Chapter 64: Defeat
"Yes, Qian Xu is back... was also seriously injured, and the 100,000 elite soldiers sent by the emperor to Zhongli were all wiped out! The crown prince, as the initiator of advocating the borrowing of soldiers, is probably still on trial in the court at this time. Lee's words rang in my ears.
"General Qian is seriously injured, 100,000 elite soldiers are gone, Zhongli..." I shuddered and muttered to myself.
Li Shi reached out and patted the back of my clenched hand with an expressionless face, but a hint of different color gradually rose in his eyes, as if he was proud...
And I didn't have time to pay attention to her, just pushed away the palace people gathered behind me, and stumbled towards the court.
But which direction is the court? I don't know.
In this palace with green tiles and vermilion eaves, I could only run around like a headless fly, but when I passed through a palace gate, a female palace man took a picture of me.
"This sister," I nervously put my arm on her shoulder, "where is the court?" ”
The palace people were frightened by my appearance, and quickly screamed, looking at me in horror.
"Speak, speak. Where is the court? Where is the court? Seeing that she didn't speak, I shook her body in a bit of anger.
The little palace maid turned pale with fright, and simply knelt on the ground.
"Su'er?" At this moment, a familiar and deep voice came from behind him.
I turned my head and suddenly saw Yin Linxi, who had a heavy face, standing behind me, still holding a small bright yellow book in his hand.
"Yin Linxi, Yin Linxi!"
I seemed to have found a little hope in the fog, and stepped forward in three steps and two steps to grab his clothes, "The queen said that General Qian Xu is back, right?" ”
"Su'er..."Yin Linxi's eyes were filled with pity, and he took my hand, "Don't mention this first, I'll take you back to the house." ”
"No!" I shook off his hand angrily, "You tell me, Qian Xu was seriously injured, and the death of Xianyu's 100,000 army was death, are these true?" ”
The light in Yin Linxi's eyes gradually dimmed, and he didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.
"What about Zhongli? What about my father? How are they? Tell me, what's going on with them! "At this moment I only felt a raging fire burning my chest, making my desperate state of mind like a tight string, as if it were about to break in the flames.
Yin Linxi suddenly turned around, turned his back to me, and said in a deep voice, "Qian Xu led 100,000 elite soldiers to relieve the siege of several cities in Zhongli, but no one expected that he would kill a Chu State halfway, and he would kill the 100,000 army led by Qian Xu without leaving a piece of armor. ”
I stared blankly at the somewhat desolate back in the cold wind, tears no longer knew when they slipped down my cheeks and into my mouth, and the salty taste made my heart ache.
"What about my father?"
Yin Linxi was still silent with his back to me.
I stepped forward and grabbed his cold fingers, looked at him pleadingly, and said, "My father is fine, right?" He's fine, isn't he? ”
"The state of Chu sent troops this time like a bamboo, and the spearhead is approaching the Zhongli Imperial City..."
A sense of foreboding in my heart became more and more apparent.
Then Yin Linxi lowered his eyes to look at me, and his beautiful face was filled with many complex emotions.
"According to the news brought back by Qian Xu, after Chu Junxun occupied the imperial city, Zhongli Guojun was captured by the king of Chu and imprisoned in Zhongli's palace."
"What?" My head "buzzed", and I finally couldn't control it anymore and fell to the ground.
The imperial city was occupied, and the father was captured, what is this talking about? This is clearly announcing to me that Zhongli is gone... It's dead!
And it was not the Wu State that I hated to the bone that destroyed Zhongli, but the Chu State that appeared like a ghost and quickly caused me Zhongli to disappear?
I haven't even had time to avenge the prince's brother's vengeance, and the kingdom that gave birth to me and raised me has suddenly disappeared, and even my father and emperor have been imprisoned by the enemies of the country and the palace that I was familiar with in the past? This is how I can believe!
"Su'er." Yin Linxi stretched out his hand to help me, his eyes full of distress.
"Go away!" I looked at him in disbelief, and my hands pushed away the hands that were approaching me like an electric shock, and I stepped back a little tremblingly.
A great grief over the loss of my home and a hatred that was about to drown me rushed back and forth in my body, making the top of my head dizzy and my chest breathless as if it were pressing against a great invisible mountain.
I could only breathe in exaggerated breaths with my mouth, and my fingers grabbed the hem of my clothes and head.
The pain was like an overwhelming thunderstorm in the apocalypse, swept in menacingly, and quickly engulfed me in endless darkness.
"No, no, no, you lied to me, you must have lied to me!" I shook my head in self-deception, kicked my legs back in horror, and my eyes were dry as if a knife was cutting back and forth in my sockets.
"You're tired now, come home with me." Yin Linxi's complicated face stretched out his hand to me again.
I screamed like mad and cried and pushed him away.
"You lie to me, you are not Yin Linxi, Yin Linxi will not say such cruel things to me, who are you!"
"Enough!" Yin Linxi roared, grabbed my arm without saying anything, looked at me with red eyes, and said, "I know you can't accept this now, but you have to cheer up at this time, don't forget, your father is still imprisoned in Zhongli Palace at the moment!" ”
"Father..."I muttered, raised my hand to wipe my tears, and quickly got up and said, "Yes, Father... I want to go back to Zhongli, and I have to save my father! ”
After that, I was about to break free from Yin Linxi's confinement, but his arms were like shackles firmly attached to me, and I couldn't move at all.
"I'm begging you, okay, let me go!" I pleaded with him in a low voice.
But Yin Linxi just took me into his arms with a distressed face.
"Don't do that!" He whispered in my ear, his deep voice trembling and choking, "You're too uncalm now, I'll take you home first." ”
"No!" I pushed him as hard as I could, but the figure that held me didn't waver in the slightest.
"You let go of me, let go of me..."
"I won't let you go, not in this life!" Yin Linxi's voice was very firm.
"Please."
For a moment, my mournful voice suddenly drowned out when my lips and teeth touched his left shoulder, but Yin Linxi didn't make a sound.
Let me bite mercilessly, but he still did not let go of his hands in my arms.
Until a fishy sweetness appeared in my mouth, and something flowed quietly down the corners of my mouth.
"Yin Linxi, I hate you!"
