After eating the barbecue, Bai Sanshu and others left with the remaining barbecue. It was not convenient for them to stay here to rest at night.
"Go to bed early, I'm so sleepy. I want to see if your duvet keeps me warm. If it wakes me up in the middle of the night, I'll cover it with your coat." Qin Xuerou said, pulling Yayang.
The princess entered the tent first.
Although Bai Ling wanted to sleep with them, with Shangguan Yu around, the two of them would always have to say a word before they separated.
"Shangguan, are you in trouble? I see you haven't eaten much and you are always distracted." Bai Ling asked with concern.
"I don't know what's wrong. I always feel flustered tonight, as if something big is about to happen." Shangguan Yu stroked his chest and frowned: "It's stuffy here, and it still hurts a little."
"Isn't it because you feel unwell?" Bai Ling took Shangguan Yu's wrist and checked his pulse, "There is nothing wrong with your body. Maybe it's because you don't like this environment that you feel like this. Have a good night's sleep."
, you’ll be fine when you get up tomorrow.”
"Yeah." Not wanting Bai Ling to worry, Shangguan Yu walked her to the tent, watched Bai Ling enter the tent, and then turned back to the campfire.
The orange flame shone on Shangguan Yu's handsome face, but it could not warm the serious look on his face.
Putting a hand on his chest, the uneasy feeling became stronger and stronger, making Shangguan Yu's breathing quicken.
"Strange, could it be that the poison has not been removed?" Shangguan Yu could not explain this strange feeling, and could only suspect that it was the sequelae of the last poisoning.
Looking up at the tent, I saw that the fire had been extinguished and there was the sound of even breathing. He must have fallen asleep.
"Even if I am poisoned, I will not become a puppet and will never harm Ling'er!" Shangguan Yu did not dare to judge his own situation, but made an oath to Yuehua.
Although poison is terrible, what is terrible is the human heart.
Shangguan Yu firmly believes that as long as the belief in his heart is firm enough, lovers will never kill each other.
On the way to the wedding party, unless they can catch up with the inn, they will stop at the residence of a local official.
The team was huge and should not have moved quickly, but the King of Han required everyone to wait at the speed of marching and fighting, and the emperor handed over the power to the King of Han, so everyone had no choice but to follow even if they had complaints.
Even after Princess Miya complained, she didn't show her temper and refused to leave.
We finally arrived at the border city and stayed here for one night. The city gate would open tomorrow and we would have to walk a hundred miles and the wedding ceremony would be over.
It was night, and the King of Han habitually went outside the city to investigate the situation in case someone ambushed on the road tomorrow and affected the marriage.
Unexpectedly, the King of Han and his guards were ambushed.
"Your Majesty, please leave first. I will wait for you." During the fight, the guards tried their best to protect the King of Han, so that at least his back would be safe.
"When did I become the kind of person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? We are all brothers, and we must come back alive together!" King Han's armor was stained with blood, but his fighting spirit was strong, "Brothers, we are all battlefields
If we don't kill these hidden rats today, we won't be able to return to the city."
"Okay, let's kill him!" Everyone's blood was aroused, and the swords in their hands were swung faster and more accurately.
For a moment, there was only the clash of weapons and roars.
Each living life fell down and became corpses.
Many people had broken arms or missing legs, but they refused to harm their comrades. If they could no longer resist the enemy, they simply used their own flesh and blood to block the enemy's attacks for their comrades.
The fighting lasted for nearly two hours, and the King of Han had very few personal guards left.
As for the men in black, almost their entire army was wiped out.
"Your Majesty, let's work harder and kill these scoundrels together!" The guard spat out a mouthful of blood. He couldn't tell whether it was his own or what was splashed into his mouth when he killed someone.
"Don't chase the enemy when you are poor." The King of Han raised his hand and stopped his subordinates who wanted to continue to chase the enemy. He looked at the few of his own people left, but he did not feel the joy of victory. "Write down their names and give them a generous reward when you turn around."
Settlement expenses. Tomorrow morning, we will bring someone to bury them."
Those who are still alive are all injured to varying degrees and are in urgent need of bandaging and recuperation.
We're not sure if the enemy will have any backup plan, so we can only take care of the living people at this time.
The guards paid a military salute to their dead companions and then left in the direction of the Han Dynasty city gate.
However, the city gate was tightly closed. No matter how many times the King of Han called for it, it was never opened, and no one even answered.
"Hurry up!" King Han realized something was wrong and immediately shouted.
"Ah!" However, before the guards could react, cold arrows were fired from the tower, and some of the guards fell to the ground dead.
"Quick, protect the prince and evacuate quickly." The guards were all experienced in many battles, but this was the first time they had been shot by one of their own men, so they could only evacuate in a hurry.
But when the arrows rained down from the sky, how could a few personal guards protect him?
Watching helplessly as his guards fell to the ground one by one to protect him, King Han's eyes were filled with blood and tears.
first,
The King of Han hated the royal family he defended.
"Ah!" The King of Han roared up to the sky, letting the arrows come and stopped dodging.
"Your Majesty, stay alive...take revenge!" The last guard blocked the King of Han with his body and became a living target.
"It is this king who has caused trouble for you!" The King of Han supported his bodyguards who were like hedgehogs and said bitterly: "As long as this king lives, this revenge will be avenged!"
In the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, the person who most wanted his death was the King of Han who refused to do what he wanted.
But now that he was trapped under the city wall, the King of Han didn't think there was any possibility of escaping, but this hatred was etched in his bones.
With a pop, a sharp arrow pierced King Han's shoulder blade. If it had not been dark, King Han would have been able to see the blood flowing out of the wound, which was not a normal look.
"Kill!" Someone suddenly shouted loudly on top of the city tower, and then the sound of fighting came.
The King of Han leaned against the city wall. At this time, he could only continue to use the corpses of his guards as shields, waiting for the guards who had not followed him out of the city to come to rescue him.
The fighting on the city tower was no less cruel than the one the King of Han had just experienced.
How could ordinary city-defending soldiers be a match for the elite soldiers of the King of Han?
It was almost a one-sided massacre. The arrow rain soon disappeared, but the sound of fighting became more and more intense.
Before King Han lost consciousness, some personal guards came looking for him and disappeared into the moonlight with him.
Princess Miya, who lived in the General's Mansion, heard the unreal sound of fighting and couldn't help pacing around the house excitedly, almost going out to explore the situation.
"Are the generals guarding the city from my father or my brother?" Princess Minya asked the nanny beside her. At this time, she was the only one she could trust.
"General Wang has received favors from the Chen family before." Mammy said uncertainly.
"Great, it must have been arranged by the imperial brother." Princess Miya's smile became brighter again, and she ordered her mother: "Go and find out what happened ahead. The secret that my mother-in-law left for me before.
Wei, maybe it’s time to put it to use.”
Grandma took the order and left, but in the study room of the General's Mansion, General Wang was playing chess with the military advisor, turning a deaf ear to the sound of fighting outside.
"If the King of Han can die in the city, and the general has made great achievements, he may be able to return to the capital and be appointed." The military advisor held a pot of wine in his hand and was not very interested in the chess game. (To be continued)
