Shang Wuchen woke up to find himself lying on the bed, which was not his. Xia Chen sat at the table with one hand on her forehead as if she was asleep, and a ray of sunset reflected on her face through the window paper, which was a little unreal.

He looked at it for a long time before he remembered that there was still action at night, and immediately turned over and got out of bed to put on his shoes.

Xia Chen opened his eyes when he heard the voice: "Are you better?" ”

Shang Wuchen raised his head: "I'm fine." "The voice and expression are very flat.

"Why didn't you sue me if you were hurt? He also used his internal force to channel the meridians for me. "I heard Hongzheng say that Shang Wuchen went to Qingzhou to deliver a letter before he was ambushed and injured, and he rode around for days and days, often unable to fit his eyes for several days, and even his inner thighs were worn off by the saddle.

"I'm fine." Shang Wuchen lowered his eyes and carefully sorted out his shoes and socks, as if he was going to attend a very important banquet.

Xia Chen squatted down and raised his eyes to stare into his eyes: "Is that all you say?" ”

Shang Wuchen turned his head: "I...... It's really fine. ”

"Poof!" Xia Chen couldn't help but laugh, because Shang Wuchen's expression was like a stubborn child now. She stood up and reached out to touch his hair hanging down his shoulder: "I just found out that your hair is so good." ”

Shang Wuchen noticed that his hair was scattered, and Xia Chen's actions made him want to hide but obediently obeyed. "Isn't there something to be done at night? All arranged? ”

Xia Chen said lightly: "The operation is canceled." ”

"Why?"

Xia Chen turned around and walked to the table and poured a glass of water: "Because you have to recuperate." "She originally wanted to deal with King Hai Lian immediately, and then settle accounts with King Kang and Hua Manlou before going to Xuanguo to find He. But now she suddenly changed her mind, for the sake of Shang Wuchen! Because she found that she had always been selfish, especially to him. She knew that he would never let her go to the King of Hai Cheng alone, and how could she let him get into danger again.

Shang Wuchen was stunned for a long time: "Did you mean to change the decision for me?" ”

Xia Chen handed him his hand: "There is no foolproof plan, maybe there will be a better time to wait." She paused slightly: "During this time, you have almost completely given up your life for my business, why can't I postpone it for you for a few days." ”

Shang Wuchen squeezed the cup hard, and his knuckles gradually whitened. "Chen'er, you don't have to think about me, just do what you want to do."

"Giving you a good rest is what I want to do right now."

Shang Wuchen looked at her with his bright, deep and somewhat melancholy eyes: "I just want to do my best to help you achieve your wish." And then I thought ......"

"Where do you want to go?" Xia Chen seemed to understand a little, he was so desperate just to leave her as soon as possible.

Shang Wuchen's gaze suddenly drifted far away: "Baiyun Spring on Cuiwei Mountain, the clouds have no heart and water are idle." At night, I sat alone on the clear stream. Laughing and playing Fengyue sent Chanjuan. ”

"Why is it Ji Chanjuan, not Gong Chanjuan?" Xia Chen heard that Shang Wuchen had a heart to retreat, but it was sad that he had this thought at a young age. And he finally mentioned Ji Chanjuan, it seems that he already has someone in his heart. What kind of woman can't pursue it on his terms?

Shang Wuchen shook his head. The smile was full of bitterness: "Chen'er thinks the word 'Gong' is good, so change it to Gong Chanjuan." ”

Xia Chen raised his eyebrows: "Don't pretend to be confused, you know I didn't mean that." ”

Shang Wuchen stood up: "I'm just casually remarking, I just want to go to the mountains and rivers when the world is too peaceful." ”

"Zi Mo has been shouting that she wants to go out to play, you might as well take her with you then."

Shang Wuchen smiled: "I like to be quiet, she's too noisy." ”

Xia Chen originally wanted to test his mind, but when he said this, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled, could it be that he had someone else in his heart? "If you were asked to choose someone to travel with. Who would you choose? ”

Shang Wuchen took a breath: "You." ”

"What?"

"I mean, what you should think about most now is how to deal with Xuanjun, and I'll talk about it later." Shang Wuchen quickly finished speaking and exhaled.

Xia Chen sighed softly: "You're right. Who knows if we'll make it to that time. ”

At this time, General Li sent someone to call her over. "Wuchen, you go back to your room to rest first."

As soon as Xia Chen entered the study, he felt that the atmosphere was a little unusual, and General Li and the two lieutenants looked very solemn and solemn. "General, what's wrong?"

"Hey!" Li Ze sighed bitterly: "King Kang seems to have learned about the movements of the Xuan army earlier than us, and he wants us to withdraw our troops immediately. ”

Without waiting for Xia Chen to ask the reason, the deputy general surnamed Zhao said: "I heard that there are peace talks again." ”

Xia Chen snorted coldly: "Peace talks? I really don't know the smell of eating a hundred beans, and I still talk to the king of Hailing. ”

After Li Ze asked the two lieutenants to step back, he raised his eyes and looked at Xia Chen: "King Kang is ready to give up Jiangbei and stick to Jiangnan." ”

Xia Chen shrugged: "At this time, he is suddenly content." ”

Li Ze smiled bitterly: "Yes." However, his worries are not unreasonable, with the current national strength of the Great Cloud Country, if he fights the Xuan army again, he may not even be able to hold Jiangnan. ”

"Doesn't he know that Xuanguo and the situation are not stronger than Da Yun!"

