My eyesight is not very good, but I also recognize that it is the invincible elite grassland cavalry on the battlefield and the Iron Cavalry founded by the Iron Cavalry King!

More than twenty of us stood on this side, watching the vast cavalry team rushing towards us, and the smoke and dust behind us covered the sky and the sun, and we felt the illusion that we were going to be swallowed by them.

Li'er also subconsciously snatched my arm and held it tightly.

I comforted her and gently touched her intention. When I raised my head, the group of imposing iron cavalry was approaching and was almost about to hit us. The Eighteen Cavalrymen of Anyang hurriedly stepped forward and formed a protective semicircular formation in front of us, protecting us tightly in the center.

After a few strokes, the knife was unsheathed, and the bright blade light illuminated my eyes.

Finally, the horse hooves of the Iron Cavalry stopped less than meter away from them, and the smoke and dust aroused hit us in the face.

The leader of the Eighteen Anyang Cavalry stood in front and shouted loudly: "Who is it?"

"Hmph, I'm afraid you shouldn't ask us this!"

The leader of the cavalry slowly rode his horse forward, looked at the eighteen horses, and then looked at their horses.

These cavalrymen all seemed fierce and arrogant. I was vaguely worried that there would be a conflict between the two sides, but fortunately, these people were not saying anything, but walked straight to us and bowed to Pei Yuanxiu and bowed to him: "Greetings to the Crown Prince."

“…!”

The others hadn't spoken yet, but I immediately felt that Liu Qinghan next to me frowned.

Pei Yuanxiu smiled slightly, without any objection, and said, "It seems that the prince already knows that I'm here."

"Yes. The prince specially sent us to come here and respectfully invite His Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness the Crown Princess."

This time, it was Li'er, who looked at me in a low voice and said, "Mom, what are they talking about?"

I touched the top of her head again and didn't say anything. Pei Yuanxiu had turned around and nodded at us. Everyone rode their horses together and followed the team of iron cavalry forward.

Liu Qinghan's horse was neither fast nor slow, so he walked beside us. Although I didn't turn to look at it, I could still feel the faint calmness that emanated from him.

Then, he turned his head and looked at me.

But our eyes were intertwined and we didn't say anything else. We rode our horses all the way, and after a cup of tea, we finally arrived at the city.

Wuwei is one of the four counties in Hexi and an important gateway to resist foreign invasions in ancient times. Therefore, the city towers here are built particularly tall and majestic. You can vaguely feel the majestic momentum of the past, which is as powerful as a tiger. When you enter the city, you will feel the simplicity and simplicity of this place. Businesses, farmers, and herdsmen have managed this northern border town lively and fulfilled.

There are no palaces or elegant gardens here. Under the gray sky, only a building is seen standing in the middle of the city.

The tall porch and corridor can even be passed by directly riding a horse. After we entered the gate, we got off the horse and saw a white figure standing on the long stairs, looking down at us.

The man was tall and tall, wearing a white dress like snow, but unlike Pei Yuanxiu's white dress, his clothes were tightly wrapped around his body, his broad belt was tightly tied, making him look wider and long legs, with an agility and grace of animals. The long laces fluttered in the wind, making a sound of rushing sound.

Although I was still far away, I recognized the eagle-like eyes and arrogant expression at a glance.

He couldn't help but gritted his teeth.

When Pei Yuanxiu saw him, a smile appeared on his face, and he slowly walked upwards and walked to him. The two of them looked at each other for a while, and finally Luo Shi spoke first: "Don't you be fine?"

Pei Yuanxiu smiled and said, "The prince is more energetic than before."

"How can you compare to you when you are full of energy?" He said: "You left Dongzhou alone, but now you are the lord of Jiangnan. I really didn't expect you to do it!"

Liu Qinghan and I, along with our accompanying servants and the Eighteen Anyang Cavalry, also slowly walked up. When we heard this, our steps stopped, Luo Shi turned his head and looked at me.

Looking at his sharp eyes, I couldn't help but tremble again.

The last time I saw him was seven or eight years ago.

He was still as strong and handsome as before, with the momentum of fighting against a hundred troops on the battlefield and sweeping away thousands of troops. Although there was a smile on his face, the smile seemed to be sharp with the sharpness of a sword, like a dormant leopard. Although it was leisurely and gorgeous, it hid bloodthirsty claws, which made people feel faintly shrunk just by looking at it.

As soon as I saw him, my face suddenly turned pale.

Many memories of the past, painful, sad, desperate, and even resentful, all rushed into my heart like a tide at this moment. I even had a feeling of fragility that could not bear those emotions. I gritted my teeth and looked at him so that I could not do anything.

He glanced at me and smiled lukewarmly: "It's been a long time."

I stared at him hard: "It's been a long time."

"I've always hoped you come."

"The prince wants to see me?"

