Ling Qi shook his head, feigning a cough: "This prince's health cannot be delayed."

He really couldn't afford to delay.

He also wanted to find saltpeter as soon as possible to make gunpowder and help the general return in triumph. He didn't have time to waste with this young general.

"Your Highness, being a man, can certainly travel long distances, but this delicate young lady beside you might not be able to walk that far."

The young general's eyes flickered slightly, and he continued:

"How about this, you leave this girl here first, and I will send someone to look after her. As for your side, I will send two other people to help you find medicine. After you return with the medicine, you can go back to Qidu with this girl."

The young officer's face showed concern, not only for the women but also for the multiple hostages.

After all, he couldn't afford to offend the Fourth Prince.

Qiu Yan: "They've thought of everything quite thoroughly."

This shameless scoundrel dared to set his sights on her.

She was wondering how to say it so that the young man would let her go.

Ling Qi's face showed anger. This damned nameless nobody actually dared to be so lewd!

And, so delicate? He took a closer look at Qiu Yan. What was with this nobody's gaze?

How did he figure out that Xiaoyan was so delicate?

Xiaoyan has sharp eyes and an air of heroism; how could she be delicate?

"Can't you see that I'm not feeling well? This girl of mine is a physician!"

For the general's sake, he suddenly kicked out from the air.

The young player was accidentally kicked and fell to the ground with a thud.

He never dreamed that he would be kicked by the sickly man.

His expression immediately changed. "You..." He was in so much pain that he wanted to curse, but he swallowed the words back.

"Your Highness has excellent skills."

Looking at the Fourth Prince, he was full of energy and his movements were quick and precise; he didn't seem sick at all.

"Get out of the way!" Ling Qi said coldly, brandishing his long whip, trying to force his way through.

After all, his status as the 'Fourth Prince' was undeniable, and he refused to believe that this young general would dare to disobey his superior.

Qiu Yan turned her horse around and followed behind Ling Qi, sharing the same idea.

However, they overestimated the importance of the Fourth Prince of Northern Qi in the young general's mind.

At this moment, they were already completely surrounded by the Northern Qi army, and it was impossible for them to break through.

"Please tell me truthfully, Your Highness, what medicine are you seeking on your journey to the Western Regions?" the young general repeated the previous question.

Ling Qi always had a different opinion on the names of medicines. He turned to look at Qiu Yan.

Then I heard her say:

"Snow Lotus of Tianshan!"

Having said that, Qiu Yan spurred her horse toward the young general, and then said loudly:

"Young general, the current Fourth Prince is no longer the same Fourth Prince as before. Let me tell you a secret: the surrounding small countries have long since bowed down to our Fourth Prince."

The struggle for the throne is far from over; no one knows the outcome until the very last moment. I hope the young general will not choose the wrong side.

She originally did not want to push out the Fourth Prince.

Because nowadays, the surrounding countries are obeying Feng Qi and have formed a united front with Dong Jin.

Qiu Yan knew that Qin Feng had replaced all the generals of the various countries with his own people.

In other words, the chief generals of the various states were originally generals of the Western Qin.

With the map of Northern Qi in hand, she believed that Gu Qian must be winning one victory after another and would arrive in the capital of Qi soon.

However, if the generals of the various states were to learn that the Fourth Prince had gone to the Western Regions, it would be a contradiction.

If the Emperor of Northern Qi were to learn of this, he would certainly take precautions.

But thinking about it, Qin Feng has already gone to Northern Qi.

The news will certainly not be as fast as Qin Feng's pace, and soon the matter will be exposed.
