When he heard Lin Jiuxi say this, he saw determination in her eyes.
After a pause, he sighed and said: "Since you said so, I will not force you to go back with me. Remember what you said today."
Lin Jiuxi was very happy to hear that Bai Hengqiu would no longer force him to go back, and he immediately said, "If you don't believe me, I will write a letter to you. After the matter between me and the prince is settled, you can come to me with this letter, and I will definitely help you return to Saint Medical Valley."
"That's fine. I have to give an explanation to all the previous valley masters when I go back."
The two men said goodbye to each other. Bai Qiuheng kept waiting. The rest of the soldiers set out together before saying goodbye to Lin Jiuxi. He then rode his horse alone and disappeared on the dusty road.
After he could no longer see Bai Hengqiu's back, Lin Jiuxi waved his hand and said, "Let's go."
In Yuzhou City, Nangong Jing led a large army and entered easily.
The prefect of Yuzhou City came to greet him personally. The general was very surprised along the way, but he was a smart man and did not ask about it in person.
He raised his doubts after everything was settled, but he couldn't figure it out at first. But when he saw the prefect being so respectful to Nangong Jing, he suddenly understood. "Your Majesty, you were the one who placed the prefect in Yuzhou City in advance," Nangong Jing nodded in appreciation.
"When I was planning in Liuzhou, I arranged for him to be in Yuzhou City. That's why I chose to come to Yuzhou City today."
The general was full of admiration: "Your Majesty is wise."
"Your Majesty, Li Mao has taken his army to Langzhou. We don't need to worry about that anymore."
Nangong Jing smiled coldly and said, "Of course I have to care. I know Li Mao very well. He suddenly prepared to withdraw his troops and headed straight for Langzhou, which shows that it was not his original intention. It should be the one in the capital."
Nangong Jing raised her head slightly when she said this. The general immediately understood.
But it raises another question.
"Since the prince knows Li Mao's character and has guessed that it was not him who did it, why did the prince come to Yuzhou City? Wouldn't this expose Yuzhou City?"
"I didn't want to come directly to Yuzhou City, but after thinking about it carefully, I realized that it's not too far from Yuzhou City to the capital. It may take a long time to defeat Li Mao from Langzhou, but it's enough for the emperor to prepare."
So Nangong Jing thought again and again and decided to come directly to Yuzhou City, where there is plenty of food and grass, and the soldiers can get enough rest.
"And this king is not limited to a place like Zhoucheng."
Hearing Nangong Jing's confident words, Zhang Yinyan was shocked. He didn't expect that he would hear such shocking news.
It actually came from the prince's mouth. I was immediately shocked.
"Your Highness, you still have a trump card in your hand..." Before he finished speaking, the general did not dare to say any more.
Because Nangong Jing's eyes had changed, and they were filled with strong murderous intent.
Zhang Yan reacted slowly and realized that he had said the wrong thing. There were some things he could say but some he could not say. Even if he thought about it and knew it in his heart, he could not say it out loud.
"Go down."
"yes!"
The general walked out of Nangong Jing's room and touched his forehead, only to find it was covered in cold sweat.
He took a long breath and thought to himself that it was a close call. He almost said the wrong thing. Thinking of this, he suddenly hit himself on the mouth a few times.
He muttered: "I will think twice before speaking in the future."
Lin Jiuxi led the remaining soldiers and hurried all the way, and only arrived outside the gate of Yuzhou city at midnight.
Without the token to enter the city gate, you cannot enter the city at all, so you can only stay outside the city first.
The soldiers had already gotten used to camping on the spot and had no complaints, but Lin Jiuxi was a little unhappy.
But there was no way now. Nangong Jing probably couldn't have imagined that Lin Jiuxi's speed would be so fast that he arrived outside Yuzhou City in the middle of the night. When he got the news, it was already noon the next day.
After enduring a whole night, Lin Jiuxi asked the soldiers to get ready to enter the city early in the morning, but they were stopped and not allowed to enter. The reason was simple: wearing armor would scare the people in the city.
Lin Jiuxi was already angry, and the two sides were in a stalemate. Lin Jiuxi wanted to slap the other party.
But I did hold back at the last moment.
She couldn't cause trouble for Nangong Jing at this time.
Manager Lin Jiuxi said coldly after a while: "I won't argue with you anymore. How about this? I have a golden hairpin in my hand. I'll let these three soldiers take it in. Do you think it's okay?"
The guard at the city gate recognized the three soldiers who left the city yesterday. When he saw them, he was a little surprised and asked, "You three, are you back so soon?"
The faces of these three people were not very good. They were suspected by Lin Jiuxi when they went back, and now they finally arrived in Yuzhou City, but were stopped by the guards at the city gate again.
"We are sent by the prince to pick up the princess. Let us in quickly."
The guards at the city gate looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Fortunately, there was a smart one.
Seeing that Lin Jiuxi was dressed in extraordinary clothes, he said, "Didn't the young lady just say that she had a golden hairpin? How about this? We are also following orders. There has been something going on in the city recently. You must have a handwritten order from the prefect to enter or leave the city. Since the young lady insists on going in, let us go ask the person who gave me the golden hairpin, and I will give you an answer, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiuxi nodded and agreed without making things difficult for the city gate guards.
She took off the golden hairpin and handed it to the man, "You can go find the prince or General Zhang Yan. When they see this hairpin, they will definitely come out to pick me up."
The man nodded without denying it.
He rode on a horse and galloped away.
Lin Jiuxi was no longer in a hurry, seeing that the sun was shining brightly and it was getting a bit hot.
He said, "Go find the tea seller and ask him to boil some water so that everyone can have some tea to quench their thirst."
"Yes, princess."
The soldiers were even more grateful and said, "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness!"
The soldiers outside the city, including Lin Jiuxi, each drank a bowl of tea in one gulp, feeling extremely refreshed.
Lin Jiuxi drank it in one gulp and said to himself, Nangong Jing, you have to hurry up, I'm hungry.
