No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 582 Of course I don't want to!

Qu Fang was dressed in black, still holding the familiar sword in his hand.

In Bai Jingrong's eyes, Qu Fang didn't seem to have changed much after not seeing him for a few years.

Her eyes were fixed on Qu Fang's face, and after a while she slowly said: "It seems that you have had a good time in Dasheng these few years, and Xie Yan has not treated you badly."

Qu Fang didn't answer, just stood silently at the door and looked at her.

Bai Jingrong sighed lightly, and told the others in the hall: "You all step back first."

"Princess!" Wu Ye shouted in a deep voice, obviously very dissatisfied with Bai Jingrong's order.

Luo Junyao also whispered: "Your Majesty..."

Bai Jingrong raised his hand and gently played with the braids of her hair hanging on her chest, and said softly: "Don't worry, his name is Qu Fang, he is my old friend, he will not hurt me."

After finishing speaking, he said to Wu Ye seriously: "General, you go back first, if you have anything to do, we will talk about it later."

Wu Ye glanced at Qu Fang unwillingly, he was no stranger to Qu Fang, and knew that he was not Qu Fang's opponent.So even though he was dissatisfied in his heart, he didn't say much after all, put the knife into the sheath, and walked out with a cold snort.

Luo Junyao didn't dare to stay for long, so he quickly followed.

After leaving the main hall, Wu Ye did not leave in a hurry.

Instead, she stood in the garden and waited for Luo Junyao who came out from behind. Luo Junyao naturally knew that he was waiting for her. She was also somewhat curious about this Wu Ye, so she walked over as if she didn't know anything.

"stop."

"Wu, General Wu?" Luo Jun shook his head.

Wu Ye raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "Your name is Chuchu?"

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "Return to General, that's right."

Wu Ye said: "Since the princess intends to accept you as a righteous daughter, how about this general also accepting you as a righteous daughter? In the future, you will be considered as an extra backer in this palace."

"……"what happened?Why did everyone want to be her father when they came to the Qi clan's royal city?

"What? You don't want to?" Seeing her silence, Wu Ye said coldly.

Luo Jun shook his head again and again and said: "Back, back to the general, thank you for the kindness of the general, it's just that the empress..."

Wu Ye said with a smile, "What should I do? I'll tell the princess. The princess will definitely not object."

Luo Jun said: "Your Majesty treats me very well. I can't make a decision behind my Majesty's back. Please forgive me. If your Majesty agrees, it's not too late."

Seeing her like this, Wu Ye was not angry either.

Instead, he looked her up and down, and his sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, as if he was a little confused.

Wu Ye's confusion is also very simple: this girl looks a little stubborn, she is not as smart and fickle as Bai Jingrong, what exactly does Bai Jingrong like in her?

After a while, Wu Ye waved his hand to signal that she could go.

Luo Junyao saluted slightly, and then hurried away, as if he was afraid that Wu Ye would stop her again and insisted on recognizing her as a righteous daughter.

Seeing this, Wu Ye felt more and more bored, so he also forgot about it and turned to leave.

In the hall, it was quiet for a long time.

Bai Jingrong sat lazily on the soft couch, looking at Qu Fang who was still standing at the entrance of the hall.

I don't know how long it took before Bai Jingrong said softly: "Ah Fang, how long has it been since we met?" Qu Fang remained silent and just looked at her quietly.

Bai Jingrong said, "Are you still angry with me?"

Qu Fang finally moved. He stepped into the hall and stopped four or five steps away from Bai Jingrong.

"Are you willing to leave here with me?" Qu Fang asked in a low voice.

Bai Jingrong was stunned, as if he thought he had heard wrong.

"What did you say?"

"Are you willing to leave here with me? Leave the King City of the Qi Clan, and leave all the turmoil." Qu Fang said.

Bai Jingrong's complexion changed, and it took a while before he sneered, his originally soft and charming face became indifferent.

"You came back just to tell me this?"

"You don't want to?" Qu Fang's eyes dimmed slightly.

Bai Jingrong stood up suddenly, stared at Qu Fang indifferently, and said, "Of course I don't want to!"

"But you..." Qu Fang frowned and said, "The current situation is not good for you, why should you..."

Bai Jingrong sneered and said, "Do you think I'm going to a dead end? That's why you came back to save me? You have been in Shangyong all these years, and your apprentice is still following Xie Yan. Xie Yan told you all this? Xie Yan Where are you now? Could it be that you have also come to the King City of the Qi Clan?"

Although she said this, her expression was a little careless. Obviously, she didn't really think that Xie Yan would come to this royal city of the Qi clan surrounded by thousands of miles of yellow sand alone, as the majestic regent king.

Qu Fang looked at her and said, "Since you know that Tian Ge is following Xie Yan now, why don't you suspect that I was also sent by Xie Yan to kill you?"

