Chapter 225: Murder
Shen Qingzhu gritted his teeth and galloped towards the steep slope.
Bai Qingyan, who was sitting on the horse, looked at the fierce horses of the Tiger Eagle Battalion and the dead soldiers of the Dong family rushing towards the mountain, pulling the reins and standing in the middle and bottom of the hillside like a needle in the sea.
On the high slope, a hundred arrows set off, flying from behind Bai Qingyan to the front, everywhere they went...... Xiliang soldiers screamed and fell.

Before Li Zhijie and his entourage arrived at Qiushan Pass, they heard the sound of shouting and killing in the city, which seemed to be bursting into the sky.
General Xiliang, who led the team in front, immediately ordered the team to stop advancing, and quickly ran to the carriage of Li Zhijie, shouting: "Lord Wang...... There seems to be a situation in the city! Please take someone to find out the situation later! โ
The team did not enter the city and suddenly stopped moving forward, Lu Tianzhuo sensed that something was wrong, and looked at Li Tianfu, who was already crying and asleep, opened the carriage curtain, and rode a horse in the direction of Li Zhijie's carriage: "Lord Wang! But something happened?! โ
Li Zhijie had already gotten out of the carriage when he heard that there was an accident in the city, and was about to go with the Xiliang Prison Army to check the situation, when he saw Lu Tianzhuo riding over, he turned over and said, "Let's go and see!" โ
As soon as the city gate opened, Li Zhijie, who had been trapped in the city and couldn't get out, hurriedly stepped forward: "Lord Wang, someone has robbed people!" โ
Li Zhijie's hand holding the reins tightened: "Who?!" โ
"Bai Jiajun, Tiger Eagle Battalion!"
"What about people?! Intercepted?! Li Zhijie's eyes widened, and the green tendons of the hand holding the reins were raised high.
This time, Li Zhijie did not use the Bai family in the peace talks, in order to use the Bai family as bait to kill Bai Qingyan, but if the Bai family was rescued or died, it would lose the meaning of the Bai family that he brought from afar.
"My subordinates don't know!" The dead soldier under Li Zhijie lowered his head and said, "It was Lord Yan Da who asked his subordinates to report to the prince, but ...... The gate of Akiyama Castle is not opened, and his subordinates ...... Didn't get out! โ
Lu Tianzhuo breathed heavily, and he didn't care about waiting for Li Zhijie's order, and rushed towards the inn where Bai Jiazi was being held.
Li Zhijie gritted his teeth and led his troops to hurry towards the inn.
Before he got closer, he saw the sky-high firelight, and the strong smell of blood rushed to his face, and the crossbowmen of the Xiliang soldiers squatted and knelt at the foot of the mountain, constantly shooting arrows in the direction of the high slope alternately.
Li Zhijie rushed to the bottom of the mountain, grabbed the reins, and stopped the fierce horse under his crotch with his hooves raised, kicking the horse's hooves back and forth as if intending to rush up the high slope, and fight to the death with the person who stood on the top of the horse.
He grabbed the reins and restrained the fierce horse under him, and his deep peach blossom eyes looked at the direction of the mountain and stared very widely, it turned out to be Bai Qingyan!
How did she know that Bai Jiazi was here?! How could she come to the rescue in person! And so fast!
When they were separated just now, he watched Bai Qingyan leave with the crown prince of the Jin Kingdom, how could she come to Qiushan Pass before him?!
Li Zhijie suddenly thought of the servant girl named Qianzhou, could it be that the servant girl was really the dark stake arranged by the Great Jin Dynasty in Xiliang?!
No...... Wrong!
Even if the servant girl is a secret stake, how would she know that he is hiding the Bai family? How do you know where Bai Jiazi is?! How could the prince of the Jin Kingdom let Bai Qingyan save the Bai family? It's good not to let people kill this son secretly!
Li Zhijie's heart was beating suddenly, and he seemed to feel that Bai Qingyan's eyes were looking at him, indifferent and murderous.
Thinking of the injuries on Xiao Jiu's body, Bai Qingyan hated to break Li Zhijie's body into ten thousand pieces, and return the humiliation and torture that Li Zhijie brought to Xiao Jiu a hundred times.
