"Jiang Yi!"

The door was pushed open vigorously, and Qi Li stepped in. Presumably, he was awakened from a dream, and his dark hair, usually tied in a crown, was only tied with a hair tie at this time.He frowned tightly, his face was not very good, but he was not flustered.

"How? Where did the bandits attack? Are there any casualties among the people?" Jiang Yi hurriedly put on his clothes and asked while wearing his belt.

But there was no answer.

When he looked up, he saw Qi Li showing suspicion, "How do you know it's a bandit?"

"I, I also heard someone shouting just now." Heart tightened, Jiang Yi replied indiscriminately, but at this time there was a shrill cry from a distance, shouting "The bandits are here, run away."

"I don't know, but people have already been asked to resist. You should quickly become a jade pendant, so I can protect you." Qi Li should have believed it, and urged him.

Jiang Yi shook his head, "How to explain to them that I'm missing? Let's go, I'll go and see with you."

As he said that he was about to push the door and go out, Qi Li took a step forward, Jiang Yi thought he was going to stop him again, and was about to dissuade him, but his hands were wrapped in warmth.

"Let's go." Qi Li led him and pushed open the door.

There were flames everywhere outside, mixed with the sound of clashing knives and guns, and the crying of children... The figures in the distance were chaotic, and they seemed to be running in one direction.

But in the face of all this, Jiang Yi has no anxiety or fear in his heart.The temperature in the palm of the hand seemed to turn into substance, turning into an indestructible protective shell covering Jiang Yi in it.Neither the icy wind gouging his skin nor the distant screams tearing at his heart could hurt him.

He followed the figure in front of him all the way, and only had that person in his eyes.

"My lord." The two met Xiao Qi, the leader of the guards, who was from the palace. He watched a group of people in front of him move to a safe place under protection, turned around and began to explain the situation to Qi Li.

"The bandits are coming fiercely and there are a lot of people. Half of the shops and houses in the city have been looted. The people were evacuated in time, and they were not harmed. It is still wise for the prince to let us take turns at the city gate every day."

Qi Li nodded slightly, and analyzed calmly, "This bandit usually only robs the money of passers-by, and the city below the mountain has always been well watered. Today, I am afraid that it has been planned for a long time. The robbery is not enough to eat, so I simply occupy a city. Be king."

"Where are the brothers who stopped the bandits? How is the battle going?" He asked again.

"When I came here just now, I saw that they had already suppressed the bandits, so I think they should be able to calm down immediately." Xiao Qi said.

Jiang Yi listened and breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that there should be no problem with Qi Li's careful deployment, so there was no need for the ambush army to be dispatched.

He touched the fire whistle hidden in his sleeve and thought.

But before he was completely relieved, he saw a guard running hurriedly not far away, and came up to him, "It's not good, my lord, a large number of bandits have entered from the south gate!"

After saying this, the three people present were all suffocated. Before they could react, another person came running from another direction, panting heavily, and said, "My lord, I can't hold back anymore!"

The situation took such a sudden turn that no one expected, Jiang Yi's heart was beating like a drum, and he began to panic.

"What's going on? Which team is guarding the South Gate?" Qi Li was still calm, but his tone dropped to freezing point.

"My lord, it's the Imperial Forest Army." Xiao Qi replied.

Qi Li didn't speak, but Jiang Yi felt that the strength in his hands was gradually increasing. He looked sideways, and the jaw line of Qi Li's well-shaped profile was tightened, and anger rose in his eyes.

After a long while, he heard the people around him take a deep breath and say: "Xiao Qi, you take half of the people from the palace with me to the south gate, and the other half guard the place where the common people are placed. If you can't beat it, you must guard it. !"

Immediately afterwards, he pulled Jiang Yi out from behind. At this time, the three people noticed that there was such a big living person.But when he saw Qi Li holding Jiang Yi's hand, his expression was a little subtle.

"Go with him to hide among the common people and protect yourself." Qi Li pointed to the guard who came over from the city gate, and said to Jiang Yi.

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at the guard again, with a very serious expression, "You must keep Mr. Jiang safe. If something happens to him...you won't be able to pay for it even if you die."

Qi Li let go of his hand, and his fingertips swiped away from the warmth with a hint of greed, forcing himself to turn his head and look away from Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi was arranged before he had time to express his opinion. An unknown fire rose in his heart, thinking that since this person said so, why didn't he protect him himself.

But he couldn't say that, so he could only let the guard lead him to a safe place.

As for Qi Li, he never said a word to him, nor looked at him again.

"Master Jiang, be careful where you step." Seeing that he kept turning his head to look behind him, the guard reminded him aloud, but Jiang Yi didn't seem to hear.

He looked at the three figures in the distance, Qi Li seemed to be arranging defenses for Xiao Qi and the guard, and after he finished speaking, the two nodded and started to move separately.And Qi Li walked to the distance alone.

