Hearing Yu Wenyong's question, the joy and excitement on Yu Yi's face suddenly subsided a lot, covered with bloodshots, and his tired eyes revealed a strong sense of sadness. Facing Yu Wenyong's inquiring gaze, Yu Yi couldn't help but hang his head, silent.

Seeing Yu Yi's posture, Yu Wenyong's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition hit his heart, making his already disordered breathing more and more rapid. Tian Tian's dry lips, Yu Wenyong took a deep breath, looked at Yu Yi calmly and asked, "Yu Aiqing, what happened, you tell the truth, I am prepared." ”

Yu Yi slowly raised his head, and his heart couldn't help twitching violently at Shangyu Wenyong's somewhat dim and anxious gaze. However, after five or six days of hard work, Yu Wenyong became so haggard, his face was sallow, his eye sockets were deep, and even the long beard that he usually took care of became dull, like a weed.

"Say, what's going on?" Yu Wenyong's heart was anxious, and he couldn't help coughing violently, and it took a long time to calm down, his face was sickly red, but his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

After pursing his lips and hesitating for a long time, Yu Yi finally made up his mind, so he looked at Yu Wenyong seriously and said: "Your Majesty, Wechen will tell you everything that happened in the past two days, but you must not be in a hurry to get angry and hurt your body, otherwise Weichen will be responsible even if he dies!" ”

"You say!" Yu Wenyong let out a long breath of turbid air and nodded slightly. After all, he has been in the wind for a long time, and he has excellent control over his emotions, and after a short panic, he has calmed down at this time.

Yu Yi didn't speak immediately, but pondered his thoughts, and then said in the most tactful tone possible: "Your Majesty, two days ago, Wei Xiaokuan, Liang Shiyan and the Qi army led by Gao Gao encountered, a tragic battle, our army was defeated, scattered and retreated, and the two generals were nowhere to be found, life and death are unknown. ”

"What?" Although he had a premonition, when he heard the news with his own ears, Yu Wenyong was still very shocked in his heart, his mouth opened slightly, and his face was incredulous.

Seeing Yu Wenyong like this, Yu Yi couldn't help but worry even more, and hurriedly said softly: "Your Majesty, in the past two days, Weichen has sent many people to Jinzhou in disguise to find the whereabouts of the two generals, but there is no news of their life and death, which proves that they are still alive. ”

Having said that, Yu Yi knew in his heart that the chances of Wei Xiaokuan and Liang Shiyan surviving were very slim.

More than 35,000 Zhou troops participated in the battle that night, but now very few have returned to Dingyang City, according to them, Wei Xiaokuan was killed on the spot by Xing Xing in the chaos, and Liang Shiyan was captured alive by a Qi general named Cheng Yanjin. In order to prevent these bad news from shaking the morale of the army, Yu Yi had to tightly control these surviving defeated troops.

In the past two days, Yu Yi sent hundreds of people, divided into dozens of groups, to Jinzhou to inquire about the news, but there was no news from Wei Xiaokuan and Liang Shiyan. And that battlefield, now buried by ankle-high snow, how difficult is it to find someone from the vast snowfield? However, it was precisely because of the heavy snow for a day and night that Gao Xing did not lead the army to Dingyang City.

Seeing that Yu Wenyong's eyes were dull and his face was cloudy, Yu Yi couldn't help but say worriedly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the two generals have their own natural appearance, and they will definitely be safe." Wechen will definitely send more people to find them, and you can recuperate with peace of mind. ”

Yu Wenyong's eyes rolled, and he finally came to his senses, but his once majestic eyes were now full of regret, his lips trembled slightly, and he said abruptly: "It was I who dragged them down, and it was my command mistake that caused hundreds of thousands of imperial warriors to die and become lonely ghosts, I am sorry for them!" ”

"Your Majesty-" Yu Yi snorted lightly and said seriously: "Your Majesty, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and the best destination for soldiers to die on the battlefield is their best destination." You are eloquent and benevolent, and we are willing to go to the soup for you, even if you die, you will feel honored. It is our glorious mission to be loyal to Your Majesty and sacrifice your life for the Great Zhou, and you must not blame yourself for this. ”

Yu Wenyong showed a miserable smile on his face, shook his head slightly, and said: "As the lord of the Great Zhou, I brought them to this foreign land, but I can't take them back to China safely, what face do I have to face my hometown fathers and elders, and face their parents, wives and children who are looking forward to it?" ”

"If it weren't for me, Wang Liang, Wei Xiaokuan, and Liang Shiyan, how could they have suffered this catastrophe, and life and death would be separated forever? It's all my fault, it's all my fault! The more Yu Wenyong spoke, the more excited he became, and his face became more and more red, which was due to the lack of breath.

"Poof—"

Finally, because he was too emotional, Yu Wenyong spurted out a mouthful of blood, his face became extremely pale in an instant, and his already weak breath became more and more severe, and his breath was dying, and it seemed that he might die at any time.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Yu Yi saw Yu Wenyong spitting blood from his mouth, and was immediately horrified, and while holding Yu Wenyong's collapsed body with concern, he shouted loudly: "Imperial Doctor, Imperial Doctor, Quickly Transmit Imperial Doctor-"

"My fault, my fault......" Yuwen Yong was so soft that he was in Yu Yi's arms, looking at the roof with blank eyes, and muttered to himself.

