In the past, Bai Qige always felt that this body was too weak to bear the strength and skills she should have. Since following Yi Chenjing in the Northern Expedition, she has gradually discovered that perhaps bloodline can really be inherited, as well as the flexibility and recovery speed of this body.
Astonishingly strong, at least her original body didn't have this advantage.
Yi Chenjing tortured her for a long time when she was married into the distant country. After that, she suffered from colds and miscarriages. However, her seemingly vulnerable body survived without leaving any sequelae. Bai Qige was most delighted.
What's more, when she was practicing martial arts with Zhan Ting and Yi Chenjing, she could clearly feel that her body seemed to be made for martial arts. She could twist and bend without any problems, and it was very flexible.
The bloodline of generals is probably like this.
Because of his status as a descendant of the Bai family, everyone had no doubts about Bai Qige's sudden bravery and extraordinary strategy. They were a little surprised. After getting used to it, they took it for granted - the Bai family has been fighting for generations.
The two sisters are both women and men, so how could Bai Qige be any worse? She just indulged in her children's personal relationship and never showed her brave side.
After that, Yi Chenjing no longer tried every means to prevent her from joining the battlefield. Although she was still a little reluctant, she could not overcome Bai Qige's paranoid temper. To be on the safe side, she could only try to reduce the number of times she went out in person. However, there were more soldiers and fewer generals.
After Tai and Qitao were lost one after another, Yi Chenjing was forced to participate in the war again and again. The difference was that he had a heroic wife by his side. The third lady of the Bai family, who was constantly praised and admired by the soldiers of Dayao, even turned her original private
The names passed down from below were shouted out openly.
War concubine.
He is tall and thin in white clothes and iron armor, and dances with a bright silver gun like a god of war sweeping across. Wherever he passes, the enemy is invincible - of course, this is just a rumor.
After all, this was the first time she was exposed to a blade duel with cold weapons. Bai Qige was not used to fighting fiercely with overturned palms. Although using the sword was not a problem, she was always criticized by Yi Chenjing. Fortunately, he was by her side, otherwise she would have been afraid.
Now everything has been poked into a sieve.
"I'll let you come up with some bad ideas, but if you do, I'll have to protect you." Looking at Bai Qige who dismounted in embarrassment, Yi Chenjing flicked her finger on her smooth forehead with half distressed and half complaining, "
Don't you rush so fiercely? Do you really think you are invulnerable? The essence of the Bai family has not been passed on to you, but it has passed down the drive to die. If you continue to be so reckless, next time
I won’t take you there even if I say nothing.”
"If you don't take me with you, who will give you bad ideas? You're as stupid as a fool and you know how to memorize the art of war." Bai Qige retorted, leaving Yi Chenjing speechless.
It must be admitted that Bai Qige has extraordinary tactical thinking, which is extremely rare and very effective on a regular battlefield. For example, during the raid on the Iron Swallow Formation, no one expected that she would use iron tools to conduct heat.
This caused chaos in the main formation of Huoluohe, and there was also a deceptive net of pepper grass. Later, Yi Chenjing tried to smell it and sneezed loudly. It can be imagined that he was covered with pepper grass juice at that time.
How miserable and miserable the enemy is.
Ingenious "bad ideas" can often achieve miraculous results on the battlefield. After Wu Siying was removed from his military post and replaced as head coach, the Yaojun army relied on the near-perfect command of Yi Chenjing, Xiao Baishan and others, as well as Bai Qige's unconstrained strategies to quickly occupy the army.
On the upper hand, less than ten days had passed since Yi Chenjing fell into the trap and was besieged. The Yaojun army had clearly turned defeat into victory, forcing the Huoluohe army to retreat to the edge of the Dabang Highlands and was almost defeated.
The accident was discovered at this time. When Xiao Baishan explained the situation with a solemn face, Yi Chenjing did not react for a long time.
