Chapter 52: Xiangfan

As the ships moved forward, the ships belonging to the Xiangfan sailors gave way one after another, allowing the ships to cross through them.

Jiang Xi and Yu Youwei looked around with slightly vigilant eyes, but they didn't have any fear.

Cao Changqing's eyes were indifferent, but when he saw this scene, he seemed to think of something, and his expression was faintly sad.

After Wang Yangming received the order to guard Xiangfan City, he did everything he could to build Xiangfan City without leakage and guard the city for Western Chu for ten years.

Even, after the fall of Western Chu and Western Shu, Wang Yangming refused to surrender.

On the day of the destruction of the once huge city, only 20,000 people were left who were dying, and they had almost become crazy people.

The price paid was so heavy that even when he heard it, he trembled a little.

It didn't take long for the ship to dock, and on the shore, there were still about 5,000 soldiers and horses waiting for them.

Li Chengqian's eyes were shining, he wrapped his arms around Jiang Xi with one hand and Yu Youwei with the other, and floated down from the boat and stood on the shore.

Hu Kui also jumped down and yelled at the thousands of soldiers and horses.

If it really started, Hu Kui would obviously not be able to beat the five thousand Xiangfan elites, but this beast roar also made many people's hearts tremble.

The solemn military aura instantly faded a lot.

And after Cao Changqing got off the boat, Meng Yan also carried the depressed Zhao Xun and landed on the shore.

Now that he has made a choice, it is not his character to look forward and look backwards, and the most important thing is that the shadow that Li Chengqian brought to him that day was too terrifying.

Even with thousands of soldiers and horses in front of him, he didn't dare to give birth to two hearts at all.

Of course, he also knew that since he had rebelled, even if he rebelled at the moment, Zhao Heng, the king of Jing'an, would never let him go.

On the contrary, if he shows enough loyalty.

Li Chengqian will naturally keep him safe.

Even if Li Chengqian never promised him anything, the momentum of such a master when he made a move had already revealed his arrogant and lonely heart.

It is impossible for such a master to be like an ordinary reader, go back on his word and easily change his ways.

To put it simply, his confidence in Li Chengqian, who has not been with him for a long time, is much greater than that of Zhao Heng, the powerful King of Jing'an.

Among the thousands of soldiers and horses, a carriage came slowly.

Under the service of his subordinates, Zhao Heng got down from the carriage, and his eyes swept over Zhao Xun's body first.

Seeing that Zhao Xun had no demeanor at this moment, and was being held in his hand, his eyes couldn't help but be cold.

In particular, the person carrying Zhao Xun was also a guest of his palace.

This move is undoubtedly a slap in the face.

And he is also very clear about the purpose of what this person is doing.

He didn't understand, what kind of charm did these seven princes have, which could make a first-class master die so far?

Then, his gaze fell on the young man who was in the center of several people.

Seeing this person's appearance, he also sighed lightly in his heart, as rumored, he was handsome and extraordinary.

He stepped forward slowly and said in a warm tone, "Cheng Qian, you have come from afar, it's really hard."

According to his seniority, he can be said to be Li Chengqian's own uncle, and it is not an exaggeration to call him Chengqian, but it is a sign of closeness.

Of course, Li Chengqian knew that his body was born from heaven and earth, although he had the identity of the seventh prince, he did not have the blood of the royal family surnamed Zhao, and he naturally did not recognize the so-called uncle.

He looked at Zhao Heng lightly, his gaze swept over the four people beside Zhao Heng and the thousands of soldiers and horses not far away.

"It's not a blessing, but the prince came to meet me with such a battle, I'm afraid it's a bit of a waste of money and labor."

Four people and one product, thousands of elites, not to mention a celestial phenomenon, even ordinary land immortals, but also to avoid their edge.

Zhao Heng smiled, glanced at Jiang Ji and Yu Youwei, who were held in Li Chengqian's arms, changed the topic, and said, "The virtuous nephew is very blessed, and he can have such a beauty by his side."

He naturally knows that since

His son fell here because of these two women.

Jiang Xi's face is still slightly red, although she has already set her name, but when she goes on a blind date, she always can't help but feel shy.

At this moment, hearing what Zhao Heng said, Jiang Xi glanced at this King Jing'an with a little disgust.

Compared with Zhao Heng, the king of Jing'an, who has a honey sword and hides a knife in his smile, Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang, who looks so rough and a little raunchy, looks much more pleasing to the eye.

But she also knew the severity, and although she was disgusted, she didn't say anything.

Li Chengqian glanced at Jiang Heng as if he was aware of it, looked at Zhao Heng and said a little coldly: "Since the prince doesn't like to laugh, don't be coy here, besides, how about my woman, the prince still shouldn't be easy to put his beak."

Zhao Heng's eyes were slightly cold, and his face was faintly a little blue, in front of the five thousand elites under his command, did this Li Chengqian really dare to be so rampant?

