Shang Ruyi's heart skipped a beat and she looked up at him.
Thinking back again, when I saw him at the door of the Xingluocang warehouse, there were scratches everywhere on his body and hands, especially a large dried blood stain on his shoulder, which was obviously caused by a serious injury. of.
She immediately said: "His shoulders——"
Mu Xian nodded and said, "My shoulder was pierced by a dead branch."
"...!"
Shang Ruyi gasped.
Mu Xian looked at her shoulder, which was still covered with thick bandages, and said with a wry smile: "The young master and the young lady are really a couple. They are even injured in the same place."
"..."
"At that time, everyone was worried to death, fearing that the young master would not be able to survive."
"..."
"But the young master not only survived, but also endured serious injuries, sneaked into Xingluocang City, and attacked those people again... Young Madam, I am not partial to the young master, but you are indeed a little too risky this time. What if? Something really happened and it’s life-threatening.”
"..."
After hearing these words, Shang Ruyi came back to his senses.
She slowly calmed down, thought about it for a while, and then said angrily, "But I, I did it to save him—"
Mu Xian said: "Well, this is what makes the young master even more angry."
"What?"
Shang Ruyi was puzzled. Before she could ask again, Yu Wenye's angry voice suddenly sounded outside the tent: "What nonsense are you talking to her about? Come out!"
The two people in the tent were startled. They never expected that he had not gone far and actually heard their conversation. Mu Xian did not dare to say more, he only winked at Shang Ruyi and hurriedly turned around and left. go out.
Shang Ruyi was left alone, feeling a little dazed for a moment.
So, when she was risking her life, Yu Wenye almost lost his life for her?
So what does it mean for them to be like this?
Can this amount be included in the transaction?
She just felt that her mind was in chaos, and she couldn't even tell whether she was happy or aggrieved at this moment, or if there were other emotions slowly swelling in her chest, making her unable to control herself.
Just when Shang Ruyi was confused and couldn't tell the direction, a group of men and horses broke through the wind and snow and rushed into Dongdu City.
It was Yu Wenye who arranged for him to go and report the results of the battle.
The man held a bamboo tube sealed with fire paint high in his hand, and while galloping on his horse, he shouted: "Xingluocang is victorious! General Fu Guo is victorious! Xingluocang has been recaptured!"
There was a heavy wind and snow, and there were not many people on the street. Most of the people were staying at home. But when they heard the sound, everyone opened the doors and windows and walked out. Many people asked loudly: "Really?" Really? Did Xingluocang really get it back?"
The man on horseback did not stop to answer, but continued to gallop forward.
But the remaining common people started to make a fuss, and many people said happily: "I didn't expect that less than half a month after the troops were sent out, such a big granary was actually brought back!"
"The general of the auxiliary country is really a god!"
"Of course, that's the second son of the Yuwen family. Duke Sheng Guo is a good fighter. A tiger father has no dog son!"
….
The crowd became more and more lively as they talked, and even the white snow that had fallen one after another was flying with emotion. Such emotions followed the person who reported the results of the battle all the way into Ziwei City, and the news was sent to the main hall, in the hands of the Emperor.
Chu Yang unfolded it and took a look, and a joyful smile immediately appeared on the elegant and handsome face like white jade.
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
He said three words "good" on his face, then closed the report with a snap, nodded and said: "Unexpectedly, the general of the auxiliary country led his troops to the expedition, and won a complete victory in less than half a month, and regained the Xingluocang."
When the courtiers standing on both sides of the civil and military sides heard this, they all had various expressions on their faces.
That
Several of them immediately came out and said, "Congratulations to the Emperor, congratulations to the Emperor."
"The Emperor has been blessed by heaven. The generals of the auxiliary country are invincible and invincible. It is truly a blessing for our government. I am very happy and congratulated."
"Your Majesty, the general and soldiers should be rewarded generously!"
When Chu Yang heard this, he nodded repeatedly, his face full of joy. But at this moment, a sharp voice suddenly sounded from above the court, suppressing all the joyous voices at once——
"Retaking Xingluocang may be a great joy, but to say that the general of the auxiliary country is invincible would be an exaggeration."
As soon as they heard this voice, everyone fell silent. When they turned around, it was Wang Shaoji, the general of the Right Guards, who slowly walked to the center of the hall and said to Chu Yang: "Your Majesty, Yu Wenye was defeated three times in three battles before. , lost troops and generals, and the situation in Xingluo Cang is still unclear. Why did the good news suddenly come out today? Whether it is true or false, I am afraid that Your Majesty will have to carefully distinguish it to avoid falling into the trap of the female cadre."
Chu Yang's face slowly darkened.
At this time, an official immediately walked out of the queue on the other side, it was Guanglu doctor Mao Xiaoyi. He said seriously: "General Wang, even we civil servants know that subduing the enemy's troops without fighting is the best policy, but it is not allowed. Forcibly, in any battle, soldiers will inevitably be lost. As long as they can win and regain the lost territory for the court, it is a credit. Although the general of Fuguo lost several battles before, he was able to recapture Xingluo Cang, which was unparalleled for the court. Gong, why is it that such a real contribution is regarded as a 'female cadre trick' in your words? Doesn't this chill the hearts of the frontline soldiers?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone around them nodded in agreement.
Wang Shaoji sneered and said, "Master Mao only knows one but not the other."
