The Captivating Crown Prince - Chapter 350
Chapter 350
For the past two months, none of them had left the capital. However, this did not mean that the five men had not done anything.
Currently, Mist Country and Nangong Country belonged to Shang and Shang, but Han Xuanhao and Nangong Qian still called themselves kings without any restrictions. This was something Shang had no intention to decide, she could accept this precious betrothal gift but she would not let her man lose his land.
Ye Yi Zhe’s inheritance was now in the complete control of Ye Yi Zhe. Now, even if Ye Yi Zhe didn’t appear in every country like before, the Ye clan’s inheritance wouldn’t have any problems. Ye Yi Zhe had already taken care of the Ye clan’s elders without any worries.
These two months were the best time for both Shang and the five men, they lived together like husband and wife. They would carefully take care of Shang’s carelessness while sparring with each other over martial arts. However, the thing they had been longing for all this time did not happen. Because of the stop of the drug, their eyes were focused on Shang’s unintentional stomach these days, but they did not move at all. However, these men came to realize that this kind of thing was natural, even if they did not have children, their love would not change at all.
While the five of them were discussing matters, He Lai Jin suddenly broke into the main hall, sweating profusely as he said, “General, something happened in the military camp!” In one sentence, it was not only chaos that was stirred up, but also the war between the State of Shang and the Western Regions.
The six of them did not panic at all. They already knew that the Western Regions would act, or rather, even if the Western Regions did not act, they would act. However, they had yet to come to an agreement when the Western Regions had already begun. Moreover, the moment they had arrived, they had already moved on to important matters such as the military camps.
“Slow down!” They needed to save or reverse the situation, and Shang had never been aware that war would eventually end up in the hands of the innocent.
It turned out that the soldiers in the border barracks were not in a good mood. Originally, no one had thought too much about it, but Rongxin had noticed that something was amiss. After investigating it, he realized that all the soldiers were poisoned. Even though Rongxin had discovered it in time, half of the soldiers of the Shang Army had been caught off guard. At this time, the Western Regions actually sent troops to attack the Shang Army. Currently, the soldiers of the Shang Army had no chance of winning at all.
Shang looked at Leng Yufeng and Ye Yi Zhe, both of them nodding in understanding. As for the matter of being poisoned, only Ye Yi Zhe could help. The matter of the battlefield was Leng Yu Feng’s speciality, so Shang did not have the heart to trust them. There were so many people. If they couldn’t win, then there was no need to live anymore.
Time waited for no one. After the several people in the main hall discussed matters, Leng Yufeng and Ye Yi Zhe stood up. At this time, they no longer had the time to be in love with each other, and this was all for their future efforts. As long as the Western Regions managed to get rid of this continent, they could truly be together.
After Leng Yufeng and Ye Yizhi left the crown prince’s mansion and headed towards the border, Shang Tong and the others did not idle around either. Although the two of them had intentions to enter the battlefield, they knew that their abilities were not here, so they did not force the issue. On the other hand, Shang Wuxin and Han Xuanhao had already left the State of Shang without a sound.
“Xin, do you want to rest for a bit?” The two of them were not riding a horse carriage, although their speed was not particularly fast, but Han Xuanhao still felt a bit of heartache. At this moment, the two of them were in a small town, and the two of them were wearing bamboo hats, so their faces could not be seen clearly.
Shang Wu Xin shook his head, but Han Xuanhao had no choice but to continue on his way. Han Xuanhao himself was puzzled as to why Shang didn’t want to send them to the Western Regions. Now was not the best time to head for the Western Regions at such a sensitive time.
“The Western Regions may seem weak and weak, but it’s a strange country that’s hard to conquer. I don’t have that much time to waste on the Western Regions, so if I want to destroy the Western Regions faster, not only from the outside but also from the inside. I have a feeling …”
Shang didn’t say what his premonition was, but everyone could understand his misgivings. Sometimes, a battlefield could last for decades, and not only could Shang Wuxin not wait for them, he could also not wait for them. Moreover, they had yet to find out the identity of that weird man. One had to know that since that man had saved Qing Li that day, he was their enemy. It was not reassuring to think that such a person could be used by the Western Regions.
“Be careful!” Han Xuanhao suddenly said something, and Shang Wuxin dismounted. At the moment when Shang had no intention to dodge, a dart had appeared. This speed meant that the assassin was definitely not an ordinary assassin.
At this time, the Blood Shang Army that was hidden in the dark appeared. How could Shang be alone to go to the Western Regions? Shang Wuxin’s expression did not look good, even Han Xuanhao did. It was just that he had hidden his tracks, and now that he had met someone who had attempted to assassinate him, he did not look too good either.
Not many people knew about this incident, but they were assassinated. What did this mean? Either some of them betrayed him, or the enemy was too strong, which was why they were able to move so fast. However, no matter what, it was not a good thing for Shang.
The concealed weapon failed to hit its target, but no one appeared. However, the eerily quiet environment made everyone aware of the danger. Han Xuanhao was the first one to move. The fluttering red embroidered robe gave off a cold wind. Han Xuanhao was like a butterfly filled with killing intent.
With a flash, Han Xuanhao had another person in his hand, and that person had already been killed. With Han Xuanhao’s movement, Shang Wuxin moved as well. It was not only Shang Wuxin who moved, even the Blood Shang Army started to move as well.
At this time, when Leng Yufeng and Ye Yi Zhe arrived at the border, they had already lost a battle and even lost a city. This was a disgrace to the Shang Army and a painful self-blame, because even the city wasn’t guarded well by the general.