However, the more powerful Li Chengqian appeared, the more he did not dare to act rashly.

Even though there were four first-class masters around him and five thousand Xiangfancheng elites behind him, he was a little timid.

The smile faded, but it still looked extremely kind, and even more polite.

"What the virtuous nephew said is that Uncle Wang took the liberty of it."

His self-directed performance made Zhao Xun, who was full of anticipation, feel that the filter was broken.

In his heart, his father has always been the same, wise as the sea, and powerful and scheming.

It is an existence that he admires and fears.

However, at this moment, he realized that his father was not as majestic as he really was.

And now, a virtuous nephew also made him realize that Li Chengqian seems to be also a member of the royal family.

Thinking of the word Cheng Qian that Zhao Heng called before, he finally realized.

It turned out that the person who captured him was the Seventh Prince who was famous not long ago because of his marriage to Bei Liang, and he became a vassal king at a young age.

For a while, he seemed to understand some of Zhao Heng's actions.

At this time, Zhao Heng seemed to have noticed Zhao Xun, and said in a deliberate tone: "Virtuous nephew, Xiao'er is young and ignorant, he may have offended you, Uncle Wang is willing to pay enough price, and please open up and forgive Xiao'er for your offense."

Li Chengqian looked at Zhao Heng, his eyes moved slightly, and he said lightly, "The price?"

Zhao Heng clapped his hands, and immediately a waiter stepped forward with the same treasure behind him.

He said, "These are all rare treasures that Uncle Wang has collected over the years, which are not only extraordinary, but also hard to find."

Cao Changqing also looked at some kind of open treasure box and whispered, "Millennial chalcedony."

With the thousand-year-old chalcedony as the guide, supplemented by several precious medicinal materials, it can achieve the effect of eternal youth.

When Jiang Xi's mother was still alive, he searched for this thing in the world.

But before it was found, a war broke out to destroy the country.

I didn't expect to see this thing here today.

And this thousand-year-old chalcedony is only one of these dozens of treasures.

Obviously, the price paid by Zhao Heng is already high.

And that's not all.

Zhao Heng took out another twenty-one deeds.

"In the drunken flower building in Xiangfan City, in addition to the world-famous Li Baishi, there are also twenty beauties of different colors, waiting for their nephews."

In life, you either seek wealth, power, or sex.

He can't give power, but the word wealth is also a poison that destroys the soul and bones.

Especially after he learned of Yu Youwei's existence, he spent a huge price to collect twenty beauties who hardly belonged to Yu Youwei, and even had the unexpected gain of Li Baishi.

He believed that after he took out this, Li Chengqian would not refuse, and there was no reason to refuse.

After all, Yu Youwei was originally a pawn that he raised behind the scenes, looking for opportunities to test and assassinate Xu Fengnian, since Yu Youwei could be protected from Bei Liang by the other party, his move could naturally be regarded as his favor.

And Li Cheng

In fact, he didn't care much about these rare treasures, and those so-called beauties were even more unlikely to be able to get into his eyes.

It was Li Baishi's three words, which surprised him a little.

However, he didn't plan to tear his face with Zhao Heng here, and it was okay to agree to this matter along the way.

But this does not mean that he really accepts this so-called price.

Because, what he wants is not only these, but the whole Qingzhou.

"Then thank you for your kindness." As he spoke, he glanced at Meng Yan and said lightly, "Let him go."

As soon as Meng Yan's hand was released, Zhao Xun immediately sat down on the ground, quite embarrassed, but he had long been accustomed to this kind of treatment, not to mention that even his father chose to be soft, even if he was unwilling in his heart, he could only endure it at the moment.

But he knows very well his father's character, and everything he has paid today will definitely be repaid a hundredfold and a thousand times in the future.

Now Li Chengqian, the seventh prince, seems to be in the limelight, but in fact, it is like cooking oil on fire, burning at the touch of a button.

However, Jiang Ji and Yu Youwei seemed extremely calm about Li Chengqian's agreement to this.

Seeing with their own eyes, how Li Chengqian pressed the head of Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang, to make him agree to the marriage, they naturally didn't believe it, these so-called wealth and beauties could easily send him away.

They were going to go directly to Jiangnan, and it was impossible for him to change his route for the so-called price in the mouth of King Jing'an.

In this way, the group of people looked good, and under the escort of a large army, they slowly walked towards Xiangfan City.

The sun is setting, and Xiangfan City is already close at hand.

You can already clearly see the famous Loucheng Diaoyu Tai on the head of the city.

On the plaque of the city tower, the words "Lonely Fishing in the Central Plains" look particularly gloomy and arrogant.

Below, an extraordinarily wide moat transforms the city into an island, with only a drawbridge paved to it.

At the end, the door is open, and it seems that it never closes.
