Outside the city, 300,000 troops blocked the city gates on all sides. [.] Inside the city, civil and military officials gathered in the main hall, looking at Qin Jiyan who was sitting firmly on the throne, and wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, nothing happened
I couldn't say even half a word.
The reinforcements Qin Jiyan mentioned did not appear until the army led by Gu Qiancheng came to the city.
There are no reinforcements, and he refuses to abandon the city. Is the emperor preparing to be the king of subjugation?
The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. No one spoke. Even their breathing was cautious. At this time, any sound would be amplified dozens of times.
"Report..." the high-pitched voice of the messenger came in.
The eyes of everyone in the hall, including Qin Jiyan, fell on the messenger who walked into the hall. The messenger knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, the enemy leader wants to see you."
Gu Qiancheng fought all the way and asked to see Qin Jiyan more than once, but he never did.
Qin Jiyan not only refused to see her, but also refused to reply to her letters. She wrote countless letters to Qin Jiyan, asking why Qin Jiyan made Ni Yue his queen?
But the letters that were sent out were like mud in the sea, and there was no news at all.
Qin Jiyan did not see her and did not reply to any messages from her. This made Gu Qiancheng, who was originally full of confidence and firmly believed that Qin Jiyan would not let her down, began to doubt that Qin Jiyan did not care about her as much as she thought.
If you really care about her, why don't you give her an explanation?
Even if he was lying to her, it didn't matter. As long as he could lie to her for a lifetime, she could pretend to be stupid, but... no! Qin Jiyan didn't give her any explanation, and he didn't even want to see her.
"Meet me? Okay! Let her go into the city and come see me in person!" Qin Jiyan suppressed the throbbing in her heart and said coldly.
His thousand cities have finally arrived.
"The enemy leader said that you need to go out of the city to see her in person, otherwise she will lead her troops to break into the city and slaughter everyone in the city." The ordering soldier lowered his head and let the beads of sweat fall, but did not dare to wipe them away.
.
This is totally rebellious.
But the other party even committed rebellion, so what if he said a few treasonous words?
"Tell her that I will not leave the palace to see her. If you want to see me, you will enter the city." If you enter the city and the palace, won't you be able to see him?
There are only two outcomes for rebellions, failure or failure. Now that Gu Qiancheng has reached the capital, he must fight hard, otherwise he will die.
After entering the city, Qiancheng can enjoy the fruits of victory as a victor, and he can abdicate naturally. He will not have a few years to live, and there is nothing to be attached to this throne.
"Yes." The ordering soldier received Qin Jiyan's affirmative reply and bowed back.
As soon as the messenger left, the main hall exploded. "Your Majesty, the rebels are just outside the city. Isn't it a good idea to let the leader of the rebels enter the city at this time?"
"What if we capture someone and instead of threatening the rebels, we anger them and they massacre the city?"
"Your Majesty, is this plan feasible? Should we wait for reinforcements to arrive? The food in the city is enough for us to last for more than ten years. As long as the rebels cannot break the city, we have nothing to worry about."
…
At this moment, the officials standing in the palace, except for Feng Sijin and Mr. Jiao, all believed that Qin Jiyan wanted Gu Qiancheng to come to see him as a trick to lure the enemy. They were all full of expectations and uneasy, and their anxiety was extremely high.
But Qin Jiyan didn't say a word, he just sat on the throne, letting the people below him get mad and didn't respond even a word.
At the North City Gate, Gu Qiancheng was wearing battle armor and standing on a chariot, looking firmly in the direction of the city gate, waiting for the city gate to open, hoping that the person she wanted to see would appear.
It's been half a year, from the beginning it was just to deal with Jing Yan, to later he beat him up hard, just to get into the capital to see Qin Jiyan and ask Qin Jiyan why?
She doesn't want to ask now why Qin Jiyan wants to become a queen. She just wants to ask why Qin Jiyan doesn't see her? Why doesn't he give her an answer?
She doesn't want much, does she?
"Rumble..." The city gate opened, and Gu Qiancheng's eyes lit up. She stared at the crack with burning eyes, hoping that the person she had been longing for could come out of that crack, but... no!
The person who rode out of the city was not Qin Jiyan, but an ordinary soldier.
Disappointment welled up in his heart. No matter how strong Gu Qiancheng was, he couldn't help but feel aggrieved at this moment.
How many times has this happened?
She no longer remembers that before every attack on the city, she would have someone send a message to Qin Jiyan that she wanted to see him. After the city was breached, she would also write a note to Qin Jiyan in the name of a local official and tell him,
She wants to see him.
The news was reported layer by layer, and it would be delivered to Qin Jiyan no matter what, but she waited and waited, but she still couldn't find the person she wanted to see.
Along the way, Jing Yan told her more than once that Qin Jiyan was no longer the Qin Jiyan she knew and wanted her to give up. She knew Jing Yan had ulterior motives and she didn't believe Jing Yan's words, but her heart sometimes
Uncontrollable wavering, like right now!
Qin Jiyan refused to see her again and again, which broke her heart.
Sometimes she would wonder, why did she risk her life to come out of the Fire City?
"General Gu, the Holy One said that if you want to see him, you must enter the city." The soldier rushed to the center and stopped, shouting at Gu Qiancheng.
"Going into the city?" The repeated rejections made Gu Qiancheng's heart grow colder. The expectation in his eyes was replaced by indifference. Gu Qiancheng suppressed all emotions and shouted coldly: "I will enter soon.
The city, but it’s not what you think! Tell Qin Jiyan that if you don’t come out before dark, you’ll be waiting for me to lead my army to break into the city!”
After saying this, Gu Qiancheng casually pulled out the saber of the guard behind him and smashed it hard!
"Pa..." The blade pierced the soil, and the blade trembled rapidly.
Enter the city!
She'll make her way to town!
She will use her own way to ask for an explanation!
Gu Qiancheng's words were undoubtedly a declaration of war. Seeing the trembling sword not far away, the soldier who was ordering the order was so frightened that his legs weakened and he almost fell off his horse.
"You, wait!" The soldier ordered the soldier to turn his horse's head and drive into the city quickly, fearing that he would be killed if he was too late.
"I'll wait! I can wait as long as I can!" Gu Qiancheng's eyes were slightly red, but he stubbornly raised his head and looked in the direction of the palace.
She knew that her son was in Xunli, and the man she had been waiting for was also there.
Since that man won't come out to see her, then she can walk in. Even if this road is not long and not easy for her, it doesn't matter. She is Gu Qiancheng, and she has nothing to do at the Immortal Gate.
She was defeated; she was not defeated in the active volcano; she was not defeated in the Fire City, she was not defeated when she met Jing Yan, and she will not be defeated now!
"Qin Jiyan, wait for me, wait for me to break into the palace, wait for me to find you. If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, you are finished!" We are finished too, and we can never go back...
