Rebirth: The Two-Faced Cook Meets the Cold-Faced King Qin

Prince Wanyan Shuo of Yanjiang State rode a fiery red warhorse and led the cavalry to the battle like thunder, stirring up a cloud of dust. His eyes suddenly locked onto Su Qianqian in the distance, and a ferocious sneer appeared on his face. ☆

"Su Qianqian!" The prince of Yanjiang roared, "How dare you, a woman who doesn't know how to live or die, be an enemy of my Yanjiang Kingdom! If you lose, I will make you my concubine and let you struggle in pain under my feet!"☆

Su Qianqian's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and she fought back without showing any weakness: "Wanyan Shuo, your arrogant words are really laughable. On the battlefield, the outcome is still undecided, how can you be so sure that I will lose to you? Today, I, Su Qianqian, want you to know that women can also stand tall and fight on the battlefield!"☆

“How shameless!” The prince of Yanjiang roared, waving the sword in his hand, “My men, kill them! Whoever can capture Su Qianqian will be rewarded handsomely!”☆

Gu Peng was furious when he heard this. He raised his spear and roared, "Wanyan Shuo, don't be so arrogant. And you bastards from Yanjiang Kingdom, if you want to touch Su Qianqian, you have to get past me first! Today, I will show you what a true warrior is!"☆

The two armies instantly fell into a fierce battle, with iron hooves thundering and weapons colliding with harsh sounds. Su Qianqian and Gu Peng fought side by side, facing Wanyan Shuo's fierce attack, they were not afraid at all!

"Ah!——" Wanyan Shuo roared, and he swung his sword towards Su Qianqian, but she dodged it deftly. Su Qianqian swung her sword back, almost cutting off his arm. ☆

“Assholes!” Wanyan Shuo shouted again. He couldn’t accept that he would be forced into such a situation by these two “little bastards”. “I, Wanyan Shuo, actually lost to you!”

"Prince, be careful!" exclaimed a general of Yanjiang Kingdom.

Gu Peng took the opportunity and stabbed Wanyan Shuo with his spear. After a scream of "Ah--", Wanyan Shuo was knocked off his horse. The situation on the battlefield reversed and the soldiers of Yanjiang Kingdom began to retreat.

"No! This is impossible!" Wan Yan Shuo roared unwillingly, "You two just wait, I'll let you go today! Retreat!"☆

As soon as Su Qianqian and Gu Peng returned to the tent, they rushed to Gu Yuan's tent. Gu Yuan was still lying on the bed recovering from his injuries, and they had to tell him the good news as soon as possible. ☆

"Gu Yuan! Gu Yuan!" Su Qianqian's voice had already spread before she arrived, "We won! We defeated Wanyan Shuo!"☆

Gu Peng also followed behind happily: "Yes, Yumo, you can rest assured and recover. Leave the rest to us."☆

Gu Yuan heard the voice and opened his eyes with great effort. Seeing the excitement of Su Qianqian and Gu Peng, he couldn't help laughing: "Haha, I knew you could do it! This is great news. I can rest assured and recover from my injuries."☆

"Of course," Su Qianqian smiled proudly, "With us here, you have nothing to fear. Take good care of your injuries, and we'll celebrate together when you're better."☆

"Right, right, right," Gu Peng also said, "Then we two brothers won't come back until we're drunk!"☆

Gu Yuan nodded, his heart filled with gratitude and warmth. At this moment, they seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness in Dazhou City, and were wholeheartedly defending their country!

Wanyan Shuo, a veteran general, returned to the camp alone after being defeated. The setting sun shone on his tired figure, making him look particularly lonely☆

His armor was covered with various marks, and one could tell at a glance how fierce the battle had been. Although he tried to stay calm, he was clearly in a very bad mood. ☆

As soon as he returned to the tent, he sat down heavily, his face full of anger and unwillingness. His chest rose and fell violently, and every breath he exhaled seemed to be filled with strong anger. It was obvious that this failure was very difficult for him to accept☆

"I must defeat them!" Wanyan Shuo gnashed his teeth and said, his voice full of determination. He was not only cheering himself up, but also telling his soldiers that he, Wanyan Shuo, would never give up. ☆

His eyes became gloomy and sharp, and he began to think about how to defeat the enemy. He stared at the map for a long time, carefully looking for the enemy's weaknesses and thinking about various possible tactics. ☆

As time went by, his plan became more and more perfect. He was not only thinking about how to take advantage of the terrain and the number of troops, but also trying to figure out the enemy's mind to see if he could find any breakthrough.

