"There's always someone stronger than you," Captain Qin chuckled, then added, "He's impressive, but his physique is just too thin."
Gu Qian: "Why are you so interested in her?"
Lieutenant Qin: "I'm just curious, General, did she betray the Fourth Prince of Northern Qi?"
This person had done Dongjin a great favor, and he was naturally extremely grateful.
Gu Qian: "No, she was never one of the Fourth Prince's people."
"Then who is she...?"
“She’s from Western Qin.” Gu Qian lowered his voice.
If he hadn't said it, Qin, that reckless brute, would never have imagined it.
"What?" Captain Qin was shocked. So, she wasn't one of the Fourth Prince of Northern Qi's people.
"So it's the young general from Western Qin. No wonder she helped us. But why did she help us?" Captain Qin scratched his head, completely puzzled.
Gu Qian: "Don't you think what you just said is contradictory?"
Captain Qin: "It's quite contradictory, but I still don't understand why she's helping us?"
"For her Highness."
After Gu Qian finished speaking, he spurred his horse and rode away from Commandant Qin.
Unexpectedly, Captain Qin caught up with them again.
"General, who is his prince?"
Gu Qian: "..." This is a mess!
"Didn't I just tell you that she is from Western Qin, and her prince is naturally a descendant of Western Qin?"
"Hmm?" Captain Qin's eyes widened, and after thinking carefully, he nodded.
"That makes sense now. So, we have a common enemy. General, but why is the Fourth Prince of Western Qin helping us?"
Gu Qian was speechless.
"There is no Fourth Prince in Western Qin!"
"Ah? Oh right, it's the Fourth Prince of Northern Qi. But that's not right, General. Why would the Fourth Prince of Northern Qi help our Dongjin?"
Gu Qian... if he keeps talking, he'll turn into mush too.
He ignored Commandant Qin and rode away from the scoundrel.
Commandant Qin thought and thought, but couldn't come up with a correct answer.
This issue has once again become a source of confusion.
"The Fourth Prince of Northern Qi... The Fourth Prince of Western Qin... Which prince is it? General, wait for me..."
...In the capital of Qi, because Dongjin entered the palace, the emperor of Northern Qi was filled with fear and trepidation.
He summoned his generals and sent them to various cities, vowing to defend them to the death.
"Gu Qian, you little brat, dreaming of trampling my vast lands? You're delusional!"
He slammed his hand on the table, clearly furious.
The assembled officials knelt before him.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger!"
"One by one, you all want me to calm down. Which of you can help me quell my anger?"
The Northern Qi emperor never expected that in just a few years, Dongjin would have such courage, daring to lead an army to attack their Northern Qi.
By turning defense into offense, Dongjin surprisingly gained the upper hand.
Who gave them the courage?
Thinking of the repeated deaths of the Chu family army, his knuckles cracked as he clenched his fists.
"This is outrageous! This is outrageous!"
He doesn't even consider who started the war first.
It was he who wanted to destroy Dongjin, which led him to his own doom.
The Chu family army, consisting of Chu Huai-ren and his son Chu Tian, were essentially his right-hand men.
It was Dongjin who severed his left and right arms.
The rest of the Chu family's generals were brave but lacked strategy, some were even mediocre, truly good-looking but useless.
"Gu Qian, if you dare to come to Qi Capital, I will make sure your body is never found!"
The person the Northern Qi emperor feared most was actually General Li; he had never taken Gu Qian seriously.
If it weren't for Li Zheng, he wouldn't have suffered such a severe blow in that major battle seven years ago.
...
During the march,
"General, Fu'ancheng is just ahead," Feng Qi reported.
