He never thought that Chu Yixuan would actually come to the city! Did he come with Bi Su and Jun Zibi?
Looking at Bi Su and Jun Zibi, Bi Su's gaze gave him an answer. Jun Zibi shrugged his shoulders and left. After coming back, he hadn't really said a word to Qi Yu.
"Why are you here?" Qi Yu blinked her eyes. Uh, his sudden appearance was too sudden, catching people off guard!
Chu Yixuan turned around the corner and said softly, "Zhuo Hua, come out."
Princess Zhuo Hua slowly walked around the corner with Nian’er in her arms.
Qi Yu was startled, why did Chu Yixuan bring Princess Zhuo Hua over … What, what was he going to do?
Chu Yixuan opened his mouth: "I want to entrust Zhuo Hua to you. Take good care of the two of them for me."
What do you mean?
Wasn't Helian Jing the one who entrusted Princess Zhuo Hua to Chu Yixuan's care? Did Chu Yixuan have to change hands and hand Princess Zhuo Hua over to her now? Qi Yu looked at Chu Yixuan in doubt: "Where are you going?"
"I might have to make a trip to the Eastern Barbarian."
"Eastern Barbarian?"
Qi Yu was stunned, was Chu Yixuan going to go to the Eastern Barbarian? Now that there was a war between the two countries, for him to run to the enemy countries, was he courting death?
Seeing that, Princess Zhuo Hua hurriedly explained for her brother: "If Helian Jing goes back to the Eastern Barbarian alone, I'm afraid there will be danger, so … That's why I asked Third Brother to help me take care of it. "
Princess Zhuo Hua wanted to say, you know, nothing must happen to Helian Jing.
Although she did not say it out loud, Qi Yu understood from her pleading eyes.
Qi Yu sighed, "There are no winners or losers in this war, Eastern Barbarian Army is in the way, how do you plan to go?"
"We'll meet the winners and losers immediately." Chu Yixuan laughed, "The Eastern Barbarian Army will be withdrawn immediately."
"Why are you so sure?" Qi Yu was surprised.
"Or you can go to the top of the city gate tower and watch the battle."
Qi Yu was very surprised. Even if Jun Zibi and Bi Su's fish bile had been poisoned by Eastern Barbarian's war horses, they still had infantry. Would they really suffer such a crushing defeat?
"The reinforcements from Pingsha City have arrived!" It was unknown where this cheer came from, but immediately after, the Kang City began to boil!
Many commoners rushed out of the streets, competing and shouting, "The reinforcements from Pingsha City have arrived! The reinforcements are here, we're going to win! We're going to win! "
So it turned out to be the reinforcements from Pingsha City?
Qi Yu looked at Chu Yixuan in shock, the faint smile on his face looked extremely confident. Do you know that the reinforcements from Ping Sha City are about to arrive? "
Chu Yixuan smiled faintly and nodded slightly.
He was really paying attention to the development and changes of the situation at all times!
"Well, we must go first. Otherwise, when Helian Cheng returns to the capital, he will probably be in big trouble. " Chu Yixuan said as he walked over and gently held onto Qi Yu's shoulder, "Take care of yourself."
Qi Yu was stunned: "You're going with Lu Ming?"
"Uncle will also accompany us. Nothing will happen, don't worry."
Qi Yu suddenly felt a lump in her throat. She had originally thought that the battle at Kang City had ended, and that she and Chu Yixuan would be able to reconstruct their plans for their future, but she didn't expect that there would always be so many things going on.
Right now, he was going to go to the Eastern Barbarian to protect his brother-in-law, so she couldn't stop him. But how could she relax when he said that he wanted her to be at ease?
"I will keep in touch with Mou Qing. If you have any arrangements, you can just tell Mou Qing."
"If anything happens to you, you have to tell me, okay?" Qi Yu anxiously added, "It will never be the same as before. Don't tell me anything, make me blindly worry, blindly feel sad."
Qi Yu was referring to the previous incident where Huang Sha Town had faked its death.
"Alright, I won't." Chu Yixuan nodded, caressing Qi Yu's hair, Qi Yu immediately threw himself into his embrace and held him tightly.
Behind him, Princess Zhuo Hua and Bi Su's faces instantly turned hot as they turned their heads away in embarrassment, not daring to look at each other.
After a long while, Chu Yixuan gently patted Qi Yu's shoulders and said gently: "Alright, let's take Princess Zhuo Hua back to the government office first. Just tell him that Bi Su was the one who brought the person back. "
Chu Yixuan was referring to Feng Qingmo, Qi Yu understood.
She was a little doubtful. "He's already written to you about our situation. Why are you still on guard against him?"
"It's not that I'm on guard against him." Chu Yixuan was quiet for a moment, then turned and said to Master Zhuo Hua, "If there is anything you need, come and discuss it with your Third Sister-in-Law. "Don't be willful."
Princess Zhuo Hua nodded sadly. "Third brother's body is already like this, I can't even …"
Princess Zhuo Hua had not finished speaking when she pressed her hands together, stopping her from continuing. Princess Zhuo Hua was startled, then looked at Qi Yu.
Qi Yu immediately became alert: "What's wrong? What happened to your body? "
Chu Yixuan smiled slightly: "Nothing, just not that strong. You understand. "
Qi Yu immediately shifted her gaze towards Princess Zhuo Hua and Princess Zhuo Hua said awkwardly: "Third brother, he, he is coughing a little."
Was it really just a slight cough?
