Chapter 1032 A Conversation Between Husband And Wife
"Since I have promised to keep him alive, I will definitely do it. But I have many ways to make his life a
living hell. The news that he was caught by us can''t be revealed. There are still many officials in the
court who work for him. I hope to take this opportunity to eradicate all the people secretly loyal to him,"
said Luo Qingyan. He looked indifferent, but there was a hint of irony in his eyes.

Yun Shang turned to look at Luo Qingyan for a while and said softly, "But Xia Houjing is very cunning.
Although we have him now, I''m always worried that he has other ns. Besides, it''s impossible for us
to know from Xia Houjing which people are working for him. Now that we are not in the Jin City, there
are many things that we can''t know in time and react quickly. "
Luo Qingyan flicked Yun Shang''s forehead and said with a sly smile, "They let their guard down just
because we are not in the Jin City."
Yun Shang rubbed her forehead and red at Luo Qingyan. She said thoughtfully, "We have to get rid
of Xia Houjing. What can not be done by such a man who can even collude with foreigners for the sake
of the throne? "
Hearing this, Luo Qingyan smiled but said nothing.
They two kept silent for a moment. Then Yun Shang asked, "Cangjue Qingsu..."
As soon as the words came out, Luo Qingyan couldn''t helpughing. Yun Shang was confused by his
wrong?"
Luo Qingyan had been lying on the bed for a long time and felt sore all over. He sat up and said with a
smile, "All right. When I came back yesterday, I knew you wanted to ask me about it. But you haven''t
asked me about it until this moment. I was a little surprised. So when I just heard you ask, I suddenly
had a feeling that I had got it atst."
Hearing this, Yun Shang reached out to pinch him, but her hand identally fell on his wound. Luo
Qingyan screamed with pain right away. Yun Shang realized it and kept on apologizing. Luo Qingyan
smiled, patted the seat beside him and said, "Come on, let me have a hug."
"What''s the matter with you?" Yun Shang murmured, but still she followed his idea, took off her shoes
andy down beside him. Luo Qingyan let Yun Shang rest on his arm. He then sighed and said softly,
"Cangjue Qingsu has escaped."
Yun Shang had already guessed this result, so she didn''t feel surprised. Luo Qingyan meditated for a
moment and said, "I have made a lot of preparations for that battle. The reinforcements were nned
to arrive in two days, but I ordered them toe day and night and to arrive in Huaiyin ahead of the
scheduled time. I also ordered the secret guards not to let anyone send messages out, in order to
avoid being noticed by Cangjue Qingsu.
During the previous fights, I found out the habits of Qingsu to send soldiers. Their shield soldiers are in
the front, followed by archers, generals, infantry and cavalry. This kind of arrangement is to prevent the
hidden forces on the Langya Mountain from attacking from behind, but it also gives us a chance. I
asked the soldiers on the mountain to catch almost all the wild beasts there and starve them for several
days. At the critical moment of the war between the two armies, I asked Zhao Yingjie to lead soldiers
from the north of the Langya Mountain to the back of the troops of Yng, and let those wild beasts out
into the forests again. "
Hearing this, Yun Shang suddenly understood why the secret guards reported that night that thest
army of the State of Yng suddenly had a mess, and the horses rushed forward crazily, disrupting
their own array. It turned out that was the reason.
"When the enemy''s array was in a mess, I personally rushed out of the city with my people. Cangjue
Qingsu ordered his troops tounch an attack, and I asked all the soldiers to shout in thenguage of
the State of Yng that Cangjue Qingsu had been assassinated and asked them to run to the Phoenix
Mountain. The troops of the State of Yng panicked and rushed to the the Phoenix Mountain.
Cangjue Qingsu had no choice but to follow them to the mountain. Then we chased and killed many of
them.
Later, the stone and the dense forests consumed a lot of soldiers of the State of Yng. Cangjue
Qingsu was attacked in all directions, and we almost caught him,"
Luo Qingyan narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "What a pity! I almost made it. I didn''t expect that while
we were encircling them, their spies in our army gathered and guarded an exit. Then they sent a secret
signal to Cangjue Qingsu. Cangjue Qingsu ran towards that ce and finally escaped. He was saved
by the reinforcements of the State of Yng. "
Luo Qingyan said indifferently, but Yun Shang knew that it was a dangerous situation. They were
outnumbered by the enemy. He had tried his best, though he had lost this rare opportunity because of
the spies in the army. It was not hard to imagine how upset Luo Qingyan was.
Yun Shang held Luo Qingyan''s hand and said with a smile, "We have about two hundred thousand
soldiers, tens of thousands fewer than the those of the state of Yng. But we have beat Cangjue
Qingsu to pieces. This lesson is enough for him to remember for a while. Moreover, the troops of the
State of Yng have suffered a great loss in this battle. They will not dare to attack us again for a
while. If your majesty want, it''s not impossible to take advantage of the victory and chase them... "
As Yun Shang spoke, she raised her eyes and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to take advantage of
the victory to pursue them?"
