The two turned their gazes to the corner of the wall at the same time.

A slender hand picked up the hairpin on the ground, looked up, and saw the two of them.

Shen Ye let go of Minzhen's hand suddenly, "Wanqing..."

Before she finished speaking, Qin Wanqing answered with a normal expression: "Your Highness, the people in this Eastern Palace belong to you. You don't have to dodge what you want to do, and I... will not interfere with you."

The woman in front of her looked so calm that she couldn't be more calm, as if she was looking at a stranger. Shen Ye knew that she was such an indifferent person, but for a moment, he felt something strange.

Seeing this, Minzhen hurriedly explained: "Crown Princess, you... don't get me wrong, it's not what you think, the relationship between the maidservant and His Highness..."

Qin Wanqing looked at the lovely and pitiful woman in front of her. She looked so weak, but the provocation in her eyes was hard to ignore.

"What's going on between you and His Highness has nothing to do with me. There's no need to explain it. Just do what His Highness asks you to do." After she finished speaking, she turned around and left with a calm expression.

Such an indifferent and easy reaction made Minzhen stunned for a moment. She originally thought that Qin Wanqing should be difficult to deal with, but she never thought about it... She seemed to be completely unconcerned.There was a trace of turbulence, she...read it right.

Just as he was thinking, Shen Ye's voice came from beside his ear, "Do you want to stay that much?"

Minzhen quickly recovered, and nodded without thinking.

"So... are you willing to do whatever I ask you to do?"

Minzhen thought for a moment, then nodded again.

"Even if you tell me your father's whereabouts, are you willing?"

Minzhen restrained his expression and didn't say anything more.

Shen Ye turned his eyes slightly, and said: "Your father is just a defeated general. Knowing his whereabouts is of no use to me. I just asked casually. Do whatever you want, as long as you don't interfere with me.Otherwise... I will never keep you." After speaking, he quickly left here.

Minzhen frowned slightly, looking at the back of the resolutely leaving, a trace of bewilderment flashed in her eyes.

On the second day, the tournament was held as usual.

The venue was set up a long time ago. It was located in the military training ground outside the imperial palace. It was the largest military training ground in the capital city of Daliang, with a wide terrain.

When Shen Li and his party came over, the game was already halfway through.

Sitting in a wheelchair, he watched the game with little interest, and asked the people around him softly, "Has he returned home?"

Gui Yun quickly realized who the "he" he was talking about, nodded and said, "I went back last night, but...for today's game, I haven't heard of him coming."

Shen Li breathed a sigh of relief, "It's fine if you don't come, it's better to anger the emperor and drive him out of the Xiaoqi camp."

Gui Yun: ...

He wanted to ask, are you serious?after all……

"General Cui has not fully recovered, he should rest at home today."

Gui Yun carefully observed the duel in the center of the field, and sighed from time to time, "Although there are not many Duo Jue warriors, it can be seen that they are all elite soldiers and strong generals. After all, they are prairie men.We Great Liang...may have the upper hand."

Seeing that Shen Li's face didn't change much, Gui Yun couldn't help asking, "Master, are you not worried?"

Shen Li said, "What's none of my business?"

Gui Yun: "This..."

"I only care about what I care about. Whether others win or lose, what does it matter to me?"

It was he who forgot that Master's temperament was relatively free and easy, but the abnormality for a while made him almost forget Master's disposition.

It's just that he just said that he only cares about what he cares about, and for General Cui...

Gui Yun seemed to think of something suddenly, and shook his head hurriedly, trying to get rid of the outrageous thoughts in his mind.

"Why are you shaking your head? You think I'm wrong?" Shen Li glanced at him sideways.

Gui Yun hurriedly said: "No, no, you are right, it is the subordinates who are not paying attention."

As a feathered arrow pierced the sky, one of the horses in the arena was kicked heavily in the stomach by the Duo Jue warrior. In an instant, there was a shocking roar from the horse.

Several horses quickly became a mess. Seeing this, the Duo Jue warriors looked at each other, and drove the horses towards the flag planted on the highest point of the city wall at high speed.

That foot was so heavy that the horse was frightened and fell to the ground weakly, and the person on the horse also fell down.

Suddenly, the Great Liang soldier exclaimed, "General Pei!"

Pei Jianing rolled on the ground, and there was an instant "creak" from his ribs.

The soldiers made a gesture to come to help him, but Pei Jianing stopped him immediately, "Don't worry about me, go and capture the flag!"

The few people didn't dare to delay, they rushed over quickly, but they couldn't catch up with Duo Jue warrior.

Pei Jianing fell to the ground, unable to move even a little bit, his body was so painful and unable to exert any strength, the sweat on his face was like rain.

He looked at the red flag in the distance, frowning tightly.

Even if you catch up now...it's too late.

Just when everyone thought that Great Liang was sure to lose, someone took out a crossbow and shot at the group of warriors.

The crossbow arrows passed through the crowd extremely swiftly, one after another, and hit the Duo Jue warrior straightly.

Just when they thought they were almost shot through by the arrow, they found that the crossbow bolt hadn't pierced into the flesh, and the arrow... was broken off. Their bodies only felt dull pain, and there was no real damage.

However, this has already delayed their time. A man dressed in black drove a horse through the arena. With a firm face, he shouted loudly, "All soldiers, attack from the northeast!"

When passing by Pei Jianing, he stretched out his arm, Pei Jianing didn't care about being surprised, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was lifted onto the horse by that man.

When the soldiers saw a familiar figure, they seemed to have a backbone suddenly, and followed his order to catch up.

Before everyone could react, he quickly chased after him. In the huge training ground, the figure of that man was extremely clear and vigorous.

Even the confident warriors were shocked. They had already gained the upper hand just now, but at the most critical moment, someone suddenly appeared.

"Damn it!"

Gui Yun heard the person behind him gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words.

He slowly turned his gaze to see Shen Li's face.

"Master... General Cui, he... came in time."

"What else can he do besides being cool?" Shen Li's tone was mixed with anger.

It's hard for Gui Yun to answer the question again, it seems... General Cui always goes against the grain every time, and never predicted it...

On the other side, Qin Wanqing was sitting beside Shen Ye, absent-minded until the man entered the stage, she even tugged at Shen Ye's sleeve excitedly, and said in surprise, "I knew he would show up."

Shen Ye looked sideways at the charmingly smiling face of the woman beside him, and those bright eyes looked at the radiant person in the field without blinking.

"What's going on? Didn't you say he's dead?" Cao Zhongqian sat on the side, also shocked by the scene where Jin Zhao appeared, and glared angrily at Cao Jin beside him.

Cao Jin watched with his head sullen, without saying a word, his hand holding the handle of the knife gradually tightened, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
