Currently, Qian Renxue is fourteen years old.
The reason Qian Renxue and the Third Prince, Prince Xue Wu, were in the Airs Kingdom’s army was precisely because the Third Prince had heard that a Duke in the Airs Kingdom was planning a rebellion.
The Kingdom was sending a large army to suppress the rebellion.
The Third Prince became interested and proactively requested Emperor Xue Ye to let him join for some experience.
Qian Renxue’s infiltration of the Tian Dou Royal Palace was to seize Heaven Dou Imperial Power, so her primary goal was naturally to eliminate the other princes and first secure the position of Crown Prince.
Among the four princes of the Tiandou Empire, the Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe, had already been eliminated by Qian Renxue, and she had taken over and disguised herself as him.
The Second Prince, Xue Luochuan, was exceptionally intelligent, the smartest among the four princes, and had also been killed by Qian Renxue.
The Third Prince was not very intelligent, but he was a martial arts prodigy with extremely high cultivation talent.
The Fourth Prince was too young to tell anything yet.
So now, as long as Qian Renxue eliminated the Third Prince, she would essentially secure the position of Crown Prince.
This time was an excellent opportunity to eliminate the Third Prince, and Qian Renxue naturally wouldn’t miss it, so she also proactively requested Emperor Xue Ye to come along.
Glancing at the Third Prince beside her, Qian Renxue began to plot how to eliminate him.
She deliberately said, “Third Brother, if the two sides clash later, you must not charge too far forward!” “On the battlefield, swords have no eyes, and life and death are unpredictable.
Just stay by Big Brother’s side, and Big Brother will protect your safety.” She knew that the Third Prince, Prince Xue Wu, was competitive, impulsive, reckless, aggressive, warlike, and had a very strong desire to win.
Just a little provocation would easily make him compete with you.
Prince Xue Wu immediately fell for the trap and said defiantly, “Heh, I don’t need Big Brother’s protection.
Big Brother just needs to take care of himself.” “Big Brother doesn’t need to worry about me either.
It’s just an army trained by a mere Duke.
It’s hard for me to get on the battlefield once, so Big Brother should just watch from the back how Third Brother charges and kills the enemy, slaying in all directions.” Prince Xue Wu’s face was full of confidence and pride.
“Third Brother is really arrogant!
But Big Brother really loves this self-confidence of yours~” Qian Renxue smiled.
“Of course, Big Brother, I’m very brave, okay~” Prince Xue Wu hooked his thumb at the tip of his pen, looking arrogant.
“Heh, very brave?” Qian Renxue’s eyes flashed with a cold light and killing intent: “Third Brother, Third Brother, since you are so brave, then today you shall die on this battlefield!” This time, the Airs Kingdom sent out a fifty thousand strong army to suppress Ai City.
And Qian Renxue’s people had already been mixed in among them.
Once the Kingdom’s army began to attack the city and the two sides started fighting, Qian Renxue’s people could seize the opportunity in the melee to secretly act, backstab Prince Xue Wu, and kill him.
Not only could they easily kill Prince Xue Wu, but they could also push the blame for Prince Xue Wu’s death onto the Ai City Duke’s army.
Qian Renxue had already planned everything, yet the Third Prince was completely unaware of this.
At this moment, the Airs Kingdom’s General began to shout, “Listen, soldiers in the city, your Duke of Ai City, Ace, intended to rebel and has already been beheaded by the King in the Capital!” “The King will reclaim Duke Ace’s title and fiefdom, and exterminate Duke Ace’s family.
The Ai City Army is to be disbanded on the spot!” “You should quickly surrender, abandon your weapons, and leave, or perhaps be incorporated into our Airs Kingdom’s army!” “Our fifty thousand strong army will definitely flatten Duke Ace’s Mansion!
If you resist, there is only death!” “What!
Duke…
is dead?” “How is that possible?!
Duke Ace was diligent, devoted to his people, and loyal to the Kingdom, how could he rebel!” “This!
What is going on!” “Even if Duke really rebelled, so what?
Everyone knows how Duke treated us.
If it weren’t for Duke Ace, I would have starved to death on the streets long ago!” “That’s right!
If it weren’t for Duke Ace, my family would have been destroyed, and my wife and children scattered!” “Born into the Ai City Army!
Die as the Ai City Army!
We will never surrender, we will protect Duke’s family with our lives!” The vast majority of the Ai City Army had received favors from Duke Ace and were extremely loyal.
The Airs General had anticipated this situation and sneered, “Heh, I’ll give you ten seconds to consider.
After ten seconds, my fifty thousand strong army will directly enter Ai City and kill everyone who hasn’t surrendered!” This sentence caused panic among the Ai City Army soldiers.
“Our Ai City Army only has three thousand men, how can we stop fifty thousand troops!” “Surrender!
I want to surrender!!” There are always some people who fear death.
“I surrender too!” “I surrender too!” “You!
You!!” As some people surrendered, the morale of the Ai City Army gradually lost control, and more and more people wanted to abandon their weapons and surrender.
But it was also at this time.
Ivan finally arrived with the ten Generals he had summoned and two thousand soldiers.
“Who wants to surrender?
This young master will be the first to chop off their head!” Ivan rode the Red Hare, running at the very front of the two thousand strong army.
His young body and tender voice, yet carrying the Emperor’s Might, came from afar.
“Ai!
Young Master Ivan…” “Holy crap!!” “Where did this army behind Young Master Ivan come from!!” The soldiers were stunned by this sight.
“I’ll only ask once, who wants to surrender!” Ivan held the Emperor Sword and pointed at everyone.
The Emperor’s Might that came with the Emperor Sword made his aura and presence extraordinary.
The soldiers lowered their heads one after another, completely silent, their hearts actually feeling an irresistible urge to kneel and surrender, to worship.
Those who wanted to surrender all dismissed that idea.
“Since no one wants to surrender, then cheer up and follow this young master to repel the enemy!” “Yes!!” The three thousand soldiers of the Ai City Army knelt on one knee and spoke in unison.
“Everyone listen to me!” Ivan leaped off the Red Hare, then walked towards the city wall while shouting, “There must be something fishy about the death of my father, Duke Ace!” “Did my father rebel!” “Was my father framed and killed by the King!” “I!
Will find out!” “Today, this young master hereby announces that I!
Ivan will take over my father, Duke Ace’s fiefdom and become the new leader of Ai City!” “Our Ai City and the Ai City Army will break away from the Kingdom!
We will become independent!” “We will establish our own Duchy!
Named the Aiven Duchy!” “And I will be the Monarch of the Aiven Duchy!” “If you have courage!
Today, repel this Kingdom’s army, and in the future, follow me to conquer the Airs Kingdom, charge into the Capital, and chop off the King’s dog head!” “Unite the Airs Kingdom with me!!” Ivan’s voice echoed in the soldiers’ ears, word by word, so impassioned and full of lofty aspirations.
But his Emperor’s Might, spirit, and aura made the soldiers’ blood boil as they listened.
“Conquer the Airs Kingdom!
Charge into the Capital!” “Conquer the Airs Kingdom!
Charge into the Capital!” “Conquer the Airs Kingdom!
Charge into the Capital!” The morale and fighting spirit of the soldiers were completely ignited.
And after Ivan finished speaking, he had already stood on the city wall.
