Chapter 568: ‘Betraying’
Translator: Vesper
No matter how enraged the Ling Emperor was in his heart, he could only watch as it happened. Who asked Ling Empire to be surrounded right now? Who asked the Ling Empire not to have any allies to help him?
If it was asked what the Ling Emperor regretted the most, it would be taking action against the Regent’s Residence. If it wasn’t for Nangong Yan’s disappearance which made him take action against the Regent’s Residence, he would not end up like this right now.
Qiao Tian Chang saw the Ling Emperor’s ugly expression, there was finally a little smile on his face: “If the Ling Emperor wishes to take them back, then go ahead and try.”
The Ling Emperor’s eyes darkened, he almost fainted.
He glared at Qiao Tian Chang, the Ling Emperor forcefully endured it, he gritted his teeth and said: “Let’s go......”
Seeing the Ling Emperor leaving angrily with the people from Ling Empire, Feng Shuo helplessly shook his head: “Be careful of enraging him, he might be driven into desperation.”
Qiao Tian Chang casually sat on the chair, he sneered and said: “I’ll give him thrice the guts.”
If the Ling Emperor really had such courage, he would not agree to such a sky-high compensation, although his losses would be even worse if he did not agree to it.
Feng Shuo gently shook his head: “Base on my own impression, aren’t all generals rough and burly?” Why is the person in front of him so different? Not only was he not so, he was even wise and farsighted.
Not only was this person wise and farsighted, he was well aware of what was going on, at times, he even felt he could not be compared to him.
”Thanks for the compliment,” Qiao Tian Chang curled his lips and smiled, he seemed to be very satisfied with Feng Shuo’s words.
Feng Shuo looked at Qiao Tian Chang in a speechless manner, he wanted to say that he really did not meant it as a compliment and there was no need to be that happy. But seeing Qiao Tian Chang acting that way, he finally chose to remain silent, it was best for him not to talk, it would save him from hearing that person spouting more nonsense.
Qiao Tian Chang stretched his lazy waist: “I can finally return to check on Yao Yao and Shang’er.”
”Your son?”
”Yup, you want to come along to take a look?” Qiao Tian Chang became interested when his son was brought up, in his eyes, his son was the cutest child in the world.
Feng Shuo felt bitter in his heart, he then nodded his head: “Alright.”
When Ning Meng Yao gave birth, he coincidentally had matters in hand and could not head over, but he had sent someone to deliver a gift.
Qiao Tian Chang immediately got up from his seat: “I’ll go arrange some matters.”
”I’ll come along.”
Qiao Tian Chang instructed the soldiers from Xiao Empire to bring people to accept the mines and send soldiers to be stationed there, at the same time, he asked Ling Zi You and Lei An to make arrangements for the cities they obtained, not allowing for any internal strife to happen.
But Qiao Tian Chang never expected that after they stopped the war, the wealthy children who previously caused trouble at the border seemed to be bedeviled, they would not leave the city even when they were being dragged away, they seemed to have the intention of settling down in Xiao Empire.
Qiao Tian Chang’s eyelids twitched seeing them acting that way, he did not say anything in the end, he only had someone make arrangements for them.
Ling Empire, which was dealt a blow, felt even more frustrated due to this matter. It was because those people were Ling Empire’s source of tax. At this moment, the Ling Emperor did not dare to overly increase the tax, if the commoners were forced into desperation, they would act just like those people. At that time, even if there was a Ling Empire, it would just be an empty shell, it was not what he wished to see.
Because of these people’s matters, Qiao Tian Chang stayed for a few more days at the border. After handling everything and making sure there were no slip-ups, he returned to the capital with Lin Zi You and Lei An, he passed what they obtained this time to Xiao Qi Feng.
After Lei An heard the news, he was so excited that he almost leaped in joy: “Boss, I love you so much.”
Qiao Tian Chang narrowed his eyes, he looked coldly at Lei An, he said in a disgusted manner: “My sexual orientation is normal, I’m not interested in you.”
Lei An felt down after being shot down, that was not what he meant, alright?
Qiao Tian Chang ignored him regardless of what he meant, he saw Feng Shuo who was already waiting when he walked out: “Let’s go.”
The two of them mounted their horses and headed out. After they left, Lin Zi You and Lei An also left. They were heading in different directions, but their moods were similar.
