Mo Xiangqi: The next imperial concubine is going to leave the pavilion [The finale]

Chapter 145 Letting Go 5
He Lianqing was never indecisive in battle, he would use the fewest troops and the fastest speed to frustrate the opponent's spirit, only this time when he faced An Zongbai, he was so peaceful for the first time.

"Lord Qing surrendered his arms and handed over his military power automatically. An Zongbo will not embarrass any of your subordinates." His voice was as majestic as thunder, and he clearly stated his position and conditions.

He Lianqing only smiled lightly when he heard this, and tightened the reins in his hand. "This is what I wanted to say to you, but you said it first. Father-in-law, I can also give you the same conditions, why don't you hold back?"

An Zongbai laughed loudly, firmly clenched the weapon in his hand, pointed at He Lianqing and said, "The winner is qualified to order the opponent!"

"Offended!" He Lianqing also smiled and pulled out the Nether Fire Sword from his waist, the whole body of the sword was burning red like fire.

The weapons collided, sparks flew, both of them were masters, the whole body was shrouded in sword aura, with sharp edges, wrapping the two of them together in one place, flying sand and walking stones, whoever approached, would be injured by the sword aura.

The troops of both sides are waiting for the battle. In the first battle, the main general will go out to fight, fighting with all their strength, and they all wait and see nervously.

In the countercurrent of sword energy, An Zongbai and He Lianqing exchanged a hundred moves.

"Boom!" There was a sound, the sword collided with each other, An Zongbai's mouth was numb, and he managed to hold the sword with difficulty, but He Lianqing easily retracted the sword a little, obviously his move was to let him pass the test.

"No need to do that!" An Zongbai's voice was cold and stern, he stood up straight and said, "King Qing's martial arts are very good, you will only hurt me if you are so lenient!" He slashed Helianqing's shoulder with the blade.

He Lianqing moved away, but a piece of his clothes were still cut off. He smiled and teased, "My father-in-law is supercilious. Although I promised her that I would be merciful, in the face of life and death, I will still be instinctive." Protect yourself first!"

An Zongbo was stunned for a moment, he naturally understood that He Lianqing said that she was Zixun, he listened to her persuasion, and he understood her concern even more, this battle must be fought, it concerns the whole Western Chu fate.

The friendship between Helian Yufeng and him for nearly 40 years, he has supported each other along the way from a soldier to the king of Zhennan, from a prince he didn't value to the king of Western Chu who has power over the world.

Until Concubine Shadow appeared...

From Beiyan's demise, she stepped into the deep palace to become a concubine, watched her walk through hardships step by step, and watched her become a mother for the first time.

She is such a beautiful woman, and he spent three years in the name of love, weaving a dream for Xie Hongying, and what happened after that will undoubtedly push her into a catastrophe.

He had been guilty for several years, and she never gave him a chance to make amends until Xun'er was eight years old.

"The love of the king, the love of the common people, I never thought that Helian Yufeng would love me alone. Since I was a child, I have seen intrigues in the palace and concubines competing for favor. I just want to save a place for myself. I can watch Mo Nian and Qing Er grow up, even if they live a mediocre life, as long as they are safe. If one day, I am gone, I need stronger strength to help my son Qing Er!"

"An Zongbai will do his best to protect His Highness the Third Highness."

"I don't care about that person's country, and I don't want to use it to tie my son. I am too strict with Qing'er. He is just a child, but he has to bear the burden that he shouldn't bear at a young age. King Zhennan, If you really want to make it up to me, please help him once at the most critical moment, once is enough!"

"I promise you!"

"Well, promise me one more thing!"

"No matter how ruthless that person is, as an emperor, he is indeed much better than my elder brother. He spent his whole life protecting Xichu. The country he built cannot be destroyed by others. When the people are displaced, I know the feeling of subjugation. If possible, Zhennan King can help him protect the people of Western Chu and let them live and work in peace."

"Then what about you?" Finally, he asked Xie Hongying. She had arranged the future for everyone, except herself.

Xie Hongying just said lightly, leaving him the last back in this life, and the voice floated softly, "I, it doesn't matter."

The emperor was critically ill, the crown prince was in power, and he ordered the third highness to be detained. He took action himself. Although it would cause misunderstandings, it was better than falling into the hands of others.

