Chapter 313: Killing spies
Xuanyuan Qing didn't care at all. Instead, he led Qingluan Huofeng and Qingluan Huofeng out of the command building with a gloomy face.
Standing in front of everyone, he shouted coldly, "You have all seen that these are the spies of the Earth and Moon Kingdom lurking in Zhongyuan City. During the chaos in Zhongyuan City last night, they were the ones who were killing the spies, so next everyone can Don’t worry, no more information will be leaked to the enemy from our side.”
"Oh my God! The Ninth Prince is really ruthless!"
"Not even sparing the spies' family members is so cruel and ruthless."
"As expected, I am worthy of being born into an imperial family. These methods are really cruel."
All the generals were whispering, and they were extremely afraid of Xuanyuan Qing.
These spies from the Earth and Moon Kingdom must not have just sneaked in, otherwise it would be impossible for so many women to be killed, and there are also many spies who have become wealthy businessmen after years of accumulation in Zhongyuan City.
As a result, there were many such spies and family members, but they were all killed by Xuanyuan Qing.
How can this not make everyone feel afraid?
Gu Chan looked at the corpses in front of her and couldn't help looking at Xuanyuan Qing and said, "Ninth Prince, you can just kill the spies, why do you want to kill their families too? I believe that the families of these spies are innocent. I'm afraid they You don’t even know about spies!”
"How can a man be benevolent to a woman? Countless soldiers died in the border battles. Previously, hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Central Plains also died in the hands of the enemy. This prince only killed hundreds of their spies. What is wrong?" Xuanyuan Qing said coldly.
"..." Gu Chan.
All right!
She admitted she couldn't argue with that.
Since ancient times, one general has achieved tens of thousands of bones. Which great figure who has been passed down through the ages did not climb up on a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?
She, Gu Chan, is not a holy mother bitch. She cannot sympathize with the families of these spies!
Xuanyuan Qing waved his hands and shouted angrily, "Listen clearly to me. Hurry up and train. The military salary will be collected and sent over today. The training will be completed in three days. After that, we will raise our troops and go out. This time we will definitely push the enemy back to the border."
"Yes, Ninth Prince." All the generals agreed in unison.
Then everyone immediately mustered up their energy and continued the arduous military training.
Xuanyuan Qing ordered the silver-armored officers and men to drag hundreds of corpses out of the camp, burn them and bury them, and then returned to the command building with Qingluan Huofeng.
Gu Chan sat back on the chair, feeling suddenly very uneasy.
Xue Lihua also whispered in her ear at this time, "Gu Chan, you must not get too close to the Ninth Prince in the future. This man is cruel and ruthless, and he is by no means an indecisive person. You must be careful."
"Sister, I'm riding a tiger now. I can't get too close to him. When I was in Kyoto, in order to save my life, I once boasted to the emperor about Haikou and wanted to help Tiancang Kingdom retake the border!" Gu Chan was helpless! said with a sigh.
"Hey! As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. From now on, it's up to you!" Xue Lihua reached out and patted Gu Chan on the shoulder.
After saying that, she calmed down and continued to supervise everyone's training with Ren Nanshan.
Gu Chan's face was stiff and she didn't say a word, and for a while she began to feel very tangled in her heart.
And that night.
The military salaries donated by the three major families in Zhongyuan City were all transported into the Zhongyuan Camp one after another.
Xue Lihua and Ren Nanshan led people to collect and count. Gu Chan did not pay attention to the military pay. She believed that after last night's suppression of hundreds of spies, the wealthy gentry in Zhongyuan City now did not dare to play tricks in front of the ruthless Ninth Prince in order to protect themselves.
So she took advantage of this opportunity and ordered the soldiers in the camp to make large Kongming lanterns, filled them with oil below, lit them and released them into the night sky.
In the corridor on the top floor of the command building.
At this time, Xuanyuan Qing and the others were standing by the fence, looking at the huge Kongming lanterns floating outside the city. Qingluan immediately spoke ill of Gu Chan, "Ninth Prince, look at this Gu Chan, he sympathizes with the spy, and even They released fire lanterns to commemorate him, and I think he is probably a spy sent by the Earth and Moon Kingdom."
"Come here, go get Gu Chan." Xuanyuan Qingyin ordered with a stern face.
A soldier standing behind responded and quickly ran downstairs to ask for Gu Chan.
After a while, Gu Chan silently came behind Xuanyuan Qing.
Xuanyuan Qing said without turning around, "Gu Chan, you are so brave! You dare to release fire lanterns to honor the enemy's spies."
"What? Flying fire lantern? Oh, it turns out that this kind of lantern is called flying fire lantern in this world!" Gu Chan said dumbfounded.
Xuanyuan Qing immediately turned back and stared at her, also stunned.
Gu Chan smiled and said, "In my hometown, these are called Kongming lanterns. They are not only used to commemorate, but also to pray for blessings. Tonight, I asked the soldiers in the camp to make 50,000 Kongming lanterns and let them fly. In addition to commemorating the dead ones, Hundreds of people are here to pray for our Tiancang Kingdom for this battle."
"Don't do this. You've wasted so much fabric and lamp oil just to do such meaningless things?" Xuanyuan Qing said angrily.
Gu Chan smiled mysteriously, "Ninth Prince, do you think the northwest wind is blowing tonight?"
"Nonsense, hasn't the northwest wind been blowing these past few nights?" Xuanyuan Qing said coldly.
"Then where is this northwest wind blowing?" Gu Chan asked with a smile.
Xuanyuan Qing looked up and looked forward. He was stunned at first, and then as if he suddenly wanted to understand something, his whole body trembled, and he stood there blankly and said in a deep voice, "Gu Chan, Gu Chan, if you don't become my prince in the future, My confidant, I will cut you into pieces, otherwise no matter who you fall into, it may kill me."
"Ninth Prince, why did you suddenly say such scary things?"
"Yes, Ninth Prince, although we hate Shopkeeper Gu, we have to admit that he is indeed a good person and he is capable. We will not go to the extent of cutting him into pieces!"
Qingluan and Huofeng Qing's faces turned pale with fright. At this time, they couldn't understand why Xuanyuan Qing would suddenly be so afraid of Gu Chan.
Gu Chan seemed very calm and not afraid. Instead, she walked to Xuanyuan Qing, leaned against the fence and said with a smile, "It's a pity that I'm not a woman, otherwise you wouldn't be so afraid of me."
"If you were a woman, the Nine Emperor Consort would definitely be you." Xuanyuan Qing said firmly.
Gu Chan chuckled, feeling an indescribable sense of pride in her heart.
It can be said that Xuanyuan Qing is definitely the most outstanding man she has ever seen since she came to this world. To be favored by such a man, as a woman, she is definitely worthy of pride.
It's a pity that she has been disguised as a man from the beginning, and as a fugitive, she does not dare to reveal her true identity easily. Now she has a large family to support, a fiancée and a concubine, and she is even more stuck. He has acquired the identity of a man.
Otherwise, she really wants to return to herself and renew her relationship with this guy, so that’s not bad!
