Chapter 220 Unbearable Pain
"Brother Wu Chang, please don't say these things carelessly. If someone reports you, you'll have your tongue ripped out!"
Ding Gui thought about the information he had received. If this rumor was true, it would be a disaster for the Tang Dynasty!
Could it be that these soldiers who fought so hard were fighting for an emperor who was a little cuckolded and a fake prince?
Although there are many melodramatic palace drama plots in TV dramas, only when he is in it will he realize how difficult it is to accept.
Not to mention Lu Chenhe and Yun Liu!
Unexpectedly, the sergeant patted his chest with a fearless look and said, "What are you afraid of? This has spread among the people. Everyone knows that there is a fake prince in our court."
“…”
"Alright, we know enough. Please go back first, Sergeant!"
Lu Chenhe had a cold face. He would never accept this and was sure that it must be fake.
The sergeant stood up, dusted himself off, and clasped his fists before leaving: "I've been honest with you three, telling you the truth. You three should treat me like a brother. If you really want to escape, take me with you. I don't want to fight a battle like this."
The three of them were stunned again: "..."
"No wonder the Qi and Yan armies have suffered repeated defeats. Although this sergeant only expressed his own opinion, it's hard to guarantee that everyone shares the same view. The soldiers are so negative, how can they possibly have the will to fight?"
Yun Liu broke the brief silence and shook his head with a sigh: "If this continues, not only will General Minyuan be defeated, but even the destruction of Qi and Yan will only be a matter of time."
He was right. According to Ding Gui's understanding, Qi and Yan almost destroyed the country. As for what happened afterwards, there was no detailed description.
Ding Gui was so anxious that he was at a loss for words. He had only one thought in his mind: "Escape, Master Eldest and Master Third, you have to escape."
But Lu Chenhe's current political views are completely different from his.
How can a man be a coward when the country is in danger?
Just for Xiaodie's sake, he didn't say the angry words in his heart, but turned around and left.
Yun Liu, who stayed behind, could only pat his shoulder and comfort him: "Uncle Ding, you have seen it too. My eldest brother and father are probably determined to stay and help General Min Yuan. I can't abandon them. Why don't you take the others and escape. We will help you find an opportunity."
Ding Gui felt heartbroken. How could he escape by himself and ignore others?
If he had a choice, he would rather be the one to stay and fight. As long as he could save these young people, he would be willing to do so.
Ding Gui looked up at Yun Liu and thought that this man grew up with the Bingdong people, and with the knowledge of the Bingdong people, his thoughts must be much more open. Why not... he thought, why not tell him the truth?
But just as he was about to speak, he heard someone shouting in front of him: "General, there is a little girl who claims to be a fairy and wants to come to the camp to see you."
Little girl?
Fairy???
Ding Gui suddenly had a bad feeling...
The story begins yesterday.
After Ding Xiaodie and Lu Xingluo discussed whether to lead the team to continue moving forward, she racked her brains and tried hard to think about the little historical knowledge she had learned, and finally came to the same conclusion as her father Ding Gui.
General Minyuan will definitely lose this battle, and his defeat will be complete.
You must know that General Minyuan's army is the foundation of the country. After his defeat this time, there was no more general in the court, so the desert soldiers invaded even more aggressively. In the end, they almost destroyed Qi and Yan.
This is all written in history books, although only in a few words.
But the fate of tens of millions of people among them can be imagined. They were starved to death, killed, separated from their wives and children, and their families were destroyed. In the blink of an eye, the world became like hell.
After Ding Xiaodie figured it out, she was shocked. The consequence was no longer about whether the three of them could survive. Just thinking about the people around her having to go through this made her feel so uncomfortable that she couldn't breathe.
"Xiaodie, what are you doing?"
When Zhang Xiu came back from outside, she saw her daughter squatting under the eaves thinking about something. She went up to her and patted her shoulder, but when she turned around, her daughter's eyes were filled with tears.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Xiu was startled.
Ding Xiaodie tried hard to control her tears: "Mom, we have to go, leave now."
Zhang Xiu knows her daughter best. She has always been strong and doesn't cry easily.
But at this moment, she could actually say such words, so something must have happened. Her heart skipped a beat: "Is it your father?"
"No, my father is fine, but I have to go back to Yangliu Town. You and the other aunts should lead the team and leave quickly, the sooner the better." Ding Xiaodie's eyes had regained their calm and sharpness, and her whole body exuded a convincing power.
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Xiu would have pursued the matter thoroughly, but now she just wanted to know that the man was still alive. Moreover, she believed in her daughter and could not be a stumbling block to her, so she said, "I'll go inform them."
"Xiaodie."
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Erbao ran in hurriedly: "Xiaodie, the old ancestor is not feeling well, auntie... auntie, please go see the old ancestor!"
"What happened to the ancestor?"
"I don't know. He said he had a stomachache early in the morning."
How did this matter come to Zhang Xiu? It turned out that Ding Xiaodie had said recently that everything she did was taught by her parents, and Zhang Xiu also did things differently from before. Over time, the couple gradually gained their own prestige in the village.
The village chief is not here now, and no one knows what to do with such a serious matter as the ancestor's illness. Yang naturally asked Erbao to quickly call Zhang Xiu and ask her to think of a solution.
Zhang Xiu was so anxious that she was sweating. How could she cure any disease?
The situation was urgent, Ding Xiaodie pulled her hand and said, "Mom, you go first, I'll come find you later."
Zhang Xiu understood that she couldn't do this without her daughter, but she had to put on a show in front of the villagers, so she quickly followed Erbao.
After the two of them walked away, Ding Xiaodie went to the space to get medicine.
To be honest, the people of Aozi Village are worthy of being from the mountains. Maybe their food and clothes are not very good, but their bodies are really strong. After walking for so long, except for those who died of malnutrition, starvation or sudden death, almost no one has any minor illness.
It just so happened that there were only some common medicines in Ding Xiaodie's space, so she had never used them.
As for the reason why the ancestor had stomachaches recently, she guessed it was because he had eaten meat for too long.
When there was no meat to eat before, they looked forward to eating meat every day. But after the night of the attack on the Bingdong Tiankeng, their team was so poor that they only had meat left.
After such a long time, even the young people could not bear it, let alone the ninety-year-old ancestor.
Ding Xiaodie hurriedly took out the digestive and stomachic medicines and ground them into powder. She also arranged for Ding Xiang to look after her grandmother, and then hurried to her ancestor's house.
When Zhang Xiu arrived at the old ancestor's house, he saw that although the old lady looked haggard, she was still in high spirits. She was worthy of being an old ancestor with a noble demeanor. Even if she was not feeling well, she would still have the energy and spirit to hold on.
Surrounding her were her anxious family, including Yang Dishi, Dabao and Erbao, as well as several women from the village who were on good terms with her. Since the backbone of the family, Village Chief Lai Fu, was not there, they were all at their wits' end.
