Before coming to Beiyan, Fang Xiaoyu had thought countless times about what kind of picture her and Fang Jianzhang's meeting would look like.

Seriously, the scene at this moment was much better than the worst in her mind. At least General Fang is still alive, with no missing arms, no broken legs, no missing nose or missing eyes. Even if he was injured, he could still be healed, and he was still alive and kicking after he was cured.

But she was inexplicably distressed, because she couldn't see any hope in those eyes.

Yu Ruyan didn't expect that there would be people behind him, and there was more than one. When she came, she made a long detour to get here. From time to time, she looked back and saw that no one was following her, so she entered the cave with confidence. And she has set up a formation outside the stone, which can more or less hide some traces. Although she also knew that the formation was drawn by her according to the formation diagram in a broken formation book, it was almost one of the simplest formations, very simple. Because of the big array behind the book, even if there was a formation diagram, she couldn't understand it at all, just like reading a book from heaven. And that formation book was the only thing left in the cave when I first found this stone cave. Exactly who left it is impossible to know at this time.

Unexpectedly, even so, she was easily followed here, and she didn't notice anything wrong.

Yu Ruyan was a little depressed, but also a little relieved. What is frustrating is that she is not good at martial arts, and she has no talent in formation, and she has not had any clue over the years by relying only on self-study. This is evidenced by this scene. And the relief is that it is fortunate that Fang Xiaoyu followed her. Looking at General Fang's expression, this is really correct. And Fang Xiaoyu is the daughter of General Fang, and she will never harm her father. So the general and the others are considered safe.

Fang Jianzhang didn't expect Fang Xiaoyu to come to Beiyan in person. They were betrayed, the army of 50,000 was almost completely wiped out, and it was a question of whether they could escape the pursuit of the enemy with so many wounded and disabled people left.

He has always blamed himself, not only for the tragic death of these 50,000 soldiers loyal to him, but also for not protecting Ye Xici.

His daughter had just gotten married, and the husband and wife lived in harmony. But when the emperor issued an edict, Ye Xici had to follow him to Beiyan to face the one he is facing now.

If they can't go back. If they don't escape the hunt and leave a laugh alone, how will they live in the future?

Fortunately, the general's mansion is supported by the eldest princess. Although the eldest princess may remarry in the future, a few years of hard work is enough for Haozhi to grow up and hold up a piece of the sky. But what kind of character is that Prince An in King An's mansion, he still doesn't know? Laughing alone faced him. And you can't remarry yet. How painful would it be?

He already had the consciousness that he would die in Beiyan, so he was glad to have met Yu Ruyan, and he was able to send a message through her. In any case, he also wants Xiaoyu to know the truth about what happened in Beiyan, and he can't let her lose her father and be inexplicable, and he can't let her be widowed in vain.

However, she came. A woman came all the way to Beiyan. You don't have to think about it to know what she's doing. But he had no face for her.

Shocked, he looked away. He didn't have the face to face her, a father who was so downcast like a lost dog. Unable to face the long journey to find her daughter.

"Thank you for taking care of Miss Yu these days." Fang Xiaoyu is sincerely grateful. She knew how much risk it would take for a civilian to hide these people here. A girl's house, every two or three days, ran to the mountains in the middle of the night, which seems simple, but it is not simple.

Even if the people of Beiyan are fierce, the woman has no need to show up. But sneaking into the mountains at night, if it is known, I am afraid that there will be a bad reputation, which is not conducive to marriage.

And this Yu Ruyan was originally engaged, but her fiancé was sick in bed, and there were rumors that she Kefu, if she was rumored to go out into the mountains late at night with something, she might not know what it would become.

Moreover, when Yu Ruyan faced her, she could feel her fear and anxiety, but even in the face of such herself, she did not tell the whereabouts of these people lightly, just by virtue of her intentions for her father, she deserved her sincere gratitude.

"It's just a little thing like sending some food, and I haven't done anything, so I can't thank you." Yu Ruyan hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand. She found that she was comfortable with guests on weekdays, but in front of the father and daughter, it seemed that everything was messed up.

"That's enough." Fang Xiaoyu approached Fang Jianzhang's face, and for no reason for his evasive gaze was a burst of evil fire. But before she could speak, she caught a glimpse of a familiar person out of the corner of her eye. He sat silently in the corner, tending to a wounded man.