Luo Qingyan meditated for a moment and said with a smile, "If we take advantage of the victory and
chase after him, we can reach the State of Yng. The failure of Cangjue Qingsu is a matter of time,
but not now. The biggest problem we are facing now are the growing domestic crises, and the court
has not been cleaned up. The ministers still have some thoughts about me. The people are not united.
So, this battle can''t go on. "
Yun Shang nodded slightly. Seeing the disappointment on Luo Qingyan''s face, Yun Shangforted
him softly, "Your Majesty, don''t be disappointed. This is just the beginning. There is still a long way to
go. Now many of our inner affairs haven''t been sorted out yet. When the court is a little more stable, we
will go to the State of Yng and order Cangjue Qingsu to kneel down and apologize to your majesty. "
Luo Qingyan turned to Yun Shang, and the resentment in his eyes had disappeared. "I didn''t expect my
Empress to be an ambitious person," he teased.
Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and snorted, "Of course."
After saying that, Yun Shang kept silent again. Then, she said, "Because of this battle, Cangjue
Qingsu''s troops are seriously injured. I''m afraid he won''t dare to attack us for a while. Should we go
back to the Jin City?"
Luo Qingyan nodded slightly, "After I settle down everything in the Lingxi City, we''ll go back. The Jin
City can''t be left for too long. Or I''m afraid that everything will change when we go back."
In fact, Yun Shang didn''t want to go back to the Jin City, but she knew that she couldn''t avoid it in the
end. She smiled and said, "Then I''ll ask Pei Lan and the others to pack up."
"Thank you, mydy," Luo Qingyan hugged Yun Shang tightly and said in a hoarse voice.
"Your Majesties, General Qian wants to see you," Pei Lan''s voice came from outside. Yun Shang
frowned and sat up from Luo Qingyan''s arms. She stared at Luo Qingyan and reminded, "Your majesty
has just promised me that you will have a good rest today. You will not see anyone and will not deal
with anything."
Luo Qingyan was at a loss whether to cry or tough. He nodded and replied, "Okay, but we can''t dy
anything in the army. You can go to see him."
Yun Shang nodded, put on her shoes and stood up. She asked Pei Lan toe in tob her hair
before she went out. Qian Jun was waiting in the study, and Yun Shang walked over with Pei Lan.
"General Qian," after entering the study, Yun Shang greeted him smilingly.
Qian Jun turned around. Seeing Yun Shange in, he bowed to her and greeted, "Hail Your Majesty."
Though Qian Jun was a rigid man, he was courteous. Yun Shang smiled and sat down behind the
desk, "Please don''t be courteous. Get up, General Qian. Pei Lan, fetch a chair for General Qian. "
Pei Lan brought a chair for Qian Jun. Qian Jun expressed his gratitude and sat down. Yun Shang
nced at him and said, "His Majesty was injured and caught a cold. He had a feverst night and is
still very weak. He can''te. What can I do for you, General Qian? You can tell me. "
Qian Jun was surprised. He looked up at Yun Shang nkly. Yun Shang supposed Qian Jun had a
grudge against her. She was about to say something further when Qian Legion exined, "Your
Majesty, you misunderstood me. I came here today to see your majesty."
This time, it was Yun Shang''s turn to be surprised.
"See me?" Yun Shang blinked, not knowing what was going on.
Qian Jun nodded andughed. Then he stood up and bowed to Yun Shang, "I have offended you a lot
before. Please forgive me, your majesty."
Yun Shang didn''t remember when Qian Jun had offended her. She looked at him with confusion in her
eyes. Qian Jun exined, "Last time when I fetched something for his majesty, I witnessed people here
busy carrying the soil out of the mansion at midnight to avoid being seen by others. I heard that your
majesty wanted to dig ake in the mansion. I used to dislike you so much that I even overreached
myself to warn your majesty. "
Yun Shang couldn''t helpughing. She had already forgotten it, but Qian Jun came to apologize to her
at the time being.
"Lord Qian, you are just and responsible. It''s not your fault. Why should you apologize for it?"
Qian Jun shook his head and said seriously, "I didn''t know that your majesty was trying to deceive
others. I couldn''t imagine that your majesty was trying to dig a passage to the troops of the State of
Yng to save their former majesties, so that we wouldn''t have to think about it before we went to war."
Yun Shang wanted to tell him that it was Luo Qingyan''s idea, but Qian Jun didn''t give her the chance.
He continued, "In the battle on the Phoenix Mountain, I know that the all-sided ambush array was set
up by your majesty, and I admire you even more. You are a woman, but you are not inferior to men.
Thanks to your help, we can defeat the troops of the State of Yng so badly. I didn''t expect you to be
so proficient in arrays. I''ve always liked to study arrays. Can you give me some advice, your majesty?
"