Qi Yu silently looked at Chu Yixuan, his expression was calm, his clear face was filled with gentleness and love.

Even though the battle had not ended, on this day, with all of Eastern Barbarian's war horses poisoned and unable to come out to fight, and with Pingsha City's fifty thousand strong army supporting Kang City, Eastern Barbarian had indeed lost miserably.
This kind of result, Helian Cheng was completely unable to withstand it.
The military tent had been smashed into a complete mess.
Di Ying called out from outside the tent, "Commander …"
"What is it?" Helian Cheng roared.
"Victory and defeat are commonplace in war, there is no need to be so angry." Her indifferent voice followed after Helian Cheng's figure entered the room.
Helian Cheng was stunned for a moment before he sat down with a cold smile. "I lost this battle again. The bad news spread not because of Third Imperial Brother's reputation, but because of my reputation!"
Helian Cheng slowly sat down and looked at the mess on the ground. He said calmly, "In the Central Qiu Continent, Dongluo is the nation that can be used to fight the most. Moreover, the Dongluo and lands were fertile, and their resources were abundant. They could give them the greatest amount of support. As for my Eastern Barbarian, we have not reached the point where we can defeat them. After a long journey, we are unable to supply any materials for a long period of time and this is also a fatal flaw. "
"So, third brother means that it's inevitable that we will lose the war?"
"You should have been mentally prepared for this, right?"
Helian Cheng's words caused Helian Cheng to be speechless.
He also sat down in anger, "I don't believe that old thief Xu Chang, but Fourth royal brother has overestimated his strength. He was tricked by old thief Xu Chang into coming to the Kang City and losing countless soldiers, it's really too much of a loss!"
Helian Cheng said indifferently, "He is in a hurry to make quick gains, so it is inevitable for him to suffer losses."
Helian Cheng was dazed. "That's why you insisted on stopping them. At that time, it seemed like you were going against the imperial government, but now, when you go back, it has become a foresight. Instead, it is a meritorious deed."
Helian Cheng smiled slightly: "So, which one do you think is the wisest choice?"
Helian Cheng's face turned red from holding his breath. "I'm just a boorish man. What use do you have for me?"
"You can march and fight. It's just that he's young and inexperienced. Come again after this battle, I believe you will be even more outstanding. "
Helian Cheng's expression was very sincere, and the look in his eyes was unquestionable as well. Even Helian Cheng could not help but believe him.
"Dang …" "Really?"
"A young martial general does not need to use a single battle to determine his entire life's achievements. "Believe me, I promise you a bright future!"
Helian Cheng's eyes wavered.
After a moment of silence, he blurted out, "What about Fourth royal brother? What do you plan to do with Fourth Emperor? "
However, Helian Cheng did not directly answer Helian Cheng's question, and only said: "The Eastern Barbarian is still developing. Your fourth brother is in a hurry for quick success, yet he's also emotional and has a difficult task to take care of. you don't have to worry about him. "
Helian Cheng slowly closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. Then, he opened his eyes, "Third brother, you mean it's time to retreat?"
Helian Cheng was not anxious at all. "Right now, even though I have returned, it is still difficult for me to achieve the climate. If I don't leave now, could it be that I will have to sacrifice all my troops and horses in the Kang City?"
Helian Cheng was instantly speechless.
If he couldn't even hit the Kang City, how could he attack it? If he didn't leave now, he was afraid that he would destroy the entire army in front of his Kang City!
But, to return with two losses, this … This was too embarrassing! If he were to return, how would he have the face to meet the Eastern Barbarian's father or elders again?
And how could he comfort Dan Shu's spirit in the underworld?
"You still want to take revenge for Dan Shu?" Helian Cheng saw through Helian Cheng's thoughts.
Helian Cheng lowered his head.
Helian Cheng slowly stood up, "Let's decide it that way then! It wouldn't be too late for a gentleman to exact vengeance in ten years. Sooner or later, we will still need to call back our Dongluo. "
"Then what about that old thief Xu Chang?"
"Xu Chang sided with my Eastern Barbarian, not because he wanted to make a name for himself. It was for his own personal grudge. Don't worry about him, let him fend for himself! "
Looking at Helian Cheng's calm back, Helian Cheng sucked in a breath of cold air.
From what Helian Cheng said, Xu Chang should be related to him too? To just ignore it like that was also heartless. Helian Cheng shivered, he silently looked at Di Ying who was guarding the door. Di Ying quickly walked up and listened to his orders. However, he could only sigh. Forget it, forget it!
He should have expected such an outcome. How could it be so easy to pass through and reach the Ji City? If Xu Chang really had that kind of ability, he wouldn't need to turn to his Eastern Barbarian for help.
Helian Cheng had already stood up and sat back down.

Thus, on the second day, Helian Cheng appeared and apologized to Dongluo, which was still considered quite proper and ended the battle.
Helian Cheng's speech had obviously pushed the responsibility of sending troops onto Helian Jing. Although it was not an overt statement, the underlying meaning was naturally that he was still a loving messenger who loved peace and desired freedom. The reason why he helped Helian Jing to end this absurd war, was because he was responsible to the two nations, Dongluo, and also for the prosperity of both nations, as well as for the safety and prosperity of the citizens.
Although Feng Qingmo did not express his stance, he still accepted Helian Cheng's request.
Accepting peace was just giving them face using Eastern Barbarian, making it easier for them to lose than losing. Dongluo was a huge country, so they had a bit of bearing.
