The group of people rode their horses away from the foot of Xishan Mountain and headed straight for the vast Xishan Mountain.

Obviously everyone is determined to get the sword worth fifteen cities. Only Xiao Chen is riding a horse and hanging slowly behind the crowd. He can't figure out what the meaning of this farce is.

!

There is no way that Cao Xun would give out the Loyalty Sword as a reward just for a hunt, nor would Bai Qi really fall in love with the Loyalty Sword and insist on participating in the hunt.

There must be another game between these two people where he can't see them.

Xiao Chen frowned and pondered. At this time, he really regretted not reading more books about saints and sages. The books were full of chapters about loyalty to the emperor, patriotism, and how to behave in the world. But he couldn't help but think that someone was really smart.

If you look back, you will see that there are intrigues and deceitful ways everywhere.

Xiao Chen is simply an open-minded person. If he can't figure it out, he won't think about it.

Anyway, as long as Yong'an is not touched, even the upheaval of the Wei Kingdom has nothing to do with him. Maybe he can take advantage of the chaos to take in a few wealthy women. Wouldn't that be the same bliss as the king of heaven?

Xiao Chen grinned when he thought of this, and led Wu Liang and the others to sit down next to a mountain stream in Xishan Mountain.

Looking down from the mountain stream, the mountains are covered with lush greenery, birds are chirping, and occasionally the roar of horse hooves can be heard, followed by the thunderous sound of bows.

The princes rode their horses to hunt, while Xiao Chen lay down and drank from the mountain spring.

When she was tired, she would lean into Sun Simiao's arms and take a nap while listening to the roar of the mountains. When she got interested, she could rub the beauty's delicate body, which would avoid Sun Simiao's shy scolding.

Suddenly, the sound of horse hoofbeats came closer and closer. Xiao Chen opened his eyes, only to see a black pegasus stopping in front of Xiao Chen.

In the Wei Kingdom, other than Xiao Chen, there is no one who owns Pegasus and can appear in Xishan at this time. You don't need to think about who it is.

On horseback, Bai Qi held a spear and looked sadly at Xiao Chen in Sun Simiao's arms.

Xue Wuwei looked wary and immediately protected Xiao Chen.

Turning over and dismounting, Bai Qi gently pushed Xue Wuwei away, then gave Sun Simiao a meaningful look and said:

"This, I guess, is the subjugated princess that Emperor Wei secretly raised in Kyoto!"

Facing this powerful and arrogant Wei general, Sun Simiao could not help but lower her head in fear.

Bai Qi looked at Sun Simiao behind Xiao Chen unscrupulously, and after a moment he sighed:

"She is indeed a troublesome woman!"

Xiao Chen slowly stood up and glanced at Bai Qi lightly:

"The general has gone to great lengths to seek the qualifications for this hunting business. Instead of chasing deer in the mountains and forests, he actually has the leisure and elegance to wander here?"

Bai Qi laughed: "It's just a loyal sword, I, Bai Qi, don't take it seriously!"

Xiao Chen's eyes darkened, and he thought that was indeed the case. With a chuckle, Xiao Chen said again: "Then if that's the case, I don't understand. Since General Bai has no intention of being loyal to the emperor's sword, why does he have to come to Xishan?"

Faintly glancing at Sun Simiao who lowered his head and said nothing, Bai Qi murmured:

"Just think that I'm here to save you!"

Xiao Chen fell silent. He was located in Yong'an and had five thousand elite soldiers. No matter how he looked at it, he was not the one who needed to be rescued.

Seemingly seeing Xiao Chen's doubts, Bai Qi smiled and said:

"Your Majesty, would you like to come with me? I will take you to see the magnificent scenery!"

Faced with the invitation from this arrogant and domineering general, Xiao Chen did not answer immediately, and Bai Qi just smiled and waited calmly.

After a while, Xiao Chen laughed and said:

"Xiao Chen is honored to be able to travel with the general!"

Hearing Xiao Chen make this decision, Wu Liang's eyes suddenly showed panic.

"My lord, you must not..."

You know, Bai Qi is a master who even the emperor does not take seriously. If there is a disagreement, Wu Liang has no doubt that Bai Qi dares to attack Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen, who had made up his mind, waved his hand gently, walked to Heifeng, got on his horse, and then said in a concentrated voice to Wu Liang and the others:

"You guys just wait for me here, I'll be right back!"

Bai Qi looked at Xiao Chen who was free and easy on the horse, with an unprecedented look of admiration in his eyes.

With a chuckle, Bai Qi got on the horse again, and with the sound of horse hooves, the two of them gradually drifted away.

Xishan Wenfeng Cliff is located at the top of Xishan Mountain. Wenfeng Cliff is thousands of feet high and towers into the clouds.

Regardless of whether it's sunny or rainy, the mountain wind is raging on Wenfeng Cliff. Although literati don't like to come here, they always like to write emotional and lyrical chapters here.

On this day, a jar of wine was placed on Wenfeng Cliff. Xiao Chen and Bai Qi were sitting opposite each other, with no one else around.

