Chapter 41: The Border Crisis

By the time Mu Zhiyu opened the door of Ling Feng's room, he had already woken up and was struggling to get out of bed, "Ling Feng, your body is very weak, don't move." ”

walked up to him and took his pulse, "You fainted because you were tired all the way, as long as you take a little rest, you will be fine soon." ”

Then he walked to the table and quickly wrote a prescription and handed it to the housekeeper, "Butler, you follow my prescription to grab the medicine, come back and fry it for Ling Feng to take." ”

Ling Feng leaned weakly on the bed and slowly spoke, "Princess, please forgive Ling Feng for going back to the city without permission, but there is no other way than to find you..."

"You're doing a great job. How is the prince? Did he contract the plague? "When I sat in front of him, the first thing I did was to ask Murong Lingche about his safety.

"Before I came, the prince was not infected, but he was exhausted because he was worried about the safety of the soldiers and the epidemic at the border. The plague came too suddenly, too strangely, and the military doctors could only temporarily stabilize the condition of the soldiers no longer aggravated, but could not be fundamentally eliminated, and soldiers were still infected every day... And Ling Xuan and I have advised the prince, your medical skills are very profound, maybe you can completely eradicate the plague, but the prince does not agree to let you take the risk, for the safety of the prince and the 300,000 soldiers of the Ziling Kingdom, Ling Feng can only risk death to come back and ask you to go to the border pass..."

Knowing that Murong Ling Che was still safe for the time being, his heart was no longer so nervous and flustered, "Ling Feng, I'll leave immediately, and you can cultivate in the palace with peace of mind." ”

"No, Princess, I'm fine, I'll go with you. I have disobeyed the prince's order, and no matter how the prince punishes me when I go back, I have no complaints, but I must be by your side to protect your safety. Hearing what she said, I was anxious and immediately wanted to get out of bed.

Seeing his appearance, Mu Zhiyu hurriedly helped him, "Since you want to go with me, now you can rest well in bed, and after drinking the medicine for a while, your body will almost recover." ”

"Thank you, Princess."

"You can't go!" Shui Mo Xuan walked in from outside the door, followed by an innocent-looking magpie.

Glanced at him lightly, "Didn't you stay in the front hall?" ”

"Miss, he has to come, I can't stop him..."

"Magpie, you are here to take care of Ling Feng. Ink Xuan, come out with me. ”

Shui Moxuan followed Mu Zhiyu to the courtyard, stopped, and shouted at her back, "Mu Zhiyu, do you know that it will be very dangerous for you to go." ”

"Of course I do. But I have to go, there is my husband there, and there are 300,000 innocent soldiers waiting for me to save them. ”

"What if you go and it doesn't help at all? Do I have to take your life? Shui Mo Xuan walked quickly in front of her, and his tone became heavier.

"Anyway, I have to go. Even if I die, I will die with him. The tone was resolute, and the eyes that looked at him were full of determination.

Shui Mo Xuan looked at her face and froze in place, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, she was silent for a while, and suddenly smiled desolately, "What a life and death together." In that case, I'll go with you. Stop smiling, there was no expression on her handsome face, but her eyes were as firm as she had just been.

Looking up at his face, there was no smile in the past, although there was no expression, but why did he seem to see a trace of loneliness through his eyes? If you look closely, you can no longer see any of his feelings, is it your own delusion? No matter what, you can't implicate him, "No need, as you said, this time it will be dangerous, and I don't want you to have any accidents because of me." ”

"What I decided will not change."

"If you treat me as a friend, don't take it to heart what I saved you that day, I don't need any reward from you."

"It's because we're friends that I can't watch you go to such a dangerous place alone. Needless to say, you can't persuade me. "Since you care about him so much, then I can only help you to keep him safe.

……

The border between the Purple Feather Kingdom and the Jing Ge Kingdom.

There are a few soldiers standing in front of each tent in the barracks, and there are soldiers patrolling everywhere, although the isolated tents are full of soldiers infected with the plague, and the military doctors are anxious, but the military spirit has never wavered, they are still training as always, and they have strengthened the vigilance in the barracks.

Murong Lingche was standing in the camp tent at this time, listening to the words of the military doctors who could not completely eradicate the plague, and still did not find the source of the plague, he collected his robe, turned around and propped his hands on the table, hammered it fiercely, blood flowed down the back of his hand, and secretly scolded himself for being so incompetent, and he couldn't even protect his own soldiers...

Several military doctors immediately knelt on the ground when they saw it, "It's all our incompetence, please take care of your health..."

"Lord Wang, General Xiao has replied, and the same epidemic has appeared on the border between Ziling and Cangyun Country..."Ling Xuan walked in from outside the camp tent with a letterhead, but he never thought to see such a scene, he was shocked, and hurriedly brought the medicine box, wanting to bandage Murong Ling Che.

However, Murong Lingche shook off his hand, his expression was indifferent, and his words were cold, "Military doctor, this king has limited you to refining the medicine that can cure the plague within one day, and this king will personally test the medicine." "There is also an epidemic on Yu's side, and it can't be delayed any longer, even if the sky is going to kill him Murong Lingche, he has to pull his soldiers back from the ghost gate.

