Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 175 Something unexpected happened
"Oh, alarmist!"

At the last moment, Lu Ji seemed to be clear-headed and refuted Mei Qian's words stiffly.

He firmly believed that Mei Qian said this deliberately to scare them.

But Mei Qian glanced at the fire in Lu Ji's eyes, and she knew she was talking about the other person's sore feet.

This man himself is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that his family will die.

Mei Qian's words about dragging everyone to death just now were really crazy, and even Chang An almost believed it.

Chang'an: Fortunately, Mei Qian is not the princess!

"Really? To scare you?
Your peace talks were successful and you sacrificed everyone in Jiangbei. How many years can you hold Xirong with you?
After a few years, Xirong has also been tempered by the resistance of Jiangbei's stubborn soldiers. If I beat you again, it will be like beating a three-year-old child~ You don't think you can train any more powerful soldiers in the past few years, right?

If he had this ability, he wouldn't have hurriedly crossed the river that day.

If I didn’t want to take action and drag you down together, you Jiangnan wouldn’t even have a chance to prepare, and you would be beating the child too~”

Before Chang An could draw his sword, Mei Qian heard a familiar voice shouting:
"Wow! You guys actually met with the rebels in private, you... ugh!"

As long as she opens her mouth and says that their peace talks have failed, the forces in Jiangbei will definitely not sit idly by and ignore their meeting.

How could Mei Qian not see the hope and hope for them in Wu Hui's eyes?

I thought to myself, this Lord Shangshu is so powerful!
"This……"

"But if the peace talks fail, once this summer is over, Xirong will mobilize troops in autumn and winter when the Yuanjiang River dries up! We will have no room for change..."

But do they have a choice?

As soon as Mei Qian finished speaking, Wu Hui and Lu Ji's expressions changed. They were about to tell Mei Qian that they didn't mean it, but they saw a black shadow suddenly jump out from the side.

"What? Although this is difficult, it is easier than fighting back the Xirong people, isn't it?"

"died."

As Wu Hui spoke, he looked at Mei Qian with expectant eyes.

Such a sacrifice of the near for the distant... Sir, is it possible that you also have no confidence in those soldiers in Jiangnan?
Or do you think that our sacrifice is justifiable? If we can fight with Xirong in the future and both sides suffer losses, then you will have a chance of winning by sending troops to the Northern Expedition? "

"how could I know?"

Once this spine is bent, it is not that easy to straighten it again.

With a plop, the black shadow fell to the ground.

Mei Qian even wondered if these people were pretending to be confused.

Wu Hui no longer wanted to hear the quarrel between Lu Ji and Mei Qian. As Mei Qian said, this peace talk was nothing more than drinking poison to quench thirst.

"But... Princess, after you have said so much, have you never thought that this peace negotiation is not something we can refuse if we want to?"

Chang An came up, felt his pulse, and announced the result.

Wu Hui came to his senses and was so frightened that he threw away the stone in his hand. He recognized the person in the moonlight and asked, "Why is he here?"

However, Mei Qian glanced at Lu Ji, then at Wu Hui, and still couldn't help but ask: "Jiangnan...are there no soldiers? If the Xirong soldiers cross south, shouldn't they think of their own soldiers first?"

Just now, when Wu Hui heard that he had been discovered, his mind went blank. He subconsciously picked up a stone from the ground and hit Chen Jizhong on the head.

Lu Ji snorted coldly and looked at Mei Qian again. Mei Qian twitched her lips and quickly denied it: "Aside from seeking his own death, does a person like this really think that someone is interested in him?"

After saying that, Mei Qian gave Wu Hui an expression that was hard to explain.

If she remembered correctly, Chen Jizhong was under Wu Hui, right?
Wu Hui: "..."

Would anyone believe him if he said he just pointed out a random person?

"If tomorrow's peace talks are possible, we will definitely not betray Anguo. But please, Princess, please don't forget that the people of Jiangnan are also the subjects of Anguo, so don't let them down."

Chen Jizhong, who unexpectedly rushed in to stir things up, also showed that they were not safe here. Lu Ji's previous yin and yang aura was immediately put away after this experience.

This is just this guy, he has to be kidnapped, and he has set up a good persona for himself.

Mei Qian curled her lips: "It is better to seek help from others than to ask for yourself. If peace talks fail, you'd better advise my uncle the emperor to train his troops and march southward."

After finishing speaking, Mei Qian looked at the unclear expressions of Wu Hui and Lu Ji, and curved her lips. Compared with how calm they were when they came, Mei Qian didn't give them anything in the end, which made them feel as if they were fried. .

