Chapter 314 Which No. 1 Assassin?

Chapter 314 Which No. 1 Assassin?

There was singing and dancing in the city behind, and even a grand banquet was held.

Meanwhile, the Liaocheng army led by Sun Jianchen and Qi Yong had already been fighting with the army sent from the imperial capital in Chiye, and the battle was fierce.

The general sent by the imperial capital had a grudge against King Guangyong before. When the two armies fought, the general said a lot of mocking and belittling words to King Guangyong, which directly angered Qi Yong and made him put on his armor and go to the battlefield in person.

Although Qi Yong was better at writing strategies, he was decisive on the battlefield. He was invincible in killing generals and enemies, which stunned many people who had always had a stereotyped impression of him.

In the end, Qi Yong even rode alone into the enemy's rear and directly beheaded the general.

The blood splattered on the three-inch red tasseled spear, making countless enemies tremble in fear.

The young man stood on his horse, looking around coldly with a solemn expression.

"No one can belittle King Guangyong in front of me."

When many soldiers saw this, they recalled King Guangyong's previous kindness and respect for them, and fought even more fiercely.

In this battle, the Liaocheng army gained great momentum and the imperial capital was defeated.

When the news reached Shi Li, she was sitting by the window flipping through a book and was slightly stunned.

According to the original owner's memory, her impression of Qi Yong was also a weak scholar, but she didn't expect him to be so brave on the battlefield.

"I heard that General Sun was no less capable and was defeating the enemy at every turn." Fu Jin couldn't help but say with a smile.

She grew up in Liaocheng, so was naturally closer to the Liaocheng army. When she heard about the victory, she was even happier than Shi Li.

Shi Li nodded slightly and looked out the window.

In late autumn and early winter, all the leaves have fallen, leaving only bare tree trunks.

Ever since she came back from the last banquet, the city lord has sent people to deliver invitations to her every two or three days.

She was so annoyed that she finally sent a message to the city lord, asking him to use the money from the banquet to help the refugees in the city. Only then did she reluctantly let the city lord stop.

However, the city lord would occasionally send some rare clothes and jewelry, or unusual fruits and dishes.

In the evening, the soldiers stationed outside came to report that the city lord had sent someone to deliver something.

Shi Li was completely helpless, and glanced at Fu Jin while pressing the scroll.

Fu Jin understood and hurried out to check, then came back soon with a strange expression on her face.

"Princess, the city lord is not sending anything this time... but a person."

Shi Li: ...

The city lord's thinking is really advanced as he sent someone to the princess so openly.

She felt like she was about to get overwhelmed, and stood up helplessly and walked out. When she looked outside, the ends of her eyebrows raised.

Haha, the one sent by the city lord was Xuanqing.

Is it true that there is no other handsome man in the city?

Shi Li couldn't help but secretly complain.

Of course, Xuanqing is not the only handsome man in the city, but the city lord still has some unrealistic hope for his son. Thinking that the good things should be kept in the family, and that those who are close to the water will get the moon first, he sent Xuanqing here.

Xuan Qing, who was washed clean and wearing a pure white robe, had a sullen face and said nothing. When he heard footsteps, he looked up and glanced at Shi Li.

The difference was that this time he didn't dare to turn his face away from Shi Li, looking dejected.

Shi Li guessed that he must have been severely taught a lesson by the city lord, or simply threatened by the city lord with Xiao Qingmei's safety, so he came to the door unwillingly.

But she is not a rag collector!

Shi Li tilted her head helplessly and pressed her temple, then said directly to Xuan Qing: "Go back and tell the city lord that if you think of any crooked ways again, you will be punished by military law. Don't send anything to this princess anymore."

Is this clear enough this time?

Shi Li thought so, but the love-brained person always thinks differently from her.

She thought Xuan Qing would be pardoned, but he turned out to be humiliated, staring at her with wide eyes and accusing her, "I'm already here, why are you humiliating me like this!"

Shi Li really couldn't help it, and without caring about her image at all, she rolled her eyes.

"You are not so ignorant that you think I am attracted to you, are you? You think too much. Back off."

She said it too bluntly.

Xuan Qing, who had a high opinion of himself, obviously couldn't accept it. His handsome face turned red and white, and finally he stomped his feet and turned away.

Like a bullied young wife.

When he returned, the city lord was still in his mansion dreaming of becoming the princess's father-in-law.

I never expected that Xuanqing would be returned so quickly, and I was also warned by Shi Li.

Before he could fully recover, he unexpectedly received a death threat at night.
