Chapter 183 Jiang Yunzheng dreamed that Qi Yunshen turned into a pile of bones
At the same time, Chang Yi City.
King Gaoyang was furious.
The news of Shuitan City being occupied did not arrive until the next day. The messenger was the soldier stationed outside Shuitan City who had escorted Murong Che away the day before.
"Shuitan City has 40,000 troops stationed there. How did Qi Yunshen do it?!"
The soldier trembled with fear and only spoke what he knew: "First, General Wang Ba transferred 10,000 men on your orders. Then General Dongguo reported that bandits were rampant in Dabai Mountain, and the garrison commander transferred another 3,000 men from the garrison outside the city. I heard from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that Qi Yunshen blew up the mine..."
King Gaoyang was so angry that he felt dizzy and dazed. Dongguo and Wang Ba were probably in great danger.
He picked up an inkstone and threw it out, "Get out! What the hell is the prince doing in Shuitan City?!"
No one present dared to respond.
After a long while, someone finally said, "Your Majesty, should we send someone over?"
"We can't just watch Shuitan City being taken by the Daliang people, right?"
…
"Why send them now?! Send them to die?! What's the point of sending them now?"
After a while, another secret sentry brought news that the food supplies in Fengye City and Yuehua City had been robbed, and most of the food supplies in several warehouses had been burned.
This time, King Gaoyang vomited blood out of his true energy.
He stared at the map. "No wonder Qi Yunshen stayed in Xiazhou after coming to the northwest and didn't come to Xinhao City. He wanted to cut off my Changyi City's retreat. Fengye and Ye are just two cities. Fortunately, Pingcheng and Yuan'an City are still there!"
Pingcheng is located behind Yatou Pass and is considered the last base camp of the Five Cities.
Yuan'an City can temporarily replenish the food and grass of Changyi City.
Early this morning.
Jiang Yunzheng woke up early. With Qi Yunshen by her side, the quilt was warm and she didn't wake up all night.
When she looked up, she saw the handsome face of the man. She used her fingers to gesture at his facial features.
Qi Yunshen had handsome features when he was young, and his appearance was cold and difficult to approach. After several years of experience at the border, he gained a fierce and murderous aura, and earned the title of the Cold-Faced King of Hell. His methods became more and more cruel, making people frightened and afraid to approach him.
She looked at Qi Yunshen's face for a long time, and her eyes became moist.
Qi Yunshen opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, not like he had just woken up.
Jiang Yunzheng feigned anger to hide the moisture in her eyes, "You woke up a long time ago?"
Qi Yunshen smiled: "Yes, otherwise I wouldn't know why someone has such a special liking for my face."
Jiang Yunzheng snorted softly, "Get up."
There was still a strong wind blowing outside the window. They were leaving Shuitan City this morning. Qi Yunshen made Jiang Yunzheng wear thick clothes. The gauze on her body had been changed last night. First she wore a small shirt, then a loose middle shirt, and then a scarlet jacket made of fox fur, and a short jacket on the outside.
During the whole process, Qi Yunshen moved very gently, for fear of touching the wounds on Jiang Yunzheng's body.
Jiang Yunzheng's gold-threaded helmet and armor, hairpins, hidden weapons and the like were thrown away when they were sent to the Wu Mansion, and they could not be found.
After finishing breakfast and going out, Qi Yunshen put a scarf on her and a shawl on her.
It was windy outside, so he carried Jiang Yunzheng all the way to the carriage.
At this time, Qingying, Hou Yue and others who had been searching for Jiang Yunzheng for several days finally arrived in Shuitan City. They were all pale and thin, as if they had fled.
Qingying glanced at the carriage, knelt on one knee on the ground, his eyes sunken from worry: "It is us who failed to protect Doctor Jiang. Please punish us, Master."
Qi Yunshen rode on his horse, his narrow eyes reflecting a coldness: "Let's go back to Xiazhou first."
Qingying felt extremely guilty: "Yes!"
Li Ke watched the whole process in astonishment, and became more and more curious about the identity of this woman.
Hou Yue leaned over to the side of the carriage, crying bitterly, "Doctor Jiang, I finally found you."
"How can I live without you?"
Hou Yue was truly sad. Besides being her boss, Jiang Yunzheng was also her friend.
Jiang Yunzheng lifted the curtain: "Come up first, it's cold outside."
Hou Yue looked at the scar on her forehead, his face became serious, and he climbed up quickly.
Jiang Yunzheng felt helpless seeing Hou Yueru looking like he was facing a great enemy.
Xiao Quan and his friends have lived at the foot of the snow-capped mountains all year round and knew where to hide to reduce the damage, mainly because Jiang Yunzheng's horse was frightened.
