The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 667: The knowledgeable Jin Banhua
Chu Liuxiang turned around and glared at Jin Banhua.

Jin Banhua turned her head and glanced at Princess Pipa.

Princess Pipa held her head high and chest out, looking very righteous.

Qiu Lingsu said quietly, "Don't underestimate a woman's jealousy. When a woman gets jealous, she can be very scary."

Jin Banhua sighed, "I just want to recover a little bit of the loss of my white jade beauty, why is it so difficult?"

Everyone laughed.

Even Chu Liuxiang, who rarely showed anger, couldn't help but lose his temper. He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The thing I regret most now is going to the capital and stealing your white jade beauty."

Princess Pipa also chuckled, "I don't care how many women you have outside, but in front of me, you can only have me."

General Qing gave Jin Banhua a thumbs up.

Hu Tiehua stared at Jin Banhua and asked, "Black Pearl is actually a woman. How could you not tell us such important news right away?"

Jin Banhua raised her eyebrows, "You guys never asked?"

Chu Liuxiang sighed, "When did you know?"

"When you and Nangong Ling left that night, Su Rongrong recognized Black Pearl's identity as soon as she woke up." Jin Banhua said.

Chu Liuxiang said helplessly, "So I'm the only one who has been kept in the dark?"

Jin Banhua raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is it a very important thing to know that Black Pearl is a woman?"

Chu Liuxiang's mouth was full of bitterness, "It's not important... It's not important at all..."

If he had known that Black Pearl was a woman, how could he be so anxious and rush into the desert without thinking?

……

But because the news corroborated each other, Chu Liuxiang finally confirmed that Jin Banhua was telling the truth, and Su Rongrong and the other two were safe, so he was relieved.

Everyone followed General Qing back to the base.

Jin Banhua suddenly asked, "How did you get here? Did the King of Kucha pay for it?"

General Qing smiled upon hearing this and said, "Young Master Jin has a keen eye. He did pay!"

Everyone looked confused when they heard this.

Princess Pipa was a little confused, "My father? What is the payment?"

General Qing looked at Princess Pipa, then at Jin Banhua, "Who is this..."

"This is the daughter of the King of Kucha," Jin Banhua introduced.

General Qing raised his eyebrows, and looked at Jin Banhua with even more admiration, and saluted towards Princess Pipa with his fists clasped.

Chu Liuxiang's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help asking, "Could it be that the King of Kucha paid you to send troops to help him restore his country?"

Princess Pipa shook her head and said, "Impossible. We fled in a hurry and didn't take much money with us. We just got the Star of Bliss that points to the treasure of our homeland, and we haven't opened the treasure yet. Where would we get the money to hire troops?"

General Qing shook his head. "Then I don't know. Anyway, the King of Kucha has already paid the money. We brothers have helped him get back the King's City of Kucha by taking money from him to help him get rid of the disaster."

"What?" Princess Pipa was surprised and asked in disbelief, "You have already taken over the city of Kucha? What about the new king, Andeshan?"

General Qing chuckled but said nothing, but his meaning was very clear.

Princess Pipa stood there in a daze. Jin Banhua embraced Princess Pipa and said with a smile, "Well, I was right, wasn't I? I said your father had a bright eye and must have a back-up plan. I didn't expect that he was playing a trick of pretending to build a plank road but secretly attacking Chencang."

Princess Pipa was a little confused and looked at Jin Banhua for help, "I still don't quite understand."

Jin Banhua smiled and said, "It's very simple. After your father was expelled from the royal city, he showed his indulgence in wine and women while placing his hopes of restoring the country on the Star of Bliss. This was to delay time and divert the attention of the traitors.

As long as the rebel king thinks that your father is not a big threat, he will only hire some Central Plains warriors to hunt down your father, and at the same time find a way to seize the Star of Bliss.

Once the traitors' attention is diverted, your father can open the treasure of his homeland without anyone noticing and hire General Qing and his men to send troops to help."

General Qing laughed and said, "That's right, your father hired five armies, but Andeshan was not alert at all and even sent out his own army, so we killed him directly in the royal city and took his head off!
We came here with Andeshan's head to meet your father, so that he can return to the city of Kucha and take over the throne again."

Princess Pipa finally understood and said in shock, "Father never told me!"

Jin Banhua smiled and said, "Isn't it normal for men not to tell women about their affairs?"

"what?"

"This secret involves your father's cause of restoring the country. The more he keeps it secret, the more suspicious others will be. Moreover, for the sake of the treasure that may be worth a huge amount of money in the Kingdom of Kucha, they dare not kill your father easily. This way, he can achieve the above two goals." Jin Banhua explained.

Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of the King of Kucha, he really has the mind of a king."

Ji Bingyan said coldly, "But for his two goals, I don't know how many people died."

Jin Banhua reminded him, "This is a war to restore the country. The number of casualties in Kucha is considered to be very small. If you look at the wars in the Central Plains throughout the ages, where nine out of ten houses were empty and bones were scattered in the wild, you will know that the battle in Kucha is almost like playing house."

Hu Tiehua patted Jin Banhua on the shoulder and said, "I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable. You are indeed a young master from the capital. You are more knowledgeable than us rough guys in the underworld!"

"That's right!" Jin Banhua put her arm around Hu Tiehua's shoulders and said with a joking smile, "The tricks used by the King of Kucha would be considered inferior if they were put in the imperial court of Beijing.

To be honest, he was already a failure when he was driven out of the royal city by Andeshan. If he had stayed in the imperial court in the capital for two months, he wouldn't have to suffer like this."

Everyone was speechless for a while, but there was finally a little admiration in their eyes when they looked at Jin Banhua.

Born into a wealthy family in Beijing, although he has a playboyish personality, he is indeed knowledgeable.

……

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from afar. It turned out to be the King of Kucha and his troops rushing over in a hurry.

Everyone rushed forward to greet them, but before they could wash off the dust, a large group of Kucha troops came after them.

The following plot is similar to the original. General Qing took out the head of the rebel king Andesan, and the Qiuci army collapsed immediately. General Min and Prime Minister Hong were captured, and Chu Liuxiang chased the fleeing Wu Juxuan into the desert.

Jin Banhua held Princess Pipa's hand and just played by the wayside the whole time.

Hu Tiehua asked in a loud voice, "Why is the old bug gone?"

Ji Bingyan frowned and said, "He chased after that Wu Juxuan. This man is quite skilled in martial arts and is also a subordinate of Shi Guanyin."

"Didn't you say that all of Shi Guanyin's disciples were dead? Why is he still chasing this guy?" Hu Tiehua asked.

Ji Bingyan said coldly, "But Shi Guanyin herself is still alive!"

At this moment, the King of Kucha came forward and greeted them with a big laugh, "The celebration banquet has been set up, heroes, come and have a drink!"

Jin Banhua was nearby. After hearing what the two said, she couldn't help but look at the convoy brought by the King of Kucha not far away, and said expectantly, "The biggest show is about to begin."
