Chapter 66 One Man and One Horse
Qin Liusu looked at the dim stars outside the window, and with a strong sense of foreboding, he asked Qing Ming to immediately fly a pigeon and pass the book to Qin Liumo. Qin Liumo received the information and casually lit the note on the candle, and since then those Fang Tian painting halberds that are not his own have been carefully wiped.
Qin Liumo looked at the neatly stacked white armor on the bed. Qin Liumo stroked the finely made armor with his hand, and every frame and line had the breath of his mother, and his mother's teachings when he was a child were still vivid. This time, he must have killed Bai Yalian, the demon girl who bewitched the emperor, and did the right thing for heaven.
Qin Liusu sat on the bed and looked out the window, seeing the shadows of the trees and the gentle breeze. It has been nearly three or four months since she came to this palace, from the cold winter to the sunny spring, she has developed the habit of looking out the window, thinking about the birds trapped in the cage, and the vast blue sky outside the cage.
"Mother, your armor is here!" Qing Ming took out Qin Liusu's armor and said to Qin Liusu.
Qin Liusu looked at the exquisitely crafted red armor, and every inch of that armor had Xiao Yun's sweat and blood. There are a lot of patches on the armor, which is Xiao Yun's battle, just the traces left by the sword on the armor, and each patch represents Xiao Yun's former great military exploits.
Qin Liumo clenched his armor tightly and said, "I must not disgrace the Qin family and my mother!" β
Qin Liumo wore a white robe and armor through the mountain, which fit very well. The handsome and upright figure of the young man is set off flawlessly.
Qin Liumo put on the red robe armor left by Xiao Yun, Qin Liumo inherited Xiao Yun's perfect figure, this armor was like a tailor-made suit for Qin Liusu, it fit like that.

Chu Juechen, who was far away in Lin County, helped the drunk Sui Liming to the room and looked towards the capital far in the south.
There are people closest to him in that place, and he doesn't know what the situation in the capital is like at this time, and now Chu Juechen really imagines that Sui Liming will fly back to the capital directly like that day, but now Chu Juechen can't get any news, so he can only be in a hurry.
"Third Highness!" I don't know when Yuan Hao came to Chu Juechen's side, "There will be something to ask at the end." β
"What?" Chu Jiechen looked at Yuan Hao in front of him, thinking that this person fought bravely in this battle and killed countless enemies.
"The last general knows that His Royal Highness, why does the Third Highness know that the Northern Desert will retreat?" Yuan Hao asked.
Chu Juechen looked at Yuan Hao, and didn't know what to say for a while, he couldn't tell anyone when the queen's matter had not broken out, so as not to make himself passive.
"A few days ago, I dreamed that an immortal descended from the sky and told me that in the next few days, Bei Haoming would definitely retire. The king thought that there must be something strange in this dream, so he believed it. Chu Juechen joked.
When Yuan Hao heard this, he thought of various folk legends about Chu Juechen, and there must be a connection between them. Could it be that Chu Juechen is the Son of Heaven? Got the help of the immortals? Yuan Hao thought to himself.
So Yuan Hao suddenly used his two knees to kneel directly in front of Chu Juechen, and said, "Congratulations to the Third Highness, congratulations to the Third Highness." This means that you are a sign of the future Son of Heaven! β
Yuan Hao didn't care if it was true or not, so he went to shoot Chu Juechen's fart. If Chu Juechen really became the emperor, then he Yuan Hao would also ascend to heaven, if he didn't sit on the throne, then he would not lose a relationship with the Third Highness.
Although Chu Jiechen drank wine, he was still very careful when he heard this sensitive topic, and said angrily: "You can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing!" It's going to kill your head! β
Yuan Hao heard Chu Juechen's tone with anger, and immediately knelt down and said, "My subordinates know their mistakes!" The subordinates just felt that the Third Highness had made great contributions to the prosperity of Daqi, and it was not impossible to inherit the throne. β
"It's not something you should pay attention to, no matter who is on the throne, you just need to fight to the death for Daqi." Chu Juechen continued, "This king sees that you have fought well in this counterattack, and it just so happens that the general soldier of Lin County sacrificed his life for the country, and I think you can fill the vacant position of the general soldier!" β
"My subordinates have thanked Your Highness. If the Third Highness has something to use in the future, I am afraid of Yuan Hao, and I, Yuan Hao, will definitely go to the soup and fight the fire. Yuan Hao knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to Chu Juechen.
"Alright, you go down! This king has something to think about. Sui Liming said.
"That subordinate has retired!"
After Yuan Hao left, Chu Juechen looked at the capital in the south in a daze. This is not the first time that Chu Juechen has led his troops to fight abroad, but he has never missed the capital so much before.
"Maybe it's because of her!" Chu Juechen shook his head with a wry smile and said to himself.

Chu Qi Palace Dormitory.
"Tell the emperor, the fourth highness has something important to ask to see." The father-in-law outside the door said to Chu Qigong carefully, afraid that he would accidentally provoke Chu Qigong.
Chu Qigong looked like he hadn't woken up yet, looking at the sky outside the window, this matter should be around the time: "When will you tell me so late?" β
"His Royal Highness didn't say it, he just said that he had something important to look for you." The father-in-law returned to the road.
Chu Qigong had no choice but to say scoundrelly: "Dress for me." β
"Son-in-law, see father." Chu Lian saw Chu Qigong walking out of the room while sorting out his clothes, and immediately knelt down and saluted.
"No need to be polite! What is the matter with Lian'er looking for me so late? Chu Qigong yawned as he spoke.
"Erchen got the news that someone is going to assassinate his father tonight." Chu Lian said.
