After properly arranging the affairs of Rongzhai and the prison, Qin Ke selected ten strong men to escort the muskets and head to Shengjing together.
Because the journey was long, Qin Ke felt sorry for Rong Xi and wanted to use a carriage, but Rong Xi refused, so the two of them rode on horseback.
Ten strong men fell behind, all dressed as servants. The leader carried a long wooden box wrapped in cloth, making it difficult for outsiders to see what was inside.
The group traveled for a day and arrived at Ningzhou City at dusk.
After Rong Xi came to Wei, it was his first long journey. After riding a horse for a whole day, he felt a burning pain in his buttocks and the insides of his legs.
He endured the discomfort, dismounted, and followed Qin Ke into the inn.
Twelve people, six rooms in total.
The hotel is divided into two floors, with all six rooms on the second floor. Rong Xi lifted her skirt and legs expressionlessly, and felt a sharp pain again.
If I had known this would happen, I should have listened to Qin Sizhi and taken the carriage.
Just as he lowered his head and endured the pain, someone next to him suddenly chuckled, stretched out his long arm, and placed his hand on Rong Xi's waist. With a slight force, Rong Xi felt his feet leave the ground and he was lifted up the stairs.
To be honest, he's used to it.
The athletes behind him all had distorted faces from trying to hold back their laughter.
After entering the room, Rong Xi pried open Qin Ke's hands, finally stepped back on the ground, and sighed softly.
"Qin Sizhi, in front of everyone, how about you save my face?"
Qin Ke closed the door, took out a green-glazed porcelain vase, sat down beside the couch, smiled, and waved to him.
"come over."
Rong Xi keenly sensed some danger, and suddenly took a step back, staring at him warily.
"I'll apply medicine to you," Qin Ke put away his smile and said seriously, "I'll send someone to find a carriage tomorrow. You don't have to ride a horse for the time being."
Rong Xi was surprised and asked, "You knew I was injured?"
He felt that he was hiding something very deep.
Qin Ke had no choice but to stand up and approach him. He picked him up easily and carefully placed him on the couch. He poked Rong Xi's brow with his fingertips and said with a smile, "You are frowning in pain. If I can't see it, does that mean I don't care about you?"
Rong Xi turned over and sat up, hugged his knees and said, "I will apply the medicine myself."
It was really embarrassing to undress in front of Qin.
Qin Ke nodded, "I'll go find the store servant to bring some food."
The man left the room, Rong Xi hurriedly took off his trousers, lowered his head and bent his legs, and saw that the side of his leg was red and swollen, the skin was worn and bloody.
I was about to pour the medicine powder on, but then I changed my mind and decided to apply it after taking a bath.
He put his pants back on and leaned on the couch waiting for Qin Ke to return.
Soon, Qin Ke led the servant to arrive. The servant arranged the dishes and said with a warm smile, "If you need anything, please tell me."
Rong Xi immediately said, "I want to take a bath, is there any hot water?"
"When you want to take a bath, just let me know and I will prepare water for you right away." The servant replied with a smile.
Rong Xi nodded, "Thank you for your help."
The servant bowed and left.
Although the food on the table was a bit simple, it was still eatable. The two men had been traveling for a whole day and their stomachs were empty, so they ate happily.
"The medicine for the wound has not been used?"
Qin Ke glanced at the mouth of the bottle and asked.
"Wait until I finish bathing before using it." Rong Xi swallowed the food in his mouth and explained, "If I use the medicine just now and then reapply it after bathing, wouldn't that be a waste?"
Qin Ke whispered, "It's not a waste. It will hurt less after applying the medicine."
What he cared about was whether Rong Xi was in pain.
A warm current suddenly filled his heart, Rong Xi's eyes were slightly hot, and he smiled with his eyes curved: "Qin Sizhi, you are so nice."
Even his biological parents were not so attentive and considerate.
After the two men finished their meal and spent half an hour digesting the food, Qin Ke asked the servant to fetch some water.
After the hot soup was ready, Qin Ke left the room on his own. Rong Xi finished his bath neatly, sat on the bed wearing only underwear, spread his legs, and lowered his head to apply the medicine.
Just after applying the medicine and before putting on his pants, someone broke into the room with great force. Rong Xi was so frightened that he trembled and the medicine bottle rolled onto the bedding.
