Qi Kan Tian felt that Prince Fan was really not suitable to be a prince. For soone like him to be part of the Imperial Family just showed how much bad luck had accumulated in his family.
"Your Majesty… do you have any plan?" Prince Fan asked nervously.
When he heard that River General Kui was wounded, he was already stunned speechless and didn't know what to do anymore. Then, River General Kui suddenly asked for night raid and all he could do was to approve it.
Even if he didn't approve it, River General Kui would still step forward.
He felt so troubled.
After all, he knew that from Wei Da Kingdom, all of the responsibility would fall to him should anything happen. So if he wanted to survive, he had to win the battle and return with victory.
But the question remained….
Would it be possible?
Prince Fan didn't know and thus, he could only turn to Qi Kan Tian. After all, Qi Kan Tian was the Emperor of Qi Xi Kingdom and had quite the influence to be able to protect that deteriorating kingdom all this year.
Qi Kan Tian looked at Prince Fan and felt the irony. To think that this young prince would rather ask help from an outsider rather than his own advisor.
"Prince Fan, have you asked your kingdom's advisor for so advices? What I say might not be the sa as what he would want to tell you."
"That's…" Prince Fan was silent and didn't know what to say anymore.
He had asked, but their answer was not like what he actually wanted to hear. It was like they were telling him that he was not supposed to listen and instead gave up because there was no longer any hope.
But he knew.
If he were to give up, it ant that he would have to face the punishnt that was already prepared for him. It also ant that he would probably be punished so heavily that there was possibility that he wouldn't be able to keep his life anymore.
Qi Kan Tian sighed. "Your Highness, I'll be retreating in the morning."
Prince Fan was stunned by the sudden statent that Qi Kan Tian gave to him. As the Emperor of Qi Xi Kingdom, Qi Kan Tian was not soone who would leak out his plan to outsider so easily.
"That's…"
"If we can't break this High Pass, how can we hope of conquering Fei Yang Kingdom?" Qi Kan Tian chuckled. "Besides, I'm sure that the supposedly real battle that occurred sowhere else is also a big loss for us."
"Real battle?" Prince Fan blinked his eyes in confusion.
Qi Kan Tian smiled but didn't explain further. He knew very well that there was no way that the crafty Pri Minister Lei would actually concentrate all of his soldiers in this High Pass. He must have already prepared for another backup that would help them to pass this High Pass.
However, considering that Pri Minister Lei hadn't moved, Qi Kan Tian could guess that it must have been a loss.
But what exactly happened still needed so investigation.
"This…"
"Please excuse , Your Highness for I'm unable to answer your inquiry."
"It's fine…"
After collecting his thoughts back again, Prince Fan finally left the tent. He was still thinking about what Qi Kan Tian told him as he was thoroughly confused.
Qi Xue looked at the departing back of the young prince before remarking, "Your sense of humor is as bad as ever, Your Majesty. Have you taken a liking to tease stupid children to make your day?"
"It's his bad luck to be born as part of the Imperial Family." Qi Kan Tian chuckled. "Besides, that Lei person will surely tell the others that there's another attack from Zhang Xu Kingdom at the border with Fei Yang Kingdom. However, the attack must have failed."
Hearing that, Qi Xue snorted. "General Wei will never leave his post unprepared."
"Indeed."
Qi Kan Tian's eyes deepened. He felt that Fei Yang Kingdom must have eaten the luck of the entire land to have so many talented people gathered here. Even though he had to admit that most of them were crazy people who would do things that was out of normal people's expectation, he still felt that they were so lucky.
"Why did Master didn't pick any other disciple from Qi Xi Kingdom?" Qi Kan Tian lanted.
Qi Xue's lips twitched when she heard what the Emperor said. She turned to look at Qi Kan Tian but said nothing. There were already three disciples of Traveling Doctor Liu among 13 disciples. It was already a lot and he still wanted more?
Did he think that their land was a blessed land for doctors?
But she didn't say anything.
…
Back at the battlefield.
"The sun is rising." Nan Luo's face bead when he saw the sun started to rise from a distance. He was tired after fighting for an entire night, so he felt glad when it was morning.
"Didn't it an that we have to continue to fight?"
Nan Luo's face darkened. Did they not have any ti to rest at all? Looking at the tired soldiers from both sides, he really felt that their commander was heartless. The soldiers were already so tired from battling the entire night and now they wanted them to fight again for the entire day?
Heartless!
"GREAT GENERAL NAN!"
"RIVER GENERAL PAN!"
As shouts rang from the frontline, the children were stunned speechless.
Nan Hua furrowed her eyebrows as she turned to look at the frontline. Did sothing happen to her grandfather? There shouldn't be anything that happen because the fight ended in tie and Old Master Nan didn't take any risk…
Did she cause another change?
At that thought, Nan Hua ignored everything and rushed towards the direction where Old Master Nan was located.
"Nan!" Nan Luo was stunned and by the ti he reacted, Nan Hua was already a distance away from him.