Bai Jingrong's indifferent eyes suddenly became gentle again, she seemed to have this ability to switch between various emotions at any time.

She looked at Qu Fang and said softly: "Why would I think so? I know you will never hurt me, A Fang, right?"

Qu Fang did not answer.

Bai Jingrong got up and walked to Qu Fang. Bai Jingrong was not short among women, but Qu Fang was tall among men.

Bai Jingrong stood in front of him, looking extraordinarily slender and petite.

But her aura is not weak at all, even if there is a soft smile on her beautiful face.

"A Fang, does your promise back then still count?"

It took a long time for Qu Fang to say in a deep voice: "Forget it, I will never hurt you, I will always protect you."

Only now was Bai Jingrong satisfied, and chuckled lightly.

Her soft laughter echoed in the hall with satisfaction and joy.

"I knew that A Fang would not let me down." Bai Jingrong said softly, "I have wronged you these past few years."

Qu Fang looked down at her and said, "I heard that the relationship between you and Ji Zhan is not harmonious now. If you tear your face apart, your situation in the King City of Qizu..."

Bai Jingrong, the Queen Mother, was based on the fact that Ji Zhan was King Qi.

If Ji Zhan broke up with her, or if Ji Zhan was no longer King Qi, how could a Central Plains woman with no Qi blood continue to gain a foothold in the King City of Qi?

"After so many years, you still refuse to give up?" Qu Fang said: "Is it really so difficult to give up these things and live some other lives? I have been in Shangyong for the past few years, and I don't think there is anything wrong. life, it's not that hard."

Bai Jingrong's smile gradually faded, "A Fang, after all, you are a member of the rivers and lakes, and you don't understand these things..."

"I don't understand?" Qu Fang said.

Bai Jingrong said: "Why should I give up? For so many years... I have spent most of my life in it, why should I give up?"

Bai Jingrong put his hand on Qu Fang's arm, looked up at him, and said, "A Fang, I am very happy that you are back, and I can feel relieved when you are here. Don't talk about those unpleasant things, let's sit down Shall we talk about the old days?"

Qu Fang sighed softly, but didn't say anything more after all.

In fact, he already knew that any persuasion would be useless to Bai Jingrong.

She has already been deeply involved in it and cannot extricate herself. No matter what the situation is, she will only go to the dark one by one.

The return of Qu Fang put Bai Jingrong in a very good mood, and she unceremoniously swung the sharp sword that had been lost for several years again.

On the night when Qu Fang returned to Bai Jingrong's side, two generals of the Bai family army who secretly supported Ji Zhan died quietly in their own home.

From Wu Ye down, there are three other generals in the Bai family army, all of whom came to the Qi clan with Bai Jingrong back then.

They were all the most outstanding young generals under the command of Emperor Wu Chen.

Back then when they followed Bai Jingrong out of customs, they were still youths in their prime. After those veterans gradually withered, they became the pillars of the army.

And now, they are over half a year old.

Some of them, like Wu Ye, still supported Bai Jingrong as always.

For various reasons, they also voted for Ji Zhan, who seemed more promising.

Of course, there are also people who don't want to participate in either party.

After living under the fence for so many years, they deeply feel the difficulty of living in a foreign country and the coldness of the world.Compared with how to seize power in the Qi nationality, they miss their hometown they have been away for many years.

Wu Jun is one of them.

He used to be the captain of Emperor Wu of the Great Chen, and he was only 25 years old when he followed Bai Jingrong out of the fortress. After so many years, he knows better than anyone that the ambitions of the past have dissipated into dust.

Some of the officers and men of the Bai family army now marry Qi people, and they have settled down as Qi people.

Some people still insist on illusory ideals, even though they all know that it is just a fantasy.

And many more had already died in the battles between Qizu and Dasheng in those years.

Wu Jun was never married and had no children.

He wanted to go back to the Central Plains, to the hometown that once belonged to him.

He even thought about abandoning everything and going back to the pass through the desert alone.This is not difficult and he can do it. It is better to return to the Central Plains to hide his name and be an ordinary person than to stay in the Qi clan's royal city.

But he couldn't let go of the soldiers under his command. He knew very well what consequences they would face if he abandoned everything and ran away.

Even if they won't be killed, they will be oppressed and discriminated against in the King City of the Qi Clan, and they will be the first to be pushed out to die as cannon fodder when necessary.

The most likely outcome for them is to die in the battle between King Qi and Bai Jingrong.

Wu Jun came back from the outside, remembering what happened just now, his brows were still furrowed.

Two senior generals of the Bai family army were killed overnight, and Wu Jun immediately suspected that it was Wu Ye who did it.

He has been watching coldly these days, but he also knows that the two dead comrades have secretly taken refuge in Ji Zhan.

Now that the two are dead, King Qi's painstaking efforts may be in vain.

