Chapter 315
The eldest princess is somewhat messy in the wind.

Although she said it nicely, Jiang Ran was her strategy to defeat the enemy.

But although he said this with great assurance, he was still not sure whether he could do it or not.

But the result told her.

Not only can it be done, but it is also very easy to see Jiang Ran like this.

I guess running back and forth a few times in this military formation will be easy.

This man's martial arts skills are extremely high...

No wonder the owner of Zuodaozhuang and Qi Tianyue all fell into his hands.

The eldest princess was in a mess, let alone Guan Changqing and others.

Looking at Jiang Ran one by one, it was as if they were seeing a god descending to earth.

Guan Changqing let out a sigh of relief:

"If Master Jiang is willing to join the army, I, Jin Chan, can conquer the world!"

"This can't be said nonsense."

Jiang Ran waved his hands quickly.

He said it as if he was some kind of dragon-slaying sword...the kind that could conquer the world.

Isn't this asking for trouble for yourself?
Guan Changqing also consciously made a mistake, coughed, turned to look at the general who was unable to move on the ground, and said with a smile:

"General Hou, I didn't expect that it would be like this when we meet again, right?"

Jiang Ran felt relieved when he heard what Guan Changqing said.

It seems that we have caught the right person.

The eldest princess took a sip of internal energy and shouted loudly:

"Hou Ning has been captured. Put down your weapons. I, Jin Chan, have tolerance and will never kill prisoners!!"

If Jiang Ran hadn't cut off Pang Kun's tongue before, this would be somewhat convincing.

But now that Pang Kun has learned from the past, many people dare not believe what the eldest princess says.

However, Hou Ning was indeed arrested.

So many people were watching helplessly, unable to stop them...

For a moment, the military's morale was dispirited.

Even though there are still people trying to gather, these people only need to think of Jiang Ran's invincible martial arts in the army.

They all lost heart.

Fear is contagious. As soon as the first soldier who dropped his weapon and ran away appeared, Qingguo was already defeated.

Seeing this, the eldest princess immediately ordered:

"Kaicheng pursuit!!!"

Although there is a saying that you should not chase after poor bandits, in fact the eldest princess also knows that even if she catches up, it is impossible to capture or kill all these tens of thousands of people.

But how could we miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

Naturally, if you kill one, you will lose one, and if you capture one, you will lose one.

This battle is a great victory, and when reinforcements arrive, we can consolidate our forces and retake Huwei Pass.

And now the morale of Jinyang Mansion is also booming.

The soldiers in front of the gate immediately opened the city gate. The group of people on the top of the city, as well as the martial arts masters, all got off the city wall, either running wildly or using their physical skills to chase.

Of course, the cavalry team is also indispensable.

There was a sudden roar, and the momentum was not small, which caused the Qingguo army to collapse. Their legs were smoking as they ran, and they only regretted that their parents had lost two legs.

Jiang Ran didn't join in the fun, but he didn't leave just yet.

He just asked Yuan Tang and others to go back and wait for him.

The eldest princess chased him for thirty miles.

At this time, she just ordered to return to the city for rectification.

In this pursuit, hundreds of enemies were killed and nearly a thousand prisoners were captured.

With this great victory, the eldest princess was in high spirits, and her injuries seemed to have improved a lot.

But after returning to the city, the eldest princess felt a little pain in her head when she saw Jiang Ran sitting on the stone next to the city gate.

Jiang Ran waved to the eldest princess:

"Congratulations to the princess for winning the battle and repelling the remnants of the Qing Kingdom's army."

"..."

The eldest princess was silent for a moment and said to Guan Changqing and others around her:

"You guys go back to the government office first and discuss the next steps. I have something I want to say to Master Jiang alone."

"it is good."

Everyone nodded, and then said goodbye with Jiang Ran clasping fists.

Jiang Ran also returned the favor one by one.

After everyone left, the eldest princess got off her horse and came to sit next to Jiang Ran:

"I plan to return to the capital someday. The 8 taels of gold I owe you will definitely be given to you when I arrive in the capital."

"Although the crisis in Jinyang Mansion cannot be completely eliminated, it is still safe for the time being.

"It seems a bit unreasonable for the princess to drag me along like this, doesn't it?"

Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows slightly:
"You insist on dragging me back to the capital. Do you have other motives?
"In order to prevent some misunderstandings... I have to tell the eldest princess in advance that I am already married and have a confidante in the world.

"If you really plan to find me as your consort, you're looking for the wrong person."

"Beautiful to you!"

The eldest princess gritted her teeth and rolled her eyes at Jiang Ran:
“I’m really looking for you to come back to the capital for something.

"But what it is exactly can only be determined after we get the capital.

“Of course, you can also choose not to go.

"Then these 8 taels of gold..."

"..."

Jiang Ran squinted at the eldest princess:
"Your Highness Princess... Jiang is a Jianghu person. If you threaten like this, aren't you worried about Jiang's wrath?"

The eldest princess spread her hands:
“It’s not a blackmail, it’s really helpless.

"You are a person who knows the current affairs, so you should know the current situation.

"The Qing Kingdom falsely accused me of killing their little prince. This undocumented crime really leaves me helpless.

"You saw it before when the two armies were in formation. They made it clear that they were unreasonable.

“It’s nothing more than wanting to start a war.

"Therefore, as you said before, no matter whether we win or lose this battle, we have fallen into the opponent's plan and suffered a heavy loss."

"...The main thing is you, I am a fool, what does this matter have to do with me."

Jiang Ran rolled his eyes:
"On the contrary, if it weren't for me, this Jinyang Mansion would have been in chaos.

"The entire city has to be given away...even your life may not be saved."

"Yes."

The eldest princess nodded:
"You are kind to Jinyang Mansion for protecting your family, and you are even more kind for saving my life...

"So, if you really want to make me angry, I can only let you do whatever you want.

“However, you should know the current situation, Qingguo will not let it go.

"As I said before, I can't touch the treasury of Jinyang Mansion, let alone let you take it away.

“Not only that, once the war actually breaks out and the surrounding cities gather troops, the consumption of silver will be an extremely terrifying figure.

"Therefore, the money in the surrounding cities cannot be moved. Once it is moved, the soldiers fighting in front of the battle line will eat and drink whatever they want. Should they be allowed to fight with the enemy's steel guns with pitchforks and poles?
"It's not that I don't want to give you the 8 taels now, it's really helpless.

"If you still feel that I am deliberately making things difficult for you after listening to this, and you are not relieved...then I will let you punish me."

Punish with a hammer... Jiang Ran always felt that the eldest princess was teasing him with her words.

He let out a soft breath. In fact, the eldest princess's words were indeed meaningful.

There's going to be chaos at the border.

Qingguo has a big problem... What did Tianshangque do in this? Jiang Ran and the others could only see a corner of the truth in Jinchan. No one knew what happened on the other side of Qingguo.

Jiang Ran even felt that the Lord of Heavenly Palace had other motives for directing such a scene.

But what he was planning...Jiang Ran didn't know.

But no matter what it is, it is absolutely impossible to inherit Jiang Tianye's legacy.

This is a pretext that is brought to the table.

As for the fact that the eldest princess wanted to go to the capital, apart from the fact that Jinyang Mansion really couldn't get money, it was probably because of the dispute with Qing Kingdom.

She planned to use herself to do something else.

Jiang Ran is fine with this.

As long as you give Jiangran what he wants, what else can he do?
But the attitude still has to be shown.

If the unruly eldest princess hooked her finger, Jiang Ran would rush over... What sense does that make?
"What are you thinking?"

The eldest princess's voice reached Jiang Ran's ears.

Jiang Ran said casually:

"I'm wondering how to punish you."

The eldest princess was stunned:
"Do you really want to punish me? You are treasonous and rebellious."

"Eh?"

Jiang Ran was stunned: "As a royal family member and the eldest princess of the dynasty, do you plan to break your promise and get rich?"

The eldest princess was speechless and said:

"Then...then how do you want to punish me? If...if you can't let others see it, you can't do it in public.

"I'll follow you back to the inn later, and I can punish you however you want, okay?"

"..."

Jiang Ran felt that these words brought her to an end.

He stood up immediately:

"Walk."

"it is good."

The eldest princess also stood up.

"You are so tall..."

Jiang Ran glanced at her:
"You go back to your government office, and I'll go back to my inn."

