The First Tyrant of Daxia

Qin Yun smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry about this, just stay there and guard it."

"It would be best if I could capture her at Hangu Pass."

"If not, it's up to you, Eleventh Brother."

As he spoke, he patted Qin Ci's shoulder sincerely, his eyes sincere and trusting.

"We two brothers should work together to clear the biggest stumbling block for Daxia!"

Seeing this, Shunxun King Qin Ci forced a smile.

Pursing his lips, he said slowly: "Okay, I will do as you say. I will definitely guard the important road of Guzha River. I also wish my brother a successful start and a safe and peaceful life."

Qin Yun smiled slightly.

"You too, come back safely, go ahead, hand over the goods, and then you can set off in a roundabout way."

"Three days is very tight."

King Shunxun Qin Ci looked at him with mixed feelings.

This is the kind of love and care that I have never felt from my brother. It is so strange!

After a while, he left, leading the high-ranking officials of Youzhou to prepare for the matter of Guzha River.

The lobby is quiet.

Elder Feng stepped forward and suddenly whispered, "Your Majesty, General Mu Le and the 200,000 troops from Jiangnan have blocked the direction in which Wang Min escaped."

"Guzha River is the only way for Wang Min to escape."

"Is it really okay to leave this matter to King Shunxun?"

Qin Yun looked far-reachingly and took a breath.

"I believe in my eleventh brother."

"He is different from Lao Jiu. I will not misjudge him."

Old Feng nodded and said apologetically, "I have said too much. Your Majesty, please punish me."

Qin Yun smiled warmly: "Mr. Feng, you have followed me for so many years, devoted yourself to me, and are loyal to me."

"You are doing this for my own good, reminding me, what's wrong with that?"

Hearing this, Mr. Feng felt warm-hearted.

He forced a kind smile onto his old face.

Qin Yun patted him on the shoulder and said kindly, "Old Feng sent someone to investigate something."

"It's Eleventh Brother's personal problem. I want to investigate what kind of relationship he has with Situ's sister-in-law. Eleventh Brother has a beloved woman, and I want to know the hidden story."

Mr. Feng was stunned for a moment. Why investigate this?

But he didn't ask any more questions, just hunched over and said, "Yes!"

Qin Yun took the initiative to explain.

"I suspect that I broke up a marriage, or promised him an unhappy marriage."

"Moreover, this is based on my selfish desire to win over the aristocratic families."

"My dear brother, I don't want him to become a victim like this."

"If there really is a problem, as a brother, I must make amends and solve it."

Hearing this, Mr. Feng nodded heavily.

"Your Majesty, I will send someone to investigate right away."

"I just hope that Prince Shunxun can understand your majesty's good intentions. He must not follow the example of the Ninth Prince."

Hearing this, Qin Yun smiled slightly.

He didn't think Qin Ci would rebel, but he might have his own reasons.

From the brothel to the palace last night, he always felt that there was a story behind Qin Ci.

……

At night, Qin Ci set out with 30,000 elite troops.

He had to take a long detour, otherwise he would definitely be discovered by the people from Xiliang on the border.

Before leaving, Qin Yun went to see him off.

The two didn't talk much, but Qin Yun acted very much like an elder brother, showing his true feelings in plain words, and he was not trying to win over this extremely powerful brother.

But it's simple, blood is thicker than water!

Thirty thousand Youzhou soldiers set out from the southern gate of Youzhou, planning to take the mountain road, detour an extra hundred miles, cross the grassland territory, and reach Guya River.

When King Shunxun Qin Ci arrived at a place called Dongshengpo.

A luxurious carriage stood in the middle of the road.

The 30,000 troops were thus stagnant.

Qin Ci frowned slightly, rode to the front, and called softly, "Is it Brother Tang?"

"That's right, Brother Qin, it's me!"

A middle-aged man in a purple brocade robe walked out of the carriage.

He has a fair face and eyes like stars. He looks very steady and noble. One glance at him tells you that he is no small figure.

He came up to me with a smile.

"Brother Qin, how are you?"

Qin Ci dismounted from his horse and bowed as a gesture of greeting.

He said, "Brother Tang suddenly came here to wait for me. I guess he must have something important to tell me."

The man surnamed Tang opened his valuable folding fan and said with a smile, "Brother Qin is still so straightforward. He gets to the point right away."

"To be honest, I came here this time for something important."

"To be precise, I'm just an errand boy."

Run errands?

Qin Ci raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.

"If that's the case, then the ones who want to trouble me must be this group of people."

The man surnamed Tang nodded and looked up at the starry sky.

He sighed with emotion: "What a beautiful scenery! I really want to have a long talk with Brother Qin, drink wine and ask the moon. It's a pity that Xiliang is a rat shit, which has disturbed the peace of Daxia."

A bitter smile appeared on Qin Ci's resolute face.

"Brother Tang, please don't keep me in suspense. I am in a hurry. If there is something urgent, please speak first."

The man surnamed Tang closed his fan and said seriously, "Okay!"

"Then I'll just say it straight."

"The bigwigs above have already met together and discussed their opinions on Xiliang."

“And voting determines subsequent decisions.”

Qin Ci let out a long breath: "What did they say?"

The man surnamed Tang looked meaningfully at the 30,000 troops behind him.

Then he said faintly: "You should be able to guess it."

"What they mean is that everything needs to be balanced."

Hearing this, Qin Ci couldn't help but frown deeply.

He stood in the night wind, his body straight and motionless, allowing the cool breeze to hit his armor, making a rustling sound.

The man surnamed Tang looked at him with flickering eyes and frowned.

"Brother Qin, why do I see hesitation in you?"

Qin Ci took a deep breath and said nothing.

For some reason, those young and sharp eyes recalled the scene when Qin Yun sent him out.

The night breeze is blowing, and the wind on the border of Youzhou is very cool.

Surrounded by torches, the man surnamed Tang left after half an incense stick of time.

Qin Ci's team set out again and headed towards Guzha River.

the next day!

That was only two days left before the appointment at Hangu Pass.

Qin Yun also led his men out.

He first said goodbye to Situ, and then set out from the palace and officially headed for Hangu Pass.

The journey is not far.

Leave in the morning and arrive at night.

Hangu Pass is under the management of Youzhou, but it is not within the internal scope of Youzhou, so it is very desolate along the way.

In particular, the closer Qin Yun got to Hangu Pass, the more strange it felt!

That kind of weirdness seemed to exist in the air.

It seemed that every moment and every corner was filled with eyes, spying on him.

Qin Yun was too lazy to clean out these spies, so he just left them alone.

This is almost a tacit understanding between Wang Min and me.

There were no other troops at Hangu Pass except for a small number of garrisons on normal duty.

Pass wall.

Twenty-one people jumped out of the fish!

Wuming took the lead, his figure like a ghost in the dark, making it difficult to predict.

"I'll wait to see your Majesty!"

Qin Yun got off the dragon carriage and nodded: "Get up."

Then he looked towards the huge and dangerous Hangu Pass.

One man is in charge, no one can open it!

He said softly, "What a great Hangu Pass! It really is a natural barrier."

“Once you’re surrounded, you can’t escape.”

“Once occupied, it cannot be breached.”

"Tell me what you have discovered in the past few days. How many monsters and demons have come to this place?"

Wuming bowed and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty."

"There are many people here, but most of them are spies and informants. I am afraid of alerting them, so I have not moved."

"I also heard that the people Wang Min brought with him this time include many experts from outside the country."

"For example, the best gentleman's arrow in Xiliang is Yan Yin."
