Chapter 134 Trapped
Chapter 134 Trapped
Qi Zhan's gaze was more focused on Wei Chu, An Qi and the other people as well as old Master Jiang Yuandao. He then lowered his eyes to glance at his son who was grinning happily.
Qi Zhan asked, "Mr. Wei, can you please excuse me for a moment?"
Qin Chaoyan raised an eyebrow and looked at Wei Chu. Jiang Yuandao stood aside with his hands behind his back, looking calm and composed.
Qi Cheng raised his eyes to look at Qi Zhan and asked, "Father, is there anything you want to talk about? Can't we talk about it here?"
Zheng Li below secretly gave Qi Cheng a thumbs up in his heart. He was worthy of being the marshal's biological son. He was brave and could even raise curious questions about his words.
Normally, these people don't dare to talk to Qi Zhan. It's because the marshal always has a cold face and looks intimidating.
However, despite their fear, the nearly 50,000 soldiers in the Qibei camp respected Qi Zhan from the bottom of their hearts.
Wei Chu also said: "King Zhan, if you have anything to say, you can talk about it here. We all discuss things together."
Zheng Li's eyes widened even wider than before. What was this Lord Wei from Kyoto talking about? Did they all have something to discuss?
Zheng Li glanced at the children at the back for a few times. When they heard Wei Chu's words, they puffed out their chests happily.
Isn't this a bit too much? Zheng Li frowned and thought secretly. Little did he know that at this moment, his top leader Qi Zhan had the same idea as him.
Qi Zhan looked at Wei Chu's firm attitude, the attitude of their group as if it were nothing, and the agreement from his own Qi Cheng.
"Yes, father, if you have anything to say, just tell us together. We are in the same group, so of course we have to listen to what we have to say together."
Qi Zhan's eyebrows twitched. He looked at the group of people in front of him, old and young. Except for Wei Chu and the other martial artists, the others looked thin and weak.
I don’t know how this group of people came all the way from Kyoto to Liangcheng.
He raised his hand and pressed his brow, then looked at Wei Chu, but he didn't see any intention of changing his words.
Qi Zhan said: "Alright."
"You've worked hard all the way here. Stay in the mansion tonight and have a good rest." Qi Zhan said, "I'll send someone to take you out of the city and back to Kyoto early tomorrow morning."
"Why, father? We just arrived. Are you going to chase us away?" Qi Chengfa asked. He looked at Qi Zhan without waiting for his answer.
Qi Cheng snorted, shook off his hand, and trotted back to the team. He folded his arms across his chest and looked at Qi Zhan.
"We will go back on our own if we want to. You don't need to send anyone to take us back. Also, you don't have to worry about how long we stay in Liangcheng." Qi Cheng was angry. He reached out and grabbed Qin Chaoyan's hand and said, "Master, let's go to the inn and not stay here."
"Xiao Cheng," Qi Zhan said, "stop making trouble, listen to your father and leave early tomorrow morning. No, you guys take a rest and leave tonight."
"We're not leaving!" Qi Cheng responded with his neck stiffened. The child was almost crying with anger.
He was originally very happy to meet his father whom he hadn't seen for a long time, but after staying for only a short time, his father sent people to drive them away.
Yes, in Qi Cheng’s heart, Qi Zhan wanted to drive them away!
Qi Zhan twitched his lips, but didn't know how to explain. In the end, he even planned to let Qi Cheng misunderstand him like this.
"No matter what, all of you have to leave tonight."
Qi Cheng's eyes were red. If Qi Zhan was not in front of him, he would have cried out loud. But when Qi Zhan was there, he held his breath and did not cry, but his eyes became redder and redder.
Qin Chaoyan sighed and looked at the man in front of her.
"Prince Zhan, what happened?" she asked, "If I'm not mistaken, you drove us away for our safety, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Chao's face showed a trace of embarrassment. Oops, Qi Cheng had made him speak lamely.
However, she had a tense expression, and no one except Wei Chu could see her embarrassment.
When people heard Qin Chaoyan's words, their expressions varied.
Qi Zhan and Zheng Li were surprised that Qin Chaoyan would notice this. Wei Chu and Jiang Yuandao's expressions did not change at all, as they had already guessed this.
Jiang Guangbai, Qi Cheng and others used their imaginations. Jiang Guangbai looked at Qi Zhan with admiration, imitating the way of praise he had learned from Qin Chaoyan in the past few months. He praised: "Prince Zhan, you are such a good father."
Qi Zhan was a little stunned by his praise. No one had ever praised him like this before. A good father?
Qi Zhan looked at Qi Cheng beside Qin Chaoyan and thought: He is not a good father. He even spends very little time with him.
Qi Cheng lowered his head and thought about this and that for a while, then he raised his head and looked at Qi Zhan, wanting an answer.
"Father, is this true? You are going to have a war, right? You are worried about us, so you want us to leave, right?"
Qi Zhan pursed his lips. "If you have anything to say, you can speak up," Wei Chu said. "No matter what happens, we will discuss and make decisions together."
Jiang Yuandao also said leisurely: "Don't always treat these children as children, they are students of Yingtian Academy."
Qi Zhan didn't understand what Jiang Yuandao meant, but he knew the attitude of Qin Chaoyan and his group.
He pressed his eyebrows and said, "Two hundred thousand Beisha troops are gathering outside the city. Our army only has fifty thousand soldiers. In the battle last month, many soldiers were seriously injured. The actual combat strength is only more than forty thousand people."
"There has been no news from the people sent to Dacheng to request support."
The time for traveling between the two cities has passed, and Qi Zhan and others have already had a vague answer in their hearts. The person who sent the letter must have met with an accident.
Qi Zhan said: "It is very likely..."
At this time, a burly soldier came up to him in a hurry and whispered something in Qi Zhan's ear.
Qi Zhan's expression changed, and he instructed Zheng Li, "Zheng Li, settle them down and come over later."
"Yes, Marshal."
Watching Qi Zhan hurriedly leaving with the big man, Zheng Li looked at Qin Chaoyan and the others and said, "Everyone, please come this way."
Wei Chu and Qin Chaoyan met each other's eyes and said, "I'll go take a look."
"it is good."
As he spoke, Wei Chu followed Qi Zhan's footsteps and quickly disappeared from Zheng Li's sight.
Zheng Li looked at Wei Chu's disappearing figure and wanted to chase him, but when he turned back, he met the eyes of Qin Chaoyan and the others. Forget it, he thought, it would be useless for Wei Shaoqing to chase him, he would definitely be stopped.
So Zheng Li continued to complete the task assigned to him by his marshal. After he took the man to the side courtyard, he told him everything he could think of, and then left.
After a while, Wei Chu came back.
"How is it?" Qin Chaoyan asked. The others' ears perked up and their eyes fell on Wei Chu.
"Liangcheng is trapped."
