. So, the agreement between us is completely invalid. Why should I keep my so-called promise?”

A sharp, cold light flashed in Chu Yueli's eyes.

"That bastard, it's time to wake him up completely!"

……

Chu Yueli did not order the army to set off immediately, but instead mobilized the Chu family army first.

The next day, the Chu family army, led by Huo Qing, Chu Yihang, and Miao Yucui, headed to Urchin League.

"Their army is setting off today? They didn't even discuss it with me!"

Yuwen Shu was also greatly surprised. Lu Beimo and Chu Yueli's way of doing things was so fast that it was unbelievable.

He and Master Mo were locked up here and had no chance to go out and inquire about news, but Yuwen Ying was not under any house arrest. She was free to come and go as she pleased, and no one cared where she went.

Such a major event as the army's departure could not be concealed; Yuwen Ying herself could see it with her own eyes.

After making some inquiries, they learned where the army was headed.

Yuwen Shu was still shocked.

"What if I don't agree? What if..."

"Your Highness, they probably expect you to agree, since you have no other choice."

Compared to Yuwen Shu's shock, Master Mo was only surprised for a moment, and after a moment, he also felt that... it seemed to be a matter of course.

“Even if I go back, I may not be able to take over the Daganlu Alliance immediately. Since Yelü Han wants to occupy the Daganlu Alliance, he will definitely try every means to prevent me from going back. I may not be able to return to the city of the Daganlu Alliance alive.”

Even if they go back, they'll probably be assassinated the moment they enter.

Don't Lu Beimo and Chu Yueli ever think about the consequences before they do things?

"No, I need to go and have a serious talk with them!"

The next morning, Yuwen Shu was invited to a side hall.

Today, it wasn't Chu Yueli and Lu Beimo who went to see him in person. When he came out, Yuwen Shu felt somewhat neglected.

In particular, when he arrived, Chu Yueli, Lu Beimo, and Lu Yunfei were still playing with the children in the side hall.

No one cared when he arrived; everyone's attention was focused on Lu Beimo's son, and they completely ignored him.

"Ahem!" Yuwen Shu coughed.

No one paid attention.

"Cough cough!" Yuwen Shu coughed twice more.

Still no one paid attention.

The third time, Yuwen Shu raised his voice, and they finally reacted.