Wu Ye now controls most of the military power of the Bai family army, the next...

I'm afraid it's just me, right?Wu Jun sneered in his heart.

"Who?!" Before he had time to put down the saber in his hand, Wu Jun's face suddenly changed, he clenched the saber and turned around to look at the entrance of the inner room.

Could it be that Wu Ye sent someone to kill him?Wu Jun thought to himself.

The two came out from the inside, and they couldn't help being taken aback when they saw Wu Jun coming.

There are two men dressed in Central Plains costumes, one is handsome and dignified, and his gestures are full of the posture of a king.

The other person was much more low-key, with a calm expression, lowered eyebrows, holding a sword with one hand, like a guard.

It's not that there are no people in the Qi nationality's royal city who wear Central Plains costumes. After all, there are quite a few Bai family troops, and not everyone likes Qi nationality costumes.

But Wu Jun can be sure that these two people are definitely not anyone in the Qi clan's royal city.

"General Wu, don't be nervous." The visitor said.

Wu Jun clenched his saber, and said vigilantly, "Who are you?"

"Xie Yan."

Wu Jun's heart was shocked, and the knife in his hand almost dropped.

Just two simple words, but Wu Jun matched the name and identity in an instant.

Dasheng Regent, Xie Yan.

It is indeed a name that every soldier of the Bai family army is famous for.

Wu Jun looked around the entire room, and finally set his eyes on Xie Yan, and said in a deep voice, "Regent Dasheng, you are so courageous."

Wu Jun really never thought that the Regent of Dasheng would come to the King City of the Qi Clan in person, and he did not bring thousands of troops with him.

"Thank you." Xie Yan said lightly.

Wu Jun was silent for a while, before he said: "Regent, please sit down and talk."

Xie Yan looked at the shadow behind him, who nodded slightly, turned around and walked out.

Wu Jun frowned, wanting to call Die Ying to stop.

It is still broad daylight, and his mansion may not be completely safe, if someone sees it...

Xie Yan said: "Don't worry, he will be careful."

Wu Jun didn't want to say anything, so he made a gesture of please to Xie Yan.

The two walked to the table on one side of the room and sat down, "I'm not well greeted without tea, please forgive me the Regent."

Xie Yan said: "The general is serious, don't be polite."

The two sat down respectively, and after a moment of relative silence, Wu Juncai said again: "The regent's courage is extraordinary, and I admire it. I think the regent has come all the way, so he must have a plan. But I don't know why you are here? "

Xie Yan said frankly: "To be honest, Xie came here to persuade General Wu to return to the Central Plains with his troops."

Wu Jun's face changed slightly, and the astonishment between his brows was undisguised.

"The regent's words..." Wu Jun pondered for a moment before slowly saying: "Why did the regent come to find Wu? You know...the Bai family army has been an enemy of Dasheng for many years."

Xie Yandao: "Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Wu of Chen fought for the world back then, and the two sides were indeed enemies. But in the final analysis, the sons of the Bai family army are all Zhongyuan brothers with the same roots and blood, aren't they?"

Wu Jun was a little moved, but he just looked at Xie Yan and was speechless for a while.

Xie Yandao: "General Wu was originally loyal to the Bai family, so it's no wonder that everyone is the master on the battlefield. But now that the Bai family's situation is gone, does General Wu really want to put these Central Plains sons in the thousands of miles of yellow sand? Or fight to the death for the Qi people?"

Wu Jun's face was bitter, who said it wasn't?

Those who are not of our race must have a different heart. The Bai family army has sacrificed a lot for the Qi people in the past few years.But the Qi people still regard them as bereaved dogs who were taken in by Bai Jingrong after bewitching the late King Qi with her beauty.

They are all hot-blooded men, who wants to bear such a reputation?
But they are the dogs of the defeated generals, what can they do if they can't bear it?

After Ji Sui passed away, Ji Zhan, who succeeded him, almost broke with Bai Jingrong. He really didn't know where they were headed.

Seeing his expression, Xie Yan said: "General Wu, don't worry, you can think about this issue slowly. Now that almost all the power of the Bai family army has fallen into the hands of Wu Ye, if General Wu refuses to go along with Wu Ye and Bai Jingrong, I'm afraid the days to come will be difficult." Sorry, please be careful."

Wu Jun said: "The Regent is not afraid that I will betray you?"

Xie Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "What good will betraying this king do to the general?"

Before Wu Jun could answer, Xie Yan said slowly, "This is the only chance for the Bai family army to return to the Central Plains. Please be careful, General Wu."

Wu Jun took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for your advice, Prince Regent. I will consider it carefully. It's just..."

Xie Yan said: "General Wu, don't worry, I don't like to force others."

"Thank you, my lord." Wu Jun breathed a sigh of relief and cupped his hands.
