Chapter 653 You dare to watch the prince act like a spoiled child? Are you trying to kill yourself?
Seeing the confusion on Shu He's face, he simply ignored Baili Moqing's expression and continued speaking.
"The Chengfeng Army has actually been in place for a long time and should be able to provide support at any time. However, the Fourth Prince has learned of the Chengfeng Army's whereabouts and, who knows where, has obtained some explosives... the same destructive weapon you and the prince encountered last time at Mingguo Temple!"
"They used that thing against the Chengfeng Army. If it weren't for the prince who disregarded his own safety and single-handedly withstood the impact of the explosion, I'm afraid the scene would be even more tragic now!"
"And the Chengfeng Army will also suffer countless casualties!"
Shu He was shocked. Another dynamite?
Could it be that person from last time? But isn't he the Eighth Prince's man? Why would he be in contact with the Fourth Prince again?
What is his identity?
Seeing that she remained silent, Xi Zhu continued, "Not only that, a large number of troops have been ambushed at the foot of Jingshan Mountain. They are all masters of martial arts! They have also taken some of the people living at the foot of the mountain as hostages, with the intention of delaying us."
"In the end, it was the prince who tried every possible means to rescue those people safely!"
"We didn't expect the Fourth Prince to take action so early..."
"The prince was injured! When the explosives exploded, he spat out a lot of blood and almost..."
Xi Zhu's expression and tone were a bit exaggerated, but Shu He knew that even if Xi Zhu was suspected of exaggeration, Baili Moqing's injury should be true.
Her eyes changed slightly, and she couldn't help but reach out, pull his hand over, and take his pulse.
His pulse was fine, but his internal energy was indeed damaged and his internal organs had suffered severe impact. Fortunately, his internal strength was strong and protected his five internal organs. Otherwise, if it were someone else, I'm afraid all his internal organs would be shattered!
"Why didn't you tell me you were injured?"
She looked at him unhappily and suddenly felt that she had no conscience.
He had tried his best to rush to save them, but she still blamed him for not coming early enough...
Baili Moqing's eyebrows softened, with a hint of grievance in his eyes. "It's not a serious injury, I'm not that pretentious."
She is a soft-hearted person, and the saying "soft-hearted but not hard-hearted" is perfectly embodied in her.
There was less resentment towards him in her eyes, and more heartache and guilt.
He held her hand, sincerely reflecting and apologizing, "I didn't think things through last night. I didn't expect the Fourth Brother to be connected with Beidi, nor did I expect that the Fourth Brother also had many experts hidden around him."
Shu He was shocked.
Beidi?
Could it really be Shen Chuan?
Baili Moqing laughed at himself, "I thought I was smart, but I forgot that the fourth brother is not stupid either."
When they reached a cooperation in Tongle Hall, the fourth brother should have known his purpose.
So he made a careful response plan for his arrangement, which led to the fierceness of this battle.
After listening to it, Shu He only felt helpless.
She sighed softly, "Maybe it's fate!"
"There's no such thing as a 'foolproof' plan in this world. After doing everything humanly possible, all that remains is 'the rest of the world's fate.'"
So, what right did she have to blame Baili Moqing for coming late?
She had always felt that he was a god in heaven, omnipotent, but she had forgotten that he was just an ordinary person, prone to mistakes, injuries, sadness, and self-blame...
The battlefield outside the camp was almost cleared, leaving only a large area of shocking blood-red soil.
At this time, Zhenli and Beiji came over with a woman.
When Shu He saw the woman, he recognized her the moment she appeared.
Half a year ago in Beisha City, she had seen her once in the Aid to the North Camp. At that time, she was dressed as a man and often appeared behind Zhenli.
So, this is the Poison King’s disciple that Baili Moqing told her about, whom he once pretended to be: Yi Meir?
It is said that she chased Zhenli across most of Apocalypse before finding him in Beisha City.
It seems that a lot has happened between them in the past six months.
Yi Meir also recognized her and nodded politely to her.
Shu He nodded in response, and then her eyes involuntarily fell on Bei Ji behind her.
He had lost a lot of weight, but his figure and temperament were more resolute and cold than before, and he seemed no longer so gentle.
He lowered his eyes and walked to Nanqi's side with a calm expression on his face.
Baili Moqing noticed Shu He's absent-mindedness, and his chest felt a little sore. He grabbed her waist as if possessed by a ghost, and said in a slightly coquettish tone, "I feel a little stuffy, let me see!"
The moment their bodies touched, she was a little flustered and guilty, and subconsciously pushed Baili Moqing away, but his hands, like steel, clamped her and prevented her from escaping.
"Someone!"
She glared at him unhappily, but his eyes instantly became aggrieved and full of resentment, like a wronged young wife.
Seeing this, Zhenli quickly glanced at Nanqi and others beside him, then turned and left.
You dare to watch the prince act like a spoiled child? Are you trying to kill yourself?
Shu He stopped struggling only after everyone had left.
She was speechless. Was this man doing it on purpose?
Baili Moqing: Yes, I did it on purpose!
The royal hunting team returned to the capital ahead of schedule. Many families of the accompanying officials above the fourth rank suffered casualties of varying degrees, and some even had their entire families wiped out.
When this matter reached Kyoto, it caused an uproar. The entire capital, and even the entire Apocalypse, were talking about it.
But within two days, the imperial court issued a ban, from now on, no one was allowed to mention the Fourth Prince's rebellion again. Anyone who violated the order would be imprisoned for three years, and if it caused serious consequences, he would be killed!
This scene is extremely familiar.
At the same time, in order to stabilize people's hearts, Emperor Qiwen gave generous compensation to the families of officials who were injured or killed, and gave varying degrees of rewards to those who had made contributions to protecting the emperor.
It is worth mentioning that after Jingshan returned to the palace, the emperor made an exception and opened a channel for women to join the army. At the same time, he appointed Shu He as the commander of the first women's army of Tianqi, General Zhenhe!
Zhang Zhirou and Yi Meir were his left and right deputy generals.
Two days later, Emperor Qiwen issued another decree to hold a grand wedding for Prince Zhao and Princess Zi Yan, and the wedding date was moved up to three days later.
At the same time, the Prince Li's Mansion also received an imperial decree. After Prince Zhao married Princess Zi Yan, he allowed Prince Li and Shu He to marry.
The two couples' weddings were held only five days apart.
Ten days have passed since the Fourth Prince's rebellion.
The royal family deliberately suppressed the news of this matter, and there were also several explosive imperial edicts. Therefore, the incident of Prince Jin's rebellion that shocked the world was quickly forgotten.
The topic of discussion in the streets of Kyoto was the marriage between the Eighth Prince, who had just been crowned King of Zhao, and the extremely favored Prince Li.
At Prince Li's Mansion, Shu He stood up from his chair in surprise.
"What did you say? Fu Qingrong set herself on fire, her life hanging by a thread?"
