By the time Shen Yuexi came out of confinement, the autumn in northern Xinjiang was already obvious.

This month, Shen Yuexi sat unsteadily, and changed the camping place with the army.

Although there was a Xiao Zhen in Southern Xia, and the pace of Northern Hu encroaching on Southern Xia slowed down, it still did not stop.

The tactic that Hu Zhuo has been discussing with the lieutenants is to capture Xiao Zhen.

Mugodo tried twice, but was unsuccessful. Hu Zhuo is ready to go to the battlefield in person, and Xiao Zhen will be there for a while.

In that battle, Hu Zhuo didn't tell Shen Yuexi, for fear that she would worry.

But Shen Yuexi heard about it from the mouth of an adjutant general.

"You have to be careful when you go to war tomorrow, there are losses and wins in battles, but there is only one life, if you can fight, you will fight, and if you can't fight, you will retreat, you know?" At night, Shen Yuexi leaned into Kuchui's arms and whispered to him.

Suddenly he couldn't help laughing, and then snorted, "I didn't tell you if I was afraid that you were worried, how did you know?" ”

"I'm worried that you don't start now, from the day I knew you, I knew that you were a man who walked among swords."

Suddenly, when he heard this, he felt guilty, and hugged Shen Yuexi tightly, "I have always promised you to live a peaceful life with you, but I have never been able to fulfill it, I really can't help you." ”

"You didn't stand up to me, in the end, you have come to this point, all for me, I understand."

If it weren't for the fact that Hu Zhuo imprisoned the King of Beihu for Shen Yuexi, if it wasn't for Shen Yuexi who killed the King of Beihu while he was imprisoned, Hu Zhuo would not be the king of Beihu now.

Anyway, there is no going back, doomed.

"Then I promise you, no matter when, I will retreat from the battlefield." Suddenly whispered softly in Shen Yuexi's ear.

"Okay." Shen Yuexi responded softly.

Then the two snuggled together and never said anything more.

The next day, Hu Zhuo led an army of 30,000 to set off, and after Shen Yuexi saw the army go away, he returned to the big tent and coaxed Zhicui to destroy the summer together.

Xia Xia is still too young, most of the time sleeping, waking up to eat milk for a while, and then falling asleep after feeding.

He is almost the same as Yi'er when he was first born, he doesn't make much trouble, and he is very easy to raise.

"You say, Yi'er can walk now." Looking at the sleeping Xia Xia, Shen Yuexi asked Zhicui.

Zhicui put down the needlework in her hand and thought for a while, "It should be." ”

"You say, will Qiu'er treat him well?" Shen Yuexi asked again.

Zhicui thought about it again, "Yes, our Yi'er is so cute, who would bear to treat him badly." ”

Shen Yuexi smiled bitterly and stopped talking. I felt a little relieved.

At noon, the army did not return, but heard a few trumpets in the distance.

This sound is generally used to remind the army to pay attention to the enemy's situation, and on the battlefield, it is a signal to charge.

This voice made Shen Yuexi's heart often tugg, and she couldn't come back, and she couldn't let go of the heart she was holding.

Zhicui's heart was also raised, because this time, Jianshan followed Hu Zhuo to fight.

She looked at the cute appearance of Xia Xia when she fell asleep, and thought to herself, if only she could have a child of her own. It's a pity that she is blessed, and the man she likes can't marry her, I'm afraid that she won't have children in her life.

During lunch, Shen Yuexi asked the soldiers who delivered the meal: "Hasn't the army come back yet?" ”

The soldier shook his head.

After Shen Yuexi and Zhicui had lunch, they left the big tent and walked to a relatively high open space, but when they looked around, there was a wilderness scene, and they could not see the battlefield or the shadow of the army.

Shen Yuexi's heart twitched even more.

But she had no other way but to wait.

Back in the big tent, Shen Yuexi said to Zhicui: "It would be good if I also knew how to do martial arts, and I could fight side by side with the king." ”

Zhicui smiled, "Don't worry, they'll be fine." ”

Zhicui really understands her. Shen Yuexi also smiled at Zhicui and stopped talking.

The army did not come back until Shen Shi, and Shen Yuexi heard the horn of returning to the camp, rushed out of the big tent, and waited outside the barracks early.

It wasn't until the clumsy figure came into view that Shen Yuexi's crumbling heart relaxed.

But when she got closer, the military uniform and blood stains on her body that were cut by the knife made Shen Yuexi worry again, she ran forward, looked up at Hu Zhuo, and asked with her eyes: Are you okay?

Suddenly he jumped off the horse with a clumsy smile, and he had a strip of cloth tied around his arm, and blood seeped out of the strip, which looked a little frightening.

"A little injury, it's not in the way," Woo Clumsy didn't care about his injury, "Guess what the result is today?" ”

How is it? Shen Yuexi looked clumsy.

Suddenly, he looked into the army returning to the camp, and after a while, several soldiers carried Xiao Zhen, who was tied up by five flowers, and walked over.

When he saw the clumsiness, Xiao Zhen glared at him fiercely, his eyes were full of murderous energy.

With a wave of his hand, the soldiers carried Xiao Zhen into the barracks.