"Assassinate me?" Chu Qigong said with some disbelief, "My bedroom is surrounded by water, who can enter?" Chu'er is too worried! β
"Father, this news is absolutely true! Father, you must be careful! Chu Lian said with great certainty.
When Chu Lian was talking, he only heard a commotion outside.
"What's going on out there? Why is it so noisy? Chu Qigong asked.
"There are assassins out there! I'm afraid the Royal Forest Army can't resist it! Seeing a wounded Imperial Forest soldier outside, he came in and said, "Your Majesty, hurry up and hide in the secret passage!" β
"Nonsense!" Chu Jiechen slapped the table and said, "How can the great Qi monarch be afraid of a few little thieves? Take my sword. β
"Father, you'd better go and hide!" Chu Lian said in a pleading tone.
"If you want to hide, I won't go!" Chu Qigong directly rejected Chu Lian, and instead said to the Imperial Forest Army soldier, "Quickly send the Imperial Forest Army to block them." β
"Your Majesty, there are no more soldiers to send!" The soldier replied, "Most of the Imperial Guards have been sent by the Emperor to rescue His Royal Highness, but there is no news yet. β
"There are a large number of these assassins, and they are well organized, fierce in attack, and strong in combat, I'm afraid the Royal Forest Army will not be able to withstand it!" The wounded soldier said.
"Can you tell who it is?" Chu Juechen asked.
"Weichen doesn't know, but they all have tattoos of this wolf on their faces."
"Got a wolf tattoo on your face?" When Chu Qigong was conquering the Liao State, he encountered such an army, "The Liao State Wolves? β
Speaking of Liao, Chu Jiechen glanced at Chu Lian. Chu Lian turned his face away with a weak heart.
"I have also experienced all kinds of big battles back then, and now I haven't fought in many years. It just so happens that my hands are itchy today, and I just killed a few Liao people today to sacrifice my sword. β
In Chaoyang Palace, Qin Liumo was dressed in military uniform.
"Senior sister, why is it so noisy outside? Why do you wear a military uniform? Gu Ruoyu asked while rubbing her eyes that hadn't been fully opened.
"You don't have to worry about this! You quickly return to the Qin family now to protect my father. "Qin Liusu is most worried about Qin Zhengyang's safety now, I don't know what the queen means by today's words, and according to the plan, Qin Liumo will take the Qin family's secret guards into the palace to protect Chu Qi Palace. Then the Qin Mansion will not have any guarantees.
"Okay, I'll go." Gu Ruoyu saw Qin Liusu's anxious tone, and said naughtily.
"Qingming, you and I will protect the emperor together, and everyone else will find a place to hide. Do you get it? Qin Liusu ordered.
"Understood!" Qingming and the others replied in unison.
"It's just β’β’β’β’β’β’," Qingming said in a huff, "can you just let me change my clothes?" The slave didn't want to reveal her identity so early. β
"Go!" Qin Liumo said to Qing Ming.
In the Qin Mansion, Qin Gu, the retainer next to Qin Liumo, said: "The news from the palace is that the wolves have approached the palace and are attacking the emperor's bedroom. The gates of the capital were also fiercely attacked. β
"Qin Gu, you take three hundred Qin family secret guards to the palace to intercept them, and try to delay as much time as possible. Mobilize all the forces you can mobilize to the gates and block them. β
"What about the general?" Qin Advisor said.
Qin Liumo wiped his brand-new armor and said, "I'll go to Ziqianmen!" β
Among the queens, the two palace gates can lead to the dormitory of Chu Qi Palace, one is the Chiqian Gate, and the other is the Ziqian Gate.
"Ziqianmen?" Qin Gu said in surprise, "The general is going alone?" β
"Yes, I'm going alone. You stopped the wolves heading to the emperor's bedroom in front of the Chiqian Gate. Qin Liusu said.
"But general, you are the only one who goes to your subordinatesβ’β’β’β’β’β’" Qin Gu's words were interrupted by Qin Liumo before he could finish speaking.
"There is nothing to do, there are not enough troops in the first place, and these two places must withstand it." Qin Liusu said without any objections, "Go ahead and prepare!" You have to fight quickly and quickly, or you will have to collect my body. β
"The subordinates receive orders, and the general must take care!" After Qin Gu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Qin Liumo picked up the helmet placed on the table and gently put it on his head, picking up the pure silver Fang Tian painting halberd to make a room.
Outside the room, there was a mount that had been fighting with him for many years, and Qin Liumo patted it on the head and said, "Old man, we are going to the battlefield again." β
Qin Liumo turned over and got on his horse, and galloped towards the palace with one person and one horse, his pure white cloak hunting in the wind.
Qin Liumo galloped all the way, and saw that the palace was full of corpses, without the solemnity of the palace, and it was a bit like a meat grinder.
In front of Ziqianmen, the battle between the Royal Forest Army and the Wolves was very fierce, but the Royal Forest Army was the opponent of the Wolves. Seeing a wolf team member fall with a knife in his hand, the last Royal Forest soldier sacrificed his life for the country.
"Brothers, let's rush in, let's chop Chu Qigong into meat sauce, and everyone can be sealed and enjoy endless glory and wealth. Hahahaβ’β’β’β’β’β’" one of the Wolves leaders laughed loudly.
"Hahahaβ’β’β’β’β’β’" The Wolves players laughed too.
Just as the wolf team was about to rush in from the Ziqian Gate, a Fang Tian Painting Halberd suddenly flew over and crossed in front of them.
Looking in the direction where Fang Tian's halberd flew from, he saw a white-robed young general, riding out of their horses and walking over.
The man and the horse were very laid-back, and they didn't take them seriously at all.
