Qi Heng endured the pain and quickly dodged, "You...you want to kill me?"
Gu Qian, Qiu Yan, and He Lin turned around at the same time, but found nothing.
Zhan Yue quickly came to He Lin's side and assumed a defensive stance.
He Lin's face was grim. "Gu Qian, what's going on?"
Gu Qian: "You should ask Qi Heng that question. An unlucky journey will inevitably lead to one's own demise."
Qi Heng: "What do you mean?" He didn't do anything.
"Qi Heng, behave yourself and be a coward, otherwise you won't even know how you died."
Gu Qian's words were to the point; he believed that Qi Heng would figure out the rest on his own.
After he finished speaking, he and Qiu Yan entered the General's Mansion together, leaving Qi Heng with a livid face.
For more than a year, Qi Heng's status as a hostage has subjected him to countless scornful looks, which has made him much more docile than before.
However, deep down, he was still arrogant.
"Gu Qian!" He Lin's face darkened. Did this Gu Qian think he didn't exist?
The contest between the three ended with Gu Qian ignoring it.
Qi Heng was still in shock. "What did he mean by what he just said?"
He Lin: "Qi Heng, is the person in the shadows your enemy?"
"My enemies are all in Northern Qi." There are quite a few people who want to kill him, after all, his brothers are very envious of his position as crown prince.
Could it be that those people have stormed into Shangjin?
But then he thought, that shouldn't be the case. Hadn't his father already given up on him?
Could it be that you're worried?
Qi Heng couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it.
Just then, a thunderclap was heard in the sky, followed by the whooshing sound of arrows.
Zhan Yue blocked He Lin's way.
Countless royal guards suddenly rushed out to protect He Lin.
Seeing a cold arrow flying towards him, Qi Heng turned pale with fright. He couldn't dodge in time, and the arrow struck him squarely in the shoulder. The pain was excruciating.
Another arrow was fired, this time aimed at his arm.
Qi Heng screamed in agony.
Clearly, all the sabotage was aimed at him.
Once again, he dodged and began to fight back with all his might.
Fortunately, his men were not to be trifled with either. Knowing that he was in danger, they all appeared and protected him.
Gu Qian and his companion rushed out upon hearing the commotion. Seeing the situation ahead, Gu Qian firmly protected Qiu Yan, while Qiu Yan was unable to remain calm.
This city of Shangjin is rife with hidden dangers.
At that moment, she had the thought of leaving.
She didn't want to stay in Shangjin any longer; she came to Shangjin not to put herself in a passive or dangerous position.
Ling Qi and Ling Ba immediately located the person hiding in the shadows, and another barrage of swords and spears ensued.
The barrage of arrows abruptly ceased.
When everything around becomes quiet
Qi Heng stood there, stunned, his lips trembling, clearly angry.
He looked at Gu Qian: "It was you, you were the one who wanted to kill me, weren't you?"
He Lin also looked at Gu Qian, sharing the same suspicions as Qi Heng.
Gu Qian: "If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have brought you to Shangjin as a hostage in the first place."
Qiu Yan felt that the two men in front of her, a king and a crown prince, were both incredibly stupid.
She remained invisible and quietly returned to the general's mansion.
Qi Heng, feeling distraught due to his injuries, returned to his residence.
Once only Gu Qian and He Lin remained, He Lin lowered his eyes and pursed his lips.
"Gu Qian, we won't have to wait six months, maybe just one or two months, before war breaks out."
War is about to break out... Are you ready?
It wasn't that he was afraid of Northern Qi, but rather that Northern Qi's army numbered 500,000 more than Shangjin's.
