Chapter 214: Retainers
A piece of flesh had just been taken away from his arm by the arrow, and at this moment he had just been given gold sore medicine and wrapped tightly in a cloth belt. A group of secret guards knew that their master was in a bad mood, so they pushed each other for a long time and pushed him out to carry out the task of persuasion.
"Lord Wang, I can't blame you for the failure of this operation tonight. Speaking of which, the second prince is too treacherous, and he is familiar with the importance you attach to your master's mother, so he laid a trap in advance. You must take care of your health, we can always find a way to save the mistress! β
It's a pity that after a lot of words he said, Murong Huaide still didn't react at all.
Jia Yi licked his chapped lips helplessly, sighed when he thought about Fang Cai's situation, and finally knelt down and said, "Lord Wang, your subordinates should die!" When the main mother was plundered, he killed himself with a knife and saved everyone's lives, and at that time, his subordinates swore that they would save the main mother even if they were desperate. Unexpectedly, today, his subordinates actually relied on the master's mother to sacrifice their lives to pick up a life. The subordinates are really ashamed of the master's mother, and after the return of the master's mother in the future, I beg the prince to allow his subordinates to become the retainers of the master's mother. β
"Are you serious?" When Murong Huaide heard this, he finally opened his mouth. The so-called retainers are the dead soldiers who swear to follow the master, enter the master's surname, and serve the master's side, if the master dies unfortunately, they take revenge as their lifelong goal. In other words, even if Dong Rong turns against Murong Huaide in the future, he will definitely stand behind Dong Rong.
The rest of the dark guards also heard Jiayi's words and gathered one after another. Jia Yi lowered his head and replied loudly, "Seriously, I ask the prince to allow his subordinates to become the retainers of the master mother Dong family, and be loyal to the lord for generations." β
Murong Huaide took a deep look at his most powerful subordinate, and was very glad for his beloved wife, with such a retainer, even if he accidentally lost his life in the future, he didn't have to worry about her being unprotected.
"Good!"
"Thank you, Lord Wang!" A kowtowed and stood up again. A group of secret guards stepped forward and slapped his chest one by one, congratulating him on finding a master who would follow him wholeheartedly.
It was at such a time that B3B 4 finally came to meet with a wolf bèi. The two of them were responsible for lighting fires everywhere to create chaos, but Xu was not optimistic about the direction of the wind, and smoked himself black, and his clothes and hair were burned to the point that he was half ruined.
The two grabbed the water bag and poured it wildly for a long time, and then they knelt down to greet the master, and finally said excitedly, "Lord Wang, my subordinates thought they would never see you again." That purple ginseng..."
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and tell me how the housewife is?" As soon as Jia opened his mouth, he interrupted the two and immediately asked how things had developed after everyone had left.
B3 and B4 looked at each other, pushing each other and neither of them wanted to speak. Murong Huaide's face couldn't help but become more and more pale, and he gritted his teeth and scolded, "Say! β
Yi San hurriedly responded, "That, Lord Wang, the master mother just cut her neck, it seems... There's a lot of blood, that's... It's dangerous. β
Murong Huaide's heart ached so hard that he almost fell to the ground with a stumble under his feet. A quickly helped the master at a glance, and asked B San sharply, "Tell me quickly, what happened?" β
Yi San was so frightened that he said, "The second prince asked the old Khan King for a few pieces of century-old purple ginseng for medicine, and I heard that it has been rescued, so I want to cultivate for a few more days." Also, these barbarians have already begun to recruit troops and horses, and they are about to attack our Daqi. Many of them starved to death in the winter of the past two years, and many barbarians shouted that they would kill all of our Daqi people and get the food back, otherwise..."
Murong Huaide heard that Dong Rong's life was worry-free, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he also had strength in his body, but after hearing Yi San's last few words, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he asked, "Are you saying that the barbarians want to attack Daqi in order to grab grain?" β
Yi San nodded and replied, "Yes, those shamans killed a lot of cattle and sheep to feed the gods, so they got a metaphor for the heavy snow this winter." If they don't come back with food, they will be ordered to reduce their numbers, and many will go out into the wilderness for wolves to eat..."
Murong Huaide glanced at Jia, and his frowning eyebrows loosened together. The so-called desireless person is strong, but whoever has a desire, as long as he does what he likes, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
In the city of the Great Golden King, the scourge was finally quelled at this time, and the war horses were also gathered back, except for the occasional scolding of the barbarians for a few damned arsonists, the rest of the place gradually returned to calm.
The second prince's big yurt was crowded with people at this time. Needless to say, Zizhu and Yun Rui, one hugged the residual knife, and the other held a stick and stood firmly by the bed, no one could get closer. The brother and sister were eager to hit their heads to death at this moment, why did they leave their master just now. If the master has three longs and two shorts, they will return to the orchard, and how should they explain to everyone.
