Yang Qi shook his head.

"Not sure who they are. But their identities are not simple."

The main task assigned to him by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was to protect He Qiudi's safety, no matter when and where.

He was the most outstanding secret guard in the Eastern Palace. The Crown Prince assigned him to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince assigned him to guard He Qiudi.

At first, he didn't understand.

Later, he understood.

So his first task was to protect He Qiudi.

After Yang Liu left, he came to stop He Qiudi from taking risks.

He Qiudi frowned. "It can't be that they are spies from the Western Rong who are hiding in the Great Zhou territory in Lizhou City? They came to Shiliu Village to cooperate with the Western Rong army hiding in Fenghuang Mountain?"

Yang Qi suddenly realized.

"It is very likely. Let's go, Miss Qiudi, and return to the He family. I will ask Yang Liu to arrange for someone to investigate the Li family, and then arrange for someone to go to the military camp to inquire about the situation of the Xirong people in Fenghuang Mountain."

"it is good."

The group of Xirong people who fled into Phoenix Mountain hid themselves and relied on grass roots, wild beasts and other things in the mountains to survive for a while.

Therefore, the defender of Ningyuan County sent people to encircle and suppress the rebellion, but the effect was not good.

It is said that Feng Shiyan has replaced a young general to carry out the encirclement and suppression, and he seems to be the descendant of the loyal and brave general named Chen Rongjing.

He Qiudi never dared to slack off when it came to such matters.

She silently returned to the He family. On the way, she met Yang Liu who had changed into night clothes and rushed over.

Yang Liu saw Yang Qi and asked, "Why did you come out?"

Yang Qi said: "There is something unusual in the village, in the Li family, you ask someone to investigate, and then send someone to the military camp in Phoenix Mountain to ask about the situation in the mountain."

"it is good."

After Yang Liulai followed He Qiudi, Yang Qi disappeared quietly into the night.

Coming and going without a trace.

He Qiudi couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

Her alertness has always been quite good, but she was completely caught off guard by Yang Qi's approach.

Is it a problem with this body, or is Yang Qiqiang going too far?

Yang Qi doesn't want her to discover him, so she can't discover him no matter what?

Strange.

Where did Yang Qi hide during the day?

Also, when they were in Lan County, they were so busy, and they fought from Lan County to Wei County. Was he there the whole time?

But she didn't notice?

It can even be said that she had always wanted to meet Yang Qi, but Yang Qi had always been by her side, but she didn't know?

That’s good enough!

I'll ask Yang Qi some other day how I managed to hide myself so well that I could avoid her eyes.

After returning to the He family, He Qiudi's mood was up and down. After a whole day of hard work, she was tired. After washing up, she went to bed early.

Let's go to the city tomorrow.

It would be better if the soap business could be restored as soon as possible.

If it really doesn't work, just sell it to Licheng and Kuncheng. In short, there are always more solutions than problems. The He family can't just sit back and eat up all the resources just to fight the Western Rong people.

She's been in good form lately.

Good sleep quality.

I soon fell asleep peacefully, and suddenly, I heard a loud "bang" and then a voice called "There's an assassin!"

It’s Yang Liu!

He Qiudi suddenly opened his eyes and saw the light outside the window illuminated by the fireflies of the fireworks.

At this time, inform others that Pomegranate Village was attacked.

Outside the window, there was the sound of "ping pong pong" of weapons clashing.

"what!--"

Some female relatives were frightened and screamed loudly.

He Qiudi opened a corner of his window, took out his military crossbow, and raised the crossbow as he looked at the dozen assassins in the courtyard who were fighting with Yang Liu, Yang Jiu, three other guards, and several people dressed as guards whom He Qiudi had never seen before.

"Ms. Qiudi."

Yang Qi's voice sounded again.

He Qiudi couldn't help but close his eyes: "You...you won't go to help?"

"Yang Liu can handle it. This group of people looks more like assassins sent by the emperor's uncle. They should be coming for you. If you fire your crossbow now, they will lock onto your direction and will do their best to catch you."

He Qiudi was somewhat puzzled: "Why did you arrest me?"

"Threate your Highness to withdraw. Your Highness has surrounded the Xirong army and trapped them in the mountains at the border of Lan County and Jinshan County. There is a lack of food and water in the mountains. It won't be long before they run out of ammunition and food and surrender without a fight if they don't break out. The Queen and the King's uncle must not want to see this situation, so they threaten your Highness and force him to withdraw his troops back to Lan County."

Before the Western Rong people came to attack Lan County, most of them hid in the mountains on the border of Lan County and Jinshan County.

But at that time, the two armies had not yet confronted each other. Feng Shiyan did not know the number of enemy troops and was worried about an ambush by the Western Rong army, so he did not rush forward.

After the two armies fought, the Western Rong were defeated and suffered heavy casualties. Feng Shiyan found out the details and knew that all the garrisons of the Great Zhou had arrived. Naturally, he dared to lead his troops to surround the mountains at the junction of the two counties.

Surround but don't attack.

The Great Zhou could transport food and supplies through Lan County, but the Western Rong army was exhausted and trapped among the mountains, unable to break out.

During several attempts to break out, they encountered traps and suffered heavy casualties.

At this time, they were trapped in the mountains, living a hard life, and trying to find a way to break through.

He Qiudi was annoyed.

Why did you come to arrest her?

She is just a weak woman. How can she influence the war between the two countries?

Are these uncle-in-law and queen a little bit out of their minds?

but.

He Qiudi still didn't release the military crossbow.

Who knew, at this moment, He Qingshu suddenly rushed out from the opposite room.

She screamed, "Ah ah - don't catch me, don't catch me! -" and Wei Sixian had to come out of her room and take He Qingshu in.

"Shut up!"

Wei Sixian scolded!

He Qingshu didn't know what had stimulated her, but she actually held her head and screamed.

The more Wei Sixian pulled her, the further she ran out.

In the courtyard, several assassins were beaten back step by step. They were about to retreat outside the courtyard, but then He Qingshu ran out frantically. The assassins saw that she came out of the main house of the He family. They saw that she was about the same age as the person they were looking for, and her appearance was also very similar. They winked at each other, and several assassins tried their best to fight against Yang Liu and the others, while protecting one of the assassins as they attacked He Qingshu.

"Qingshu!"

Wei Sixian couldn't help but shout out.

Unfortunately, it's too late!

The assassin was also stunned when he heard the sound, but his grasping hands had already grabbed He Qingshu's shoulders. He pulled her over with force and strangled her neck with his powerful wrists.

"Stop it! Otherwise, I will strangle her to death!"

Hostages in hand.

Both sides called a ceasefire.

None of Yang Liu's men were seriously injured, but not only were all the assassins injured, two of them were killed.

The battle started from the moment the fireworks started scattering and Yang Liu shouted that there was an assassin. In just two minutes, the battle was so brutal.

Although Yang Liu and several guards did not take action again, they surrounded He Qingshu and several assassins in a well-trained manner.

Yang Liu said with a sullen face: "Release Miss Qingshu. Otherwise, you will be killed without a complete body!"

"Let us go, otherwise, she will die!"

Yang Liu said: "Impossible!"

Wei Sixian rushed out of the main room and shouted, "Let them go, let them release Qingshu! He Qiudi, why don't you come out? Do you want to watch your niece being killed by the criminals? They only listen to you, come out quickly!"
