Chapter 423: Abandon the Darkness and Turn to the Light
He turned Shen Ruoxiao's body with concern, wanting to see if she was injured.
"Don't worry, I'm not hurt, I'll settle accounts with you when I go back."
Seeing the eyes of Xuanyuan Hao and Rou'er, Shen Ruoxiao was a little jealous, and he didn't feel good in his heart.
But now she's dressed as a man, no matter what, let's go back and talk about it!
Back in the barracks, Shen Ruoxiao began to stretch his face.
"You say, you and that woman, what are you two looking at blindly, and what are you doing with eyebrows!"
Shen Ruoxiao stood in front of Xuanyuan Hao, who was forced to sit on a chair and look up at Shen Ruoxiao.
Shen Ruoxiao enjoyed this gesture very much.
"Madame, listen to me." Seeing Shen Ruoxiao's small mouth and talking non-stop, Xuanyuan Hao couldn't help but feel sweet in his heart.
Then he hugged the beauty into his arms and explained the matter between Rou'er and the Sun King, which offset Shen Ruoxiao's jealousy.
"I see, then I understand the woman." Shen Ruoxiao fell into deep thought, and felt some sympathy for Rou'er.
"However, no matter what, let me see you like other women in the future, and deal with it according to family law!"
Suddenly, Shen Ruoxiao pointed at Xuanyuan Hao, with his hands on his hips and a serious expression, like a tigress.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Hao smiled instead of being angry, and nodded in cooperation with this grievance.
"What Madame said is that you should remember it for your husband."
……
The wind blew through the camps at night, and Rou'er stood in the wind and stared at Xuanyuan Hao's military camp in the distance, with a child's affection in her eyes.
The Sun King walked up behind her at some point and looked at her suspiciously.
He never seemed to have seen his sister look like that.
"Rou'er, why don't you stay in the tent and sleep, what are you doing running out in the middle of the night?" The Sun King asked.
Rou'er immediately retracted her gaze, pretending to look at the Sun King indifferently, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, but there was no smile in her eyes.
"It's okay, it's just stuffy, come out to breathe, and look at the stars."
Rou'er looked up at the stars in the sky, and the moonlight sprinkled on her face added a bit of softness.
The Sun King didn't believe Rou'er's words, and concluded that she had something on her mind.
He looked along the place where Rou'er's eyes were at the beginning, and Xuanyuan Hao's camp tent came into his eyes.
For a moment, he seemed to have some guesses, clenched his fists in anger, and then walked in front of Rou'er.
"Did that bastard Xuanyuan Hao bully you?" The Sun King pointed to Xuanyuan Hao's tent and said with a frown.
A hint of panic flashed in Rou'er's eyes, and she just glanced at the Sun King, then continued to look up at the starry sky without saying anything.
The King of the Burning Sun went through what had happened in the past few days in his heart, and he was even more sure that Rou'er had been bullied by Xuanyuan Hao.
Otherwise, how could he have withdrawn so easily? There must be something strange in it.
"If you don't say it, then I'll go find that bastard myself, and I'll settle this account with him!"
The Sun King clenched his fists and strode forward.
Rou'er immediately grabbed him, bit her lip, and her eyes were full of helplessness.
After a while, she sighed slightly, and her lips lightly opened: "He didn't bully me, it was my heart tied to him."
The Sun King's eyes were filled with surprise.
Rou'er let go of his arm, and her eyes fell to Xuanyuan Hao's barracks again, so tender but a little lonely.
Xu is that she knows in her heart that there is no him in her life, even if she has already secretly promised it, she has no desire to entangle, she just hopes that they will not be enemies.
"I also quietly let him go in the barracks before, and I begged him to let you go in the future, so this time he will retreat with a large army."
Rou'er was slightly relieved, but she still looked at the Sun King with a sad face.
The King of the Sun pursed his lips and didn't speak, slightly annoyed, but more distressed, Rou'er loved the wrong person.
"I know brother, you can't get over the loyalty hurdle in your heart, but now the top and bottom of Gu Aguo are not peaceful, is this the country you want to serve?"
Rou'er's tone suddenly became sonorous, but she had the demeanor of a female general.
The Sun King lowered his head and pursed his brows, he couldn't help but close his eyes, and his brow looked a little tangled.
Maybe he subconsciously knew that the emperor was not a Ming Jun, but his arrogance made him unable to betray him.
Seeing that the Sun King was a little shaken, Rou'er immediately took his hand and walked towards the inside of the barracks.
Even though it was night, the passage was still brightly lit.
She dragged the Sun King into a tent casually, and the soldiers in it lay on the bed but did not sleep, the lamp in front of the bed was still on, and when she saw the Sun King coming, they all got up and saluted.
"Get up, why don't you sleep so late?" The Sun King asked with a brow on his face, his face full of doubt.
"Back to the prince, this dead of night should really go to sleep, but the brothers are in a terrible pain, I really can't sleep, if you disturb the prince You are resting, please forgive the prince." A soldier with a hideous wound on his face bowed his head and said. E-book house
Rou'er looked at the Sun King's expression, and then pulled another soldier over and lifted his sleeve.
