Let me ask, can that man tolerate a beautiful woman taking the initiative to throw himself into his arms?

Anyway, Liu Qi thought he couldn't bear it.

The evil fire below the lower abdomen suddenly came up.

He picked up Zhao Wenhui and prepared to execute her directly.

However, at this moment, Zhao Wenhui slid down Liu Qi's chest like a loach.

"Your Highness, please rest early."

After saying that, he ran out of the door without looking back, his face flushed with embarrassment.

Leaving now?

Liu Qi was slightly stunned, his mind was still immersed in the tenderness just now.

It feels really good.

Alas, after all, I am the only one left to bear all...

...

Early the next morning, Liu Qi finally took his troops and continued to march.

Although some soldiers were killed or injured in the process of conscripting bandits.

But among the bandits, some of them with lighter crimes and good skills were pulled into the army by Liu Qi.

After going back and forth, the number of troops was not only not reduced, but actually increased a little.

Coupled with the powerful general Luo Cheng, he alone can defeat

Thousands of troops.

In order to thank the prince for his kindness, and also to express my apology to the prince during these days.

When the army was leaving, Jiao Huang specially wanted to give part of the money collected during the bandit suppression to the prince to use as military expenses.

Of course Liu Qi didn't accept it

Jiao Huang and other officials also felt that the prince was an upright man who served the people wholeheartedly without asking for anything in return.

But they don't know.

Liu Qigang was thinking about it as soon as he got on the carriage.

"Who can spend such a small amount of money? If others know about it, they will think that I am a beggar."

"If you want to give it, give it to the whole army, one for each person!"

It's not that Liu Qituo is great, Bai Jinhan's income in just a few days completely exceeds the amount Jiao Huanxiang gave away.

The rest of the journey never stopped.

Starting from Yongcheng, we headed straight for Pingcheng.

And this trip lasted for six days.

...

Pingcheng!

It is the largest city close to the Xiongnu territory and the most important barrier north of Daqing.

Pingzhuang is a fortress below Pingcheng, and can also be understood as a pass.

If the Xiongnu broke through Pingzhuang Pass and dared to invade Pingcheng, it could be said to be a complete declaration of war on Daqing.

In the eyes of court ministers, a small pass like Pingzhuang will be broken if it is broken.

Although the Huns plundered some supplies and killed many people, they did not cause Daqing any injuries.

But Liu Qi didn't think so. Infringement is violation. How can there be any distinction between big and small?

A huge country is so provoked by a small country.

It is unbearable!

"Your Highness, there are so many people here!"

Zhao Wenhui was curious and pointed at the passers-by around her.

Although Pingcheng is located on the border of the Northland and has a dry and cold climate, the city is quite lively.

From here, you can see not only Koreans and Indians, but also many Huns.

Zhao Wenhui was surprised.

"Your Highness, why are there Huns here?"

Liu Qi smiled slightly and explained.

"War is war, and business is business. There is no conflict. Since the founding of Daqing, we have been doing business extensively, exchanging supplies with other countries, making money, no matter who it is, as long as it is beneficial to the people, don't be afraid. "

"Furthermore, for example, in places like Pingcheng, people do not have pastures, and the surrounding arable land is extremely scarce. It is difficult to maintain fiscal expenditures by relying on local taxes alone."

"Business with other countries is different. With more taxes, local people's pockets are bulging, which naturally alleviates most of the financial pressure."

Zhao Wenhui nodded. asked again.

"There are so many outsiders coming and going, it must be difficult to manage."

Liu Qi chuckled lightly.

"That's right!"

"When there are too many people, there will naturally be chaos. This place in Pingcheng is a mixed bag of fish and dragons. It can be said that there are people of all kinds."

"Of course, there are a lot of fun and delicious things. When you have time after entering the city, I will show you."

"Yeah."

Zhao Wenhui's face was full of excitement.

Apart from going from Luzhang County to Jincheng, this was her first time traveling so far away.

Following the prince along the way, what I saw and heard really gained me a lot of knowledge.

After a while, Liu Qi's army arrived under Pingcheng in a mighty manner.

The city gate was wide open, and more traders could be seen coming and going than before.

However, what Liu Qi didn't expect was that when they got here, there was no one to greet them.

That's all. Before the car entered, it was intercepted by a group of city guards.

"Who is coming?"

"How presumptuous! Can't you see with your blind eyes? This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's chariot."

Qin Wei's scolding did not change the attitude of the city defender.

The goalkeeper looked Luan Jia up and down and snorted with some disdain.

"Prince?"

"I'm sorry, sir. I haven't received the order, so I can't let you into the city for the time being. Just wait until I report it to the general and come to confirm everything is correct before letting you into the city."

A little city guard actually dared to intercept the prince and asked him to wait. Who gave him the courage?

As a bandit, Luo Cheng became angry at that time. He grabbed the doorkeeper by the collar and with astonishing strength, he lifted the doorkeeper up like he was lifting a chicken.

"Open your dog eyes and take a look. This is the Crown Prince Luanjia! The Crown Prince wants to enter the city, why do you need to report?"

The gatekeeper was frightened and shouted at his men behind him.

"Get this person for me!"

Good guy, it’s okay if you don’t let me go, but you actually dare to take the king’s people?

It’s really a bear’s heart and a leopard’s courage!

How could Liu Qi's violent temper be tolerated? !

"Luo Cheng, let him go."

After hearing the prince's order, Luo Cheng let go, and the gatekeeper sat down on the ground.

Liu Qi also immediately got off the carriage and arrived in front of the city guard.

"The king is here, who dares to move?"

"If you take another step forward, you will be punished as a treason!"

As soon as he said these words, no one among the attendants behind the gatekeeper dared to take a step forward, and even retreated a little.

The gatekeeper stood up at this time and looked at the prince blankly.

"The general has an order. Anyone who enters must be notified. I am just following the order!"

"Didn't your general tell you, my king?"

Liu Qi's sharp eyes seemed to have the magic power to shoot into the soul, making the gatekeeper dare not look directly.

But what Liu Qi didn't expect was that the gatekeeper actually answered.

"Of course the general knows, but the general said that even if the prince comes, we must go to the city to report first!"

Hearing this, Liu Qi sneered.

OK! OK!

This is so unclear. Are you trying to show off to this king?

Snapped!

Caught off guard, he slapped the gatekeeper hard on the face.

"You damn thing, are you not the general you are talking about, my Daqing general?"
