Chapter 147 The Truth
The northern army was like a bamboo, and in the next few days, several battles with the southern army were victorious, and the battle report was sent back to the north, and the lord of the country was happy, and the camp was even more feasting to reward the army.
"General!" A soldier saw that Scarlet Smoke was always sullen at the banquet, so he followed up and asked with concern, "General, is something happening, General, you look so worried?" ”
Scarlet Yan was stunned, and when she heard someone talking to her, she tilted her head slightly, gathered the anxiety between her eyebrows and eyes, and waved her hand gently, "Don't worry, it's just that it's too stuffy inside, I'll go out for a walk." ”
"I see!" The little soldier was still skeptical, and it was not easy to continue to investigate, so he said, "In that case, the little one will not bother the general!" ”
After that, he turned around and was about to retreat, Scarlet Smoke hesitated in his heart and made up his mind, "You wait!" ”
"Is there anything else the general needs to command?" The soldier stepped forward with a smile on his face.
Scarlet Smoke lowered her eyes, looking preoccupied, and after a while, she slowly opened her eyes and regained her previous vigor and firmness.
"You go and inform everyone, and when the banquet is over, we will return to the garrison of the Northern Military Camp immediately!"
When the soldier heard this order, he was stunned for a moment, and finally the life and death of the enemy's leader were uncertain, so why did he go back at this time?
"But, General, shouldn't we take advantage of the victory now?" The soldier cautiously probed, "The Southern Army is now equivalent to a swarm of flies without a head, and it is the time when the army is in chaos, if we ...... at this time"
Scarlet Yan raised her hand impatiently and interrupted the soldier's unfinished words, she didn't think of this, obviously revenge was close at hand, but when she stabbed the sharp blade into Wei Chimu's muscles, she began to shake again, and she began to feel unbearable.
"Don't say it, I have my own plans, just go and tell everyone this order." Scarlet Smoke's tone became serious, making it impossible to refuse, and he didn't dare to refuse.
"Yes!" When the soldier saw it, he left in a panic, and it didn't take long for the whole army to know about returning to the place where the northern military camp was stationed, although there were some voices of discussion, but after all, it had been so long, everyone had seen it, and they all believed in the general of the cavalry.
The banquet was soon over, and that night, the army was reorganized and rushed back to the camp of the northern army overnight.
Scarlet Smoke bowed his head sullenly all the way, and everyone was only thinking about other unexpected strategies, so they didn't bother much.
After returning to the camp in the north, Scarlet Smoke was naturally admired by tens of thousands of troops, but Scarlet Smoke made an excuse and returned to his barracks alone on the grounds of physical discomfort.
She was indeed exhausted, and what appeared when she opened and closed her eyes was the cold and pale appearance of Yu Chimu soaked in blood, and before she knew it, the scarlet smoke was suddenly startled, only to realize that her back was also soaked with sweat.
She has been worried about Wei Chimu in her heart, although Scarlet Yan is reluctant to admit it, but she can't deny her nervous sweat and heart that has been hanging.
In the middle of the night, there was already silence all around, only the slight lights flickered, and the scarlet smoke never closed his eyes, and now he finally made up his mind that she was going to sneak into the southern Xinjiang, and Wei Chimu was dead or alive, she had to go to find out
Scarlet Smoke got up neatly, brought a horse, turned over and got on the horse without saying anything, and headed in the opposite direction to the northern army, and also towards the southern frontier where she was worried day by day.
At this moment, in the military camp of the commander of southern Xinjiang, it was bright all night, and several military doctors accompanying him gathered in front of Wei Chimu's bed one after another, but they all hung their heads helplessly.
Although the wound was bandaged, because of excessive blood loss, Wei Chimu had not opened his eyes since the battlefield, his face was pale, and even his breathing gradually weakened.
"Doctor, are you really helpless?"
Wood spoke hoarsely, his eyes swollen, and he didn't seem to close his eyes for days.
"There's no way...... the military doctor sighed heavily, "We've done our best to rescue and do what needs to be done, and then it's only the prince himself!" ”
Mu's expression became dim, he and Huo, as Yu Chimu's personal guards, couldn't be clearer about what happened that day, and Yu Chimu had not suffered any injuries before, but they all recovered at an astonishing speed.
And now, I am afraid that Yu Chimu is also bent on dying under the sword of Scarlet Smoke, so that Scarlet Smoke can relieve his anger.
"Okay, okay, in that case, what are you still doing here!" Huo roared in a violent temper, "The prince is not dead yet!" One by one, you will cry and get out! ”
"Yes!"
The idle people in the barracks all retreated, and for a while, only the unconscious Wei Chimu and Huo and Mu were left.
"If the prince can't wake up again, do you say, will we definitely lose this war?" After a long silence, the fire began to break the oppressive atmosphere.
"It's hard to say...... Mu closed his swollen eyes tiredly, but his keen ears suddenly heard a rustling sound outside the tent.
