Gone With The Bustling World Chapter 30: Chapter Twenty-Six

“Don't you say that we can't do that?”

“Why did you change your mind so quickly?”

The other generals were all frightened by Fang Junqian's decision. The room was full of noises, clamoring like a market. Then they shouted in unison, “Duke, please think twice!!”

Fang Junqian wasn't moved and only faintly relied, “We'll have a strong aid from the imperial city.”

The generals were overjoyed, “Will the court send over more troops?!”

Looking at the overjoyed faces, Duke Fang found it awkward to tell them that the strong aid was merely one person…

“Duke Fang, I'm wondering how many soldiers will be sent over?”

Fang Junqian coughed and raised a finger.

The generals all began to guess—

“One hundred thousand?”

Duke Fang shook his head.

“One million?”

Before he shook his head, a person refuted, “The court doesn't have that many!”

Duke Fang said with embarra.s.sment, “Only one person…”

“…”

“…”

“…”

The generals were dumbfounded.

On the official road of Kehan county, a white sedan chair was rus.h.i.+ng to the northwest border town.

Four men wearing black robes were carrying it, and another four guarded around the sedan chair. If there was a martial artist, he would be stunned because all eight men were top martial artists! However, they were willing to be guards of the person sitting inside the sedan chair.

From the way they looked at the sedan chair, it wasn't difficult to tell how loyal and respectful they were towards the one sitting inside.

“Childe, let's take a rest in the tea shed in front!” A clever likable boy suggested.

Uncle Lao stayed in the capital to take care of his pavilion as ordered. Zhang Jinya was supposed to stay in the capital too, but in order to witness this unparalleled war, he had tried out every means, begging, pretending to cry, pleasing, bargaining…everything except for threatening.

Because he knew better than anyone: Childe shall never be threatened!

In the end, childe couldn't dissuade him and had to agree.

Xiao Qingyu loved the boy very much and found it hard to blame him since he was so young.

The boy was also complacent for talking childe into it.

However, he regretted halfway: He didn't know the travelling was so exhausting!

Hence, he urged his childe: let's just go back!

Childe Wushuang lifted the curtain from inside, eyes cooling down, “If you want to go back, then you go alone. How could you achieve anything if you even couldn't finish one thing and give up halfway?”

His childe seldom pulled a face, so Zhang Jinya didn't dare to mention “go back” again.

Hence, Zhang Jinya followed all the way to Kehan county.

The faint voice came from the sedan chair, “Okay, let's take a brief rest here.”

The sedan was put down slowly, and Xiao Qingyu started the wheelchair to slide out of the sedan.

He came to the tea shed, escorted by the group of people.

Coincidentally, another group of men were resting under the tea shed.

The two groups didn't seem to expect each other, but they just met in this tea shed.

Xiao Qingyu saw at the first sight the young scholar sitting in the front of the group.

When Xiao Qingyu was regarding him, the young scholar was also looking back at Xiao Qingyu. Both of them were accompanied by a group of people, which was too conspicuous to ignore in the tiny tea shed.

“Isn't this world-renown Childe Wushuang?!” The young scholar exclaimed in surprise, and others heard him.

Xiao Qingyu was graceful and calm, “It's my honor to meet you, Qi Wuyou, the best advisor of Liaomeng.”

Childe Wushuang of Daqing?!

The best advisor of Liaomeng?!

“Clank!” “Rattle!” …

There came into sight reflecting blades dazzling like snow!

The two groups drew out swords at the same time, and the air turned tense immediately!

Liaomeng was located to the south of Daqing and had always been at odds with the latter.

As the saying goes, enemies and lovers are destined to meet each other.

“Hold on.”

“Wait a minute!”

The two superiors ordered simultaneously.

Ignoring the swords and sabers before him, Qi Wuyou still smiled kindly and amiably like crus.h.i.+ng into an old friend that he hadn't seen for years, “May I know where you're rus.h.i.+ng to?”

Xiao Qingyu said in a flat tone, “Don't bother to ask because you already have the answer. I guess you're returning to Liaomeng to deal with the riot in Guadi.”

Childe Wushuang won the first round.

Qi Wuyou's smile remained unchanged, “Paid by my emperor, I should do my part for him. It's my duty to do so.”

Xiao Qingyu, “You'll pa.s.s by Daqing on the way to Liaomeng. If Advisor Qi are going Sishui Pa.s.s, the same as me, why not travel together?”

Qi Wuyou, “Why not!”

Then, the two smiled at each other.

Seeing these two resourceful men setting up against each other, their guards all involuntarily began to sweat…