He turned around in shock and saw Qin Ke standing at the door, silent for a long time like a clay statue. His eyes changed from panic to peace and then to depth.
Rong Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly lifted the quilt to cover her bare legs, her cheeks flushed.
Fortunately, he was facing the door sideways, and fortunately, he was wearing boxer briefs.
But he didn't know that the two white legs alone had already aroused someone's wild thoughts.
"What happened?"
Rong Xi calmed himself down, curled up in his quilt and asked in a muffled voice.
Qin Ke finally came back to his senses. He seemed afraid to look Rong Xi in the eye. His eyes fell on the bathtub and he replied in a low voice, "I just saw Prince Shun. He is also in the hotel."
Last year, Rong's house was raided by thieves. Qin Ke has found out that they were sent by Prince Shun. This shows that Prince Shun is extremely dangerous to Rong Xi.
Now that he was staying in the same inn with Prince Shun, he couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts, fearing that Rong Xi might encounter an accident while alone in the room, so he hurriedly broke into the room.
Rong Xi suddenly understood and asked, "Did he see you?"
Qin Ke shook his head, "I guess I haven't seen it."
On the Queen Mother's birthday, Prince Shun would naturally go to Shengjing to celebrate, and happened to be traveling the same route as them.
Rong Xi breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
The room suddenly fell silent, and neither of them said a word.
After a while, Qin Ke got up, opened the door, and called the servant to change the water.
Rong Xi secretly put on his underwear under the quilt. After the servant changed the water, he stood up, put on his coat, and whispered, "I'll go out first."
"No need," Qin Ke said to stop her, "I'm worried about you going out alone."
Prince Shun is now staying in the hotel, so it is indeed dangerous to go out.
"I don't mind. If you don't like it, just turn your back." Qin Ke said with a calm expression and began to untie his belt.
Rong Xi hurriedly hid in the bed and lay on his side with his back turned.
The rustling sound of someone taking off clothes behind him made Rong Xi feel as if he had been pawed by a cat, itchy and numb at the same time.
As the God of War of the Wei Dynasty, Qin Ke must have a perfect figure. He has sketched it in his mind more than once, but how can imagination compare to reality?
Or, just take a look?
He turned his head quietly and looked in the direction of the sound, but suddenly stumbled into a deep pool.
Looking down, he saw that his clothes were neatly worn, without any part of him being taken off!
"Lanzhi, is there something wrong?" Qin Ke asked, pretending to be innocent.
When Rong Xi heard this, his face suddenly turned red. He felt that he had to save face, so he pretended to be calm, turned over and sat up, his eyes falling on Qin Ke's belt.
"Qin Sizhi, the water is getting cold."
Qin Ke was not in a hurry at all. Under Rong Xi's gaze, he undid his belt and replied, "It's hot and stuffy in the room. A cool bath is just right."
Even undressing is very charming.
Rong Xi secretly praised him. He always showed strength when facing a strong opponent. He suddenly stood up from the bed, walked to Qin Ke, stretched out his hand to hook his belt, and said provocatively: "How about I help you undress?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Ke spread his arms, lowered his eyes and saw a flash of panic on Rong Xi's face, and the smile in his eyes became even wider.
"Thank you, Lanzhi."
Rong Xi gritted his teeth and took off Qin Ke's coat expressionlessly.
War God Qin is tall, and although he is a martial artist, he does not have muscular build. After taking off his outer clothes, the muscles on his arms and chest are slightly visible, and one can imagine that his lines must be very beautiful.
Everyone has a love for beauty, but Rong Xi has not yet escaped from the mundane world, so she can't help but feel shaken.
He gently pinched Qin Ke's upper arm through his clothes and praised sincerely, "That's great."
The ambiguity was suddenly broken. Qin Ke was helpless. He stroked Rong Xi's loose black hair and said with a smile, "Wait on the couch. I'll be ready soon."
Rong Xi paused slightly, his words seemed to have deep meaning, but Qin's expression was serious, without the slightest hint of teasing.
He obediently turned back to his couch, and heard the sound of water splashing behind him. He thought he would be distracted, but he felt inexplicably peaceful.
After a while, the sound of water stopped and the sound of footsteps approached. Rong Xi turned around and looked.
Qin Ke was wearing undergarments with his chest slightly open. He leaned over and his inner muscles were clearly visible.
