Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Xuanyuan Qing didn't care at all. Instead, with a gloomy face, he led Qingluan and Huofeng out of the command building.

Standing in front of everyone, he shouted coldly, "You all saw that these are the spies from the Diyue Nation lurking in Zhongyuan City. The riot in Zhongyuan City last night was caused by them killing the spies, so everyone can rest assured from now on. No information from us will be leaked to the enemy."

"Oh my god! The Ninth Prince is really cruel!"

"They even spared the spies' family members. They are too cruel."

"As expected of someone born in an imperial family, this method is truly cruel and brutal."

All the generals were whispering to each other, and they were extremely afraid of Xuanyuan Qing.

These spies from the Diyue Kingdom must have not just infiltrated, otherwise so many women would not have suffered. Moreover, many of the spies have become wealthy businessmen after years of accumulation in Zhongyuan City.

As a result, there were quite a few such spies in the family, but they were all killed by Xuanyuan Qing.

How could this not make people feel afraid?

Gu Chan looked at the corpses in front of her and couldn't help but look at Xuanyuan Qing and said, "Ninth Prince, you can just kill the spies, why do you have to kill their families as well? I believe the families of these spies are innocent. They probably don't even know about the spies!"

"How can a man be so soft-hearted as a woman? Countless soldiers died in the border battles, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Central Plains also died at the hands of the enemy. This prince only killed hundreds of their spies. What's wrong with that?" Xuanyuan Qing said coldly.

"..."Gu Chan.

Ok!

She admitted that she couldn't argue with that.

Since ancient times, a general's success is the result of thousands of bones. Which great figure who has been passed down through the ages did not climb to the top by stepping on mountains of corpses and seas of blood?

She, Gu Chan, is not a saintly bitch and cannot simply sympathize with the families of these spies!

Xuanyuan Qing waved his hand and shouted, "Listen to me carefully, hurry up and train. The military pay will be collected and sent today. The training will be completed in three days, and then we will march out. This time we must drive the enemy back to the border."

"Yes, Ninth Prince." All the generals responded in unison.

Then everyone immediately mustered up their energy and continued their arduous military training.

Xuanyuan Qing ordered the silver-armored soldiers to lead their men to drag hundreds of corpses out of the camp and burn and bury them, and then he returned to the command building with the Blue Luan and Fire Phoenix.

Gu Chan sat back in her chair, feeling suddenly very uneasy.

Xue Lihua also whispered in her ear at this time, "Gu Chan, don't get too close to the Ninth Prince in the future. He is ruthless and is definitely not a hesitant person. You must remember to be careful."

"Sister, I'm in a dilemma now. I have no choice but to get too close to him. When I was in Kyoto before, in order to save my life, I boasted to the emperor that I would help Tiancang Kingdom regain its border!" Gu Chan sighed helplessly.

"Hey! As the saying goes, serving the king is like serving a tiger. You can take care of yourself from now on!" Xue Lihua reached out and patted Gu Chan's shoulder.

After saying that, she calmed down and continued to supervise everyone's training with Ren Nanshan.

Gu Chan had a frozen face and said nothing, and for a moment she began to feel very conflicted.

And that night.

The military pay donated by the three major families in Zhongyuan City was transported into the Zhongyuan camp in truckloads.

Xue Lihua and Ren Nanshan led people to receive and count the items.

Gu Chan did not pay attention to the issue of military pay. She believed that after the elimination of hundreds of spies last night, the wealthy people in Zhongyuan City would no longer dare to play tricks in front of the ruthless Ninth Prince in order to protect themselves.

So she took this opportunity and ordered the soldiers in the camp to make large Kongming lanterns, fill them with oil, light them and release them into the night sky.

On the top floor corridor of the command building.

At this time, Xuanyuan Qing and the other two were standing by the fence, watching the huge Kongming lanterns floating out of the city. Qingluan immediately spoke ill of Gu Chan, "Ninth Prince, look at this Gu Chan, he actually sympathized with the spies and released lanterns for them to pay tribute. I think he is probably a spy sent by the Earth Moon Country."

"Someone, go and call Gu Chan to me." Xuanyuan Qing ordered with a gloomy face.

A soldier standing at the back responded and quickly ran downstairs to invite Gu Chan.

After a while, Gu Chan quietly came behind Xuanyuan Qing.

Xuanyuan Qing said without even turning his head, "Gu Chan, you are so brave! How dare you release the fire lanterns to commemorate the enemy spies."

"What? Flying Fire Lantern? Oh, so this kind of lantern is called Flying Fire Lantern in this world!" Gu Chan said dumbfounded.

Xuanyuan Qing immediately turned around and stared at her, also stunned.

Gu Chan smiled and said, "In my hometown, this is called Kongming Lantern. It is not only used for memorial services, but also for praying. Tonight, I asked the soldiers in the camp to make 50,000 Kongming Lanterns and release them. In addition to memorializing the hundreds of people who died, it is also to pray for blessings for our Tiancang Nation in this battle."

"Don't give me that. You wasted so much fabric and lamp oil just to do such a meaningless thing?" Xuanyuan Qing said unhappily.

Gu Chan smiled mysteriously, "Ninth Prince, do you think the wind blowing tonight is from the northwest?"

"Nonsense, hasn't the northwest wind been blowing these past few nights?" Xuanyuan Qing said coldly.

"Then where is the northwest wind blowing?" Gu Chan asked with a smile.

Xuanyuan Qing looked up and was stunned at first. Then, as if he suddenly understood something, his whole body trembled. He stood there in a daze and said in a deep voice, "Gu Chan, Gu Chan, if you don't become my confidant in the future, I will tear you into pieces. Otherwise, no matter who gets you, it is possible that you will kill me."

"Ninth Prince, why did you suddenly say such scary words?"

"Yes, Ninth Prince, although we hate Manager Gu, we have to admit that he is indeed a good man and has abilities. We don't need to cut him into pieces!"

Qingluan and Huofeng were so frightened that their faces turned pale in an instant. At this moment, they simply could not understand why Xuanyuan Qing suddenly became 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 faint smile, "It's a pity that I'm not a woman, otherwise you wouldn't have to be so afraid of me."

"If you were a woman, you would definitely be the Ninth Royal Concubine." Xuanyuan Qing said in a firm tone.

Gu Chan laughed and suddenly felt 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. As a woman, being favored by such a man is something she should be proud of.

It's a pity that she has been disguised as a man from the very beginning, and as a fugitive, she dared not reveal her true identity easily. Now she has a big family to support, a fiancée and a concubine, and she is even more constrained by her identity as a man.

Otherwise, she really wanted to return to her original self and continue her relationship with this guy, which would not be bad either!
