Quick Wear: After I captured the hero, I ran away with the ball

She seemed to be extremely heartbroken. She sent the imperial physician away and then called someone in: "You tell the emperor this news. Remember, don't mention the three children."

"Yes." The secret guard disappeared immediately.

Chi Yue looked at the thick darkness. The emperor could hardly save himself at this moment. He might not know that his good son had been captured.

But of course I can't tell him this news now. I have to wait until he is in the most pain.

Princess Jianning started to make a fuss again at night. In the past, the secret guards would just send her over directly, but now Jianning was pregnant, so they still came to ask Chi Yue for her opinion.

"Let those people pass through and be careful. If anything happens to the princess, they will all be buried with her."

However, no matter how careful those people were, they could not resist the princess's desperate pleading, and in the end Chi Yue had people separate them.

Because Jianning was pregnant, Chi Yue thought she had a good reason and placed her under house arrest in the princess's mansion. As for the seriously ill emperor, the same reason was naturally used.

The emperor was exhausted at this time. Seeing the affection between the two, his face brightened a little and he advised: "Jianning likes to play, you should keep an eye on her on weekdays."

"Yes."

After Chi Yue left, the emperor read the letter sent back by the prince as usual. Since the letter was delivered personally by the secret guard, the emperor did not suspect anything.

The letter said that after this great victory, the army would be able to return to the capital soon. As for Lu Yuan, he had been captured by the enemy, and the Yin State wanted to exchange Yicheng for Lu Yuan.

The emperor's expression relaxed a little and he put the memorial aside. Sure enough, when he went to court the next day, the emperor couldn't wait to bring up the matter.

"What do you think about Lu Yuan's matter?"

Everyone was shocked. Most of them had already joined Lu Yuan's army, but now they were suddenly told that their chief commander had been captured.

Some people were worried about whether Lu Yuan could survive, while others were afraid that they would be held accountable after Lu Yuan's death. After all, judging from the emperor's expression, he did not want to save Lu Yuan.

Chi Yue secretly observed them and silently assessed who could be used. Fortunately, when she was lobbying, they came one by one and they didn't know about each other.

After a while, a general rushed out indignantly: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask for your permission to go to the front line to rescue General Lu."

The emperor's face turned even uglier when he heard this, and everyone was even more frightened. In a flash, another civil official stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think it is the greatest honor for General Lu to sacrifice his life for the country."

He was this year's runner-up, the prince's man. Chi Yue glanced at him, and sure enough, the third place winner also stood up.

"I also think that General Lu would not be willing to exchange Yicheng for his life."

The two people spoke so nicely that the military officers on the side were furious. At this time, Master Yu finally stood up and everyone pricked up their ears.

"Your Majesty, I agree with what you two have said. As a vanguard, it is humiliating for Lu Yuan to be captured by the enemy. Rather than being cursed by the people after returning, it is better for him to die to preserve his reputation."

As soon as he spoke, officials quickly came out to agree with him, and even Chi Yue, who was closest to him, echoed a few words.

The emperor was obviously very satisfied with this scene. He coughed a few times and said, "Then I will follow your advice and let the prince continue to attack the Yin Kingdom."

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

After the morning court session, Chi Yue crossed out those who impeached Lu Yuan in the court. However, some of these people were capable and could be used but not trusted.

When the imperial edict reached the border, it had already been replaced by Lu Yuan on the way. There were still many of the prince's confidants in the camp. They were determined to stop Lu Yuan from moving forward and were anxiously waiting for the imperial edict.

At this time, they did not know that the imperial edict was not a life-saving straw, but a death warrant.

Yu Shu looked at the people who were still making noise and drew his sword: "Shut up, you guys won't live long enough to see the prince return."

"You are just a little girl, but you are lucky to be born into a good family. You have Master Yu to support you in the previous dynasty. If it weren't for Lu Yuan's military achievements, you would have died long ago."

Several close ministers did not take Yu Shu seriously at all, but the soldiers next to him were angry, because they had actually followed Yu Shu to the battlefield.

General Yu was no worse than the general except that he was a little unfamiliar with command. Moreover, it had only been a short period of time, but they could all see General Yu's progress.

Although they are men, none of them dares to say that they can fight better than the general. Now these people who are in the rear are slandering her every day.

Seeing that the camp was about to fall into chaos, Lu Yuan rushed back, exhausted: "Your Majesty's decree."

The close ministers who had been unforgiving just now immediately knelt down devoutly. They were already eager to ask His Majesty to teach Lu Yuan and his men a lesson.

"Your Highness, I have received your order—"

Lu Yuan opened the imperial edict bit by bit, and even Yu Shu became nervous, as it seemed that they were about to defeat the Yin Kingdom soon.

If that bastard prince hadn't insisted on taking his concubine to the front line to play, he wouldn't have been captured. In Yu Shu's opinion, he had it all his own fault.

"We should focus on Yicheng. I now order General Lu Yuan to be the marshal and Yu Shu to be the vanguard to continue attacking the Yin Kingdom. I decree this."

As soon as Lu Yuan finished reading, several close ministers stood up with trembling legs, saying, "Impossible, this is impossible. Your Majesty only has the Crown Prince. How could he possibly issue such an imperial decree?"

He pointed at Lu Yuan and said, "You changed the imperial edict on the road, didn't you? Falsely conveying the imperial edict is a capital crime!"

Yu Shu had been annoyed with these people for a long time, so he swung his sword and chopped off the hand of the person who was pointing at Lu Yuan.

When the other people saw this, they were so scared that they fell to the ground, calling for a doctor in panic.

Lu Yuan looked at him with a headache: "Tomorrow at 11:00 a.m., you will lead the team to attack from the rear, so you'd better prepare early."

After Yu Shu left, Lu Yuan sighed and dealt with the remaining trivial matters. He hadn't seen A Yue for more than two months and missed her.

On the second day, taking advantage of the darkness of the night, Lu Yuan led the army to attack from the front, and the remaining teams attacked from the left, right and rear respectively.

The war lasted for two days before the Yin State was driven out of the Yong Dynasty's territory. Lu Yuan was covered in blood at this time and could no longer tell whether it was his or the enemy's.

Even Yu Shu came back with a sword stuck in his body, but fortunately the wound was not fatal and he was treated by a doctor.

After two or three days of rest, Lu Yuan finally had time to write a letter to Chi Yue and send it back, telling her that she could start preparing.

The emperor received another secret report from the prince: Lu Yuan was dead.

He held the note in his hand with doubt in his heart, but his body was beginning to fail, so he could only write back and ask the prince to return to the court as soon as possible.
