When she rescued Gu Linxi on the street before, Gu Qiang had already begun to feel that something was wrong. She originally thought that Qingping and Shen Siyin had only met once in Xiaoyao Building and there should not be any social interaction. , but I didn’t expect that the two of them were having a lot of fun now, and they didn’t seem like ordinary friends. The relationship between the two of them should have developed better than I imagined.
"How can I frown? She is a princess after all. I am just a commoner who only knows how to play outside all day long. How can I be worthy of her princess?" Qingping frowned after hearing Gu Qiang's words. I knew early on that there would be no possibility between the two of them, but I just couldn't let go, so I kept this ambiguous relationship with him. The relationship between the two people was neither revealed nor revealed. Being unfamiliar is probably the best thing for the two of them right now.
"That's not necessarily true. Shen Zhongbai has always loved her sister very much. If you two really like each other, Shen Zhongbai might really make some different decisions."
Gu Qiang had almost recovered all her strength. She stood up and moved her hands and feet a little. While looking at the dense pinholes on her arms, she said to the person in front of her.
"Is it possible? In this war of yours, no matter who wins, I will always be on your side. In other words, there will always be a gap between Shen Siyin and I. It's impossible..."
Gu Qiang originally just wanted to ask what was going on with the two of them, but she didn't expect that it would involve such a serious topic. Indeed, once Shen Qianshan and Shen Zhongbai all identified their identities, things would not be as they imagined. It's so simple. If a girl like Shen Siyin, who dares to love and hate, knew that Qingping was also a member of the rebellion, she would never forgive him.
Gu Qiang suddenly fell silent and didn't speak for a long time. Qingping and I broke the silence first.
"So, it's useless to think about these things now. No one can tell what will happen in the future, right?"
Qingping didn't want to continue talking about these things. He adhered to an attitude of living in the present. If he could seize the present, why not cherish it
"But what if she is sent for a kiss?"
Gu Qiang hesitated for a moment, but still said this. After all, what kind of situation was she in when she watched the sixth princess being sent away for marriage
At that time, Shen Zhongbai was not desperate and had other options, so Shen Siyin could escape. But if something like this happens again, there will no longer be any princess in the royal family. At that time , what will Shen Zhongbai do
"If this is really the case, then it probably means that there is a time in life, but there is no time in life. Don't force it. It is impossible in the first place, so why should I hope for it?"
Qingping is actually very open-minded about this matter. For him who has been homeless and wandering since he was a child, sometimes what is important may not be the result, but the process. As long as he has had it, it can probably make him I felt very happy.
"Oh well."
Regarding this matter, Gu Qiang still felt that he should not drag Qingping into the water. If possible, he might still be able to be with Shen Siyin, but now...
Shen Qianshan was actually completely unaware of what was happening in Kyoto, so after entering Leping County, he did not expect that Lou Ziqi would specially send someone to pick them up, because he had been gathering forces everywhere. There is no exact address. It is impossible for Gu Qiang to write to him and tell him what happened in Kyoto. He can only send a message to Gusu Liang in Kyoto. He is still very safe now. Other than that, Nothing can be done.
Lou Ziqi was quite happy to see Shen Qianshan, although he didn't know why Shen Qianshan came to his territory this time. However, he did follow his previous agreement and deal with Gu Linjiang. Although he failed to kill him, he was still punished as he deserved.
It was only when Shen Qianshan arrived at this place that he found out that Gu Suliang and Gu Qiang in Kyoto had already taken care of Gu Linjiang's affairs. This made him somewhat unexpected. Gu Linjiang, who had been shrewd all his life, ended up being crazy and exiled to the frontier. fate.
"So the prince had already left Kyoto before these things happened?" Lou Ziqi obviously couldn't believe it, because Lou Mingyue still stayed in Kyoto until now, so the news he could know was that Lou Mingyue What he told himself in the letter was that he was not very clear about the specific situation. At the very least, he was completely unaware of the fact that Shen Qianshan left Kyoto and was sent to fight.
"Yes, in fact, if I hadn't come to your territory, I wouldn't have known that this matter had been handled so smoothly, but it's okay. Although the final result deviated from what we expected, it can be regarded as a settlement for you. You can also let go of the big stone that has been weighing in your heart for so many years."
"Just now, did you say that the Emperor..."