The soldier's arms were covered in wounds, some of which had scabbed, while others were still bleeding.
"Brother, who of the soldiers in this tent are not injured? Not to mention these injured for the time being, and even more so there are not a few who are disabled for a lifetime, how many of them have closed their eyes forever on the battlefield, and their bodies have nowhere to bury? I think my brother should know it in his heart. ”
Rou'er said with a crying voice, and the soldiers around her couldn't help but be moved.
He knew the cruelty of war, after all, he had survived that bloodshed, and he was quite touched to look at their injured bodies.
"I ...... It's my fault that I didn't protect you ......."
The Sun King's eyes were slightly red at some point, and his voice trembled a little.
Rou'er continued to pull the Sun King out of the tent and walked around the barracks again.
Almost every tent they went, and none of the soldiers went unharmed.
Some soldiers even cried directly, they couldn't sleep because of the pain at night, and they had to train crazy during the day, even if they were beaten with iron, they couldn't bear it!
"Brother, don't you understand? In order to be loyal to the emperor in your mouth, how many wives have been separated and died? How many people are complaining! Xuanyuan Hao is not a fuel-efficient lamp, if he breaks through the border in the future, have you ever thought about what these brothers who were born and died with you at that time? ”
Rou'er changed her usual weakness and roared indignantly.
The Sun King bit his lip, and his eyes couldn't help but think a little more.
Did he really do something wrong?
Once a war is provoked, it is only them, the soldiers and the people, who suffer.
And those big officials who are happy and happy with their money have no effect.
The emperor he had been loyal to never seemed to have ever comforted those of them who lived on the tip of a sword.
"Have you ever wondered what will happen to you if you keep doing this? If you lose, Xuanyuan Hao will not let you go, and the emperor will not let you go. If you win, the emperor will be jealous of you, and he will definitely not be able to tolerate you at that time. Rou'er approached the Sun King and said.
The Sun King took a deep breath, as if he had figured it out, raised his eyes and smiled at Rou'er, and the gloom on his face disappeared like smoke.
"You're right, Rou'er, I was too obsessed with it before, I just wanted to protect the emperor well, but I ignored the essence of the matter, I didn't expect that the person who woke me up in the end was you."
The Sun King smiled self-deprecatingly, and his tone was much lighter.
He figured it out.
He wanted to protect his country, not the emperor in name, let alone those high-ranking ministers.
"Rou'er, I don't want to lead troops to fight anymore, I didn't expect that I would be so decisive in my life, and I would hate killing so much. Leave with me in a few days, and I will take you away and fly away, and never ask about the world again. There was remorse and relief in the eyes of the Sun King.
Rou'er nodded, looked at Xuanyuan Hao's tent in the distance, and suddenly raised a smile, she should also let go completely.
"But there's one more thing I want to do before I leave. I want to help Xuanyuan Hao's kid, although I was unhappy with him before, but for the sake of his righteousness, I will be a good person to the end, and it can be regarded as a meaningful thing. ”
The Sun King looked at Rou'er and smiled meaningfully.
In fact, he didn't want Rou'er to see Xuanyuan Hao again before parting, which could be regarded as an official farewell.
Rou'er nodded, and the next day she wrote to Xuanyuan Hao, inviting her to come to the camp to talk.
In the letter, she had told the truth about what the Sun King had decided.
When Xuanyuan Hao received the letter, he immediately showed it to Shen Ruoxiao.
Shen Ruoxiao stared at the letter suspiciously, feeling that the other party was cheating.
But Xuanyuan Hao didn't think so, Rou'er's personality was still obvious to all, and this time he still believed what the letter said.
"No, this matter must not be sloppy, if you are captured again, what will you let me do?"
Shen Ruoxiao clutched the letter in his hand and looked at Xuanyuan Hao worriedly.
"It's okay, believe me, it's going to be okay, Rou'er is a good person." Xuanyuan Hao rubbed Shen Ruoxiao's head and said with a doting face.
Shen Ruoxiao pursed her lips, and suddenly felt a little surprised.
It's intimate to scream a soft mouthful.
She looked at Xuanyuan Hao with a look in her eyes like a complaining little wife.
Xuanyuan Hao seemed to see through her thoughts, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a smile, and he reached out to pull Shen Ruoxiao into his arms, with a playful look in his eyes.
"Jealous? It's so cute, but don't worry, Madame, for her husband to be absolutely guarded like jade, only for Madame to see alone. ”
The smile on the corner of Xuanyuan Hao's mouth was even stronger, and his provocative eyes stayed on Shen Ruoxiao's face.
Shen Ruoxiao immediately glanced at him, hammered him angrily, and then immediately withdrew from his arms.
She also understood the meaning of Xuanyuan Hao's words, he had to go this time, and in that case, she couldn't sit still.
"This matter is very important, I must go with you, otherwise I really don't feel at ease."
Shen Ruoxiao said confidently, and there was no room for negotiation in his tone.
Xuanyuan Hao smiled helplessly, his wife could only be spoiled by him, otherwise what else could he do.
"Okay, let's go together." Xuanyuan Hao stood up, put a hand on Shen Ruoxiao's shoulder, and stared at her face with a smile.
