In the wind and snow, the bright red clothes were extremely eye-catching. Feng Yu Heng immediately recognized Prince Lian. Unfortunately, now was not the time to reminisce. Although the large formation had been broken, there were thousands of enemy soldiers. Even if they did not resist, they would be exhausted to death.
Prince Lian leaned on the railing of the tower with both hands. There were two guards on each side protecting her. Her bright red clothes fluttered in the wind. While looking, she praised: "Ya Ya's skills are really good. I am ashamed of my inferiority."
"Hmph!" Duan Mu An Guo, who had followed her out, snorted coldly, "You're just ashamed of your inferiority? Based on what this leader knows, her Highness Prince Lian does not know any martial arts at all. "
Prince Lian did not get angry, nodding very seriously. She then pointed at the guards at her side and said: "If the masters all knew martial arts, what would they be needed for? Duan Mu An Guo, I have become quite interested in physiognomy and have looked through quite a few books. Now that I see that your glabella is dark and your eyes are dim, I fear that there will be a bloody disaster! "
"Nonsense!" Duan Mu An Guo angrily raised his hand, subconsciously wanting to slap her.
But the four guards at Prince Lian's side were not to be trifled with. One of them reached out and grabbed Duan Mu An Guo's wrist. "Leader, pay attention to your status."
Duan Mu An Guo was born a general, but he was old. In addition to this, he did not have much control over his private life. Over the years, his body had been emptied. If it was not for him desperately using good supplements, how could he still have his current complexion.
He hated King Lian so much that he gnashed his teeth. But now, the soldiers of the North Territory had all been scattered and transferred away under King Lian's suppression, leaving him alone in the tower. Even if he wanted to fall out with King Lian, he didn't have the capital to do so. Duan Mu An Guo felt depressed; however, he still remembered what Prince Lian had said earlier. He could not help but ask: "What exactly happened to Qian Zhou's ruler?"
Prince Lian rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "It's none of your business."
Duan Mu An Guo knew that he could not win against Prince Lian, who had a twisted personality from a young age. He had no place to vent his anger, thus he simply stood to the side and did not speak. At the very least, there were still several thousand soldiers fighting against the enemy. No matter how capable the Ninth Prince and Princess Ji 'an were, it would be difficult for two fists to fight against four hands. With more than five thousand people, the two of them were exhausted to death.
But it was at this time that Prince Lian, who had already returned to watching the battle, spoke up once more. She said something that nearly caused Duan Mu An Guo to suffer internal injuries from anger, saying: "Hah! How could I have forgotten that my Qian Zhou's soldiers are defending Qian Zhou. Now, why must we sacrifice our lives for the lowly North? No, no — "She tugged at the elite guard beside her," Quickly ask them to stop! Everyone stop! Stop fighting! "
Duan Mu An Guo broke out in a cold sweat, quickly saying: "No! What are you doing? Qian Zhou has sent soldiers to defend the North. This is an agreement between this leader and Qian Zhou's ruler. You are also someone who is following orders. Do you know that withdrawing now is disobeying the Emperor's orders? "
"Emperor's orders?" Prince Lian helplessly shook her head, "Duan Mu An Guo, oh Duan Mu An Guo, what did I say? Right now, the ruler is having a hard time protecting himself. How could he still worry about an agreement. "
Duan Mu An Guo was feeling anxious! This Prince Lian kept saying that Qian Zhou's ruler was having a hard time protecting himself, but what exactly did this mean? How was it that he was having a hard time protecting himself? Could it be that Qian Zhou had fallen into internal strife?
A drop of cold sweat fell from his forehead, as he suddenly recalled what Prince Lian had said. The soldiers in Jiang Zhou that had been excavating the dragon vein had already retreated. In the North, only Prince Lian's forces remained. Those soldiers had retreated in a hurry. At that time, he felt that it was odd, but news of Duan Mu Cong's death happened to arrive, so he did not have time to think too much about it. Now that it had been brought up, Duan Mu An Guo had no choice but to think about it. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that such a hasty retreat was a sign that a large problem had occurred in Qian Zhou. Could it be … that there was another battle for the throne?
But normally speaking, that should not be the case. This ruler's vicious methods were not something that a normal person could compare to. During the time that he had fought for the throne, there was nothing that he would not do. Not a single one of his brothers had a good ending, including Prince Lian. She had been tortured from a young age. In the current Qian Zhou, all of the people that were a threat to the throne had already been killed by him. His own children were still young. How could there be anyone that could compete with him!
Duan Mu An Guo's mind continued to analyze the situation. At this time, he saw Prince Lian reach out and place her arms around the necks of the guards to her side, saying in a delicate voice: "Let's go. Bring I to meet with some old friends. At the same time, we will help leader Duan Mu and clean up the people that should be taken care of."
Once these words came out, Duan Mu An Guo was finally given a shock. He thought to himself, so what if you're arrogant. In the end, you still need to listen to the ruler's orders.
At this time, Prince Lian's two guards had already flown into the air. It was as though they were carrying a treasure, carefully sending it into the middle of the army. At the same time, two other guards charged forward with their swords. The tips of their swords were sharp, as they were pointed at Xuan Tianming and Feng Yu Heng.
Duan Mu An Guo's heart was filled with excitement, but he did not dare get too close. In fact, he did not dare expose himself. He still remembered how those people from earlier had died. He also remembered the hole in his eldest son's forehead. Imperial daughter Dashun had a strange hidden weapon. He had to be on guard.
