Chapter 276: Desperate
Shen Xu gave the order, and the arrow feathers on this side smashed into the army of Baili Yunzheng like raindrops.
The most difficult thing to deal with is that Shen Xu released a rocket, which will not only shoot and injure people, but also burn the few ships that Baili Yunzheng already had.
Baili Yunzheng was really repelled by Shen Xu, and there were not even any casualties on Shen Xu's side, but he suffered heavy casualties, so he could only choose to retreat.
"We won, we won."
After repelling Baili Yunzheng, Shen Xu heard exciting news here, they were scared by Baili Yunzheng, and they had not won in front of Baili Yunzheng.
Always led by the nose, but today they won, how can they not be happy. Shen Xu didn't contain everyone's happiness, because his heart was also very excited.
Baili Yunzheng was very angry at this time, and there was blood dripping on his hands, thinking that it was caused by the excessive force of his fist clenching. Guo Da was also very depressed at this time, but he didn't say anything.
He can understand the bitterness in Baili Yunzheng's heart, he is the most bitter person.
Gu Mansion.
"Brother Liu, why are you here?"
Li Chuxia looked at Liu Yu with some surprise, this person is always elusive, since she was rescued by Liu Yu that day, she hasn't seen him again.
"It's like I can't come?"
Liu Yu said with a smile. However, the expression on his face couldn't hide that he had something in his heart.
"I'm straight to the point, I think Baili Yunzheng has feelings for you, he crossed the river like crazy after knowing what happened to you and Wei Jingran, can't you see it?"
Liu Yu couldn't help but say.
He felt that Li Chuxia should know all this news, with her cleverness, how could she not see something?
"Then you also know that he was defeated by Shen Xu, don't you want to know how his situation is now?"
Liu Yu felt that Li Chuxia couldn't be so ruthless, so he observed Li Chuxia's expression while talking about Baili Yunzheng's situation.
"I don't want to know, I've put my mind on my marriage with Jing Ran now, how he has nothing to do with me, besides, General Shen won the battle, we shouldn't celebrate together, right?"
Li Chuxia asked rhetorically.
Liu Yu didn't expect Li Chuxia to think like this, but this was her own choice, he was just saying what he thought.
"Since you have completely let go of this relationship, then I wish you and Jing Ran a happy marriage in advance and an early birth to a noble son."
Liu Yu said with his fists clenched.
"Brother Liu, when are you coming, don't say anything to inform me."
At this moment, Wei Jingran didn't know where to come from, and he and Liu Yu shushed and asked for warmth. However, the way he looked at Liu Yu was different from before, a little more guarded and less trusting.
He actually came a long time ago, and originally wanted to come out to greet Liu Yu directly, after all, it was Liu Yu who brought Li Chuxia out in the first place.
But as soon as he heard what Liu Yu said, he immediately hid again, because he also wanted to know what Li Chuxia was thinking now.
Obviously, Li Chuxia's performance made him very satisfied, but Liu Yu's performance was not so satisfied.
A large camp with hundreds of miles of clouds.
At this moment, Baili Yunzheng's mood was very complicated, he was anxious and helpless, he couldn't wait to ask Li Chuxia immediately at this time, but he couldn't go.
Not to mention that he is leading the army, there is Shen Xu on the other side, if he knows that he is leaving and takes the opportunity to attack him, although he still trusts his subordinates very much, he is still a little worried.
"Go down, all of you."
Baili Yunzheng said to the people around him, it turned out that Guo Da came in, and then he gestured to Baili Yunzheng, and Baili Yunzheng understood what it meant.
"The second prince sent a secret letter."
After everyone left, Guo Da took out a letter from his arms.
Baili Yunzheng immediately opened the letter, and the expression on his face was much better after reading it. Guo Da, who was watching on the side, was very puzzled, what did the second prince write to make Baili Yunzheng so happy.
"After I leave, the army will be handed over to you, and I will wait for the people arranged by the second prince to come."
Baili Yunzheng threw the letter to Guo Da who looked puzzled and left, Guo Da became more and more confused when he heard Baili Yunzheng's words, and hurriedly opened the letter.
It turned out that the second prince said that he knew that Baili Yunzheng missed Li Chuxia very much, so he sent a general to replace him and let him rest assured to do his own thing.
Baili Yunzheng was now thinking about Li Chuxia in his heart, so he went out without thinking about it as soon as he saw the content of the letter.
When he went out, he had already brought out all the generals, who else could preside over the overall situation after Baili Yunzheng left, except for the second prince?
And Baili Yunzheng really planned to tell the second prince the news, and then let him think of a way, but how could the letter he had just sent out be replied to so quickly.
Guo Da shook his head, what he thought in his heart was that he was used to the leadership of Baili Yunzheng on weekdays, what if everyone had different opinions on a different general at this time?
Baili Yunzheng quickly arranged things, and then simply packed his luggage and prepared to cross the river to find Li Chuxia.