"Nearly 20% of the injured soldiers have abnormal conditions. Their wounds cannot heal. Dozens of them have died due to blood loss..." Taking a deep breath, full of sorrow and regret, Xiao Baishan's voice was low, "Can't find the reason, the doctor also said
I have never seen similar symptoms. If this continues, I don’t know how many troops will be lost in vain."
During the march all the way north to this place, many men and horses from Yaoguo were lost along the way. Every missing soldier was a huge loss. Yi Chenjing could not afford this heavy weight. Moreover, he was about to launch a general attack on the Pingda Bang Highlands.
If this situation is allowed to continue, who knows how many soldiers will die innocently? If it is an epidemic, it must be treated as soon as possible. If it really spreads, the consequences will be disastrous.
As Xiao Baishan walked around the camp, Yi Chenjing's heart became heavier and heavier.
A total of more than 600 people, including more than 100 fine riders, had wounds that could not heal. No matter how big or small the wound was, the blood could not stop flowing out. After a few days, the minor injuries turned into fatal injuries, and some serious injuries were almost fatal.
On the brink of death. Bai Qige was also present when she found the doctor accompanying the army. She had obviously received the news earlier than Yi Chenjing, and was busy helping the doctor inquire about the soldiers' injuries and taking care of a few more seriously wounded soldiers.
"Go back." Yi Chenjing pushed Bai Qige behind her with a cold face, her tone almost scolding.
Bai Qige was so busy that she was sweating profusely. She wiped it and returned to the center of the wounded soldiers without raising her head: "Human life is at stake. I don't have time to argue with you."
Other people's lives are important, but not hers? It's not clear whether it's an epidemic. What if it's infected? Bai Qige's lack of care about her makes Yi Chenjing very angry. The so-called caring is chaos, and she doesn't care about others around her.
The soldiers were there. He raised his hand and roughly pushed Bai Qige to Qiao Erhe: "Take her back. She is not allowed to leave the camp without my order!"
"Why do you—" He suddenly stopped mid-sentence. It wasn't just because he was too arrogant or something, Bai Qige's face was as pale as paper.
Yi Chenjing also regretted that his tone was too harsh. However, he was a grown man and could not apologize to a woman in front of everyone. He hesitated for a moment and softened his tone slightly: "Qiao Erhe, take the princess back. She is injured and tired.
No."
"Oh." Qiao Erhe was a real person, and in his eyes and heart he only hoped that Bai Qige would be well. He gently tugged on Bai Qige's sleeves without hesitation, with an expression of hope that Bai Qige couldn't bear to refuse.
After all, Yi Chenjing was the commander-in-chief of the three armies. Bai Qige did not want to refute his face. She glanced meaningfully at that handsome face, and then left silently.
Sighing helplessly, the Seventh Prince of Dayao, who had been immersed in military affairs all day long and was distracted, waved his hand, as if he wanted to wave away all the trivial worries, but in the end he only became more depressed - he understood that his words and deeds had offended Bai Qige again, and he must have done so.
Go back and coax and persuade him, otherwise she will not be able to talk to him for three days because of her bad temper.
It's okay to be indifferent to anyone, but she is the only one who is afraid of turning away when you hold her in your heart.
"General, I have never seen such a sick person before, but there are many suspicious things about the injured person's wounds." The doctor accompanying the army was a little impatient. He didn't care about the conflicts between Yi Chenjing and his wife, and pointed at the bleeding with a sad face.
For the wounded soldiers, "Normally the edges of the wounds are the color of flesh, but the edges of their wounds are all gray and white, with no signs of healing at all. To put it bluntly, their wounds have no ability to grow new flesh and cannot heal. Naturally, they cannot stop bleeding."
of."
Yi Chenjing frowned: "Could it be an epidemic?"
"The epidemic is not serious," the doctor accompanying the army shook his head. "It has been several days since the first injured person was found. If it was an epidemic, it should have been transmitted to others long ago, but the soldiers who shared the same tent with him did not have the same symptoms. The young medical practitioner
It has been thirty years, and this is the first time I have encountered this situation. Pathologically speaking, the root cause of such symptoms should be blood, not texture."
