Chapter 176

The enemy's retreat did not let Qi Yan breathe a sigh of relief, because he knew very well that although Jili City had a moment of respite, it also meant that it would face greater danger and test.Watching anxiously after two days, more than half of the soldiers had been killed or injured. He really didn't know how long they could last!

"Father, I heard that the imperial court has sent an army to Jili City. If we persist for a few more days, we will definitely be able to wait for the army to arrive!" Qi Shuran looked at Qi Yan who was frowning, and comforted him.

"It will take at least ten days for the auspicious trip from the capital. Even if the imperial court assembles the army as quickly as possible, we will have to wait at least another five or six days. I'm afraid..." Qi Yan paused, looked at Aizi and Mo Shi beside him, and sighed, "Yan'er, Mo Shi, you two should leave Jili City! I don't want you..."

"Father, don't say any more, I won't leave you alone! If Jili City really cannot be kept, at worst, our father and son will sacrifice our lives to serve the country together. Mo Shi, you should go! You are not from the Morning Star country, so there is no need to stay with you." Let's die." Qi Shuran took Mo Shi's hand and persuaded him to leave.

Mo Shi shook his head, smiled and said nothing, with a firm attitude.

"Hey, good boys, you are all good boys, I don't know why His Majesty treats you..." Qi Yan looked at Qi Shuran and Mo Shi lovingly, sighed and expressed the biggest confusion in his heart.Ever since Qi Shuran and Mo Shi were kicked out of the palace by His Majesty, they never mentioned this matter. No matter how he asked, they both kept silent. He really didn't understand why His Majesty would be so heartless to them?What happened these days when His Majesty left the palace?

Mentioning the rain with the smoke, Qi Shuran and Mo Shi's eyes flashed with heartache at the same time.It had been nearly a month since they left her, and they missed her more and more every day.I can't forget her, I'm afraid they will never forget her for the rest of their lives, just hearing people mention her can make them lose their composure, they are really hopeless.They will never give up, they will never give up, they believe that one day she will be able to figure it out, they will wait, they will use facts to prove that they are not like her father or her brother-in-law, the true unforgettable love is not As time goes by, this love will only grow stronger...

Lowering their heads, the two of them sighed endlessly, their eyes were far-reaching, and their faces were filled with melancholy, as if they were caught in deep thoughts and memories...

Looking at Qi Shuran and Mo Shi, Qi Yan shook his head and sighed again.These two idiots, he could see their feelings for His Majesty, how could he not know.He seemed to want to say something, but seeing their sad and melancholy expressions, he hesitated to speak, and could only think to himself: Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why do you reject these people who are infatuated with you without regret?Lose them, you will regret it, you will regret it...

When the atmosphere was embarrassing and dull, suddenly the subordinates came in to report that someone had just sent the news that the imperial army had arrived within five miles of Jili City, and the county magistrate Qi Yan was asked to meet him.

The imperial army arrived so quickly, far exceeding Qi Yan's expectations. He was overjoyed and hurriedly asked his subordinates to invite messengers in.When the man arrived, the first thing he asked was "Your Excellency, you have worked hard! Who is the general who is leading the army this time?"

Who leads the army plays a decisive role in whether the war can be won!Looking at the current situation, the battle with Riyan Kingdom is the most critical, and we must not lose. If we send incompetent people here, the situation will be over!Qi Yan, who is well aware of the power among them, is most concerned about who will be sent by the imperial court.

"Return to Lord Qi, it's Your Majesty! This time, His Majesty is personally leading a [-]-strong army. Please hurry up to meet him, Lord Qi." The man wiped his sweat and replied out of breath.

The queen actually drove her own conquest?Hearing this news, not only Qi Yan was stunned, but Qi Shuran and Mo Shi behind him were also dumbfounded and speechless...

Qi Yan led Qi Shuran and Mo Shi, followed by all the guards in the city, and bowed and greeted them at the east gate of Jili City.Not long after, the sound of horseshoes and neat steps came from a distance, and soon, a mighty army appeared in front of everyone.The [-] troops lined up in an endless stretch. The whole team was well-trained, with the same pace, neat and orderly.

At the front of this army is a beautiful woman riding a black horse. She is wearing a black dress, an embroidered white cloak, and white boots.Her long draped hair is like splashes of ink, flying in the air along with the cloak, her clear and bright eyes seem to be smiling but not smiling, her demeanor is calm and indifferent, her every move and every shot is full of kingly demeanor, this woman is Chen Xing Queen of the country, the rain follows the smoke.

Qi Yan kneeled respectfully at the front, not daring to raise his head. Behind him, Qi Shuran and Mo Shi raised their heads slightly, peeking at the person in front of them who they missed day and night, and saw her with extraordinary demeanor and heroic demeanor, showing a kindness they had never seen before. Another kind of style, the two couldn't help but stare at her, completely forgetting where they were.It wasn't until the rain approached with the smoke, tightened the reins, and the horse neighed, that the two of them woke up. They hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look at her again.

"Sir Qi Yan sees Your Majesty, long live my king, long live, long live!" Seeing the rain approaching with the smoke, Qi Yan hurriedly called out to the queen.

"Qi Aiqing, please get up! How is the situation in Jili City? Has the lonely king ever been late?" Turning off his horse, Yu Suiyan took a step forward, personally helped him up, and asked about the situation in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, the Riyan Kingdom sent 13 troops to attack Jili City two days ago. Fortunately, all the soldiers fought bloody battles and resisted the enemy's attacks several times before they could keep Jili City. Now the enemy is retreating temporarily. , but according to my estimate, the enemy army is only breathing for a while, and a bigger attack may come soon." Qi Yan answered truthfully, and asked Yu Suiyan to inform Yu Suiyan of the current situation of Ji Li City.

Yu Suiyan smiled slightly and relaxed, it seemed that she came at the right time.She turned her bright eyes lightly, looked at the people kneeling behind Qi Yan, waved her hands, and said: "Everyone, get up! Now that you are in a battlefield, you can avoid these etiquettes if you can!"

Except for Qi Shuran and Mo Shi, seeing what the Queen said, the rest of the people slowly got up and stepped aside, lowering their heads, not daring to raise their heads to make a sound.Only Qi Shuran and Mo Shi who had been kneeling down were left in place.