He stared at her intently. Qin Ke thought he was very cute. He leaned over and asked, "Aren't you sleepy?"
The man had just finished bathing, and under the candlelight, he looked even more handsome.
Rong Xi, for some unknown reason, pressed his palm on his chest, using a little force.
The skin was suddenly touched, and the coolness gradually faded away, turning into a rampant heat. Qin Ke's eyes darkened slightly, and he quickly held the boy's hand in his palm and said, "Don't make trouble."
The man's palms were burning hot, and passion was growing.
Rong Xi had been bold before, but now he didn't know what shyness was. He shook hands with her, his eyebrows curved and his smile very beautiful.
It's really life-threatening.
Qin Ke let out a long sigh, stretched out his arms and took Rong Xi into his arms, "Go to sleep."
The two were very close to each other, Rong Xi's breathing was light and shallow, and the breath sprayed on Qin Ke's chest. Qin Ke reached out to the back of his head and pressed it neatly.
With his cheek pressed against his chest, Rong Xi felt a little stuffy, but was reluctant to leave.
The two of them fell asleep in each other's arms and did not wake up until the next morning at dawn.
The servant brought breakfast in due time, and the two men finished it quickly and met up with ten strong men outside the inn.
In addition to the athletes, there was also a carriage.
It was obviously prepared for Rong Xi.
Rong Xi did not refuse, as he did not want the skin on his legs to be rubbed off again.
After another half a day's journey, Rong Xi sat for several hours, feeling dizzy and uncomfortable due to the shaking. The car was hot and stuffy, and he felt very uncomfortable.
Qin Ke ordered to stop and take a rest.
The athletes sat neatly on the grass and drank water from water bags.
Qin Ke led Rong Xi to a distance, unscrewed the water bag, and said, "Add honey."
Honey is a rare commodity, but Rong Xi has always loved it. When Qin Ke found out about it, he bought it at a high price.
The water was as sweet as spring water, and it was sweet to Rong Xi's heart. However, considering that Qin Ke didn't like sweet things, he asked, "What do you want to drink?"
Qin Ke took out another water bag and drank two gulps.
After resting for a while, they were about to set off when they heard the sound of horse hooves not far away.
Qin Ke looked slightly solemn. He faced the direction of the horse hoof sounds and calmly blocked Rong Xi behind him.
A group of people came riding horses, the leader was tall and strong with a rough face.
He didn't pay attention to the passers-by on the roadside and just glanced at them casually. Before his brain could react, his arms had already grasped the reins and ordered the horse to stop.
He stopped suddenly, and the rest of his attendants also stopped.
"Qin Ke?"
The man laughed loudly, jumped off his horse for unknown reasons, waved the sword in his hand, and stood in front of Qin Ke.
"Let's fight, do you dare?"
Everyone: “…”
Qin Ke looked indifferent and bowed slightly, "If Your Highness Prince Shun wants to compete, how about after we return to the capital?"
The implication is that we are in a hurry now and have no time to relax.
Prince Shun held his sword to the ground and snorted, "No, we haven't had a duel for many years. Everyone in the world praises you as the God of War of Wei. I just happened to see you today, so we must have a duel!"
He is a warlike person, and the only opponent he considers worthy of his attention is Qin Ke.
Prince Shun was quite arrogant and domineering. Even if Qin Ke did not respond, he would still attack with his sword.
Qin Ke knew that he could not refuse, so he ordered his generals to protect Rong Xi Liyuan.
The sword was unsheathed, revealing its cold edge.
Prince Shun praised loudly and raised his sword to chop. Qin Ke faced the challenge head on without fear.
Both of them were proficient in swordsmanship and had superb skills. After several rounds, it was difficult to tell who was the winner.
Rong Xi was watching from the side and felt terrified. The sound of the blades colliding kept ringing in his ears, and his palms were covered in cold sweat.
I didn't expect Prince Shun to be like this.
In the book, Prince Shun later rebelled and was suppressed by Liang Siwen's troops. He then died by drinking poison.
Before this, he thought that Prince Shun should be a deep and cunning person, but this meeting was unexpected.
Prince Shun can be a powerful general of the Wei Dynasty.
To be honest, if Liang Siwen hadn't been the protagonist, he might not have been able to defeat Prince Shun.
