Shang Ruyi stood in the middle of the empty courtyard, watching Chu Yang's back disappear at the door. Even the trace of leisurely cold fragrance left on the tip of her nose was swept away by the night wind, and she still couldn't recover for a long time.
What does he mean by this?
Shang Ruyi only felt that her head was buzzing with some chaotic thoughts, which was worse than the shock when the Turkic soldiers attacked the city during the day, until Tusheer came in from outside, walked up to her, and asked her Whatever happened, she finally came back to her senses.
"How did you come?"
Tusheer said softly: "My slave, I'm worried about the young lady."
Shang Ruyi immediately understood and said with a smile: "Are you really worried about what will happen between me and the emperor?"
Tusheer hurriedly shook his head: "Of course I believe in the young lady's character. It's just that - people are scary, and His Majesty the Emperor's behavior makes me a little uneasy."
"..."
Shang Ruyi smiled, then stretched out his hand to her: "I'm a little cold, help me back to the room."
Tusheer immediately helped her back to the room and sat down. Feeling that her fingertips were cold, he immediately poured her hot tea and asked, "So, miss, do you really recognize His Majesty?"
Shang Ruyi took a sip of tea and said, "Not only do I recognize it, you also recognize it."
"I?"
Tu Sheer was even more surprised: "How is it possible? I have never——"
"Didn't you almost scold him when he stopped our carriage?"
"ah!?"
Tusheer's eyes almost fell out of their sockets, and he said with a horrified look on his face: "Ah? That, that - is His Majesty the Emperor?!"
Shang Ruyi nodded.
Tusheer was immediately frightened and broke into a cold sweat, and said: "No wonder, no wonder those imperial doctors hurt you when they took the arrows for you, young lady. When Your Majesty scolded those people for their incompetence, I heard the voice so familiar. It turns out, it turned out to be that people."
Shang Ruyi smiled and said: "It seems that your eyesight is not good either."
"Who would have thought of this!"
Tu Sheer muttered in a low voice: "I heard that His Majesty is already in his thirties, and his daughter, the Crescent Princess, is only two or three years younger than you, Miss. Who would have thought that he is so young, and he looks like an uncle." about there."
Shang Ruyi couldn't help but laugh bitterly - yes, Chu Yang's face was so deceptive. If not, he wouldn't have guessed his identity until a few days ago.
Tu Sheer said worriedly: "Miss..."
"What's wrong?"
"The emperor carried you back to the government office in front of everyone. What if my uncle finds out about this?"
"..."
"He, will he misunderstand the young lady?"
She didn't say it was okay, but when she suddenly mentioned Yu Wenye, Shang Ruyi's heart suddenly went cold.
Yes, Yu Wenye.
Just a few days ago, she was eagerly hoping that Yu Wenye could arrive in Yanmen County as soon as possible, at least to give her some comfort when she felt hopeless. However, she did not expect that the Turks were calling. She was seriously injured, and Yu Wenye was not even a shadow.
What's even more ridiculous is that he is accompanying Princess Crescent Moon from behind, and here he is involved with Princess Crescent Moon's father.
Is there anything more ridiculous than this in this world? !
Shang Ruyi gave a bitter smile, his smile full of fatigue: "Okay, I still say the same thing, even if we really want to care about this matter, at least wait until we can survive this difficulty."
"That--"
"You go down, I want to rest."
Tu Sheer had no choice but to help her sleep and then left the room.

However, this night, there was not enough peace for them to rest.
Just when everything was silent and almost everyone fell asleep, the Turks launched another massive siege.
Shang Ruyi was awakened by the loud rumbling outside. As soon as she realized what was happening outside, even the beams were about to collapse. Tusheer hurriedly rushed to her room to protect her; and although the courtyard outside was empty, they could still hear the footsteps of many people amidst the noise, and they seemed to be guarding outside the courtyard.
This battle lasted until dawn.
The noise outside gradually subsided, and the tight feeling faded away. Shang Ruyi understood that they had once again defended Yanmen County.
Only this time, successfully defending the city was much more difficult than before.
It was also much more tragic.
Tusheer went out for a trip and told Shang Ruyi when he came back that the wounded soldiers in the city were scattered all over the city. There were not enough military doctors and official doctors. They could only listen to their wounded and wailing, but there was no one to treat them. Many ordinary people also went to Beicheng. The door helped.
Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi immediately put on his clothes and walked out with Tu Sheer.
As soon as he reached the entrance of the courtyard, he was stopped by two heavily armed Guardsmen.
"Madam, where are you going?"
Shang Ruyi was startled, but seeing how polite they were, she also said politely: "I heard that there are many wounded soldiers in the city who have no one to treat them. I want to help."
The two people looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
One of them said: "But it's dangerous outside -"
Shang Ruyi said: "Isn't the battle over? There should be no danger for the time being. Besides -"
She looked at them with twinkling eyes: "Your Majesty should just ask you to protect me, not imprison me, right?"
Those two people had nothing to say.
It is true that the emperor sent this team of imperial guards to guard the courtyard where Mrs. Yuwen lived temporarily, and no one was allowed to enter and disturb her, but he did not say that she was not allowed to go out.
The two of them thought about it and said, "Then, we will send someone to follow the young lady."
Shang Ruyi said: "Thank you very much."
So, she took Tusheer and several guards out of the mansion.
As soon as I went out, I realized what kind of hell the outside had become - the bloody scenes hidden by the high-walled houses were completely displayed in front of Shang Ruyi.
On the street, countless people came and went.
But these people were not wandering around, but dragging corpses one after another back from the city gate. In the distance, the corpses of the dead soldiers had piled up like mountains, and countless wailing and crying sounds could be heard. Skyrim.
But what is more in front of me is the pain of the living people.
Wounded soldiers who had retreated from the front had crowded the streets and alleys. Some of them had even collapsed on the roadside without care. The blood stains on the road were getting heavier and heavier, and the smell of blood made it almost impossible to breathe. Official doctors and military doctors came with Some of the people in the city who came to help were busy everywhere, but they still couldn't take care of them.
Shang Ruyi hurriedly said to Tusheer: "Let's go help."
"good!"
Tusheer didn't show any pretense, and immediately went up to get some medicine. While helping the wounded soldiers to treat and bandage their wounds, he headed towards the north city gate. The further he walked, the more seriously injured the wounded soldiers were, and the stronger the smell of blood became.
Finally, they finally came to the city gate.
As soon as he got close, Shang Ruyi was immediately stunned by the scene in front of him.
