Chapter 72

Only some remnants and defeated generals escaped. "Wei Zheng's face burst into a proud radiance, but only for a moment, it dimmed again, "But at that time, we ourselves suffered heavy casualties, our military strength was critical, and we had to rest where we were when we were exhausted. "

"At this time, the young commander-in-chief has already sensed that something is wrong, because the responding Nie Feng has never appeared. Juehun Valley and North Valley are only separated by a cliff. It wouldn’t be so slow. So the young marshal ordered me to go to Nangu to contact the main battalion to find out why.”

"Who would have thought that Xie Yu and Xia Jiang's [-] troops would have arrived just before I entered the tent..."

With a "slap", Prince Jing broke off a corner of the hard pear-wood kang table, and sawdust fell down.It was also the first time Meng Zhi heard these details, his heart was agitated, he gritted his teeth and looked back at Mei Changsu, only to see him sitting in a corner expressionlessly, with his head slightly raised, motionless, as if he had solidified into a Inanimate silhouette.

"When we first saw them, we thought...we actually thought...they were reinforcements..." The grief and desolation in Wei Zheng's voice was enough to break the hardest heart in the world. He raised his head and straightened Looking at King Jing anxiously, "The ending...Your Highness already knows, Nangu was reduced to Shura Hell, and Beigu...was burned into a piece of scorched earth. The brothers who survived the battle with the fiercest imperial army in Dayu They eventually fell into the hands of their allies."

"Many people didn't understand what happened when they were dying. I tried my best to rush to Lin Shuai's side, but he was already seriously injured. His last sentence was to let us escape, and the one who survived counted as one." I don't know how cold and painful it was in his heart at that time. Fortunately, he left without seeing the thick smoke rising from the North Valley..."

"None of his generals and his personal soldiers left him, even if they guarded a corpse in the end. But I can't. My main general is Lin Shu. I want to rush back to Beigu, but I can't kill him." There were too many ground butcher knives, I only fell halfway through the charge. When I woke up, I was saved by my adoptive father Su Gu..."

King Jing gritted his teeth and endured it, finally couldn't help but buried his hands in his palms, Meng Zhi also turned his head and wiped away the hot tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingers, Lie Zhanying was already crying like rain.Only Mei Changsu still maintained the original posture, looking at the rough stone wall with dark eyes.

Prince Jing lowered his head and remained silent for a long time. Finally, he asked a question he had already asked: "Wei Zheng, Bei Gu...are there really no survivors?"

Wei Zheng avoided his sight and said in a low voice, "I haven't heard of it..."

Although he knew in his heart that there was little hope, after hearing Wei Zheng's answer, Xiao Jingyan still couldn't help but feel pain in his heart.His friend, the friend who rolled and fought with him since he was a child, and practiced literature and martial arts together.That friend who is always arrogant and shows off, but in fact is the most considerate and considerate friend, the one who is riding a horse and holding a gun.The friend who gave his life to him on the battlefield, the friend who laughed and asked him to bring the pearl back before leaving.There is really no coming back...

The pearl that Nanhai personally picked was still lying cold and lonely in the depths of the suitcase next to the bed.But the young general who was originally destined to be its owner didn't even know where the bones were scattered. Thirteen years have passed, and the souls of the dead have not been safe, and the stigma has not yet been settled.Even now that he has been blessed with seven jewels and is extremely glorious, what's the point? !

"Your Highness, please don't be impatient." Mei Changsu's voice came softly at this moment, "This case was decided by His Majesty, and it involves many things. We can only temporarily suppress grief and anger. Take it slowly. As long as your goal is firm and your determination is unwavering, you can stabilize your strength step by step. But why not worry about it?"

"Yes," Meng Zhi now stabilized a little.Advised in a low voice. "To reverse the case, His Majesty must first admit his mistake. But this mistake is too great. Even if His Majesty believes it, he may not admit it. Besides, Wei Zheng is now a criminal. Will his words have any effect, and will he have the opportunity to put these things to rest?" The words announced above the court are all unknowns. Your Highness must not rush in now."

"This case is not the case of Chi Yanjun's family," Mei Changsu said quietly. "More importantly, there is the blood of the eldest son of the emperor in it. If you want His Majesty to reverse the case, it is tantamount to getting him to agree to write it down in the history books of later generations." , leaving the stigma of unjustly killing heroes and parents and children. Don’t say kings and emperors, as long as they are men, who doesn’t care about the name behind them? If His Royal Highness Prince Jing wants to achieve his final goal, he must absolutely not propose a retrial of Chi Yan’s case at this time .”

"I understand Mr. Su's words." Prince Jing raised his head, his eyes were red, and his face was as pale as snow, "But I also want to remind Mr. Su that my final goal is the case of Pingxue. For the rest, I can wait for the time being. .”