"Then will you punish me?"

When the eldest princess said this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but want to rise.

She could guess that Jiang Ran couldn't resist teasing her like this.

Looking at his reaction now, I find it really interesting.

"Punishment... is fine. I'll have time later. I have other things to do now.

"But your Royal Highness, Princess, don't you plan to take back Huwei Pass yourself?" Jiang Ran changed the topic.

The eldest princess shook her head:
"First of all, I am seriously injured and it is not suitable to fight in front of the battle. Secondly, I have to rush back to the capital as soon as possible to explain this matter to the emperor.

"Although there is a fast horse messenger and an eight hundred mile rush, the message is concise and concise but does not give the full picture. I am afraid that the emperor is also confused now.

"Thirdly... leading troops to fight is not my strength.

"General Guan is fine now and can lead his troops to capture Huwei Pass.

"He has great prestige in the border town, and I shouldn't usurp him.

"Therefore, there is no need for me to stay here..."

Jiang Ran thought for a moment and felt that what she said made sense, so he said:
"In that case, when does the eldest princess plan to set off?"

"In just these few days."

The eldest princess glanced at Jiang Ran: "How is it?"

"When we set off, please go to the inn and let us know. Jiang will follow the princess to the capital."

Jiang Ran spread his hands:

"Who told you to still owe me 1000 taels of gold?"

The eldest princess was about to nod when she was suddenly startled:
"Wait, why is there an extra 1000 taels?"

"You have to talk to your eldest nephew about this matter. Outside Jinyang Mansion, he insisted on coming over to join me at the table. I said no, and he wanted to sit. I said that if I wanted to sit, I would have to pay, and he sat down without asking the price.

“Later, the price I paid for this seat was a thousand taels of gold.

"It's a pity that he was poisoned at that time and probably didn't know about it."

Jiang Ran briefly summarized the matter.

The eldest princess didn't even bother to ask why Shan Cong was poisoned, so she quickly said:
"In that case, he doesn't even know about this matter, how can he count? What's more, you actually sell a seat for 1000 taels... It's simply unreasonable!"

Jiang Ran smiled:
"Although he didn't know it, the IOU was paid."

Jiang Ran took out a note from his arms, opened it and said to the eldest princess:

"It also has your eldest nephew's private seal on it."

The eldest princess took a quick look and felt faint.

Gritting his teeth, he said:
"When he comes back, let's see if I should break his legs... I can't stand anymore. You, please help me."

Jiang Ran was speechless for a while, then he sorted out the IOU and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket.

Then he helped the eldest princess to go to the government office.

As he walked, Jiang Ran muttered:
"We agreed to go back to our respective homes...why do we have to send you off again?"

"Does it humiliate you to send this princess?"

The eldest princess was angry:
"Besides, since I'm weak now, aren't you worried about me fainting on the street and being kidnapped during this chaos of war?"

"Why are you kidnapped? To be my little wife?"

Jiang Ran laughed:
"You can't bear it with your shoulders, you can't lift it with your hands, and I'm afraid you don't know anything about female celebrities.

"If I ask you to cook a meal, it will probably burn down the house.

"If I steal you to be my little wife, that person will probably regret it for the rest of his life."

The eldest princess turned pale when she heard this:
"Does this palace disgust you like this?"

"what?"

Jiang Ran was stunned: "What does it have to do with me?"

"Then in your eyes, I am so miserable?"

The eldest princess was even more angry.

Jiang Ran thought for a moment and asked:
"So the eldest princess is proficient in female beauty?"

"..."

The eldest princess's anger subsided a little.

Jiang Ran asked again:

"Or do you know how to cook?"

"..."

The eldest princess had only a little anger left.

Jiang Ran still wanted to speak, but the eldest princess had already taken the lead:

"Shut up!!"

"I haven't said anything yet."

Jiang Ran was somewhat innocent.

"What else do you want to say?"

The eldest princess glanced at Jiang Ran bitterly:
"The skills you talk about are probably even better than your martial arts skills..."

"Princess Quan is just complimenting me, thank you very much."

Jiang Ran smiled slightly.

The eldest princess didn't want to pay attention to him, turned her head and looked at the scene on the street.

