Chapter 482 The princess seems to be very interested in me?
Princess Beiyan finally shifted her gaze away from Gu Junze and glanced at Duan Qingye.
"General Wang of Zheng, there is no hostility between Northern Yan and Zheng. Are you trying to start a war between the two countries?"
She seemed to know Duan Qingye's identity very well.
Duan Qingye crossed his arms over his chest, neither refuting nor answering. It turned out that the experienced ones are the most experienced.
Gu Junze: "The princess chased after us late at night, and she didn't hesitate to mobilize such a large force. It must be more than just for an ordinary soldier, right?"
The corners of Princess Beiyan's mouth seemed to curl up slightly under the mask. Although it was not clear, one could feel the amusement.
"He's not an ordinary soldier," she said slowly, "he's my work. Every work is unique."
There was a strange frenzy in her voice that sent shivers down the spines of those who listened.
"You destroyed my camp, I can let it go. But you took my work, that's not okay."
She extended a hand covered in exquisite armor and pointed at the bound ghost soldier. "Give him back to me, and you can leave in peace."
"What if we don't return it?" Gu Junze asked back, his tone still calm.
"Then all of you should stay here and become my new creations."
Princess Beiyan chuckled, and the ghost soldiers around her seemed to have heard the order. They all let out a low roar and took a step forward.
The air froze instantly and the atmosphere became tense.
The shadow guards have protected Gu Junze in the middle, the weapons in their hands flashing with cold light.
Gu Junze spoke at this time: "Princess seems to be very interested in me?"
Princess Beiyan's eyes moved and fell on Gu Junze's calm face.
"People with ability always make people look at them more carefully. Gu Junze, I will remember your name."
She paused, then continued, "I'm taking my people with me. As for you... I can treat today's events as a misunderstanding. After all, there aren't many people I can bother to remember."
In these words, threats and enticement coexist.
Gu Junze’s thoughts raced.
If we fight head-on, we may not gain any advantage. These ghost soldiers are fearless and extremely difficult to deal with.
The main purpose of this trip was to capture him alive, and now the goal has been achieved.
"Princess, if you want your 'work' back, you can." Gu Junze said slowly, "But not now."
Princess Beiyan's brows seemed to be slightly furrowed behind her mask.
"I want to know what these ghost soldiers are." Gu Junze looked directly at her, "Or rather, what method did the princess use to transform living people into this appearance?"
"You are not qualified to know." Princess Beiyan said coldly.
"Then we have nothing to discuss." Gu Junze's tone turned cold, "If you want people, it depends on your ability on the battlefield."
"Are you provoking me?" Princess Beiyan's voice also turned cold, and the murderous aura of the ghost soldiers around her became even heavier.
"Gu Junze," she said word by word, "You are even bolder than I thought."
She was silent for a moment, as if weighing something.
The night wind blew, blowing up the dust on the ground.
Finally, Princess Beiyan spoke again, her voice returning to its previous coldness: "I can leave this person with you temporarily. But I have one condition."
"What conditions?"
"I want you, Gu Junze, to meet me at Shili Slope outside the city at 15:30 in the afternoon, alone, three days later."
Princess Beiyan said: "Then I will tell you something you want to know."
"Of course, you can choose not to come. In that case, I will personally lead my army to destroy the city, retrieve my things, and by the way... take your life as well."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the shadow guards behind Gu Junze and the elite soldiers of Pingzhou all changed.
"General, you can't do that!" Ying Yi hurriedly dissuaded him.
Duan Qingye also frowned: "This witch obviously has bad intentions!"
Gu Junze's expression remained normal. He looked at Princess Beiyan and nodded slowly: "Okay, I promise you."
Princess Beiyan was very satisfied. "Very good. I'll wait for you."
After saying that, she did not stop and blew the bone whistle again, leading the group of ghost soldiers to retreat into the darkness like a tide and quickly disappear.
It seemed as if the purpose of her appearance was just to make this date with Gu Junze.
Gu Junze and his group, carrying the tightly tied "ghost soldier", finally returned to the city before dawn.
Inside the city gate, the lights were bright, but the atmosphere was not relaxed.
Deputy General Wang had been waiting there for them for a long time. Seeing them return safely, he felt relieved.
"General, Doctor Qian has arrived and is waiting in the side hall."
Gu Junze nodded and ordered: "Take this 'thing' to the dungeon first and keep it under strict guard. No one is allowed to approach it."
"yes!"
After everything was arranged, Gu Junze finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In the hall, Doctor Qian was already waiting.
Chu Ruohan was coaxing the two children. Doctor Qian took good care of them.
Duan Qingye reached out and hugged Qingchen, then turned to Gu Junze with a tone like a father scolding his son.
"You useless thing, it's fine if you're just messing around out there, but you're also making your wife and children wander around with you, worried and scared."
Gu Junze lowered his eyelids and did not refute.
He knew that Duan Qingye was telling the truth and he felt very guilty!
Chu Ruohan gently shook his hand, their eyes met, and everything was said without words...
Duan Qingye held Qingchen in his arms and teased him awkwardly.
The great general Wang, who was usually so powerful and decisive, was holding a little baby at this moment, and there was an inexplicable harmony between them.
This child looks like Anyang...
"Humph, if it weren't for this little thing, I wouldn't bother to care about your life or death."
Duan Qingye held little Qingchen for the first time. Chu Ruohan shook her head helplessly. He was really stubborn!