"If it's not a disease, what other possible causes are there?"
The doctor accompanying the army hesitated to speak. He thought for a moment before cautiously speaking: "Maybe... poisoning?"
Normally, Yi Chenjing would have thought that the doctor's answer was nonsense. In fact, injuries and illnesses during the march were possible, so where could the poison come from? However, Su Jinyan's reminder of unknown good and evil not long ago suddenly came to mind, and terrifying speculations were swirling in his mind.
lingering in it.
Poison, the dirty tricks used by Yi Chenxuan.
"The decisive battle is imminent. No matter what means are used, we must prevent the symptoms from spreading. I leave these people to you. I don't want to be cured. As long as they are still alive when our army returns in triumph, there will always be a way to treat them when we get to the imperial capital."
Patting the shoulder of the accompanying army doctor, Yi Chenjing turned to look at Xiao Baishan, "General Xiao, please mobilize some veterans from the rear army to help take care of them. In addition, pay attention to the situation of other injured soldiers. I think the war cannot be delayed any longer. How many people can you send later?
All the generals came to the big tent to discuss how to defeat the enemy quickly."
Xiao Baishan nodded and accepted the order. Seeing something wrong with Yi Chenjing's face, a trace of confusion flashed between his eyebrows: "The general is worried?"
"I'll go back to the camp first." Qingrun's voice could not be lowered. Yi Chenjing clenched her fists tightly, and her tone actually trembled.
There were not many people who could make him react like this, and now it was the dazzling princess who was in the limelight. Xiao Baishan couldn't help but become nervous, and when he heard the last part of Yi Chenjing's words, his heart immediately went cold.
"Qi Ge...she is also injured."
In the dimly lit camp, Bai Qige lay quietly on the soft couch sideways, her eyes closed tightly on her pale cheeks, a hint of pain could be seen between her trembling eyelashes and tightened brows. Behind her, a piece of blood seeped through her clothes and dyed the soft couch red.
When she learned that there was a strange disease in the army, she realized that her situation was not good. The wound, which was not considered serious, had not healed for several days. No matter how much hemostatic ointment was applied, it did not help. The symptoms were exactly the same as those of other wounded soldiers.
Excessive blood loss can lead to death, even if it is just a small wound. If the bleeding cannot be stopped in time, it will eventually lead to death.
The curtain was suddenly opened, the sunlight was dazzling, Bai Qige raised her hand to block it, and barely heard a sigh.
He finally discovered it.
"Is this why you've been avoiding me these past few days?" Dipping his fingertips into the sticky blood on the soft couch, Yi Chenjing felt eerily calm.
Recently, Bai Qige always refused to get close to him, and even when resting at night, she seemed to be far away from him. He thought she was still angry with him before, but he didn't expect the truth to be so cruel.
This was a fatal wound, a fatal poison, but she remained silent and did not mention a single word to him.
"Do you want to let me know after you die? Looking at your body, you regret why you didn't care about you more and care about you, right?" Wiping off the blood on her fingertips, Yi Chenjing lowered her eyes and looked at Bai Qige, whether she was alive or not.
Death seemed weightless in his mouth, and his face was as dull as dead water.
For no reason, Bai Qige felt flustered and heartbroken.
"I know my own body, this little injury won't kill me - at least I won't be fine until you come back victorious, I promise." He spoke in a hoarse, pale voice.
What a fragile lie, with a pale face, and a body that is too tired to recover. She even has no strength to insist on riding with him on the battlefield anymore. She can only do what she can to help him silently. At this time, do you still want to say that it doesn't matter? Yi
Chen Jing couldn't describe how she felt in her heart. The five flavors were mixed, sour and sad, all of which were deeply buried under her calm expression.
Unexpectedly, he stretched out his hand and tore the blood-stained cloth with a hiss. Regardless of whether the large amount of blood would stain his sleeves and palms, Yi Chenjing held Bai Qige tightly in his arms, feeling as if his heart was being cut by a knife.
"Even if I beg you, cherish your life, okay? Only you..."