There is no need to elaborate on Qin Ke's high martial arts skills. Now that Prince Shun is fighting against him, he is not inferior in momentum at all. Liang Siwen really had the advantage of time, place and people to defeat Prince Shun.
The two men swung their swords, raising a cloud of dust.
After a long time, Prince Shun lost his strength and his long sword was thrown to the ground by Qin Ke, and the battle ended.
Prince Shun was not at all ashamed or annoyed, he just felt very happy and laughed loudly, "As expected of Qin Sizhi!"
After saying this, he picked up his knife and mounted his horse, inviting him sincerely: "We met on the road, it's quite a coincidence, why don't we travel together?"
Qin Ke still looked indifferent, "Your Highness, you don't know that the carriage is slow and not as fast as your Highness's."
Prince Shun looked around and saw a carriage parked on the side of the road. He couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Why are you riding in a carriage?"
After he asked this question, his sharp eyes suddenly met Rong Xi's.
Rong Xi had no choice but to step forward and bow, saying, "My name is Rong Xi, and I am honored to meet His Royal Highness Prince Shun."
"Rong Xi?" Prince Shun frowned and thought carefully, then suddenly realized, "So you are Rong Dalang!"
He looked Rong Xi up and down, marveling at him.
"I heard that Rong Dalang was as fat as a pig, but now that I see him, he is clearly just a bamboo pole!"
Prince Shun spoke without restraint.
Qin Ke's face darkened slightly, and he said, "If Your Highness doesn't leave, I'm afraid it will delay the Queen Mother's birthday."
"Well, I'll spar with you again after we get to Shengjing!"
After saying this, he was about to ride away.
Suddenly, someone raised his voice and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. The prince is not in a hurry even when he is riding in the carriage, which shows that he will not delay the journey."
Rong Xi looked up and met the man's eyes.
The man was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with a fair complexion and cold eyes. Even under the scorching sun, he made people feel chilled.
Prince Shun thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Then let's go together."
He was determined not to change his mind, and Qin Ke had no choice but to lead Rong Xi into the carriage and accompany him on horseback.
The group drove slowly towards Shengjing.
On the way, Prince Shun became impatient several times and always rode his horse for a few miles before stopping to wait for Rong Xi and his party.
"Qin Sizhi," Rong Xi asked as he lifted the carriage curtain and saw Prince Shun running away again, "I see that Prince Shun is not the type to attack from the dark."
The last time Rong's house was attacked, Qin Ke traced the attack back to Prince Shun. Therefore, Rong Xi had a bad impression of Prince Shun.
However, after spending a few days with him, he felt that Prince Shun was a rough and rude person, not a ruthless person.
However, the retainer beside him was quite strange.
Qin Ke also felt something, and nodded when he heard it, saying, "Prince Shun always likes fighting, but his fiefdom Jizhou has good weather and good harvests, so he has no war to fight, so he is really frustrated."
He wanted to fight, but the emperor was afraid of him and ordered him to defend his fiefdom and not move, which really made him feel suffocated.
Rong Xi couldn't help but wonder, would Prince Shun rebel in the future just to vent his anger by fighting a war?
If this is true, it would be better to release its nature and avoid future suffering.
It is better to unblock than to block.
After traveling for about half a month, Rong Xi finally arrived in Shengjing.
The imperial city stands tall, and after years of sedimentation, it becomes more glorious and profound. The soldiers at the city gate were solemn and dignified, with their long spears pointed at the ground, which made people feel awe-inspiring.
With Prince Shun present, the carriages and horses entered the city smoothly.
Prince Shun went straight into the palace, while Qin Ke took Rong Xi and went straight to the Prince's Mansion.
Neither of them mentioned the Rong Mansion, as if the Rong Mansion did not exist.
The steward of the Prince's Mansion hurried over and held Qin Ke's horse. Just as he was about to ask, he saw his master walking to the front of the carriage with a very gentle tone.
"Da Lang, come home."
The author has something to say:
Actually, Prince Shun is probably a fool, so please don't scold him.
PS: Due to policy requirements, the term "eldest brother" can no longer be used in the title (it may cause some misunderstanding - the CP means brothers), so it is renamed "Everyone Loves Little Cannon Fodder". Emma, I still think the original name is nice, woooooo.