He even began to think that if sacrificing some people could bring about the final victory, he would be willing to do it. This kind of decisiveness and determination really made people feel how much he wanted to win this battle. ☆

It was getting dark, and the lights in the tent were on. Wanyan Shuo was still standing there, staring at the map motionlessly, as if he was completely immersed in his own tactical world. ☆

He knew that this battle was far from over, and the real contest had just begun...! ☆

The next day, Wanyan Shuo led his army into Zhan Ge Gorge. This gorge has a complex terrain, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is an excellent ambush location. He looked around and thought about how to set a trap here and capture Su Qianqian alive. ☆

He stood on a high place, overlooking every corner of the canyon, and the figure of Su Qianqian kept flashing in his mind. Wan Yanshuo knew that Su Qianqian was a key figure in their enemy's side. As long as they could capture her alive, they could obtain important intelligence and even turn the entire battle situation around. ☆

Watching the soldiers busy setting up camp, Wanyan Shuo secretly vowed in his heart: he must take advantage of the terrain of the canyon and lay a net to make it impossible for Su Qianqian to escape. He believed that with his wisdom and strength, he would succeed in this one move, capture Su Qianqian alive, and lay the foundation for victory in the next battle.

Wan Yanshuo's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, sweeping across every inch of the canyon. He seemed to have seen the moment when Su Qianqian fell into the trap. The soldiers moved quickly and in an orderly manner.

He walked down from the height, came to the soldiers, and began to arrange the tasks in detail. Every soldier listened attentively, afraid of missing a word. Wanyan Shuo's plan was careful and ruthless. He wanted to use the narrowness and steepness of the canyon to force Su Qianqian into a desperate situation.

"Remember," Wanyan Shuo said in a deep voice, "our goal is to capture Su Qianqian alive, not to kill her. So, once she enters the encirclement, we must immediately shrink our formation and trap her."

The soldiers responded in unison, their voices firm and powerful. Wanyan Shuo nodded, satisfied with their performance. He believed that as long as everyone worked together, Su Qianqian would surrender. ☆

As night fell, the canyon was completely silent. Wanyan Shuo stood outside the tent, looking at the dark night sky, his heart filled with anticipation. ☆

Su Qianqian stood at the edge of Zhan Ge Gorge, with a cold and determined light flashing in her eyes. ☆

As soon as the dawn of the second day fell, she began to carefully arrange the troops, and every order revealed the wisdom and courage of the female general. ☆

She led the way, leading a group of elite soldiers and preparing to cross the dreaded Battle Gorge. ☆

Gu Peng was entrusted with an important task and led another team to clear the way ahead. ☆

At the back was General Huo, a veteran with a great reputation in the army. He was calm and unfathomable, and Su Qianqian regarded him as a pillar of support. ☆

However, she never knew that General Huo had a close connection with Concubine Yao. ☆

He is a hidden chess piece hidden by Concubine Yao in the army. This identity is enough to make Su Qianqian's entire plan fall apart in an instant. ☆

The wind in Zhan Ge Gorge was howling, as if foreshadowing the coming storm. ☆

Although Su Qianqian was feeling uneasy, she remained calm. She knew she couldn't panic because she was the soul of the team and every decision she made affected the lives of many soldiers.

The night was as dark as ink. The sound of killing shook the sky in Zhan Ge Gorge, and the smoke of war filled the air. Su Qianqian, wearing silver armor and holding a long sword, fought bloody battles with the enemy on the battlefield. ☆

Wanyan Shuo led his troops to charge in from the opposite side. His face was stern and his eyes were as sharp as a knife. He went straight for Su Qianqian. ☆

The two armies clashed fiercely, Su Qianqian led the way, the sword flashed☆

However, in this tense and chaotic battle, suddenly an arrow shot out from an unknown corner, breaking through the air and attacking Su Qianqian directly. ☆

Su Qianqian only felt the whistling of the wind in her ears. She subconsciously dodged to the side, but the arrow still grazed her arm, leaving a wound deep enough to see the bone. ☆

Blood immediately stained her battle robe red, and piercing pain spread throughout her body. Su Qianqian gritted her teeth to endure the severe pain, but an inexplicable chill rose in her heart. ☆

She looked around, trying to find the source of the arrow, but the battlefield was full of shadows and arrows flying everywhere, so she couldn't be sure who shot the fatal arrow. ☆

Wanyan Shuo saw Su Qianqian was injured, and immediately rushed forward with a knife, trying to take her down. ☆

Although Su Qianqian was injured, her will to fight became even stronger. She held her sword tightly and tried her best to resist Wanyan Shuo's attack. At the same time, she was secretly alert in her heart, fearing that there would be another cold arrow attack. ☆

However, she did not realize that this arrow was shot by General Huo in secret. ☆

General Huo hid himself very well. He did not reveal his identity, but took the opportunity to attack Su Qianqian, trying to achieve his own goal in this melee. ☆

The battle became more intense, and Su Qianqian was defeated by Wanyan Shuo. She felt like she was being pulled by an invisible force and gradually fell into a desperate situation.

Despite her best efforts, she was eventually captured by Wanyan Shuo and became a prisoner of the enemy. ☆

Wanyan Shuo stood under the moonlight, his gorgeous clothes standing out in the night, like a cheetah in the dark night, staring sharply at the prey in front of him.