"Lord Wang, by all means..."Everyone present knelt on the ground, hoping that he would retract what he had just said.

"Didn't you hear what the king said?" The eyebrows tightened, and he shouted loudly, which made the military doctors shudder, and stood up tremblingly and walked out of the camp to refine medicine.

In the evening, Murong Lingche personally went to the quarantine area to share the hardships with those infected soldiers, and constantly encouraged them, "This king promises you that you will definitely be allowed to survive this catastrophe safely, in this extraordinary period, all of us need to cheer up, no matter how great the difficulty, we cannot be defeated..."

The faces of the soldiers were filled with strong smiles, even their prince did this, how could they easily accept defeat......

At this time, there was a sound of fighting outside, the torches that fell to the ground ignited the wooden stakes, and even some tents were burning, and the lights were bright for a while, Murong Lingche hurriedly rushed out, and found that a large number of black-clothed people appeared outside, who were engaged in a fierce battle with his dark guard camp, and the sound of swords colliding was loud and thorough, emitting a dazzling light at night.

Looking at their skills, they seem to have received professional and rigorous training, and each exudes a murderous aura, which also confirms Murong Lingche's guess that this plague was deliberately spread by someone, and they took advantage of the opportunity to enter when they were at their weakest, with the aim of killing them all, presumably this is a deliberate conspiracy for a long time, but it is too underestimated Murong Lingche......

After a tragic battle, although there were casualties, but the losses were not heavy, because of the 1,000 elites of Murong Lingche's secret guard camp, his 300,000 troops were not injured in any way, and those black-clothed people suffered heavy casualties, except for a few people who escaped, there was no survivor left.

Suddenly remembered that Xiao Luoyu's side was very likely to be in danger as well, "Ling Xuan, tell Ling Feng and ask him to take half of the dark guards of the dark guard camp and immediately go to General Xiao's camp to provide support." ”

Hearing this, Ling Xuan stepped forward and knelt on the ground, "Lord Wang, Ling Feng, he has returned to the Imperial City..."

"What did you say?" His face sank, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, but his eyes were cold, "You don't have to obey this king's order, do you?" The eyebrows were cold, and a cold light shot at everyone present like a sharp arrow, and suddenly everyone fell to their knees.

Cangyun Imperial Palace.

The man in the purple embroidered robe hurried to the imperial study, and wherever he walked, he took away a gust of wind, which made the robe swing around, giving people a feeling of being ethereal and dusty, and his jade-like handsome face was slightly angry, and he glared fiercely at the little eunuch guarding outside the imperial study, and roared, "Get out of the way!" ”

The little eunuch trembled with fright, but still said intermittently, "Lord Wang, the emperor ordered that no one should go in and disturb..."

Ignoring the words of the little eunuch, he directly crossed him and pushed open the door of the imperial study, and strode in.

Chu Muxi, who was sitting in front of the dragon case, raised his eyes and glanced at the baby brother who walked in angrily, closed his hand, and said softly, "What's the matter, who provoked our His Royal Highness King Chen." ”

"Brother Huang, there is a large-scale epidemic on the border of Ziling Country, Xiao Luoyu, who is guarding the border pass, sent an envoy to my country to ask for support, why did you detain the envoy and pretend that you never knew about it?"

"This matter is my brother's own opinion, you don't have to worry about it."

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a plague that has been deliberately spread. Brother Huang, now that the situation in the world is so tense, if the Ziling Kingdom dies, I'm afraid that the next one will be our Cangyun Kingdom's turn, I know that you have the ambition to unify the Thousand Lives Continent, and you want to take this opportunity to suppress Murong Lingche, but you also have to think about the safety of your country..."

"Could it be that according to your words, our Cangyun Kingdom still has to rely on him Ziling Country? Since I have made this decision, I am confident that I will guarantee the safety of my country, and you don't need to say more, I will not give up this great opportunity..."

Chu Muchen knew that it was useless to say more, so he sighed helplessly, turned around and walked out.

In the imperial study of the Ziling Palace, after Murong Jinglan read Shui Mo Xuan's letter, he ordered the eunuch Xuan Cheng on the side to come to the audience.

Soon, Prime Minister Yan Su rushed over, saluted and spoke, "Is there anything important that the emperor is in such a hurry to summon his ministers to come?" ”

"Uncle, the prince of the Water Kingdom has sent a letter saying that they agreed to the previous deal, and Shui Mo Xuan has now gone to Murong Lingche's military camp, wanting to take advantage of the plague to find an opportunity to attack." There was a slight hesitation in his eyebrows as he spoke.

"Your Majesty, this is a good thing, why are you worried?"

"I'm just worried that if something happens to Murong Lingche, will the 300,000 troops at the border pass be wiped out, after all, they are the soldiers of my Purple Ling Country, how can I ignore their safety..."

"The emperor is so worried. Later, the minister sent secret guards over to protect the safety of the 300,000 soldiers..."

"So, very well..."
