When Liu Jinu and the other generals left the courtyard, Hsu Fengnian had the guards outside call for the two captives. Elsewhere, Commandery Princess Hongyan was wolfing down food. When she reluctantly walked into the courtyard, her clothes were still ragged, but her mouth was greasy. When she crossed the threshold, she even burped. This made the Liu cavalry soldier beside her, who was still wearing his armor and carrying his saber and bow, feel curious. He probably realized that a woman like her was not truly otherworldly after all. There was still half a jar of Green Ant Wine left on the table. Clearly, Liu Jinu and the others had "shown mercy". Hsu Fengnian picked up the wine bowl and pointed at a few stone stools. Commandery Princess Hongyan sat down. The young cavalry soldier, who respected Hsu Fengnian more and more like a god, still stood obediently. Commandery Princess Hongyan glanced at the wine jar and bowl on the table and subconsciously sniffed. She was not afraid of itching when she had so many lice, so she poured herself a bowl of wine. She had tasted Green Ant Wine at Falling Horse Pass, and even in the imperial court and the capital. She did not think it tasted that good before, but today, the wine burned from the tip of her tongue to her throat, and then to her stomach. Her entire body instantly warmed up. She felt warm and full. At the same time, she looked at Hsu Fengnian with more provocation. She knew that Hsu Fengnian did not let her commit suicide, so it would be harder for her to die than to live. Of course, this was not necessarily a good thing. Before entering Tiger Head City, she had thought of countless sinister ways Hsu Fengnian could humiliate her as Commandery Princess Hongyan. However, looking at the current situation, while the situation was indeed terrible, it was still within her acceptable range. She raised her head and drank the wine in the bowl in one big gulp. Wiping the corner of her mouth, she said with a charming smile, "What? Does Your Highness want me to serve you in bed? Then why don't you let me change into a clean set of clothes? "
Hsu Fengnian asked in return, "Do you need me to send you a mirror so you can look at yourself?"
Princess Hongyan flew into a rage out of humiliation. Just as she was about to raise her hand to throw the wine bowl away, she quickly suppressed this impulse. She silently poured another bowl of wine. Every bowl she could get was a bowl.
Hsu Fengnian ignored the featherless phoenix. He turned his head to look at the rider who called himself Qifu Longguan and said, "You are very talented in martial arts. That is why I did not kill you."
There was another reason that Hsu Fengnian did not mention. From the eyes of the Dragon Crown, one could not see the hatred that even an outsider like Princess Hongyan would have. Even if a person could hide their expression and eyes, the flow of their Qi could not be hidden from Hsu Fengnian's eyes. The fluctuation of Qi was directly related to happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. This meant that Qifu Longguan, this unpolished jade that had been buried, might be able to go very far on the path of martial arts. Of course, the most important reason was that Hsu Fengnian hoped that there would be someone who could balance his disciple Yu Dilong in the future. This child was the youngest but was the eldest disciple. Unlike Wang Sheng and Lu Yunzhang, whose personalities were clear, there were too many uncertainties. Hsu Fengnian did not want to have another Xuanyuan Pan in his hands in the future. As for Qifu Longguan, he was like a random cat or dog picked up from the side of the road. His talent in martial arts was not the best that Hsu Fengnian had seen, but he was the most interesting. For example, Jiang Ni and the charcoal girl of the Guanyin Sect were called sword embryos. For example, Hong Xixiang and Zhao Ningshen of Longhu Mountain were the reincarnations of Enlightened Masters and were called Bodhi Seeds. The Buddhist sect also had the concept of reincarnated spiritual children. As for Qifu Longguan, he was a little different. He had a bit of everything and nothing was pure. But this was precisely the case. He was most in line with Hsu Fengnian's martial arts journey. Moreover, in that battle, Qifu Longguan had truly caught the "thin line" between the breaths of Hsu Fengnian, this celestial being.
In the present world, there were less than a handful of such people, and this nameless soldier was one of them.
Qifu Longguan was only eighteen years old, but he was already one of Liu Gui's personal cavalry. One had to know that the number one saber user, Gu Jiantang, might not even be as good as Qifu Longguan at this age. Of course, Hsu Fengnian was even more so back then.
Qifu Longguan was a bit nervous. He said in a trembling voice, "King of Beiliang, this lowly one has been an orphan since young. I'll go wherever there's food to eat. If Your Highness doesn't trust this lowly one, you can let this lowly one join the Beiliang Frontier Army. Even a foot soldier is fine. I won't hesitate to kill Beimang. "
At this time, Princess Hongyan laughed sinisterly and fanned the flames. "Orphan? Maybe your parents died under the hooves of the Beiliang cavalry? It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. "
Qifu Longguan was not as shrewd as her, but he was no fool. He couldn't hold back and cursed, "Bitch! Bullshit your mother! "
The young man said with red eyes, "My parents were beaten to death by you rich and powerful bastards from the Southern Dynasty!"
Princess Hongyan was furious. "The Southern Dynasty? What is the Southern Dynasty? The entire Southern Dynasty is just a watchdog raised by the Yelu family! I am Yelu Hongcai, a lowly person like you who can't even walk within a hundred steps of me! "
Qifu Longguan's breathing was rapid, his chest heaving up and down. He took a big step forward and slapped this woman.
Princess Hongyan was not a blockhead. She lowered her head and retreated, hiding behind Hsu Fengnian like a wisp of smoke. She chattered with a smug expression, "Hey, you can't hit me! Look at you, you deserve to never be able to avenge your parents. Oh, maybe trash like you was in the army and worked for the Southern Dynasty.
Maybe you worked for those enemies … "
Qifu Longguan suddenly calmed down and stared at this woman.
Princess Hongyan felt a bone-deep chill. She carefully took back the wine bowl and poured herself another bowl of Green Ant Wine.
At this time, there was a light knock on the door.
Hsu Fengnian poured two bowls of wine and said softly, "Senior Tantai, please come in."
