Chapter 558: The Eighth Emperor Rui
"Chen's army raids... Chen's army raids..."
The beacon fire was once again lit on the bank of the Beijiang River, and countless burning boulders fell on the top of the mountain, and the tent of the Yi State military camp was full of gunsmoke, and the scene was chaotic.
"This, what kind of weapon is this? Several generals looked at the fiery red boulders flying in the sky, "What about Lord Cao?" β¦ Go find Master Cao..."
"General Qiyu, a large number of soldiers of the Chen Kingdom have appeared in the forest, and they are rapidly approaching us..."
This...... The time for their raids in recent days has become more and more tight, and the soldiers have not yet had time to recuperate, and now that their morale is low, how can they cope with the battle? β¦
"Report ...... Checkmate... The body of Lord Cao was found in the woods..."
What the? β¦ Several generals changed their faces, and with a bang, a boulder fell behind them, and immediately smashed a large crater open... Wails were everywhere, countless casualties were inflicted, and in the face of such a lethal weapon, several generals suddenly felt powerless, "Withdraw..."
As long as they are not completely annihilated, they still have room for redemption...
In the Chenguo Palace.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, the army has already pressed the North River Bank in one fell swoop, and the enemy has suffered nearly half of the casualties..."
"Okay..."Dongfang Xu suddenly felt in a happy mood, he could fully imagine how wonderful Xiao Huang's expression was now. Take advantage of the victory and pursue..."
"Your Highness, although you have captured the north riverbank, but the terrain of going down, I am afraid that you still need to think about it in the long run." Feng Yu looked at the algae land on the map, "According to the spies' report, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Emperor Xiao will definitely be ready to ambush us..."
"So what? Even the most difficult Beijiang River has been crossed by us, are you afraid of a mere algae? Besides, Gu Xunfang was there. β
At this time, an anxious voice came from outside. "Your Highness... Your Highness..."
"Come in."
I saw a soldier step in, "An urgent report from Beijiang ......"
Dongfang Xu took it and looked at it, his eyes couldn't help but sink, "This Gu Xunfang, why is he missing again..."
What the? β¦ Feng Yu and Liu Yunfeng glanced at each other, "But was captured by the enemy?" β
"No, as stated in the letter, Gu Xunfang disappeared after leaving under the pretext, and left a letter saying not to look for him. It's really unreasonable, don't you know that this palace needs him now..."Dongfang Xu's eyes were full of dissatisfaction, he saw that Gu Xunfang was indeed a talent, he forgave him for his arrogant style three times and twice, and now he actually left the army of Chenguo at a critical moment, he really thought that he didn't dare to touch him? "The order goes down, Gu Xunfang is fully wanted, and he must be found out in the main hall..."
ββ¦β¦ Your Highness, Gu Xunfang has a meritorious service to our Chen country, so I am afraid that he will have a grudge against him......"
"What should I do if the temple has a problem?"
One sentence made Feng Yu and Liu Yunfeng speechless.
The other end.
"Big brother, where are we going?" Su Ling'er grabbed Gu Xunfang's hand tightly and stepped on the wet grass under her feet.
"Searching for someone." Now that the bank of the North River has been captured, and Cao Fang is dead, Gu Xunfang has never forgotten his original intention of leaving Chen Kingdom. The weapons left behind were enough for the army to last a while, and as long as he could find the Imperial Doctor, he would go back with her.
The little girl next to her didn't speak, but raised a happy smile.
"What, you want to stay in that village?"
"Sister-in-law Xiang is good to Ling'er, but where the eldest brother goes, Ling'er will go..."
Looking at her pestering appearance, Gu Xunfang's heart was full of warmth, if it was in the past, he would have felt that this girl was a burden, but now that he finds her by his side, he no longer feels lonely, it turns out that the feeling of having relatives is so steady.
"When Ling'er grows up, she wants to marry her big brother... That way, we can always be together..."
"...... what......
On the streets of the Lotus Kingdom.
Lively crowds come and go, and vendors on both sides enthusiastically shout to attract customers.
"Eight...... Eighth Prince, let's still, let's go back..."
I saw a young man in a purple costume happily walking down the street, sometimes stopping at this stall, sometimes going there to have a look. His delicate countenance revealed a hint of paleness, his bright eyes were full of innocence, and his lotus-like smile carried indescribable happiness.
A scholar followed him nervously, staring cautiously around in his eyes, for fear that his master would be remembered by some bad guy.
"Sanshui, it's hard to come out, so don't worry about playing boldly." He was like a canary that had just been liberated, and he flew forward again.
"But...... Eight, eight sons, then when will we go back to you? The little scholar followed closely behind, his eyes full of timidity.
The boy looked up at the blue sky, "Hmm...... Wait until they come out to me. β
"Huh? Thisβthis must not be..."
The two figures did not enter the crowd, but they did not notice that several pairs of gloomy eyes were already staring at them.
Inside the wing room of a restaurant.