"Someone wants to see you."

My heart suddenly stopped and beat, and subconsciously said, "Where is he?"

Luo Shi sneered, but did not answer my words. Instead, he turned his head and looked at the person who had been standing by me silently: "Who are you?"

My heart tightened again. I turned around and saw the face as cold as the mask under the half mask. With a hint of indifference, Liu Qinghan said calmly: "I'm just a follower."

Pei Yuanxiu glanced at us.

"Submit?" Luo Shi slowly walked to him, looking at him with a sharp look in his eyes, and then said, "Why haven't I heard of the saying that Zhongyuan has hired people with devastated faces as entourage?"

I hurriedly said, "But he is very capable."

"Can you do it?" Loch sneered: "Of course you do it."

“…”

"If you can't do it, how can you burn the emperor's palace?"

“…!”

"If you can't do it, how can you get the emperor's trust and guard Yangzhou?"

“…!”

"If you can't do it, why are you qualified to marry your eldest princess?"

Liu Qinghan and I were shocked and couldn't speak for a while.

Unexpectedly, Luo Shi knew everything!

How did he know?

Although the things that Liu Qinghan did are not a secret among us, they still whitewashed the past in the court. Pei Yuanhao suppressed the imperial edict, and even he himself didn't know that he was the one who did the Jixian Palace. Luo Shi was thousands of miles away and had so many estrangements from the court. How could he know so many things about Liu Qinghan?!

Can you still recognize him?

I felt a panic in my heart, but I had no time to think about it. I saw Liu Qinghan's hanging eyelashes tremble slightly, covering his black eyes. After a while, he raised his head and bowed respectfully to Luo Shi: "In the prefect of Yangzhou, Liu Qinghan, Prince Mu has been famous for a long time. I will be lucky to see him today."

Luo Shi suddenly cracked his mouth and started laughing.

His skin was dark, but his teeth were snow-white. With such a smile, there was no gentleness or pleasure at all, but instead he looked like a dormant leopard showing sharp teeth and fangs. He felt bloody all over the place.

"The Prime Minister of Yangzhou."

He repeated again, smilingly: "You know that I have been 'receiving for a long time'."

Liu Qinghan's face had always been heavy, and at this time, even his eyes were sunk.

Of course I have been acclaimed for a long time.

Perhaps in the past, Liu San, who was in Yangzhou, would not understand, but after being an official for so many years and even becoming the Minister of Revenue, Liu Qinghan naturally knew very well that the large amount of tax collected from Jiangnan every year had flowed to where the untold people in Jiangnan faced the loess and were facing the sky every day, not only because of hard work, but also because each of them carries a person, or even more people on the grassland, that makes Yangzhou people unable to stand up straight for generations.

Liu Qinghan once told me that he always felt that he had a responsibility to Jiangnan and the people in Jiangnan. Then he must now know more. If he wants to seek fair survival power for Jiangnan and the people in Jiangnan, then who is he going to face and who is he going to fight!

That's the person in front of you!

Luo Shi looked at him, and seemed to be very interested, with his eyes shining: "I am an unexpected surprise to see you here."

"Don't dare."

"Do you have anything else to say?"

As soon as these words were said, Liu Qinghan frowned slightly, and I also felt something was wrong. Before I could react, Luo Shi waved his hand and said, "Kill him."

…!

Everyone did not come to their senses at all. On the originally empty platform, dozens of warriors suddenly emerged from somewhere. They were as fierce as tigers and rushed over with fierce evil aura. The sword in their hands shone coldly and had already stabbed Liu Qinghan.

"ah--!"

When everyone was not aware of it, they suddenly heard a scream, but it was Li'er. She hugged Liu Qinghan's thighs tightly and screamed in shock: "Uncle San!"

Her voice woke me up suddenly and hurriedly stopped them: "No!"

Luo Shi was like he didn't see me at all, putting his hands behind his back and said coldly: "Your Highness, should you take good care of your woman?"

This incident was obviously beyond Pei Yuanxiu's expectations. He turned his head to look at me: "Qingying..."

"No, you can't hurt him!"

As I said, I looked at Pei Yuanxiu: "Yuanxiu, no! You can't let them hurt him!"

Actually, I don't need to argue about the details of this. He should have understood it completely. Looking at my anxious eyes, Yuan Xiu paused slightly, looked at Liu Qinghan again, then turned his head to Luo Shi and said, "Prince--"

Luo Shi said coldly: "Since I don't mind you bringing the officials of the Celestial Empire to him, don't mind what I will do to him."

But this time, I realized what the order of Prince Iron Salute is.

He stood there with his hands on his back and gave only this order. Although we blocked and distinguished, the people under his command seemed not to be affected by us at all. Although I was standing in front of Liu Qinghan, a warrior had already rushed up from behind, waved his steel knife, and chopped towards him without saying a word.