Mao Xiaoyi said: "Oh? Then what does General Wang know that we don't know?"
Wang Shaoji only glanced at him, but instead of facing him, he turned around and said loudly to Chu Yang: "Your Majesty, before going to court, I just received news from the frontline guards - Yu Wenye rebelled against the country and surrendered to the enemy, and even killed Kou Yunliang, the emperor's personal supervisor; now, he is leading the remaining 10,000 soldiers and horses to defend Xingluocang, and his movements are unknown!"
Upon hearing this, the entire court fell silent.
Chu Yang's expression also changed: "What did you say?"
Wang Shaoji said: "Yu Wenye, rebel!"
This sentence was like dropping a huge stone in the pond, which immediately exploded the whole court. The civil servants and generals on both sides all argued loudly. Some said that Yu Wenye should be punished immediately, and some Some said they wanted to find out the situation, and some even directly petitioned the emperor to destroy Sheng Guogong Man's family, while others immediately pledged their heads and the lives of their entire family to guarantee that the Yuwen family would never rebel against the imperial court.
….
For a time, the entire court was in chaos.
The expression on Chu Yang's face kept changing. He was panicked for a while, gloomy for a while, and then when he looked at the quarreling people below, his face suddenly became livid, and even his eyes were a little red.
Wang Shaoji once again took a step forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Yu Wenye has been rebelling for a long time, and he can't stay if he makes trouble this time!"
At the same time, a person also walked out of the team of courtiers on the other side.
This man is about thirty years old, with handsome appearance and calm temperament. He is Guan Ao, the official in charge. He said sternly: "Your Majesty, I think this is a merit or a crime. It's too early to say anything. If we make a hasty decision, there may be some omissions."
As soon as Wang Shaoji saw him coming out, he immediately sneered and said, "The official is the nephew of Sheng Guogong and is also a relative of Yu Wenye. When you say this, you are naturally protecting your relatives and friends. Your Majesty, you cannot believe his words."
But Guan Ao didn't even look at him and continued to say: "Your Majesty, everything I say is for your Majesty's benefit."
"oh?"
Chu Yang raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What are Guan Aiqing's considerations?"
Guan Ao said: "It is a fact that Yu Wenye won a great victory, and it is also a fact that he killed the supervisors. However, the situation on the front line is changing rapidly. Once this achievement is over, I am afraid that there is a reason for it. It will be hurt to convict a general who has worked hard and made great achievements without asking the reason. The hearts of the soldiers on the front line are even more unfavorable to the people. It is better to recall the generals of the auxiliary country and ask for the reasons before convicting them."
Wang Shaoji sneered: "Yu Wenye has something in his hand.
Soldier, there is food in the warehouse. If you call him back, you will be a disaster! "
Upon hearing this, Chu Yang frowned again.
Some of the ministers also showed an uneasy look - you know, killing the emperor's close officials is regarded as treason. Since Yu Wenye dared to do this, he regarded the emperor's life as nothing. What could such a person not dare to do? What's more, he now has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses given by the imperial court, as well as Sheng Guogong's own soldiers and horses, and has captured an entire Xingluocang. If he really wants to cause chaos, I'm afraid he will be called back and the Eastern Capital City will be destroyed. Can't keep it.
After thinking about this, a group of officials immediately said: "Your Majesty, please think again."
"Yu Wenye's movements are unknown, so we must be on guard."
"This matter needs to be considered in the long term."
Seeing that everyone around him started to react, Guan Ao's expression became more and more solemn, but he did not immediately refute. Instead, he raised his head and looked at the front of the queue, where he saw a familiar tall figure.
It was none other than Duke Shenwu—Dong Bizheng.
She was the first wife of Duke Sheng and the brother of Mrs. Dong. At this moment, the Duke frowned, as if he was struggling with something, but he never spoke.
In this way, it seems that Guan'ao is isolated and helpless amidst a group of objections.
Wang Shaoji even said coldly: "The people who came back from the Imperial Guard also said that when General Fu Guo sent troops this time, his wife also went with him. Wouldn't it be true that the general brought his female family members with him when he went on an expedition? He had already had some influence on the court. To be on guard against?"
Chu Yang's brows suddenly wrinkled: "What?"
Upon hearing this, even Guan Ao's expression changed.
Everyone knows that when a general goes on an expedition, there cannot be any female dependents in the army. Not only is he worried about disturbing the morale of the army and delaying the fighter plane, but more importantly, when a general goes out to lead troops and receive food, it is a threat to the enemy, and it is also a threat to the court. Threat, if the soldiers on the front line become rebellious, then the soldiers and horses of the imperial court will become a sharp sword piercing the imperial court.
Therefore, it is an unwritten rule that the female dependents of soldiers must stay in the city when they go on an expedition.
Unexpectedly, this time, Yu Wenye took his wife on an expedition!
If he does this, no matter what the result is, to the people above the court, it is already a harbinger of rebellion!
Wang Shaoji said loudly: "I ask your Majesty to immediately send troops to surround Xingluocang and kill Yu Wenye!"
At this time, Guan Ao became anxious and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, you must not do this!"
Chu Yang didn't say a word, just looked at them coldly, his slender eyes were slightly closed, and the cold expression revealed inside was intimidating. Everyone held their breath, as if waiting for his last moment. of the verdict.
