He had only been gone for a few months; just a few months ago, he still believed that Northern Qi would win.
After all, over the years, his impression of the Northern Qi had always been quite good.
This turn of events was completely unexpected.
"Come, I, the Chanyu, will take you to the horse farm." Huyan Xun smiled at Qiu Yan.
Others are in high spirits when they have good news.
However, Qiu Yan and Ling Ba had lost all interest.
Qiu Yan vowed that she would leave today.
She looked at the subordinate who had reported the news and asked him.
"When did you receive this information? Where did it come from?"
The subordinate glanced at Huyan Xun, who nodded, and then said:
"Our spies found out about it, and it's been about a month."
More than a month? The time was roughly around the time they had just set off from Lu Shi.
So much time has passed, where is Gu Qian now?
Qiu Yan was somewhat emotionally unstable.
She usually kept her emotions hidden, especially from outsiders like Huyan Xun, who were neither friend nor foe.
But now, I just can't control my emotions.
She turned away, avoiding looking at Huyan Xun, and quietly lowered her eyes, suppressing her inner unease.
She then asked the subordinate...
"Are you sure that the Prince of Western Qin... and the Commander of Eastern Jin have died in battle one after another?"
Ling Ba stepped forward, extended his hand to Qiu Yan, and finally placed it down. His heart was also filled with icy coldness.
"Well... I only heard it from my scouts."
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy to hear such great news?" Hu Yanxun noticed Qiu Yan's unpleasant expression and couldn't help but ask.
"Qiu Yan, are you very disappointed by the death of your Western Qin prince? Don't be afraid. With me here, no matter how strong Eastern Jin and Northern Qi are, I will still fight them without hesitation. I will definitely avenge you."
Qiu Yan shook her head.
Anyone who harms Gu Qian will be condemned to eternal damnation!
In her mind, she pictured Qin Feng's pitiful yet hateful appearance, and her heart was filled with intense hatred.
"Qiu Yan, don't be sad. Didn't I just say that I would avenge you?" Huyan Xun was overjoyed and waved to his subordinates.
He then led Qiu Yan and Ling Ba to his horse farm.
On the way, Ling Ba and Qiu Yan walked side by side, and Ling Ba couldn't help but whisper words of comfort.
"What that soldier just said was a possibility, not a certainty, Xiaoyan. Everything is just on the surface."
"Hmm." Qiu Yan slowly raised her eyes and looked towards the Central Plains, her eyes filled with moisture.
But ultimately, Ling Ba's words made her feel a little better.
The barbarian horse ranch was a vast expanse of green.
Vast and boundless, stretching as far as the eye can see.
It's bigger than you can imagine.
Inside, horses roam freely, countless in number; outside, there is a fence.
The fence surrounds the entire area, and guards are stationed there.
"How about that? Isn't it dazzling?" Huyan Xun looked up, a smug look on his face.
Qiu Yan looked on indifferently, without replying.
Her heart wasn't really on the horse, but since she needed it, she couldn't help but glance at it a few more times.
Ling Ba watched silently, inwardly sighing.
In horse combat, if it were a one-on-one fight, the horses of Dongjin would really be no match for these grassland horses.
"Would you like to try out my warhorse?" Huyan Xun asked Qiu Yan with a smile.
Qiu Yan really wanted to ride a horse eastward.
However, Huyan Xun is not easy to deal with.
She shook her head; at that moment, she just wanted to be alone.
After looking at the horses, she turned around and prepared to leave with Ling Ba.
But then Qin Susu and Apu stopped walking.
"Xiaoyan, why didn't you invite me to the horse farm?" Qin Susu was immediately amazed by the horses on the grassland!
