"Sister."
Jiang Xingjian hugged Jiang Man gently, her eyes blood red. But the man in his arms was in a miserable state, his face was bruised and swollen, and he couldn't even see where his facial features were.
His sister had been aloof and aloof all her life, had she ever looked like this?
Jiang Xingjian felt that his stomach was burning with hatred, and he wished he could return to the capital immediately and kill Emperor Wen Hui in the nine palaces, so that the world could see the color of his heart.
The man's sad and forbearing cry rang out, and the Dongning soldiers couldn't help but feel resentful when they saw this.
From what Princess Nanqing said, these people were simply pushed out by Emperor Wen Hui and sacrificed in vain.
Although they have military status, some of them are from merchants or scholarly families.
Just because they are men, they are afraid that they will not be able to serve the country with their blood, so they join the army in order to one day be able to fight Nan Qing openly.
The moment they set out for Beijing, they were ready to bury their bones in a desolate place, with red sand covering their iron clothes.
But they can and dare to die, but they cannot give in to such ridiculous reasons!
The soldiers who followed Shen Qianyu grabbed their weapons one by one, angry but powerless.
After learning martial arts, he became a member of the emperor's family.
They have nowhere to complain or regret!
Shen Qianyu turned around and saw the word "absurdity" written on the faces of everyone behind him.
He gritted his teeth, even though he had a lot of words in his heart, he couldn't say a word.
After a long time, he said solemnly: "I will live and die with you."
"If we want to fight, I must be on the front line. If we want to die, I must sacrifice my royal blood to General Dongning first."
Shen Qianyu straightened his head and walked back to the military camp.
In the central military tent, his face was blue and black, his eyes were lowered and he was silent. Outside the tent, there was the rustling sound of Dongning soldiers talking.
He couldn't hear clearly, but he could guess nine out of ten.
Wan Xiao said: "Qin Rao kept Concubine Jiang alive for this reason. In the past, he underestimated her."
Shen Qianyu wiped his face and whispered: "Tomorrow..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a commotion outside the tent. The two walked out of the tent and saw Jiang Xingjian holding a spear, stabbing Cui Chengdong to death in front of the camp.
"A person who helps Zhou to commit cruelty is not worthy of being my Dongning man."
Warm blood spattered on Jiang Xingjian's face, and his eyes were as scarlet as an evil spirit seeking life, but no one in the entire camp said a word to stop him.
Cui Chengdong, damn it!
Seeing Shen Qianyu leaving the camp, Jiang Xingjian dropped his spear, lifted up his clothes, knelt down and said, "I disobey military orders, so I should..."
Shen Qianyu waved his hand: "I have said that Cui Chengdong has his own reasons for dying."
Now that the military's morale is unstable, he and Jiang Xingjian can no longer cause internal chaos.
Shen Qianyu said in a cold voice: "It is my responsibility and my heart's wish to protect the family and the country, protect the women and children of Dongning, and keep the peace of this place. Secretly sending the imperial concubine to the enemy country for abuse, and it will be the loss of thousands of men in Dongning." The character and character are cold to the hearts of all people in the world. Cui Chengdong died unjustly."
The general in the camp said: "Guard our Dongning rivers and mountains, and protect our Dongning people. We will die without regrets, but we cannot come and die because of... cowardice."
"I know."
Shen Qianyu felt bitter in his mouth, but he was unable to promise anything more.
The generals also knew about his difficulties, but no one said anything, but a sense of depression permeated the Dongning army.
Resentment, resentment and hatred linger in everyone's heart.
Not to mention that Nanqing has strong soldiers and horses, and seven thousand elites are facing a thousand Shenshu camp. Even if Dongning now has ten thousand people, they may not be able to withstand Nanqing's attack.
Shen Qianyu returned to the tent and called Wan Xiao and Jiang Xingjian in.
"How is Concubine Jiang?"
Jiang Xingjian pursed her lips and said nothing, but the blood red in her eyes revealed a hint of despair.
Wan Xiao said: "There are medical practitioners in the army... they are very proficient in trauma."
There was no confidence in what he said. Jiang Xingjian clenched his cheeks and wanted to say something, but in the end he just fell silent.
The three of them were preparing to discuss how to deal with Nanqing tomorrow, but suddenly someone came to report that a letter had been delivered to Dongchang, and the messenger wanted to deliver it to the prince personally. Wan Xiao asked people to enter the account, and Shen Qianyu took the secret letter and opened it.
He glanced quickly, then frowned.
"Qin Zhan died in Nanqing's palace half a month ago."
Wan Xiao raised her eyebrows: "What about Prince Ning and Mrs. Graceful Man?"
"Prince Ning has ascended the throne, but Mrs. Grace's whereabouts are unknown, and she does not know whether she is dead or alive."
Shen Qianyu gritted his teeth: "King Ning is very ambitious and has always been eyeing Dongning. If he knows that all the troops of Suhe Dusi have been withdrawn, he will definitely take this opportunity to capture Suncheng and Chiyang."
"The battle at Suhe must be fought quickly. No one from Qin Rao and his entourage can be sent back to Nanqing!"
Jiang Xingjian looked up at Shen Qianyu, then quickly looked away.
"I am going to Xinjingzhong. This matter is urgent and should not be delayed."
Wan Xiao shook his head: "If His Majesty decides to bury this matter, His Highness may find it difficult to spread the news."
No matter how timid and cowardly Emperor Wen Hui was, he was still the supreme king. If he wanted to, it would be easy to seal off the capital and prevent all news from entering the capital.
“Always try.”
"We may be able to resist Qin Rao's men even if we risk our lives, but if King Ning knows the news about Suhe, he will be able to lead the attack into Guanzhong in less than half a month, and it will only take a few days to take him down to the capital."
"I want to inform the important ministers of the court about the news about Suhe."
At least, if he really can't resist, someone will have to succeed him to resist the foreign enemies, so as not to surrender the entire Dongning!
"Wei Chen has a way to spread the news to Beijing."
Jiang Xingjian said: "In the Weichen Mansion..."
He paused for a moment, then lowered his eyes and said, "There is a concubine who once taught me a secret. No one in the world knows it except me."
Jiang Xingjian found some pen and ink and quickly wrote down a few symbols with unknown meanings.
"Your Highness can write down the message and send it to the capital through the ministers."
Without hesitation or doubt, Shen Qianyu quickly wrote a few words on the paper and handed it to Jiang Xingjian.
The current situation is no longer suitable for us to be suspicious of each other, and Jiang Xingjian will not regard the entire Dongning as child's play.
After taking the letter, Jiang Xingjian turned and returned to his tent.
After a night passed, he rubbed the necessary words on the cloth and handed it to Shen Qianyu's cronies to rush back to the capital.
After all this was done, Jiang Xingjian walked to the bed to visit Jiang Man.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Man had already woken up and was looking at the top of the tent with squinted eyes.
Her eyes were swollen and it was difficult to open them. Jiang Xingjian looked at the sister who treated him the best in his memory, and finally couldn't help crying. If he had known that the meeting would be like today, he would have comforted her in the palace that day and had a good talk with her, instead of being angry with her because Song Wan entered the palace.
At this moment, he realizes that life and death are no big deal.
His elder sister is the most noble and noble, and she encountered this difficulty...
Jiang Xingjian didn't dare to think about it anymore, and knelt on the ground and cried sadly.
"Why are you crying?"
Jiang Man spoke calmly, with disdain in his tone.
"Come here, I have something important to tell you, related to my father."
