”Prince, Miss Xiao told me to pass this to you. You must first take a look at this before you go to the South Gate.” That person ran all the way while sweating profusely. He was so out of breath that he passed a letter to Su Qianhan.
Su Qianhan frowned and quickly opened the letter because he couldn't see what was written on the letter due to the angle. However, he could see that there was a small line of words on it.
Su Qian Han's gloomy expression suddenly stiffened when he saw those words, then his pursed lips trembled a little. After a while, he closed his eyes and let out a long sigh, ”Pass down the order, open a gap in the city gates and let some people in. It's time to fight back.”
The gust of wind saw that he had actually calmed down, and was very confused: ”Then what about Miss?”
”Tell them to protect Tadashi well. Whatever happens, they can't let Tadashi get hurt.”
Although the wind didn't know what was written on the paper that could change Su Qianhan's mind, it would be for the best if his grandfather could calm down. ”Yes, your subordinate will go right away and ensure the safety of wangfei!”
The wangfei was the wangfei that he had recognized.
Perhaps it was the name of the wind that calmed Su Qianhan down, but in the subsequent battles, he fought steadily from beginning to end. However, he had relied on more than a thousand people to kill almost 3,000 men under Su Qianxing outside, which was already a one versus three situation.
Other Side...
”Miss, what exactly is written on that letter? ”How can you be so sure that the Prince will listen to you?” Riko looked at the enemy army below the city gate that was constantly climbing up the ladder, and separated some of her attention from them to think about this matter.
”It's just like how I knew he would come because of my decision. Of course, I can think of a way for him to focus on the present. What's so strange about that?” Xiao Qinglan raised the jade pendant at her waist as she lightly said: ”It's nothing, I just told him that I will marry him after this matter is over.”
”So that's how it is.” Riko smiled as if she understood.
Everyone had seen how much the prince wanted to get married, so the young miss said that he must take the overall situation seriously.
”Alright, the things I asked you to prepare, have you all prepared them yet?”
”Don't worry, Miss. We've already prepared everything. We've brought all the oil from the Bai Clan.” As Riko spoke, she gestured to the people behind her to continue saying, ”We've already moved half of the items here.”
”Very good.” Xiao Qing then walked to the side of the city wall and narrowed her eyes dangerously while looking at those people climbing up: ”Pour those people down the ladder and light the fire.”
”Yes sir!” The moment this order was given, the surrounding people immediately understood Xiao Qing Ran's intentions. The people here were all members of the Han King's Manor, and since they had a tacit understanding with each other and were familiar with Xiao Qing Ran, they were able to completely carry out her orders.
In fact, Xiao Qing Ran didn't just want those people guarding the city gate to return to the other three locations to strengthen their defenses. More importantly, those people wanted to stay in the palace for a long time, or they wanted to become a different person so they naturally wouldn't listen to her orders.
The moment the oil was poured down, the flames were immediately set ablaze. Enemies' wails and hisses continued to ring out from below. Xiao Qingyi maintained her calm from start to finish, instructing the Residence's troops to use all kinds of moves to attack.
”Pass on the message that no matter how big the sacrifice is, we only need to guarantee that no enemy will be allowed to enter!”
The South Gate was a remote place to begin with, and there was no need for them to attack. As long as he could use these people to defend and buy some time for Qianhan and the rest, he would have won this battle.
”Miss, why didn't you call us when something like this happened? Mother Hua, I've been really bored recently. ”
Xiao Qing was frowning as she paid attention to the enemy troops below her when she suddenly heard the voice. She raised her eyebrows in surprise and turned her gaze over. ”Why are you guys here?”
”How can I not come after what has happened? Previously, Miss did not want us to get mixed up in the court and implicate us, so she did not let us do anything. Now that the enemy is here, we don't need to stay in the dark anymore, right?” Hua Niang walked over with her handkerchief in her hand, ”Miss, have you forgotten that we are all Miss's men here, no matter where Miss Liu Li Zhai or the Flower Pavilion is.”
Xiao Qing's heart skipped a beat. Although she did not expect them to do anything, she did not expect them to actually come over. This was really …
”Indeed, I already had so many tiger generals under my command. I had forgotten about them previously, but now that you've come, I can't let you return empty-handed.” Xiao Qing then smiled and raised her eyebrows, ”I see that you all are tired of staying in the Glazed Flowers Pavilion. Today, I will let you all relax. Go ahead and use your bare hands and feet to do what you want. I want to see how far you all can go.”
”Then miss will do.”
