How to sabotage Jing Country's cooperation with the Grassland tribes?
The suggestion from Chu State was to have Sanda's infected son return to the Grasslands and die suddenly, so that Sanda would surely resent Jing Country.
Duoti closed his eyes.
"Good, since General Duoti is willing to stay, then rest for ten days, and after that, you shall lead the Grassland warriors to spar with the elite soldiers of Jing!"
Xiao Yunzhou spoke.
"This will also provide us with some advice on cavalry."
Sanda's eyes lit up, but he soon said with regret, "Unfortunately, I must return to the Grasslands. I shall await the results of the contest in the Grasslands."
Sanda patted Duoti, "You must bring glory to our Grassland warriors."
Duoti's expression was complicated.
The King of Chu had instructed him to plot the Khan's son's demise, but if there was another way, he did not wish to go that far.
Last night, he had his strategists think of other ways to appease the King of Chu, but they could not come up with any.
But now that he was being kept in Jing Country, he had another opportunity!
Duoti touched his chest and bowed to Sanda.
The next day, Sanda departed for the Grasslands with great fanfare. On their journey back, they not only brought Jing Country's two imperial physicians but also ten deluxe sets of the 'Landlord' board game.
Xiao Yunzhou personally saw them off at Zhengyang Gate.
Five days later, Xiao Yunzhou brought the Minister of War and Duke of Dingguo to the West Mountain Camp to observe the contest between the West Mountain soldiers.
He also brought the down jackets, instant noodles, and thermos flasks that were to be awarded as prizes.
[Woo, how come I can't go and watch? Why not? I don't want to stay in the palace.]
Chu Chu was left in the palace, pouting unhappily with a sullen little face.
Concubine Liu, who had recently been granted a higher rank, looked at her son Cheng Qian with an amused expression. "For the next few days while your father is away, read your books, and spend more time playing with your sister after."
"Son understands." Cheng Qian quickly agreed, taking out a rattle drum to entertain Chu Chu.
His father really...
Well aware that his sister was at an age where everything was new and interesting, he still made the West Mountain Camp contest widely known.
This stirred up Chu Chu's desire to go out and see the excitement, only to leave her behind in the end.
"The path to West Mountain is windy and cold, and there was the recent incident with the Earth and Moon Sect from the previous dynasty. Father definitely wouldn't take sister out."
Cheng Qian consoled his sister with these words, then opened the 'Landlord' wooden box, preparing to play a round with Concubine Liu and Qiu Li.
"Sister, why don't you watch us play? See who wins, okay?" Cheng Qian teased Chu Chu, trying to divert her attention from her unhappiness.
[Ah, Landlord again, I'm so bored of it.]
Chu Chu closed her little eyes.
But she soon opened them again, eyes sparkling, and used her spiritual power to purchase a live stream of her father's journey to West Mountain.
