Marry Under Order, Hot Tempered Queen - C188
Hua Mujiao never thought that this so called Crown Prince of the State of Heaven would actually be such a crazy person.
Pushing a pond was nothing, but from Nangong Yao’s mouth, with the burning hot metal barrel and the silver needles stabbing his meridians, could this crown prince really do such a thing that was worse than an animal?
If it was anyone else who treated the person she cared about this way, she would probably lose control and directly sentence that person to death. Even if it was Ling Chi, he might not be able to vent her anger.
“Bastard.”
While thinking, Hua Mujie cursed in a low voice.
On the other side, Bai Zhan Ke looked at her empathetic expression, and his expression turned a little darker.
“It’s getting late. Let’s go back.”
Hua Mujiao did not intend to keep watching. She nodded and returned to the camp with Bai Zhan.
The next day, the news of the crown prince’s tragic death in the army camp of the Huan Yue Kingdom spread to everyone’s ears, including the soldiers of the enemy kingdom.
“General, this general believes that the Crown Prince deserves to die. We don’t need to start a war just for him. It’s not worth it for our soldiers.”
“Vice General, what are you saying? The fact that the Huan Yue Country has harmed my country’s crown prince is a clear provocation, and clearly means that they look down on our soldiers. If we don’t attack, then wouldn’t that mean we’re being looked down upon by the enemy? ”
Within the great tent of the Sunshine Kingdom, the various deputy commanders and generals were quarreling.
Even though they were arguing enthusiastically, Nangong Yao who was in the main seat only rubbed his forehead, not saying a word.
“Don’t you know what kind of person the crown prince is? “Countless innocent lives have been lost to his hands. Why should we attack before we have even formulated a strategy for him? Aren’t we just sending our soldiers to their deaths for nothing!”
“That is true, but even if he is unforgivable, he is still the crown prince of our Tian Guang Kingdom, the future ruler of our kingdom. Even if we do not rashly attack, will the emperor be like a cicada when he learns of this?”
“Yeah, we’ll be at war sooner or later anyway. Why not make use of this time to let the people of Huan Yue know that we, Tian Guang Kingdom, are not that easy to mess with?”
“…”
The ruckus grew increasingly intense, but from their words, one could tell that no one felt anger and regret for the crown prince. Most of them simply felt that they couldn’t let the Huan Yue country look down on them.
However, this crown prince of the Skylaurel Kingdom had not left a good impression on anyone.
“Shut up!”
At this time, Nangong Yao opened his mouth.
After he finished speaking, everyone who was quarreling shut their mouths.
“Vice General, send someone to deliver this message back to the palace. Wait for the emperor’s order.”
Nangong Yao did not call the king of the Heavenly Light Nation his father. Just by calling him ‘Your Majesty’, one could tell how much he hated him.
Seven days later, the Emperor’s decree arrived at the army camp. The majority of the decree was about Nangong Yao being dissatisfied, calling him trash, and the decree at the end of the decree was to immediately attack the Huan Yue country and take its head.
The next day, the long-lasting conflict between the two armies was broken. The Tian Guang Kingdom launched an attack first, and the two countries went to war …
Smoke rose up from the battlefield, along with shouts and cries of battle.
Hua Mujiao was clear that this was a battle that had been decided upon between Bai Zhanji and the First Prince of the Skylaurel Kingdom. Only they knew who had won and who had lost.
However, for some reason, her heart felt uncomfortable.
On the beacon platform, Hua Mujiao stared at the two armies battling in the distance, her brows furrowed. Just looking at the corpses on the ground was enough to make one’s heart clench.
“Just take the guqin.”
He could not understand why Hua Mujiao would ask him to get the zither at this time, but he did not ask. He only received the order to turn around and get the zither.
“Empress, this war is unavoidable.”
To the side, Nan Ge suddenly opened his mouth.
Hua Mujie understood the meaning behind his words. She pursed her lips and shook her head helplessly.
“It is unavoidable, but these soldiers and soldiers who were kept in the dark should not have died like this. “If the real battle was not a conspiracy of the two generals, it would be worth the death, but this …”
Following that, Hua Mu Jin didn’t continue.
“Your subordinate understands what Your Highness is thinking, but even so, the soldiers of Huan Yue are willing to enter the battlefield.”
Willing?
Flower hibiscus did not agree with Nan Ge.
Most of these soldiers had family and friends. If they died, how sad would their family and friends be?
“The troops led by Master and General Shangguan are all the trusted aides of Master and General Shangguan. They know the inside information.”
Suddenly, Nan Ge spoke again.
Hua Mujiao looked at him in shock, completely unable to react.
No wonder she felt it was strange. Why did the Huan Yue Country send over a hundred thousand soldiers, while the Bai Zhan Ke and Shangguan Yi only brought forty thousand soldiers and horses? So it was actually …
Thinking this, Hua Mu Jin’s heart ached, and his eyes became moist.
How much loyalty and courage must a person have to be to unhesitatingly obey orders and die?
She could not, she thought, die for anyone but White War.
