Before dawn the next day, the horn of the expedition was heard, and they set off. This time Xia Yan only brought 30,000 troops, but these 30,000 were elite troops, and the remaining 600,000 were used as backup troops. In the future, we can reach the border of Qi State.
When Qi Xuan left, he left five thousand elite soldiers for me to dispatch. He said that these five thousand people could keep me safe as a last resort.
I accepted his kindness.
Qi Xuan and Xia Yan left for about five days, and Liu Chi came back.
He looked tired, with almost no blood on his face. If he hadn't been standing in front of me, safe and sound, I would have even wondered if this guy had just jumped out of the coffin.
Huo Qilin and others couldn't wait to ask him about the results.
Liuchi smiled slightly and took out a transparent bead from his arms. At this moment, we cheered and even hugged each other excitedly, but we ignored Liuchi's shaky body.
Muxi was still attentive and could tell something was wrong with Liuchi at a glance: "What's wrong with you?"
I couldn't help but worry: "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Liu Chi waved his hand: "I'm tired from the journey. Just rest for a while and you'll be fine."
I was hesitant and kept asking Muxian for confirmation. Muxian looked at it carefully for a long time and said, "I am indeed tired."
I immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Then rest first and we'll talk about the rest later."
Liuchi slept for three days and two nights. During this period, every other hour, I would run to the room where Qi Yao was detained. I was afraid that once Qi Xuan made up his mind, he would succeed in committing suicide with his own body.
On the fourth day, Liuchi's vitality recovered and he began to swap the souls of the two bodies.
Qi Yao began to resist crazily, but was slapped into confusion. He opened his blood-like eyes and said word by word: "An Changting, you Wu Clan will not die a good death, and each of you will have retribution."
"There's so much nonsense, shut his mouth." I ordered coldly.
Now I am particularly afraid of hearing the word 'retribution'.
…
Two days later, I buried Qi Yao with his severed hands and feet beside his father's imperial mausoleum. He did not suffer any pain before executing him. In order to preserve his whole body, I also ordered Hei Po to bury his severed hands and feet. They were all found and buried together.
"Princess, what should we do next?" Osmanthus asked.
I stood with my hands folded facing the east of the imperial mausoleum. The rising red sun rose majestically, and the earth was instantly filled with light.
"Wait, wait until they are fighting fiercely, and then we will finish it."
Osmanthus osmanthus remained silent, and Liuchi said, "This is a very good move."
So, I led the five thousand elites Qi Xuan gave me and left Qi State in a mighty manner.
At that moment, the sky was high and the sea was vast, and nothing could trap me.
Just at this time, the thing I asked Hanyang to do had been completed. On the way out of Qi, I happened to meet someone who was bringing something. Liuchi intercepted the person and put him back. Then he took the "Purple Wall Treasure Mirror" "give it to me.
Previously, I only read the first part and didn't read the rest at all. It wasn't because I didn't have time, but because I didn't dare because I was afraid of seeing a future I didn't want to see.
But now I can't care so much, I urgently want to know the outcome of the matter.
So I mustered up the courage to turn to the last page...
"Ah——" I exclaimed.
Liu Chi ran over quickly and asked nervously: "What's going on?"
