Su Jinyao didn't want to drink this glass of wine, but she was still hesitant in her heart. She picked up her glass and asked, "What kind of explanation do you want to give Che?" Since it's an explanation, why can't you let me say it myself? ”

The second prince said: "I brought you into the camp, and there are tens of thousands of pairs of eyes watching, and there are naturally other people's spies among them." If I am letting you go back and explain this matter to the imperial brother, when you come back, how can I avoid the eyes and ears of those people? Even if I am now the commander of the Qingfan army, I can't stop the mouths of the people. ”

"Then you bring this to him." After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she untied the combo crossbow given to her by Gu Xuebin from her waist and said, "I hope you are not using me this time." ”

"No, I never took advantage of you, I just asked you to help me." After Cang Qianmiao finished speaking, he took the combo crossbow in Su Jinyao's hand, looked at it, and said with a smile: "This crossbow is so good, the power is amazing, (shè) wears my armor." ”

Seeing Su Jinyao's eyes widen, he hurriedly explained, "Don't worry, I won't leave it privately." I handed this over to the imperial brother, and then withdrew my troops back to Qingfan. And I know that after the royal brother goes back this time, he can take over the throne. ”

Throne! Su Jinyao's heart suddenly swelled, and she was a little uncomfortable.

Yes, Gu Xuebin is now the crown prince (diàn), and if he takes over the throne, he will be the current emperor. And she......

Su Jinyao felt in a trance that the future was so far away.

Thinking of this, Su Jinyao gently touched the wine glass in her hand with the wine glass in the second prince's hand, and drank the bamboo wine in the cup.

Gu Xuebin sent the tokens one by one, dispatched troops, and arranged the deployment of the broken formation. I got a report from Tan Ma that Su Jinyao broke into the formation directly.

Gu Xuebin frowned, and his heart jumped twice. Immediately, his right eyelid also jumped, and he was uneasy.

"Prepare your horses and take a look before the battle." After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he put on his battle armor, went out on his horse and left the camp, and went straight to the battlefield.

He was only watching from the rear, and there was no reason why the manager needed to be in charge of all the battles. And now, he was anxiously looking for a place where he could watch the battle from a close distance, and wanted to find the direction of Su Jinyao.

However, when he came to the front of the battle, there was a report from the Malay, saying that it was a chief general of Qingfan who had captured Miss Liu.

"What do you mean captured? Where were people taken? Gu Xuebin always felt that things (qíng) were strange, but now everything was out of his control.

After weighing it up, Gu Xuebin said again: "Pass the order and go all out to break the formation." ”

However, breaking the formation was surprisingly easy for him. After his soldiers broke through three levels in a row, an envoy from Qingfan came with a gift box, saying that the commander of Qingfan ordered the withdrawal of the army, and he came to negotiate peace with the commander of the Cloud Dome Kingdom.

Negotiating peace before the battle, not having to continue fighting, can minimize casualties, this should be the best outcome. However, when Gu Xuebin saw that the brocade box contained a delicate combo crossbow, he was immediately not calm. waved his big hand and said, "No, if you don't put Su Jinyao back, my Cloud Dome Kingdom will never negotiate peace." ”

"Wait. Don't worry, I have something to say. The Qingfan envoy hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The boss also said that inviting the disciples of the divine doctor to go back is also one of the conditions attached to the withdrawal of the army. The disciple of the divine doctor has also responded (yǔn), and this combo crossbow is a token. ”

"Absolutely impossible, unless I see him in person." Gu Xuebin grabbed the combo crossbow and aimed it directly at the envoy opposite, and said, "The two armies are fighting, and they will not be killed." You go, tell Cang Qianmiao, and send Su Jinyao back to me unscathed, otherwise, I will drive all the way to attack Qingfan. ”

The envoy looked at the sharp arrow tip on the combo crossbow and hurriedly took a few steps back. But he said, "Please think twice about the prince (diàn)." If you agree to withdraw at this time, we will suffer fewer casualties on both sides. If the fight continues, the dead and wounded soldiers are still trivial, and after (diàn) go back, how can they explain to the emperor? Don't you want all the victories you have? ”

"Unless, you send Su Jinyao back." Gu Xuebin said it word by word.