"Su Qianqian, you still couldn't escape from my grasp after all." Wan Yanshuo's tone was full of teasing and complacency, and he slowly approached. ☆

Su Qianqian widened her eyes and stared at Wanyan Shuo unwillingly. She tried to stay calm and responded coldly: "Wanyan Shuo, do you think you have won like this? Don't get too complacent."☆

Upon hearing this, Wanyan Shuo laughed even more recklessly: "Oh? Do you have any other tricks to turn the tables? Now I've caught you red-handed."☆

"Catching me doesn't mean you've won everything." Su Qianqian gritted her teeth, trying not to lose to the other party in momentum, "The real victory or defeat has not yet come to the end."☆

Wanyan Shuo snorted contemptuously, but instead of getting angry, he laughed: "Hahaha, I just like your stubbornness. But tonight, you can't escape even if you have wings. If you have any last words, say them as soon as possible."☆

"You are wrong, Wanyan Shuo." Su Qianqian suddenly revealed an unfathomable smile, "Perhaps, all of this is part of my plan."☆

Wan Yanshuo's smile froze slightly, and he looked at Su Qianqian again, with a hint of doubt and vigilance in his eyes. ☆

But then, he regained his smug look: "Okay, then I'll wait and see if your plan can turn the tide. But before that, you'd better surrender obediently."☆

The battle of Zhan Ge Gorge gradually came to an end, and the news of Su Qianqian's capture caused an uproar in the military camps of both sides. ☆

However, in Su Qianqian's heart, she was wondering who shot the arrow in her back! ! ☆

General Huo was secretly pleased with himself. His plan was already halfway successful! He would soon be able to report to Concubine Yao. General Huo looked very happy, as if he was still recalling the happiness of that night! ☆

At this moment, Ye Hanxing and Ye Wuhen came like two ghosts and stepped into Gu Peng's tent. The lights in the tent flickered, and the light and shadows danced on the faces of the two, reflecting their complex and unpredictable expressions. ☆

Ye Hanxing opened his lips and spoke softly, each word seemed to be dipped in frost, revealing deepness and secrecy. "Gu Peng, there is a traitor among us." He said slowly, without a trace of emotion in his tone, but it made people feel a sense of solemnity, "We must conduct a self-examination immediately, otherwise, the consequences will be unpredictable."☆

Gu Peng's eyes suddenly shone when he heard it. He met Ye Hanxing's gaze, trying to find the truth hidden in those deep eyes. ☆

Ye Hanxing's expression remained the same, but the slight fluctuation in the corners of his eyes revealed his accurate grasp of the current situation. ☆

"I will send someone to protect Su Qianqian! You just need to stay here and find out who the traitor is right away."☆

Ye Hanxing and Gu Peng sat opposite each other in the tent. Although the atmosphere seemed calm, every word they said was full of hidden meaning. Gu Peng stared at Ye Hanxing with a sharp gaze, trying to find out his true intention from his words. ☆

"Ye Hanxing, you suddenly showed up, what is your purpose?" Gu Peng asked in a deep voice, his tone full of temptation, "Why do you go to so much trouble to help Da Zhou?"☆

Ye Hanxing had no expression on his face. His eyes were deep and firm, as if he could see through everything. "Gu Peng, you don't need to test me. You and I are not enemies, and I have no intention of being your enemy! I only have one wish to help the Great Zhou - to protect Su Qianqian."☆

Gu Peng heard this, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He did not expect Ye Hanxing to state his position so directly. He looked at Ye Hanxing deeply, trying to read more information from his expression.

"Why are you so persistent in protecting Su Qianqian?" Gu Peng asked slowly, with a tone of confusion and inquiry, "What is the connection between you and her?"☆

Ye Hanxing sighed softly, with an indescribable complex emotion across his brows, "These are not important. What's important is that I can no longer appear beside her."☆

He paused, and continued, "You, Gu Peng, are the only one around Su Qianqian who has the ability and strength to protect her."☆

Gu Peng was shocked when he heard this. He stared into Ye Hanxing's eyes, trying to see what he was thinking deep inside. "Are you really willing to let go?"☆

Ye Hanxing sighed softly, with an unspeakable sadness across his brows, "You don't have to doubt my sincerity! You and I are not... rivals in love! Because you and I love..., forget it, since Su Qianqian didn't tell you and the Gu Yuan brothers, I don't think I need to say more, I believe that when the time comes, she will tell you the reason!☆

And I just don't want to see Su Qianqian in danger." He whispered, each word seemed to carry a myriad of emotions, "I can't protect her in person now. The only people around her that I can trust are you and your brother Gu Yuan!"☆

Ye Hanxing's eyes were firm and resolute, "I will only make sure she doesn't get hurt behind her back. Gu Peng, if you can treat her sincerely, I, Ye Hanxing, will have no regrets in my life."☆

These words made Gu Peng fall into deep contemplation. He seemed to see the relationship between Ye Hanxing and Su Qianqian, which was as bright as the stars but out of reach. ☆

Ye Hanxing's words revealed endless helplessness and sacrifice. He was willing to silently give everything for Su Qianqian's safety, but he was destined to be just a passer-by in her life. ☆

Gu Peng had never thought that Ye Hanxing's feelings for Su Qianqian were so deep and pure. And Ye Hanxing's decision also made him have unprecedented respect for this long-time rival.
