Chapter 118: Calm is restored
The bloodthirsty heart understands that Ye Moqing is the son of the gate master of the hell gate, and his young master can't move Ye Moqing when he is fledgling, or he has no strength to compete with the gate master of the hell gate.
Coupled with the addition of Ye Moqing, the tide of the battle was turned around all at once. Let Bloodthirsty know that his plan will definitely not come true. If his identity is revealed, he will have no way to retreat, and instead of this, it is better to leave with his dead soldiers before they have seen him, as if nothing has happened. Nor will it be recognized by Ye Moqing.
If he knew that he had imprisoned the true head of the Xuanyun Sect, he would definitely not let him go. Plus his current identity is different from what it used to be. Bloodthirsty has some taboos.
Under the signal of Bloodthirsty, all the dead soldiers who were still alive withdrew from the battle with Bloodthirsty and disappeared without a trace. Without the bloodthirsty support, the soldiers of these small countries are like soft persimmons, except for a few leaders who have fled.
The others were almost completely annihilated.
Su Xiaran looked at the scene of corpses strewn all over the field under the city wall, and a gust of cold wind blew, making Su Xiaran shiver inadvertently. This was the second time she had experienced something like this, but it was a lifetime apart. Feng Linguo was saved, and so was the Li royal family. But this is not what makes Su Xiaran happy.
What she is so desperate for is not those princes and nobles, but the ordinary people in Fenglin City who can live a stable life. Rather than being displaced by the war and losing their loved ones.
Ye Moqing walked to the city wall with the wind, took off his cloak, covered Su Xiaran's body, and said, "It's windy on the city wall, don't catch a cold."
Ye Moqing's natural behavior was very uncomfortable in Fu Yingting's eyes. But he didn't say anything. Everyone was covered in blood to some extent, both on their faces and on their hands.
Su Xiaran took off Ye Moqing's cloak, handed it back to him and said, "I'm not so squeamish."
Then he said to Fu Yingting and them: "Senior brother, Miss Gongsun, Lone, thank you for coming to help, I don't know where you plan to go?"
Seeing that Su Xiaran didn't appreciate Ye Moqing's affection, Fu Yingting's mood was also a little better and said: "Senior brother, don't worry, I will go back to Xuanyun Sect with Gu Xian, and Miss Gongsun will return to Gongsun's house and go back later."
I thought that after they learned about the bloodthirsty conspiracy, they would not return to the Xuanyun Sect, but they didn't expect them to insist on doing so.
Su Xiaran interjected and said, "The Xuanyun Sect is not safe now, if you go back like this, will you be targeted."
Gu smiled and said: "Qiu Yi, you can rest assured, this bloodthirsty has just suffered a lot, this Xuanyun Sect is his safe haven, at this time, he will not make any noise, no matter how you say it, it will stop for a while."
Gongsun Hongyan also followed: "Yes, General Qiu don't worry, we have our own measure, when you return to the General's Mansion, say hello to the Fang family sisters on my behalf, and we will leave first." The affairs of the palace still have you to worry about more. ”
Su Xiaran nodded and replied, "Don't worry, I know where those people are." You can go with confidence. ”
After saying goodbye, the group left. Ye Moqing stood aside and was already anxious to let Fu Yingting leave. He naturally felt that Fu Yingting was unusual for Su Xiaran.
These days, Xia Qingyi and Mu Chen have also been busy here, dispensing medicine, and saving many injured brothers of the Yulin Army to the greatest extent.
Su Xiaran opened his mouth and said: "Light clothes, Mu Chen, you have also worked hard during this time, so go back to the General's Mansion to recuperate first, and when I finish dealing with the affairs in the palace, I will go to you."
Xia Qingyi nodded and agreed: "Fang Lan and Fang Xin are taking care of Han Bai in the General's Mansion, son, you can rest assured to deal with your own affairs, we will take care of ourselves."
After that, he pushed Mu Chen to the general's mansion. Due to the special nature of these few days, Muchen's medicine has also been stopped for a few days, and Xia Qingyi has to adjust the medicine for him again.
Achu and the five captains also returned to the barracks with the remaining Yulin Army to adjust, and now there are only Su Xiaran, Ye Moqing, and Ye Moqing's subordinates in the entire city gate. There is also the scene of corpses strewn all over the field under the city gate.
"You!"
"You!" Ye Moqing and Su Xiaran opened the intersection almost at the same time.
It was Su Xiaran who said first: "You say it first."
Ye Moqing didn't postpone it, and said, "I'll let them deal with this place, and you can enter the palace with me."
The rain squeezed his eyebrows at Su Xiaran on the side, and Su Xiaran really pretended not to see it, and said, "Okay." A simple word, without too many greetings.
thought that Su Xiaran would be different when he saw him, but he didn't have any extra words to ask for warmth, so he still pushed himself out as before. Ye Moqing couldn't help but have some disappointment.
After that, Ye Moqing took the wind and prepared to go to the palace, but when he was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by Su Xiaran: "Wait." ”
Hearing Su Xiaran's voice, Ye Moqing turned his head expectantly, but saw Su Xiaran untie the jade pendant on his waist, handed it to him and said, "It's been a long time, I went to the palace to look for you a few years ago, you weren't there, and now I'll give it back to you."
Seeing that jade pendant, Ye Moqing frowned and said, "Since it has been with you for so long, I will give it to you, I will not take it back."
Ye Moqing was sad about Su Xiaran's attitude towards him, and when they met, he wanted to return the jade pendant to himself, and he was naturally in a bad mood.