Under the bright full moon, Bai Qingyan, who was clear and proud, pointed in the direction of Li Zhijie with a sun-shooting bow, although there were no arrows...... But like the murderous aura of Hell Shura coming like a breaking wind, Li Zhijie's mount spirit was sensitive to the cold killing intent, and he took two steps back.
Bai Jinzhi sat behind Bai Qingyan, holding Bai Qingyan's waist with both hands, looking at the Xiliang soldiers who were vain releasing arrows at the foot of the mountain, and Li Zhijie, the king of Xiliang Yan, who had galloped to the foot of the mountain, she said: "Eldest sister, let's go!" โ
Hearing Xiao Si's voice and thinking of Xiao Si's injuries, she withdrew her sun-shooting bow and pulled the reins hard......
Li Zhijie's chest rose and fell violently, and he could only watch Bai Qingyan sit down, neigh, and hoof away.
Lu Tianzhuo gritted his teeth and turned the horse's head: "Lord Wang!" Send me a hundred troops, and I'll chase them! โ
Li Zhijie closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, his peach blossom eyes were calm and gloomy: "Even if you catch up, you won't be able to kill Bai Qingyan, it's just to send more heads to Bai Qingyan!" ...... You have to calm down, you must know that this king wants to kill this Bai Qingyan more than you now, and this woman stays...... In the future, if the two countries go to war, it will be a great disaster for Xiliang! โ
Lu Tianzhuo's heart was pounding, and he turned his head and looked at the high slope: "But ......"
"Hunting and killing! Gotta do it another way! Li Zhijie's face was pale, looking at the corpses that had fallen to the ground, among them were ordinary dead soldiers of the Jin Kingdom and people from the Tiger Eagle Battalion, he squinted his eyes and said, "I don't believe it, Bai Qingyan dared to say to the prince of the Jin Kingdom about saving the Bai family!" She must have brought someone with her! Pack up the corpses of these dead soldiers of the Jin Kingdom and the Tiger Eagle Battalion! Right now...... The king took these corpses and went to ask the prince of Jin for an explanation. โ
With that, Li Zhijie bent down and pulled out the short knife used by the Tiger Eagle Battalion from the corpse of a Xiliang soldier, and stabbed it hard into his shoulder.
"Lord Wang!"
"Lord Wang!"
The soldiers of Xiliang were shocked.
Li Zhijie gritted his teeth and pulled out a sharp blade and handed it to Lu Tianzhuo, raised his hand to cover the wound, blood gushed out from his fingers, and the pain made his forehead bruise.
"Pass on the military doctor! Doctor! โ
Li Zhijie gritted his teeth and said coldly to Lu Tianzhuo: "Lift the corpses of these Jin soldiers and follow me to Youhua Dao!" Ask Bai Qingyan and the Tiger Eagle Battalion of the Bai Family Army what their intention was to assassinate this king after the peace talks and alliance were signed! โ
He seized and secretly hid the matter of the Bai family, since he didn't say anything about the peace talks, he can't say it for a while! So Bai Qingyan didn't come to Qiushan Pass to save people, why did he come? I can only come to assassinate him...... The Festival of the King of the West Liangyan!
As soon as the peace talks between the two countries were signed, the people of the Tiger Eagle Battalion of the Baijia Army of the Jin State secretly attacked Qiushan Pass at night and assassinated the King of Xiliangyan, what would the prince of the Jin Kingdom think when he found out? !
The trust between the monarchs and ministers of the Jin State was already in danger, and the Jin royal family had always been on guard against the Bai family.
Don't you think that Bai Qingyan is afraid that he will be confiscated and lose his military power, so he intends to provoke another war between the two countries?
Even if the crown prince of the Jin Kingdom does not deal with Bai Qingyan today, he will bury a thorn in the heart of the Jin royal family, so that the royal family of the Jin Kingdom knows that she Bai Qingyan only has 10,000 Bai family troops left, and she dares to carry the prince of the Jin Kingdom on her back...... Under the eyes of the prince of the Jin Kingdom, he mobilized the Bai family army to assassinate the Prince of Xiliang, who had signed a peace alliance with the Great Jin! Tomorrow, the Bai family's army will grow, and she will dare to do what the royal family of the Jin Kingdom is most afraid of.
