The romantic and arrogant villain is forced to love him every day

Chi Zhou tilted his head and looked at Jiang Si, waiting for the dumb man to say what he wanted to say.

Jiang Si lived up to his expectations and spoke directly.

"You are very powerful and I want to compete with you."

Chi Zhou shied away: "It's just a mistake."

Jiang Si strongly denied: "No."

Chi Zhou: "..."

He is most afraid of meeting this kind of martial arts idiot.

They have always been simple, and apart from getting stronger, they only care about competing with others.

"...What do you want to discuss with me?" Chi Zhou asked.

"Archery."

"My archery skills..."

"Your archery skills should be very good, there is no need to deny it."

"Okay." Chi Zhou knew that he could not easily change Jiang Si's determination, so he had no choice but to agree. "I can spar with you, but not now."

Jiang Si nodded without forcing it.

"When is it convenient?"

Chi Zhou: "Go back after suppressing the bandits, and I'll have someone contact you again."

Jiang Si put the three beads away again and put them back in his arms.

"Ah."

After saying that, he stood up and left without a trace of nostalgia.

Chi Zhou: "..."

The next day, the anti-bandit troops arrived outside the stronghold.

This bandit stronghold was built on a mountain with complex terrain, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Jiang Tang did not intend to play any tricks, and was directly prepared to defeat the opponent with the purest numerical suppression.

"I expect that the battle will be over today. How about I take you to play around in the remaining days?"

Jiang Tang smiled extremely confidently.

Although he wanted to sleep in the same tent with Chi Zhou last night and was rejected, the reason he received was "the timing is not right."

Doesn't this mean that we have to deal with the serious business of suppressing bandits first before going to sleep? !

Isn’t that just a matter of holding it in hand and grasping it at your fingertips?

He couldn't wait to taste the fruits of victory.

A victory in every sense of the word.

Chi Zhou looked calm.

"it is good."

Jiang Tang smiled fondly. "Be good and wait until I come back."

It's really strange. I've already succeeded twice, but why do I still like it more and more now?

Is it possible that there really is such a thing as Mr. Right?

Putting these thoughts aside for the time being, Jiang Tang left with the team.

After all, the credit must be attributed to him, and doing nothing will not do.

As soon as the others left, Chi Zhou bypassed the remaining troops and left the place without mercy.

The only thing that made him feel a little sorry was the unfulfilled agreement with Jiang Si.

……

The bandit suppression in Angdu Mountain failed.

Because Jiang Tang underestimated the enemy and attacked rashly before integrating intelligence, most of the soldiers fell into a trap and were trapped.

The rear was also attacked by bandits, and the logistics soldiers were directly slaughtered.

Jiang Tang himself managed to escape under the protection of several secret guards.

Chi Zhou disappeared.

Most of those who survived this bandit suppression operation were high-ranking archers.

The emperor was furious when he learned of this situation.

He could accept Jiang Tang's failure, or he could accept the loss of a group of elites.

But the missing proton is a big deal!

If this matter spreads back to other countries, how many people will think that Chi Zhou disappeared naturally instead of being wiped out by the Jiang Kingdom royal family? !

It is foreseeable that the countries that have settled down will be ready to make moves again.

Whether it is for self-protection or ambition, this will become a signal for their actions.

"Idiot!" The emperor was furious and slapped Jiang Tang directly.

Jiang Tang was kneeling, but this palm knocked him to the ground and his face was swollen.

He covered his face and shouted: "Father! He is just missing! Nothing happened! He will definitely be found!"

"Where to find it?" The emperor stepped forward again and kicked Jiang Tang in the abdomen. "Your troops stationed at the rear were completely wiped out, but his body was not seen. Where do you think he is?"

"...In the bandit village." Jiang Tang said calmly. "He must have been kidnapped by those bandits..."

"You still know how to think?"

"Father!" Jiang Tang knelt straight. "Please give me another chance. This time, I will definitely destroy the bandits and rescue Chi Zhou!"

"How can you guarantee his safety by going rashly? You idiot." The emperor couldn't help but want to scold him severely. "If I had known you were such a waste, I shouldn't have entrusted you with such an important matter... You are really no match for your second brother!"

"Father!" Jiang Tang gritted his teeth and showed an evil look.

He could be scolded by the emperor, but he could not accept the emperor saying that he was not as good as Jiang Du.

This is even worse than scolding him, hitting him, or even killing him.

"Is it possible that I made a mistake?" The emperor glanced at him. "At least all the good news coming from the northwest is good news. What about you? If you don't cause trouble for me, your mother will burn incense!"

Jiang Tang: "Please give me another chance."

"Whoever caused the trouble will naturally take care of it." The emperor snorted coldly. "I'll give you one month. After one month, if you can't find Chi Zhou, I will let you die to apologize."

Compared with losing the trust of surrounding countries, losing a good-for-nothing son is more acceptable to him.

Jiang Tang clenched his fists. "yes."

The emperor waved his sleeves and left.

"I hope you can bring some sense to me this time."

The news of Chi Zhou and Chi Zhou's disappearance came to Jiang Du together.

He had just opened the emergency report from Yuan Heng at his desk, and just as his heart was clenching, the man came directly to him.

"Your Highness!" Chi Zhou smiled. "I'm here to see you again!"

Jiang Du stood up in a hurry, rushed out without saying a word, and hugged the person in his arms.

"You're okay... It's really great that you're okay..."

He just wanted to leave everything here and go to the place where bandits were suppressed to find Chi Zhou.

Chi Zhou was a little out of breath being hugged by Jiang Du.

"Your Highness... if you keep hugging me like this... I should be in trouble."

Jiang Du cried with joy, and quickly let go, placing the person in front of him and carefully looking up and down, left and right.

Chi Zhou blinked his big eyes and let him look.

After looking at it for a moment and confirming that the Chi Zhou in front of him was a complete Chi Zhou, Jiang Du finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You... Yuan Heng wrote a letter saying that you are missing." Jiang Du touched Chi Zhou's face and asked softly, "What's going on?"

Chi Zhou's eyes were full of surprise. "Did the news of my disappearance spread so quickly?"

Jiang Du sighed. "Otherwise? Although you are a hostage, you are also the prince of another country. Once you disappear, it will be a big deal."

"No." Chi Zhou shook his head. "I thought Jiang Tang would at least suppress the news."

A sharp light flashed in Jiang Du's eyes.

"He must also have the ability to suppress... Do you know how much damage he caused when he went to suppress the bandits?"

Chi Zhou shook his head. "I don't know... When he led his troops to attack the stronghold, I took the opportunity to leave... What? Did he fail?"

"Hmm..." Jiang Du nodded. "And it failed miserably."

The mouth of Chizhou is unobstructed. "Then he is really a piece of trash! He brought so many elites with him, but he failed miserably."

"Don't talk about him." Jiang Du took Chi Zhou's hand. "Tell me, why did you disappear on purpose?"
