Qin Jiyan instinctively protected Gu Qiancheng behind him, glanced at the darkness in front of him, and felt reassured.
The torch was close, and with the faint light, Qin Jiyan could see the other person's appearance, as well as his strange pair of eyes, with a hint of dark red.
Wu Yuzhi laughed, quickly looked away, and said calmly: "Please forgive me, Your Highness, King Qin. We in Northern Qi worship the strong and never care whether the other party is a man or a woman. A capable woman can also have a place in our Northern Qi. I have nothing but admiration for Miss Gu." There are many women in the world, but Gu Qiancheng is not that beautiful, so he would not do anything to rob a woman.
The Northern Qi man was incompetent and was stepped on by a woman.
"King Qin, don't give me a toast or drink as a penalty. The people under my command are insignificant. If King Qin is missing arms and legs, I will not be responsible." No one can be happy when a sword is pointed at him.
"Third Prince, there is no need to explain. I know very well how high the status of women in Northern Qi is. Aren't women in charge of the government in Northern Qi now?"
"Okay, I am worthy of being the one who can make Liulang suffer. Miss Gu is indeed a strange woman." Wu Yuzhi looked at Gu Qiancheng like a hunter looking at his prey. This look made Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng frown at the same time. .
Before the next words were finished, he saw the sword in Qin Jiyan's hand suddenly thrust forward. Wu Yuzhi was on guard and instinctively retreated, but the next words were interrupted.
"Now that you know who I am, what does the third prince mean by this?" Qin Jiyan's eyes were slightly cold. Even though the other party was outnumbered, there was no trace of fear. His expression was calm, as if he could not feel the threats around him.
"You are not capable or qualified to make decisions for me." Qin Jiyan raised the corners of his lips, half-smiling, but under the candlelight, there was a faint evil aura, and Wu Yuzhi felt a chill running down his spine. , somewhat uncomfortable.
"I don't like drinking, third prince. I have written down what happened today. I will ask the emperor of your country another day. When did you, the prince of Northern Qi, become so arrogant?" Qin Jiyan deliberately mentioned the Northern Qi Empire. He wanted to test Wu Yuzhi's attitude towards the Northern Qi Emperor.
Now, the emperor is in a weak position in Northern Qi. Only by supporting the emperor can Northern Qi continue to fight.
The smile on Wu Yuzhi's face instantly disappeared, and he said forcefully: "Today, I can do it."
In the middle of the army, a man wearing battle armor and holding a sword rode forward on his horse, five steps away from Qin Jiyan. The man turned over, took off his helmet, and dismounted.
There are a thousand cavalry behind him, and the King of Qin in front of him is alone, and he also has a helper. How can he be afraid
"The eldest grandson of the Emperor of Qin, His Highness the King of Qin." Similarly, it was the first time for Wu Yuzhi to meet Qin Jiyan, but it did not prevent him from getting to know Qin Jiyan.
After roughly understanding his opponent, and seeing that he did not come out immediately, Qin Jiyan guessed what the visitor meant and said: "The visitor is a guest. Your Excellency came to our Great Qin territory in the middle of the night. Why don't you come out and see him?"
"Shua..." He raised his spear and stepped forward, hoping to capture Qin Jiyan.
With these thousand cavalry here, even if the Feng Family Army stationed there found out, they would not be able to catch up.
"Third Prince Wu Yuzhi!" Without any hesitation, Qin Jiyan called out the other person's name.
Most importantly, Northern Qi's cavalry was extremely fast. Even if they couldn't defeat them, they could still outrun this thousand-man army.
"Even that loser wants to punish me. Your Highness, King Qin, you have found the wrong person." Wu Yuzhi was very disdainful, and he himself was not a patient person. Seeing Qin Jiyan being surrounded by a large army, he was still so arrogant, and immediately He raised his hand and ordered: "If the King of Qin refuses to drink a toast, he will be fined with wine, so I won't be polite. If you do..."
Qin Jiyan had stayed in the border town for so many days, and it was impossible for Wu Yuzhi not to know about it.
Although it was their first meeting, Qin Jiyan got a rough idea of the other party's appearance from the secret guard's mouth.
"This is not your choice, King Qin." Wu Yuzhi took a step sideways, revealing a thousand cavalry behind him.
"What a handsome Qinggong, hurry up..." Before the word "chasing" could be uttered, a loud bang was heard, and the explosive package exploded among the Northern Qi cavalry, and the dazzling firelight turned the night red...
"Don't be angry, Your Highness King Qin. I just want to invite His Highness King Qin to visit Northern Qi." Wu Yuzhi's eyes fell on Gu Qiancheng past Qin Jiyan, "This must be His Highness the confidante of King Qin. I found out that Yang Liu Lang's identity, the strange woman who ruined his plan in Da Qin, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, Gu Qiancheng?"
Preliminary estimates suggest that there is only about a thousand cavalry in front of them, but the small number does not mean that they are weak. It is obvious that this thousand-man army is an elite division. If they really want to take action, the official officers from the border towns are no match for them.
At that moment, Wu Yuzhi had a violent impulse, but he quickly calmed down and said with a smile: "It seems that the King of Qin knows a lot about me, Northern Qi, so the King of Qin must be happy to be a guest in Northern Qi." .”
However, the cavalry already knew what to do, and even if Wu Yuzhi's order was not given, they continued to act as usual...
This is a joke!
"You?" Qin Jiyan took a step back and pointed the sword in his hand at Wu Yuzhi, "You are never qualified to make decisions for me. You are not able to force me to do something that I am not happy with."
"Bah squeak..." A burst of sparks flashed, and the small bag flew towards the crowd.
The Empress Dowager of the Northern Qi Dynasty listened behind the curtain and controlled the government together with the regent. This was something everyone knew. But when Qin Jiyan said it, there was an indescribable sarcasm, as if...
"Third Prince, you are rude." Qin Ji said in an implicit warning.
After all, the border town was Da Qin's territory. Even if there was a traitor to help, Northern Qi could not send too many people. Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng calmed down after their initial surprise.
"Tap tap tap..." There was a sound of horse hoofbeats, and the cavalry in front of Qin Jiyan were seen driving their horses to both sides one by one, leaving a path for one horse to walk on.
Wu Yuzhi deliberately singled out Gu Qiancheng. If Gu Qiancheng dodges again, he will only be looked down upon.
Wu Yuzhi couldn't understand what was wrong with him
"I am." Gu Qiancheng took a step sideways and walked out from behind Qin Jiyan, with no trace of fear on his calm face.
"What?" The Northern Qi cavalrymen were startled. Their instincts honed on the battlefield made them understand that this small bag was definitely dangerous, and they wanted to kick it away or avoid it. But at this moment, they saw Qin Jiyan Holding Gu Qiancheng in his arms, the long sword made a deep mark on the ground. The two of them quickly retreated and reached the city gate in the blink of an eye.
"Going to Northern Qi as a guest? I am indeed happy, but not now." He wanted to take the opportunity to benefit from Northern Qi, but he never thought about contacting Wu Yuzhi and the Empress Dowager.
But at this moment, Gu Qiancheng, who had been standing beside him and had no sense of presence except for saying a word, suddenly threw a small bag in his hand towards the torch in the hands of the Northern Qi cavalry...
