Chapter 1010 Can't Get Through Three Moves
Qi Heng didn't recognize the girl in front of him, but when Sun Baiwan was mentioned, he nodded, indicating that there was such a person.
Sun Baiwan was once a subordinate of the Prince of Zhenbei. He was a man of integrity and trustworthiness. When Qi Heng came to persuade him to surrender and wanted to bring Sun Baiwan under his command, Sun Baiwan only made one condition: he wanted to have a contest with Qi Heng.
If Qi Heng can defeat him within ten moves without resorting to trickery, Sun Baiwan will be completely convinced and will not only lead his men to join Qi Heng, but will also take the initiative to act as an envoy to persuade his brothers to join him.
"No need for ten moves, three moves will suffice."
Qi Heng remained calm in the face of provocation, and it was precisely because he was so calm that he appeared somewhat dismissive.
Sun Baiwan admires capable people, but he despises those who boast. After all, on the battlefield, fighting depends entirely on strength, not on words.
Showing off fancy tricks is useless; real skills are what matter.
Sun Baiwan even thought that if Qi Heng was a fool, he would immediately lead his men to join the Wei family.
Although Tian Dali was a good brother, he still had thousands of men under his command, and it was impossible for him to disregard the lives of his other brothers for the sake of one person.
After the two made their agreement, Qi Heng let Sun Baiwan make the first move, which was tantamount to giving way again.
Sun Baiwan showed no mercy and immediately adopted a reckless fighting style.
Strangely enough, when he made his move, Qi Heng seemed to be able to see through his trajectory. Instead of suppressing him, Qi Heng maneuvered around him and, on the third move, directly used a grappling technique to take down Sun Baiwan.
This is like a cat catching a mouse. It corners the mouse but doesn't kill it. Instead, it plays with it, holds a ceremony, and then lets the mouse die of old age.
Qi Heng's strength lies in the fact that even his three moves were pre-planned, and everything was under his control.
Sun Baiwan knew what was going on and readily admitted defeat, directly clasping his hands in a fist salute to Qi Heng.
Sun Xiangxiang, who was in the crowd, witnessed this process, and after Sun Baiwan returned home, he expressed his respect for Qi Heng quite a bit.
My elder brother is such a powerful person, yet he couldn't even last three moves against General Qi. Qi Heng is definitely a great hero!
"Young General Qi, my maid was rude just now, I'm sorry."
Sun Xiangxiang glared at the two maids, who immediately stepped forward and kowtowed to admit their mistake. They had been blind to have driven away such an important person.
Sun Baiwan often talked to his family about the situation in the north. Although Qi Heng was a young general, he had more than just these troops in the north under his command. When he returned to the capital, he could take a higher position.
At that time, the Sun family could no longer afford to associate with them.
Sun Xiangxiang rolled her eyes, determined to win Qi Heng's favor.
"It's getting late, let's go."
Qi Heng frowned slightly and took the first step. Sun Xiangxiang didn't even want the small tent anymore and immediately followed closely behind with her maid.
"Cousin, another scoundrel has appeared."
Uya rolled her eyes. It wasn't that she looked down on Miss Sun, but in front of Lin Yuesha, Sun Xiangxiang's eyes revealed her ambition without any attempt to hide it, which was repulsive.
Men of some status and position are never short of beautiful women, which troubles Uya greatly.
In contrast, Lin Yuesha completely ignored it, admiring the scenery along the way. She was recalling her feelings when she first came to Yutan Temple.
Returning to the familiar place, it was a pity that my best friends Jiang Baozhu and Zhang Qing'er were not by my side.
Aren't you angry at all?
After observing carefully for a moment, Wuya realized that Lin Yuesha was not pretending, but genuinely didn't mind.
Women are often jealous of each other, especially when a beautiful young woman appears. If it were her, she would definitely question Xu Da on the spot and not be able to tolerate it for a moment.
"What's there to be angry about?"
Lin Yuesha was in a good mood and wouldn't let a stranger affect her emotions.
"Cousin, when will I be able to learn how to conduct myself like you?"
Uya touched her stomach, her expression becoming even more worried.
After becoming pregnant, she became more preoccupied. Recently, Wuya developed freckles on her face, and she was always worried that Xu Da would dislike her.
In wealthy households, there are always maids who serve as concubines. When the mistress of the house becomes pregnant, she sends out a maid to serve her.
Uya also had maids by her side, but she didn't want anyone to share her husband, so she was careful not to bring them to the northern lands.
During this time, the couple stayed together, and Uya deliberately avoided the question.
If someone like Miss Sun were to be so attentive to Xu Da, Wu Ya would feel very uncomfortable.
"Then aren't you very tired?"
Lin Yuesha was shocked. Women become too vulnerable when they fall in love, always worrying that they are not good enough for the other person.
In fact, she had thought the same way before. At that time, Qi Heng still had a pockmarked face, and Lin Yuesha had also fallen into a sensitive emotional state.
Now, she won't.
Why?
Lin Yuesha wouldn't be angry if Qi Heng were to have an ambiguous relationship with other women, but Wu Ya was even more shocked than Lin Yuesha when she found out.
The two had never discussed similar topics before, and Lin Yuesha had not expressed her thoughts.
"For example, if Miss Sun is interested in my husband and expresses it, that's none of my business."
Sun Xiangxiang has taken a liking to Qi Heng, and even if Lin Yuesha tries to stop her, she can't change Sun Xiangxiang's mind.
How Qi Heng rejects Tao Hua is his own business.
When they got married, the couple promised to be together for life. If Qi Heng had any other intentions, Lin Yuesha would not blame him and they would simply part ways.
As for sadness, there will certainly be feelings of sadness, but I will never be so heartbroken as to feel like I'm dying over it; there's absolutely no need for that.
It takes two to tango; if Qi Heng doesn't give him a chance, no one can get close.
"You have no idea how he rejected Wang Binglan."
Lin Yuesha repeated Qi Heng's famous quote, which made Wuya laugh heartily until tears streamed down her face.
No wonder Lin Yuesha didn't care; her main sense of security came from Qi Heng. Qi Heng didn't give anyone a chance to take advantage of her, and the couple trusted each other, which was truly commendable.
"well."
Lin Yuesha sighed. She pinched her cheek and said sadly, "But after getting married, I haven't had a single suitor."
There were originally two or three exceptional ones, like Yuwen Kun, who were impersonated by Qi Heng using his enchanting voice. There was also the beautiful Ziyuan, but when it came time to propose marriage, Lin Yuesha hadn't even seen a trace of her.
Her peach blossoms withered before they even bloomed, and within a hundred meters of her, not a single blade of grass grew; only Qi Heng's tree stood nearby.
"Moon Sa, you have a magnanimous nature, so you are destined to live a better life than others."
Uya was filled with emotion, but she hesitated and looked back, and she hated this version of herself.
“Sister-in-law, you will need time to adapt when you leave Wucheng for the north and move to the capital.”
Regardless of what others do, a woman must first learn to treat herself well, because being a person starts with oneself, and only then do other roles such as wife and mother come into play.
It's too tiring to fight with so many women in the inner quarters for a husband. You'd be better off traveling, enjoying different cuisines, and broadening your horizons.
Lin Yuesha has her own plans. When she has time in the future, she will definitely travel around and appreciate the beautiful landscapes of the Great Qi.
As for offspring, I'll leave it to fate.
