Chapter 19: The Princess and the Sword

Lin Huiye didn't remember how he walked back to the camp with Zhao Huanghe.She only remembered that Zhao Huanghe was talking to herself one after another, standing in the night only two steps away from her.Her voice is low, not as thin and weak as ordinary women.Lin Huiye liked that sound, and engraved it in the river of memory.

"Your Highness, rest well." Time passed quickly, and when Lin Huiye regained consciousness, he had already walked to the door of his tent.

"Yes." Lin Huiye nodded and walked towards his tent.But after taking two steps, he suddenly turned around.Seeing Zhao Huanghe still standing in the moonlight, looking at him, he asked. "Aren't you... not going back?"

"Go back." Zhao Huanghe smiled when he saw Lin Huiye turning his head. "After you go in, I'll go."

Hearing what Zhao Huanghe said, Lin Huiye didn't say anything, just walked into the tent alone.She sat on the bed for a while, only to feel that her cheeks were hot and her heart was beating wildly.There was a feeling of desire rushing out from the bottom of her heart, and she couldn't restrain it no matter what.

Lin Huiye felt that she couldn't continue to sit where she was, so she stood up, walked quickly towards the outside of the tent, and finally ran instead.However, when she lifted the curtain, she only saw the moonlight left on the ground.

It was rare for Lin Hengzhi to find that the usually cold and rigorous imperial girl was distracted.She always leaned against the window of the carriage and looked into the ranks of soldiers beside her, but she didn't know what she was looking at.Later, he discovered that Lin Huiye was watching not only when the army was marching, but also when they were resting, and watched seriously.

"Hui Ye, what are you looking at?" When the army camped for a rest, Lin Hengzhi saw Lin Huiye's distracted appearance again, and finally couldn't help but sat beside her and asked.

"I'm looking for someone, she's wearing a soldier's armor." Lin Huiye said. "But I can't find it anywhere."

"Oh? My imperial sister is actually looking for someone in the ranks of soldiers." Hearing Lin Huiye said that he was looking for someone, Lin Hengzhi became interested and asked. "What kind of person?"

"A very strong person." Lin Huiye said.

"Let Brother Huang listen to you so that I can promote him." Lin Hengzhi knew that Lin Huiye never praised anyone easily since he was a child.If she said she was strong, she was really strong.

Seeing that Lin Huiye seemed to be thinking, his long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he spoke after a while.

"She's a woman."

Lin Hengzhi couldn't react when he heard the word "woman" at first. After thinking about it, he didn't remember that female soldiers were used in this expedition, and they were very strong female soldiers.But Lin Huiye's next sentence made him suddenly realize.

"It's called Zhao Huanghe."

"Prince sister, she is not a soldier." Lin Hengzhi smiled. "She is an important figure in this expedition."

"An important person?" Lin Huiye looked sideways at Lin Hengzhi.

"It's no wonder you don't know, my sister, that my father never lets you and Han Yu interfere in government matters." Seeing that Lin Huiye was listening seriously, Lin Hengzhi continued. "Zhao Huanghe is a celebrity single-handedly promoted by General Zhenwei. She has rarely lost a battle since she fought on the battlefield, and her father also likes her very much. But don't look at her, even though she is a woman, she is also a well-known iron-blooded general. "

"General...?"

"Yes." Lin Heng said. "Zhao Huanghe, General Zhao."

When resting, Zhao Huanghe is always the focus of the crowd.She doesn't have a cold face like other generals, but prefers to stay with the soldiers.The soldiers who were closer to her didn't even call her General, but directly called her Huanghe.

Of course, the soldiers who have followed Zhao Huanghe all year round also know one thing clearly, that is, the generals on and off the battlefield are completely different people.

Lin Huiye randomly grabbed a soldier and asked Zhao Huanghe's whereabouts. The soldier didn't know where Zhao Huanghe was, but told Lin Huiye to go to the place where the most people gathered.Lin Huiye didn't understand at first, but when she actually found Zhao Huanghe, she understood what the little soldier meant.

I saw Zhao Huanghe sitting on a big rock with her sleeves rolled up, she stepped on the rock with one leg curled up, standing arrogantly in the middle of a group of soldiers, smiling flamboyantly.

At that moment, Lin Huiye's heart began to beat faster again, as if looking at her smile could bathe in sunshine.

"The princess is coming down!"

At this time, someone saw Lin Huiye and shouted loudly.

"That's Her Royal Highness!"

"Why did Her Royal Highness come here..."

The crowd went from initial surprise to excitement to surrender at the end, but Lin Huiye stood still.She saw that the messy soldiers all knelt down in the end, but Zhao Huanghe still kept his original posture sitting on the rock, looking abrupt.

Lin Huiye only listened to her.

"His Royal Highness, you are welcome to visit Huanghe's tent."

In the next few days, Lin Huiye would go to find Zhao Minghe, but he didn't do anything special when he went. He just sat quietly beside Zhao Minghe, occasionally chatting with the soldiers.Although Lin Huiye didn't talk much, after a long time, everyone became familiar with her.There were more and more soldiers surrounding the two, sometimes even doubling in size, and even the soldiers in the distant camp were looking at the princess.

"His Royal Highness is so charming." Zhao Minghe smiled when he saw soldiers jumping and looking in from outside the crowd.

"It's because they've never seen such a public princess like me." Lin Huiye didn't take it seriously, took a sip of the dry food Zhao Minghe handed over.

"Be careful of choking." Seeing that Lin Huiye ate little and chewed slowly, Zhao Minghe hurriedly handed water to her.

