I wish you all a happy Dragon Boat Festival! By the way, ask for a subscription! Changfeng will continue to work hard......
Before Wen Xuan's words were finished, Lin Tian interrupted her and said, "Wait a minute, you said that Taishi Wen said in the secret letter that I would have seven days to rescue Bei Youran, otherwise she would lead an army of 200,000 to attack the Southern Yan Kingdom?" ”
Then, Lin Tian wondered, why didn't this secret letter be given to him, but to Wen Xuan? And listening to Wen Xuan's tone just now, it seems that he doesn't want to tell him the content of this secret letter.
Wen Xuan's face sank, revealing a very embarrassed look, and finally took out the secret letter from her body and handed it to Lin Tian.
Lin Tian opened the envelope and opened it, there were a few lines of handsome handwriting written on the letter, the general meaning was the same as what Wen Xuan said, Wen Zhiruo The old woman really only gave seven days to rescue Bei Youran, and as soon as the time passed, the army would attack Nanyan Kingdom.
And when he saw the last paragraph of the letter, a chill appeared in Lin Tian's eyes, because this letter was really not written to him, but to Wen Xuan, asking Wen Xuan to leave their group immediately, lest he not save Bei Youran but lost his life.
Lin Tian understood now, Taishi Wen didn't believe that he could rescue Bei Youran, and judging from the content of the letter, she didn't want Bei Youran to be rescued and continue to be the queen at all, because she hated men and didn't want any men to appear in the palace.
At the same time, Wen Taishi didn't want Lin Tian and Le Shitong to return to Xiangxiang Country again, so that all the power of Xiangxiang Country would fall into her hands alone.
After Lin Tian saw the letter, he handed it to Le Shitong again, then looked at Wen Xuan and asked, "I said Commander Wen, you show me such an important secret letter." Isn't your eldest sister going to hate you to death? ”
Wen Xuan looked serious, and said lightly: "The eldest sister and I are sisters. She wrote this secret letter to me because she wanted me to escape from the Southern Yan Kingdom and not stay with you. lest you fall into danger...... But my Wen Xuan is loyal to Her Majesty, the Empress asked me to save Queen Pei, if I don't rescue Queen Pei, I will never go back. ”
On that day, when Bei Youran was kidnapped out of the palace, Wen Xuan, as the commander of the Ouchi guards, was already guilty of dereliction of duty, and was severely reprimanded by Empress Shuixiang, she had no face to continue to stay in the palace, if she didn't rescue Bei Youran this time, she returned to Xiangxiang Country. She is not the only one who is ridiculed, it is estimated that the Wen family will be despised by everyone.
In Wen Xuan's heart, the family is much more important than the country, but this time it is different, she must complete the affairs of the country before she can save the face of the family.
So after a fierce ideological struggle, she still decided to tell Lin Tian about her eldest sister's plan.
"You can tell right from wrong, I quite appreciate you." After reading the secret letter, Le Shitong also understood the general situation clearly. looked at Wen Xuan and said, "Master Wen is going to put us to death, but this aspect will not be calculated by this kind of carving insect technique." ”
Having said that, there was a question in Le Shitong's heart, when Taishi Wen forced her to give up the position of generalissimo of soldiers and horses. He kept saying that it was for the people of Xiangxiang Country, and he wanted to stop fighting and make peace with Nanyan Country forever...... Why is she backsliding now? Are you going to attack the Southern Yan Kingdom?
And with only a mere 200,000 troops, how could they occupy the territory of the Southern Yan Kingdom? Maybe it will be taken by the Nanyan Kingdom to counterattack. At that time, Xiangxiang Guoke was about to lose money, and his wife broke his army again.
"Happiness is wise and martial, so naturally you can be safe." Wen Xuan nodded. continued: "And my eldest sister must have her own reasons for doing this. ”
"What is the reason? Is it trying to usurp the throne? Le Shitong said coldly.
"Le Xiang, why do you say that about my eldest sister? She is absolutely loyal to Xiangxiangguo and Her Majesty the Empress, and she will never do anything rebellious. Wen Xuan was so frightened that she hurriedly defended the eldest sister Wen Zhiruo, although the eldest sister's methods were very tough, and some of her behaviors were also very extreme, but she absolutely did not believe that the eldest sister would seek to usurp the throne.
"Hmph, then we'll see." Le Shitong is naturally talking nonsense, there is no direct evidence, but she just feels that Wen Zhiruo has bad intentions.
A complicated look appeared on Wen Xuan's face, but she quickly recovered, looked at Lin Tian and asked, "Lin Guogong, what should we do?" There are still a few days to go, if we don't rescue Queen Bei in time, my eldest sister will have to attack the Southern Yan Kingdom with a large army. ”
"Oh, that's right." Lin Tian nodded, with a disapproving look, and said: "We continue to carry out the rescue operation unhurriedly, no matter if it is still half a year for seven days, if Taishi Wen wants to fight Nan Yanguo, let her fight." ”
"Why is that?" Wen Xuan stared at Lin Tian with a shocked face, if there was a war on the border, the Nanyan Kingdom would definitely be on high alert, and when the time came, they would definitely send someone to strictly guard Bei Youran, so that the difficulty of rescue would increase, and if they didn't do it, their group would all be finished.
"There's no why." Lin Tian exhaled and said: "If she likes to fight, let her fight, anyway, I don't have any responsibility to defeat the war, and our task is to rescue Bei Youran, and other things don't need to be ignored." ”
Lin Tian really didn't understand why Wen Taishi was so brainless, and he actually wanted to use 200,000 troops to attack Nanyan Kingdom, which was simply too self-defeating.
Xiu Zhen Da. On the land, there are a total of five countries, and the southern Nanyan country is one of the best in terms of economic and military strength, the last time Nangong Aoxi conquered Xiangxiang Country, if it weren't for Le Shitong's superb ability to command the army, and Lin Tian's deep behind enemy lines to disrupt, this battle would have been absolutely impossible to win, I am afraid that the entire Xiangxiang Country would have been captured by Nangong Ao.
And now that Wen Taishi actually wants to take the initiative to start a war with Nanyan Kingdom, he really touches the stone with an egg, and although this old woman is very smart, Lin Tian feels that she does not have the absolute marshal ability to command the army like Le Shitong, she can really lead good soldiers to fight?
So Lin Tian didn't want to ask about the war on the border at all, anyway, there was only one result, that is, Wen Taishi would be defeated and returned, as for his rescue of Bei Youran, it would naturally be affected, but the impact was not very big, and he could still accept it.
Everyone present looked at Lin Tian inexplicably, everyone knew that this incident had a great impact on them, but Lin Tian looked disapproving, which was really surprising.
But Lin Tian had already said this, and they didn't ask why, because it had been proved many times that no matter how unexpected and outrageous what Lin Tian said, it was correct in the end. (To be continued......)
