The Widowed Mother, a Valiant General

The more Lu Qing listened, the colder his heart became. Yu Mingchuan had provoked the evil woman. This was much more terrifying than a simple rival in love.

What Insect Valley Ghost Granny? She sounded terrifying. Even if she was a demon that drank blood, she was still better than someone who played with bugs.

Looking for a handsome man? That Yu Mingchuan …

"No matter what kind of bugs it is, they are afraid of fire."

Unknowingly, Yu Mingchuan had already appeared behind Lu Qing. Although Lu Qing's expression was still the same, Lu Qing was able to see the killing intent in his eyes.

The sky darkened, and a few snowflakes fell by chance. Quite a few soldiers had been arranged to ambush them within the nearby dry grass, while there were only three people in the large open area in front of Jade Gate Pass.

There was a small plate, a pot of grape wine from the Western Regions, and two luminous cups.

Yu Mingchuan was dressed in an embroidered robe, and his hair was casually tied up behind his head. Lu Qing was wrapped in a fox fur coat, nestling into his arms.

Birgitta knelt beside them and poured.

"Yu Mingchuan, this place is full of bandits. If it weren't for the alcohol, it would be so cold that it would kill you."

Lu Qing desperately crawled into Yu Mingchuan's embrace. This guy wasn't afraid of the cold. His clothes weren't as thick as hers, and his body was still steaming hot. It was simply a natural furnace. Lu Qing didn't know if summer would still be this hot.

"Do you hear the sound of horse hooves? They are coming, 800 riders." Yu Mingchuan took a sip of wine and loosened his collar, allowing Lu Qing to enter.

Lu Qing listened attentively. Other than the whistling sound of the wind, there were no other eight hundred riders. Seeing that Bicky had also straightened her body, could it be that they could all hear her? What the hell.

After a while, Lu Qing finally heard the sound of horse hooves approaching. Rumbling sounds came from afar, and under the cold moonlight, a large area of black mass could be seen. She couldn't tell how many people there were.

"Brother Yu, are you waiting here for me to drink?"

A cheerful and flirtatious voice came from afar. Lu Qing couldn't help but want to pinch Yu Mingchuan.

"Yu-gege ~" Her grandpa's mush was really good.

"May I know what is your highness's purpose for coming here from afar?"

Yu Mingchuan didn't even give her a glance. He simply pulled Lu Qing into his embrace again and calmly continued drinking.

The footsteps drew closer, and there were even sounds of tinkling. It was very pleasant to hear.

"Brother Yu, you actually picked up this woman?"

In front of the desk, there was a small fire flickering in the biting cold wind. Although there was not much firewood, it could not be extinguished in a short period of time.

As a result, Red Leaf immediately saw the kneeling Bai Jitai. This woman had injured dozens of her subordinates. She had actually fled to the Central Plains with wounds all over her body, and had even arrived by Yu Mingchuan's side.

Lu Qing raised his head from Yu Mingchuan's embrace and looked at the approaching Yuchi Hongye.

Tsk, how beautiful.

It looked very similar to the Central Plains. Other than its straight nose and slightly deep eyes, it looked exactly the same. In the Central Plains, it was also a great beauty.

He should be around twenty years old, and the people of this era all got married early. He wondered if this princess had a prince consort or not.

If there was one, it would be terrible. It would be like a green cloud covering the top.

"Yuchi Hongye, if you send more people to wander around the vicinity of Jade Gate Pass, I believe that in three months, you will have no one to use you."

After saying that, Yu Mingchuan rubbed Lu Qing's curious face, and gulped down a mouthful of grape wine.

Only now did Redleaf notice that there was another person in Yu Mingchuan's arms.

"Who is he!"

With a single sentence, Lu Qing curled his lips. This woman is even more jealous than she is. Isn't she still your man?

"Someone who sleeps in the same bed as me."

Lu Qing was still dressed as a man, and Yu Mingchuan had no interest in letting Yuchi Hongye know of Lu Qing's identity. All he had to do was say this.

"You! Do you really only like men? "

Red Leaf was still unwilling to accept this. She had said before that she could help Yu Mingchuan raise the army and fight his way back to the Central Plains. Yu Mingchuan actually remained unmoved. Now that he was still favored by a young man, what about her?

She was a dignified princess of the Yutian Kingdom, a princess who could lead soldiers. How could she be more useful to him than a weak young man?

Or could it be that Yu Mingchuan's fighting spirit had already been sapped away and he was willing to spend the rest of his life at the Jade Gate? She did not believe that Yu Mingchuan was not such a person.

"I never had the slightest bit of interest in you, so why bother pestering me? Today, I want to tell you, if you are going to send someone to stop my Jade Gate Pass, then don't blame me for not showing any mercy." Yu Mingchuan took another sip of the grape wine, and slightly lowered his head to smile at Lu Qing.

"Then his life will be decided by me?" Red Leaf took out the half-dead Wang Jian from behind her.

When Red Leaf said this, a cold light flashed in her hands. Could it be a hidden weapon?

This wasn't good. She wasn't very good at dealing with this thing.

"Be obedient and let him go. Otherwise, you'll have to pay for the sixty-seven lives you owe me at Jade Gate Pass."

Yu Mingchuan finally turned to look at Yuchi Hongye, but at this moment, even Lu Qing could feel the killing intent emanating from him. It was colder than anything she had ever seen.

With a hissing sound, Yu Mingchuan pulled out the sword at his waist, and under the moonlight, it emitted a cold light.

This was like a signal. Yu Tian's 800 riders instantly moved, surrounding Yu Mingchuan and the others, leaving behind only an empty space in the middle.

As for the group at the front, they all drew their longbows and pointed the tips of their arrows at the three people in the middle.

As long as Red Leaf waved her hand, the arrows would shoot out. The three people on the field would not be able to escape their fate of becoming hedgehogs.

"Are you afraid?"

Yu Mingchuan pinched Lu Qing's small face in his arms. The little girl must follow them. If they said she was here, it would be easier to enrage Yuchi Hongye, which would make it easier for her to fall into their trap.

"Of course I'm scared. Why not? I'll leave my life in your hands." As she spoke, Lu Qing once again cupped Yu Mingchuan's arms and hugged his waist.

This scene, in the eyes of Red Leaf, was simply piercing.

She liked Yu Mingchuan for a whole three years. During these three years, she had busied herself with gathering power and finally managed to stabilize herself in the imperial court, but when she saw that Yu Mingchuan was in a desperate situation, she sent so many people to invite him here, yet he did not give her any face.

She had to do it herself. No matter the means, she would get him.

At this time, Lu Qing was carefully looking at the markings they had made on the ground. Very good, the group of Yu Tian soldiers hadn't entered their inner circle yet. It was about time.

"Begin, Begin."

A wolf-like smile broke out on Lu Qing's face as he gazed at the small fire before him.

She was betting that Red Leaf would not kill Yu Mingchuan. This group of people were just bluffing, trying to force Yu Mingchuan into submission.

Thus, even if her archer were to shoot or kill a person, Red Leaf wouldn't mind.

He took out a small white feathered arrow from the quiver behind him. He sharpened the arrow in his hand, then drew out his silver bow and aimed it at the soldiers.
