Jiang Chen didn't agree with them. After drinking two more glasses of wine, he felt that being with them was boring, so he left with an excuse.

After he returned to the house, he lay on the bed, feeling the warmth of the fire under his body.

In an instant, he felt his whole body relax.

It has been more than a year since he came to this world, and all the past is still vivid in his mind.

Fortunately, in this world, although there is evil, there is also warmth. There is a mother's love that regards him as life, and there is also the waiting of a lover from afar.

His thoughts suddenly drifted back to the past life that he could never go back to. More than a year had passed. He didn't know if the parents there had ever recovered from the pain of losing their son.

He really wanted to go back and see them again, even if he just took a look at them, his heart would be relieved.

He closed his eyes hard, trying to fall asleep as soon as possible. He allowed him to see his parents in his dreams, even to say a word to them or comfort them. It somewhat soothed their grief over the loss of their son.

As their son, he lived a life like a prince with no worries about food and clothing by virtue of being born into a wealthy family. But the comfortable and prosperous life cannot satisfy his throbbing heart, so he has to go looking for excitement with a group of young men who are uneasy about the status quo. In the end, even his life was lost.

Whenever he thought of the absurdity of his previous life, his heart felt like it was being stabbed by something.

At some point, he seemed to hear someone shouting loudly outside.

He stood up at once and came to the window, only to see that the window had been reflected like a piece of red cloth by the torches outside.

As soon as he opened the door, he heard shouting from outside:

"Listen to the people inside, hand over Jiang Chen to me quickly, and I will forgive you all. Otherwise, when I lead my troops to fight in, none of you will survive."

Jiang Chen was taken aback and thought about how he could have enemies here. The guard beside him ran over and said to him:

"My lord, I'm sorry. Outside the inn, many officers and soldiers suddenly appeared out of nowhere. They threatened to let you out. Otherwise, they will rush into the inn."

At this moment, Han Qiyuan, who was escorting them, also walked quickly towards Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen hurriedly asked him:

"General Han, what's going on outside."

Han Qiyuan came to him and said:

"Master Jiang, the man outside is one of Yeluhan's lieutenants named Yuan Biao. He must be here to take revenge on you for Yeluhan's matter."

Jiang Chen asked him:

"How many people are there outside? Can our people resist them?"

Han Qiyuan shook his head and said:

"I have only about a hundred people under my command. Judging from the appearance, there are at least a thousand people. It will be very difficult to defeat many with less. Mr. Jiang, do you have any good ideas?"

Jiang Chen shook his head and said to Han Qiyuan:

"Since you can't resist, then don't make unnecessary sacrifices. They keep saying they want my life. If sacrificing me alone can make everyone safe, then let me go out and deal with them."

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he was about to walk out when the guard beside him grabbed him.

"Sir, you can't take this risk. You are the new champion of the imperial court, and this time you are the representative of the imperial court. How can you take this risk? Let's find a solution to King Wei. If there is a solution, Why would you risk your life?"

Han Qiyuan also said to Jiang Chen:

"He's right. You can't go out and take risks. I'll take people out to take a look first. If he really comes, you should find a way to escape first. I'll go outside to resist for a while."

I heard the shouting outside again:

"Jiang Chen, son, if you know the current situation, you should come out and die. You have put our marshal in jail and his life or death is uncertain. Are you going to just slap your butt and leave? I want to use you to exchange for our marshal. If you want to be a coward, I will lead my men in. By then, not a single one of your Xuanwu Dynasty’s envoys will slip away from my eyes. If you send him out obediently, I can let you go. everyone."

Although the people outside shouted very fiercely, no sign of King Wei came out at all.

Han Qiyuan glanced at King Wei's room, then looked at Jiang Chen and said:

"Master Jiang, I will take people out to check the situation first, and then I will make a decision after negotiating with them."

Jiang Chen could only say to Han Qiyuan:

"Thank you, General Han. It's best if you can negotiate. If that doesn't work, don't fight them head-on. Come back first and then make some plans."

Han Qiyuan led his men and opened the door of the inn, fully armed, and saw the fierce-looking Yuan Biao standing in front of him.

As soon as he saw Han Qiyuan and his men, they swarmed out of the inn.

He looked at Han Qiyuan with his fingers and said:

"General Han, I won't fight you. The person I want is Jiang Chen. As long as you hand him over to me, I won't hurt any of the remaining Xuanwu Dynasty people."

Han Qiyuan came to Yuan Biao and said to him:

"General Yuan, I have been ordered to protect the envoys of the Xuanwu Dynasty when they leave the Northern Kingdom. Before they reach the territory of the Xuanwu Dynasty, I am responsible for the safety of all of them. So if anything happens to General Yuan, please come to me directly. solve."

Yuan Biao looked at Han Qiyuan in front of him, sneered and said to him:

"General Han, I have to take away this Jiang Chen today. I don't care how you deal with it, I have to take this man away. It was he who destroyed our marshal. If I don't let him pay the price, it will be a shame." There is no one available for Marshal Yelu. Except for my son Jiang Chen, I will not move any of the remaining people, and you will take them all away. I, Yuan Biao, always keep my word, what do you think, General Han?"

When Han Qiyuan saw that Yuan Biao insisted on taking Jiang Chen away, he also sneered at Yuan Biao and said:

"It seems that General Yuan insists on making things difficult for me, right? I am following the Emperor's order to send them all back home safely. General Yuan, as long as you have the Emperor's order, I, Han Qiyuan, will do it without saying a word." Put your hands on the people. Ask the general to bring out the emperor's imperial edict."

Yuan Biao pulled out the team to avenge Yeluhan just to vent his personal anger.

When he knew that this road was the one that the envoys of the Xuanwu Dynasty must take, he ambush him from a distance. Just waiting for them to pass by, Jiang Chen was captured in one fell swoop. So that he can be used to bargain with the emperor, so that Jiang Chen's life can be used as a threat in exchange for leniency to Yeluhan.

Therefore, when Han Qiyuan asked him to produce the imperial edict, he became angry and said:

"Han Qiyuan, I think you made me look embarrassed on purpose. Even if I don't have the emperor's decree in my hand today, I will take him away."

Han Qiyuan said to him calmly:

"General Yuan, I don't care what grudges you have with Jiang Chen. I will never let you take him away under any circumstances."

After Yuan Biao heard Han Qiyuan's words, he suddenly laughed. He pointed his finger behind Han Qiyuan and said:

"Han Qiyuan, do you rely on the hundreds of people behind you? What ability do you have to stop me from arresting Jiang Chen? Look behind me. Do you want to kill the whole army with an egg against a stone? If you really want to do that I thought, I might as well be a good person and do it to the end to help you."

After saying that, he gestured towards the back. Immediately, archers came up, bent their bows and arrows, and pointed at Han Qiyuan and the soldiers behind him.

At this moment, a loud shout came from inside the inn:

"Stop, don't you just want to catch me? Come at me if you can, don't attack them."

Han Qiyuan looked at Jiang Chen and walked out with bare hands. He quickly stood in front of him and said:

"Who asked you to come out? I told you I can handle it. Come in quickly."

Jiang Chen patted Han Qiyuan's shoulder in front of him and said to him:

"Thank you, General Han. You are the only one who is willing to stand up and think about my safety in times of crisis. Jiang Chen is grateful."

Han Qiyuan looked at Jiang Chen in front of him and said to him excitedly:

"It is my responsibility to protect the safety of each of you. Didn't I tell you to find a chance to leave as soon as possible? Why don't you listen to me?"