Shen Yuexi looked at it for a while and retracted his gaze, "This is the brave deputy general of Nanxia?" ”

Suddenly, he nodded, "It's really brave." ”

Shen Yuexi couldn't help laughing, "So what?" It's not like you've been captured. ”

Suddenly, when he heard this, it was like a child being praised, and he laughed loudly, "It's been a long time since I've been so happy." ”

"Go back to the big tent, I'll help you bandage your wounds." Seeing that he was completely careless about his wounds, Shen Yuexi couldn't help but remind.

Only then did he look at his arm, although he did not hurt the bones, but the wound was very deep, and at this moment, blood was still pouring out, dyeing the bandaged strip of cloth red.

When he returned to the big tent and suddenly took off his military uniform, Shen Yuexi saw clearly that he not only had a deep wound on his arm, but also had several wounds on his leg, Shen Yuexi helped him clean his wound with water, and sighed distressedly: "You don't know the pain?" ”

Of course, it's not that it doesn't hurt, but after it hurts too much, it's a little numb.

Suddenly watched Shen Yuexi help him clean the wound, apply medicine to the wound, and carefully bandage the wound, and said with a smile: "It still hurts a little, but I really don't feel pain when you pack it like this." ”

Shen Yuexi heard this and glanced at her with disgust.

"Nanxia has lost such a fierce general, it should be a big demoralization." After bandaging the wound, Shen Yuexi asked clumsyly.

"That's nature."

"What are you going to do with Xiao Zhen?"

"Persuade me to surrender."

Shen Yuexi was stunned, and then shook his head, "How brave and heartfelt, I'm afraid this matter is not easy." ”

"I also know it's not easy, but he's a rare general, and he's reluctant to kill." Suddenly said in a deep voice.

Shen Yuexi stopped talking, and after changing his clothes, he left the big tent, and he had to go to the post-war summary meeting.

After leaving suddenly, Zhicui came in with Xia Xia in his arms, "Did you just see Jianshan?" ”

Shen Yuexi nodded, "He's fine, don't worry." ”

Zhicui smiled at this time, "I've been thinking about it." ”

Shen Yuexi also smiled, cleaned up the tattered military uniform that she had just taken off, and then hugged Xia Xuan, and said to Zhicui: "Go, I don't know if Jianshan is injured." ”

Zhicui glanced at Shen Yuexi gratefully and hurriedly went.

**

Shen Yuexi's guess was not wrong, Xiao Zhen swore not to surrender and resisted with a hunger strike.

Suddenly returned to the big tent and talked to Shen Yuexi about it, and his tone was a little regretful. Clumsiness is really a cherishing talent.

"For this kind of loyal and brave man, integrity is the most important thing, and the moment you defeat him, he will treat himself as if he is dead." Shen Yuexi said.

"Is there really no way? You Han people often say that ants still steal life, let alone people? ”

"It is precisely because we are human beings and have our own beliefs and hearts that we know what to do better than ants."

"There are always people and things in this world that make him nostalgic." Suddenly, he said.

Shen Yuexi thought for a while, "Perhaps, I'll go see him?" ”

Suddenly looked at Shen Yuexi, "Do you have a way to persuade him?" ”

"Just talk to him, I don't know what will happen." Shen Yuexi said.

Hu clumsily sighed, "Anyway, it's already like this, no matter how bad it is, it won't hurt much, but when you go, stay away from the iron cage where he is imprisoned, so as not to be hurt by him." ”

Shen Yuexi nodded.

The next day, at lunchtime, Shen Yuexi personally sent it to Xiao Zhen.

Xiao Zhen was imprisoned in a big iron cage, sitting cross-legged, a little surprised when he saw Shen Yuexi, but quickly looked away.

Shen Yuexi put the lunch box outside the iron cage, looked at Xiao Zhen for a while, and then said, "You must know who I am, right?" ”

A contemptuous smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Zhen's mouth, but he did not speak.

He naturally knew Shen Yuexi, but in his eyes, Shen Yuexi was a shameful person who was a traitor, and he disdained to talk to her.

Seeing Xiao Zhen's contemptuous smile, Shen Yuexi also smiled, "In your eyes, I must be a person without integrity, right?" ”

Xiao Zhen closed his eyes, revealing a look of extreme impatience with Shen Yuexi's words.

"When I was eight years old, I was sent to the frontier with my father, and the people said that my father was a great sin and greedy for a lot of people's fat and people's ointment, but how did they know that my father was just a victim of the struggle for the throne in Southern Xia at that time? I grew up in the frontier, which borders Beihu, the people are fierce, our Shen family was bullied and oppressed a lot when they first came, this situation has been improved after several years, but later I met Hu, although he is from Beihu, but he is proud and open, he helped our Shen family through a lot of difficulties......"

"So, your family went to Beihu?" When Xiao Zhen heard this, he opened his eyes and said with obvious mockery in his tone.

"You say, what do people live for?" Shen Yuexi ignored Xiao Zhen's attitude and continued to ask.

"Naturally, it is loyalty, courage and filial piety." Xiao Zhen snorted coldly and said.

Shen Yuexi nodded, "You are really a person worthy of a great responsibility, but a woman like me only knows that living is just to find a place to live, my father used to be the head of the household in Southern Xia, he is naturally more knowledgeable than me, he chose to go to Beihu at the beginning, the reason is very simple, he wants to let the people of our Shen family live a better life." ”