Mei Changsu looked back at him for a long time, then smiled faintly, "Yes, Su will remember."

Backstory

It was already late at night when Wanxiu and Li Qiao got into an argument.Li Qiao's martial arts were much better than Wanxiu's, and it happened that Wanxiu was pregnant again, so naturally she was not awakened by someone like Li Qiao who had experienced battles, and she fell asleep again after gently coaxing her.After covering his daughter-in-law with a quilt, when Li Qiao went out with his coat on, he saw Wan Ning standing on the porch.

"A-Ning? Why didn't you accompany His Highness?" Seeing Wan Ning, Li Qiao was also rather strange.Different from Wanxiu, when Jing Han asked about their future plans at their age, Wanxiu chose to get married, while Wanning resolutely stayed in the palace and continued to be a grand maid. Now she has succeeded Zeng Wanxiu's seat, became the person in charge of Fusheng Pavilion.

"His Highness has been drinking since he came back in the evening, and it's been almost two hours (four hours) now! When he went back and forth to northern Xinjiang, the wounds left by the assassination of the inner prison caused his highness to relapse. How long has it been! I'm worried that His Highness will cause old injuries again if he drinks like this! But he won't listen to any persuasion!" Wan Ning stomped her feet impatiently.

"Drink two things?" Li Qiao couldn't believe it, "Your Highness has always had good self-control, how could it be?"

"How do I know, but His Highness asked me if he really did something wrong, and I don't know how to answer! The only thing that can make His Highness worry so much is Chi Yan's death. It's just An Guifei's death. Concubine, I wasn't with His Highness at the time, and I didn't know as much about Chi Yan's case as you and Sister Xiu, so this is the only way..."

"Ayou, let's go!" It was Wanxiu from the inner room who spoke softly, "Since Your Highness knew that Master Lin Shu had returned, he has been pressing on this matter in his heart! I'm afraid he heard something now. That's why she lost her composure!" Saying that, Wanxiu came out wearing a coat.

"Back then, the Chiyan case was completely handled, and now you and I are the only ones left. If you don't go, who else can go!" Wanxiu looked at her husband who came up automatically and put on a coat for herself, and pressed the button. The opponent's hand, "This matter is not considered to be His Highness's fault, but His Highness is not without fault, you just need to tell His Highness frankly!"

"Is this really okay?" Li Qiao was a little worried.

"Our Highness knows better than anyone else. If you go at this time, you may just be a listener! But I remember that the princess stayed in the general's mansion today to prepare for the wedding after the spring hunt, right? All these years The princess has a lot of misunderstandings about His Royal Highness, and the left and right Highnesses are not in a good mood and don’t care about the people around them, so invite them together!" Wanxiu smiled and shook her head, "Hurry up, it’s getting late at night, Ah Ning Come and sleep with me!"

While talking, he dragged Wan Ning into the inner room involuntarily.Li Qiao looked at his hand that was still slightly warm and smiled, went to the study, got a dress and put it on hastily, then took some pastries from the kitchen, stood up and disappeared into the vast night middle.

As Wan Ning said, when Li Qiao found Jing Han, he was sitting on the roof drinking, and the two unsealed jars beside him had been smashed to pieces on the ground. How many are there.Li Qiao sighed, knowing why Wan Ning was in such a hurry.

"Your Highness, drinking on an empty stomach is not good for your health!" Leaping up and sitting between Jing Han and the wine jar, Li Qiao handed over the pastry in his hand, "If Miss Qu knows that you don't care about your body, I'm afraid I'm about to start swearing!" As he said, he praised his wit.

"Little girl..." Jing Han glanced at the person beside him, his voice a little hoarse from the stimulation of the alcohol.

"Did your Highness hear anything tonight?" Li Qiao watched as Jing Han took the pastry, smiled and put the box beside him.

"Well, after hearing the speeches of the parties involved in the Chi Yan case, do you think you heard something?" Jing Han's eyes were a little dazed, probably because the person sitting next to him was someone who had been following him since the very beginning and had witnessed his downfall His rise, his sadness, his success and fame, so there is no hiding in his eyes.

"Wei Zheng? Is Your Highness hurting God for the Red Flame Army? It's not like His Highness's usual style." Li Qiao smiled.

"Sometimes I feel that it's good to know nothing!" Jing Han lowered his eyes, "That's really good..."

"Wei Zheng said that the Red Flame Army fought against the 20 Imperial Army of Dayu for three days and three nights, only to be surrounded by Xia Jiang and Xie Yu's troops when they turned around. Back then, Meiling was covered with snow, blood dripping into ice!" Han Han recounted Wei Zheng's words in a calm voice, "At that time, the resentment in his words was obvious."

"It's weird, isn't it, obviously I haven't heard less about things from other people over the years
