Tianyi interjected with enlightenment: "What does the elder mean, are you planning to marry us in the Hetao?"
"Exactly." Lingxian also said quickly: "It is a marriage. Only through marriage can the relationship between us become closer. Moreover, our family has invested such a huge bet on the Marquis. If the Marquis encounters misfortune,
, then we are trying to draw water from a bamboo basket but in vain? Although Qingcheng is dull in qualifications, he is also somewhat knowledgeable in martial arts. After many discussions, we all agreed that we hope Qingcheng can marry into the Loop like Lianchen."
"I wonder what Princess Qingcheng is thinking?" Tianyi tilted his head and said to Xue Qingcheng.
Lingxian took over the conversation: "It is not that the saint of the Bloody Plateau cannot get married. Moreover, the royal goddess is not allowed to make her own decisions on marriage matters. As a saint of the Bloody Plateau, she has the obligation to make sacrifices for the happiness of her people."
Tianyi ignored Lingxian, but persevered and asked Xue Qingcheng: "What we want to hear is just the true thoughts of Her Highness the Princess. Elder Lingxian must not mind. For us, even if there is no marriage, if the main attacker agrees
, and it will definitely be fulfilled.”
Xue Qingcheng was obviously prepared, but looking at Tianyi's clear eyes, she finally said frankly: "The little girl has not had much contact with the Marquis, but it is not too much. Regarding the Marquis' concern for the country,
The little girl has always admired his concern for the people and his sincerity and openness. Lianchen and the little girl have a close relationship. Since she feels that the Marquis is a person she can trust for the rest of her life, the little girl is also very happy. The little girl is willing to marry into the Hao Mansion.
Although there is an element of marriage, I also like the character of the Marquis and the virtuous nature of the girl."
Haotian frowned: "Princess, you don't have to be like this. God's will has just said that no matter what choice the princess makes, it will not affect my original promise."
Xue Qingcheng shook her head: "Master Hou, don't worry too much. Qingcheng really wants to marry Master Hou. Master Hou is a real courageous man, and he is young and promising, and he has a good wife at home, so this is not an insult."
You have given me Xue Qingcheng. We, the daughters of the Blood Clan, have always dared to love and hate, unlike you men and women from the Central Plains who always like to be secretive."
Haotian was silent for a while. He resisted the marriage from the bottom of his heart. He had no good impression of this kind of marriage without any emotional basis. For himself, he felt that his cooperation with the Bloody Plateau was already an occupation.
He gave the other party a huge advantage. As for Xue Qingcheng, he didn't know what she was thinking at all. Naturally, he didn't want to ruin her happiness because of himself.
Under this situation, God still spoke: "Princess Qingcheng, we fully understand your sincerity. As for the marriage, we do not agree, but if you insist on it, then we will not
No objection. But Princess Qingcheng, after all, this is related to the happiness of your life, so please think it over carefully."
Xue Qingcheng smiled shyly, but her tone was very firm: "Qingcheng has made up her mind. Qingcheng truly admires the Marquis. If the Marquis does not dislike her, Qingcheng is willing to stay with the Marquis forever."
"In that case, let's let this matter be settled like this." God's will was also very decisive, and regardless of whether Haotian would object, he said directly: "Princess Qingcheng's marriage to my Hao Mansion was originally a great joy. But now it is happening.
It’s a national crisis and the people’s livelihood in Hetao is in decline, so this marriage has to be postponed for the time being. I wonder what the elders and Princess Qingcheng want?”
Xue Qingcheng just smiled: "These formal issues are not important, Miss Tianyi, you just said it."
Tianyi also nodded approvingly: "That's good. But since you are now a member of my Hao family, the title must be changed. I was the first to be engaged to my husband, so although it is vulgar, it is in the first place. The second is
Sister Lianchen, it’s Princess Yue Wan again.” Having said this, Tianyi glanced at Xin Jiao with deep meaning. Xin Jiao’s face suddenly turned red and he quickly lowered his head. Tianyi agreed and said with a smile: “This
I have wronged you, sister."
At this time, Lingxian suddenly interjected and said: "Since this matter has been settled, let's put it aside for now. The Marquis is now sitting on the ground to open a mansion and dominate the northwest. Although we on the Bloody Plateau are poor, we still have some wealth. Here.
Before, we specially prepared some dowry for Qingcheng, hoping to attract the attention of the Marquis."
"Oh, what kind of dowry is it?" Haotian asked curiously.
