Chapter 155 Gentle and crazy criticizing foreign protons (38)
Overnight, the situation in the court changed, and the imperial city, which had been peaceful for a long time, became lively again.
Within a few days, several parts of the border defense city were captured and attacked one after another. The soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and most of the soldiers sent by the imperial court to support were also killed or injured.
The ministers in the DPRK were all frightened and asked to see the new emperor Zhao Jinghe, hoping that he would take action to settle the matter as soon as possible.
What awaits is not a solution, but a bottomless pit of conscription.
Zhu Yu sent the prince a delaying plan a few days ago, but he never got a reply. Now he was anxiously walking around the house.
no!
"Prepare your horse, I want to..."
She had made an agreement with Zhao Jinghe before, and if she didn't reply for three days, she would go to the imperial city to see him.
"lady!"
Seventeen's anxious shouts sounded outside the door.
Zhu Yu stopped and looked back at the young man running in the distance: "What happened?"
"The master was suddenly attacked on the way back, please go and have a look!" Seventeen said in a low voice.
Being attacked?
Zhu Yu's expression changed and he hurriedly followed him to Fuwai Medical Center.
Seventeen followed closely behind, and the moment he walked into the hospital, a strong smell of blood hit his face.
A man was lying on the bed, his clothes were in tatters, there was a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth, and his breath was weak. He had obviously suffered serious internal injuries. When he saw Zhu Yu's arrival, a look of joy flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say a word.
"Xiao Jing!"
Zhu Yu approached the man and found that his arms were covered with knife marks and blood seeped into his clothes, which was shocking.
"Who can even hurt you?"
The young man shook his head and forced a smile: "It's okay, master, don't worry."
Seventeen spoke bluntly, standing behind and shouting loudly: "The An Dynasty is now in chaos, and our team of envoys from the Kingdom of Lin are ambushed everywhere!"
"We don't pay attention to our little quarrels on weekdays. Now we have actually hired a special assassin to assassinate our master. It is so despicable. It is simply a wolf-hearted thing!"
Jamel Xiao raised his eyes and glared at Shi Qi fiercely.
Seventeen was startled and shut up.
Zhu Yu looked at the man's pale and bloodless face, and his palms kept sweating.
The prince always breaks his word like this, who is giving him bad advice?
How can you govern a country if you can't even distinguish between friends and foes?
Anger welled up in her heart, but she suppressed it.
The medical officer quickly prepared the medicine and Zhu Yu bandaged Xiao Jingzhan's wound.
He also ordered his subordinates to send him the boiled medicine for Xiao Jingzhan to take. He checked his pulse again and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that his life was not in danger.
"Xiao Jing, have a good rest. You don't have to practice sword practice these days."
Jamel Xiao held the girl's hand, curved his lips and nodded obediently.
But she was withdrawing her hand.
"Where is Master going?"
Xiao Jingzhan was panicked for no reason. He grabbed the corner of her clothes tightly, his voice trembling.
Zhu Yu pushed him back to lie down, covered him with a quilt, and sighed helplessly, "I'm going to find Zhao Jinghe to see what's going on with him."
Now the relationship between her and Xiao Jingzhan is considered close. Zhu Yu did not hide it in front of him and said whatever he wanted.
Xiao Jingzhan still didn't let go of his hand, looking at her eagerly, "Master, are you going to leave Xiao Jing behind?"
After being stunned for a second, even his eyes turned red.
Zhu Yu sighed softly, stretched out his hand to rub Xiao Jingzhan's head, and replied patiently and softly: "How could it be? Xiao Jing is the most important person in the master. I just went to discuss some things with him and will be back before dinner."
Maybe it was because he was injured and was prone to wandering thoughts. The boy's expression did not improve. His long eyelashes were drooped, hiding the reluctance and loss in his eyes.
The young man relaxed his hand politely.
He raised his eyes with a smile and suggested in a warm voice: "Master, let's go back to Lin Country, it's not safe here."
Say yes.
Just nod your head.
I will forgive him.
You can retreat thousands of troops just like the king did when he was a female general.
"Wait a little longer. Once His Highness's affairs are properly arranged and Concubine Ling's favor is repaid, and everything is over, I will go back with you."
"……good."
Xiao Jamzhan was silent for a long time before speaking slowly.
Zhu Yu leaves.
The room became quiet.
Xiao Jingzhan looked at the closed door, and his eyes gradually became silent.
As long as there is no place for her, it will be like a cold palace.
The walls are made of copper and iron, and the high walls block out the sun and not even a trace of warmth can penetrate through.
His chest hurt, and the wounds on his arms were torn and bleeding from standing up from the bed. The young man glanced at them and ignored them.
He sat blankly on the edge of the bed.
"master……"
Shi Qi came in from outside and felt a little uncomfortable seeing the young man being so strangely quiet.
Madam didn't stay, she should have lost her temper and smashed things.
"go out."
"yes."
Seventeen was stunned for a moment, then turned around and exited the room.
The young man stared deeply at the window, his eyes unclear.
Master will keep his word, right?
Master loves him so much, how could he abandon him?
Definitely not.
…
Royal Palace.
Zhu Yu had the jade token that Zhao Jinghe left for her and entered the palace smoothly. The people around him also knew Zhu Yu and respectfully invited her in.
In the imperial study room, the young man was reviewing the memorial. When he heard the footsteps, he raised his head and saw it was Zhu Yu. His eyebrows stretched, a smile appeared on his face and he stood up to greet him: "A Ran, you are here."
Zhu Yu promptly saluted the young man with a respectful and distant attitude, "See Your Majesty."
The young man's smile froze on his face, and there was a trace of pain and loss in his eyes, and then he quickly returned to normal, "A Ran, there's no need to be polite."
He stepped forward and helped Zhu Yu up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhu Yu took two steps back and responded in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.
After the two of them took their seats, Zhu Yu analyzed the current situation and the appropriate solutions.
The boy paused while holding the teacup, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't.
At this time, someone announced outside the gate, and Chang Sunxin came in to report that there was a disaster of refugees outside the northwest city gate and asked to see the new emperor.
Zhao Jinghe made arrangements without saying a word, and then went to appease the people.
In contrast, silence is the biggest barrier.
Zhu Yu picked up the tea cup and took a sip. She understood.
The temperature of the tea was just right, but unfortunately his mood was completely different from before.
Zhu Yu was about to leave, but Zhao Jinghe stopped in front of her, with a hint of guilt on his handsome face.
"Aran, I'm sorry that I have troubled you during this period, but I have to do this."
His tone was firm and persistent.
Zhu Yu looked at him silently, his eyes gradually narrowed.
"Aran, I must defend the country of An Dynasty, and I must defend it for the sake of my mother and concubine!"
The boy's eyes gradually turned red.
Mother-in-law, not mother-in-law.
He knows his life experience.
"A Ran, come with me to resettle the refugees. With you here, I have nothing to fear."
"Aran..."
"good."
Zhu Yu saw that it was still early, thinking that Zhao Jinghe might still be saved, so he followed.
Of course, she didn't forget to send a message to Jamel Xiao, but she didn't know that it would be intercepted.
