Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1046: Each one tries his best and each one is brilliant

"what?!"

Mu Xian was shocked and subconsciously turned to look at Yuwen Ye. He felt that Yuwen Ye had become gloomy.

Then, everything went dark before my eyes.

Mu Xian was stunned by the pitch-black darkness. After a moment, he realized that the candle in the tent had gone out. He hurried to the door and shouted outside, "Someone come quickly, turn on the lights!"

Soon, a soldier hurried in and replaced the candle in the candlestick.

The candle flame slowly burned and illuminated the tent again. Mu Xian turned around again and saw Yuwen Ye sitting motionless behind the table. There was no strange expression on his face. He seemed still very calm. But when he thought about how he had been so calm since he heard the news, he felt a little uneasy.

The soldier seemed to feel the suffocating pressure in the tent, so he quickly replaced the candle and left. He breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the tent, then looked down at the short piece of candle he had replaced, and muttered, "Strange, this candle hasn't burned out yet, how come it went out just now?"

He shook his head in confusion and walked away.

The other two people in the big tent still dared not breathe a word, especially the soldier who reported the news. At this time, he even regretted what he had just said. But before leaving, Shentu Tai repeatedly told him to tell the King of Qin about this matter, and also gave him some reward money. Now he understood that the heavy bag of reward money was not for his hard work of half a day's long journey.

He lowered his head and tried to make his body as small as possible so that no one would notice his presence.

At this moment, Yuwen Ye let out a deep breath.

Although it was just a breath and the sound was not loud, the tent was only this big. Plus it was very quiet outside so every little sound could be heard clearly. Mu Xian even had the illusion that he heard the low growl of a tiger before it got angry.

He said cautiously: "Your Highness..."

Yuwen Ye placed both his hands on the table, pressing them on the map, and said expressionlessly, "Did the emperor order her to go?"

The soldier shrugged and said softly, "I don't know."

Seeing that the bright firelight could not illuminate Yuwen Ye's face, and that he seemed to be emitting a dark evil spirit, the soldier thought for a moment before adding, "But, I heard from the people who came from Chang'an that it was the princess who asked for the order herself..."

The soldier was already trembling with fear. When he said the last few words, he suddenly saw Mu Xian glaring at him and immediately shut his mouth.

However, having said this, there is no need to say more.

Not to mention that they dared not breathe, the two people were suppressed by the invisible but powerful pressure in the big tent, and even their breathing and heartbeats slowed down. Just when Mu Xian thought that Yuwen Ye was about to get angry, Yuwen Ye suddenly spoke. His voice sounded very calm, but it still seemed to contain an invisible pressure: "How is the battle in Xiazhou?"

The soldier glanced at Mu Xian and said softly, "When I set out, General Shentu had already sent people to Xiazhou to inquire about the situation, but -"

In other words, the outcome is unknown.

Mu Xian's brows were twisted into a knot.

At this time, Yuwen Ye said solemnly: "I understand. Go down."

The soldier didn't dare to stay any longer, and immediately left the tent after a salute. Only Mu Xian was left standing in the tent. He looked at Yuwen Ye's gloomy face carefully, and whispered after a while: "Your Highness, do you want to send troops to Xiazhou... to investigate the situation?"

His words were naturally a test.

Sending troops cannot be just a test; and there is no need to send troops for testing.

And he knew very well that even if Yuwen Ye did not lose his temper, he was probably burning with rage in his heart - this time the Princess of Qin was indeed too... surprising. Xiazhou was the border of the Eastern Turks, and it had to ask Yuwen Yuan for help in the conflict with the Western Turks. It could be seen that the scale of the war was not small, and the war might very likely spread to the Great Sheng Dynasty. For such an important war, the Princess of Qin actually went there in person.

A woman. And she is the Princess of Qin!
Even though his past experiences had already made him aware of Shang Ruyi's extraordinary intelligence and vision, the matter was of great importance after all, and this time the Princess of Qin was indeed... too much.

I’m afraid they’ll have to send troops over there to be on the safe side.

But just when he was thinking this, he heard Yu Wenye's indifferent voice saying, "No need."

"what?"

Hearing these two words unexpectedly, Mu Xian was stunned. He couldn't believe his ears and stared at him with wide eyes. Yuwen Ye looked at him coldly and said, "I said, no need."

"Your Highness, what if, what if the princess is in danger?"

"What if? In this case, what if there is danger?"

Mu Xian had a bitter face, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. The King of Qin was indeed angry, otherwise he would not have bothered with him over such words, but even if he was angry, things still had to be done, and the safety of the princess still had to be guaranteed. This was not something that could be solved by being angry or angry.

So he bowed and said, "Your Highness also knows that this kind of thing will definitely encounter danger, so I will ask for your permission to lead a team of 100 people to Xiazhou immediately to meet the princess."

Yuwen Ye glanced at him and said, "I said, no need."

"Your Highness!"

Mu Xian took a step forward and was about to say something, but Yuwen Ye said calmly, "Do you think I'm not letting you go because I'm angry?"

Mu Xian immediately swallowed the words he was about to say.

Yuwen Ye asked again: "Do you still think that I am angry?"

"..."

After hearing this, Mu Xian felt that it was even more difficult to block than the blow that Yuwen Ye chopped down on him during normal training.

Who dares to answer?

Just as he was speechless, Yuwen Ye said coldly: "We are sending troops to attack Luoyang, not to relieve the danger of Xiazhou. Any war that has nothing to do with Luoyang has nothing to do with us, so I will not allow you to take people out."

"Your Highness—"

"Besides," Yuwen Ye slowly stood up and walked to the door of the tent. It was dark outside, like the night condensed from thick ink, which made his originally deep pupils even darker. He said, "If you lead the troops and go into battle, you must take your own responsibilities. Since she dared to speak, she must face the dangers she should face and solve the difficulties she should solve."

"..."

Hearing this, Mu Xian slowly lowered his head.

Indeed, he was a little too anxious just now, just like Yuwen Ye was too angry when he heard the news. But when he calmed down and thought, since Yuwen Yuan dared to let the Princess of Qin go, and since the Princess of Qin dared to go, then they would all bear the responsibility.

Everyone has his or her own responsibilities on his or her shoulders, and should do his or her best and live a wonderful life.

Mu Xian said: "Yes."

After saying this, he was ready to leave, but when he reached the door, he stopped and said softly, "Your Highness, are you really not worried at all?"
