Chapter 14: Incident



To be honest, there was no intimidation in that look. Xie Chongyue leaned over and pecked the corner of the other person's lips: "Let's continue eating. We have business to attend to later."

Xu Shiqing saw the letters and banknotes on the table and moved his fingers.

"Let's eat first." Xie Chongyue said first, "After dinner, let's watch it together, okay?"

"You talk as if I'm in a hurry." Xu Shiqing muttered and picked up the chopsticks.

.

I ate my meal absentmindedly.

Xu Shiqing glanced at the things opposite him several times. After the relationship was established, he became more and more frank in front of Xie Chongyue. He used to be arrogant at the beginning, but now he did not hide his emotions at all. When he was angry, he would just glare at him, and when he was happy, he would just say it directly. Xie Chongyue was so frank that he was secretly pleased and wondered how this man could be so likable.

The food box was put away. Xie Chongyue wrung out the cloth, unfolded it, and wiped the corners of Xu Shiqing's mouth after he had rinsed his mouth.

The sword master was particularly obedient when being served, and he raised his head and looked like he was ready to let others do whatever they wanted.

After cleaning up, they began to read the letter.

Because it was written by Liu Xiangsheng, Xie Chongyue asked Xu Shiqing to read it first, and he went to get the letter written by King Qi, which he had not opened yet.

After the two people finished reading the letters from their respective elders, they gathered together to read them.

Xie Pinghai and Liu Xiangsheng have completely different styles of writing. The former's words and sentences are elegant and natural, while the latter's are concise and clear without any embellishment.

But the meaning was very clear, the Jin people moved south.

Xu Shiqing and Xie Chongyue's expressions grew serious. The Jin people's martial arts world was no match for those unorthodox fellows in the south. Once the war started, the generals of the Qi and Zhou armies would be in danger.

After all, it is impossible to guard against an assassination carried out by a gangster alone.

Shanhaiguan and other places can be said to be the gateway to the Central Plains. Once the defenders are leaderless, it is only a matter of time before they fall into the wolves' mouths. What's more, the heartland of the Central Plains behind Shanhaiguan is flat... They can't retreat, and they can't retreat.

However, the King of Qi did not actually let Xie Chongyue carry out the assassination, which was beyond Xu Shiqing's expectation. However, on second thought, Qi Zhou must have planted spies in the opponent's army, and it seemed that he had other plans.

Furthermore, Liu Xiangsheng must be at the front line at this moment. Compared with Xie Chongyue who needs time to get to the front, for King Qi, the leader of the Liu family who is by his side is obviously the best choice.

After all, whether it is fighting a war or carrying out some conspiracy, it requires timing, and Xie Chongyue cannot catch up.

"We'd better leave immediately." Xu Shiqing stood up and said, "That way we can make preparations."

Xie Chongyue nodded. He already had a plan for the next leg of his journey. A map hung in the room, and the two began to discuss which route would be faster.

Although the Prince of Qi's Mansion controlled several roads, the people who had been traveling around for many years were obviously more experienced. Shili Pavilion even had strongholds in some hidden places, which allowed Xie Chongyue to resolutely cut out several detours and save time on going to the supply station.

After the discussion, they prepared the horses and set off. Xu Shiqing went to pack the luggage, while Xie Chongyue went out to contact the people in the Prince Qi's Mansion to ask for two fast horses.

In the afternoon, the two of them were ready to go and met the dumbfounded Liu Wu Yu and others.

He Wen Gu raised his eyebrows. He now finally understood why these two could get together. Their simultaneous actions seemed to be a good match.

His dislike for Xie Chongyue eased a little. It would be a lie to say that he was not worried about Xu Shiqing. After all, He Wengu had watched him grow from a little kid into a handsome young man in the past twenty years. One can develop feelings for a dog, let alone a person.

Xie Chongyue's status and position were there, and male love was not the right thing to do. He was worried that if this relationship failed, Xu Shiqing would suffer or even be hurt.

But I didn't expect that the prince of Qi was such a romantic. But considering that the prince of Qi only had one wife, the princess, and even if they had no children, he only wanted to adopt one instead of taking a concubine, I think this was because of the prince's words and deeds.

He Wen Gu thought to himself that only his own family knew his own family. Although Xu Shiqing looked well-behaved and sensible, he was not a quiet guy by nature. He went out in the wind and rain, and could not stay idle. He could not be trapped or kept.

In the past 25 years in Bian Jing, he only stayed in this place for 15 years. In the remaining 10 years, he traveled all over the world. It seemed that he would never stop, nor was he willing to stop.

He was a typical Jianghu man, born and raised in the wild, and content with whatever happened. And although Xie Chongyue was also well-known in the Jianghu, it was obvious that he could not give up the Qi Palace and his identity as the prince of Qi. It was his responsibility and his home.

A person trapped in a golden cage will naturally envy the birds flying freely outside. It is natural for Xie Chongyue to be attracted to Xu Shiqing. And who wouldn't like such a sincere and free-spirited person like Xu Shiqing?

But this also seems to foreshadow their separation. Xu Shiqing will not stop, and Xie Chongyue may not be able to give up his responsibilities and follow him to travel the world.

Birds can't walk on the ground forever.

He Wen Gu watched them ride away on horseback, and he had a question mark as to how far the two men could go.

"Uncle master, let's go." Liu Wu Yu said, pulling the reins.

He Wen Gu withdrew his gaze, said hello, then flicked the whip and the horse rushed out with him.

.

The war between Jin and Qi and Zhou broke out again.

As the north grew increasingly cold, the battle line became increasingly tense. At this time, to the west of Qi Zhou, the Mongolian cavalry took the opportunity to invade Qi Zhou's northwestern border town, seemingly targeting the large number of military officers in Huaibei who had been dismissed and imprisoned not long ago, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to invade.

However, Huaibei has dealt with them too many times over the years and is experienced in dealing with them, so they were not taken advantage of.