Hou Yue wanted to pull Jiang Yunzheng's clothes off to see, but Jiang Yunzheng slapped her hand away: "It's just a minor scratch."
Hou Yue secretly made up her mind that no matter where Jiang Yunzheng went from now on, she, Hou Yue, would follow!
Hou Yue suddenly asked: "By the way, are your herbs okay?"
Having said that, Jiang Yunzheng didn't answer any more. She leaned against the car wall with an unclear expression.
Hou Yue was stunned. "No more?"
I finally found this treasure, now it's gone?
Gone???
Hou Yue moved her lips, but for a moment she didn't know how to comfort Jiang Yunzheng.
Last night, before Wu Yue was executed by slow slicing, his head was cut off. Shortly after the group left Shuitan City, Wu Yue's head was hung on the gate of Shuitan City.
There were many people on this trip, and there were women in the carriage. To be on the safe side, they did not take the same route they came, but pretended to be business travelers and went around Shuitan City to Ningzhou, and then returned to Xiazhou from Ningzhou.
On the first night after leaving Shuitan City, everyone found an inn to stay in.
Before arriving in Ningzhou, Qi Yunshen and his men encountered 30,000 troops transferred from Ningzhou to Shuitan City. That night, they stayed in the Ningzhou Governor's Mansion.
At night, Qi Yunshen and Jiang Yunzheng stayed in the same room, and Qingying, Hou Yue and others were no longer surprised.
After dinner, Qi Yunshen asked Jiang Yunzheng to lie on the bed and change the dressing.
Jiang Yunzheng's brows twitched slightly: "Let Hou Yue in."
Qi Yunshen: "Why ask her to do that? I'm not here."
Jiang Yunzheng stared at him without saying anything.
Qi Yunshen leaned against the bed and said, "I was the one who changed your dressing the first time. It's too late to be shy now."
Jiang Yunzheng covered his face with one hand, looking ready to die.
Qi Yunshen smiled: "Is it really that serious?"
Jiang Yunzheng urged him: "Hurry up, I want to sleep after applying the medicine."
The light in the corner of the bed was dim, covering Jiang Yunzheng's slightly flushed cheeks.
After taking off his middle and lower garments, the hideous scars were exposed to the public, and Jiang Yunzheng took a glance.
Well, not very pretty.
Qi Yunshen washed his hands, wiped the water off with a dry towel, slowly scooped out the ointment, and applied it little by little on Jiang Yunzheng's wounds.
The ointment feels cool when applied, but not stinging.
Jiang Yunzheng sniffed the medicine and found that it contained scar-removing ingredients.
She raised her eyes and saw Qi Yunshen's face was serious and focused.
She suddenly thought of when she was pregnant in her previous life. When she was five or six months pregnant, Qi Yunshen would apply a layer of ointment on her belly every night before going to bed.
That was given to Qi Yunshen by the eldest princess.
It is said to prevent stretch marks on pregnant women’s bellies.
The ointment dried slowly, and after each application, Qi Yunshen would fan Xu Jingyang inside the bed curtains. Xu Jingyang closed his eyes and fell asleep as Qi Yunshen spoke slowly.
The lights in the house will not be turned off until the ointment is completely dry.
Thinking of the past, Jiang Yunzheng couldn't help but smile.
Qi Yunshen raised his eyebrows slightly: "What are you laughing at?"
Jiang Yunzheng's eyebrows curved slightly.
She seemed to travel through time and saw Qi Yunshen four years ago, and the gentle young man who washed clothes and cooked every day in the small courtyard in Jiangnan a few years ago.
Qi Yunshen re-bandaged Jiang Yunzheng. He stared at Jiang Yunzheng's pale and thin face and said, "Go back and take good care of yourself."
Jiang Yunzheng's expression paused slightly, and she smiled: "I am a doctor, I know my physical condition."
Qi Yunshen looked at her solemnly, still worried.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Yunzheng was awakened by a nightmare.
Qi Yunshen is right next to me.
The man's dark eyes locked onto her: "Jing Yang, what did you dream about?"
Jiang Yunzheng was covered in cold sweat.
She couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.
It seemed as if as soon as she closed her eyes, she was back in that cave.
In the cave, the empty eye sockets of the female corpse stared straight at her. Behind the female corpse, Qi Yunshen was hidden in the darkness. The lines of white bones, green water and poison covered the man's face until it turned into a pile of dry bones.
Jiang Yunzheng tightly grasped Qi Yunshen's hand, and tears as big as beans came out of her eyes.
She murmured: "Qi Yunshen, you must live."
Qi Yunshen hugged Jiang Yunzheng, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood.