Li Zedao: "The capture of the second emperor inevitably made him afraid of the Xuan army, even if he recaptured Jiangbei, he would not dare to return to Anyang, and then Jiangbei would become an endless battle, and in the long run, the two countries would lose both sides and eventually one side would be destroyed." ”

Xia Chen sneered, "And he thinks that the one who perishes will be Da Yun?" ”

Li Ze thought for a moment: "Or maybe King Kang is using a strategy to delay the army, because it is impossible for the Xuanguo army to stay on the side of Dayun all the time, because there are still enemies in the northwest." ”

Xia Chen's brows were deeply locked and he thought for a while: "I think he wants the throne." King Hai Lang has a court in his hand, how can he not take advantage of it. ”

Li Ze said suddenly: "Are you saying that if King Kang doesn't agree to his conditions, he will send the second emperor back to Beijing to restore the throne?" ”

Xia Chen asked rhetorically: "Doesn't the general think that this possibility is very high?" If King Kang had planned to abandon Jiangbei from the beginning, why did he never recall all the troops and send you and me to capture Anyang? And during this period we have not suffered defeats, and the situation has developed in our favor, and he knows all these things. "The fertile soil in the north of the river is thousands of miles, and the banks of the Huangsha River are even more fertile, but King Kang will not choose to give up if he has the slightest chance to regain it, so the reason can only be that the throne is more important than one qiē.

Li Ze pondered for a moment and agreed with Xia Chen's statement. "The previous letter mentioned the so-called agreement, presumably King Hai Lao still has evidence in his hands that King Kang has long planned to usurp the throne!"

Xia Chen said: "If the deeds are defeated, King Kang will change from the desire of the people to the target of the public, and then there may be a situation where all parties are divided as kings, and then the Great Cloud Kingdom will really be over." "There is no shortage of people who want to take over the world at any time, and the turbulent times of people's hearts are the best time, all you want is a reason, and there is no better reason than King Kang collaborating with the enemy.

"General Xia, where should we go now!"

Xia Chen smiled faintly: "The king's order cannot be violated, the general is ready to retreat." ”

Li Ze shook his head again and again: "I led the troops away, what should I do with the people of Jiangbei and Qingzhou." ”

"Although the Xuanguo army is large but the population is small, and there are fewer people who are good at farming and handicraft, they will not kill the people, and the Xuanguo army has reached the time when it must be withdrawn, so it will not attack Qingzhou again for the time being."

Li Ze sighed heavily: "Having said that, how can I bear to see the people of Heshan being trampled under the iron hooves of the enemy." The people of the Great Cloud Kingdom will be reduced to slavery in the Xuan Kingdom nine times out of ten. ”

"General, don't worry, after you lead the troops to evacuate, the casualties of the people will never be more than those who hold on to Anyang, and we will look at the situation in the future." As he spoke, he handed the letter to Li Ze: "I can't deliver this letter in person, I have already sealed it, and the general withdrew it and said that the general had different intentions and the slander was self-defeating." ”

Li Ze was stunned and said, "General Xia won't go back to Jiangnan?" ”

Xia Chen nodded: "I'm going to attack the enemy camp at night." ”

Li Ze's face was even more shocked: "Do you want to assassinate the King of the Sea?" Is it for your uncle? ”

Xia Chen said lightly: "Yes and no, in short, the general withdraws and defends, and prepares with both hands." ”

"No, you can't go!" Li Ze knew that no matter whether the assassination was successful or not, Xia Chen would be a dead end.

Xia Chen smiled mysteriously: "The general has seen my light skills, if I want to escape, who can catch up with me!" ”

Li Ze's expression eased slightly: "General Xia is careful in everything, don't act rashly if you don't have a chance, you must come back alive." ”

"Naturally, it's not early, so I'm ready to go."

Li Ze suddenly remembered something: "I almost forgot that someone sent something to General Xia just now." ”

Xia Chen suspiciously took the small box given to her by Li Ze and opened it to take a look, and suddenly felt that her heart seemed to have been hit by something and stopped.

Li Ze asked curiously, "Why is General Xia so surprised." ”

Xia Chen hurriedly asked, "What kind of person sent it?" ”

Li Ze frowned and recalled, "That girl seems to have been here once, and she came with that Lei Ying girl. ”

Xia Chen was even more confused when he heard this, the only girl who had been here with Lei Ying was Saixue, could this be sent by Hua Manlou? But how could the golden silk armor that Wei Han had been wearing close to his body be in Hua Manlou's hands?

Touching the smooth and flexible silk armor, Xia Chen's heart ached for a while, and at the same time, there was a trace of uneasiness, could it be that something happened to Wei Han? (To be continued......)