"Fifty thousand cavalry, the fifty thousand most elite cavalry stationed on the Bloody Plateau." Xue Qingcheng said with a smile. As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall took a breath. Fifty thousand cavalry, how huge this is.
What a masterpiece. The war horses of the Scarlet Plateau have always been the best in the world, but their cavalry is even more said to be invincible. The cavalry is purely formed by the real people of the Scarlet Plateau. As long as the command is not too cowardly, they can fight with at least twice as many people.
The Qingfeng Cavalry fought against each other. The Dragoon Legion, formed by warriors from the Bloody Plateau, has always been the most intimidating force in the empire. Even when they faced the most elite cavalry outside the Great Wall, the armored heavy cavalry of the Mandan Dynasty,
At that time, they also had the upper hand. Only with the transfer of the meritorious children of the empire and the transfer of elite soldiers, the combat effectiveness of the Dragoon Legion began to decline. However, the current Dragoon Legion still allows even the famous commander Cassimbas beyond the Great Wall to
Don't dare to underestimate it either.
There are actually only about 200,000 regular troops on the Bloody Plateau, of which 80,000 are in the Dragon Rider Corps in Tiandu Shengjing, and the rest are just guarding the western border of the empire to guard against the ambitions of the Sashan Dynasty and the Luoxue Dynasty. And Xue
Qingcheng's dowry was actually 50,000 elite cavalry, which was more than one-third of the troops left behind on the Bloody Plateau. Such a dowry was not ungenerous.
After coming back to his senses, Haotian frowned and said: "What about the defense of your Bloody Plateau? The Bloody Plateau is also full of dangers now. With your main force leaving the country, can you guarantee the safety of Qingning Road?"
"That's no problem. Ever since we started cooperating with Lord Marquis, we have set such a dowry. In order to guard against sudden dangers, all the four elders of the Bloody Plateau have come out, and we have already trained new recruits among the tribesmen. Is it possible to come?
There will be big changes. Moreover, if there is a war, the cavalry will be more advantageous in attack than in defense, so in terms of defense, the Marquis can make appropriate considerations."
All the four elders of the Bloody Plateau actually left seclusion? Luo Xiang was shocked. It seemed that the chaos in the world had spread to the martial arts world. But he didn't know whether the chaos in the martial arts world would spread to the country? He looked at Chu Xiangcheng.
At first glance, both of them had calm expressions on their faces.
Haotian, on the other hand, stood up and stomped a few steps before looking towards Bian Zhongxing.
Bian Zhongxing frowned, thought for a moment and then said: "Lord, although our current defense line is long, the terrain of the Bloody Plateau is dangerous and heavily guarded, so there shouldn't be much of a problem. Lord, please rest assured, as long as I
As long as the border is not dead, the defense line will not collapse."
Haotian shook his head, held Bian Zhongxing's one arm, and said gratefully: "Bian Shuai, you don't have to be like this. Someone naturally believes in your ability, Bian Shuai, but he just knows that it's a big deal. I don't know if you need anything else, Bian Shuai."
help?"
Bian Zhongxing obviously understood what Haotian meant. He considered it carefully before saying: "My lord's army is about to go south, but at least 150,000 soldiers must be left for his subordinates. Use the Spring Sword to reward the guards of Yumen and Anzhou."
Situ Lie responded from afar and should be able to block the attack from the east. With Li Xiao sticking to the Yinfeng Mountains, he can prevent accidents from happening. My subordinates should personally lead Wu Xiaolangjun to sit in Jiayuguan. As long as the whole line does not collapse, my subordinates are still capable.
Comeback."
"Five Young Masters?" Haotian was stunned again and pointed at the children around him and said, "Shuai Bian, are you talking about them?"
Tianyi smiled and said: "This is what I have agreed with the commander before. The five children all hope to fight on the battlefield in the future, but after all, they are still young now and are not suitable to follow your husband to the south of the Yangtze River. Therefore, I
Just let them learn from Bian Shuai for a period of time on their own initiative."
Haotian shook his head helplessly: "Okay, okay, everything you said makes sense." Turning around, he said to Xue Qingcheng: "Qingcheng, you can rest assured about what You Bian Shuai said.
Safe. I wonder what the elders want?"
Lingxian smiled slightly: "That's very good. Please allow me and Qingcheng to go out and organize their troops, but I don't know if the Marquis is willing to let Qingcheng leave now?"
Haotian was slightly embarrassed: "The elder was joking. Since the elder is busy with business, he will no longer retain that person. As for Qingcheng"
"There will be more times to get together in the future." Fu Ruoshui said with a smile, and Xue Qingcheng suddenly blushed again.
