Chapter 40: The Faceless General
Although Princess Changping is the only eldest princess of Dongyao Kingdom, she has lost her mother since she was a child, and she is not as good as a palace maid, and now she is also accused of marrying Hua Yushi, the lord of Lace City.
It is rumored that Hua Yushi has been unable to move since he was a child, and he is not close to women, so he took his personal palace maid Huan'er and wanted to take the opportunity to escape from marriage.
Who would have thought that as soon as they escaped from Dongyao's mission, they met General Guo of Donghua, and were taken back to the military camp by him as an ordinary woman, if they hadn't shown their identity as a princess, they would have been bullied a long time ago.
Princess Changping looked at Fu Renjie and was considering the credibility of this person.
At the same time, Fu Renjie was also looking at the princess in front of him, she looked like she was in her twenties, dignified and magnificent, with a gentle attitude between her eyebrows, and he couldn't help but think of Orchid's domineering and fierce appearance.
It's the same woman, why is this so big!
Princess Changping saw that Fu Renjiesheng's Kong Wu was powerful, but her face was gentle and elegant, and she didn't think she was a bad person.
"Princess Ben believes in you! But how are we going to get out? ”
Changping put down the dagger in his hand and nodded to Huan'er, and Fu Renjie slowly let go of Huan'er.
"Princess, breakfast is delivered!" Suddenly, the voice of a soldier came from outside the camp tent.
"Princess, what should I do?" Huan'er was unrestrained, and immediately stayed away from Fu Renjie, hid behind Changping, and nervously grabbed Changping's sleeve.
Fu Renjie looked at it, this Huan'er was only twelve or thirteen years old, and he had just shouted at those soldiers outside, full of confidence, like a middle-aged "grandmother", but at this moment, he looked frightened, as if those soldiers would eat people.
Changping looked at Fu Renjie and saw that he quickly hid behind the door and made a gesture of chopping his hands, so he understood what he meant.
"Send it in!"
The two soldiers walked in with a tray, and before they could gain a firm foothold, they were slapped by Fu Renjie and knocked to the ground.
"Quick! Change their clothes and we'll get out ......."
Before he finished speaking, Fu Renjie had already begun to pull the clothes of one of the soldiers and threw them to Huan'er one by one.
Huan'er smelled the smell of sweat and blood on her clothes, frowned and hesitated: "Gong, princess? This ......"
Who knew that her princess was informal, and she had begun to dress up: "Don't hurry up yet!" ”
"Oh......"
After a while, Fu Renjie led the two soldiers out of the princess's camp, and the three of them avoided the avenue as much as possible, and quickly left the barracks from the path until they reached a safe place.
"Princess, there is a cave here, please also ask the princess and Miss Huan'er to take refuge temporarily, in the Donghua military camp, there are still things that have not been dealt with, go down and go back, if you don't return in half an hour, please also ask the princess to follow this trail all the way to the east, you can see the Donghua military camp."
Fu Renjie was about to leave after speaking, but was stopped by Huan'er!
"Wait, what else is more important than my princess?"
"Huan'er!"
Changping scolded Huan'er, then turned his face and smiled: "Huan'er is young, you don't blame him, but I don't know that this son's name is honored, and he will be destined for me one day...... "I will thank you for saving your life!"
"The princess is polite, this is the duty of the next. Under ......"
Fu Renjie didn't want to leave his name, but when he thought of the dead Li Wude, he thought of his old mother and pregnant daughter-in-law, and replied: "Under Li Wude!" People from Lijia Village outside the lace city! ”
In any case, Fu Renjie feels that today's credit should be shared with his dead brothers.
……
Fu Renjie returned to the Donghua military camp again, only to find that the military camp had already become a mess.
He secretly said that it was not good, he didn't expect the news of the princess's escape to be discovered so quickly, Fu Renjie was about to hide and act at the opportunity, but he heard someone shouting in panic.
"Quick, quick, the general has been assassinated!"
The general was assassinated? Fu Renjie's empty expression in Liu Fengying's eyes appeared in his mind, as if he had guessed something! Quickly run towards the general's tent.
When he came to the tent outside the general's camp, he happened to see Liu Fengying wiping his neck with a knife.
"Don't ......"
Fu Renjie looked at the woman who fell in a pool of blood, extremely shocked, although Liu Fengying deserved it, but after all, he owed her a life, and he wanted to save her, so it was irrelevant, but who knew that he was one step too late.
At this moment, Liu Fengying's whole body was bloody, and she couldn't tell whether it was her own or someone else's, she seemed to see a vague and familiar figure, the corners of her mouth were raised, and her gaze was forever fixed in the distance.
Fu Renjie's outstretched hands slowly clenched, watching Liu Fengying's corpse being slashed and whipped by the group of soldiers.
……
"Princess, it's been half an hour, do you really want to go back to Donghua? We managed to leave the palace and escape! ”
"Huan'er, you also saw it, just because of me, the two armies fought, and there were countless casualties, if I don't go back, I don't know how many people will die!"
Huan'er was silent and looked at Princess Changping with some distress.
With that, the two of them walked towards the Donghua military camp!
……
When Fu Renjie stepped into Lace City again, the fighting outside the city had subsided, and the battlefield had long been cleaned up, and it was said that it took a day and a night just to burn the corpses.
Fu Renjie raised his head, a strong beam of sunlight hit his face, some couldn't open his eyes, there seemed to be a faint blood in the air, when the sun rose again, everything returned to its original state, leaving no trace of the cruelty of war, but somewhere under the green hills, there were more than a dozen green mounds.
Fu Renjie walked on the street, the same place, the same lively, the sun sprinkled scorching light, but his heart seemed to have gone through hell and could no longer recover his original state of mind.
He came to a mask stand, looked at the ghost-faced fangs, and said to himself, "Now, they are all lonely ghosts!" And I'm ......"
"Master Jun, you are laughing, you just have an extra scar on your face, and your appearance is still very handsome, just right, my half of the mask is especially suitable for you!"
The hawker handed over a mask, black with gold threads, and Fu Renjie wore it on his face, which was exactly right.
"Have you heard of it, yesterday the two armies faced off outside the city, killing and wounding more than ten innocent people."
"Yes, these two countries are so shameless, they say that they are a princess marriage, but they show off their power outside our city, it is simply a fire at the city gate, which affects the pond fish."
"Woo, my eldest man went out of the city yesterday and hasn't returned yet, woo!"
"Maybe it's long gone, and now Lace City is only allowed to enter and not leave, and it'......s hard to collect the corpse if you want to."
There are many people coming and going on the street, there are many discussions, some people are angry, some people are anxious, and there are also many old and weak women and children hugging their heads and crying.
Fu Renjie thought of his brother and sister-in-law, it was estimated that they must be worried, and Hu Ji, and he didn't know if she was worried about herself, so he couldn't help but speed up the pace of going home.
Before he entered the house, he saw a piece of vegetarianism, and a group of people in the yard were wearing linen and filial piety, crying and staggering! Among them is his brother and sister-in-law! And Orchid!
This scene was shocked, could it be that something happened at home?
