She forgot to tell this person that she was leaving.
Qin Susu slept soundly in the carriage, completely undisturbed by the sound of horses' hooves behind her.
Ling Ba glanced back, but didn't stop. Instead, he raised his riding whip.
But they were still overtaken by Huyan Xun's fierce steed.
"Qiu Yan, you come out here!" Hu Yanxu blocked the carriage from the side.
"Come out! Come out here and explain yourself. Why did you leave?"
Ling Ba's face turned ugly.
Just as he was about to speak, Qiu Yan lifted the curtain and came out.
She said:
"I'm going back to the Central Plains."
"Go back?" Huyan Xun almost laughed in anger.
Last night, he waited in Qiu Yan's room until very late.
He waited and waited, but no one came. Growing increasingly impatient, he even overturned the tables in the hall.
He went to find Mayi.
However, Mayi remained silent.
Throughout the entire ordeal, Mayi never revealed the location of the inn where Qiu Yan was staying.
For this, she received a heavy slap from Huyan Xun, and her face swelled up badly.
She looked aggrieved, but her stubborn eyes showed no sign of fear.
She regretted it a little; she should have left with Qiu Yan.
Unable to get any information, Huyan Xun nearly killed Mayi's maid.
Later, he went to ask King Lu Shi.
Upon inquiring, I learned that Qiu Yan was leaving today?
This is outrageous!
He searched for her all night last night.
Unable to find her, he went to the outskirts of the city early in the morning to wait for her.
As it turned out, he actually managed to catch her.
Qiu Yan and Guo Zhen were indeed leaving, and there were more than a hundred of them, not just three.
Huyan Xun looked intently at Ling Ba behind Qiu Yan, and the more than one hundred plainclothes soldiers behind him.
He thought to himself, "There are quite a few people from the Central Plains under Lu Shi's command."
Originally, only a few hundred people left, right?
"Qiu Yan, you've really pulled a clever trick to get my warhorse."
As Huyan Xun spoke, he clapped his hands.
"How lamentable that I, Huyan Xun, could be deceived by you! How laughable!"
His words made Ling Ba subconsciously reach for the short sword at his waist. This left Xie Ning and the other soldiers completely bewildered and full of questions.
They both thought of the hundreds of warhorses that Qiu Yan had brought to Commander Yuan and the others last time.
"No, I didn't lie to you. Your medicine is enough for six months. I'll come back after six months." Qiu Yan values integrity above all else.
"I'm sorry I didn't say goodbye, it was my oversight."
She really made a mistake.
At the same time, she thought that if she had said goodbye to Huyan Xun yesterday, she probably wouldn't have been able to leave the city smoothly today.
Huyan Xun will definitely try to keep her here.
"Go back, I mean what I say." After Qiu Yan finished speaking, she instructed Ling Ba to spare Hu Yanxun and continued walking.
"Liar, Qiu Yan, you're a liar! You cheated me out of my warhorse!" Huyan Xun blocked Qiu Yan's path again.
Ling Ba shook his head:
"Chanyu, we will come again."
Ling Ba was well aware of the barbarian's nature and would not engage in conflict with them at this time.
Enraged, the Chanyu immediately swung his curved sword and slashed at Ling Ba.
"Get out of the way! A good dog doesn't block the way!"
He felt that Qiu Yan had taken him for a fool and made a fool of him.
Ling Ba remained silent and dismounted from the carriage.
The two exchanged blows and parries, and soon they were locked in combat.
"Chanyu, I truly have something to attend to. Please do not hinder me. I will personally seek you out in six months for a follow-up examination." Qiu Yan took Ling Ba's place and rode forward.
Afterwards, she ordered her soldiers to assist Ling Ba.
She steered her horse and quickly drove away.
