On the way to escape famine, my parents divorced

Chapter 468 So, did Li Shiyue do it on purpose?

As soon as Li Shiyue finished speaking, the Xuanjia Army soldiers who were already standing solemnly behind her became even more energetic.

The sound of swords being drawn rang out in unison, and thousands of Xuanjia soldiers, clad in armor and wielding long swords, stood silently behind Li Shiyue.

Even General Liu, who always appeared calm and collected, stared wide-eyed at the sight.

Apart from the snorting of the horses, the entire arena was silent, as if a great battle was about to break out!
General Wan, the commander of the Xie family army from Youzhou, who was on the side of the Xuanjia Army, was also riding on horseback at this moment, his right hand on the hilt of his sword at his waist.

If Berg dares to cross Helu today and extend that scimitar towards Li Shiyue;

Therefore, the Youzhou army must stand together with the Xuanjia army!
Behind General Wan were countless Youzhou soldiers, and among them was Li Shiyue's uncle, Li Wangzheng.

Even at this point, though the uncle and nephew were only a few dozen feet apart, they still didn't know each other.

Although Li Wangzheng, who had been camped outside the Turkic royal court for more than half a month, had already heard that one of the two generals leading the Xuanjia Army was a female general surnamed Li.
But Li Wangzheng could never have imagined that this female general surnamed Li was Li Shiyue, her own niece.
Faced with the seemingly aggressive Berg, Li Shiyue did not draw her sword.

Instead, she smiled faintly, looked past Berg, and gazed at Sher not far away.

At this moment, I wonder if She'er has ever felt any regret?

Has he ever regretted letting the wolf into his house?
With a dark expression, She'er faced Li Shiyue, who was smiling at him. He wanted to say something, but he was unsure of what to say in this situation.

Your Highness!
Do not use a knife!

"Don't use the knife!"

Sher suddenly turned around to look at the person behind him who had said those words.

who is it?

Who would dare to say "Don't use your knife" at this time?
When Sher turned around, she saw a face that was both unexpected and not so unexpected.

The speaker was Liang Yongkang, a Han official!

Liang Yongkang carefully pulled on the reins and moved forward. With She'er's nod of agreement, the guards released Liang Yongkang so that he could come closer to She'er's side.

"Inspector Liang"

"Your Highness! It was the Grand Queen Dowager who summoned me!"
Your Highness, we must not start another war!

The royal court can no longer afford another war!
Your Highness, tell General Berg to stop immediately!
This is Li Shiyue's plan!
She deliberately provoked General Berg!

She wanted General Berg to make a move so that Anton could retaliate with their swords!
Your Highness, among the Han people, this is called—having a legitimate reason to fight!

So, did Li Shiyue do it on purpose?

Hey.

"Beggar! Come back!"

Sher shouted this in Turkic to Beg, who was only an arm's length away from Li Shiyue.

Li Shiyue watched from her horse, and her nonchalant manner was truly annoying.

Beg finally lowered his sword. Looking at the dark mass of Xuanjia soldiers behind Li Shiyue and the Youzhou army eyeing him menacingly, Beg knew in his heart that the Turks could not afford to fight now!

Seeing that Berg and He Lu had slunk away, Li Shiyue grinned and said to She'er, "So they're not fighting anymore?"

Li Shiyue didn't give She'er time to answer. Immediately afterward, her expression changed, from her relaxed and natural demeanor to a solemn one.

"Your Highness She'er, since we, Andong and Youzhou, have already done everything we agreed on when we formed an alliance with you!"
"Then, Your Highness—no, I mean, Khan—I hope you will pay the due rewards as soon as possible. We brothers have been traveling for so long, it's time for us to return home."

Having said that, Li Shiyue didn't need She'er to respond. She simply pulled on the reins, turned her horse around, and headed back towards the Xuanjia Army.

She brazenly exposed her back to Sher and the others behind her.

At that moment, all the archers on She'er's side looked at She'er.

Their expressions made it clear that as soon as Sher gave the order, they would immediately draw their bows and shoot Li Shiyue into a pincushion!
Looking at the little red horse's rump and the little red horse carrying Li Shiyue on its back, how could he not be tempted?

One arrow, as long as it hits Li Shiyue in the back, what does it matter if he is wearing armor?
The Turks had many skilled archers who could shoot through armor!
Just one arrow, even if it doesn't kill Li Shiyue, just injuring her would be enough to avenge the Turkic nobles who have died in the reports from various tribes over the past half month!

As Li Shiyue drew closer and closer to the Xuanjia Army and further and further away from their side, one of the anxious archers shouted loudly at She'er, "Your Highness!"

She'er turned her head to look at Liang Yongkang beside her, and Liang Yongkang shook his head at She'er with a sullen face.

With his hands gripping the reins tightly and his eyes bloodshot, She'er suddenly shouted at Li Shiyue's back, "Li Shiyue!" Although Li Shiyue was not startled by the shout, it did startle Xie Mingyue, who was standing behind General Wan.

Xie Mingyue took a deep breath, feeling her chest pounding, and kept her eyes fixed on Li Shiyue, who had turned his horse around and was now facing She'er face to face again.

"You killed so many of our Turkic nobles, don't you have anything to say to me?"

Upon hearing She'er's words, Li Shiyue felt that She'er was probably not a fool.

Thinking this to herself, Li Shiyue looked at She'er with an expression as if she were looking at an idiot.

Not hearing a reply from Li Shiyue and being stared at like that by her, She'er's anger intensified.

"Li Shiyue, aren't you afraid of retribution for your indiscriminate slaughter?"

Li Shiyue was genuinely stunned at this moment.

She truly never imagined that one day she would hear such words from the mouth of Sher, a Turkic prince.

"Unbridled slaughter? Retribution?"

Upon hearing these words, Li Shiyue felt that She'er's Chinese was indeed getting better and better.

It seems that She'er has truly never stopped studying Han culture these past few years.

Li Shiyue knew that a fight was not going to happen today.

But she couldn't be bothered to deal with She'er's silly questions; she had no time to play along with her act.

Therefore, Li Shiyue put away his expression and cupped his hands towards She'er: "Khan, you should send the reward that is due to us in Andong as soon as possible."

This general is tired, so I will no longer entertain the Khan's jokes.

Li Shiyue turned his horse around again and rode the little red horse into the Xuanjia Army.

Ignored by Li Shiyue, She'er could only watch helplessly as the dark mass of Xuanjia soldiers opposite him dispersed at the beckoning of General Liu and Li Shiyue, moving towards the place where they had originally encamped on the outskirts of the Turkic royal court.

As soon as the Xuanjia Army moved, the Youzhou Army followed suit.

In the end, only Sher and his group remained on that patch of grass.