There was a panic in my heart for no reason, as if all the strength in my body was about to be drained.Jiang Yi stopped, and the guard looked at him puzzled.

Without caring much, he took out the fire whistle from his sleeve and yanked it towards the sky.

"Hey -jump!" The light rushed, rushed straight to the sky, burning a dark night.

Jiang Yi didn't look back, but felt the distant gaze behind him.

"Let's go." He put away the cannon he let go and said to the guards.

Jiang Yi finally arrived at the place where the people were resettled. It was the county government office in the city. When he opened the door and entered, it was full of people.Some hugged their children and huddled in a corner and cried, while others hugged each other to keep warm.

Seeing him coming in, these people seemed to see a savior, and stepped forward one after another, surrounding Jiang Yi in the middle.

"Master Jiang, how is it outside? Is there anyone who came out without being arrested?"

"Do we have nowhere to go?"

"They robbed all my wealth, Mr. Jiang, what should I do!"

The noisy voices from all directions made Jiang Yi's head hurt a little. He raised his hand and pressed it. After everyone quieted down, he said, "Don't worry, the lord outside will not let him go. He will definitely help you rebuild Han in the future." State, and I promise, in a few days, you will have a better life than you have now."

His voice was high-pitched, and he hoped that these people would feel at ease after hearing these words.

Sure enough, the anxious voice became much quieter, and Jiang Yi took the opportunity to ask the guards on the side to distribute the food to give these people material comfort.And he himself walked to the door and sat down, paying attention to the movement outside.

I don't know how long it took, it seemed like an hour, and it seemed that it was less than half a moment. Jiang Yi suddenly found that the originally indistinct fighting sound was much louder than before.

He thought it was a hallucination, but after checking carefully by the door, he found that the voice was really much closer, and Jiang Yi panicked instantly.

Didn't the ambush army come?Why was the bandit not blocked, but even closer?How is Qi Li?

"What... what's going on? What's going on outside?" He grabbed a guard, his chest heaved violently, his ears were buzzing, and he couldn't even hear his own voice.

The guard didn't know he was caught, and with a confused look on his face, he said to go out and have a look.

Jiang Yi nodded and watched him open the door to go out, but her heart was still hanging.

Not long after, the guard came back with a panicked expression and even sweat on his forehead.

"Go back to your lord, the front, the front block can't resist it!"

"Hasn't the manpower increased?!" Hearing his words, Jiang Yi snapped.

The guard was stunned for a while. In so many days, although he didn't smile very much, he gave people a sense of intimacy that was easy to talk to. This was the first time he saw him get angry.

"No...no." Looking at those angry brown eyes, the guard unexpectedly showed some fear for no reason.

Why?Why didn't the manpower increase, and the fire whistle was obviously released?If the army doesn't come, the south gate...

Thinking of this, Jiang Yi's eyes widened suddenly, and the words he heard earlier were connected with the questions in his head.

The south city gate fell, and the Imperial Forest Army was on duty... The army in ambush has not come for a long time...

In the end, Qi Su's smile flashed when he told him to "protect" Qi Li, Jiang Yi's body trembled, and he clenched his back molars.

God damn dog emperor!

After he figured it out, he opened the door regardless and rushed out, the soldiers behind him couldn't catch up at all.

Jiang Yi ran all the way, exhausting all his strength, his head was in a mess, but there was only one name like the faith engraved deep in his heart-Qi Li.

For the convenience of movement, he threw off the cloak he was wearing on the way, and ran towards the south gate with his sleeves rolled up.Gradually, Jiang Yi felt as if the air in his lungs was being emptied gradually, and the smell of blood leaked from his throat.

Fortunately, at this moment, he finally saw the South City Gate, saw the two sides fighting fiercely, but he did not see half of the Royal Forest Army.

Jiang Yi searched around, and easily found Qi Li.The man held a long sword in his hand, and his every move was crisp and neat, or cut the enemy's throat, or pierced the heart.

The blood splattered on his black clothes and was instantly unrecognizable, but when it fell on his face, it left a dazzling red mark.There was killing intent in his eyes, and evil spirit lingered all over his body, like a ghost dancing in hell.

Although the guards of Nanyi Palace were all elite soldiers, they were far outnumbered by the bandits. The enemies came one after another, and some guards began to lose their strength, and Qi Li also began to feel a little overwhelmed.

Seeing the ax in the hands of a bandit cut through Qi Li's sleeve, leaving a bloody wound, Jiang became anxious and ran straight towards the center of the battle.

Obviously, he was afraid of being tortured by Qi Li before, and also afraid of being questioned by the emperor, but at this moment he suddenly felt that death was nothing to be afraid of.

As if with spiritual perception, Qi Li looked this way as soon as Jiang Yi rushed into the battlefield.

After seeing it clearly, Qi Li's eyes were wide open, and he swung his sword to kill a mountain bandit who was attacking, and then ran towards that side quickly.

"Jiang Yi—"
