Chapter 400 The Great War
Ling Chengji knelt on the ground, his face extremely pale.

The injuries on his body were in severe pain, and his knees were shaking faintly because of kneeling for too long.

Ling Chengji raised his head and looked at the black figure outside the house. In the dark night in the east, it seemed to be a motionless silhouette, blending with the night.

Ling Junxing had already stood all night.

Just looking at the border of Daqin on the other side, I stood all night in the severe cold of the winter night.

The black robe seemed to be frozen like thin ice, and even the wind couldn't blow it, but he just didn't feel the coldness of the night.

Since last night, when Ling Junxing led people to find this place, Ling Chengji, regardless of the injuries on his body, struggled to kneel down to plead guilty, and he has been kneeling until now.

During this period, he couldn't hold on anymore and almost fainted a few times. Jueying interceded for him, but it was as if he had never seen King Ling's trip, as if he had never heard of it, and he didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.

All that was left was Ling Chengji's extremely cold back.

Ling Chengji couldn't tell what was in his heart.

However, it was indeed his mistake to bring Qin Luoyu out without permission.

Right now he is still alive, staying in Xishu happily, but Qin Luoyu has fallen into Xiao Shangyan's hands.

Even if the second brother wanted him to die, he had nothing to say.

Maybe he shouldn't plead guilty at all, he should die and apologize.

Ling Chengji supported the ground and climbed up with difficulty. His legs were already so stiff that he was unconscious, but he still used amazing perseverance to forcefully move to the guard not far away.

The guard thought he needed help, and just as he bowed and saluted, Ling Chengji had already pulled out the long sword at the guard's waist, and swiftly laid it across his neck.

His movements were so fast that the guards didn't even have time to react.

But Jueying moved faster than him.

While his figure was flashing, Jueying snatched the long sword from his hand expressionlessly, and said coldly, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Ling Chengji's expression was extremely depressed: "It was I who harmed Yu girl, I'm sorry for her, I'm sorry for the emperor"

Jueying threw the long sword to the guards and supported Ling Chengji, who was almost unable to move.

A round of bleak daylight has already appeared on the horizon at this time, climbing up from the distant mountains little by little, gradually dispelling the darkness of night.

The teams in the distance were ready to go, and the horses neighed lowly, breaking the morning silence of this small border town.

When Ling Junxing finally turned around, his pupils were dark and cold, and when one looked into them, one felt chills in one's heart.

His indifferent eyes, almost without warmth, fell on Ling Chengji. He seemed to be looking at Ling Chengji, but also seemed not to be looking at him.

He spoke slowly, his hoarse voice full of bitterness.

He said word by word, "Brother, do you know that she is pregnant?"

Ling Chengji froze suddenly as if struck by lightning.

Even Jueying beside him had complicated eyes.

He just went to find Wei Wuji, why did things become like this.

Ling Chengji's face was pale, as if he had been hit hard, his body was trembling.

He kowtowed in the direction of Lord Lingxing, "Brother knows that I have committed a serious crime, but I want to die, and I will never complain!"

Ling Junxing did not respond to him, and when he got on his horse, the determination and coldness in his eyes had returned to the past.

The sorrow and pain that seemed to be lost last night have disappeared with the night, and what is left is only the invisible coldness and determination.

"Just begging to die—you're thinking too easily."

Ling Junxing reined in his horse, looked towards Ling Chengji, and said in an extremely calm voice, "I have reserved the position of forward general for you."

He was talking about me, and he was saying this in his capacity as the emperor.

Ling Chengji raised his head abruptly, with unbelievable ecstasy in his eyes: "Your Majesty, is Ling Kingdom going to declare war with Great Qin?"

Ling Junxing glanced at him, but did not answer.

Yet his eyes were the answer.

Xiao Shangyan insisted on finding his own death, insisted on provoking a war at this time, then the Ling Kingdom would fight with him!
*
Qin Luoyu followed Xiao Shangyan to the capital of the Great Qin Kingdom, and behaved very quietly, even docilely along the way.

She has dealt with Xiao Shangyan several times, and she has basically figured out Xiao Shangyan's temperament.

He takes the soft but not the hard, the more stubborn Qin Luoyu is, the more he suffers.

In the past, she went on a hunger strike and ignored Xiao Shangyan, but in the end, she was the one who suffered the most.

Qin Luoyu is a good learner this time, never disobeying Xiao Shangyan, and will never provoke him.

Not to mention going on a hunger strike like last time.

She would not wrong herself, let alone the child in her stomach.

Along the way, she voluntarily wanted to eat this or that, and when she was happy, she called Brother Shangyan and said a few nice words, coaxing Xiao Shangyan to obey her.

I don't know if she died once, but Xiao Shangyan's tolerance for her was too high.

He was more accommodating to her, even cautious, no matter what request she made, Xiao Shangyan never refused.

Qin Luoyu was even sure that when he arrived in Liyang this time, he might be able to coax Xiao Shangyan into allowing her to let her go sometimes.

She is now in Daqin, but as long as Ling Junxing finds Ling Chengji, he will naturally know her whereabouts and will try to rescue her.

So it's useless for her to worry now, it's better to take care of the baby and wait for the time.

Qin Luoyu had thought that Lord Ling's guild would send Jueying or dark guards to look for her secretly.

But she never expected that Ling Junxing's search for her would be so big this time.

Before they reached Liyang, the capital of the Great Qin Kingdom, the war between the two countries had already started.

It was the front line of Xishu that first ignited the flames of war.

Originally, the war on the front line of Western Shu had been basically pacified, but the Ling Kingdom suddenly launched a fierce attack again.

A few days later, the front line of Luocheng in Lingguo, the former southern Chu line, the northern Pingliang line, and the land bordering the Great Qin border on three sides, all fought unannouncedly against the Great Qin.

The flames of war ignited almost all around the Great Qin, especially the front line of Xishu, which was the most unstoppable, but in just over ten days, more than ten cities had already been defeated.

The destination of this army is very clear, and that is the capital of the Great Qin Kingdom.

When the first frontier urgent report reached Xiao Shangyan, Xiao Shangyan looked calm.

However, when urgent reports came one after another, Xiao Shangyan finally changed his face, and finally understood what Lingguo wanted to do.

The Ling Kingdom did not hesitate to use the power of the whole country to fight against the Great Qin, and was determined to put the Great Qin to death.

Xiao Shangyan could no longer send Qin Luoyu back to Liyang, and had to go to the southwest border instead.

No matter how obedient and obedient Qin Luoyu behaved, Xiao Shangyan still insisted on taking her along.

It really is crazy.

Qin Luoyu complained wildly in his heart, he would rather watch her die than tie her by his side.

However, she can only go with her, and she has no right to refuse at all.

Being closer to the battlefield of Xishu also means being closer to Lingjunxing.

Maybe, she can use this to find a suitable opportunity to escape, not necessarily.
