At this time, Xiang Ye also came closer and looked at Su Rong. He and Mrs. Ye were worthy of being husband and wife, and they had exactly the same thoughts in their hearts.
That day, Zhou Gu Ye broke into Ye Guixue's mansion to find Ye Guixue. He didn't see anyone secretly, but now that he saw Su Rong's appearance and thought about the rumors about Zhou Gu's two-handed sword being famous all over the world, he felt deeply. Sigh deeply.
His son was not lucky enough to win the heart of such a princess. But he is very lucky. After all, he was saved by the princess today and did not lose his life.
Only when your life is saved can you talk about the future. Ye Guixue's future, Ye Guiyan's future, and the entire Ye Xiang Mansion's future.
This is a great favor. I will have to swear allegiance to Ye Xiangfu from now on, right?
Ye Xiang also bent down deeply. For many years, he had never bent down so deeply in front of the King of Nanchu and made such a great salute, "Old Minister Ye Yu, I would like to pay my respects to the princess."
Su Rong quickly let go of Madam Ye and reached out to support Ye Xiang. She had martial arts skills and could easily lift Ye Xiang up without any effort, "Ye Xiang, no need to be polite."
Ye Xiang straightened up and sighed, "If the princess hadn't arrived in time, this valley would have been the burial place of the old minister and his family."
Su Rong let go of him and said: "After I entered the border of Nanchu, I heard reports that the Nangong family sent soldiers and horses to intercept and hunt down Ye Xiang's family, so I ordered some soldiers and horses and came quickly. I am also glad to have come. timely."
After hearing this, Prime Minister Ye looked at Su Rong carefully, and sure enough he saw that her face was faintly tired, and her eyes had thick dark circles. It was obvious that she was really anxious to save them, but she was clean, her clothes were neat, and there was no blood. She was different from them on the battlefield. The bloody severed limbs and remains were in sharp contrast, as well as the contrast with him and his wife and sons, so it was not obvious at a glance that she was in a hurry to save people.
The Prime Minister paid his respects again, "Your Majesty, I am so kind to you..."
"Hey, Ye Xiang, Ye Xiang, aren't you tired?" Su Rong stopped him quickly, "Stop being so polite. You're not tired, I'm tired."
Night phase: "..."
Madam Ye suddenly laughed, "Okay, husband, our whole family will remember the great kindness the princess has shown to our family. Just listen to the princess, please stop saluting. I didn't hear the princess say that we were exhausted after traveling all the way to save us." Hurry up and deal with all the post-war matters first, and then everyone can take a break and take a breath. It’s not too late to talk about some things slowly.”
Ye Xiang held his forehead and smiled, "Okay."
Because of this small episode, both sides became familiar with each other immediately. After laughing and chatting for a few more words, they began to deal with post-war matters, cleaning the battlefield, registering the wounded, treating the injured, and organizing the affairs.
Of the 100,000 soldiers and horses in Ye Guixue's hands, after the war, statistics showed that 21,000 were slightly injured and 14,000 were seriously injured. Of the 100,000 soldiers and horses, only 35,000 were left alive.
This number cannot be stomach-churning, but if Zhou Gu does not suggest leaving the royal capital, Ye Guixue does not obey, and Ye Xiang refuses to leave without his consent, after the king leaves the royal capital, all the anger of the Nangong family will be directed at Ye Xiang Mansion, maybe more than 100,000 soldiers and horses have been exhausted now, and the Ye Xiang Mansion may also be destroyed.
After all, Han Yin and 50,000 elite soldiers sent by the Wei Crown Prince Yuan Zhao were really powerful.
The soldiers and horses from Jinglu led by He Zhong suffered 50,000 minor injuries, 15,000 serious injuries, and captured 65,000 soldiers and horses.
When Fengling heard this number, she said to Fengling: "Hey, sister, if you add up the two armies and horses, look how neat they are, it's exactly one hundred thousand soldiers and horses."
Su Rong glanced at him. After a hard night's work, Fengling could hardly open his eyes. It was hard for him to smile. "This shows that Nanchu lost a hundred thousand soldiers and horses after this civil war."
Fengling was immediately unhappy. All these losses were the soldiers and horses that her sister would inherit in the future. He cursed, "It's all the fault of the Nangong family thieves."
Su Rong waved to him, "Stop scolding, go and rest! Set up camp, recuperate for a day, and then we'll set off again."
Fengling nodded and went to his tent in confusion.
With Fengling and Qin Ruo here, and several lieutenants in the army taking care of things, Su Rong didn't need to worry about many things. Therefore, Su Rong slept for half the night last night and woke up this morning feeling refreshed.
Last night, Lanzhi reported that while bandaging Ye Guixue's wound, he was so seriously injured that he fainted in the process. Ye Guiyan wasn't much better either. He waited until the bandage was finished and fell asleep.
Su Rong guessed that Ye Guixue was almost awake, so she planned to go and see him.
She walked to Ye Guixue's tent, and the soldiers and guards all saluted her. She nodded and asked, "Is Young Master Ye awake?"
"The princess has woken up and is talking to the prime minister and his wife." Someone replied: "I will go and report it now."
Su Rong nodded and said, "I'm here to see him. Is it convenient to ask?"
This person must have gone immediately.
Not long after, Prime Minister Ye and his wife came out in person. Madam Ye said with a smile: "Gui Xue just woke up. Fortunately, Miss Lanzhi beside the princess has superb medical skills, otherwise ordinary military doctors would not be able to treat his injuries."
Su Rong had already listened to Lanzhi's report, "Just wake up and you'll be fine. Can I ask someone to change the dressing?"
"It was changed just now by a military doctor. For small things like changing the dressing, he asked the military doctor to come. He didn't want to trouble Miss Lanzhi anymore," Madam Ye said.
Su Rong nodded and asked, "How is the eldest son?"
"Guiyan hasn't woken up yet. He is a few years older, but his physique is not as good as his younger brother." Madam Ye lowered her voice and said, "If Gui Xue hadn't wanted the secret guards to escape with Gui Yan, Gui Xue wouldn't have been so seriously injured. , he forcibly ordered all the secret guards around him to take away his eldest brother, but Guiyan was also stubborn. He said that if the family was going to die, they would die together. He even ignored his daughter. Seeing that the secret guards wanted to take him away by force, he himself He put the sword to his own neck, and then he messed up, giving the enemy an opening, and seriously injured them all."
Su Rong didn't know there was such an episode, and admired the affection between brothers. She once read the archives of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Although the Prime Minister Ye's Mansion was a high-ranking residence, the family was very harmonious. Prime Minister Ye did not have three wives or four concubines. There was only Mrs. Ye from beginning to end. This was very rare. At that time, it was still She was very surprised. The Ye family is a big family in Nanchu. The population is relatively prosperous, but not as good as the Nangong family. The Ye family seems to be prone to infatuated people, so the entire family, old and young, together, only has a few hundred people in the five servers. Most of them were scattered in various places. Therefore, when the entire Ye clan, represented by Ye Xiangfu, came out of the royal capital, it was only loaded in a few carriages, so that it did not appear to be lagging, and there were too many people, making it difficult to move. Unlike the Nangong family, there are about a thousand people in the five servers. Of course, most of them are scattered in various places, but the small number of people who stay in the royal capital are three or four times as many as the Ye Xiang Mansion. So, to put it another way, the Ye Xiang Mansion is not as powerful as the Nangong family, and it also has a lot of people.