Lin Huiye looked at Zhao Minghe's water bag for a while, and finally took a sip carefully from the mouth of the bag.

After the crowd dispersed, Zhao Minghe asked.

"Do you like being with them too?"

"They are all soldiers of my Pan Dynasty. I think this can also boost their morale and make them feel that the prince and princess are with them." Lin Huiye replied, and then looked at Zhao Minghe beside him. "I just like being with you."

"Many people like to stay with me." Zhao Minghe continued smoothly.

"Well, I know." However, Lin Huiye was not angry when he heard it, but just smiled faintly. "You are like sunshine."

Looking at her smile, Zhao Minghe had an illusion of weakness for a moment.She observed Lin Huiye carefully and asked.

"Are...are you sick?"

"A little fever. It will be fine in a few days." Lin Huiye didn't shy away from it, so he just answered.

"What are you doing here when you have a fever?" Seeing that Lin Huiye didn't seem to cherish his body, Zhao Minghe frowned.

"I don't know either." Lin Huiye replied, after thinking about it, she said again. "Maybe just to see you."

"Go back and rest, it's windy and sandy outside." Zhao Minghe stood up, stretched out a hand towards Lin Huiye, and said. "I'll take you back."

"En." Lin Huiye took Zhao Minghe's hand to stand up, but when he got up, he suddenly felt dizzy and fell straight down.

"Hui Ye!"

In the middle of the night, Lin Jieyu suddenly sat up from the bed and was panting profusely with cold sweat.She looked around herself, the place where Lin Huiye was sleeping was empty and lonely.Lin Jieyu tried hard to recall the dream she had just now, but she couldn't remember anything except Lin Huiye's leaving back.

Lin Jieyu slept in the bed, unfolded Lin Huiye's quilt and got in, and was instantly enveloped by Lin Huiye's breath.The drowsiness came slowly, and when she was in a trance, she murmured.

"Kaguya...you are outside, are you okay? When...will you come back."

Lin Huiye felt dizzy, she opened her eyes reluctantly and looked around, and found that this was her tent.And in this tent is not only himself, but also Zhao Minghe.

"Are you awake? How do you feel?" Seeing Lin Huiye waking up, Zhao Minghe approached her and asked.

"It's okay." Lin Huiye replied, reluctantly.

"Get up and have some porridge. I just had the military doctor come to see it. If you take the medicine on time, you will be fine in a few days." Zhao Minghe brought the porridge in front of Lin Huiye, and said.

"I can't drink it." Lin Huiye glanced at the porridge and the medicine bowl in disgust, turned over to the bed, and said with his back to Zhao Minghe. "You go back first."

"I'm not going back tonight." Seeing Lin Huiye's stubborn appearance, Zhao Minghe simply lay down on the bed and slept beside Lin Huiye.

"You..." Lin Huiye didn't know whether it was because of the fever or what, his cheeks were flushed.

"I'll stay here until you want to take medicine." Zhao Minghe smiled.

"Then you... just stay here forever." Lin Huiye also smiled, she stretched out her hand to grab Zhao Minghe's side hand, and interlocked her fingers. "Stay with me."

Zhao Minghe remembered that Lin Huiye said a lot that night, from the time when her mother and concubine passed away when she was a child, until she left the palace.Talk to yourself about all the little things.At first Zhao Minghe was able to perfunctory a few sentences, but later he was so sleepy that he simply fell asleep.Lin Huiye looked at Zhao Minghe's sleeping face and smiled.

She held Zhao Minghe's hand tightly, and murmured: "Minghe... When I feel bad, I really want to talk... I can talk about everything... I want to forget that I am suffering..."

Lin Huiye still stubbornly refused to take any medicine, and sat in the carriage in a daze, following the army.Within a few days, they arrived at Xidi, which was occupied by the Chi Kingdom.In a daze, Lin Huiye learned from the person who took care of him that Panchao and Chiguo had fought several times, with more defeats than victories, so he fell asleep again.Seeing the sickly look of the princess, everyone felt depressed, and feared that one day this delicate princess would just go away like this.

However, on the morning of the tenth day, Lin Huiye finally woke up.The little soldier who took care of her was startled, and hurried to ask for a military doctor, fearing that the light would come back.After the military doctor made the diagnosis, he smiled and said that the princess had overcome the hurdle of fever and recovered from her illness.Lin Hengzhi was overjoyed when he got the news, and hurried over to see her.

"Hui Ye, are you trying to scare the emperor to death?" Seeing Lin Huiye sitting there, Lin Hengzhi heaved a sigh of relief.

"I made Brother Huang worry." Lin Huiye smiled.

"Brother Huang knows that your mother and concubine were given medicine...but you can't stop taking a sip of medicine from then on...just in case something goes wrong..."

"I know." Lin Huiye said, and then asked. "Where's Minghe?"

"General Zhenwei was defeated last night. General Zhao and other generals are waiting outside the tent." Hearing Lin Huiye ask Zhao Minghe, Lin Hengzhi sighed. "In the past few days, they have been exhausted and hardly slept much."

"Why did you lose the battle again?"

"The city of Xidi is dangerous, easy to defend but difficult to attack." Lin Hengzhi frowned. "Besides, they have plenty of supplies in the rear, we..."

"Easy to defend but hard to attack?" Hearing what Lin Hengzhi said, Lin Huiye pondered for a while, then said. "Since Brother Huang and Zhenwei can't attack, then... let me attack."
