Yelu Qi turned to look at his adjutant and asked, "Is Luo Ying okay?"
"No, General, please rest assured. Luo Ying is completely controlled by the Prince of Nanping at this moment. He would never think that we are attacking the city here."
But is the reality really as they expected?
When Yelu Qi was relieved and planned to continue attacking the city, Luo Ying, who was hosting a banquet at Luo Mansion, was also in trouble.
Since they were hosting a wedding at the border, they tried to save as much as possible. There were no parents present, only Luo Ying's brothers, friends, and some neighbors.
Just as everyone was having a lively wedding banquet, an uninvited guest showed up.
The Prince of Nanping entered the wedding hall dressed in black. On the wedding day, everyone was dressed in festive attire. However, his black figure stood out in the crowd, making it difficult to ignore him.
Prince Ye Changge of Nanping had a face as stinky as his clothes. Seeing his former enemy marry the bride he had been dreaming of, his heart was bleeding.
He had his reasons for leaving without saying goodbye that day.
The struggles within the royal family were far more intense than Tian Wan'er had imagined. Take his father, Prince Rong, for example: he had sixteen sons and ten daughters. Ye Changge was only third in line within the Rong Palace, with the eldest son ahead of him, and the younger brothers behind him watching him covetously, hoping for his swift demise.
Ye Changge had lived in a world of deception and betrayal, and no longer held any hope for human nature. Prince Rong had watched his brothers fight each other, and watched his mother being slandered by a concubine and given poisoned wine. It would be absurd for Ye Changge to say he didn't hate her.
He hated Prince Rong and the Prince Rong's mansion. He had tried to escape from the Prince Rong's mansion more than once, but he would always be dragged into the struggles of the Prince Rong's mansion.
And in the battles again and again, Ye Changge understood that if he did not fight for something, he would be torn to pieces by the enemy.
So he began to take the initiative to join the battle, watching coldly those brothers who had bullied him die in front of him.
Just when he thought he could secure his place as the crown prince, his brother, who had grown up with him, betrayed him. Ye Changge was expelled from the family on false charges, losing his competitive edge.
He made a disastrous exit, and the enemy showed no sign of letting him go. He was hunted down on his way home. Only thanks to the help of his assassins did he escape.
During the escape, he hit his head and lost his memory and was rescued by Tian Wan'er.
Ye Changge, who had lost his memory, had a rare period of relaxing days, but he didn't expect that the good times would not last long as he was recognized by his former subordinates.
After Ye Changge regained his memory, he planned to go back for revenge and take back everything that belonged to him. However, the incident happened so suddenly that he left without saying goodbye to Tian Wan'er.
Ye Changge originally thought of going back to marry Tian Wan'er after finishing his business, but he didn't expect Tian Wan'er to turn around and marry Luo Ying from the Luo family, his former enemy.
How could the arrogant Ye Changge bear this? He impulsively cooperated with the Jiannu people in order to prevent the wedding.
He dragged Luo Ying and asked her to stay here to worship. As long as he endured for a while and waited for the Jiannu to open the border of Muhe County, he could take Tian Wan'er away in the chaos.
The plan was very good, and they achieved their goal of traveling far away in their previous life.
But Xu Jing's appearance disrupted the situation, delaying the Jiannu's advance. Luo Ying was about to get married when a discordant voice rang out from outside the door. "General Luo, this is bad! The Jiannu are charging in!"
Bai Shinian, Jiang Xuqing's lackey-like advisor, finally arrived. Panting, he didn't care whether others paid their respects or not. The first thing he said was urgent military affairs.
Luo Ying frowned and grabbed Bai Shinian's collar, saying, "If this is true, why didn't anyone inform me?"
"Oh my God, why are you pulling me?" Bai Shinian cried out in pain. He hadn't traveled so fast in a long time and he was out of breath. Someone pulled him by the collar and he couldn't even breathe for a while.
Luo Ying ignored him and looked at him coldly, saying, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?"
"Put it down first." Luo Ying followed his instructions and let go of Bai Shinian. Bai Shinian patted his chest, took a deep breath, and said, "The Jiannu attacked Muhe County at night. Didn't you receive any notice here? General Luo, are you taking the Jiannu people too lightly?"
How could that be?
Luo Ying was originally very happy, but the news of the Jiannu attack on Muhe County was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, completely sobering him up.
Regardless of whether Bai Shinian was right or not, he had to go over and take a look. "Ah Si, bring me my spear. Zhang Xiao, prepare the horse."
As Luo Ying's follower, Ah Si immediately obeyed the order and went there. Zhang Xiao also went to lead the warhorse that had accompanied Luo Ying in battle for many years.
As everything was ready, Luo Ying was about to leave when she saw Tian Wan'er, who had taken off her red veil and whose hair was covered with pearl hairpins.
Tian Wan'er was speechless and tears were streaming down her face. Seeing Luo Ying picking up her gun and leaving, she cried, "Luo Ying, can't we wait until the wedding ceremony is over before you leave?"
Luo Ying turned away from her and saluted with his back to her. "My lady, this is an emergency. Please forgive my rudeness. I will apologize to you when I get back."
"You embarrassed me in front of a room full of friends and family. Is this the philosophy you've followed since childhood?" Tian Wan'er hadn't expected the people she met to be so unreliable. Ye Changge had left without saying goodbye, leaving her struggling to run the stall. If Luo Ying hadn't protected her, she would have been bullied by hooligans.
She originally thought that she had met her true love when she met Luo Ying, and she slowly let go of her grudges and began to accept Luo Ying. However, she did not expect that on the wedding night, Luo Ying would embarrass her so much in front of everyone. Who could bear it?
She gritted her teeth and said, "If you step out of this door, I will divorce you. From now on, you and I will be strangers. Don't ask about the future or the way back."
No matter how reluctant Luo Ying felt, he still had to make a choice when facing a powerful enemy.
He turned around and bowed to Tian Wan'er. "My lady, with the enemy at hand, I have no time to think about romantic matters. Luo Ying's life is the life of the people of Muhe County. If Muhe County is lost, Luo Ying will not live in vain. My lady is very understanding and will understand Luo Ying's difficulties. I hope you will be tolerant."
"Shut up! Stop talking about national justice in such nice words. Why do you believe everything he says?" Tian Wan'er pointed at Bai Shinian and cursed, "He's just a dog by Magistrate Jiang's side. Magistrate Jiang is used to being an accomplice to the evil, and few of his subordinates take him seriously. How can you believe his words?"
Xu Jing, feeling inexplicably concerned, sneezed and wondered: Who on earth is cursing him behind his back? Never mind, killing someone was the most important thing.
Xu Jing was busy killing people, while Luo Ying was busy saying goodbye to Tian Wan'er.
Both sides insisted on their own opinions, and the smell of gunpowder in the air only increased.
