In order to regain the position of Khan, Yurenge agreed to Gu Junci's proposal after careful consideration.

With the abilities of Gu and Xu, it is definitely impossible to kill Qitu Khan in the Mulan Mansion of Rongdi Wangting. If there are eighteen cavalry to help, there may be an [-]% chance of winning.

Therefore, after discussing with Gu Junci and the others, Urenge went back to his room under the leadership of the soldiers, leaving only Gu Junci and Xu Yanqing here.

Xu Yanqing watched the people leave, and then saw Gu Junci who was leaning on the handle of the chair, drinking tea from a teacup, and hurriedly sat closer:

"How did you become the fifth prince of Rongdi? You don't plan to go back to Chang'an?"

Gu Junci didn't answer directly: "I haven't played enough yet."

Xu Yanqing hurriedly said: "Brother Gu, I didn't ask before, I thought it was your private matter, but now that Rong Di is involved, I have to say something more, how is everything in Chang'an City? His Highness Prince Qing is still safe ? Are you having any conflicts?"

Gu Junci looked back at him, and put down the tea bowl: "Why do you say that?"

Xu Yanqing said: "The current situation in Chang'an City is definitely not good for the Second Highness. According to the relationship between you, you will only stay by his side to help him, and you will not leave the capital at this time, leaving him in danger in the capital." Second, you are the protector of the country, with the kindness of saving you, His Majesty will not do anything to you, will you?"

Gu Junci smiled slightly: "Well, in normal times, I would not let him face danger alone, but now I can't do it. I have already figured it out during the two months in Chang'an. There is no way to stay in Chang'an, no way to face A Yuan directly."

Xu Yanqing was very surprised, looking at his calm appearance, she always felt that the truth was not the case: "What happened?"

Gu Junci stared at Xu Yanqing, and said for a long time: "Do you know Xuanji Tu?"

Xu Yanqing pondered for a while, then shook her head.

Gu Jun said: "Xuanji Picture is a collection of heroes in Xuanji Kingdom, and I am the first one."

Xu Yanqing was so surprised that she was speechless, and she didn't even understand what Gu Junci was talking about.

Gu Junci stared at Xu Yanqing, the smile on his face finally subsided, and was replaced by seriousness: "I am me, but I am not me. Everything I have is true to me, but it is also false. I am not me, I am just an illusory character created by A Yuan, but for some reason, I walked out of his book, do you understand?"

Xu Yanqing was so shocked that she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, she just reached out and grabbed Gu Junci's clothes, and looked at him straight.

Gu Junci narrowed his eyes and said: "What I have, what I have experienced, including myself, are not real, they are just created by A Yuan, virtual, my people are fake, my parents are fake Yes, even I am a fake, created by A Yuan, so I have no way to face A Yuan, face his tenderness, face his apology for concealing the truth from me."

"I can't show my heart to him like before, because when I see me, I really think of my origin, my past, and I need time."

Xu Yanqing listened quietly until the expression on her face dissipated, replaced by powerlessness:

"This incident is too difficult for me to accept, so I don't know how to comfort you, but at least you really exist. You have fought side by side with us, haven't you? Every day of the waves is a day, even if If you are going to Rongdi, I will go with you, and bring you back whole, as a relaxation."

Gu Junci looked back at him, and finally couldn't help laughing, and shook hands with Xu Yanqing, and his heart became much happier.

It was mid-winter, and the snow here was not over yet. When the eighteen riders put on their military uniforms and came back, they gathered downstairs in Hanyang Pass. Originally, they were invited to enter the city to rest, but they never thought that they were just outside the city. Set up camp, light a bonfire, reunite with Xu Yanqing, and never enter the city.

Although the previous dynasty was still destroyed, the grievances of Marquis Jingbian have been vindicated because of Xu Yanqing's meritorious deeds.

But in the eyes of these eighteen cavalry, the only thing they believed was that Lord Hou was killed by the faint emperor and courtiers of the previous dynasty at Hanyang Pass. Yangguan can not enter.

In the middle of the first lunar month, a group of 21 of them were divided into three teams, disguised as merchants from the Western Regions, and arrived at the royal court of Rongdi—Mulan Mansion.

Maybe it was because of the new year, or maybe it was because Yurenge was outside and hadn't been wiped out, so the entire Mulan Mansion was heavily guarded, and even just after nightfall, there were soldiers patrolling the streets.

According to Urenge's arrangement, after the end of the first lunar month, there will be a grand bonfire festival in Rongdi on the second day of February to celebrate the return of spring to the earth, with bonfire singing and dancing to assist witches to pray to the gods for good weather this year.

For such a grand party, Qitu, as the new Khan, naturally had to attend in person, so Yurenge chose this time, so that he could get close to Qitu without any effort, and he could also regain his Khan position. .

