Chapter Forty-Eight: Li Yan's Entanglement

The sky was blue, and Gao, who had changed into women's clothes, stood on the steps in front of the room and looked up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

The red lady, who was still dressed in red, walked out of the house, walked behind her and called softly: "Niangniang, you have been standing here for a long time, it is hot outside, go back to the house and rest for a while." ”

Gao sighed and turned to look at the red lady: "Sister, following me is really a burden to you, I can't stand you." ”

After all, the Gao family is from a country woman, and she is not used to her identity as the queen mother, so when she speaks, she will call herself the palace and become me again for a while, which is the same as Li Zicheng.

It's not that there is a saying that only three generations of officials will eat and dress. Li Zicheng and his family are both born with mud legs, and they are not so particular about these so-called etiquette.

Hongniangzi shook her head and said: "Niangniang, don't say that, the emperor asked me to protect you, but I didn't expect that we are ...... now, but I didn't protect Niangniang." If you want to say I'm sorry, it's because I'm sorry for the emperor and Niangniang. ”

Gao took the red lady's hand and said, "What are you talking about?" The Jiang family's army was as fierce as a wolf and a tiger, and the emperor's hundreds of thousands of troops were defeated. You said that so many men can't keep me, the queen mother, what can you do as a woman. I'm only worried now that this King Qin locked us up in this small courtyard, gave us food and drink, and didn't say whether he killed or let us go, what did he want to do. ”

"I can't say well, although those soldiers looked at us along the way, they were all in order. After entering the city, I watched the people coming and going on the street, and the people who did business and went shopping came out, and now they are doing this to us, it seems that this King of Qin is a person who cherishes the people, and he governs the army strictly, such a person will not come nonsense if he wants to, Niangniang and relieved, he should eat and drink, maybe he will be released to us one day. The red lady comforted.

Gao Shi was silent after hearing this, and then said: "We are all women, to tell you the truth, I don't attach much importance to the position of this queen." We are women, and in this life, we can find a man who knows cold and hot and will hurt people, and that is the biggest good thing. I'm only worried about the emperor's safety now.

I think this King of Qin is a heroic figure, our emperor has fought with the Ming army for more than ten years, and how many times he almost lost his life. finally had these territories and people now, but I didn't expect to be defeated by this King of Qin in the third war. The emperor is a real person, and he doesn't have so many fancy intestines, and the people under his hands are not easy to deal with. Now that he has encountered an opponent like King Qin, the road ahead is really difficult.

If you can let me see the emperor, I will definitely persuade him to let go as soon as possible, he is not the opponent of King Qin. Not to mention anything else, just these soldiers under the hands of others, we Dashun Kingdom can't be trained at all. It's just that I don't know where the emperor is now, it's really worrying......"

The red lady didn't know how to answer, after all, there were some things that Gao said, but she couldn't say it as a courtier's wife.

It's just that Gao's words made her face look worried. Gao was worried about Li Zicheng's safety, and she was naturally worried about Li Yan's safety.

……

In the tent for the seriously wounded in the prisoner camp, in a small tent alone, there was a handsome-looking young man with an elegant air lying on the wooden shelf bed, but his face was still a little pale, and the thick white bandage on his body indicated his status as a wounded.

Outside the tent stood two soldiers with guns, apparently guarding him.

This wounded man is Li Yan.

A female medical nurse was carrying a wooden plate with bandages, scissors and a bowl of decoction on it, and she had come to change Li Yan's dressing.

Li Yan, who heard the footsteps, opened his eyes and was still a little surprised when he saw the female medical nurse who changed the medicine for him. He had been awake for two days and understood his situation.

He learned from the mouths of the female medical guards and the soldiers guarding him that Jiang Chuan, the king of Qin, not only did not intend to kill him, but also asked the military doctor to treat his injuries carefully and arranged for a special female medical nurse to take care of him.

At first, he thought that this was because King Jiangchuan of Qin wanted to win him over, so he did it on purpose, so he refused to take medicine and begged for death.

However, after hearing that Empress Gao and his wife Red Lady were also taken prisoner and imprisoned in the Tianjin Acropolis, he changed his mind.

He intends to live before he can find a way to rescue the queen and his wife.

