Chapter 273: Bad News Returns

Live to meet people! Death to see the corpse! Xuan Yue roared, and the look on her face was fiercer than she had ever been.

Xuan Lang frowned slightly when he saw this, but didn't say anything.

"Your Royal Highness, you are also injured, you should go over and rest for a while, there is the last general here." Gu Lisheng saw that the wound on his arm was still dripping blood, so he couldn't help but persuade softly.

Xuan Yue sat on the ground a little weakly when she heard this, and the rest of the elite soldiers also rushed forward, and everyone struggled to pick up those stones.

"Gu Gongzi, what did you hear when we were fighting?" Xuan Yue asked in a deep voice.

Gu Lisheng thought for a moment, and then exclaimed: "Yes! The last general heard someone say that the people from the General's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion were all imprisoned! ”

"Not bad!" Xuan Yue's expression turned cold, and she said, "Uncle Huang was distracted and killed when he heard this!" ”

"What does Your Highness mean, is this something that someone deliberately said to the prince?" Gu Lisheng frowned and asked in surprise.

In fact, if you think about it, you know that this must be deliberate, and regardless of whether what the person said is true or not, even if it is me, this kind of thing should never be brought out at this time! On the battlefield, how dangerous it is, the slightest carelessness will take your life. If that person is not suitable for purpose, Xuanyue is 10,000 people who don't believe it!

"Just ...... Who said that the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion were imprisoned? Xuan Yue got up and asked the soldiers who were still alive step by step, but it was pointless to ask them like this.

When the soldiers heard this, they all stopped their movements, looked at each other, and shook their heads.

Xuan Lang stepped forward at this time, looked at Xuan Yue and said, "If this matter is really deliberate, that person may have already lost his life, or he doesn't dare to admit it at all, you can't ask the result if you ask like this." ”

This matter cannot be traced.

Xuan Yue fell silent when he heard this, he only hoped that Mu Liang would be safe and sound now.

It wasn't until the bright moon hung high that the stones blocking the entrance of the canyon were completely cleaned up, and Xuan Yue and the others hurriedly stepped forward to search for it.

There were too many corpses inside, and the light was dim at night, so it was extremely difficult for everyone to rummage through.

"Found it!" I don't know how long it took before I heard a joyful voice pierce the silent night sky.

When everyone heard this, they gathered over, only to see an unrecognizable corpse lying on the ground, wearing Mu Liang's armor.

Xuan Yue and the others were shocked in their hearts and froze in place in disbelief.

"How is this possible?" Xuan Yue muttered in a low voice, although he had already prepared for the worst in his heart, but seeing Mu Liang lying here with his own eyes at this moment, he was still shocked and couldn't believe it.

Gu Lisheng frowned and squatted down, touched the corpse up and down a few times, suddenly made a move, and his hand stopped at the heart of the corpse.

That touch of hardness was the heart guard that Gu Jiuge gave him before leaving.

"It's the prince!" Gu Lisheng said bitterly, his eyes were red, and he tried his best to hide his sadness.

When everyone heard this, they immediately made an uproar, and the commander of the First Army died like this, how could they feel at ease? How to fight the next battle!

"Your Highness, what should I do next?" Gu Lisheng asked in a deep voice, the top priority is how to stabilize the morale of the army. If the army's heart is scattered, it will naturally be defeated without a fight.

Xuan Lang took the lead, looked at the panicked army, and raised his voice: "The enemy army injured my soldiers, killed my Dayue Liang King, this hatred is not shared!" We must avenge His Royal Highness King Liang! The enemy must not be allowed to succeed! ”

As his words fell, all the soldiers only felt encouraged, and they were angry, and said in unison: "Annihilate the enemy army and avenge the country!" ”

"Fifth brother, Gu Gongzi, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, we must retreat as soon as possible. I will order someone to rush back to the royal city overnight and tell my father about the martyrdom of my uncle. Xuan Lang turned to look at Xuan Yue and Gu Lisheng and said in a deep voice.

Now that Mu Liang is gone, as the elder brother of the prince, he naturally has to take on this responsibility.

Xuan Yue frowned when she heard this, and said disapprovingly: "Why is the imperial brother in such a hurry to send the news of the imperial uncle's death back to the royal city? Could it be that just by a heart guard and this body of clothes, it can be concluded that this corpse is the emperor's uncle? ”

"Fifth brother, I know you refuse to accept this fact. But Gu Xiao's cannon barrel facing the imperial uncle is something we have all witnessed with our own eyes, if you can, I hope that the imperial uncle can be safe and sound, just like you. But the facts are in front of you! Xuan Lang comforted in a low voice, and then regardless of Xuan Yue's intentions, he ordered the soldiers to carry Mu Liang's body back to the camp.

That night, Xuan Lang insisted on passing the news of Mu Liang's death back.

The night was dark and the wind was high, and a figure flashed through the camp, heading towards the canyon where the previous battle had been.

There was already someone waiting there in the dead canyon, and when he heard footsteps behind him, the man turned around, his face bloody.

"I have kept my promise to get rid of Mu Liang for you, when will my brother Wang come back?"