To be honest, Lou Ziqi still didn't dare to believe his ears. He himself had led soldiers and fought in wars. He couldn't possibly be unclear about the concept of fighting against an enemy country with five thousand menstrual diseases. He was simply pushing this general to die. If there was really a rebellion on the border, would the emperor really make such a ridiculous decision
"You heard it right. Indeed, the emperor sent me five thousand troops. But in the final analysis, the emperor still has your trump card. After all, the current king of Leping County is Lou Mingyue. He is still in Kyoto. If once the border passes If we fall, the emperor gives you an order, will you not obey his order and send troops obediently?"
Shen Qianshan walked all the way. Although he took some detours, he still had a clear picture of the border defense. After a simple analysis, he could probably understand why Shen Zhongbai knew that there was a war at the border. After what happened, he could still calmly send himself five thousand elite soldiers to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Because no matter what, if Nan Qi wants to attack Bei'an, it must first conquer not only the border pass, but also Leping County.
After listening to Shen Qianshan's words, Lou Ziqi was obviously stunned for a moment and did not react for a moment. The tea cup in his hand also stopped in mid-air. After a while, he smiled awkwardly and said, "What the prince said. It's quite interesting, but I still don't understand. You and the team behind you are... "
Lou Ziqi picked up the tea cup, took a sip gently, and looked at Shen Qianshan sitting opposite with a smile.
"My lord, don't you understand? After all, your young master is still young... How should I put it? He may be just a child in our eyes. Shen Zhongbai then so unscrupulously allowed you to give up the position of the county prince to the young master. , maybe it is not as high-sounding as he said on the surface, but because he appreciates the talent of the young master, but to take this opportunity to detain the young master in Kyoto."
"I don't know if the prince can understand what I say like this?"
Shen Qianshan's will is clear. If he can bring Lou Ziqi to his camp, he will definitely be a winner in this war. What now depends on Lou Ziqi's attitude.
"I understand, but what the prince is saying now is baseless. How can I believe you? What you are doing is not an ordinary thing. If there is a slight mistake, it will implicate the nine tribes."
Lou Ziqi has always believed in Shen Qianshan's character, but he doesn't want to do anything too risky. After all, he can live a leisurely life now, and there is no need to take such a big risk for such a thing. .
"The prince can think about it from my perspective. I took these soldiers to the border. If I were defeated, I would definitely die without my body. In this case, Shen Zhongbai would easily get rid of me. What next? After the border pass was lost, the first thing to attack were these small towns on the border. As the king of Leping County, you have so many troops. It is impossible to turn a blind eye and watch soldiers from other countries invade our land. But in What will be the result if we send troops without permission without military symbols and orders?"
As Shen Qianshan spoke, he paid attention to the expression on the face of the person opposite him. When he saw Lou Ziqi's eyes stagnant for a moment, he continued, "When I was still the Ninth Prince, Shen Zhongbai used this method to succeed. They killed me on the border. If it weren't for my good friend who couldn't bear to see me exposed in the wilderness, I would have died on the battlefield as he wished. If the prince still has any worries, I can Let me give you an example."
Shen Qianshan couldn't think of anyone who could be more convincing than Huang Hao, "Does the prince know where the general of the country, Huang Hao, is?"
Lou Ziqi didn't understand why the person opposite suddenly changed the topic, so he simply nodded, "Of course I know this, but what does this matter have to do with him?"
"General Huang holds a large number of troops in the court, which is probably similar to that of a king. However, Shen Zhongbai sent him to provide disaster relief. While he was still on the way, he falsely accused General Huang of losing the disaster relief money and sent another group of assassins to assassinate him. This is a general who was originally focused on Shen Zhongbai, but ended up like this."
"If I hadn't happened to pass by that cliff on the way to Southern Xinjiang, General Huang might not be able to stand here now."
Shen Qianshan pointed to the person behind him, "If the prince still doesn't believe it, General Huang can tell you personally. After telling the whole story, the prince will decide whether to believe us or not."
Of course, Lou Ziqi did not expect that what Shen Qianshan said was true, but indeed, the person standing behind Shen Qianshan now was Huang Hao.
"this… "
The facts are already in front of his eyes, and it is impossible for Lou Ziqi to believe it even if he wants to, but he can no longer lie to himself about this matter.