At this moment, Huo Ye obviously heard this subtle sound, and the bodies of the two collapsed, and their hands pressed on the position of the handle of the knife on their waists.
After Scarlet Smoke identified Wei Chimu's tent, he saw dozens of military doctors leave, and the candlelight in the tent was much weaker, so he relaxed his vigilance and slipped to the front door of the tent.
In a situation where she was in a hurry, Scarlet couldn't care about it so much, so she opened the curtain lightly, no matter whether there was danger inside, she wanted to see Wei Chimu again.
But as soon as she stepped into the threshold of the tent with her front feet, there was a chill on her neck, and she knew that above her neck was an extremely sharp sword, and if she moved it again at this moment, the sword would cut her throat mercilessly!
"Who are you!" Under the darkness, the ears of the crimson smoke sounded coldly, without the slightest temperature.
"I'm just here to see a person," Scarlet Yan was already fearless, and her tone was surprisingly flat, she rushed to southern Xinjiang overnight, and she was originally a good realization of nine deaths.
"I'm afraid, you'll have to wait until you're a ghost to come and see him!" Huo sneered, and the sword against Scarlet Smoke's neck was ready to slash through it.
"Wait!"
Under the dim light, Mu could see clearly the face of the person in front of him, although his hair was messy and his lips were pale, but he would not be mistaken.
"My subordinates have seen the princess!" Mu pretended to be calm and said, in fact, how could his heart still calm down!
The fire also trembled, "How is it possible?" The princess ...... "When she saw her appearance clearly, she put her sword back into the scabbard with her backhand.
Scarlet Yan barely pulled out a smile, nodded, and said hesitantly, "Wei Chimu, how is he?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wood and Fire were silent, not knowing how to respond.
"Can I go see him?" Scarlet Yan looked at Wei Chimu not far away, and felt very uncomfortable. I couldn't help but want to take a step towards him, however, the next second, my wrist was grabbed.
"Why did the princess go to see him again?" Huo Cai opened his mouth as if complaining, "Lord Wang...... The reason why it has become the way it is now is ...... Isn't it all your fault? ”
One word made Scarlet Yan stunned because of this, and his clear eyes suddenly froze, like a wooden man, Huo was right, Wei Chimu would lie on the bed so dejectedly, isn't it all because of himself?
"What about me?" Scarlet Yan opened his mouth in a low voice, lowered his eyes, and the light in his eyes became annoyed, "When he beat my child with his own hands, Ning You almost tortured me to death, at that time, why didn't you say that Yu Chimu hurt me?" ”
When Fire and Wood heard this, they knew in their hearts how much courage it took for Scarlet Smoke to lift these past events and scars, so they were also silent.
However, everything at the beginning was just a misunderstanding, and the victim not only had Wei Chimu, but also Scarlet Smoke.
"The prince didn't expect you to leave Southern Xinjiang so violently, and he has been looking for you since then." Wood took a deep breath, it was time to solve all the mysteries.
Scarlet snorted coldly and asked rhetorically, "I was tortured like that, shouldn't I leave and continue to stay in Southern Xinjiang and wait for death?" ”
"The prince never knew about these things that you were tortured by Ning You!" Huo was excited, "What Ning You did that woman, the prince didn't know a bit!" ”
This sentence was like a sharp blade stabbed in Scarlet Yan's heart impartially, wasn't it Wei Chimu's order, and Ning You himself made his own decisions because of resentment?
So for so long, has she actually been hating the wrong person?
"It can't be!" Scarlet Yan retorted, looked at Mu, and shouted in a verifying manner, "How could Yu Chimu not know!" Where did Ning You have the audacity to assert himself? ”
But Mu just nodded heavily in the end, "Huo is right, Ning You did these things, the prince didn't know at all, if the prince knew, he would definitely not let Ning You go on the spot!" ”
Scarlet closed her eyes tightly, as if she still couldn't accept the sudden change, and suddenly remembered the bowl of black abortion pills that day, the self who pleaded desperately with her that day, and her own mottled bloodstains later.
"Even though it wasn't Wei Chimu who assigned Ning You, but ......" Scarlet Yan's eyes were gloomy, and his expression was unwavering, "That bowl of abortion pills was fed to me by himself, there can't be anything wrong with this, right?" is obviously his own child, but he has made such a ruthless move, how can you let me forgive? ”
That's right, what she really couldn't let go of in her heart was not what Ning You did to her later, but the ruthlessness of the cold moon that Yu Chimu was at that time!
"Everyone says that the bystanders are clear, the authorities are confused, and you are just blinded by hatred." Mu said uneasily, "With you, how can you not know why the prince always insists on killing that fetus?" ”
Mu didn't have a trace of respite, and continued, "At the beginning, when you were taken to Southern Xinjiang for the first time, Mu Jiu had already poisoned your body, and that kind of poison, once it entered the human body, even if you used up the elixir under the sky, it would not be able to solve it. ”
