Chapter Seventy-Two: The Green Vine Tribe

Inside the camp tent of the Northern Yuan.

Su Rou held a cup of tea and sat in the tent with a calm expression, waiting for the people she sent to come back.

"Report!" Someone ran back from a distance and knelt down outside Su Rou's tent with a thud.

"Eldest princess, General Xu's surprise attack failed and has been captured alive, Vice General Li is dead, and Vice General Song led the rest of the men and horses back, and is now pleading outside the camp to plead."

"Well, got it, let him go back to recuperate." Su Rou replied lightly, not at all surprised by this result.

The person kneeling at the door paused slightly, but he didn't dare to say anything more, and took the order.

Listening to the people outside leaving, Su Rou took a sip of the tea in her hand unhurriedly.

"Heh, waste." With a whisper, she stood up and turned back to the couch.

Early the next morning, as soon as Vice General Song, who had escaped by chance last night, opened his eyes, he received a message that Su Rou wanted to see him.

After washing up in a hurry, Vice General Song hurried to the main tent.

"Vice General Song, is this injured?" Su Rou asked with a look of concern when she saw the man's face on his face.

Vice General Song knelt on the ground, a little flattered for a while, and hurriedly replied respectfully: "Princess Xie cares, it's all minor injuries, but it's just ...... General Xu, he ......"

He is Xu Ran's lieutenant, and the person he is most concerned about at this time must be Xu Ran who was captured alive.

"General Xu's matter is indeed a pity, but although he was caught, the people of Xisheng should not kill him directly recklessly, I am afraid that he will suffer some flesh and skin......"

"If he can survive, over time, he will definitely be able to find a way to rescue him, but now for the sake of the overall situation, it is still not easy to act rashly, what does Vice General Song think?" She asked with a smile.

That smile looked innocent and kind, but Vice General Song shuddered for no reason.

Although the woman in front of her looks like she is ignorant of the world, since the emperor went out and disappeared, Su Rou's methods and means of dealing with the internal strife in the palace are overwhelming.

No one could guess what she was thinking, but she didn't dare to provoke her.

"That's right." Su Rou suddenly spoke up, interrupting Vice General Song's musings.

"Did you see Su Mian on the battlefield yesterday?" She asked, curiously.

"Back to the eldest princess, naturally I saw it." Vice Admiral Song replied truthfully.

Su Rou seemed to have heard something interesting, and when she heard the words, she sat down behind the table, and said as if she was going to listen to a story: "Tell me, what was the situation last night?" ”

"This ......" Vice General Song hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "Yes, I did see the third princess last night, General Xu also said that the eldest princess was very worried about the third princess, but the third princess was unmoved...... Moreover, when the war started yesterday, Gu Zhixing still held the third princess and General Xu with one hand. ”

"Oh? Is it? Su Rou pondered for a while, and then asked, "How has Su Mian's posture and mental state changed compared to when she was in Beiyuan a few months ago?" ”

"Yes." Vice General Song's tone was very firm: "The third princess is a lot fatter than when she was in the Northern Yuan Dynasty a few months ago, and her mental state is ...... Looks good. ”

Fat......

The mental state is good......

Su Rou's eyes flickered for a moment, and a trace of coldness crossed her eyes.

"Okay, it's okay, you can go back and recuperate." She smiled and sent Vice General Song out.

Sitting alone in the tent, Su Rou pondered.

Since Su Mian has begun to gain weight, it means that the poison hidden in her body has begun to attack......

It stands to reason that she should flee back to Beiyuan after recovering her memory, and even if she doesn't come back, she definitely shouldn't be alive.

It should have been very weak a long time ago.

What went wrong? Could it be that she knew about the poison in her body and stopped taking the medicine? As long as the drug is stopped, it will not continue to destroy the body, and only the previous toxins remain in the body.

Although there will still be worries about life, if you take care of it, you can still drag it on for a while.

If you wait for the remaining toxins in your body to slowly disperse, you will still return to your previous weakened state.

Unless, there is an antidote in their own hands.

Su Rou sat in place, a little haze welling up in her eyes, no matter whether she knew the truth or not, and no matter how long she could live......

For the secret recipe in her hand, she had to "invite" the disobedient sister back no matter what.

I hope that the next good show will come, but don't let yourself down......

……

In the main camp of the West Saint, Su Mian lay in the soft futon and slowly opened his eyes.

There was the sound of people walking outside the tent, and there seemed to be the crisp voice of a young girl.

She slowly pushed away the quilt and sat up, feeling that her head was still a little stuffy, and after sitting for a while, there was a sound of talking outside the curtain.

"Gee, I'll just take a peek, what if she wakes up?" The little girl who spoke didn't sound very old, as if she was only in her teens.