The person who spoke was none other than Da Yuanlie!

The man who came wore a black cloak and covered himself tightly.

He opened his mouth and said in a low voice: "I have sent someone to escort His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to Nanban, as for why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not arrived yet, I think it is because he has been delayed on the way, and His Royal Highness does not have to worry." ”

Da Yuanlie snorted coldly when he heard this, and said angrily: "If it weren't for my brother Wang's previous letter saying that you are my own person, otherwise I would never be in the company of a traitor like you!" In any case, as long as my brother is safe and sound, I will obediently cooperate with you, but if he has half a point of difference, I will definitely kill you with my own hands to sacrifice my brother's life! ”

After speaking, he glanced at the person in front of him with disdain, then took the big knife in his hand and left the canyon without looking back, leaving only the man in black standing in place, with a tall and tall posture, and his body was full of coldness.

When the news of Mu Liang's death was reported back to Wangcheng, it was already the fifth day, and at that time, Gu Jiuge had just finished the funeral of Gu Qingxue's mother and daughter, and he and Mu Wanyu would put the Prime Minister's Mansion in order.

On this day, she was sitting in front of the bookcase, holding a pen and writing something.

"Miss, there is news from the palace, let you and the master enter the palace immediately, the master is ready, waiting in the front hall." Hua Chun came in and said softly, Gu Jiuge nodded when he heard this, folded the letter he had just written and handed it to her.

"You can help me send this letter to the border." She whispered.

Hua Chun nodded, put the letter away, and then followed her to the front hall.

"Daddy, do you know what happened to His Majesty's sudden summons?" Gu Jiuge looked at Gu Shuyuan and asked, Dong Guifei's matter has been settled, Mu Yao announced their entry into the palace at this time, could it be that something happened at the border pass.

Gu Shuyuan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is in a hurry, and I don't know what it is." ”

The father and daughter didn't think much about it anymore and hurried to the palace.

When the two arrived, they found that not only his father and daughter had been summoned, but even Zhao Gao was there.

Mu Yao sat upright, his face was a little pale, and the air pressure in the imperial study was even more terrifyingly low.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what happened?" Gu Shuyuan saw that there was something wrong with the atmosphere, and couldn't help asking.

Mu Yao sighed when he heard this, raised his eyes, and looked at Gu Jiuge.

"There is news from the border pass that Ah Liang was ambushed in a battle a few days ago, was attacked by Gu Xiao, and lost his life."

His voice was low and hoarse, and he trembled slightly.

At that moment, Gu Jiuge's mind went blank, and he stood there in a daze, completely losing the ability to think, and he couldn't come to his senses for a long time.

There was a deathly silence in the study.

"Your Majesty, is this news sure to be true?" After a long time, Gu Jiuge asked in a dumb voice.

Mu Yao nodded, and Wang Cheng next to him saw this scene and hurriedly handed the things and letters sent back by the border pass to Gu Jiuge.

Looking at the heart goggles lying on the tray, Gu Jiuge frowned, and his heart was faintly painful.

"Miss!" Seeing that her legs were weak, Hua Chun exclaimed and hurriedly stepped forward to support her falling body, Gu Shuyuan and Zhao Gao also surrounded her, worried.

"Miss, calm down first." Hua Chun comforted softly, but Gu Jiuge's body still slipped uncontrollably.

She held the heart shield in her hand, her pale lips opened and closed slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, her eyes rolled and she passed out.

When Gu Jiuge woke up, she had already returned to the small courtyard of Yingge, Mu Wanyi was accompanying her by the bedside, her eyes were red and swollen, and she must have been overly sad after learning the news of Mu Liang's death.

"Ge'er, you're finally awake! Feeling better? Seeing that she opened her eyes, Mu Wanyi hurriedly wiped the tears on her face and asked with concern.

Gu Jiuge opened her mouth to speak, but her emotions collapsed several times, she bit her lip flap desperately, trying her best to suppress herself, not letting herself cry, and refused to stop until her lip flap was oozing blood.

When Mu Wanyu saw her like this, she became more and more distressed.

"Ge'er, I know you're sad, but ......"

"Sister-in-law, will you let me be alone?" She let out a weak voice, then closed her eyes.

Mu Wanyi knew that she was sad, so she could only leave first as she said.

It wasn't until there was no one in the house that Gu Jiuge dared to cry loudly, his voice was so sad and desperate that people cried when he heard it.

She held the heart guard on her chest and said, "As I said, if something happens to you, I don't think I'll survive." ”

Outside the door, listening to Gu Jiuge's heart-rending cry, Huachun was distressed and burst into tears, she wanted to go in to comfort her, but was stopped by Mu Wanyu and said, "Ge'er is sad now, let her be alone and quiet." ”

"Young lady, the slave is really afraid that something will happen to the young lady." Huachun said crying.

"No, it won't." Mu Wanyi glanced at the door, listening to Gu Jiuge's cry, she said with some heartache: "She is not that kind of person, Ah Liang's person, she will never be so vulnerable." ”

……

That night, Gu Jiuge struggled to get up, stumbled to the cabinet, and turned out the bright red wedding dress.

"Mu Liang, what should I do?"
