Chapter 794 Enmity
In the Qi army camp, Qi Heng received the news from Wucheng and breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the Lord of Wucheng is a farsighted man. If Wucheng does not surrender, Qi Heng will find a way to break this balance.
"Qi Heng, come out here!"
Wearing a red dress, Ziyuan stood in the courtyard, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
The crowd neglected their work, their eyes glued to the beautiful woman, drooling all over the place.
Ziyuan frowned in disgust. If he hadn't been in such a hurry to find Qi Heng to argue, he wouldn't have forgotten to wear a veil. After all, seeing him once at Wenjun Tower would cost at least two thousand taels of silver.
Based on this calculation, how much money did he lose!
"You're not afraid to come out, are you?"
Ziyuan raised her voice and said angrily.
Nearby, an old woman sweeping the yard whispered, "Young General Qi has gotten himself into some romantic troubles. Now that his young mistress isn't here, a beautiful woman has come knocking on the door. How are we going to handle this?"
"If it were you, would you choose the young mistress or the beautiful woman?"
The cleaning woman asked another young girl.
The little girl shook her head, not hearing what the old woman was saying at all. Her eyes were fixed on Ziyuan's face; she had never seen such a beautiful person before.
"Bullshit romantic debts!"
Ziyuan was furious and couldn't help but curse. He had been completely fooled by Qi Heng, a despicable man. He had spent money and effort to help him, but Qi Heng took advantage of the situation and tricked Lin Yuesha into his hands first. It was an unfair victory for him.
Since Qi Heng is unrighteous, don't blame him for being unjust!
"It's so dry, aren't you afraid of getting pimples if you get this excited?"
Qi Heng walked to the doorway, facing Zi Yuan without yielding an inch.
"I've already lost my wife, why should I worry about getting pimples? What's the use of this face of mine?"
Not satisfied with what she had just said, Ziyuan turned to the maids and servants who were watching the commotion and said, "Look carefully, I'm a man, a real, pure man!"
What about his romantic entanglements with Qi Heng? That's an insult to him. Who would want a pockmarked face? Bah!
"If you want to get married, plenty of women are willing."
Qi Heng persuaded Zi Yuan to let Lin Yuesha go, because if he kept watching, the prey that ended up in his mouth would be no different from anyone else's.
Any woman except Lin Yuesha is acceptable.
"At least you said something sensible, but I only want Lin Yuesha."
Ziyuan put her hands behind her back, squinted at Qi Heng, and said, "You think I don't know how you've slandered me?"
He dressed as a woman, neither male nor female, obsessed with money, and kept indoctrinating Lin Yuesha behind her back, making him seem like a terrible person.
Zi Yuan had made it clear long ago that he was interested in Lin Yue Sha. She was interesting, and he was handsome. The two of them were a match made in heaven. What did Qi Heng have? Only a blood feud.
"You promised me fair competition, that's what you said to me."
Then, Ziyuan was stabbed countless times in the back by Qi Heng. He could have arrived the day before their wedding, but that night when he checked into the inn, he happened to encounter a lecherous man who stole his clothes.
It seems that Deng Tu Zi was also sent by Qi Heng.
If you want to talk things out, then is it skillful to resort to tricks?
Ziyuan had something to say to Lin Yuesha, but she couldn't see her.
“I never stopped you from telling her the truth.”
All's fair in war, but Ziyuan herself didn't use any tricks, and after being defeated, she blamed the rules for being unfair.
If Ziyuan truly cared about Lin Yuesha, she would have proposed marriage long ago, instead of following in his footsteps.
"you……"
Ziyuan pointed at Qi Heng, too angry to speak. It was the first time she had ever seen such a shameless person.
He reached out and pulled out a ribbon, infused it with his inner strength, and sent it straight toward Qi Heng.
As the ribbon approached, Qi Heng calmly took a step back, dodging the blade-like wind it brought, and stood calmly to the side.
"I advise you to give up; you are no match for me."
Qi Heng spoke calmly, but every word he uttered was a provocation: "Does a defeated opponent still wish to humiliate himself further?"
"Qi Heng, what are you so arrogant about?"
Zi Yuan's continuous attacks failed to even touch the hem of Qi Heng's clothes, which drove him even more crazy. "Don't forget your identity. I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait for the day your lies are exposed."
As the eldest brother, Ziyuan was willing to suffer losses herself and call Qi Heng "father-in-law".
Qi Heng: ...
Having his weak point exposed, he was left feeling very uncomfortable, and the two ended up in a draw in this round.
...
These past two days, Wuya has been taking Lin Yuesha around, and the two have been having a great time chatting. Wuya is very reluctant to let Lin Yuesha go back.
"You'll be my cousin-in-law from now on, so we can see each other whenever we want."
Lin Yuesha took Wuya's hand. Wuya spoke directly and never hid anything. It was very comfortable to be around someone like that without having to think too much.
"That will have to wait until after the war is over. Right now, I'm afraid Gouzi has no intention of marrying me."
When it comes to her marriage, Wuya is very open and honest. Since she doesn't have a mother to make decisions for her, she has to arrange many things herself.
"It will be soon."
Today, the city gates of Wucheng have been opened, and the soldiers of Daqi are preparing to enter the city and set up camp twenty miles outside Wucheng to encircle the foreign tribes.
The ensuing battles were intense and exciting, and Lin Yuesha had to lead her men to prepare military supplies, such as instant noodles.
Just as Lin Yuesha was saying goodbye to Wuya and preparing to leave, Qi Heng arrived.
“Uya brought me a lot of local specialties from Ucheng.”
Lin Yuesha showed a slight affection for Qi Heng upon seeing him, after all, she was now a married woman. Once she had packed her things, she could leave the city later.
"We're not here to take you back. You should stay in Wucheng for now."
Qi Heng arrived with his men to make the handover; the guards at the gates of Wucheng were now his own men. Over the next two days, the Wucheng garrison would be incorporated into the army of the Great Qi, becoming one with them.
There's nothing I can do to help.
Everything went smoothly, and Xu Da was sold for a good price—one man for one city, what a bargain!
“Yu Qiuniang from the First Village has arrived with her people and will be coming to Wucheng in a couple of days.”
Qi Heng made up an excuse to leave Lin Yuesha in Wucheng. Then, the soldiers of Daqi entered, and someone came to hand over Lin Yuesha to them.
Down jackets and instant noodles are some supplies that need to be replenished in Wucheng.
"Alright, but we need to send a message to Sister Baozhu."
After a moment's thought, Lin Yuesha decided that since Wucheng had been taken over by Daqi, it would be better for her to stay in Wucheng.
"Aren't you going to get busy?"
Lin Yuesha noticed that the pockmarked man was still there and seemed to have something to say.
"Ziyuan has come to propose marriage."
Qi Heng proactively informed Lin Yuesha that he had brought a large amount of betrothal gifts.
"I know."
Lin Yuesha was quite puzzled when she heard about it. When did Ziyuan take a liking to her? It shouldn't be like that.
The two had crossed paths, but only briefly. Moreover, the man was addicted to cross-dressing and never missed an opportunity to make money, so when he came to propose marriage, he couldn't get anything out of her.
"He and I have never gotten along."
To supply military needs, Qi Heng often engaged in black market business, frequently clashing with Zi Yuan over money.
Ziyuan is Qilu's savior. Neither of them can kill the other, so they can only deal with each other awkwardly.
"So, he has a grudge against you, so he's targeting me."
Lin Yuesha instantly understood, and her dislike for Ziyuan intensified.
What does a fight between men have to do with her? To steal another man's wife and daughter because of a grudge is utterly despicable.