Then, next to him, there was a voice like a little boy: "What's there to see?" She will naturally come out if she wants to come, if the prince sees you peeking here, even the patriarch will not be able to save you! ”

Su Mian was slightly stunned, and almost laughed at the sound of the two people talking, and then suddenly felt a little confused.

Isn't I the only woman in the entire army?

Why are there two more children all of a sudden?

Before she had time to think about it, she hurriedly rolled over and got out of bed, lifted the curtain and walked out.

The two little children were talking, and they didn't expect her to suddenly rush out and be taken aback.

Su Mian smiled, and just wanted to talk to the two of them, the two little guys screamed as if they had seen a ghost, and ran away without looking back.

It was the first time for a child to be so disgusted, Su Mian was a little speechless for a while.

I'm not some kind of flood beast, wasn't it just at the door that I was discussing and discussing?

Why did you run away as soon as you saw me?

Shaking her head helplessly and amusedly, she raised her eyes and looked around, only to find that the crowd walking back and forth around her, except for the Western Saint soldiers wearing armor, were some people wearing special costumes.

"Ah Mian, why did you run out just after waking up?" Gu Zhixing's voice suddenly came from the side, interrupting Su Mian's train of thought.

"Where is this? And who are those in patterned shirts? Su Mian asked straight to the point.

"These are the people I told you, from the Qingteng tribe." Gu Zhixing explained: "Last night, you were in a coma due to headaches, and the army wanted to avoid that battlefield and find a clean place to set up camp, but you didn't expect to meet the Qingteng people who came out to collect medicine at night, and only after asking did you know that they were near here. ”

"The Qingteng tribe has always been friendly with the Western Sage, they helped find a place to settle the army, and offered to help survey the terrain in order to attack the Northern Yuan, so ......"

"So we're all with them all this time?" Su Mian continued his words and asked.

"Exactly." Gu Zhixing nodded: "Do you remember the things I told you about the Qingteng tribe before?" ”

"Of course I do." Su Mian replied without hesitation.

The starry sky that Gu Zhixing depicted that night still has a vague impression in her mind.

Smiling, Gu Zhixing looked at Su Mian and said seriously: "It's also a good thing to meet them, most of the people of the Qingteng tribe can sing and dance, and they are hospitable, you don't need to think too much about the affairs of Beiyuan, you can also make friends with the people here, and leave the rest to me, the only thing you need to care about is the antidote in Su Rou's hands." ”

His expression was serious, and a pair of black eyes stared at Su Mian fixedly, with unconcealed affection and concentration in his eyes.

Su Mian's heart moved slightly, and she couldn't tell what it felt like for a while, she only felt a little sour and soft, indescribable.

Feeling that the atmosphere at the moment was a little uncontrollable, she deliberately changed the topic and said, "What about the person I caught last night?" ”

Gu Zhixing's expression was a little hesitant when he heard this, and he paused for a moment before answering truthfully: "I have already asked someone to take it down, see if I can ask for any useful information." ”

"Torture?" Su Mian asked.

Gu Zhixing's eyes flickered for a moment, but he still said truthfully: "If he refuses to tell the truth, he will naturally use some means." ”

Su Mian was silent for a moment, but didn't say anything after all.

The war was already a defeat for the king, not to mention that Su Rou sent someone to raid last night, although he was a person from the Northern Yuan, he also understood that compassion was not needed anytime and anywhere.

If that General Xu really knew anything about the palace or his father...... That, of course, is the best.

Seeing that Su Mian stood there for a long time without speaking, Gu Zhixing thought that she didn't like to do this, so she had to explain: "Ah Mian, torture is just a last resort......

"I know." Su Mian interrupted him in a deep voice: "If you can ask anything about my father, remember to tell me." ”

At the moment, only her father is the most important, and she can still carry it.

Seeing that Su Mian was not displeased, Gu Zhixing breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's cold outside, so you'd better go back and rest, huh?" Afraid that Su Mian had just had a headache last night and was unwell, Gu Zhixing reached out and pushed Su Mian's shoulder to make her turn around and go back to the tent.

Su Mian's face was full of worries, and he let him push himself back.

But as soon as he stepped into the tent, an old man's voice came from behind him.

"Lord Wang, Miss Su."

Su Mian paused, turned around, and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

I saw an old man in a bizarre pattern shirt standing behind the two of them.

"What?" Gu Zhixing frowned shallowly.

"Back to the prince, I heard that Miss Su was unwell last night, and she just woke up at this time, so I specially prepared some food in the clan, I want Miss Su to taste fresh, maybe her body will be better." The old man replied.

His hands trembled slightly, and he seemed to be a little nervous.

The ...... in front of you It was the third princess mentioned in the letter......
