The candlelight illuminated the smiling faces of Liu Chi and Qi Xuan.
Liu Chi smiled calmly and elegantly, and Qi Xuan smiled happily.
I looked at the two of them, a little puzzled: "What is so funny?"
"Changting, it's you, right?" Qi Xuan asked.
I reached out and patted his shoulder: "Didn't I say you were shot to death? How come you are still alive and well?"
"Cough cough cough..." Qi Xuan covered his chest and coughed violently. I was frightened and quickly went over to take a look, only to find that there was a pool of blood on his clothes.
When Liu Chi went to get the medicine box and help Qi Xuan bandage, he said to me a little bit reproachfully: "The Seventh Prince just woke up today. That arrow was so cruel. You are so indifferent."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... Lezi, are you still in pain?"
After Liu Chi bandaged him, my eyes were already wet. Although I really didn't want to cry with Xia Yan's body, I couldn't help it when I saw Qi Xuan was so seriously injured.
"Tell me, who hurt you like this?" After sadness, there is endless hatred. If I want to know who it is, I must cut him into pieces.
Qi Xuan raised his eyes and looked at me: "Rui Xueji, of course I want to get this arrow back."
It is a well-known fact that Qi State and Rui State have always been at odds with each other, but this time they fought the hardest. With Yan State as their backing, Rui State's momentum greatly increased.
Coupled with Qi Yao's lack of cooperation, Qi Xuan was almost defeated.
I tightened my grip on my clothes: "How is the battle going now? The Imperial Capital has not received your battle report for four or five days."
Liu Chi and Qi Xuan were surprised: "How is it possible? Spies come back every day."
When I thought about it, I realized that someone must have intercepted those battle reports on the way.
"No wonder the people calling the formation these days are all Shakshe and not Batuzi. He has been an internal correspondent in the Xia Kingdom for so long, so he naturally knows the route to send battle reports." Liuchi suddenly figured it out and couldn't help but blame himself secretly.
.
"Then what should we do? We can't report the war situation. If it's a few days later, I'm afraid the imperial capital will be in chaos." It's really a tricky thing. There can be no news over the border, but there can't be no news here.
"There is no time. Yan Xiaoqing is here now. Since he has a way to let Batuzi intercept the battle report, he naturally has ways to prevent us from sending the letter back. So no matter what we do, there is no way. The only thing we can do is to defeat them
, directly triumphant." Qi Xuan suppressed his smile and said coldly.
Presumably Liuchi is the same as him.
But it seems impossible to defeat Yan Xiaoqing and Rui Xueji in a short time.
Liu Chi said: "Yan Xiaoqing doesn't seem to be trying to compete with us."
"how to say?"
"If he really wants to fight, he will naturally go out in full force. Why should he be timid and change places after fighting? This is obviously an attempt to delay."
Qi Xuan thought carefully for a while and suddenly realized: "He wants to keep the military power in his hands, right? In fact, what he really wants to do is not to attack Xia Kingdom, but..."
Liu Chi nodded to Qi Xuan: "Yes, what he wants is the throne of Yan State. Once the king of Yan State dies suddenly during the war, whoever has military power will be the winner. Now he and Yan Xitong hold the
Yan State has more than half of its troops, and these troops may become his pawns to win the throne."
"Then shall we fight now?" I almost scratched my hair.