The night has passed by now, and most of the residents were sleepless last night.

However, Jinyang Mansion had a curfew last night and people were not allowed to go out. Now at dawn, everyone ran out.

I learned that they defended the city last night and achieved a complete victory. Not only was the Jinyang Mansion intact, but the Qingguo people were also driven back.

Suddenly there was laughter and laughter everywhere.

Looking at the scene in front of her, the eldest princess said softly:
"If we were defeated last night... what would happen to them?"

Jiang Ran thought for a while and said:
“It depends on how the people of Qing Country make decisions.

"Is it to massacre the city and sacrifice the flag, or is it to be gentle and appease?
"If it's the former, the man will die, and the woman will die after being humiliated... Isn't this how human life is in troubled times?
"If it's the latter..."

"What about the latter?"

The eldest princess looked at Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran said softly:

"They will be panicked at first, but if Qingguo really does nothing to them, they will gradually calm down.

"Some people will think that this is fine, nothing has changed, life goes on as usual... I hope the war will calm down soon.

“There are also some people who yearn for Jin Chan.

“Comparing the national policies of the two countries... we can determine the winner and loser.

"And if people like this are never able to return to Jinchan, they will gradually forget about Jinchan.

"For ordinary people, it doesn't matter who is in charge of the family. What matters is... whether they can have enough food and clothing.

"If someone can do that, they will definitely support it."

The eldest princess felt a little aggrieved when she heard what he said.

You want to say that they are all my Jin Chan subjects, how can you think that it will be good to be managed by Qing Kingdom?
But at the end, he fell into silence.

After a while he said:
"This is not something you can say with the knowledge of a charlatan."

"I just said it casually and you just listen."

Jiang Ran said with a smile:

"The world is so rough, how can we have any real insights... Well? Look at those people over there..."

Jiang Ran suddenly reached out and pointed.

The eldest princess looked in the direction of his finger.

Immediately his eyebrows stood up, no need for Jiang Ran's support, his steps were windy, and he was in front of those people in the blink of an eye.

There are four people here.

One standing and three sitting.

The three sitting there are eating steamed buns and drinking porridge.

It was very enjoyable to eat.

One of the handsome young men finished drinking the porridge in his bowl and let out a long breath:

"Shutan...Why does this young master feel like he hasn't had a good meal in a long time?"

"Really? Is this bowl of porridge really so delicious?"

A voice suddenly came from the ear.

The young man was about to nod when he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Why does this voice sound so familiar?

Turning around suddenly, he met the eldest princess's eyes.

Immediately overjoyed:

"The emperor..."

I was about to blurt out a title, but as if I remembered something, I quickly swallowed it back and changed it to:

"Little aunt...why are you here?"

"Looking for you."

The eldest princess smiled sadly:
"If I hadn't been looking for you, why would I have come to this side of the city? How could I have known that something had changed at Huwei Pass...and how could I have seriously injured someone?"

"Seriously injured!!"

After hearing this, the young master suddenly stood up and looked at the eldest princess nervously:
"You, where are you injured? Who is so bold?

"To be honest, little aunt, I have been in the world for a long time, and now I have met many heroes and heroes in the world.

"I heard that someone had a delusional plan to break into Jinyang Mansion last night. It's really unreasonable.

"That is to say, we only entered the city this morning. Otherwise, if it had been last night, we would have called Qingguo's dog talent to see what it means to be a master of the world!"

"Oh?"

The eldest princess smiled:
"Do you know any other masters?"

As soon as he said this, the young man's eyes suddenly became a little straight.

Then he passed by the eldest princess in one go.

The eldest princess was stunned, and when she looked back, she saw that the young master had already arrived in front of Jiang Ran.

Put your hands together:

"Master Jiang, long time no see!!"

Jiang Ran smacked his lips: "It's not too long..."

It's just that you don't know.

"Indeed indeed!"

Mr. Jin nodded repeatedly, and then said to the eldest princess:

"Emperor... Auntie, let me introduce you to the famous Jingshen Sword Jiang Ranjiang."

"Oh."

The eldest princess glanced at Jiang Ran:
"Master Jiang...how can you bear it?"

You cheated such a stupid kid out of his money... doesn't your conscience hurt?
