For a moment, the sound of shouting and killing shook the valley, and the flashes of swords and sabers were everywhere.

Xiao Jingheng took the lead and rushed straight towards King Jin, his long sword stabbing at his throat like a poisonous snake. King Jin dodged to the side, swung his sword to block it, and slashed at Xiao Jingheng with his backhand.

The two men fought back and forth with fierce moves, neither giving in.

Soldiers from both sides engaged in a melee. The prince's soldiers were well-trained and launched a fierce attack; while the troops of the King of Jin were ready to die and fought to the death.

Swords clashed, blood splattered, and people kept falling down with screams.

Some soldiers had their chests pierced by spears, and some had their arms chopped off by swords. The water in the mountain stream was soon dyed red with blood.

One of the prince's personal guards seized the opportunity and rushed towards the prince from the side, raising his sword to strike him. The prince was engaged in a fierce battle with the prince and had no time to respond.

At this critical moment, the guard of Prince Jin shouted, flew over, and blocked the fatal blow with the long sword in his hand. Zhang Meng wrestled with the guards. After several rounds, Zhang Meng killed the prince's guards with one sword.

Both of them were panting, but they still wanted to fight to the death.

There was the sound of horse hooves approaching again. Xiao Jingheng looked up at the back of Prince Jin and saw that it was the Crown Princess with Jiang Xiuyuan and the soldiers from the Zhenbei General's Mansion.

Prince Jin was amused, "You, the Crown Princess, are not afraid of death."

As he said this, he took out an arrow from his back and was about to draw the bow. He raised his hand, and the prince snatched the spear from Han Desheng's hand and threw it at the King of Jin.

Prince Jin moved quickly, but Gu Qinghe moved even faster. Before Prince Jin could find the direction, an arrow came flying from the sky.

It hit the King of Jin right on the shoulder.

Ever since she was threatened by the arrows of King Jin in her previous life, she had practiced hard for six years, and today she finally returned it to him.

The spear thrown by Xiao Jingheng also pierced the left thigh of King Jin.

Those who came with Prince Jin also surrendered and laid down their weapons, and Chen Yuan was taking down their names one by one.

Gu Qinghe dismounted, and Xiao Jingheng quickly walked to her side. "Why are you here?"

With a "slap", a slap mark appeared on Xiao Jingheng's face.

Xiao Jingheng was surprised, "Qinghe, why are you hitting me?"

Han Desheng and others didn't dare to raise their heads...

Gu Qinghe ignored him and looked at Prince Jin lying on the ground. "I have already informed my father. Your Highness, please keep him alive and let my father decide his fate."

At this time, the prince personally dealt with the King of Jin, which was not conducive to establishing the image of a "benevolent monarch".

Xiao Jingheng was silent for a few breaths, "Okay, the Crown Princess is right."

After Gu Qinghe finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. Xiao Jingheng quickly chased after him, "Qinghe, why don't you talk to me?"

Gu Qinghe continued to walk forward quickly, his voice calm: "Who are you?"

Han Desheng followed quickly behind, thinking: Something bad has happened, the drug is not working.

The imperial physician clearly said that half a day would not be a problem. He was the one who got the medicine. Will the prince settle accounts with him later?

Jamel Xiao quickly reached out and grabbed the man, holding him in his arms, "I am your husband, Jamel Xiao."

Gu Qinghe glanced at him and said, "Oh, I thought my husband was a hero and was gone. On the way here, I was thinking that the recent portraits of men were not in vain. Maybe I can use them myself."

Jamel Xiao snorted, feeling very uncomfortable. "I was wrong, but I did it for your own good."

"Next time, ask me before you do something good for me." Gu Qinghe said angrily, "I don't like this."

Originally, in this life, the performance of the Dog Prince could be said to be very good, but in the end, he brought this upon himself.

After Gu Qinghe finished speaking, he took out a piece of letter paper from his pocket, which was crumpled beyond recognition.

"Back to you."

The letter explained in detail what Xiao Jingheng was going to do on this trip and what he was planning. He asked Gu Qinghe to wait for him at the Zhenbei General's Mansion.

He said that his design was very good and with Chen Yuan's help, there would be no mistakes.

Finally, he also anticipated any possible situations so that Gu Qinghe could take care of himself.

After reading the letter that the general's wife took out, Gu Qinghe immediately crumpled it into a ball and threw it on the ground.

"Xiao Jingheng, in your suicide note, you told me to take care of myself. What widow could take care of herself?" Gu Qinghe questioned. "And what else is there: 'If you can be moved to tears, that would be my pride, because my efforts in this life have finally yielded a small result; but when I think of this, I can't bear to see you cry. I hope you are happy.'"

Xiao Jingheng's ears turned red, "Qinghe, stop talking."

"There's nothing more to say. Which widow is happy?" Gu Qinghe asked seriously, "How can one be happy if one has countless wealth and secretly keeps a lover?"

"Oh, my aunt, please stop talking." Xiao Jingheng really couldn't argue with her, so he simply lowered his head and kissed the Crown Princess.

There was only a "woooo" sound as Gu Qinghe pushed the dog prince's chest, but soon the only sound was the swallowing sound.

Han Desheng also lowered his head, and Jiang Xiuyuan blushed even more. He was only a fifteen-year-old boy.

Xiao Jingheng was not angry at all at this time, but was very happy. Gu Qinghe had a sharp tongue but a soft heart, which showed that she cared about him.

After a long while, until Gu Qinghe was almost having difficulty breathing, Xiao Jingheng reluctantly let her go, "Qinghe, I'm really happy right now."

Gu Qinghe didn't say anything. Her heart finally calmed down. God knows, when Gu Qinghe guessed what Xiao Jingheng was going to do, she felt so nervous. It was the first time in her two lifetimes.

However, she couldn't expose him on the spot and ruin his plan.

At that time, Gu Qinghe was thinking that the court could not do without Xiao Jingheng, and she could not be a widow.

Xiao Jingheng was not in a hurry to get a positive answer from the Crown Princess. In fact, the answer already existed.

After all, his Crown Princess's heart is not made of iron.

He also knew that it was not the end here. As the saying goes, it is easy to conquer the world, but difficult to rule it.

He always maintains this attitude towards the Crown Princess.

Chen Yuan walked behind Prince Jin and said, "Look, you even included the Crown Princess in your scheme. If it weren't for her, this day next year would be your death anniversary."

"I wish he would kill me," said the King of Jin, and spat.

"The emperor is in poor health and doesn't want to see bloodshed, so he will probably spare your life. However, if you still act like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water, I can't guarantee it." Chen Yuan said.

Prince Jin snorted and laughed, "Chen Yuan, you and your father are really the emperor's lackeys."

"Yes, being a loyal dog requires knowledge." Chen Yuan did not bother to argue with the defeated bandit.

Losers always find this and that to be unsatisfactory. He has seen this many times and can understand it.
