BXBX NOVEL Chapter 519
Chapter 519
Even Senior General Xu and the others could only go back to Xie Xuanchen even though it was difficult. All of them knew that Xie Xuanchen had planned this out long ago, but even so, what could they do about it? At this point, even if Senior General Xu wanted to insist that he had nothing to do with the rebellion, no one would believe him.
In the end, Xie Xuanchen and the Generals worked together to take the Youyun Sixteen Prefectures. No matter what they thought about their partnership, in the eyes of the court and the rest of the world, the Generals and Xie Xuanchen were a party. If Senior General Xu suddenly crossed the boundaries and offended Xie Xuanchen fiercely, the royal court would not welcome them back with open arms. Now that it has gotten to this point, it would be better to just follow along with Xie Xuanchen’s plans.
After all, Xie Xuanchen was the previous Emperor’s legitimate son. Technically, could this be deemed as a rebellion? Not really, it was more of ‘reclaiming a rightful throne by birthright’.
The rebellion was strenuous and Xie Xuanchen took advantage of this energy to capture Xinzhou in one fell swoop. So far, 9 states among the Sixteen Prefectures have fallen into their hands. As long as they could recover Yunzhou and Shuozhou in the west, the Sixteen Prefectures would return to them once again.
Everyone participating in the siege was very elated about Xinzhou’s reclamation. Although they were still brandished under the name of the anti-troops, they were working hard by their own wills. Impressed with Xie Xuanchen’s tactics to deal with the Beirong army and his successful sieges, the troops were all willingly going to the ends of the world to do as he ordered.
They agreed, after all, that it wasn’t worth going to this length for the cowardly royal court in the far off distance.
That night, everyone in the anti-troops was happy as they held a celebration banquet on the spot. As the leading General, Xie Xuanchen was still dragged to the banquet. There was a dance going on and the leading female dancer was graceful and dainty. A lot of men had their eyes on her as soon as she appeared.
However, there was only Xie Xuanchen in the hearts of the beautiful lady. Throughout her entire performance in the dance room, she kept winking towards the highest seat.
Everyone knew better than to continue, so they consciously trashed the idea of getting her attention.
Xie Xuanchen, who was seated at the highest-ranking seat, suddenly came to a realisation and let out an ‘oh’.
He finally understood why Mu Mingtang was mad at him.
