Chapter 322 Which No. 1 Assassin?
There is silence around me, only the sound of the wind.
Shi Li was not in a hurry and waited quietly for Qi Yong to make a decision.
He had followed Prince Guangyong since he was a child, and was influenced by him. He was the most suitable person to take over the Liaocheng Army.
Before, Shi Li was wavering between him and Sun Jianchen, worried that he was too young and inexperienced.
However, what happened to Sun Jianchen and his son this time made her completely give up the idea of handing the tiger talisman to Sun Jianchen.
Therefore, Qi Yong is the only choice.
No one else can convince the public except him.
But as long as there are live broadcast rooms and barrages, the atmosphere will never be serious.
[Anchor: I said, I am just a salted fish, not stupid~]
[I just like the host to be sober and self-aware! ]
[So, the anchor really doesn't want to be the queen herself? You can have three thousand beauties in your harem~]
[The guy upstairs, don't sleep too deeply tonight, okay? 】
Shi Li felt helpless in the face of the nonsensical comments. She secretly rolled her eyes and continued to wait patiently for Qi Yong's decision.
If that still doesn't work, she will have to consider entrusting the soldiers of Liaocheng to the rebel army in Yongzhou.
Anyway, the Dongwei Imperial Capital is rotten to the core, so it wouldn’t be bad to change its owner.
"My Lord, I will fulfill my mission."
Qi Yong finally made up his mind. He decisively lifted his clothes, knelt on one knee solemnly, and looked up at Shi Li.
"I swear on my life that I will never let down the spirit of King Guangyong in heaven, nor the soldiers of Liaocheng!"
Shi Li got a satisfactory answer and smiled with satisfaction.
"In that case, I'll give you a month. After a month, present the tiger talisman with both hands."
During this month, Qi Yong had to fight against the imperial capital army and suppress the father and son of the Sun family. The burden was heavier than he could imagine.
But if he can't even do these, there is no way the tiger talisman of Liaocheng will be handed over to him.
Qi Yong understood this principle and nodded without hesitation, saying, "I understand. Please take care of yourself, my lady."
Before leaving, Qi Yong paused slightly and looked back at the girl standing in the courtyard.
Her eyes and brows are clear and peaceful, and her wide sleeves flutter in the wind like ripples on water, elegant and refined.
Now is not the time to talk about romance.
Qi Yong withdrew his gaze and left without looking back.
When Prince Guangyong was alive, he did train him, but he also had high hopes for Sun Zhaonan. However, Sun Zhaonan was more deeply influenced by Sun Jianchen, and gradually grew up to be a flatterer with vain ambitions.
And he would never let down King Guangyong who had given him a new life.
After seeing Qi Yong off, Shi Li did not leave immediately, but continued to stand in the courtyard until Fu Jin came over.
"Princess, has Deputy General Qi left?" Fu Jin, who was standing nearby, asked curiously and cautiously.
Shi Li heard the voice and glanced at her with a half-smile, "Hmm? Are you disappointed?"
Fu Jin's face turned pale, showing a trace of panic, and then she forced a smile, "What is the princess talking about?"
"Are you curious about what I just said to Qi Yong?"
Shi Li raised her hand and stroked the pearl on her ear. She said something that frightened Fu Jin in a casual tone, "Then you can find a chance to pass it to Vice General Sun?"
Fu Jin stood there blankly, unable to utter a word.
When Shi Li called out "Deputy General Sun", she knew it was over.
"Fujin, I don't like being monitored. Please go away." Shi Li was too lazy to say more. Fujin had been with her for a while, but apart from revealing her information, she hadn't done anything else. She didn't want to make a fuss about it.
When Fu Jin first came to her, she thought that she was really someone Qi Yong had planted by his side.
But after what happened yesterday, the father and son of the Sun family arrived faster than Qi Yong, and Shi Li knew that she was wrong.
Then he thought about it carefully again, Fu Jin had spoken for Sun Zhaonan many times before without leaving any trace, and her identity was already very obvious.
If Sun Jianchen had put all his thoughts into marching and fighting, the Liaocheng army might have been able to fight all the way to the imperial capital.