The old Chinese doctor was so busy that he was sweating profusely, and finally boiled a bowl of soup and medicine, and carefully poured it cold, so he brought it to the second prince and whispered, "Your Highness, the medicinal soup is ready, and if you drink it twice a day in the future, you will be able to recover in less than half a month." β
Griletu nodded, picked up the medicinal soup and walked to the bedside. Yun Rui stepped forward to stop him, but he slapped him to the side. Zizhu's eyes were red with hatred, and he had to raise his knife to protect his master, but Geriletu said coldly, "If you delay your efforts, she has a good job, and you killed her!" β
Zizhu was so young that her body stiffened when she heard this, and she had to speak again, but Su De on the side quickly pulled her in front of her and persuaded in a low voice, "Zi girl, don't be stubborn." Our Highness has released the arsonists for the sake of your master, and has lost a few warriors. I don't know how to explain this matter to King Han tomorrow, so don't embarrass Your Highness. Your Highness will not harm your wife no matter what..."
"He won't harm our wife, and if he is really good to our wife, he should let us go home. Our lady misses the little young master and the little lady, and she cries until her pillow is half wet every night..."
"Okay, okay, girl, don't talk about it, let's take care of your wife first."
Su De also had a headache, although he had only been with the three masters and servants for a few days, he really liked them. He also privately hoped that His Royal Highness would be able to capture the hearts of beauties, and he would definitely be much easier to serve under such a kind Fujin in the future. But things don't always go as planned...
Geriletu personally scooped the medicinal soup into Dong Rong's mouth, and sighed in his heart when he listened to the conversation between the two. He just went to ask his father Khan to give him purple ginseng, and his father Khan warned him for the first time not to forget his rights and responsibilities as the second prince of Dajin for the sake of women, and even set the pair of sisters for him to be Fujin in front of Da Fujin. As soon as he thought that there would be two more stupid women in his backyard in the future, he couldn't help but get bored.
If she wakes up and learns that he has sacrificed a lot for her, will she feel a little guilty, even if she still doesn't love him, even if she has a quiet meal with him every day. He will protect her under his wings, even if he can't give her the position of Fujin, he will never allow other women to bully her...
"Your Highness, there will be something to tell you at the end!" Wu Qien suddenly broke into the yurt with a cold air, and Ge Riletu glanced at him and motioned to Zizhu to take the medicine bowl in his hand, and finally instructed Su De, "Don't leave an inch, report to me immediately if you have something!" β
"Yes, Your Highness." Sud hurriedly responded.
GΕiletu glanced at the woman on the bed again, then turned and strode out. Yun Rui, who had just gotten up from the ground and had an annoyed look on his face, saw this roll of his eyes, so he quietly followed.
GΕiletu took Ukien into the yurt next to him and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" β
Wu Qien hurriedly took out a bamboo tube from his arms and held it with both hands, "Just now Chuck was thinking about chasing those Qi people again, so he stood at the gate of the city for a while. As a result, someone tied this bamboo tube to an arrow and shot it. Your Highness take a look, but what are the conspiracies and tricks of those Qi people? β
Geriletu raised his eyebrows, reached out to open the bamboo tube, and poured out a roll of white cotton cloth inside, on which were written a few lines of bloody letters. After reading it, he narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a low voice, "Who else knows about this?" β
Wu Qien has followed his master since he was a child, and naturally knows that his master's appearance is in his heart, so he hurriedly responded, "There is no one else, only Chuck and a few guards." β
Ge Riletu nodded, pondered for a moment and said, "The King of Zhongshan asked me to negotiate at the foot of the Wolf Head Mountain fifty miles away tomorrow, and you bring fifty guards with me." β
Wu Qien glared in shock, and opened his mouth to persuade, "Your Highness, let's let the last general bring more people, and then we can arrest them all." β
Geriletu shook his head and sneered, "He has the courage to go to the meeting alone, so naturally I don't want to weaken my momentum." Needless to say, you'll set off tomorrow when the sun rises. β
"Yes, Your Highness." Wu Qien couldn't, so he had to think about which of the guards was more brave, and hurriedly went down to make arrangements.
Dong Rong slept all night, and when she opened her eyes, the light in the yurt was still very dim. She glanced around and couldn't hold back her tears. Knowing this, she might as well have been hiding in her dreams and not waking up. At least in the dream, there is her husband, her son and daughter, and her peaceful and happy life. However, the cruel reality shattered her hopes once again.
Zizhu was leaning on the side of the bed and taking a nap, when she suddenly woke up with the sound of sobbing in her ears. When he saw the master crying, he immediately began to cry, "Madam, you are awake." Madame, I'm afraid, I want to go home. β
Dong Rong opened her eyes, and with a lot of effort, she finally raised her hand and shook the little girl's arm, and reluctantly asked, "Lord Wang..."
Zizhu wiped two handfuls of tears and hurriedly responded, "The prince is fine, His Royal Highness is busy going to the king of Han to ask Zi Shen to save your life, and he has no time to send someone to hunt down and kill the prince..."
But before she could finish speaking, there was a sudden bustle outside the yurt, and soon there was a rumbling of horses' hooves.
Dong Rong was shocked, and she didn't know where she got the strength, so she suddenly sat up, "Go and see, what's going on?" β
Zizhu saw that the white cloth strip on the master's wound was dyed with blood again, so he hurriedly helped her lie down, and finally trotted outside the tent to inquire. Just as Yun Rui also hurriedly ran in from outside, the two brothers and sisters suddenly bumped into one place. Zizhu didn't have time to blame his brother, so he asked, "But His Royal Highness went to hunt down and kill the prince again?" βR638
