The day she lastly approached Yanzhou, she heard alongside the best way that the military of the Marquis of Yan had crossed the border just a few days earlier and should have already reached the East County.

It was a transparent early summer time night when she arrived in East County. The solar was setting within the west, and the golden afterglow spilled over the boundless wilderness outdoors the town.

Within the night breeze, banners with the dragon painted on them waved above the tents of the military camp.

Xiao Qiao didn’t enter the camp instantly. As a substitute, she stopped far-off within the north of the town and requested Qiao Ci to go and search for Bi Zhi to seek out out the information.

When Qiao Ci returned at darkish, he appeared barely extra relaxed. He instructed Xiao Qiao that his father had regained management of energy and killed Ding Qu. He hopes to make clear the misunderstanding with Wei Shao, however Wei Shao doesn’t appear to simply accept it. He was apprehensive that Wei Shao would assault the town, so he introduced his troops right here to defend himself.

Fortuitously, though Wei Shao didnt need to meet the messenger, he by no means attacked the town. This standoff had been occurring for a number of days.

On the best way right here, Xiao Qiao envisioned many potentialities. Essentially the most scary situation was that Wei Shao, in a match of rage, would overrun East County and kill her father. If that occurred, Xiao Qiao couldnt think about what can be the purpose of even dashing right here like this. Fortuitously, what she feared probably the most didn’t happen. The second she discovered the information, the tensed string in her physique loosened.

After aid, she felt a pang of dizziness, and her physique swayed. Qiao Ci hurriedly held her.

Sister!

I’m high quality. Keep right here. You dont have to come back in with me.

Girl, include me. Lei Ze got here out and led Xiao Qiao inside.

On the best way, he appeared to need to say one thing however lastly mentioned nothing. He led her to the tent within the center, whispering, Marquis is inside.

When she raised her hand and lifted the tent door, Xiao Qiaos temper all of the sudden grew to become tense once more, and her actions grew to become hesitant.

Wei Shao closed his eyes and slowly turned his head. The candle flame was solid in his eyes, inflicting his pupils to glow with a chilly, nearly translucent glaze.

On my manner right here, I used to be apprehensive that you simply had already attacked the town. After I arrived within the night, I discovered that you simply hadnt. At that second, I knew it wouldnt be due to Bi Zhi. When you wished to take Yanzhou, you’ll by no means have stopped due to Bi Zhi. It’s essential to have identified there was a misunderstanding, proper?

Wei Shao didn’t say a phrase.

Xiao Qiao appeared into his eyes: Earlier than I got here, once I mentioned goodbye to Grandmother, I instructed her I wished to come back to see you, to not clear the Qiao familys identify. Common Wei Liangs dying continues to be a thriller. The soldiers who traveled with him innocently died. All the pieces is said to my Qiao household. Even when the Qiao household pays with their lives, it’s not sufficient to heal the ache of their family. It isn’t my useless phrases. After I arrived and knew you had not attacked the town, I had no different ideas however gratitude. I perceive that my familys lack of advantage and incompetence has led to many incidents over and over. I’ll ask my father handy over Yanzhou. I do know this atonement is insignificant in comparison with the fault. You might not even care about it. However the injury has been executed. My father and I’ll make up for it as a lot as possible. Even whether it is insignificant.

Wei Shaos expression remained chilly. He shook his head.

You’ve mentioned a lot, and there’s one factor proper. I’ve not but attacked Yanzhou, not due to Bi Zhi.

Are you aware why I made a decision to spare Yanzhou?

Xiao Qiao held her breath, her coronary heart all of the sudden beating sooner.

Wei Shao solid his eyes past the tent door and barked, Deliver him in!

Xiao Qiao raised her eyes and noticed a person in a grey coat being pushed in and kneeling on the bottom with a poof.

It was Zhang Pu, Qiao Yues strategist.

His face was as pale as dust, trembling.

Xiao Qiao was bowled over and shortly turned her head to take a look at Wei Shao and noticed him staring coldly at herself: This man, you must know him, proper?

Xiao Qiaos coronary heart all of the sudden pounded wildly. She confusedly checked out Wei Shao.

From the primary phrase Wei Shao mentioned to her after getting into the tent, she had sensed his abnormality. With one thing so huge had occurred, from Wei Shaos viewpoint, the Qiao household acted as if all the household had as soon as once more reneged on their dedication. However he solely instructed her to return, saying that, in return for her having given him a daughter, he would spare Yanzhou. On the time he mentioned this, he was unusually calm. However her instincts instructed her this was by no means a real expression of his feelings. The extra calm he was, the higher his anger behind it.