“General!” As soon as Leng Yufeng and Ye Yizhi entered the camp, they saw the generals kneeling on the ground.
Leng Yufeng waved his hand and everyone stood up, no one could be blamed at this time. Ye Yi Zhe knew that he wouldn’t be able to help much in the military camp, so he said to Leng Yufeng, “I’ll go take a look at those poisoned soldiers!”
Ye Yi Zhe’s identity wasn’t a secret, so when they saw the Divine Doctor arrive, they all relaxed a bit.
“Bring me all the papers!” The border area was his home ground. No matter what happened to Leng Yufeng, he was always able to arrange everything in the shortest time possible, and with the arrival of Leng Yufeng himself, he gave the strongest form of calm to the troops.
Ye Yi Zhe also went to the barracks to look at the Shang soldiers who were poisoned, and after some diagnosis, he knew that this was indeed a method used by the people of the Western Regions, after all, Gu poison was a special product of the Western Regions, and this time, the Gu poison was on a large scale and not just anyone could use it, even the Western Region’s fragrance was not allowed. This meant that there was something more hidden at the end of this war, and Ye Yi Zhe suddenly thought of Shang’s unintentional methods, causing his heart to grow a little worried.
After investigating the reason, Ye Yizhe hurriedly developed an antidote for the Shang Army.
Since Leng Yufeng had entered the border, he had busily moved to the ground. The Western Regions had sent troops to attack him several times, but because the Shang Army’s backbone was here, even though they did not achieve a complete victory, they did not lose a single piece of land.
“How is it?” Leng Yufeng, who had just returned from the battlefield, directly entered Ye Yi Zhe’s tent. At this moment, there were still traces of blood on his armor, and there were some minor wounds on his body. However, Leng Yufeng did not pay it any heed.
Ye Yi Zhe was in the middle of concocting the antidote for the Gu poison, but when he heard Leng Yu Feng’s voice, he turned his head to look at him. Then, he stopped and took out a bottle of medicine from his medicine case and threw it at Leng Yu Feng.
Although Leng Yufeng did not care about his small injury, but now that they all had hope, they were afraid of dying and afraid of getting hurt, so Leng Yufeng did not hesitate, and directly took off his armor in Ye Yi Zhe’s tent, covering his upper body, his originally honey-colored skin was covered with deep and shallow wounds, Leng Yu Feng used the ointment to apply some medicine on himself, but discovered that the moment he smeared the medicine, he stopped bleeding.
“Thank you!” Leng Yufeng prepared to return the ointment to Huan Mo Che, but Huan Mo Che rejected him. After all, even though this ointment was expensive, there was not only one bottle.
Leng Yufeng sat in Ye Yi Zhe’s tent for a long time, until Ye Yi Zhe let out a breath, “Alright, get someone to distribute the antidote!” Concocting the antidote had taken several days of Ye Yizhi’s time. For example, tonight, Yizhi’s current ashen face was extremely serious.
“Have a good rest!” As Leng Yufeng spoke, he took out the antidotes and instructed He Lai Jin to give them to the Shang soldiers who had been poisoned by the Gu poison. As Leng Yufeng expected, the situation of the Shang Army was slowly improving.
At this time in the capital city of Shang, Nangong Qian and Huan Mo Che were controlling the court in the imperial court. But the difference was that Nangong Qian did not attend to the morning assembly, but many matters were handled by him, while Huan Mo Che was helping Emperor Shang with many matters in the imperial court. There was one more thing that surprised the crowd — a woman had appeared in the imperial court, and she was the second princess. She did not have any position, but she was standing by the side of Emperor Shang. It was not that no one dared to disobey Shang’s orders, but it was unintentional. Shang Xiange had also become a palace official, but was actually able to participate in national affairs.
“Your majesty, there is a plague in many parts of the country. Now is not the time for war. This subject feels that it should be at peace!” Several civil officials said. The pestilence that suddenly broke out in the country not only affected the citizens, but also unsettled their hearts. The people believed that Prince Shang’s ascension to the position of Crown Prince was a punishment brought by the heavens.
Today, Huan Mo Che was dealing with a lot of matters with Nangong Qian, so these court officials were a bit more daring.
The sudden plague made Emperor Shang and the others understand that this was not a natural plague, but at this moment, the people’s hearts were indeed a little lax. Earlier, the people were still rioting, and it was Nangong Qian who personally led the soldiers to suppress them, but there were some things that would cause the pressure and resistance to become greater.
“Mainland?” “Now that the Western Regions is bullying us, what can we do about it?” Although he was a government official, he had the resolution of a military officer. Originally, he should have retired at his age, but his son had followed Leng Yufeng to the battlefield. Now that the crown prince was not present in the imperial court, he was able to stay here.
At this time, Shang Xiange, who was standing below Emperor Shang, suddenly knelt in the main hall, his voice firm and firm, “Father, your son requests you to investigate the plague!”
Emperor Shang looked at his daughter, whom he did not love. Although she was not the child he loved, but these days, they had a lot of contact. Although it was not the same as the usual father and daughter, it was still much better than the royal family’s father and daughter. Since Huan Mo Che and Nangong Qian could not leave, the other ministers and officials could not be at ease either.
“Good!” I order you to investigate the plague! ” It wasn’t that she didn’t care about the life and death of her daughter, but that she knew that if Shang Liangge wanted to stand here as a woman, then what she needed was opportunity, and opportunity was never that simple.
“Thank you, Imperial Father!” Shang Xiange’s downcast brows split open. She could support her and do something for her. How wonderful!
