Chapter 1225: Failure to capture the king

"In this way, deliberately delaying the time just now, and stopping the main army here, these are all ......" He Xunyi endured the pain all over his body and continued to ask.

"Of course, this king did it on purpose-cough cough......" King Chatai coughed with illness on the side, but it did not affect the aura of his body, Zhenzhen said, "Last night, this king and Liang Xiaowei broke through from the northern camp, in addition to retreating, there is also a purpose, which is to attract you here...... Do you really think that this king is a weak worm, and most of the battles are so easy to be captured by you?" "The tone in which King Chatai spoke now vaguely seemed to have returned to his high-spirited and youthful days.

It turned out that everything was planned and arranged, and the king of Chatai retreated here with Liang Qing and others, ostensibly to escape the pursuit of the "Ming Fujiao", but in fact to lead He Xunyi and others into this encirclement planted in advance. It's just that He Xunyi chased and killed in advance so far, which was a bit unexpected, but fortunately, Qi Xueyin saved himself halfway - what King Chatai secretly told Qi Xueyin and Liang Qing just now was this matter, and Qi Xueyin also bought a lot of time for the reinforcements to arrive because of the duel with Liang Qing.

He Xunyi also finally understood at that moment why Qi Xueyin had been conservative in the duel just now. Looking at Qi Xueyin's expression again, she still cast a disdainful glance at herself when she was injured, as if she was laughing at herself.

"Damn, is it over like this? I'm not reconciled......" He Xunyi was naturally unwilling to "end" in such a way, but now that the reinforcements of Mengyuan's troops have arrived, his own sect members have been ambushed in the streets and alleys, and now he is seriously injured and can no longer fight, and if he does not retreat, let alone capture the other party's boss, it is still unknown whether he can get out of here alive.

Qi Xueyin eased her breath, simply wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and sneered at He Xunyi: "I didn't expect that the dignified 'Mingfu Sect' sect leader only has this ability...... The little woman today with her palm, she forced Sect Master He to a dead end, and she has no regrets in this battle, but I am afraid that Sect Master He's reputation will ......."

"You guy ......" was so "humiliated" by a junior, or a female streamer, He Xunyi has never had it in his life, if he still has a trace of strength, he has to step forward and fight with Qi Xueyin.

However, seeing that his sect leader was anxious, his cronies and disciples hurriedly dissuaded him: "Sect Master, don't be rash anymore, today's plan has failed, and we have fallen into the trap of the enemy, let's withdraw quickly!"

"If I don't kill these guys, I can't swallow this breath!" He Xunyi was unwilling, and said angrily.

"But the current situation is beyond our control," the cronies continued to say urgently, "Today, when the poor soldiers chased here, they were ambushed by the enemy troops, and when the morale was low Chinese, we must not fight again!"

"Ahh......h

"If you continue to stay here, you will sacrifice more people and horses in vain, and you will be left in the green mountains, and you will not be afraid of no firewood-" The cronies continued to drink and discourage.

He Xunyi raised his head, revealing unwilling eyes, and finally looked at the "secretly proud" King Chatai on the side, and Qi Xueyin, who cast a contemptuous look at him, and shouted in desperation: "All of you have it, withdraw from the alley β€”β€”"

The "Mingfu Sect" all the sects listened to the order and gathered in Mingjin to collect their troops, and He Xunyi retreated to the narrow mouth with the support of his cronies - today's battle not only failed to "capture the king", but also suffered heavy losses to the sect's troops, which was no less than the casualties of the Liangqing garrison camp last night......

After the reinforcements of Meng Yuan arrived, they quickly exterminated the remnants of the enemy who had not withdrawn, and after several generals stopped on horseback, they hurriedly rushed to the king of Chatai and ordered: "The last general and others are too late to rescue, and please forgive the prince!"

Indeed, although the king of Chatai used a plan to set up an ambush and counter-encirclement here in advance, the speed of the reinforcements was slightly slowed down, if it wasn't for Qi Xueyin's "single-knife savior" halfway, maybe he would be intercepted and killed in advance by the "Ming Fujiao", and he would really be more than lucky.

"No matter what, as long as you succeed in driving the enemy away, this king will be fine...... Ahem...... "King Chatai coughed slightly, and said steadily.

"But the ...... of the injuries on your body, Lord Wang" Liang Qing was worried about the duel between Qi Xueyin and He Xunyi just now, and he had been helping King Chatai deal with the recurring wounds, and seeing that King Chatai's expression was a little tired, he was still worried and asked.