Su Xiaran took this jade pendant and said with some embarrassment: "But ......."
Rushing rain said on the side: "Okay, Miss Su, I said it all, my master will not take it back, you better keep it for yourself, anyway, it's been so many years, and you're used to it."
Seeing that he said this, Su Xiaran was no longer hypocritical. So he hung up and said, "Then let's go."
Su Xiaran didn't realize Ye Moqing's dissatisfaction, and only thought that he really didn't want to ask for this jade pendant. Su Xiaran can be said to be a blank slate in terms of emotion.
Although I have lived for two lifetimes, I don't know what true feelings should look like. In the last life, he was with the second prince of the fool, and spent a miserable time, and was finally abandoned.
In this life, Su Xiaran no longer has any hope for feelings. In her eyes, only being the strongest is the most important thing. Now the two daughters of the Su family are gone.
As the only child of the Su family's grandchildren, although she is extremely reluctant to go back, she still has to fulfill certain responsibilities. After all, Su Xia Ranqing died because of her.
Su Xiaran and Ye Moqing went to the palace one after the other. The wind followed Ye Moqing's side. Torrential Rain was assigned to dispose of the corpses outside the city.
Neither of them spoke, it may be that Ye Moqing was rejected by Su Xiaran just now, and he, who was already arrogant, stopped speaking as if he was angry. Su Xiaran is a person who will not take the initiative to find a topic.
So there is an inexplicable embarrassment in the atmosphere, but fortunately, the wind is a cold person, and if it is replaced by the rain, he may be killed urgently.
Seeing the huge palace gate open like this, Su Xiaran's heart didn't know what to think, it was in this position yesterday that he witnessed Su Xiayan's death.
She ended her short life as a princess like that, just like Su Xiaran back then.
Walking towards the palace, Su Xiaran spoke: "I got the news before, the emperor followed the commander of the Royal Forest Army and hid in the secret passage built during the previous emergency."
Ye Moqing continued her words and said: "It's been two or three days, I don't eat or drink, I don't know if they can hold on, the dignified Emperor Feng Linguo didn't expect to be so vulnerable at this time."
Su Xiaran didn't talk to him about this issue again, but thought about quickly picking them out first to restore the peace of Feng Linguo.
Su Xiaran, as the commander of the general, was in charge of the 100,000 troops of the Yulin Army, so he naturally knew where this secret passage was.
At this time, several people hiding in the secret passage also felt that the outside was unusually calm. The emperor opened his mouth and said, "Is the battle over, we can go out, right?"
The second princess complained: "What kind of life is this, the general you chose is not very good, the general you chose is not very good, I haven't won the battle for so long, let us nest in such a place, it's really starving to death."
The emperor already felt aggrieved, and the second princess read it on the side, and said dissatisfiedly: "Li Ziyi, since you are going to starve to death, where do you have the strength to speak, if you don't want to stay here, you can go out, no one will stop you!"
The second princess, who was scolded back by the emperor, did not speak again, but sat aside angrily. It didn't take long for several people to hear faint movement outside intermittently.
The commander of the Imperial Forest Army thought that he was an enemy, and vigilantly picked up the spear in his hand.
But at this time, he heard Su Xiaran's voice: "Your Majesty, the battle is over, come out."
At this time, in the eyes of the emperor, Su Xiaran's voice can be said to be the most beautiful in the world, and he said excitedly: "What do I say, General Qiu will definitely win!"
With that, he walked out with the commander of the Royal Forest Army. I saw Su Xiaran waiting in place, and not far from her was Ye Moqing and the wind.
Regarding the emperor's embarrassed appearance, Ye Moqing didn't say anything.
After the emperor came out of the secret room, he looked at Su Xiaran and Ye Moqing with some embarrassment, and saw that they had no extra expressions, so he found his voice back.
He said in a majestic voice as much as possible: "The two of you have successfully rescued my Feng Linguo, and when things settle down, I will be rewarded."
The eldest princess wanted to say something when she saw Ye Moqing, but she wanted to say something. On the contrary, when the second princess saw the fifth prince, she was excited.
pounced on him and hugged him, but was skillfully pushed away by the fifth prince, and said distantly: "Second princess, please respect yourself."
Although Li Ziyi was a little dissatisfied, she still pretended to be familiar and said: "Fifth brother, why don't you say anything when you come back, I know that we will be fine when you come back."
The other princes all nodded their heads.
The emperor coughed twice at this time, and said: "There is nothing to do, I will go back to the palace first, and the rest of you should go back separately, and I will arrange for the prime minister to restore order in the palace as soon as possible."
Seeing him say this, Su Xiaran said goodbye: "Then the subordinates will retreat first and go back to the General's Mansion to see the situation."
After getting the emperor's permission, Su Xiaran planned to leave here. Ye Moqing left with her, and said, "The people of the black market, what are you going to do, don't you bring the news to them?"
Su Xiaran glanced back at him and said, "I will inform you of this matter, don't worry about the five princes, you better go back to your mansion first, I still have a lot of things to deal with."
But Ye Moqing didn't leave because of Su Xiaran's words, he just stood where he was and said, "I haven't seen you for so long, do you have to talk to me in this tone?"
Ye Moqing's voice swirled in Su Xiaran's mind, and she didn't know why she deliberately alienated Ye Moqing. Treat Fu Yingting, Mu Chen, Hongyue, even if it is rain, she has never done this.