It turns out that the people in Jiangnan were never the ones to really rely on.

Mei Qian looked at the backs of the two people leaving, and when the wind blew up, she said something vaguely: "Grandpa Huang is sick. Could it be that he is confused because of his illness? He actually gave the throne to Uncle Pingkang..."

What a coincidence, the other uncles were not around at that time, something happened, something happened..."

The words floated in the wind to the ears of Wu Hui and Lu Ji, and their backs were stunned.

···
"Let's go." Chang Ping said that she should leave here after the incident, and the others... just in case, Chang Ping and others would leave only after seeing the peace talks fail with their own eyes.

"This way."

Chang'an, who had witnessed what Mei Qian had done the whole time, took a deep breath, calmed down his chaotic thoughts, and was about to leave with Mei Qian.

Along the way, Mei Qian messed up her hair that she had managed to comb neatly before, and her face was once again smeared with dirt.

Chang'an was exploring the way ahead, and when he took a moment to look back, he was startled by Mei Qian's rapid movements.

"what happened?"

Mei Qian asked when she saw Chang An looking at her with disbelief.

"It's nothing, it's just that you became too fast."

"Isn't this what it should be? If you are slow, you will be gone."

After Mei Qian adjusted her outfit, she took the time to pay attention to her surroundings.

"Where are we going?"

"The king and his lord once told us that there is a secret passage in Zuixing. Even if the city is destroyed and rebuilt, this secret passage still exists. Our people have already explored it before."

"That's great."

Mei Qian originally thought that when they left the city, they would either go through the dog cave or take the moat, but she didn't expect that there was a secret passage in Zuixing County!
"Where is the secret passage?"

"The southeast corner of the city is where the private slaves of the young prince of Xirong are currently housed. It's not important. Go around the soldiers on the outermost perimeter. It's much looser inside than outside."

Mei Qian felt relieved when she heard Chang An's tone of voice was very normal. She followed Chang An and carefully bypassed the soldiers and sneaked into the so-called little prince's territory.

"Wait."

Just when Mei Qian and Chang An had just sneaked into Yi Ge's place, Mei Qian clearly saw a large iron cage beside the bonfire not far away.

In the iron cage, a man covered in blood was sitting there with his back leaning against the cage. There was a dead mastiff beside his legs.

"That is……"

Mei Qian's sudden stop startled Chang'an. Changan turned around and saw Mei Qian running in the other direction.

"Mei Qian!"

Mei Qian's behavior frightened Chang An to the point of almost shouting. He shouted lowly. Seeing that Mei Qian kept walking, Chang An glanced around and saw that no one was around before he bravely followed.

As soon as he went there, he saw Mei Qian standing directly in front of an iron cage.

"Cang?"

Mei Qian's voice made Cang Cang's half-closed eyes suddenly open. With just one glance, even Mei Qian herself didn't expect that the other party would call her name right away.

"Qian...you..." Cang's eyes turned to Chang'an beside Mei Qian. He originally wanted to ask "Why are you here" but stopped asking now.

"Let's go."

After staring at Mei Qian's gray face for a long time, Cang finally chose to say this.

From the first day he saw Mei Qian, he knew that Mei Qian did not belong here.

Mei Qian lowered her head and looked at Cang so seriously for the first time. Under the light of the fire, Mei Qian was shocked to find a faint blue light in Cang's "black eyes".

Mei Qian suddenly thought in her mind that Cang was not from Anguo.

Mei Qian looked down at the mastiff that died next to Cang's legs again. Although she didn't understand why Cang was treated like this, from the previous situations, Mei Qian understood that there was a conflict between Cang and Xirong.

"Chang'an, do me a favor."

"what?"

Chang'an watched Mei Qian and Cang, who had a strange identity and was abused by the Xirong people, from beginning to end. When he heard Mei Qian speak, she actually asked him to cut off the lock.

"Hurry, we don't have time!"

It was clearly Mei Qian who came here on her own, but she still thought she didn't have enough time?

Chang'an curled his lips inwardly, but he also knew that there was no time to delay at this time. Who knew if someone would come from the area immediately?

He drew his sword and cut off the chain with one force. The next second, Mei Qian urged him to leave the place without looking back.

Chang'an lost his temper because of Mei Qian's urging actions.

Mei Qian was finally leaving, so he naturally didn't waste any time. He quickly turned around and left with Mei Qian. He didn't notice at all that when he cut off the iron lock of the cage, Mei Qian took out a Xirong Bend in the blind spot of his vision. The knife was thrown directly to Cang...

Mei Qian: If you have a big vote, just leave!
Cang: Help Qian heat up the lunch box.
