We'll have you impersonate the Crown Prince and create a prosperous era for the Great Qian Dyna

Upon arriving at Xinshicheng, Zhou Tiancheng immediately ordered an attack on the city.

Xiao Shi galloped over and informed them of the location of the Northern Xia army.

"One hundred thousand men are only thirty miles away, and they will arrive in an instant."

Is Chou Tien-cheng afraid?

What's there to be afraid of!

"Heatiness medicine!"

He was so bored on the road for three months.

He wrote a novel for He Qian, called "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," which was specifically designed to gather outlaws from all over the world.

Another function is to clear his name.

Typically, after finishing "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," a storyteller in the greenwood would immediately begin telling "The Legend of the Crown Prince of the Great Qian Dynasty."

Yes, it's about how Zhou Tiancheng writes poetry and how he trains his troops to win the championship.

Zhou Tiancheng blushed when he heard this.

What did he do with the rest of the time?

On one hand, they were researching military rations, and on the other hand, they were researching gunpowder.

How can you attack a city without gunpowder?

In addition, he had a bit of a fear of insufficient firepower, so he made three hundred jars in one go.

The soldiers delivered these jars to the city gate, piling up more than fifty jars, and one-sixth of them were used up immediately!

"Ignite it!"

At a command, the soldiers quickly lit the fuse and ran away.

The Northern Xia soldiers on the city wall were still laughing.

"These people from Daqian are such cowards."

"We haven't even deployed our cavalry yet, and they've already turned tail and run?"

"Quickly, open the city gates! Charge out and capture the Crown Prince of Daqian alive!"

Before their shouting had even finished, a loud bang was heard.

The sky seemed to split open, and all the Northern Xia soldiers on the city wall felt dizzy and disoriented.

"What's going on?"

"Is it thundering?"

"The city gates have been breached!"

"My God, the city walls have collapsed!"

The group of unsophisticated Northern Xia people were in a state of extreme panic.

The moment they looked at the city gate, they froze on the spot, even forgetting to pick up their weapons.

After that loud bang, not only was the city gate gone, but the city wall itself collapsed. A section of the huge city wall was wiped out, leaving behind a glaring sight of ruins.

"Kill them!"

Before they could even come to their senses, the Daqian army had already stormed in.

Faced with the unknown, most of the Northern Xia soldiers gave up resistance, and the remaining small force's stubborn resistance was meaningless.

"Save the Emperor Emeritus first!"

Zhou Tiancheng also became excited, and rode his horse quickly into the city, heading straight for Xinshi Mansion.

Arriving at the entrance of Xinshi Mansion, he turned back and smiled at Xinhua.

"The Northern Xia claims to hate our Great Qian to the bone, but in the end, they built a city according to our Great Qian's standards, though it's a bit of a mishmash."

Xinhua wasn't as happy as Zhou Tiancheng; he spoke with a helpless expression.

"Your Highness, hurry! There are still 100,000 Northern Xia cavalrymen waiting outside to capture you alive!"

Zhou Tiancheng sighed, looked up at the gate of the mansion, and then strode inside.

It wasn't that he wasn't in a hurry, but rather that he didn't know the true situation of the retired emperor he had rescued.

When he entered the main hall, Zhou Tiancheng was immediately stunned.

A group of generals from Northern Xia sat in chairs, and in front of them, an old man with disheveled hair and a unkempt beard, dressed in prison clothes, knelt on the ground.

Hearing the noise, the old man turned around and saw Zhou Tiancheng's light yellow python robe. He was immediately overjoyed.

"Are you the current Crown Prince of the Great Qian Dynasty?"

"Quickly! Kneel down!"

"Tell your men to stop immediately!"

Is this old man the retired emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty?

He doesn't look like an emperor at all now.

Like a lost dog, he showed no backbone in the face of the humiliation from the Northern Xia people; instead, he was all smiles and fawning.

A surge of anger welled up in Xinhua and the others' chests.

To save this dog-like retired emperor, the crown prince, despite his noble birth, traveled over four thousand miles to Xinshi City, which was surrounded by countless enemies. As a result, the emperor made the crown prince kneel down as soon as he opened his mouth.

Xinhua is already reaching its breaking point!

But this old man is the retired emperor!

Is he really going to kill this old man?

At this moment, the leading Northern Xia general spoke up.

"Is he the crown prince of the Great Qian Dynasty?"

"Don't you listen to your grandfather?"

"Why aren't you kneeling down yet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the Northern Xia room burst into laughter.

Outside were countless soldiers of the Great Qian Dynasty, but they seemed to completely disregard the people of the Great Qian Dynasty.

A man holding an iron chain pulled hard, and the old man was dragged over like a dog.

He was extremely anxious and turned to bark wildly at Zhou Tiancheng.

"What are you standing there for!"

"Kneel down now!"

"This is my order!"

Zhou Tiancheng stared at him blankly for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

Is this the kind of thing that's worth 10 or 20,000 taels of silver?

Is he worthy?

"Guards! Prepare to attack!"

Zhou Tiancheng waved his hand, not intending to say a single unnecessary word.

The soldiers of the Great Qian Dynasty behind him immediately prepared to enter the main hall.

All the Northern Xia generals present were stunned.

The leader drew his scimitar from his waist, grabbed the old man by the hair, and dragged him over, the blade of the scimitar pressed tightly against the old man's neck.

"Make a move?"

"What do you want to do?"

"Let me tell you, if you try anything reckless, I'll kill your Emperor Emeritus right now. If word gets out, you'll all die!"

"You are the ones who drove your emperor emeritus to his death!"

The old man panicked, tears welled up in his eyes, and his legs trembled violently.

"Whose son are you? I have no unfilial grandson like you!"

"If you still want to be the Crown Prince of the Great Qian Dynasty, kneel down before me right now! Can't you see I'm about to die?"

Xinhua and the others were stunned.

Even the retired emperor has been arrested, so they dare not act recklessly.

Upon seeing this, the Northern Xia general assumed that Zhou Tiancheng and his men were afraid and immediately burst into laughter.

"What are you all standing there for? Drop your weapons!"

"And what are you doing at the city gate? Hand it over right now!"

"Or I'll kill your Emperor Emeritus right now!"

Xinhua and the others turned to look at Zhou Tiancheng, seemingly waiting for his order.

Without a second thought, Zhou Tiancheng cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards the door.

"My great Emperor Qianlong, my imperial grandfather, was once so full of heroic spirit that he dared to charge into the Northern Xia army with tens of thousands of men. How could just anyone impersonate him?"

"This man has disheveled hair, is utterly despicable, and kneels like a dog before the Northern Xia people. How could he possibly be my imperial grandfather?"

"Xinhua, take action!"

"We've been deceived by Northern Xia! Northern Xia doesn't have a royal grandfather like me!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened.

The old man's eyes widened in fury.

"You little brat, how dare you!"

"Whose son are you? How dare you not recognize me?"

"Are you trying to kill me?"

Seeing that Xinhua hadn't moved, Zhou Tiancheng immediately narrowed his eyes.

"You're not going to move, are you?"

"I'll do it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he drew the Lone Goose Sword from his waist and thrust it directly at the old man.