Of the 300,000 troops, only a quarter is now left, especially the generals who have always relied on have suffered heavy losses, which made it difficult for Yu Wenyong to accept it for a while. Yu Wenxian, Wang Rail, Wei Xiaokuan, Liang Shiyan, these four people are the humerus of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but now their whereabouts are unknown, and their lives and deaths are unknown. Such as Da Xizhen, Han Ming, He Ruobi, Han Baohu, Gao Ying and others are also rare brave generals, but now they are all folded in the Qi country, how can you let Yuwen Yong not feel heartache.

Hurried and noisy footsteps sounded, and the Imperial Doctor quickly rushed through the door. When he saw Yuwen Yong's angry appearance, the imperial doctor looked shocked, didn't care about saluting Yu Yi, hurriedly took out the golden needle he carried with him, and quickly rescued Yuwen Yong.

Yu Wenyong was still unconscious, and his mouth was still babbling, but his voice was much quieter, and finally he finally closed his eyes and fainted. Yu Yi stared at Yu Wenyong tightly from beginning to end, seeing this situation, he was so frightened that he wanted to shout, but the imperial doctor who had completed the diagnosis stopped him in time and said: "Lord Yu, Your Majesty has no worries about your life for the time being, but it is not appropriate to disturb at this time." ”

"Whew-" Yu Yi let out a long breath, and his hanging heart relaxed, but the clothes behind him were completely soaked with sweat. Breathing a sigh of relief, Yu Yi asked anxiously while assisting the Imperial Physician to cover the quilt for Yuwen Yong, "Imperial Doctor, how is Your Majesty?" ”

The imperial doctor looked at the sleeping Yu Wenyong steadily, his brows furrowed tightly, and he sighed for a long time, his eyes full of worry.

Yu Yi's heart sank, and he said with some hesitation: "Imperial Doctor, Your Majesty's injury is ......" Because he was too nervous, Yu Yi's voice was a little trembling, his mouth was dry, but the palms of his hands were sweaty.

The imperial doctor sighed again, looked at Yu Yi with a heavy face, and said: "Lord Yu, Your Majesty is already seriously ill, and now he has been stimulated again, and his anger is attacking, and the evil qi has taken the opportunity to invade his body, the situation is very serious, and the power of the medicine stone is afraid to be ......" Speaking of this, he stopped talking, but the meaning expressed by Yu Yi could not be clearer.

"What do you say? Why are you quacks so talking? Your Majesty is just occasionally feeling the cold, and you can rest for a few days and be fine, where is it like you say? ”

The Taiyi's voice fell, Yu Yi's color changed suddenly, and his thin big hand reached out, grabbed the placket of the former's clothes fiercely, and dragged him to a stumbling side, and even his breathing was greatly affected. Yu Yi stared at the imperial doctor viciously, the surging murderous aura on his body pressed out, and said sharply: "Say, who are you here for, and what are your intentions?" ”

"Ahem! Lord Yu, the lower officials have no intention of murdering His Majesty, the lower officials are wronged, you let go, cough cough! The Imperial Physician looked terrified, and trembled violently.

"Quack!" Yu Yi snorted angrily and suddenly let go of his palm, but the killing intent in his eyes continued unabated, "You listen to this official, if Your Majesty has any mistakes, you can come and see it yourself!" ”

The imperial doctor was clever, he wanted to refute it, but he didn't have the courage, he could only suppress the grievances, anger, and fear in his heart, and looked at Yu Yi tremblingly, almost with tears in his eyes.

Nearest the king nearest the gallows. As a special doctor for the royal family, although he enjoys the high office, he also bears huge risks, and the slightest carelessness will lead to the fear of his life, and his family and friends may also be implicated.

"Regarding His Majesty's condition, this official doesn't want a third person to know, otherwise," paused, a cold light flashed in Yu Yi's eyes, "You know the consequences!" ”

The imperial doctor trembled, nodded silently, and didn't dare to come out.

After threatening the Imperial Doctor with a stern voice, Yu Yi's gaze suddenly looked around.

"General Yu, the villain is willing to make a poisonous oath and never dare to reveal a trace of secrets."

"The general spares his life, spares his life!"

But it was the eight guards who were in charge of guarding Yu Wenyong, and when they saw the floating gaze of the wing killer sweeping over, they all knelt on the ground, with a look of panic on their faces, and cried sadly.

Yu Yi took a few steps closer, his expression soothed a little, and asked lightly, "Can you really keep a secret?" ”

"Really, if the villain talks nonsense, I am willing to suffer from ten thousand arrows piercing my heart!" Seeing that Yu Yi's face softened, the guards seemed to see the dawn and said busily.

"Well, in that case, the official will promise you!" Yu Yi said with a smile, and when the guards heard this, they immediately kowtowed excitedly: "Thank you for the general's kindness, thank you for the general's kindness!" ”

"Get up!"

After everyone thanked them repeatedly, they slowly stood up from the ground, with a smile on their faces that had survived the catastrophe. However, at the moment when they relaxed, Yu Yi shot out like lightning and snatched the two long swords, the cold sword flashed, and the eyes of the eight guards widened, their eyes were full of astonishment and despair, and they couldn't believe that Yu Yi had reversed himself and was so ruthless.

"Only the dead can keep secrets forever." Yu Yi looked at them with some guilt, and said in a low voice: "Go with peace of mind, your family and officials will definitely treat them well." ”