The mountain peaks were raging, blowing up Bai Qi's long black hair. Bai Qi turned a blind eye and poured a bowl of wine for Xiao Chen.

As the wine pours into the bowl, the intoxicating aroma of the wine immediately fills the air.

Xiao Chen, who has tasted countless wines, immediately smelled it. This was the best rosemary in the wine. Looking at Bai Qi's shiny silver armor, Xiao Chen murmured to himself:

"Not all troops like burning fire!"

Bai Qi, who has keen hearing, smiled slightly and poured himself wine while saying:

"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. If it's time to fight for life and death, other fine wines will lose their taste. Just like the girl that the Prince likes, she must have a distinctive personality to win the favor of the Prince, right?"

Xiao Chen grinned and thought to himself that although the wine was good, it could not be compared with the charming woman. From this glance, it was clear that Bai Qi did not understand women.

However, he did not say these words after all. Firstly, he wanted to give the famous general some face. Anyway, he would never like Fiery Burning in his life, and there was no need to really do it.

Forcing Bai Qi to study women.

Picking up the wine bowls, the two of them drank a drink together, like two old friends they hadn't seen for a long time. It was hard to imagine that this was actually the first time the two of them sat down to talk face to face.

For fourteen years in Kyoto, Xiao Chen always stood in the hall or in the corner, looking up at this arrogant general. Sitting face to face today, Xiao Chen suddenly discovered that the general who was like a god before was actually just a man.

That's what happened.

With one pair of eyes and one mouth, if a person's head is chopped off with a big knife, it will fall to the ground.

"Where are you talking about the scenery you showed me?" After drinking, Xiao Chen relaxed a little and asked casually.

Bai Qi pointed to the foot of the mountain cliff and smiled without saying a word.

Looking in the direction Bai Qi pointed, the mountain scenery at the foot of the mountain shrank countless times and came directly into Xiao Chen's eyes.

The temporary camp set up by Cao Xun was at the location pointed by Bai Qi. Looking closer, a drop of cold sweat flowed out of Xiao Chen's forehead.

I saw countless armored men crawling like ants in the jungle outside the temporary camp.

Xiao Chen could tell at a glance that those soldiers were the same soldiers who had come to Yong'an with Cao Xun before. There were so many people ambushing there. Their purpose and intention needless to say.

A look of enlightenment appeared in Xiao Chen's eyes, and he suddenly understood why Bai Qi had to go to Xishan to hunt, life or death.

If he really wanted to stay there and wait for the six princes to return from hunting, they would be afraid that all they would see was Bai Qi's cold corpse.

Killing Wei's most arrogant and domineering general in front of all the princes would have a shocking effect. You don't have to think about it to know how powerful it will be.

Cao Xun's game of chess today was really quite impressive. For a moment, Xiao Chen's danger to Cao Xun increased by two points.

In an instant, Xiao Chen supported his chin with his hand, and there was another look of confusion on his face!

"What else doesn't you understand, Your Majesty?" Bai Qi took a sip of wine with a faint smile on his face.

Xiao Chen shrugged, pointed to the foot of the mountain full of murderous intent, and said, "The way I see it, it was the general who saved me. Where did he come from to save me?"

Bai Qi laughed when he heard this, then pointed to the other side of the camp and said:

"Then look over there, Your Majesty!"

This time, Xiao Chen was completely confused. The mountain wind blew, and Xiao Chen, who had been warmed by the alcohol, felt like he had fallen into an ice cave.

Because in another mountain valley outside Cao Xun's temporary camp, a large white flag fluttered in the wind. Under the flag, thousands of soldiers were waiting for danger!

Xiao Chen finally showed a solemn look on his face, looked at Bai Qi and said:

"The general wants to rebel?"

Bai Qi was still smiling, but now there was a touch of teasing and ridicule in his smile.

"If the emperor wants to kill me, it is natural. If I want to kill the emperor, is it treason?" Bai Qi asked Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen suddenly fell silent. Perhaps it was because he didn't study well, but for the first time, Xiao Chen felt that Bai Qi's words made sense!

The word "rebellion" is a yoke that someone deliberately places on people's minds. If someone wants to kill you, but you still stupidly wait for death, then there is something wrong!

Seeing that Xiao Chen did not refute him, Bai Qi suddenly showed an unexpected smile. Waving his hand, Bai Qi said lightly:

"Don't worry, the world is in turmoil now, and Wei still needs Cao Xun, so it's not time for Cao Xun to die. But since he wants to kill me, I will always retaliate."

Standing up slowly, Bai Qi slammed the wine bowl in his hand off the cliff. From time to time, he heard shouts of "kill Zhentian" from the foot of the mountain. Then, a fire that shot up to the sky swept through the entire temporary camp in an instant.

The firelight and the setting sun on the horizon dyed most of the sky bright red.

Bai Qi suddenly turned back to look at Xiao Chen and chuckled:

"Your Majesty, do you think the scenery I showed you is beautiful?"

At the foot of the mountain, the ground was dyed red with blood, and it seemed as red as the sky.

Xiao Chen nodded and said:
To be continued...
