Chapter 100 The dilemma of the Northwest (1)
Lin Qing really calmed down after hearing Zhao Zimu. He looked fixedly at Zhao Zimu and said, “Three years. We agreed on three years. If you still don’t come back after three years, you have to give up everything and come back to my side.”
Otherwise, he would use every means to force her to come back and no one could stop it.
Zhao Zimu nodded at him and said, “Mm, when had I not done something I had promised you?”
When she finished saying this, Zhao Zimu suddenly remembered the last moment of her past life. Suddenly a trace of sadness surged in her heart and her face turned pale while looking at Lin Qing.
She chased from her past life to this life. She didn’t want to miss him anymore.
“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” Lin Qing asked anxiously while looking at her sudden change of face.
Zhao Zimu smiled and suddenly said to him, “Lin Qing, you seem to rarely call my name in an intimate tone. Why is that?”
Lin Qing was stumped for words and just watched her silently.
“Forget it,” Zhao Zimu said in a low voice. “Let me know on the day you want to tell me.”
Lin Qing’s palm was pinched tightly by himself, but he didn’t open his mouth to explain.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to say it. It was that he didn’t dare to say it.
Lin Qing had always felt that all of this was like flowers in a mirror and the moon reflected in the lake. He was afraid that if he touched it accidentally, everything would break like a pipe dream into pieces.
Flowers in a mirror and the moon reflected in the lake: an unrealistic rosy view.Lin Qing had everything in this life, but at the same time, he didn’t have anything. What he had, others could only wish for their entire life, but would not be able to get it. What others had, he was also unable to get it forever.
Therefore, he was cautious and vigilant while taking every step for fear that one of his own mistakes would take back everything he has now. He couldn’t do anything about that, but she must be his.
Because he was too cautious, he didn’t even dare to say her name out loud.
Looking at the silent Lin Qing, Zhao Zimu stood up and told all the soldiers, “Everyone, listen. After resting for an hour and half, immediately set off back to Great Liang!”
Everyone couldn’t help but cheer and were instantly in high spirits.
After an hour and half, everyone set off. Two days later, they arrived at a place not far from a town of Great Liang. Everyone was so excited that they couldn’t wait to immediately return to Great Liang’s camp and celebrate. This kind of emotional stirring after having escaped alive from mortal danger made them really in need to vent.
However, Zhao Zimu didn’t instantly order them to speed up. Instead, she let them stop and sent a few outstanding soldiers to go to the front to investigate.
Facing everyone’s puzzled eyes, Zhao Zimu said softly, “The Xiongnu could mount a sneak attack on you the first time, can they not do it the second time? So, if you want to keep your life and return safely to Great Liang, then, listen to me. Do not act without my orders.”
She said this especially for Zhang Xin. Everyone was surprised and nodded respectfully. There was no questioning or doubts. Zhang Xin was also no exception.
Because after more than a half month of rushing on the grassland, Zhang Xin knew clearly that he wouldn’t be wrong to listen to the person in front of him in terms of leading the battle.
In fact, Zhao Zimu worried too much. Lin Qing and Yue Yi’s group knew what she was guarding against, but now they had almost five thousand people in their hands. Under the circumstance that the other party didn’t make preparations and didn’t have an excuse, it was impossible for someone to eat up five thousand imperial soldiers. The other party would need more people than them or people with almost the same combat power as them to eliminate all of them with difficulty, not to mention doing this quietly.
The moment such a battle of this scale begins, it would alarm others. By then, the ‘Xiongnu’ would probably have to worry about their own fate after being discovered.
Therefore, as long as Zhao Zimu brought back these people intact, she was almost invincible.
Not long after, the spies returned to report to Zhao Zimu that they had found many small groups of people wandering in the nearby towns about thirty miles away of Great Liang’s border.
Zhao Zimu pondered for a moment and said, “Are they Great Liang’s soldiers?”
The spy looked at her puzzled and answered, “Yes!”
Right, Lin Qing had disappeared. Even if Chen Jin was only doing it superficially, he would send people to search for Lin Qing. If those people wanted to prevent them from going back to Great Liang now, they would’ve overestimated their capabilities.
After calling everybody, she commanded to advance forward and stopped when they reached a town at the border of Great Liang. All the soldiers of Great Liang looked at them as if they had seen a ghost. It seemed that they were very shocked to see this group of people.
Zhao Zimu and the others moved too fast that the things that she had done at the Xiongnu court had not spread to here yet. Great Liang hasn’t gotten any news yet. So, what these people felt was inconceivable also became matter of course.
After all, the people who they thought would never come back appeared now magically in front of them. How could they dare to believe it?
Almost all the five thousand people came back. Moreover, they brought Lin Qing back from the grassland after half a month. This was like a fantasy.
The gazes of those who didn’t know the truth changed when they looked at Zhang Xin. It became awed and with admiration because they naturally thought that this must be the leader of this capable troop. No one noticed that Zhang Xin’s horse faintly trailed half a step behind of a small soldier. No one cared about that now.