He has been reluctant to hand over His Highness the Third Highness to Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishments, because he is still not sure whether His Highness's life will be guaranteed after handing over.

He hasn't seen the emperor for a long time, and he doesn't know the safety of the emperor. He promised Concubine Ying to help the emperor protect the mountains and rivers of Western Chu.Never act rashly again!

Now His Highness the Third Highness was accused of being a traitor and expelled from Western Chu. The prince, queen and queen mother manipulated state affairs.

His Highness the Third Highness did not intend to fight for the throne, but the military power in his hands was something the prince was afraid of, so he raised troops to seize the military power, so as not to pose a threat to his crown prince in the future.

As His Highness said, in the face of life and death, people always instinctively protect themselves!
"Then King Qing can no longer be merciful!"

An Zongbai turned the blade, and the blade was majestic, facing Helianqing's red sword, and fought several moves, the two still couldn't decide the winner, but An Zongbai was rarely able to smile in his heart.

In the competition, He Lianqing's moves were fierce, but he was able to retract and release them freely. He was also fighting with all his heart, mastering moves, and in the end the competition was not about moves, but about state of mind.

His Highness the Third Highness is a sensible person, he has already figured out how to face it, he can fulfill his promise not to hurt him for Zixun, but in the face of this battle, he can do it wholeheartedly.

Kuangsha rolled up, and An Zongbai withdrew the saber as the last move, and the sword aura that permeated the surroundings flew away in an instant.He Lianqing also stopped in time and sheathed the sword.

"Father-in-law, today's battle will be a tie." He Lianqing asked An Zongbai with a chuckle as he turned his head on his horse's head.

An Zongbai still faced each other coldly, and said in a deep voice, "One day's truce, we will decide the outcome."

"Farewell to my father-in-law." He Lianqing nodded and cupped his fists, but An Zongbai turned his back on his horse and led the army back to the camp.

When he turned around, he felt a dull pain in his jaw, and his whole arm was slightly numb.He Lianqing's martial arts skills are strange, today's battle seemed to be a draw, he might have to heal his arm when he goes back.

When An Zongbai left and Helianqing returned, the army resounded with applause and praise, but he didn't say a word.

An Zixun let go of what An Zixun had been mentioning all the time. He Lianqing's tie against An Zongbai today boosted the morale of the army. It was also the first time she saw a different him.

As long as he is there, it seems to be able to calm people's hearts, as if he is a god-like emperor!

A sharp gaze swept over her, and An Zixun hurriedly lowered her head to hide among the sergeants.

"My lord?" Li Shen looked at He Lianqing and frowned.

"Take back the troops and return to the camp!" He Lianqing seemed to see a figure that moved his heart among the many soldiers, was it dazzled?She kept saying that she wanted to cut off the past with him, so why would she come here again?
"Tie, truce for one day." He Lianchen heard the report of the battle, but he was not surprised by the result. "An Zongbai is really old, and he has no previous methods. I heard that when he exterminated Beiyan, he slaughtered tens of thousands of people, but he never softened his heart." The minion's forehead reported.

The servant's face was covered with blood, and he knelt on the spot without daring to move.

"Why is Your Highness the Prince so angry?" Ji Yunshang came in from the outside and sat by the Prince's side.

He Lianqing looked up at him, and suddenly smiled and said, "Hey, it's rare that the palace doesn't summon you, so you come in on your own initiative." He got Ji Yunshang as a musician in the palace a few years ago, and he has an indistinguishable appearance , who was born three points more beautiful than the female family members in his mansion, and compared the old seven.

Seeing that he is docile and refined, with a good temper, he is especially trusted by An Zixun. Ever since he failed to follow An Zixun and came back, He Lianchen only felt that Ji Yunshang had changed something unusual.

"Today's battle, the West Chu Street knows alleys, and Yunshang entered the palace precisely for this reason."

"Didn't you think of another way?" He Lianchen leaned back leisurely, looking him up and down.It's true that he likes women, Ji Yunshang sometimes excites him more than women.

Stretching out his foot to kick Ji Yunshang's heart, watching him fall back unexpectedly and fall to the ground, he looked so embarrassed that He Lianchen couldn't help laughing again and again. "You can always make Bengong laugh. You are allowed to tell me why you came here."