Of course, his army can't cross the river, because the goal is too obvious, but it's still easy for Baili Yunzheng to cross the river alone.
After some disguise, Baili Yunzheng crossed the Yangtze River.
"I heard that the princess is going to get married, and he is still married to the Gu family, which can be described as a strong alliance."
"But it's not, I heard that the princess is as beautiful as a fairy, if you are lucky enough to see it, even if you are a ghost, you will be romantic."
As for where Li Chuxia is, he doesn't need to inquire at all to know, with Li Chuxia's current identity, she is going to hold a big wedding, and naturally countless people know.
They are also the object of everyone's talk, and everywhere Yunzheng goes, he can hear everyone talking about this matter.
Baili Yunzheng couldn't help but speed up his pace, and soon found the Gu Mansion. He looked up at the plaque in the Gu Mansion and confirmed that he had found the right place.
He had gone smoothly all the way, crossed the river safely, and quickly inquired about the location of the Gu Mansion, but now he was in trouble.
The Gu Mansion's protection of Li Chuxia is not strict, with three layers inside and three layers outside, so that Baili Yunzheng has no way at all.
Of course, this is also understandable, Li Chuxia's status is noble, and now she is going to hold a big wedding with Wei Jingran, and there will be many people at that time, so it is reasonable to arrange so many guards.
"Ugh."
Baili Yunzheng sighed, it seems that the idea of wanting to see Li Chuxia today is shattered.
"Hello Miss."
Just when Baili Yunzheng was about to find a place to settle first, the guard at the gate of the Gu Mansion suddenly shouted. Baili Yunzheng followed the sound, isn't that the person he thinks about day and night?
People who want to come to the Gu Mansion are also worried that Li Chuxia will be in trouble, so they call her Miss. At this time, Gu Xue'er pulled Li Chuxia and said that she was going out to buy something for her.
Of course, the main thing is that she wants to go out and play, but she just found a valid reason.
Just when Baili Yunzheng was about to step forward, Shen Xu suddenly came on horseback, and Baili Yunzheng was worried that he would be recognized, so he hurriedly hid in the shadows.
"General Shen?"
Li Chuxia looked at Shen Xu with a puzzled expression, shouldn't he be commanding the army now? Could it be that there is something important military to tell yourself?
"Baili Yunzheng's army has retreated ten miles, and I don't think he will attack for the time being, so I came over to see you."
Shen Xu said happily, Baili Yunzheng's army was a stone pressing on his heart, and now that the army was retreating, his mood was naturally very happy.
Baili Yunzheng, who was on the side, naturally heard the news, it should have been ten days since he left the army, so the person who replaced him must have arrived.
However, he didn't understand why this person let the army retreat, although he had just suffered a defeat, but he still had the upper hand, as long as the ship was built, he could capture Jiangnan in one fell swoop.
"Did he retreat?"
Li Chuxia muttered to himself.
Baili Yunzheng shook his head, the army had already been handed over to the person sent by the second prince, since it was sent by the second prince, it must be credible, so there was no need to worry about it.
The most important thing for him now is to ask Li Chuxia for clarification.
"Where are you going?"
Shen Xu came here this time to do his part for the wedding of the two. Of course, there is also some flattery, because Li Chuxia still trusts himself very much after knowing that he has suffered a defeat.
"I'm going to go out with Sister Cher to buy some things."
Li Chuxia naturally wouldn't hide anything from Shen Xu.
"Write down what you want to buy and give it to me, I will do it for you, it's better for you to stay in the Gu Mansion, although Baili Yunzheng has retreated, but I suspect that he has bad intentions, if he sends a spy, wouldn't you come out to follow his way?"
Shen Xu persuaded Li Chuxia not to leave the Gu Mansion.
Baili Yunzheng on the side was angry, he could have almost asked Li Chuxia for clarification, but he came out at this time.
And he didn't let Li Chuxia go out of the house.
"Don't be alarmist, we're just going to buy something, where is there so much going on."
Gu Xue'er had a rare trip, but she was stopped by Shen Xu at this time, she was naturally very dissatisfied, and immediately retorted.
"Xue'er, forget it, the situation is special now, and when the situation gets better in a few days, I'll go out with you again."
Li Chuxia naturally knew that Gu Xue'er wanted to go out to play, but after hearing Shen Xu say this, she felt that it made sense, and after some consideration, she felt that it was better to stay in the house.
Hearing Li Chuxia say this, Gu Xue'er had no choice but to pout and agree. Then glared at Shen Xu viciously, and Shen Xu smiled helplessly.
Li Chuxia pulled Gu Xue'er, who looked reluctant, back.
"A few of you go here, a few of you go over there, patrol around the Gu Mansion to see if there are any suspicious people around, and once you find out, immediately arrest them."
Shen Xu assigned tasks to the people he brought.
