Chapter 1685 Something is amiss here

Knowing someone was just outside, she strained her neck to turn, her eyes like autumn water, filled with pleas for Li Chen to end this torment."Your Highness, the Queen has arrived!""This palace is no...Chapter 1685 Something is Fishy Here

Yuan Shidao nodded and replied, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I have recovered."

Yelü Shenxuan was after all the prince of the Liao Kingdom, and Yuan Shidao had to give him enough face. He thus clasped his hands and said: "If Your Highness has any orders, please command."

"Don't say that."

"Ye Lu Shenxuan said with great courtesy, "It's just a small matter. The only person around me who is Chinese and has the ability to do it is my master. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't trouble my master who has just recovered."

Yuan Shidao smiled faintly, without saying anything. He knew that these were all polite words, with a thousand and one reasons, but in the end, wouldn't he still have to do the work himself

Workplace jargon, you know what I mean.

As long as he hasn't truly ascended to the realm of an immortal, remaining a "half-step" away from that state, he will inevitably be bound by earthly affairs and societal norms.

Moreover, his senior brother Wanyan Zai Dao was a genuine terrestrial immortal, one of the most powerful at that. But so what He held the official position of prime minister of the Liao Dynasty and still had to bow to the Yelu royal family of Liao.

Yelü Shenxuan took out the sealed letter and handed it to Yuan Shidao, saying: "This letter, I trouble Mr. personally make a trip, be sure to hand it over to King Daqin Ning personally."

Taking the seemingly insignificant envelope, Yuan Shidao knew that its contents held immense weight. Within that thin sheet of paper lay the key to Yelu Shenxuan's plan – a calculated maneuver designed to shake King Ning's resolve and potentially swing the entire war in their favor.

This matter is of great importance, Yuan Shidao did not dare to take it lightly. He said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will set off immediately."

"Thank you, sir."

After seeing Yuan Shidao leave, Yelü Shenxuan took a deep breath and turned around. He had already regained his composure as the crown prince of the Liao Dynasty, exuding an unparalleled aura of power and command.

Yelü Shenxuan commanded in a deep voice.

First, make sure the brothers are well-fed and take turns resting. Humans may rest but horses must not. Even if we tire out half our steeds, we must pursue Li Chen relentlessly. My Liao army must become an iron torrent in this operation, annihilating all who stand in our way.

"Full mobilization, at all costs, with the tactical objective of killing or capturing Li Chen, and the strategic objective of securing the entire Gansu-Shaanxi region. The entire army will launch an offensive!"

"The second thing!"

Yelü Shénxuán now wants to kill someone.

The one who needs to be killed isn't Li Chen, but the bastard who destroyed all the supplies that sustain my very existence.

"The scoundrels who destroyed my provisions will certainly try every means to return to the Qin territory through the Yueya Pass. Otherwise, outside the Yueya Pass, the vast expanse of white snow and a thousand miles of ice will be their tomb. Therefore, I immediately ordered the garrison of Yueya Pass to search within a radius of one hundred miles centered on the pass. In short, a troop cannot disappear out of thin air. Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we must unearth them and turn them to dust!"

Yelü Shenxuan's military order was like a decree from heaven. As the generals were about to receive it, someone suddenly spoke up: "Prince, this general has something to say."

Yelü Shénxuán looked over and saw a thousand-man commander, someone who usually went unnoticed. He nodded and said, "You speak."

The thousand-man commander clasped his hands and said, "Your Highness, the transportation routes for our grain and grass have always been top secret. To be blunt, even within this very tent, there are no more than a handful of people qualified to know this route. Yet these Qin troops found it. Isn't that strange"i Yinhu asked, “When do we strike”"The sooner the better, it must be done within three days."The saintess, seeing Li Yinhu frowning and seeming hesitant to speak, continued, “The last time we had such...