Although February is already early spring, for Rongdi in the extreme north, except that the snow has melted, the weather is still cold and windy, and there is no feeling of early spring at all.

The Bonfire Festival is held at night and lasts for seven days.

But Qitu, who is the new Khan of Rongdi, will only appear on the first day, and then will stay in the palace and will not appear again.

So early in the morning, Urenge, Gu Junci and others entered the venue where the campfire festival was going to be held. No matter if they were soldiers or ordinary people, they could ride horses in the venue.

Or if you like someone, invite them to compete in wrestling skills. The winning side will not only receive a token from the woman, but also win the title of the strongest warrior in Rongdi this year.

Because in Rongdi, the strongest warriors can directly enter the royal court to serve as officials, so there are many people in the arena who will compete with each other.

After Gu Junci and Xu Yanqing met in the arena, they invited them to sit down in front of the wrestling arena. As for Urenge, he is being protected by members of the Eighteen Riders at the moment. It is best not to let him show up to be noticed .

"I didn't expect Rongdi's February [-]nd to be so lively." Xu Yanqing looked at the two wrestlers off the court, and quickly turned his head to comment with Gu Junci.

Gu Junci looked at the tall and mighty man with great interest, holding each other's shoulders, but his leg skills were comparable, so he couldn't help laughing: "Yes, it's much more interesting than going out to enjoy the flowers."

Xu Yanqing said: "Why do you want to help him?"

"Because he didn't want to fight either. He could have escaped alone that night. After all, I was the one who cut off the queen for him, but he didn't. He called for reinforcements, regardless of his identity. That's why I was more determined to help him." Gu Your speech.

Xu Yanqing thought about it, this is indeed Gu Junci's style of doing things.

Back then, he helped him escape from the tiger's mouth, but it was only because his father was wronged, and they had classmates.

He thinks it's worth it, so he will help, so among the brothers, only Xu Yanqing has received the most favor from Gu Junci, so this time Gu Junci has something to ask, even if it is to help Youlunge win Rongdi's position , he also came without thinking.

"Hey, the two over there, why don't you come to the competition too?"

The person who won the wrestling in the arena suddenly saw the two people who were having a good conversation and shouted at them.

Gu Junci and Xu Yanqing were stunned, they always felt that it was not good to be too early, especially now that it was still early and Qitu hadn't come yet, so it might not be good to expose too early.

The two looked at each other, quickly got up and saluted to express their refusal, but they didn't think that the man seemed to be not satisfied with the fall, so the people under him rushed over and surrounded them, waiting for the man to come over.

"Look at your body, you are not from Rongdi." The man mocked, "Look, you guys, I can knock you to the ground within three rounds."

Gu Junci frowned slightly, and glanced at Xu Yanqing: "I've been underestimated."

"It's okay, I didn't take him seriously." Xu Yanqing said.

The man looked gloomy and pointed at Xu Yanqing: "It's you!"

"The cow doesn't drink water and presses his head. We are not from Rongdi, but we just come to Rongdi to do business. I heard that your bonfire festival is lively, so I came to participate. I didn't expect that you would force foreign guests to wrestle?" Gu Jun Ci folded his arms and smiled mockingly.

The man's face was still gloomy: "Since you are a foreign guest, you can do whatever you want, and you should experience our Rongdi Bonfire Festival."

As he spoke, he rushed towards Xu Yanqing. Xu Yanqing grabbed the man's arm, turned around on the spot, landed on the man's back, and stretched out his hand:

"I'm not wrestling with you, rude."

The man seemed a little annoyed by Xu Yanqing's deft avoidance just now, and he stretched out his hand to catch him again.

"Sangger!"

Suddenly, there was a stern shout from outside the arena, and the person who called Sanger stopped and looked towards the people outside the arena.

The people outside the arena wore hats made of high-quality leather, and even the clothes on their bodies were made of the best leather, especially with a group of soldiers behind him, which highlighted his extraordinary identity.

Sanger immediately stood upright, clenched his right fist in front of his left chest and saluted, "Left Worthy King."

Gu Junci and Xu Yanqing exchanged glances, wanting to leave secretly, but unexpectedly Zuo Xianwang called the two of them back.

"The two of you don't seem to be my Rong Di's subjects." King Zuo Xian said.

Sanger hurriedly interjected, "It's a foreign guest who came to Rongdi for business."

Zuo Xianwang glanced at him, and Sanger immediately shut up.

Gu Junci hurriedly said: "King Zuo Xian, the two of us are from the Western Regions, and we came to Rongdi to do fur business."

King Zuo Xian looked at the two of them for a while, looked left and right, and then said: "Of course I know whether you are from the Western Regions, but the leather goods you want are hard to find, so please think twice, if you want Stay for the Bonfire Festival, we are more than welcome."
