Chapter 667 Let those who disagree die!
The sky over the border grassland was a hazy gray, and the gyrfalcon, with its wings spread, circled beneath the leaden-gray clouds, appearing as a tiny black dot from the ground.
"Woo——"
A sharp whistle rang out across the grassland, and the gyrfalcon swooped down rapidly.
"Nathan!" The young man riding a chestnut horse caught the gyrfalcon as it fell, then turned his horse to look at the person behind him:
"Halina can't become the queen of the grasslands. She's a woman. What are you so afraid of?"
"Is it because Princess Lingrou of the Great Yu Dynasty wants to see her?"
The boy named Nathan was fair-skinned and handsome, with a taciturn and gloomy air that seemed out of place on the grasslands. The black horse beneath him was grazing with its head down, obedient and gentle.
Chaganba doesn't understand!
"Nathan!"
He called out again, urging the horse to circle around Nathan: "You are your aunt's only son, and the entire White Tiger Tribe is behind you. What are you afraid of?"
Nathan was getting a headache from his annoyance.
His cousin is great in every way—strong and brave—but he's a little slow on the uptake.
“I’m not afraid of her.” Nathan reached out to touch the gyrfalcon in Chaganbar’s hand and used his fingers to pick at the fur on its neck.
"What I fear is the person guarding the frontier."
Are you afraid of Princess Changning?
Chaganbari screamed, "She's old!"
"She hasn't won a decisive battle in thirteen years. All these years, we've been the ones winning!"
Keep winning?
Nathan sneered inwardly.
Even if you keep winning, all you get is a small piece of land that was originally taken by that person. It's barren, has no water, and is full of pebbles.
Meanwhile, the army of Dayu took advantage of the period of advancing and retiring to recuperate, and even the horses became much fatter!
"cousin."
Nathan looked at Chaganbari: "Have you forgotten what happened thirteen years ago?"
Chaganbari was stunned.
Thirteen years ago, the Western Rong launched a major invasion of Dayu but failed. He and Nasen were caught up by Princess Changning's guards. It was at that time that Nasen accidentally fell from his horse and was trampled, which resulted in his current thin and weak appearance.
The young man patted Nathan on the shoulder.
"It was my mistake thirteen years ago, but I'm not afraid anymore."
"Nathan, the entire White Tiger Tribe is waiting for you to become the new king!"
Nathan nodded to Chaganbari:
"I see."
"I will arrange everything before Halina returns!"
"That's more like it!" Chaganbar laughed heartily, raising his hand to toss the gyrfalcon into the sky.
"Go see what our little princess is doing!"
Halina lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw Chaganbari's gyrfalcon for the fourth time today.
They were already fed up with being stuck here waiting for Princess Changning by the people from Dayu!
“Sage,” she called to the maid, “it’s normal for an eagle that flies around the border all day to get shot, isn’t it?”
“Yes, Princess, it’s a pity that our Western Rong arrows can’t shoot that far.” Sari looked up at the sky and said disappointedly.
"Then try this!"
Suddenly, a longbow appeared beside him, with several mechanisms adorning the handle, pulling on thin steel wires.
Halina immediately became alert, looking at the woman who had appeared beside Saje without anyone noticing.
"You are……"
"Weren't you waiting for me?" the woman said with a smile, her ponytail fluttering behind her.
Before Halina and the other person could speak, she shoved the bow in her hand into Sage's hand and then pointed to the sky.
"Shoot it down and make soup!"
Princess Halina of the Western Rong ate her first meal in the territory of Dayu, which consisted of an eagle, a loyal follower of her brother.
“Princess, Princess!” Saje exclaimed cheerfully from the side, “That bow is so easy to draw, I wonder who made it!”
Xue Tong finished the mutton soup in the bowl and ate her first full meal since returning home.
Who could understand the pain of arriving to find oneself frozen in the wilderness behind the main tent, only to be pushed out to receive the Western Rong princess after crawling back to the camp?
Xue Tong put the bowl aside and transmitted his voice to Sui Xin:
"I suspect you have grievances against me, and I'm going to report this to your lord!"
"How could you do this, Miss Tong?" Suixin's voice sounded somewhat aggrieved: "Your soul left your body before, so there will surely be strange phenomena upon your return. You don't want the soldiers in the camp to see your tent glowing green, do you?"
Xue Tong thought about the scene and reluctantly accepted the explanation.
But she still wasn't satisfied and wanted to try making a Xiongnu head.
It's a pity that it can't be done now.
Having gleaned some information about the current state of the Great Yu Dynasty, Xue Tong learned that it was now thirteen years later. The Western Rong Chanyu was seriously ill, and his princes and princesses were engaged in a fierce battle.
Another point is that Yu Shu wanted to start border trade and negotiate peace.
She wanted to see Halina to negotiate peace.
People living on the border began secretly trading as early as seven or eight years ago.
People should not fight for the selfish interests of rulers. The people need genuine peace.
“Your Highness,” Xue Tong said, looking at Halina, “I will go back with you to the capital of Dayu this time.”
Halina was stunned.
Princess Changning never returned to the border after arriving there at the age of sixteen.
This time, we're actually going back.
“Your Highness, please do not be surprised. I know what you and your mother are asking for.”
"The war will never end."
The war between humans and demons never ends, but it's not like that here.
Thinking of this, Xue Tong felt a little emotional. Xue Lan used everything in the Heavenly Forging Hammer Illusion as a demonstration of her facing the crisis of the Demon Clan.
If I were to facilitate the peace talks... what impact would it have on Xue Lan's acting style?
She tapped Xue Lan: "You wouldn't... make peace with the demons, would you?"
Xue Lan, who was waiting for Long Siyin on the city wall of Fuyang, was suddenly startled:
"I think we should really send you the production line! Just go ahead and do your thing, I'm not stupid."
Xue Tong: I'm relieved.
"Yes, the wars are never-ending."
Halina spoke softly.
Her mother was the youngest daughter of the leader of the Canglang tribe, which was once one of the most powerful tribes on the grasslands, but gradually declined due to years of warfare and was replaced by the Baihu tribe.
The glory of yesteryear is like dew on a blade of grass, coming and going quickly. All that remains for the survivors is endless pain.
There is no point in a war that never ends.
She remembered her mother holding her hand when she left a month ago.
"Harina, the Western Rong are no match for us."
"Let those who disagree with the peace talks die!"
Let those who disagree die!
Halina stood up and bowed to Xue Tong.
"My mother, my family, and all the people on the grasslands who yearn for peace thank Your Highness."
Xue Tong nodded: "As you wish!"
The flying boats that were rotating the soldiers at Duanshui Pass arrived very quickly. Xue Lan had only been waiting on the city wall for a quarter of an hour when she saw three streaks of light flying towards them.
These are Yue Cheng and A Yue, who were rotated this time, and Long Siyin, who was called back by Xue Lan.
Ah Yue is now a powerful demon who has been in human form for many years, but when she sees Xue Lan, she still habitually transforms into her original form and jumps onto his shoulder.
Xue Lan lost her balance and leaned back, her bones snapping with a "crack".
Before Lord Wolf could speak, the red fox on her shoulder instantly transformed into human form, raising its hand to cup her face:
"Sister Lan, your bones are so sharp! I'll take you to eat something delicious."
Xue Lan: "Okay!"