"Your Highness, you see...... Isn't that the Eighth Prince? β
By the window, out of the corner of the guard's eye, he caught a glimpse of two figures on the street, and Feng Ling at the table immediately raised his eyes, "Eighth Emperor Brother?" β
"Childe, wait, wait, minions..."
"Let's go over there..."
This voice, sure enough, is the Eighth Prince... Feng Ling came to the window and recognized the happy figure at a glance, how did he come out?
This Eighth Emperor Brother was born with a hidden disease, and the imperial doctors in the palace concluded that he would not live to be fourteen years old, and in the past thirteen years, he has been living in the palace with a medicine jar, although there are six princes in the Lotus Kingdom, but these eight princes have always been ignored in the storage zΓ i, since he will not live to be sixteen years old, who will put him in his eyes?
Even on any important banquet occasion, he was too weak to attend, and the people in the palace almost forgot about him.
Feng Ling didn't expect to see this rarely seen Eighth Emperor Brother on the streets of Kyoto.
"Could it be...... Is the illness of the Eighth Prince fake? The guard couldn't help but open his mouth, if there was really a hidden disease, how could he play in the streets.
"Perhaps, he knows that his time is short." That's why he made such a bold move to escape from the palace, just to enjoy the few days left.
"Your Highness, look..."
I saw three sneaky figures, keeping a certain distance and following the two people, judging from their breath and walking pace, they were not ordinary people.
Feng Ling's eyes sank, someone was eyeing the Eighth Prince?
"Let's go..."
"Little boy, take a look... We have a good jade pendant here, which can be given to the sweetheart of the little boy..."
The stall owner saw that Huang Furui couldn't put it down on a piece of jade pendant, and said with a smile.
How do you know that this little boy's face turned red, "I, I'm only thirteen years old, no, I don't have a sweetheart......"
"Hehehe, the little boy really likes to laugh, a rich and noble son like you, some people at this age have taken concubines..."
Huang Furui's cheeks were so red that he was about to drip blood, he didn't know much about men and women, but he still felt embarrassed to be said like this. timidly put the jade pendant back at the moment.
"Eighth Prince, let's hurry up......"
The small stall owner was always staring at his son, and Sanshui was worried about whether the other party had any intentions, so he quickly pulled the eighth prince over.
"Slime Man... Delicious slime candy man..."
Slime Man? What is that...... Huang Furui's eyes lit up, and he slowly approached with the bearer who walked into the alley.
"Wait, wait......" I didn't know how to blink an eye, and the bearer disappeared.
"Childe, forget it, let's go to a crowded place......"
However, as soon as they turned around, they saw three men with stern faces approaching not far away. Their bodies exuded a cold aura that no one should enter, and Sanshui couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart, "Gong, Gongzi, let's go......"
Who knows, the three men blocked their way, "Come with us." β
"What? Bold, who are you, do you know the identity of my son-in-law? β
One of the men smiled sarcastically, and had already raised his calloused hand to reach for the hem of Huang Furui's robe.
A gust of cold wind blew, and the eyes of the three men changed, "Who?" β¦β
However, before they could turn around, their necks ached, and they fainted in the dark.
The plainclothes guard looked at the three people on the ground, "Master, what to do?" β
"Take it back and torture it severely."
The voice...... Huang Furui looked back, only to see the beautiful man slowly walking out of the corner, this beautiful face he had ever seen, "Big, big brother? β
Feng Ling looked at this stunned little face, "Brother Huang, how did you leave the palace?" β
ββ¦β¦ Ah, I, I'm ......" He knocked out the little father-in-law who came to deliver the meal, and changed his clothes before he got out of the palace. The tools for disguise were still given by the five emperor brothers.
The eighth prince and the fifth prince are brothers of the same mother, and he is the only one who is willing to pay attention to his terminally ill royal brother.
"Don't say it, send the eighth prince back to the palace."
"Ah, no, I'm not going back..."Huang Furui suddenly took two steps back nervously, Feng Ling frowned slightly, "The imperial brother also saw it, if I hadn't come in time, you wouldn't know where you would be taken and what would have happened." β
"...... "He really didn't think that he would encounter such a terrible thing, but let him go back to the palace like this?" It has been less than half a day since he came out, and I am afraid that I will never have the opportunity to leave the lonely and cold palace again. "But, didn't the eldest brother already save Rui'er, I, I don't want to go back......"
"Nope."
Feng Ling didn't have any room for negotiation, Huang Furui couldn't help but blush in his eyes, and this excitement began to cough violently, "No...... Ahem...... I, I don't ...... cough cough cough cough ......"
"Childe... Childe..."Sanshui's face turned pale with fright, and he suddenly knelt down at Feng Ling with a plop, "Please, Your Highness, let people take a look at Your Highness first, if you have committed an old disease, it's too late to go back to the palace now..."
"Master." The guards came to Feng Ling's side, but there was a word in their eyes that they should not interfere. You must know that His Highness's current situation is also very dangerous, so why meddle in his affairs to provoke this Eighth Highness, who is dying soon?
Looking at Huang Furui, who was almost out of breath, a touch of pity crossed Feng Ling's eyes, "It's important to save people." β
"Your Highness..."