Lingxian didn't take it seriously, bowed, and pulled Xue Qingcheng out of the hall.
Walking out of the prefect's mansion, Xue Qingcheng said in confusion: "Master, didn't you ask me to protect the safety of the Marquis? Why did you let me leave again?"
Lingxian stroked Qingcheng's hair and then said: "What? Are you reluctant to leave? This was our initial thought. But now, haven't you noticed that many people around him have special skills?"
Xue Qingcheng frowned: "Are you talking about Lianchen Qiumu or Ruoshui? We are both among the top ten heroes. I am not just a disciple to boast about. Their martial arts are on par with mine."
"It's not the three of them. After all, you are still very young, and your experience and vision are still lacking. Have you noticed that letter? This person is born with supernatural power. If you fight alone, you may be able to compete with him. But if
In battlefield fighting, even two of you are not enough to kill him. Besides, Dugu Yuming, the bandit who roamed the south of Yizhou Road more than ten years ago, with the power of Song Zhengfeng, he could barely fight with him. Even as a teacher
If you take action personally, you can only defeat him but not kill him. There is also the bloody killing. This person's appearance is resolute and bloodthirsty, and his martial arts skills are unfathomable. Although I don't know where he learned such a good skill, but
His martial arts attainments must be no less than mine."
"What? He is actually more powerful than you, Master?" Xue Qingcheng said in surprise. Who is Lingxian? He is the head of the four elders of the Bloody Plateau and one of the top ten masters in China. But this person is so powerful. What exactly is he?
What's the origin?
"And that Luo Xiang, do you know his origins?"
Xue Qingcheng nodded. With the rise of Haotian, the identities of Luo Xiang and Chu Xiangcheng were also exposed. However, it was obvious that they were concerned about Haotian's own feelings. Therefore, although the imperial court was worried about it, it has never been here.
They are making a fuss about this matter. The three major aristocratic families obviously understand the abilities of these two people, and naturally they are not willing to cause trouble for themselves.
"You don't know much. It's true that he is Luo Jiuyuan, the original champion, but he is also the world-destroying master Luo Hanfeng who was rampant and was rated as the top ten masters in China. At the beginning, I didn't
I didn't find out his identity, but later he took the initiative to put pressure on me with Qi, which can be regarded as telling me clearly who he is." Lingxian sighed and said. Masters of the same level, as long as they are not always
They are all trying to cover it up carefully, and the other party must be able to sense his Qi. But for someone like Luo Xiang to be able to cover it up to such an extent, it only means that this person's skill is far better than his own.
Xue Qingcheng asked curiously: "Isn't he already dead? And why did he do this?"
"Death? Even if the traitor Yue Tengkong takes action himself, if he wants to escape, there is no way he can stop him." When Lingxian mentioned Yingwu Layman's name, he still gritted his teeth and was angry for a long time before continuing: "He is just here.
Warn us not to play any tricks. Luo Hanfeng, this person is really sinister and terrifying. Not only does he tolerate cruelty, but he is also murderous. At that time, just by his own efforts, he caused panic in the world. If he hadn't met
Qin Shang, hum, no one can say what will happen to the world."
Perhaps it was because of the memory of the past that she could not help but feel melancholy on Lingxian's face. After a long sigh, she said: "Besides Luo Xiang, there is another master in the hall. This person
His aura is looming, even compared with Luo Hanfeng, the difference is limited. But I have never been able to determine who this person is. It seems that those people who were famous in the world twenty years ago have surfaced. The world is in chaos, I'm afraid
Even the martial arts world cannot be avoided. Maybe the people in the martial arts world will become the beginning of turmoil!"
"Master." Xue Qingcheng opened her mouth and shouted.
"Master has something to do, so he has to leave first. Remember, in Haotian Mansion, you can't mess with anyone, these two old men, Luo Xiang and Chu Xiangcheng. They are the most dangerous people in the world. I once heard Yingwu say that they
It seems that they are preparing for a big event. It must be a big deal for these two people to prepare for twenty years. If you get involved, even the master may not be able to help you. These two people, even Tianji Valley, can't help you.
If you don’t want to provoke me, please remember!”
Lingxian's premonition was not wrong, but what she didn't expect was that it was not the chaos in the world that affected the people in the martial arts world, but the people in the martial arts world that contributed to the chaos. And the beginning of the chaos was in Jiangnan.
With the Jiangnan Rebellion, the entire Qingfeng Empire once again entered into precarious turmoil.
