Qi Heng paused, unsure whether to be pleased or angry.
Gu Qian stepped forward and removed the crossbar from Qi Heng's legs.
"Tell me, how are you going to deal with me?"
"I...I, Gu Qian, you've betrayed me, you're not a man, you've used me and then discarded me, you, you, you're a real scoundrel!"
Qi Heng's face was streaked with tears, and he looked like a wronged young wife.
Gu Qian: "How did I betray my promise and discard my trust after I've served my purpose?"
Qi Heng frowned, about to complain again, but was silenced by a single sentence from General Liang, who followed closely behind.
"Second Prince, what's wrong with you?"
“Liang Jie?” Qi Heng looked at General Liang in surprise. Wasn’t he one of Qi Ze’s men?
Why did Gu Qian also get demoted?
"You, Liang Jie, how dare you talk to me like that?"
As he spoke, he turned his upper body to check on Shangguan Hong's condition, and found him...
He had already died.
"Father-in-law, you're leaving. How am I supposed to explain this to Yan'er?"
Liang Jie coughed dryly. Well, he and Qi Heng usually went their separate ways.
Seeing Qi Heng's miserable state, he remained silent.
Seeing the palace that stood tall this morning reduced to rubble in an instant, he sighed, "How pitiful, how lamentable, how tragic!"
He felt fortunate, at least he was still alive.
He also glanced down at Lord Shangguan beneath him.
Upon discovering that he had already passed away, I couldn't help but shake my head.
Seeing Lord Dong's body engulfed in flames from afar, he jogged to help put out the fire.
"Father-in-law..." Qi Heng's eyes were red, and he cried out to heaven and earth in vain.
He tried to get up, but his legs were in excruciating pain and he couldn't muster any strength.
At that moment, he truly understood what it meant for a fallen phoenix to be worse off than a chicken.
This Gu Qian, he didn't even offer to help him up.
He simply stopped getting up and looked at Gu Qian again, his face filled with even more anger.
"God, why are you punishing me like this?"
Gu Qian: "God? God not taking you away is already an extraordinary act of mercy."
He thought to himself, Qi Heng is really lucky.
Qi Heng: "Gu Qian, my uncle, father-in-law, and I have already surrendered, so why do you still want to kill us all?"
Gu Qian: "When did I ever intend to exterminate you all?"
This Qin Feng is truly naive.
Ever since he arrived, his gaze has been lingering on the Northern Qi palace.
One word
miserable!
This time, Qin Feng finally got his revenge.
Qi Heng was stunned for a moment. From the moment he saw Gu Qian, he had already guessed that it wasn't Gu Qian who did it.
But can't he let his frustration get the better of him?
He stared at the mangled limbs on the ground, then glared fiercely at Gu Qian.
“The prince of Western Qin, yes, that prince of Western Qin just now, he said he is your man.”
Gu Qian: "I actually wish he were one of my men."
If that were true, he would have won this battle long ago.
Qin Feng, Qin Feng, I spent two whole months arranging my chess pieces and strategies, only to have them all ruined by your single cannon attack.
He has enough physical strength, but his intelligence comes second.
The result was somewhat disappointing.
However, the Northern Qi dynasty truly perished.
Qi Heng: "Isn't that right? You once said that your Dongjin and Xiqin were joining forces to attack our Northern Qi!"
Gu Qian admitted, "I did say that; it was just mutual exploitation."
Qi Heng: "All of this was orchestrated by you."
"Qi Heng, use your brain and think this through. Your Northern Qi harbors deep hatred for Western Qin, which suffered the loss of its kingdom. How could Qin Feng possibly let such an opportunity slip by?"
Gu Qian glanced at Qi Heng sideways, but because he had something on his mind, he didn't want to waste words with him.