"I said, this king is in good health...... "King Chatai waved his hand and relieved himself, then turned to Qi Xueyin beside him and said, "It was this Qi girl who saved this king in danger...... Ahem...... Her injuries are worse than this king's, so you should care more about her......"

"Thank you, Miss Qi......" Liang Qing thought that today Qi Xueyin was alone, but he saved the king of Chatai from fire and water, and he was infinitely grateful in his heart.

"It's okay...... After all, it is the father of Senior Brother Dordun...... "Sure enough, after He Xunyi and the disciples of the "Mingfu Sect" left, Qi Xueyin dared to completely let go of his heart, and the pain suddenly surged all over his body, especially the sprained ankle, his body tilted slightly, and he almost didn't stand firm after relaxing, and said tremblingly, "If you fail to protect the prince, then it is...... The sins of the little woman ......"

"Miss Qi, you have suffered, and today you are in trouble, and this king is grateful-" King Chatai actually bowed down and thanked Qi Xueyin in front of him.

The king of Chatai saluted, and all the soldiers and soldiers behind him knelt down in unison, Qi Xueyin couldn't stand such a respectful "generous gift" for a while, and hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Don't ...... Don't, it's just a woman in the next stream, and I can't stand it...... Such a heavy courtesy......"

"If Miss Qi hadn't arrived when she was in danger, how could this king have been finished today?...... Ahem...... "King Chatai coughed again, then slowly got up and said, "You are the younger sister of Dorton, and to this king, you are like a niece and daughter...... If you don't see me in the future, just call me uncle...... Ahem......"

"Okay, Uncle Chatai......" Qi Xueyin was also embarrassed to "refuse", and suddenly felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart......

"Dada...... Da ...... "However, at this moment, on the eastern side of the city, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves......

"Someone is coming-" Liang Qing and the Meng Yuan generals who came to support and protect the King of Chatai heard this, and raised their voices, and they all looked to the east side, not daring to slack off at a critical time.

The soldiers of the army also looked at each other, and the sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, fearing that there would be "uninvited guests" coming at this time, endangering the life of the prince.

However, when the person who came appeared, everyone was surprised - the person who hurriedly rode a horse was actually Sun Yun!

The investigation in Tianjing Mansion was not complete, and he learned that it was the people of the "Canghuan Sect" who were behind the scenes, and he was afraid that he had fallen into the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, so Sun Yun hurriedly rode his horse back to the military place early this morning. But what a coincidence, during his absence, his father was really attacked by the "Mingfu Sect", and even almost died.

"Fatherβ€”β€”" Seeing his father's injured figure, Sun Yun shouted loudly from a distance.

"It's Yun'erβ€”" King Chatai was also overjoyed, and replied with a surprised look.

"Great, it's Brother Sun Yun who is back!" Liang Qing couldn't help but get excited when he saw it on the side.

However, only Qi Xueyin saw Sun Yun, and her expression was a little solemn - after leaving the Chatai Palace, she hadn't seen Sun Yun for almost a month, but the hatred for him in her heart was faint in her heart and never subsided......

"Phew-" After Sun Yun reined in his horse, he hurriedly ran to his Chatai King, saw that his father was injured, and hurriedly asked, "Father, are you okay?" What happened and why did the troops stay here?β€”β€”

"After you left, we were attacked by the 'Mingfu Sect'......" Liang Qing pointed to the corpses of the "Mingfu Sect" disciples everywhere, and said calmly, "The original camp was broken by the enemy's sneak attack, and the disparity in strength is huge...... The prince ordered the rear reinforcements to rush to this place in advance, and used a strategy to lure the enemy into counter-encirclement, so he barely repelled them, and now he is worry-free for the time being......"

"What, 'Mingfu Sect'?!β€”β€”" Sun Yun couldn't help but ask in surprise when he heard this.

"Yes, and the sect leader He Xunyi personally led the troops, it seems that he used the main force to attack our battalion......" Liang Qing looked at him and continued, "The sect leader personally went out to fight, I feel that this was premeditated in advance, but fortunately, the prince planned to resolve the crisis......"

"But my father is still injured...... Sun Yun looked at his father's injury, and continued to hurriedly ask, "Father, how is your injury, does it matter? The child rescue was late, which frightened the father...... "After all, the other party is He Xunyi, who once forced himself to a dead end, and now that his father is in this situation, Sun Yun of course can't rest assured."