Fang Xiaoyu couldn't help frowning, and said tentatively: "His Royal Highness the Prince? ”

The man paused, then smiled bitterly.

Have you ever seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is so down-and-out wolf?

But he is.

came to Beiyan with the army, originally because his father hoped that he could make some military merits by the way and consolidate his position as the crown prince. What Yu Shi Tiyì, what Mei Guifei added fuel to the fire, this qiē just fell into the hands of his father, and just gave him an excuse to join the army.

Before he came to Beiyan, he went to the imperial study to see his father. The father told him earnestly that there might be changes in the capital, so he asked him to follow General Fang to Beiyan, one is to avoid the limelight, and the other is that if he can make some military achievements, show his face in the army, and win the love of the soldiers, it will definitely be of full benefit to him to ascend the throne in the future.

He had never been on the battlefield, but when the man was always a little enthusiastic, he still found it interesting, and responded without hesitation, and came to Beiyan with excitement.

But Beiyan was more chaotic than he imagined.

Originally, they thought that Beiyan was General Fang's territory, and they would not be in any danger here at all. didn't expect that Beiyan would be in chaos. Finally suppressed the price of grain and quelled the civil strife, but the hundreds of thousands of troops of the quicksand country outside pressed the border and defended the city gate. Even those people arrested many merchants and civilians who went to do business outside, and threatened them to open the city gates and die, otherwise they would brutally kill one person after a while. The number of evil deeds is heinous.

He couldn't bear it with a lot of blood, and went to the city gate to shout in person. But he was almost shot into a hedgehog by an arrow, and if the general hadn't pulled him, he might have been pierced by that arrow.

His prince is used to it, how could he have encountered such danger? But this danger did not quench his anger, but made his anger burn more and more, and it was almost uncontrollable.

So, he got into trouble. insisted on leading the troops out of the city and killing the opponent without leaving a piece of armor.

But General Fang objected. said that the other party had an advantage in numbers, and there was a great drought in Beiyan, and there was no harvest of grain and grass. The food and grass support of the imperial court was delayed, and the army's morale was already unstable, and it was really unwise to force out of the city to meet the battle at this time.

But he insisted on not listening, and insisted on ordering General Fang to go to war. It's a pity that General Fang didn't listen to his command. Only silent.

He was angry with the general. And also released cruel words, even if Xi Ci persuaded him, in this place of Northern Yan, the general is the general, is the supreme commander of Northern Yan, even the prince can't give orders at will, but he can't listen, and once reprimanded General Fang for being cowardly and not daring to fight.

This made Beiyan's military spirit even more shaken.

And General Fang remained indifferent.

Can be later. The grain and grass of the imperial court have been delayed, and Beiyan has almost run out of water and grain. The scumbags of the Quicksand Country poisoned the water source. So that the water, which was not much about to dry up, could not be touched.

The soldiers were hungry and held on to the city gates, and the people even starved and sent everything they could eat outside the barracks, saying that they could still hold on, but the soldiers defending the city could only fight when they were full. He was really touched.

One day, General Fang received a tip-off that the opposing general was passing by a small road to transport grain and grass reinforcements. Beiyancheng was about to hold on to it, so the general took a risk, wanting to ambush halfway and rob the other party's grain and grass.

He listened to the blood boiling, and he had to follow the expedition, the general originally did not agree, but he couldn't help him, and finally agreed.

They led an army of 10,000 men out of the city in the middle of the night, and lay in ambush on the side of the road where the enemy general passed, but they waited left and right, and the other party did not come until it was almost dawn.

The general tried to spy on him, but in the end he was ambushed, but fortunately escaped. At this time, the general knew that there must be something wrong with the information, and it could be the false information spread by the other party from the beginning.

However, things are a little strange. The enemy's ambush was the only one, and the general was not pursued again when he fled.

The general felt that this matter was deceitful, and wanted to take advantage of the fact that it was not yet dawn to return to the city from the tunnel. All the way back to the border city without any danger, General Fang didn't think about which part of the matter went wrong, and the other general began to shout for the city gate again.

At this time, the Dayu Dynasty seemed to have sent troops to harass the rear of the enemy army, causing the enemy army to lose nearly 10,000 people. The enemy general hurriedly sent troops to support, and there were less than 60,000 enemy troops left at the city gate.

