The portrait in Zhang Xiaobei's mind was the high-spirited scene when he returned to Zhao Guoyun City again.

But the moment he caught Long Qianyu's hand, the picture in his mind was instantly shattered like a phantom in water.

Slowly, a scene of the Qin State court being breached appeared in front of his eyes.

There were chaotic shouts all around, the soldiers who attacked the Qin Palace began to plunder everywhere, the flames of war were raging, the guards guarding the last line of defense of the palace fell in a pool of blood one by one, the palace maids and eunuchs fled in all directions, but many of the eunuchs who wanted to escape died under the sword and arrow, and those beautiful palace maids were plundered by the soldiers like the treasures in the Qin Palace.

Although Zhang Xiaobei did not participate in this war, he knew that it was a plunder carried out by Xiang Yu's army when it broke through the Qin court.

"Huh? What is this place?"

A familiar voice suddenly appeared in Zhang Xiaobei's head.

Zhang Xiaobei didn't know whether it was Long Qianyu's consciousness that entered his brain, or his consciousness that entered Long Qianyu's brain.

But he knew that now he and Long Qianyu could finally see the images of the historical past.

When the palace maids of the Qin court were in a hurry to escape, there was a thinly dressed palace maid walking in the corridor in a trance, her eyes were moist, and the tears on her face were clearly visible.

Seeing the originally prosperous court turn into its current dilapidated appearance, she couldn't help but hide her face with her hands, her shoulders twitching.

But when she raised her face, her beautiful face attracted the attention of the Chu soldiers like a treasure in a treasure house.

Several of the soldiers who first spotted her immediately stepped forward to arrest her, but the soldiers quarreled over her belonging.

She trembled with fear in front of the fierce soldiers.

That's right, it was here that Long Ji met his Qin E for the first time.

"Get out of the way, uncle, and I'll see what a pretty girl she is. A deep voice rang out behind the soldiers.

When the soldiers heard this, they all hurriedly let go of Qin E and took the initiative to get out of the way.

In the eyes of the Chu army, Long He is the god of war in the army second only to Xiang Yu, and his status is very high.

I saw Long He carrying a big knife on his shoulder, striding towards Qin E, the knife in his hand was still dripping blood.

Zhang Xiaobei looked at the rough and domineering Long And, and then thought about the current little white-faced Long Qianyu, they all have the same face, but they give people the feeling that they are the same.

Long He walked up to Qin E and looked at the weak and tearful palace maid of the Qin Dynasty in front of her.

He untied the cloak on his shoulders and covered Qin E's body, then lowered his body and picked her up with his left hand.

Turning to the Chu soldiers present, he shouted: "The Qin Dynasty is full of treasures, but this is enough for me!"

Long Ji said as he held Qin E in his left hand, and slowly walked down from the top of the stairs with a big knife in his right hand.

What he wants is Qin E's treasure.

Outside the Afang Palace, Long He put down Qin E in his hand.

"When you leave here, you are an ordinary person, and you are free again. Long said.

Qin E was very surprised, and even a little overwhelmed, she thought that she would become a plaything of Chu Jun, but she didn't expect the other party to let her go.

She took off the cloak she had draped over her body and handed it back to Long Ji, who tied it to the handle of his sword.

"There are so many innocent palace maids and attendants in the palace, why did you only save me. Qin E couldn't help but ask.

"Don't ask so much, I'll let you go, and you'll go. Long Ji said impatiently.

Then he turned around and approached the gate of the palace.

Qin E clenched her fists, bit her lip, and seemed to muster up a lot of courage to shout behind him: "That...... Can you please save the other palace maids again, they are all innocent, they are not goods, they are not your trophies. ”

Long He suddenly turned around, stepped forward and hugged Qin E, "Since you miss your palace maids so much, then go back with me." ”

Qin E didn't struggle anymore, nor did she cry, when Afang Palace was breached, she knew that the rest of her life would be trampled on like mustard.

The gears of history continue to roll forward.

On the outskirts of Xianyang.

Qin E walked to a willow tree in purple clothes and walked on the grass. In the deep locked palace, she had forgotten how long it had been since she had breathed such a comfortable breath of spring.

Long Ji was by her side, but this time he was carrying a guqin instead of a big knife on his shoulder.

"Thank you for bringing me here. Qin E said a little shyly.

She was grateful to Long He from the bottom of her heart, and Long He still respected her and treated her with courtesy after taking her back to the army. Instead of treating her as a male plaything.

"Ahem. Long coughed dryly and said, "I didn't bring you here for nothing, you have to play the piano for me." ”

After Long He finished speaking, he placed the guqin next to Qin E's feet.

"It turns out that General Long also likes to listen to the piano. Qin E smiled.

"When...... Of course, as a general, I need to cultivate my sentiments occasionally. Long Ji said, of course he was lying, he didn't like to listen to the piano, but he liked to watch the piano and watch Qin E play the piano.

Qin E's good at the piano has long been known to everyone in the Qin court, and she has also played the piano in front of the palace many times.

Qin E stroked the piano with both hands, and under the willow trees on this green grass, she played a song "Drunken Moon Lake".

The wind stops.

Qin E bowed her head to play the piano, and Long He looked at her quietly.

Long Qianyu was also looking at her.

Isn't she the woman in costume I often dreamed of not long ago?

The same face, the same clothes, the same scenery, all under the willow tree stroked the harp.

Long Qianyu remembered the name, 'Qin E'.

When the music of "Drunken Moon Lake" stopped, the spring breeze started again, blowing Qin E's clothes.

"Xiang Yu is going to move the capital to Pengcheng. Long Ji said, "I will leave Xianyang with him in two days, will you leave with me?"

Qin E was silent.

The wind was loud, didn't she hear it?

Qin E continued to be silent, but Long Ji didn't have the courage to ask a second time.

Long Ji got up and said, "Go back, it's windy here." ”

Qin E was still silent, and after a long time, she said, "I'll go to Pengcheng with you." ”

History continues to move forward.

Darkness hung over a barracks tent.

The night was peaceful, and there was a brazier stand between each tent, but the light of the brazier could not tear a small hole in the night.

Qin E sat restlessly in a marching tent, chanting words in her mouth, she was praying, she was begging for the blessings of all the gods, even if she had never believed in gods and Buddhas.

She doesn't ask for the dragon to be defeated and return, she only wants the dragon to come back alive.

Suddenly, without warning, it rained heavily, and her heart beat inexplicably, and she feared that any sudden change would be a prelude to bad news.

The sound of horses riding came from outside the tent.

They're back!

Qin E ignored the heavy rain outside and rushed out of the tent.

Outside the tent, Qin E saw Long Ji's lieutenant general, but he didn't see Long Ji.

The lieutenant general was scarred, holding a red cloak in both hands, and immediately knelt down when he saw Qin E.

At the moment when he knelt down, Qin E also knelt down, like a kite with a suddenly broken string, she looked at the familiar red cloak and cried heartbreakingly. Her shouting finally tore a hole in the night.

The night clears and the picture shifts to the rising sun.

The light of the sun reflects the surface of the lake red.

Qin E slowly walked into the lake with the red cloak in her hand, but after her feet entered the water, every step she took seemed to be extremely difficult.

With tears on her face, she walked towards the center of the lake without flinching, until she could no longer be seen above the lake, only the ripples in circles.

As the sun continued to rise, the calm surface of the lake could not even see the ripples.
