A house in the mountains, built of stone and bricks, tall and tough.

On the wooden couch in the stone house, Zhao Chen's face was as pale as paper, his lips were gray, and he was lying there lifeless.

A military doctor checked his pulse, and after a long time, he slowly shook his head and said, "Life is ruined, if you want to save it, it's difficult."

The two black-clothed men standing next to him were both tall and had ghost faces to cover their faces.

One of the ghost faces took out a porcelain bottle from his body, poured out a pill from it, and was about to give it to Zhao Chen.

The other person stretched out his hand to block him, "Uncle Seventh Emperor, there are three pills in total, and the Imperial Aunt gave you a life-saving purpose. You already gave one pill to the imperial brother yesterday, is it possible, are you going to use it for him?"

Zhao Chengyuan pushed Zhao Yin's hand away, put the pill into Zhao Chen's mouth, and fed water to wash the pill down.

After he did this, he straightened up and turned to Zhao Yin, "In public and private, this king will save him. This king does not like to owe favors."

What the prince did for Youning, he came to pay it back, so the two would not owe each other.

said that it was for public and private, but the prince came to the northwest to work hard, I'm afraid it was more for personal feelings. Before leaving Beijing, the crown prince asked him, "Uncle Seven Emperors dare to take the world for the sake of the imperial aunt?"

At the time, he didn't understand what it meant.

Now it seems that I am afraid that it refers to the matter of harmony. For the sake of Youning, he abandoned the lives of the soldiers in the northwest and the people of the world, and fought to the death.

In his previous life, the crown prince did the same. Therefore, after the peace negotiation, Da Zhou and Xiliang experienced a protracted war, with countless casualties.

It's just that Youning is trapped in the small courtyard and doesn't know anything.

At this time, if the prince is dead, if You Ning knows the truth, I am afraid that he will never forget him.

Zhao Yin was puzzled, "Since Uncle Huang recognizes Brother Huang, why do you have to hide it so hard, if your identity is made public, wouldn't it be much more convenient to act?"

Zhao Chengyuan looked at the crown prince on the bed and said lightly, "This king's approval of him does not mean that this king trusts him. It's hard to be thoughtful. The prince has tens of thousands of private soldiers, and you know very well what it means if it leaks out."

The crown prince is the future emperor, and he has such a heavy affection for Youning, who knows if he will fall into the ground?

Zhao Yin smiled, "But the Seventh Emperor Uncle revealed his identity in front of his nephew. Uncle Huang is not afraid that his nephew will be bad for you?"

Zhao Chengyuan paced out of the stone house, standing in the courtyard and looking at the barren mountain in front of the stone house, "This king wants you to work hard, so naturally you have to show equal sincerity. You pretended to be a holy decree tiger talisman to transfer troops from the Dingbei Army, once the incident happened, it would be a capital crime. This king has exposed his weakness to you, and you regret it one day and want to save yourself, so you can confess this king."

The nearest garrison of the Dingbei Army was seven or eight hundred miles away from the border city, and it only took three days for them to come to their aid.

Zhao Yin has a very high prestige in the Dingbei Army, and only when he moves troops with a tiger talisman will the officers and men in the army be convinced and send troops so happily.

Zhao Yinken took the risk of responding to this matter, which was a righteous move.

Zhao Yin's eyes were open, "My nephew should have been dead, but now he has lived for many more months, so it's not a pity. And I'm a general, so I can die a well-deserved death."

Zhao Chengyuan looked at him, but he didn't know why such a downright person would do such a despicable thing in his previous life and completely push You Ning into the abyss.

If he hadn't made a hindrance from it, according to Zhao Chen's affection for Youning, Youning's previous life would not have been so miserable. I can't say it, the rest of her life is quite peaceful.

When Zhao Chengyuan thought of this, his heart was dull.

He said lightly, "It's good that you think so. It shall be atonement."

Zhao Yin was puzzled, "Atonement? I don't understand what Uncle Huang said."

This is similar to what the prince said, he was guilty and committed a heinous sin without knowing it.

Zhao Chengyuan said, "You just need to know this. After all, you have incurred a debt and killed people."

Zhao Yin looked at Zhao Chengyuan for a moment, and he could sense that the Seventh Emperor Uncle had been quite displeased with him recently. That's probably why.

Since Uncle Seven Emperor said the same, he must have really done something.

He said in a deep voice, "Okay, just be a nephew

Atonement."

Hengzhi should do this, and he didn't think about living.

Zhao Chengyuan said, "You go back to Yuming Mansion. Next, with the soldiers and horses of the Southwest Army and the Liangchuan battalion joining, the Xiliang Army has nothing to fear."

Zhao Yin arched his hand and said, "Uncle Huang take care. My nephew is leaving."

After saying that, he strode away.

When he walked to the gate of the courtyard, he heard Zhao Chengyuan's voice behind him, "Do what this king says, you won't die so easily."

Zhao Yin paused and walked out of the courtyard.

The military doctor gave Zhao Chen acupuncture and medicine, and three days later, the person still did not wake up, and he also launched a high fever.

Zhao Chengyuan took out the last pill from the porcelain bottle and fed it to Zhao Chen's mouth.

He stood in front of the bed and said softly, "This is the last pill, if you don't wake up, there is nothing I can do." Now that the Xiliang army has not retreated, and the trouble in the northwest has not been eliminated, if you die, there will be no one to defend Qingyun Pass."

Zhao Chen's cheeks on the bed were sunken, flushed from high heat, and his lips were dry. Still unresponsive.

Zhao Chengyuan sighed secretly, you can't die.

This king saved you not only because of Youning.

Realizing his sudden soft-heartedness, Zhao Chengyuan frowned, raised his feet and walked out.

Before the man left the house, he heard a weak inquiry behind him, "Border city, can you hold it?"

Zhao Chengyuan turned around.

Zhao Chen, who was on the bed, opened his eyes, his body tried to lean sideways, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out, as if he was enduring great pain.

His eyes were eager, his expression was anxious, and his hoarse voice struggled to speak, "Qingyun Pass, can you hold it?"

Zhao Chengyuan's voice was hoarse and low, "Hold on."

Zhao Chen's expression was relieved, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and his body slowly lay back.

His eyes sparkled, "That's good, that's good."

Zhao Chengyuan didn't know if Zhao Chen's "That's good" was glad that Qingyun Pass was guarded, or whether he was glad that Youning was safe.

He paced back to the bed and looked at him condescendingly, "Rushing into the enemy line alone, the prince was reckless and almost lost his life."

Zhao Chen smiled weakly.

How could it be in vain, King Xiliang died, and Youning could be truly peaceful.

If he doesn't try, how do he know that he can't kill King Xiliang.

He looked at the ghostly man in front of the bed, "Who are you?"

Zhao Chengyuan said lightly, "Ghost-faced General. Don't you know the prince?"

Zhao Chen asked, "Who is the Ghost Face General?"

Zhao Chengyuan said, "The ghost face general is the ghost face general."

Zhao Chen squinted his eyes hard, staring at the ghost-faced general in front of him, trying to see some familiar shadow from him.

"Lone should know you, right? There are not many powerful generals in Da Zhou. Who is it that will help Lonely so much?"

Zhao Chengyuan said, "I'm helping Da Zhou."

Zhao Chen didn't ask any more questions, looked at him and said sincerely, "Thank you for guarding Qingyun Pass."

"I said it, I helped Da Zhou, so why do you need to thank you."
