C356 Chu Jun came

In order to prevent the Army of Chu from ambushing them, Xie Qingrong and Lin An had been staying on the city wall for the past few days.

Xie Qingrong stood with her hands behind her back, and her long gaze looked far into the distance. The sun hid into the clouds and the sky gradually darkened. It was as if an ancient beast woke up with a torrent of anger and a low pressure.

Lin An stood by Xie Qingrong's side, following Xie Qingrong's gaze to the distance, they realised there was nothing there.

"My princess consort, I have already told you what you told me these days. I believe we will see the result soon." Lin An reported from the side.

"Yes." Xie Qingrong replied indifferently.

Lin An opened his mouth, as if he wanted to ask something. Xie Qingrong lightly glanced at Lin An, and said: "What does General Lin want to know? Just say it. "

After hesitating for a while, Lin An finally asked, "Crown Princess, this general doesn't understand, why Army of Chu has not appeared for such a long time."

He was actually more curious as to why Xie Qingrong had rearranged the troops atop the city gate tower. Could it be that Xie Qingrong knew the direction and goal of the Army of Chu's attack?

Xie Qingrong pursed her lips, the corner of her lips raised in a slight smile of disdain, making her beautiful face look even more open and bright.

He slowly said: "General Lin, in less than three days, Army of Chu will definitely make her move. Furthermore, the longer Army of Chu takes to act, the longer the time allotted for reinforcements to arrive will be longer. This way, the chances of Jiang Zhou City being kept alive will also increase. "

"Yes, this lowly general understands." Lin An nodded, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, Xie Qingrong called out to him: "General Lin, please wait."

Lin An turned around and looked at Xie Qingrong with slight suspicion.

Xie Qingrong smiled slightly and said: "General Lin, you must worry too much about the Jiang Prefecture."

Lin An pursed his lips, straightened his expression and said: "The Crown Princess's words are a bit foreign to me. The salary of a glutton was a matter of loyalty and devotion to the ruler. Furthermore, this lowly general is a general. For the sake of the Heavenly Sage, for the sake of the common people, he would not even hesitate to sacrifice his life even if it were to rain his blood on the ground. "

Xie Qingrong rubbed her forehead, although her expression was calm, the corners of her eyes revealed an embarrassed look, "General Lin is loyal and loyal, I is overthinking."

Lin An said with a serious face, "The princess consort has a golden body to begin with, but she runs to the battlefield like a man with a heart of worry for the entire world. You are the one who truly impressed this lowly general. "

He could understand what a battle in Jiang Prefecture meant. Facing ten thousand men and fifty thousand men was already an impossible battle, but he still had to risk his life to buy even the slightest bit of time for the reinforcement troops.

As the principal wife of the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince was on the front lines. The Crown Princess just needed to wait at home for the Crown Prince to come back.

However, Xie Qingrong was not like an ordinary girl. Whether it was strategy, courage, insight, talent, temperament, or methods, she admired them a lot.

That was why he volunteered to follow the princess consort and fight against the Jiang Zhou City.

Xie Qingrong laughed, she was not proud of Lin An's praise, nor was she modest.

This time, Lin An admired Xie Qingrong's calmness, just like the crown prince.

Unexpectedly, Lin An had just turned around, when a sharp arrow pierced through the air, and shot towards his back with an uneven lightning speed.

Xie Qingrong's gaze turned cold, her hand swept from behind her waist, fast as an afterimage, a violet-gold whip was in her hand, a whip wrapped around an arrow.

He pulled back hard and the arrow fell to the ground.

Lin An had already unsheathed his sword and held it in his hand. His cold brows pressed down, and the killing intent belonging to a general gradually spread out from his body.

"Thank you, Crown Princess, for saving my life." Lin An coldly replied as he stared in the direction the arrow came from, as if he could make a hole in it.

Xie Qingrong revealed a smile that was as cold as ice. The bottom of her deep eyes contained an ice-cold temperature, "It looks like Ye Jiaze is already about to make his move. General Lin, pass down the orders from I, all the entrances must be heavily guarded, not even a fly can be allowed to fly in! "

"Yes!" The last general's life! " Lin An cupped his fists, his expression was cold and stern, and killing intent surfaced in his eyes.

If the Crown Princess didn't stop the arrow, he would have been severely injured!

That sharp arrow was like a signal of danger. For a moment, the entire city was under martial law.

Xie Qingrong guarded the main city gate and waited in alert, but after waiting for a long time, she did not even see the shadow of a bird. She pursed her lips. Although she suspected that Ye Jiaze had other intentions in mind, her expression still remained calm and collected.

The tea on the small table had long been frozen by the cold weather. Xie Qingrong didn't mind as she picked up the teacup and took a sip.

It was a little cold, but it didn't affect the taste of the tea.

The cold wind howled, but Xie Qingrong's sharp senses told him that something had changed in the cold wind. Closing her eyes, he carefully listened to the sounds coming from the wind.

There seemed to be the sound of horses' hooves?

Could it be, the Army of Chu had come?!

Xie Qingrong immediately opened her eyes, his figure flashed, and quickly arrived beside Jiang Yizhou. Jiang Yizhou only saw a flash, and Xie Qingrong's figure appeared right in front of him.

His heart was startled by the sudden appearance of Xie Qingrong, her face turning pale white, she was about to say something.

's cold voice travelled to his ears, "Lord Jiang, they are here. Get all the archers ready and ready! "

Jiang Yizhou instantly retracted his somewhat panicky expression. Calming his nerves, he said solemnly: "This official obeys!"

"Archers, prepare! Listen to my command!" Jiang Yizhou shouted loudly.

The first batch of archers rushed to the tower in an orderly manner, drawing their bows and crouching. The second group of archers half-crouched behind them.

Xie Qingrong looked at the well-trained soldiers with satisfaction. She stood by the city walls, her eyes faraway, ready to observe any movement in the distance.

The sky was getting darker and darker. The sky was so dark that ink could drip out. In the distance, the wind was blowing and the sound of horses' hooves could be heard.

Xie Qingrong crossed her arms, and his eyes slightly narrowed. The dangerous look in his eyes flashed, and she sneered: "She's here."

The horses galloped along with the wind and sand in their wake. The general in the lead was wearing a black armor. His face was handsome but cold, and the soldiers behind him were lined up in neat formations.

It seemed that as long as the general gave the order, the warriors behind him would charge towards the tower like wolves.

However, the soldier was the first to grasp the reins. With a slight gesture of his hand, the group of soldiers behind him pulled the horse together.

Xie Qingrong's finger lightly tapped on her arm, her gaze calm and cold. Jiang Yizhou, who was beside him, watched the movements of the Army of Chu in front of him and seemed to be puzzled. "Crown Princess, what are they doing?"

Before Xie Qingrong could reply to her doubts, Ye Jiaze, who was the leader of the Army of Chu s, used her internal energy and shouted, "I never thought that the Heavenly Sage was actually so incompetent, to call a woman to guard the city gates!"
