Spare my life! The princess can make the villains read each other's minds

Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment. What Qian Tong said was true.

Xiao Jun's surprise attack on the Qingshan Army does not mean that he will definitely win.

After all, the Qingshan Army has a large number of troops.

In addition, no matter what route 10,000 elite troops took, it was impossible to ensure that the news would not be detected.

Their original plan was to reach Shanhai Province as quickly as possible.

Even if Xiao Jun won, he would still need the support of a large army.

He took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry. Under the command of Yang Liu, the governor of Shanhai Province, there are 50,000 troops in Chuiyu City alone."

"We don't need to rush. I see that the soldiers are very tired if they walk fast. Let's walk slowly. This way, the rebels in Shanhai Province will be more relaxed."

"Our most important task is to trick the rebels into thinking that it will take a long time to reach Shanhai Province."

"Ok, deal!"

Qian Tong wanted to say something, but Xiao Yan frowned.

"Qian Tong, are you questioning my decision?"

Qian Tong sensed Xiao Yan's displeasure and could only lower his head.

"Don't dare!"

Only then did Xiao Yan nod in satisfaction, and then his expression relaxed.

"By the way, prepare a better carriage for me. It should have a big, soft chair where I can lie down and rest."

"We also need to prepare some women's supplies, such as toiletries!"

Qian Tong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that the reason his master slowed down the march was to wait for Tian Rumo to arrive.

Then, he wanted to take the opportunity to please Tian Rumo!

What happened to my master?

For the sake of a woman, he was willing to risk delaying military intelligence and slow down the march. If things went wrong, he would put Xiao Jun in danger!

If the myth of the invincibility of the God of War was broken due to their lack of timely support, one can imagine what the consequences would be.

Qian Tong was thinking whether he should persuade Xiao Yan again. Xiao Yan seemed to have thought of something and said, "Qian Tong, you continue to lead the army, slow down and head to Shanhai Province."

"I will change my clothes, lead a team of guards, and go back to meet the princess!"

Qian Tong was shocked. "Master, when the army is on the move, there will definitely be a lot of spies watching. If you lead the team back and people know it's you, it might be bad for you!"

Xiao Yan shook his head. "The princess's status is different now. Although my father will not kill her, my brothers and sisters regard her as a thorn in their eyes and flesh. If they know that she is coming to find me, they will definitely kill her along the way."

"I will personally bring people to pick her up. Don't worry. I can just bring more people!"

Xiao Yan felt that being a hero and saving a beauty would definitely change Tian Rumo's opinion of him.

He can win back Tian Rumo's heart!

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He no longer cared about anything else and immediately gave orders to lead two thousand elite Red Flag Army soldiers, wearing ordinary small commander's uniforms, to break away from the main force and go backwards.

Qian Tong was speechless as he watched Xiao Yan walking away.

Emperor Ming of Jin, who was far away in the capital, had been somewhat uneasy these past two days because there was really no news about Tian Rumo at all.

He did not make a big fuss, nor did he touch Tian Rumo's family. He just sent a large number of people to secretly look for Tian Rumo. After finding Tian Rumo, he showed goodwill to her and only asked her to come to the palace to apologize, and everything could be discussed.

However, he only realized now that even if he wanted to forgive Tian Rumo's offense, Tian Rumo had to know it first.

If Tian Rumo had always thought that as soon as she showed up, she would be caught by him, locked up in a safe place, and made medicine for him.

Then Tian Rumo will hide far away and not be found by him!

Half a year later, he was really done!

Princess Shi could see what Emperor Jin Ming was thinking, so she carefully suggested, "Your Majesty, do you want to issue a notice and follow the wishes of Princess Qi to investigate Yang Liu of Shanhai Province?"

"As long as the public is informed, the Princess of Qi will definitely know about it. Then, her anger will subside and she will show up naturally!"

Emperor Jin Ming's face was gloomy. "How can we let a woman with long hair and little knowledge handle state affairs?"

"If we give in to her this time, she will go even further next time, and interfere in the affairs of the court. How can we tolerate that?"

"Moreover, if we fail to properly handle the investigation of a Jiedushi, Yang Liu will join forces with other Jiedushi to cause trouble, and the court will be in a very embarrassing situation."

Nowadays, the Jiedushi were equivalent to local emperors, and Emperor Ming of Jin would coax them unless it was necessary.

Princess Shi had a sly smile in her eyes, "Your Majesty, you can inform Lord Yang Liu in advance and tell him that we need to pretend to be doing something so that he doesn't have to worry too much."

"Anyway, it's just a formality. The evidence we finally found points to Lord Yang Liu's integrity and dedication to public service. Isn't it enough to just give Princess Qi some slack?"

"Anyway, the Princess of Qi is a woman, so she probably can't investigate this matter in person. I see that His Majesty not only didn't blame her, but actually followed her instructions and sent an imperial envoy to investigate."

"How could the Princess of Qi not be grateful for your Majesty's kindness? She came to your Majesty and apologized with tears. If your Majesty taught her a lesson, she would naturally understand that women should not interfere in state affairs and are easily deceived."

Emperor Jin Ming's frown slowly relaxed. He looked at Concubine Shi with great admiration and praised her, "My beloved concubine is indeed very smart!"

Let’s go!

A thorough investigation of the intentions of the Jiedushi of Shanhai Province, if announced to the world, will surely lead to Tian Ruomo.

Talk to Yang Liu in advance, and then Yang Liu won't overreact and will cooperate instead.

Emperor Ming of Jin thought about it and finally agreed to do so!

He waved his hand and said, "Just as you say!"

He turned to Eunuch Zhu and said, "Go and handle it!"

Eunuch Zhu frowned silently. Concubine Shi was becoming more and more favored by Emperor Ming of Jin.

He was bribed by Concubine Li, so he had to remind Concubine Li.

He knelt down calmly, "As you command!"

Eunuch Zhu went to deliver the order of Emperor Jinming. Here, Concubine Shi sat in the arms of Emperor Jinming and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, if you want to control someone like the Princess of Qi, you can't go against her, you have to go along with her temper."

"She is a woman after all. No matter how capable she is, she can never be perfect in everything. As the saying goes, as long as a woman can be coaxed, she will become obedient."

"As long as you coax her, you will naturally get what you want!"

Emperor Jin Ming was delighted. He put his arm around Concubine Shi's waist and said with a smile, "With such a wise and kind-hearted concubine by my side, I have nothing to worry about!"

"In the future, you need to give me more advice and help me tie up this wild horse, Tian Ruomo!"

Princess Shi smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I am here to help you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Eunuch Zhu suddenly rushed in, forgetting to salute, and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"

"I just received a pigeon message from Shanhai Province. The entire Shanhai Province was captured by the Qingshan Army overnight!"
