The king of Qin was defeated.

Hu Yun, the minister of the Honglu Temple, was a smooth person who was familiar with the ways of the world and was responsible for the exchanges between the Beiting Dynasty and foreign countries all year round.

In the eyes of Emperor Chen Li, Hu Yun was the best candidate to be in charge of this transaction.

While Chen Li issued an order, he sent someone back to Yuquan City to convey the news quickly. The court had agreed to pay the ransom and asked the Qin army to ensure the safety of King Qing.

A few days later, the messenger arrived in Yuquan City. After Wu Guan received the news, he felt mixed emotions.

Fortunately, he finally saved his life, but his family paid a huge price for it. His future was bleak, and he was afraid that he would not have a good time if he returned to the capital.

Before the court sent a new governor to take over, Wu Guan had to temporarily take charge of the affairs of Mozhou and cooperate with the imperial envoy Hu Yun to redeem Prince Qing.

Wu Guan ordered people to go to the posthouse to bring the Wu brothers to the prefecture, looked at the two brothers and said: "Now the court has agreed to the Qin army's request, and will send an imperial envoy to Mozhou to conduct specific transactions with the Qin army soon. One of you two will stay, and the other will go back to send a letter to Li Yichen. You must ensure that His Royal Highness Prince Qing is intact!"

After Wu Long and Wu Hu looked at each other, Wu Hu spoke first: "I will stay, brother, you go back to report to the leader."

Wu Long also understood that staying at this time would mean being a hostage. Before the transaction, he would probably be tightly controlled by the other party, and the risk factor was extremely high. However, this was not the time to be hypocritical. Wu Hu was impatient and careless, and he had to go back to send the letter himself.

Wu Long nodded and said to Wu Guan: "I will leave immediately to return to Daqu County to deliver the letter. You must ensure the safety of my brother, otherwise your Prince Qing will not be able to come back in one piece."

After the two parties reached a consensus, Wu Long immediately rushed back to Daqu County.

In the Daqu County government office, although Jia Xu is still unable to get out of bed, his injuries have recovered and he is in high spirits.

That day, Li Yichen, who received the report from Wu Long, brought Li Siye and others to the county office to discuss the matter with Jia Xu.

Hearing the news that the court had compromised, Jia Xu's eyes flashed with surprise, and he slowly said: "It seems that I still underestimated the status of Prince Qing in the eyes of the emperor. The court actually agreed to our conditions without hesitation."

Li Yichen nodded and said: "With these 500 million silver taels, the development speed of my Qin army will definitely take another step forward."

Li Siye said: "My lord, this Chen Qing is not an easy person to deal with. Do we really have to let him go? We have always been in opposition with the Beiting court. Letting him go is tantamount to letting a tiger go back to the mountain."

Jia Xu's eyes flashed fiercely and However, he also agreed: "General Li is right. When the time comes, we will get the ransom and kill Chen Qing to eliminate future troubles."

Li Yichen shook his head and said: "It won't be that simple. The court must be prepared. In addition, Wu Hu is in Wu Guan's hands. If something goes wrong and the transaction is not successfully completed, I am afraid Wu Hu will lose his life. Then, Wu Long and other soldiers who are loyal to our Qin army will be disappointed?"

Jia Xu thought for a while and said: "My lord, what you said is right, but I didn't think about it."

After several people discussed it, they did not disturb Jia Xu's rest too much.

After Li Yichen left, he immediately arranged for Li Shizhen to come and see Jia Xu's physical condition.

After a while, Li Shizhen walked out of the room and said to Li Yichen: "My lord, the internal injuries of the military advisor are now fine, but the rib injury still needs to be repaired. I want to prepare a kind of broken bone and regeneration powder today, but I searched all over Daqu County and found that I lacked a main ingredient, Shenggucao. I heard that it can be found in Yuquan City, the state capital. I am going to Yuquan City to take a look."

Li Yichen's heart moved when he heard this. Now that the war has subsided, he has Xin Qiji, Liu Changqing and others in charge of government affairs. He has nothing to do all day long. It is better to accompany Li Shizhen to Yuquan City. On the one hand, he can ensure Li Shizhen's safety, and on the other hand, he can go to see the situation.

Thinking of this, Li Yichen hurriedly summoned all his outstanding people to discuss.

Hearing that Li Yichen was going to the state capital, everyone tried their best to dissuade him. Li Yichen was now a famous leader of the Qin army, and his portrait was posted everywhere in the entire Mozhou. Yuquan City was now the capital of Mozhou and the enemy's lair, which was too dangerous.

Just when Li Yichen was about to give up, Li Chunfeng said, "If the lord really wants to go to Yuquan City, I have a way. I can refine a few illusion talismans. After wearing this talisman, it can change the wearer's appearance, body shape, and voice through illusion. Warriors below the Martial King realm cannot see through it."

Li Yichen couldn't help but be overjoyed

, immediately decided to let Li Chunfeng refine the talisman, and he would go to Yuquan City in person.

That night, Li Chunfeng refined the talisman and sent it to Li's house. After Li Yichen put the talisman close to his body, he instantly changed from a handsome boy to a middle-aged businessman wearing silk and with a thin face.

Li Yichen nodded with satisfaction. With this shape-shifting talisman, he could go to Yuquan City with peace of mind.

Li Yichen immediately arranged it and asked Dian Wei to select 30 elite soldiers of the Tiger Guard Army to pretend to be the guards of the business tomorrow morning and go to Yuquan City with him. Li Shizhen and Li Chunfeng would also go with him.

The next morning, Li Yichen was about to leave. Liu Yuting, who had overheard the news from somewhere, ran out and hugged Li Yichen's arm and said, "Master, I heard that you are going to Yuquan City. Can you take me with you? I have never been far away since I was a child."

Li Yichen wanted to refuse sternly, but looking at Liu Yuting's big watery eyes and expectant expression, he couldn't bear it.

There was no danger this time, so he took her with him.

In order to protect Liu Yuting, Li Yichen sent someone to notify Wu Song to meet outside Yuquan City.

In this way, a group of people drove a number of carriages to Yuquan City. In order to avoid trouble, they took a detour from Yihe Mansion.

Along the way, looking at the beautiful scenery along the way, Liu Yuting was very excited and chattered with Li Yichen non-stop. Li Yichen was also in a good mood, as if he had traveled through time for so long, and when he went out, he was either fighting or on the way to fight.

It was the first time for me to travel far away with the mentality of tourism.

After several days, the group finally arrived at the south gate of Yuquan City and met Wu Song.

The generals under his command were worried about Li Yichen's safety. Not long after Li Yichen set out, Gongsun Zan personally led 3,000 white horse volunteers to follow him and hid in the mountains and forests near Yuquan City.

Li Yichen looked at the majestic Yuquan City in front of him and couldn't help but sighed: "It is worthy of being the capital of Mozhou, a large city built for more than 300 years."

The entire Yuquan City is more than 80 miles in radius, and the permanent population in the city alone has reached more than 600,000. It is not a big city in later generations, but in Beiting, especially in the barren and barren Mozhou, it is considered a huge city.
