”But …”
Chen Mi wanted to refuse again, but Ban Chao grabbed his hand and smiled, ”Brother, you don't have to refuse, and you don't have to thank me either. If you manage to take over the city, you will have to pay me back for your kindness.”
Yinping sighed in her heart. Ban Chao had long seen through Mubai, but he was so generous that it was no wonder Mubai was so adamant. He was also a straightforward man, so he couldn't accept favors from others. He was afraid that he would be risking his life in this battle.
Yin Ping did not want to know about the relationship between men, but she knew that Chen Mubai would not change his mind because of his wife and children. She only hoped that he would return safely from this expedition.
After a few more words of advice from Chen, Bancho and Guo led the first thirty or so people along with Prince Abdi of Shansan, who was a hostage, on their way. This trip of his lasted for two years. To his surprise, after leaving the Western Regions this time, it had become an eternal farewell with Chen Mubai. They would never meet again.
After Chen Mubai sent Ban Chao away, Yinping suggested asking Huan Yanjie if she had really left the city or if she had been killed by him.
The next day, they were about to go to war, and Chen Min didn't have much time left. He had lost his son and thought that everything was happening because of Huyan Jie, so he wanted to make use of this time to teach Huyan Jie a lesson.
The couple brought small blemishes with them and went to the stables of the inn. Seeing Huyan Jie was still resting with her eyes closed, Ban Chao even brought him some good wine and meat to eat. At this moment, only the leftover soup was placed in front of the cage.
Seeing this, Chen Mu was furious. He quickly walked to the front of the prison cart and kicked over the meat and wine, then pulled out his sword and pointed it at Huyan Jie as he yelled, ”Scoundrel, where did my son go? It's fine if you say it clearly, but later, when I lead the troops out, I'll take your dog head as a sacrifice! ”
Huyan Jie was neither fast nor slow. She raised her head and saw that Yin Ping had also arrived. She smiled and said, ”General Chen, haha. Should I call you General Chen now?”
”Cut the crap!” Chen Mubai stared at her. ”Where is Yu'er?” How did the horse die? Previously, you were unwilling to answer my question, but if you still don't give me an answer, don't blame me for being rude to you! ”
Huyan Jie's face sank, ”So what if you're being rude? Am I responsible for your son? This is still San Shan, not you, Luoyang, you kidnapped me is already a capital offense, sooner or later the king will rescue me out, hmph, that would be the day you and Ban Chao died. Be nicer to me. Maybe I will protect your family. ” As he said this, he sneaked a glance at Yin Ping. Although she appeared to be worn out from the journey, she looked even more valiant and valiant. He could not help but feel his heart skip a beat.
”You still believe that the king will save you?” Yin Ping said, ”If he was willing to save you, you would already be outside the cage. Ban Chao and Guo Qian have already left Mudcheng, but there are a thousand light cavalry men stationed there. ”
Hu Yanjie's heart sank, the fact that Ban Chao had left safely meant that they had already reached an alliance, and he had not been released yet.
As expected, Chen Mu sneered and said, ”You look confident, but you probably don't know it yet. The one who gave you the meat and wine is not King Shan Shan Shan, but Lord Ban Chao. This meat and wine is not to feed you, but to send you on your way!”