The general immediately saw the fighter plane, and personally ordered 50,000 troops out of the city to meet the battle. Originally, the enemy was killed without leaving a piece of armor, but who knew that all the reinforcements that were transferred away came back, and in an instant, the 50,000 army faced hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and gradually lost their support, so General Fang hurriedly ordered to return to the city.

But the most infuriating thing happened. The defenders of the city will look like they are falling into a well, refusing to open the city gates, and saying what if they open the city gates at this moment, let the enemy troops blend into the city, and kill innocent people indiscriminately?

His angry hair stood on end, but there was nothing he could do. Seeing the soldiers being killed by the enemy one by one, as the prince, the future emperor felt so small.

The general naturally knew that he had been betrayed. That's why he immediately ordered to kill a bloody road.

How he escaped this way, until now he still feels unusually vague when he thinks about it. I only know that countless people are blocking in front of him, blocking knives and guns for him, a useless prince. One by one, fresh lives passed in front of him, and he realized how shameful it was to think that he had easily earned military merits.

If it weren't for saving him, the crown prince, maybe the soldiers who had blocked the fatal blow for him would have survived, but now, they are buried in that battlefield, and he, a useless man, survived.

In that battle, they were all badly wounded. But no one feels how much pain the body has, it hurts the heart, and the cold is also the heart.

If the grain and grass of the imperial court can arrive in time, the people will not have to go hungry to give the food at home to the soldiers, and the soldiers will not have to be hungry and listless to guard the city gates. And General Fang didn't have to rush to the doctor to rob the grain, but it just gave the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of the arrangement.

Now that I think about it, after returning to the city, the so-called sneak attack of the Dayu Dynasty is probably also directed and acted by them. And the 50,000 soldiers led by General Fang are almost all his henchmen, I am afraid that those people in the city have already chosen the people, just to completely wipe out General Fang's henchmen with this blow.

A qiē is a conspiracy.

Maybe some people in the city have already colluded with the Quicksand Country.

After they fought a bloody road, they followed some uninhabited paths in the general's memory into the mountain, and went around the mountain, and many people died along the way, only a few of them remained, and they crossed the mountain to the vicinity of the suburban town, and met the girl Yu Ruyan, which saved her life.

He didn't dare to think about this terrible experience at this moment. He was afraid that the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't control the anger in his heart. This is the first time he has made up his mind since becoming the crown prince, if he returns to the capital alive one day, he will definitely kill these traitors! To comfort the souls of these 50,000 soldiers in heaven!

The prince's wry smile all fell into Fang Xiaoyu's eyes. Are those who say that the prince is sitting in the border city all lies? Or did the group of rebels find someone to disguise themselves as princes, just to fool the court?

Fang Xiao didn't have time to think about it, his eyes looked down, but he suddenly saw the face of the person lying on the ground, with a body bandaged like a mummy, which was clearly Ye Xici.

Fang Xiaoyu immediately exploded.

Ye Xici was seriously injured, and you could see it at a glance. In the entire stone cave, except for a few missing arms and short legs, it is the thickest bandaged by Ye Xici.

Fang Xiaoyu hurriedly ran to Ye Xici's side and checked his pulse, the pulse was a little disordered, and the injury was severe, but there was no worry about his life.

"He was injured to save me." Fang Jianzhang lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong.

He felt that the death of 50,000 soldiers this time was due to his incompetence as a general. If he hadn't allowed the prime minister to meddle in military affairs, if he hadn't discovered the betrayal of these people in time, there would have been no vain sacrifice of these 50,000 soldiers.

And Ye Xici, he didn't like him at the beginning. I don't like the mess in his house and I want to marry my daughter, and I don't like the way he looks a little gloomy.

Even when he came to Beiyan this time, he didn't treat him very well. But when it was most dangerous, he fought hard and saved many lives. And when he was almost stabbed by the enemy general, he also said that he pushed him away and took the shot for him.

If he didn't like to laugh, why would he be like this? But he can't protect the husband of his most beloved daughter!

"Save him." Fang Xiaoyu didn't answer Fang Jianzhang's words, but said to Cheng Youyou, who followed all the way behind him. (To be continued.) )