"Father is very good, Yun'er, you don't have to worry about it......" King Chatai looked at Sun Yun's hurried expression, thinking of his supposed "mission", but couldn't help asking, "But then again, Yun'er, weren't you ordered to investigate the murder of Lord Li Miao in Tianjing Mansion? Why is this happening...... Ahem......"

"There are many strange things about this matter, so the child hurried back......" Sun Yun thought that the matter was complicated, and he couldn't explain it for a while, and at the moment, his father's injury was serious, so he raised his hand and said, "These will be talked about when we return to the safe camp...... Let's not talk about this for a while, I see that your injuries are not shallow, father, so let the child heal for you-"

"I said, my injuries are fine, and I can handle them casually when I return to the army......" King Chatai waved his hand and motioned to Qi Xueyin beside him, "You better look at Miss Qi, she is much more injured than my father...... If she hadn't arrived in time today, I'm afraid my father would have been in danger of dyingβ€”"

"What, Xueyin is your ?!β€”β€”" Sun Yun said with a surprised look when he saw Qi Xueyin.

"Hmph......" Qi Xueyin seemed to still have a grudge, and twisted her head with disdain.

"Why, so you know each other...... Ahem...... "King Chatai couldn't help but ask in surprise when he saw that the two were familiar with each other.

"Ever since we left our father, we have ......been together almost every day," Sun Yun eased his nerves, and his expression became a little serious, "But just twenty days ago, she and I returned to the Chatai Palace, and there was some conflict, and she left in a fit of anger and didn't know her whereabouts, but she didn't want to see her here today...... Xueyin, where have you been for the past 20 days? Not only me, but also your senior brother are worried about you-"

"Don't you take care of my affairs......" Although Qi Xueyin was angry, she was not too excited, maybe her body was too seriously injured and she was a little weak.

"It's all this time, are you still willful?......" Looking at Qi Xueyin's "awkward" expression, Sun Yun was helpless, remembering his previous "mistakes", so he softened and said, "Or do you still hate me......"

"I ...... Hmph, I'm too lazy to tell you-" Qi Xueyin wanted to blame, but now she couldn't lose her temper for some reason, so she turned her head and closed her eyes and interjected.

"I don't know what happened between you, but now is not the time to blame each other...... Ahem...... Seeing that the emotions of the two were a little "wrong", King Chatai hurriedly stopped him, and patiently explained, "Especially you Yun'er...... Miss Qi had a duel with He Xunyi just now, and she was seriously injured, she is a girl, and you are still doing everything possible to 'make things difficult', I'm afraid it's not appropriate...... Ahem......"

"What, Xueyin, you just ...... Duel with He Xunyi?!β€”β€”" Hearing this, Sun Yun couldn't help but get up and said in surprise.

Qi Xueyin didn't answer, maybe she really didn't have the strength, so she turned her head and closed her eyes silently.

"Yes, if she hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid my father would have been really lucky before the reinforcements arrived...... Ahem...... "King Chatai continued to help speak, "He Xunyi's martial arts are strong, and Miss Qi stepped forward single-handedly and fought with He Xunyi, delaying enough time...... Ahem...... Therefore, she is now more injured than her father, since you know each other and know her so well, you should care about her first...... Ahem......"

"Well......" Sun Yun looked at Qi Xueyin's "disdainful" face, obviously still hating himself, but it was a fact that he took the risk to save his father, so he whispered comfort, "Thank you, Xueyin, I owe you too much...... But now that you're too badly injured, I hope you can put aside your prejudices for the time being, and go back to the camp with me to heal......"

Qi Xueyin was silent for a long time, glanced at Sun Yun's gaze, and suddenly said in a low tone: "You don't blame me now?......

"It's all like this, what do I blame you for......" Sun Yun suddenly softened his heart and said kindly, "You don't know, during your absence, Juan Er and Dordun have been worrying about you...... Especially Juan'er, because of your affairs, she even had an awkward relationship with me, and she was still angry with me until that day before I left the palace to support my father...... I know Xueyin you're not happy, if you want to blame me, you can blame me, but now that the situation in the capital Xicheng is scorching, it's really too dangerous for you to run out alone......"

Qi Xueyin thought for a while, closed her eyes and said a word, then slowly relaxed: "Okay, I'll tell the truth...... After leaving the palace more than 20 days ago, I ran to Xicheng alone not because of a conflict with you, but because of the task that Master gave me......

"Mission?" Sun Yun couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this......
