Su Pingbei scratched his head and chuckled, "It's a relief, I managed to destroy the Liao army's grain stores. They must be eating chaff and gruel now."

"You win this one."

Li Chen was in high spirits and said,

Su Pingbei immediately said, “Speaking of it, we owe a lot to Zhao Tai for his help. Without him, not only would we not have completed the mission and brought back all these brothers safely, but we might have frozen to death on the grassland before even spotting the escort team.”

When it came to this, Su Pingbei was still a little shaken.

Those who have never experienced it firsthand can't possibly imagine the horror of a winter grassland.

After hearing Su Pingbei's words, Li Chen only then remembered to ask, "Where is Zhao Tailei Didn't he come"

Su Ping sighed and didn't speak, but instead looked at Guzailov who had been standing silently in the distance.

"Guzayilo, I have met with the Crown Prince of Qin." Guzayilo bowed calmly.

"Zhao Tailai has already set off with a part of his tribe to cross the Tian Shan mountains."

Guzailo didn't hide his meaning from Li Chen. Instead, he was straightforward and told Li Chen that he didn't completely trust him, choosing to put all his eggs in two different baskets.

Li Chen nodded and said, "That's understandable... Just the time of year to cross Tian Shan is quite dangerous."

Guzailo still answered calmly: "Compared to the suffering our tribe has endured for centuries, this is nothing. I believe they will surely reach their destination."

"The thirteenth son of the Jin Emperor, Huangji Tian, is also here. If you need help, you can go see him. He may be willing to lend a hand. Of course, how you negotiate and what terms you reach are up to you."

Upon hearing this news, a smile finally graced Guzailo's face. She bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Crown Prince of Qin."

At this moment, Su Pingbei leaned into Li Chen's ear and briefly recounted the events of Guza Tribe's rebellion.

Li Chen listened, but his brow furrowed slightly before quickly disappearing.

"The warriors of the Guza tribe, you've traveled far and it must have been arduous. This palace will have my people see to your accommodations and provide you with good wine and food to properly reward you. Rest well first, and when you've regained your strength and energy, we can discuss further matters."

Li Chen's arrangements were very thoughtful, Gu Zayilo had no objections, after bowing he followed Li Chen's arrangement down.

"Your Highness, the Guza tribe has brought thousands of warriors with them this time, all of whom are capable fighters. They fight bravely, each one acting as if they don't fear death, and they are fully combat-ready," Su Pingbei told Li Chen.

"This palace knows."

Li Chen smiled and said, "But now is not the time to use them. What's more, they just got here, and we haven't figured out their background. It would be risky to put them directly into the combat team. First, there's a safety hazard, and second, they really need to rest. Let's make arrangements later."

Su Pingbei was taken aback and said, "Your Highness doesn't trust them"

Shaking his head, Li Chen said, "That's not the case. If we didn't trust them, they wouldn't be here."

"However, this palace's original plan was not to have them turn against us so quickly. Keeping them with the Liao army until the very end would have been quite effective. It's just that plans often don't keep up with changes, and this palace needs to adapt some of its arrangements."tside the East Palace."After Guan Zhiwei left, Li Chen continued to handle official business.He summoned the three treasures."The other day the court allocated 400,000 taels of silver to Yangzhou for...