Hua Mujiao gazed at the battlefield. It was unknown if she was seeing things, or if she was feeling too much. In her eyes, it was as if she was seeing the figure of Li Mao, who had been standing guard outside her tent day and night.
“Nan Ge, that soldier, is, is that Li Mao?”
Hua Mu Jin didn’t dare to be sure, and asked Nan Ge with an extremely low voice.
Nan followed her gaze and narrowed her eyes.
“Yes.”
Tears rolled down his face.
Hua Mujiao definitely looked at the soldier that was knocked to the ground. A sharp sword had been stabbed into his heart by one of the enemy kingdom’s soldiers. Following that, his head was chopped off by one of the enemy kingdom’s soldiers …
In Hua Mu Jin’s mind, she recalled the scene of Li Mao being unconvinced by her, as well as the many scenes of her fight with him.
“Princess, the zither is here.”
At this time, Dan Yu walked up and handed the zither to Hua Mujiao. He glanced at her face out of the corner of his eyes and saw two streams of tears. His heart ached inexplicably.
Suddenly, Hua Mujiao sat down. She placed Qin Ping on her lap and stroked the strings with her slender fingers. Tears dripped onto the strings, emitting a weak sound.
Afterwards, she strummed the zither, and the sound emitted from the zither was sonorous and forceful. The grand and imposing zither actually resounded throughout the entire battlefield like a war drum.
“Empress …”
“Princess …”
Nan Ge and Dan Yu spoke at the same time. They didn’t know why Hua Mu Jin would suddenly start playing the zither, but they were worried that if they were to focus all of their inner strength on their fingertips, it would definitely harm their hands.
Hua Mujiao seemed to not have heard the voices of the two. She closed her eyes and only thought about transmitting the zither music to the ears of all the soldiers.
What’s more, she didn’t even know what tune she was playing. She only knew that she was going to cheer for the soldiers.
The death of the soldiers in the Heavenly Light Nation’s battlefield did not affect her mood at all.
However, when she saw the soldiers of the Huan Yue fall one by one, her heart felt as if it had been grabbed by something and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
Especially when she saw Li Mao fall, her heart was filled with grief.
The soldiers who’d fallen were all the familiar faces she’d seen in the past month.
On the battlefield, the sound of a zither could suddenly be heard. Although it was covered up by the shouts of battle, it had more or less reached the ears of the soldiers.
And the music of the hibiscus flowers, like the trumpets of war, impassioned the hearts of the soldiers.
They also knew who the zither music came from.
Because the flower hibiscus gave them, once touched the zither.
“This girl, she really does make people worry.”
Shangguan Yi, who was in the middle of battle, laughed and reprimanded her after hearing the zither music of Hibiscus vulgaris.
Although it was reprimanding him, deep in his heart, he felt as if someone had put on armor. The passionate music of the zither made him even more determined to win.
“Have you all heard?” “This is the victory song that the Empress has given us. We will defeat the enemy, and when we return, this general and the Empress will heavily reward us!”
All of a sudden, Shangguan Yi shouted out loud to support his soldiers. His voice reached their ears, and it stirred their hearts.
On the chariot, Bai Zhan Ke listened to the music of the hibiscus flower and turned his head to look at the tower.
His brows slightly knit, and his pair of deep black eyes were filled with worry.
Even though he was worried about Hua Mujiao, he clearly understood that he could not leave right now. Even if he did not fight against the enemy general, his existence was still an essential part of the battlefield.
With him in charge, they would be truly cheering for the warriors. The soldiers would also feel that with the emperor around, they would lose.
Hua Mujiao played the zither for two whole hours, but the battle on the battlefield still did not stop.
Her fingertips were red and then purple, and now the strings were full of the blood that had flowed from them.
“Empress, you can’t play anymore.”
Nan Ge’s heart ached as he looked at this flower and hibiscus.
He wanted to step forward and stop them, but because he was a subordinate, he didn’t dare to.
“Princess, that’s enough. Please stop.”
By the side, Dan Yu also looked at her bleeding fingertips and frowned.
Unfortunately, the words of these two people didn’t have the slightest effect on Hua Mu Jin.
Nan Ge couldn’t bear it any longer. He looked at the white battle cry on the war chariot in the distance, not knowing what to do.
Dan Yu gritted his teeth, his gaze moved away from Hua Mu Jin’s bleeding fingertip, then he walked up and stood behind Hua Mu Jin. He suddenly raised his hand, and struck the back of Hua Mu Jin’s head with a palm.
Just this one palm strike had caused Hua Mu Jin to faint, and the zither music had also abruptly stopped.
“What are you doing?”
Nan Ge looked at Dan Yu vigilantly as he questioned him.
He glanced at him and picked up Hua Mu Jin who was unconscious on his body, then opened his mouth and said softly: “What? Could it be that I have to allow the princess to continue playing the zither until her hands are crippled? ”
With that, he walked towards the stairs of the tower.
Nan Ge understood Yu’s intentions, but his actions were inappropriate.
“Then you should be much lighter. You should not injure the Empress, and you should also want the prince in her womb.”