He had never thought of exchanging his woman for anything, and now if he agreed, it would be tantamount to acquiescing to exchanging Jinyao's freedom for victory, then Jinyao would lose too much.

With a "whoosh", a crossbow bolt burst through the air and was nailed into the shoulder of the Qingfan envoy. It wasn't a vital place, but the blood splattered, and the pain made him fall to the ground.

Gu Xuebin still pointed at him with a combo crossbow and said, "Get out, let Cang Qianmiao send Su Jinyao back." Otherwise, I will attack Qingfan and die without regret. ”

Qingfan's envoy endured the pain and turned (shēn) to climb on the horse, and Gu Xuebin said again: "Take the crossbow arrow like this, go back and show it to Su Jinyao." Let her know what I want. ”

"Yes, got it." The Qingfan envoy gritted his teeth and climbed onto the horse, pulling the reins with one hand to urge the horse to run.

General Sun had already understood, and after the Qingfan envoy left, he stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty the Crown Prince (diàn), is it really not thinking about it anymore?" I guess...... Is Miss Liu also willing to sacrifice herself in exchange for this victory? ”

Gu Xuebin turned his head, looked at General Sun with cold eyes, and asked, "Would you let your woman change the victory of a war?" I won't anyway. I have a hand and a sword, and I will use my skills to win a battle, not rely on her. ”

General Sun was frightened by Gu Xuebin's eyes, and hurriedly said, "Yes, my subordinates have said a lot." ”

Gu Xuebin frowned, looked at General Sun again, and asked, "Do you think that this (diàn) is joking with human lives, exchanging the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers for the safety of my women?" ”

General Sun hurriedly shook his head and said, "My subordinates don't dare, don't dare." ”

"There's nothing you don't dare, it's okay to say it directly. I also understand what you mean, and being able to win without bloodshed is of course the best outcome. If only one woman is sent, it will be better to keep the country peaceful. Hasn't this always been the purpose of the royal family and relatives? ”

Gu Xuebin sneered and said, "For the sake of the so-called country, how many women's lives have been cut off?" Which of them is really willing to kiss? ”

"However, Miss Liu just went to be a doctor." General Sun said boldly: "Isn't the disciple of the divine doctor supposed to cure the sick and save people?" ”

"Then I also have to listen to Jinyao tell me personally that she has to go to Qingfan to treat and save people." After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, Rama turned around, faced the soldiers behind him (shēn), and said, "Pass the order, if the Qingfan people don't send Miss Liu back before dawn tomorrow, I will attack Qingfan." If there is something that disagrees, I will not force it, and I can stay in the camp. If there is anyone who is willing to follow, he will go the same way with Ben (diàn) to save Miss Liu back. ”

"Your Majesty, I am willing to go with you to save Miss Liu back." The first person squeezed out of the treatment turned out to be Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu carried a big knife behind his back, but he also carried a basket cross-legged, which was full of medicinal herbs. Su Jinyao gave him a lot of things, so he went out this time not as an ordinary soldier, but as a reserve military doctor.

Now that he heard the coach say that Su Jinyao was taken away by the Qingfan, of course he was the first to come out.

Gu Xuebin nodded and said, "Jin Yao didn't misunderstand you. ”

"I'll go too." Another relatively young soldier came out, that is, at the age of seventeen or eighteen, stood up and walked to the side of Xiao Wu (shēn) and said, "Miss Liu, she also talked to me, she told me to take care, and then I came back safely." So, this time I'm going to save her. ”

Gu Xuebin didn't know this little soldier, but nodded at him. But Seventeen, who was hidden in the shadows, recognized that this was the one who asked him to deliver a letter to his mother and sister.

Unexpectedly, Su Jinyao said a word to him at the beginning, and later asked him about his (qíng), and now he remembered it.

Afterwards, more soldiers walked outward, standing behind Xiao Wu's (shēn). Most of them were silent, but some whispered about Su Jinyao's benefits, most of which Su Jinyao had given them treatment; There are also gratitude to Su Jinyao for the fresh fruit soup she boiled every day and gave it to them.

