Chapter 99 Pain
The last ray of sunlight at dusk was also driven away by the gradually enveloping darkness.
Song Huaixi did not sleep well as Lin Rugui instructed, but wrapped himself in a blanket and sat at the edge of the tent.
The night was as dark as ink, just like the day he was kidnapped.
It was dark in the tent and he could not hear any sound. He was speechless, even though his captors had not gagged him.
He didn't know why. He clearly wanted to call out Zhao Fangye's name but he didn't do it.
Song Huaixi leaned against the edge of the tent, his dark round eyes slightly hazy. My eyelids couldn't help but want to close.
But after only closing his eyes for a moment, Song Huaixi felt as if he had seen some horrifying scene. He suddenly opened his eyes and began to breathe heavily.
The heart in my chest seemed to have been greatly frightened and was beating wildly regardless of anything.
Song Huaixi covered his heart, he didn't know what was wrong with him.
After a long while, he looked at the dark night sky and whispered slowly: "Zhao Fangye, I seem to be sick."
Just at this moment, a figure stepped out of the darkness into the small area of light where he was.
Zhao Fangye knelt down and hugged the haggard man squatting on the ground: "I'm sorry, Huaixi, I'm late."
Zhao Fangye rushed back from the battlefield without stopping, fearing that the blood stains on his body would scare him. As soon as he entered the military camp, he took off his bloodstained armor and outer shirt. If someone hadn't handed me a new coat in time.
Zhao Fangye was thinking about going to find Song Huaixi wearing only his underwear.
At this moment, the two of them hugged each other tightly under the dim candlelight, and Song Huaixi's heart, filled with fear, helplessness, aggrieved and scared, seemed to burst a dam at this moment.
"Zhao Fangye...Zhao Fangye...I'm so scared! Zhao Fangye is so dark...It hurts so much...There's so much blood..." Song Huaixi spoke incoherently, clutching Zhao Fangye's coat tightly with both hands and leaning on his shoulders.
It's like returning to a safe harbor. He could rely on her and cry loudly without restraint because he knew that Zhao Fangye would accept everything about him.
Zhao Fangye hugged Song Huaixi and wanted to embed him into his flesh and blood: "It's okay, Huaixi, I'm here. No one can hurt you anymore."
Song Huaixi's cries sounded like sharp knives. The sound of torture was like a bloody mess to his heart.
Feeling sad, Zhao Fangye held him in his arms and kissed his ear over and over again. Confessing over and over again: "It's my fault. I didn't protect you. There won't be a next time, Huaixi... There won't be a next time..."
Song Huaixi didn't know how scared he was when General Xiao brought him the news that he had been captured. In the past, there were people who claimed that they had no worries and were not afraid of anything in this world.
At that moment, I felt the fear very clearly.
At that moment, he was almost desperate with hatred! He resented why God was always unwilling to give him a little kindness.
Everything he cherishes and values will be harmed and taken away.
Why? He was unwilling to accept it. He hated everyone who took away his only remaining warmth.
The voice that came to my ear was low and restrained. Song Huaixi was keenly aware of the pain, and he choked and struggled to break free from Zhao Fangye's arms.
With the help of the faint candlelight in the tent, Song Huaixi reached out and touched Zhao Fangye's face. A handsome face with red eyes at this moment.
His face was covered with a look of great pain.
Song Huaixi had never seen him with such an expression before. In his impression, Zhao Fangye was reserved and gentle, and rarely lost control in front of him.
He was as sensitive as a little animal and immediately noticed that Zhao Fangye was in a bad mood.
Without caring that she had just choked with sobs, Song Huaixi immediately turned around to comfort Zhao Fangye.
He got up from the ground, put Zhao Fangye's head on his shoulder and said awkwardly: "Zhao...Fang...Ye, you...um...don't be sad..."
"It's all...over, Huaixi...well, I'm not afraid anymore..." She reached out and patted his back gently, just like what Lin Rugui did when she had a nightmare before. I thought this would dispel his fear.
Song Huaixi patted Zhao Fangye's back and choked up, "It's alright...it's all over..."
Zhao Fangye hugged Song Huaixi tightly, as if he was the last straw a person would grab before drowning.
It was too dark that night, so Song Huaixi could not see the crystal drop falling on Zhao Fangye's face.
Zhao Fangye won this battle very beautifully.
It almost severely damaged the imperial court. The troops that the emperor sent to Xiao Taiwei were almost all the troops that could be mobilized in the capital.
Now Zhao Fangye's power in the northwest is growing stronger, but strangely. Zhao Fangye no longer followed his usual strategy, but instead prepared to take advantage of the moment when the imperial court was severely damaged to attack the capital in one fell swoop.
Several subordinates in the tent were somewhat worried about Zhao Fangye's decision. But looking at Zhao Fangye's expression, they knew that the matter was a done deal, and they couldn't say anything more.
No one can easily change what Zhao Fangye has decided.
After leaving the tent, one of the subordinates said to Lan Feng who was standing beside him with a worried look on his face: "General Lan Feng, don't you think that the prince is taking too much risk? Although the court has been badly hurt, its foundation is still there. Although we won, many of our brothers were killed or injured."
Sikou Lanfeng was also surprised by Zhao Fangye's decision, but she believed that Zhao Fangye must have his considerations for doing so.
However, she vaguely felt that Zhao Fangye was so anxious to attack the capital. The reason may be related to Song Huaixi's kidnapping.
Sikou Lanfeng didn't say much on the surface, but just said casually: "Hey, the prince has his own considerations. You and I will just obey his orders. Maybe you can even become a founding general by then!"
Sikou Lanfeng's words dispelled his worries, and he also joked: "That's right, wouldn't it be wonderful if it were true? I'm really tired of eating sand here. I'm not as lucky as General Lanfeng, who can even eat in the princess's small kitchen."
"Hahaha." Sikou Lanfeng laughed.
Speaking of Song Huaixi, she was just about to go see him.
As soon as I entered the tent, I saw Song Huaixi leaning on the bed reading a picture book. Holding a book in one hand and pinching a raisin pie made in the kitchenette with the other. Chewing until his cheeks are bulging. It seems that he is in much better spirits these days.
Hearing the noise, Song Huaixi turned around and saw it was her. She called out sweetly, "Sister Lanfeng! Why are you here?"
"I came to see you." Sikou Lanfeng picked a chair and sat down: "Have you been sleeping well these days, Princess?"
"I slept well." Song Huaixi subconsciously touched his waist and answered with a smile.
During the first few nights after being rescued, he was haunted by nightmares every night. He didn't dare close his eyes. Zhao Fangye stayed by his side, watching over him and coaxing him, but it was of no use.
In the end, Zhao Fangye tortured him so hard that he was exhausted and could not think of anything. Only then did Song Huaixi fall into a good sleep.
However, this method is effective but it is a bit waist-breaking.
