Chapter 1658

Could it be...

Suddenly, Li Chengye seemed to think of something, his pupils widened, and a monstrous wave rose in his heart.

Gao Yang smiled and patted Li Chengye on the shoulder, "I'll probably have to listen for another three or four days, seven or eight days; Commandery Governor Li has been somewhat hard-working."

Li Chengye hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, what are you saying? Listening to music is good; how could listening to music be hard work?"

"But listening to music all the time is somewhat boring. My Yanmen Commandery is close to the Hexi region, and there are quite a few women from the Western Regions. Some women can even dance with their bellies. I wonder if Lord Gao has the interest today to appreciate a dance?"

Gao Yang's eyes lit up, and he closed his folding fan, "A dance deserves a reward; this must be appreciated properly."

"If there is a chance, I will eat a Western-style meal from the Western Regions; then it won't be a wasted trip."

"Prime Minister, Western-style meals from the Western Regions often look very delicious, but they taste quite average. Prime Minister, do not hold too high expectations."

"Commandery Governor Li, what I said seems to be different from what you thought."

"Oh? So that's it!" Li Chengye looked admiring and bowed: "Prime Minister's character is noble, seeing through my dirty thoughts at a glance. What I thought was that women from the Western Regions have a strong body odor and dry skin, so if they are not princesses of small Western countries, it is better to watch from a distance with your status. I didn't expect that you didn't mean that at all."

Gao Yang: "???"

Having learned from the last lesson, this time Gao Yang was very decisive, "Commandery Governor Li, that is a fallacy; that is exactly what I meant!"

Li Chengye: "..."

"Lord Gao, please!"

"Commandery Governor Li, please!"

"..."

At the same time.

Great Qian.

Changancheng.

Imperial Palace.

Wu Zhao, wearing a black and red mysterious dragon robe, stood in front of the window, looking at the clear blue sky.

"Your Majesty, it is time for lunch."

At this time, Xiao Yuan's voice sounded.

Wu Zhao turned back and looked at the delicacies on the table, including roast venison, eight-treasure cakes, bird's nest chicken soup, and other dishes.

She waved her hand and said to Xiao Yuan,

"At this very moment, the Prime Minister is still suffering in the Hexi region, eating in the wind and sleeping in the dew, life and death unknown. How can I eat these delicacies here?"

"Except for that dish of stir-fried cabbage, take everything else away."

"Yes!"

Very soon, a large pile of dishes was taken away.

Shangguan Wan'er also said in a low mood, "There has been no news for dozens of days; I don't know how the Prime Minister is doing."

"His days must be very bitter these past few days, right?"

Wu Zhao came to the table silently, eating the stir-fried cabbage and a bowl of rice in front of her, her eyes full of worry.

At this very moment.

Chunhua Pavilion.

"Lord Gao, how are these Western Region women?"

"This belly dance is exciting!"

Imperial Palace.

Wu Zhao ate a few mouthfuls in a hurry and put down her bowl and chopsticks.

As long as there is no news from Hexi for a day, and Gao Yang's safety is not confirmed, her heart will always be worried, and she cannot eat.

"As the saying goes, good people don't live long, and scourges last for a thousand years. Is there anyone in the world worse than the Prime Minister? He will definitely be fine!"

"It's just that I heard that the Prince of Langya and the Prince of Zhenyue in the Hexi region have tens of thousands of elites under their command, which is extremely difficult to deal with. The 10,000 people I gave the Prime Minister are too few after all!"

"The results of this battle are probably difficult..."

Wu Zhao comforted Shangguan Wan'er, her phoenix eyes filled with emotion.

But it was also at this time.

Outside the hall, Li Long's voice sounded.

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, there are Black Armor soldiers holding golden tokens who have rushed into Changancheng and have already entered Zhu Que Street!"

"Golden token?"

Hearing this, Wu Zhao's eyes suddenly changed.

She became excited and suddenly ordered, "Open the Imperial Gate, clear the way!"

"Order them to come see me at the fastest speed!"

"Yes!"

Li Long clasped his fists and went down.

Rumbling!

Very soon, the Imperial City gate opened wide, and the Black Armor soldiers responsible for delivering military intelligence entered the palace and came to the Imperial Study.

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, our army has won a great victory!"

"The Prime Minister killed his way into the Hexi land from Canglan Mountain, first beheading the Canglang King, then beheading the Helan King, pushing horizontally through more than twenty Xiongnu tribes, beheading tens of thousands, and killing his way to the Xiongnu Prince of Langya's city!"

"And at midnight, he launched a surprise attack on the Prince of Langya's city with tens of thousands of men. Our army won a great victory in this battle. Except for the old, weak, women, and children, we beheaded more than 3,000 people and burned 5,000 shi of grain!"

"At the same time, we beheaded the Xiongnu Left Great Commandant Luan Ti Wutu, captured the Right Prime Minister Huyangu Du alive, and captured the Prince of Langya's wife and the Prince of Langya's son..."

Boom!

Once these words were spoken.

Wu Zhao clenched her fists, her face full of shock.

A monstrous wave rose in her heart, and she even began to tremble slightly because of her excitement.

First beheading two Xiongnu kings, then pushing horizontally through more than twenty Xiongnu tribes, killing his way to the Xiongnu Prince of Langya's city, and even capturing the Prince of Langya's wife and son alive!

It is no exaggeration to say that Great Qian has not had such a great victory in a hundred years!

Gao Yang fought this battle too beautifully!

"What were our army's casualties?"

Wu Zhao, although excited, was still relatively calm and asked.

The Black Armor soldier replied excitedly, "Your Majesty, our army's casualties are less than one-tenth!"

"What?"

"Fighting alone, yet casualties are less than one-tenth?"

"Good!"

"This Gao Yang, this battle was fought beautifully!"

Wu Zhao looked happy, not hiding her praise at all.

The massive Imperial Study echoed with Wu Zhao's voice.

"Was the Prime Minister injured, and where is he now?" Wu Zhao asked again.

"The Prime Minister was not injured, and the army has entered Yanmen Pass!"

Wu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "It's good that he's fine; it's good that he returned safely."

"After this battle, our Great Qian can truly stand up, and the Xiongnu will never dare to be as arrogant as usual!"

"At the very least, they will have to fear our Great Qian by three points!"

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes flickered, as if thinking of something, a flash of dominance in her eyes.

But not long after.

Li Long walked in again and said.

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, ten riders from Yanmen Pass have entered the Imperial City and have reached the Imperial Palace gate. They request to see Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Wu Zhao looked stunned.

"Yanmen Pass?"

"Ten riders entered the Imperial City?"

Wu Zhao scanned Li Long and asked: "Do you know why they want to see me?" ===== CHAPTER 1660 =====
