Chapter 863 What's the Use of You?
This kiss made Xiao Lanyuan's heart soften.
"Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to me."
In order to be able to stay with her for a long time in the future, he will cherish his life.
If he died, she would belong to someone else in the future. When he thought of her snuggling in the arms of another man, his heart felt like it was thrown into a frying pan and fried.
Absolutely not.
"I will be careful too." said Fu Zhaoning.
Xiao Lanyuan's lips covered hers.
After a long time, Qing Yi's voice was heard from outside.
"Ahem, Your Majesty, Princess, Imperial Censor An asked if we can set off now?"
Xiao Lanyuan let go of Fu Zhaoning, picked up the mask and put it on.
"Half a month."
He emphasized again.
"Okay." Fu Zhaoning's lips were rosy. Hearing that he was so worried that she wouldn't be able to come back as scheduled, she laughed out loud. "If I don't come back, go and catch me."
Well, if she didn't come back on time, he would really go and arrest her.
No matter how reluctant we were, we still had to part.
Xiao Lanyuan rode on his horse, watching the team slowly go away. He turned his horse around and said, "Return to the city."
As soon as Fu Zhaoning left, the capital city felt empty when I returned there.
"Soak the letter so that the handwriting is blurred, and then stuff it back into the scar." Xiao Lanyuan instructed the secret guards, "Use the medicine the princess gave you."
"yes."
After Fu Zhaoning knew that the letter was taken out from the scar, he gave them a medicine that could speed up the healing of the wound.
Before, Xiao Lanyuan had already used the best drug-stopping powder after cutting the wound.
Now that the wound had stopped bleeding, the letter was stuffed back into his pocket, the wound was treated, and the man was thrown back into the jail.
At this time, Ge Muguang finally managed to escape from the villa.
It wasn't that he didn't want to leave quickly, the main reason was that Mrs. Tang had a fever after a night of crazy time with him.
He didn't dare to take her back. After all, they each had their own families. Although her husband was a sickly man, he was also a well-known figure, and he had two brothers who acted impulsively. If they knew about this, they would definitely make a big fuss.
It will be difficult to clean up then.
So he had no choice but to go and ask for a doctor himself, get the medicine and take care of Mrs. Tang for half a day.
It was past noon when he left.
Ge Muguang hurried back home, took a shower and changed his clothes, and was then pulled aside by his old father and questioned for a long time.
He had finally made the trip back to the capital, and he suddenly came back without saying a word. After coming back, he took a shower, changed his clothes and wanted to leave. How could that be possible?
Mr. Ge pulled him aside and asked him a lot of questions. He said he was very hungry and had another reunion dinner.
"Then you have to go to the palace to see the emperor first, right?" Mr. Ge finally let the man go and said this.
Only then did Ge Muguang rush to the palace to ask to see the emperor.
By the time the emperor met him, it was already afternoon, after all, the emperor was still taking a nap.
"Ge Muguang, aren't you guarding Hucheng? I didn't summon you back to the capital, so how dare you come back on your own?" The emperor said in a bad tone.
Ge Muguang was still shocked by the emperor's change.
He hadn't seen the emperor for two or three years. When he saw the emperor this time, he felt that the emperor seemed to have aged ten years, and was as white and fat as a steamed bun, which was not normal.
But there are imperial doctors in the palace, and what the emperor eats and drinks are strictly checked, so there will definitely be no problems.
He was still in shock when he heard the emperor's question, which was tinged with anger. He shuddered and quickly came to his senses.
"Your Majesty, I have come back to report the military situation!"
"Haven't you been writing memorials?" Is it necessary for someone to come in person?
Coming in person, it felt like he was being forced to deal with it. The emperor didn't like this feeling very much.
Ge Muguang couldn't help but complain in his heart.
They kept sending urgent reports and memorials to the capital, but at least there should be a response, right? The letters they sent in time and time again were like a drop in the ocean, with no response at all. What should they do?
Didn’t the general send him here?
But Ge Muguang did not dare to question the emperor, so he had to take out the letter again and hand it over with both hands.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to report. The situation in Hucheng is not very good. I can't wait any longer. In addition, due to the heavy snow in the past few months, I am worried that the roads will be difficult to travel and the post station will delay sending letters. That's why the general sent me back to the capital."
The emperor rolled his eyes and then signaled the eunuch to bring the letter.
This letter is quite thick.
After opening it, the emperor saw the densely written contents and felt a headache before he could even read the contents clearly.
"Tell me what the situation is."
"Yes." Although Ge Muguang felt that the letter had reached the emperor's hands and he had not read it yet, he had no choice but to talk about the situation in Hucheng.
"After King Helian led his men to capture Hucheng, the general led us to attack Hucheng several times, but we were afraid that the people in the city would be bombarded by war, so we did not dare to attack the city too forcefully."
"Later, we thought of changing our strategy and preparing to besiege them. When they ran out of food and grass, they would naturally open the city gates and surrender. This way, we wouldn't lose a single soldier. After all, Hucheng is also our own city."
The emperor nodded. He agreed when he received the news.
As long as there is no fighting, everything will be fine.
"Well, what's going on now? Has King Helian surrendered?"
We've been besieging them for more than half a year, there should be a result, right?
"But we just discovered some time ago that there are actually tunnels in Hucheng!" Ge Muguang said, "We arrested two Helian people and tortured them to extract confessions. We finally found out that the tunnels are interconnected and run through Hucheng. They can send people out through the tunnels, and we don't know where the exit will be. No one will know."
"They came out of the tunnel. Did they escape? Then Hucheng is safe?" asked the emperor.
Anyway, as long as the people of the Helian tribe leave Hucheng, the army can directly attack and kill them. What's the problem?
Could it be that his soldiers could not defeat people from a small tribe?
"They are very cunning, and we haven't figured out the exits of those tunnels yet, so it's hard to catch them. The people of the Helian tribe didn't want to abandon Hucheng, so after they came out of the tunnels, they didn't leave, but went to look for food."
"Where can I find it?"
The emperor was furious when he heard this. Could it be that Ge Muguang was coming to tell him that all the soldiers were in Hucheng and were being played around by the people of the Helian tribe?
"Your Majesty, someone is helping the people of the Helian tribe. We learned that someone told them about the tunnel! Moreover, that group of people is even more insidious and cunning. They have attacked our military camp several times. They burned food and poisoned horses! So we are exhausted from dealing with them."
"What? Who is that?"
"Before I returned to Beijing, the general sent someone to investigate—"
"That means we haven't found out the truth yet! After all this time, we still can't even find out where the other party came from. What use do I have for you?!"
The emperor slammed the table.
Hiss, my hand hurts.