For his sudden transformation, no one in the Jiang Jiajun seemed to be surprised.

In the process of cooperating with the medicine treatment, Li Yan also tried his best to get the news from the female doctors and soldiers. But these people will tell him what they should say without him asking, and he won't say a word no matter what he shouldn't say, which makes Li Yan very depressed.

He didn't know what happened to his wife and the queen Gao's female dependents. From the feeling of feeling, he felt that Qin Wang Jiangchuan should not abuse and bully a group of women.

But after all, the two sides are hostile, and he doesn't know this King of Qin, so he always can't help but think wildly.

And he understands that his wife, the Red Lady, is a fierce woman. If you are insulted, you will definitely fight for the result.

Thinking about it, he was even more worried. But now that he is injured, he is still a prisoner of the ranks, and there is no way to worry about it.

The female medical guard finished changing his medicine, watched him finish drinking the medicine, and then left, Li Yan didn't have time to ask anything.

After the female medical nurse left, Li Yan tried to sit up slowly, feeling that except for the wound on his back that was still a little painful and his body was a little weak, everything else was fine, and he was secretly relieved in his heart.

He slowly got out of bed, put on the new clogs he had been given, and began to walk slowly around the tent.

A soldier outside the door lifted the tent and took a look, but when he didn't notice anything unusual, he shrank back and continued to guard.

Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Li Yan walked around the tent a few times and then had an adventurous idea.

But this thought went around his mind a few times and was then extinguished by himself.

In such a well-defended camp, it was almost impossible for him to escape. Besides, he was still injured.

And once he dares to escape, I'm afraid that the queen and the red lady will be involved. If the King of Qin was angry with them, then he would be dead and could not be redeemed.

He suddenly understood why those people would tell her about the queen and the red lady, because people knew that he, Li Yan, would definitely take care of their safety.

For a while, Li Yan didn't know what to do.

While he was thinking wildly, the curtain of the tent door was lifted, and a tall, handsome young general in silver armor walked in.

"Dare to ask what the general is called?" Li Yan was born as a scholar in the end, but he did not lose his manners.

"This general, His Royal Highness King Qin, the general of the Right Route Army, Bai Shan, has seen General Li Yan." Come and answer with a fist, very kind.

"The general of the defeated army, I dare not be called a general, I am ashamed!" Li Yan was also a little embarrassed to see that the other party was so polite.

"In that case, then I'll call you Gongzi Li. We are all soldiers, and we are straight to the point. Presumably, Li Gongzi wondered why His Royal Highness King Qin treated you so kindly. Bai Shan smiled slightly.

"Exactly, please ask the general to solve your doubts." Li Yandao.

"It's very simple, His Royal Highness the King of Qin values the character and talent of the son, so he hopes that the prince can abandon the darkness and turn to the light and come to serve under His Royal Highness. Childe, don't be in a hurry to refuse, listen to me. The strength of the Dashun army is outnumbered by the enemy compared with the strength of our army, but it is three battles and three defeats, the defeat is like a mountain, and hundreds of thousands of horses collapse like a tide, which is out of control.

I say this not to mock Childe, but to hope that Childe can see something clearly. Whether Li Zicheng is the real Ming Lord, whether Dashun Kingdom really has the mandate to dominate the world, you can think about these things if you have time.

His Royal Highness knows that Childe is a loyal person, so he is not reluctant, and will give Childe some time to think about it. His Royal Highness said that if the prince is willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, he will reunite the prince and the noble lady. And you can also put back the daughters of Empress Li Zicheng and other generals of the Great Shun Kingdom. I hope that the prince will not live up to the love of His Royal Highness King Qin. That's all I say, Childe thinks about it, if Childe thinks about it, tell the guards at the door, farewell! ”

After Bai Shan finished speaking, he said goodbye and left, even if Li Yan wanted to object, he didn't have a chance to show his loyalty to Li Zicheng.

Bai Shan's words made Li Yan even more puzzled, he didn't know where this King of Qin knew that he valued himself so much as a defeated general, and also put forward conditions that he couldn't refuse at all, but it violated his principles of life.

Li Yan, who has always been smart and decisive, is really entangled this time.