Duan Mu An Guo, who was hiding in the tower, watched the two guards from Qian Zhou stab forward with their swords. In his mind, he had already begun to imagine Xuan Tianming and Feng Yu Heng dying to their swords. But he never thought that the dignified Qian Zhou's Prince Lian would actually betray them at such a crucial moment. She had actually betrayed them and actually … stabbed her two swords at Feng Yu Heng's side. The two assassins from the North had been mixed in with the army.
The center of the battle was already very close to the tower. When Duan Mu An Guo saw the two assassins that he had secretly sent get stabbed in the chest by the people from Qian Zhou, his scalp exploded. But he immediately came up with a countermeasure. He did not stay any longer. Without another word, he turned and ran.
Prince Lian's appearance caused the army that had been attacking Xuan Tianming and Feng Yu Heng to suddenly stop. Everyone put down their swords and did not move. When Prince Lian was placed on the ground by the guards, the thousands of people knelt at the same time, loudly shouting: "Your Highness Prince Lian! Long live Prince Lian! "
Feng Yu Heng frowned upon hearing this. Was there something wrong with this woman? Was there something wrong with all of her subordinates? What sort of time was this? The enemy was right in front of them, yet they actually had the heart to salute?
Xuan Tianming had heard about Prince Lian before, and he was not surprised. He just pulled back his whip and shook it to get rid of the blood. He then helped Feng Yu Heng tidy up her hair that had become messy from the battle. He then pulled her cloak tighter and quietly asked: "Are you hurt?"
Feng Yu Heng shook her head: "I'm not hurt."
"Are you cold?"
"A little."
Upon hearing that she was a little cold, Xuan Tianming quickly removed his own cloak and tightly wrapped it around the girl. Under the cold and emotionless mask, there was a gentleness that could not be hidden.
Prince Lian stood across from the two and watched. Without having the soldiers stand up, she said to the guard to the side: "Do you see this? The most heartless people are this sort of person. You saved her, but she doesn't know how to be grateful. She just knows how to be lovey-dovey with another man. It really is a waste of I's efforts. "
Feng Yu Heng frowned and looked at her, correcting her: "It's not another man. This is my man."
"Then what about me?" Prince Lian leaned forward and asked her with a smile, "What about me, what about me?"
"You …" Feng Yu Heng thought for a bit, "You can be considered my woman."
"Then," Xuan Tianming spoke up, pointing at the soldiers, "I's woman's woman, what do you have to say about today's matter?"
Prince Lian laughed and kicked the soldiers at her side, "Get up, get up, all of you get up for this great one! Back up! Hah, back up a little further for this great one! " Not long later, the thousands of soldiers had been chased back by her, leaving only four guards at her side. Seeing that they had retreated more or less, Prince Lian finally said: "There's nothing much to say. I do have some enmity with Duan Mu An Guo. His stage must be dismantled. Not to mention helping to defend the North, even if there comes a day when you attack Qian Zhou's capital, as long as Duan Mu An Guo is present, I will still open the gates for you! "
When she said this, Feng Yu Heng immediately felt the hatred that she had felt in the tunnel. It was the hatred that Prince Lian felt for Duan Mu An Guo. She did not know where this hatred came from. One was from Qian Zhou's imperial family and one was an official from Dashun. How could two completely unrelated people develop such a deep hatred?
Xuan Tianming looked at Prince Lian thoughtfully for a while then nodded, "So it's like this." These words had a double meaning, and it was clear that he understood Prince Lian's explanation. His understanding was deep, and it meant that he could see the truth hidden behind Prince Lian's beautiful appearance.
He hugged the servant at his side a little tighter and quietly said: "Don't pay too much attention to him."
"Hey!" Prince Lian lost it, "Old ninth of the Xuan family, aren't you meddling too much? You meddle with the heavens and the earth, yet you meddle with your wife's friends? In this lifetime, this great one has only taken a liking to one good sister. If you dare to cause trouble for me, do you believe that I won't call those five thousand troops back? "
Xuan Tianming nodded, "I do."
"Then you still … …"
"I am happy to."
Feng Yu Heng facepalmed. Alright, she believed it. Xuan Tianming's arrogance was matched with Prince Lian's arrogance. The two were truly evenly matched!
"The one surnamed Feng." Feng Yu Heng raised an eyebrow and looked at her, "Such a large favor, yet you're just going to give it away? Since Qian Zhou has sent troops to defend the North, it must be the emperor's intention. How will you explain it when you return? "
Prince Lian's eyes lit up, "Ya Ya, are you worried about me?"
Xuan Tianming furrowed his brow and corrected her: "It's Heng."
"I'm happy to be called Ya Ya! I'll anger you to death! " This person was at odds with Xuan Tianming, "In any case, I can be considered the benefactor that saved your life. Is there anyone that doesn't know how to be grateful? I'll tell you, if it wasn't for this great one standing guard here, if it wasn't for the people that came out of the tunnel being this great one's people, if it wasn't for this great one thinking of ways to send Duan Mu An Guo's troops away, do you think that Song Zhou City could have been so easily broken? "
It wasn't broken, alright? Feng Yu Heng looked at the city gate in the distance. The ice blocking the gate was still very, very thick.
"Hah, there's no point in saying these things to you. I've already done the good deed, so I won't leave my name. But Ya Ya, you must remember that you owe I another favor, and it's a large favor. In the future, when I have something to ask of you, you must not refuse! "
Feng Yu Heng slightly furrowed her brow. Prince Lian always spoke of favors. What exactly did she have to ask of her?