Others just saw Su Jinyao from afar, and felt that this woman was strong and kind, and regarded her as a small flower in their hearts.

Gu Xuebin looked at the increasing number of soldiers behind Xiao Wu (shēn), looked up in the direction of Qing Fan and smiled slightly. His idea is right, Jin Yao is really a big banner in the barracks, leading the will of most of the people in the entire army.

Su Jinyao was also taken aback when she saw the envoy with a crossbow arrow on his shoulder. turned to look at the second prince Cang Qianmiao, and said: "Now that you are riding a tiger, let me go back, and I will find another opportunity to go to Qingfan." ”

"But there's not enough time." Cang Qianmiao was so anxious that he grabbed Su Jinyao's arm and said, "I have to go back immediately so that I can inherit the throne in time." ”

"Inherit the throne?" Su Jinyao looked at Cang Qianmiao coldly and said, "You are the second prince of the Cloud Dome Kingdom, and your surname is Cang." Are you in a hurry to inherit Qingfan's throne? ”

Su Jinyao really doesn't understand, is this second prince even missing his own ancestors? Is the throne that important? Fight with Gu Xuebin, and now you want to go to Qingfan to fight?

"Jinyao, this is my business, you can go back with me." The second prince also looked at him with a condensed gaze, and then said, "Since this is the case, I have to wronged you, Jin Yao." ”

After that, he shouted outside: "Come on, take this divine doctor disciple down and take care of it strictly." "For the second prince who said that he would turn his face and turn his face, Su Jinyao is not the first time to see him. It's just that she didn't expect that the artillery of the attack would really sound as scheduled.

Su Jinyao experienced Gu Xuebin's stubbornness for the first time. He's never been so reckless, has he? Now, for the sake of her, he waved his troops to attack and attacked directly towards the camp of the Qingfan people.

When Su Jinyao came out of her tent, she was stopped by several Qingfan soldiers. At the same time, each of them also carried a war python.

"Get out of the way, I'm leaving, no one can stop me." Su Jinyao took a step forward, her voice full of coldness.

A Qingfan soldier said to Su Jinyao in a very lame tone: "Girl, where is the boss going?" ”

"How can we talk about having a pì use? Since he's not here, you can say that I ran away on my own. After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she was about to break out again.

But as soon as the Qingfan soldiers whistled, those war pythons swam around and surrounded Su Jinyao.

If it was one or two war pythons, Su Jinyao didn't care about it at all. But the war python that was thicker than her arm for several days surrounded her with letters, and it might not be so easy to break out.

And this is the camp of the Qingfan people, can she defeat ten with one, and can she defeat ten thousand with one?

The Qingfan soldier stopped a war python that was about to wrap around Su Jinyao's legs, and said, "Girl, please wait a little, maybe the ending will be different?" ”

Su Jinyao said: "If I don't go out, the Cloud Dome Kingdom and Qingfan will continue to fight, are you willing to watch your compatriots shed blood and sacrifice?" ”

"We can take the girl to see it, it's on the tower over there." The Qingfan man pointed to the south.

There is a four-story tower in that direction, which is the commanding height of the camp and has always been used as a lookout in the barracks.

Su Jinyao looked at the camp gate, then at the tower, nodded and agreed. Rather than stalemate here, let's go up and see what's going on first. If possible, she can also deliver a message to Gu Xuebin.

There was only a simple wooden ladder to climb up the tower, and Su Jinyao was in a hurry, so she climbed up from the ladder in a few clicks.

The view here is really much wider, and the height of a four-story building is nothing in modern times, but it can be seen far in ancient times. In particular, there was still a plain in front of her as a battlefield, so she could see the situation of the two armies facing each other (qíng) clearly.

Gu Xuebin wore a black robe and silver armor, and was at the front of the team in the Cloud Dome Country. And in front of him was the second prince of the cowhide armor, (shēn) shape was much taller than Gu Xuebin. However, the momentum of the two people is comparable.

But it's a pity that from here, you can't see the qíng on Gu Xuebin's face at all, and at most you can only see one of his outlines. It's too hard to get a signal.

"Brother Huang, haven't you ever thought that if you continue to move forward, you will lose the victory that you have already reached." The second prince glanced at the army of Gu Xuebin (shēn) and Hou Hao Hao (dàng) and said, "After this battle, how many people will be alive after you (shēn)?" Just for a woman, is it worth it? ”

"It's worth it." Gu Xuebin nodded affirmatively and said, "For me, Jin Yao is the only one who can give up everything and can't give up. And these soldiers, they also came with me voluntarily. Jinyao is also their banner now. ”

"But what if I said that if you don't quit the army, you might really lose her?" After the second prince finished speaking, he pointed back and said, "Do you see the tower in my camp?" It was completely wooden. ”

"What do you mean?" Gu Xuebin frowned, with a hint of bad premonition. When he looked up at the tower, he saw the silhouette of a young girl (shēn) on the tower, also looking towards him.

Although the girl was wearing the costume of the Qingfan people, and her face could not be seen clearly from too far away, but when he looked at the outline of the waist (shēn), Gu Xuebin could identify that it was Su Jinyao.

"What is she going up there for?" Gu Xuebin was anxious and asked the second prince, "What are you going to do?" ”

"My soldiers are stacking firewood under that tower. As soon as a war breaks out on this side, someone will immediately ignite the fire. ”

After the second prince finished speaking, he also glanced back, waved his hand at the tower, and then said, "That wooden tower is estimated to be burned down in an instant in such a hot weather, right?" Even if Jinyao she (shēn) is flexible, she can easily come down without a ladder. But the following has become a sea of fire, do you think she has the incorruptible body of King Kong, can she survive in a desperate situation? ”

"You ......" Gu Xuebin gritted his teeth and said, "What conditions do you want?" Jinyao, she has already regarded you as a friend, but you have repeatedly used her? She broke into the formation single-handedly, also because she believed in you, but was she too naïve? ”

On the contrary, Jin Yao is not naïve at all. She always thinks much more than ordinary women. ”

The second prince also looked back at the wooden tower and said, "She believes in me, but it's also for you." Have you ever wondered how hard it would be to be with you for her share (shēn)? Will the Father agree? Will the imperial grandmother give you a decree to marry? There are also many princesses who are close to each other and the concubines of the court officials and eunuchs, all of whom will be sent to the palace. And she, if she is lucky enough to help you win this war, she has her own (shēn) share, and it is only natural (qíng) to be with you. ”

After a pause, the second prince asked again: "Brother Huang, you should know that Jin Yao is not the kind of woman who is content to be a harem concubine, she wants everything." And now, she is fighting for herself one bargaining chip after another. Until one day, when she is on your side, who will be able to stop you? ”

The words of the second prince were all said in Gu Xuebin's heart. He put all his mind on Su Jinyao's (shēn), how could he not see through her thoughts?

Even though she has a share of the Fang family's orphan (shēn), the Fang family's case has not yet been rehabilitated, and she is really a cut behind herself after she is equated with a criminal minister.

If the emperor passes the throne to himself, the imperial grandmother must immediately set up the throne for herself. Then, Su Jinyao is just a disciple of the divine doctor, but she is just a strange woman on the rivers and lakes, even if she has saved the queen mother, at most, it would be good to be able to let her enter the palace as a concubine.

Therefore, the difficulties in Su Jinyao's heart and the hardships in her heart, Gu Xuebin also understands.

"But what do you mean by being caught between us now?" Gu Xuebin turned to look at the second prince and said, "Don't say that you just mean to fulfill us?" I won't believe it. ”

To be honest, Gu Xuebin was already full of jealousy about Su Jinyao's loneliness (shēn) leaving and going directly to the second prince. Now if it weren't for Su Jinyao (shēn) in the wooden tower, there would be real danger, and he would have been eager to pull her over and beat her up (pì) fiercely.

Listening to Gu Xuebin's words, he looked at his rather skeptical eyes.
