Chapter 150 Changing Destiny
Su Fengyi saw the visitor and asked in surprise:
"When did General Shen come back? Why didn't I hear any news from the Ministry of War?"
Shen Quan didn't expect to see the eldest princess as soon as he entered the Wangyue Pavilion. He subconsciously walked towards her with a smile on his face:
"After I killed Zuo Xian Wang, I set out to return to the capital. The urgent memorial from the Ministry of War, which is eight hundred miles away, is probably still behind. It should arrive in the afternoon at the earliest, or tomorrow at the latest."
When Shen Quan attacked Zuo Xian Wang's court that day, Zuo Xian Wang was lucky because he happened to be drinking in a small tribe next door that day and escaped.
On his way back to the royal court after drinking, Zuo Xian Wang heard the news that the royal court had been breached. Without even turning back to take a look, he abandoned his wife and children and ran away.
Since he had already promised Su Fengyi to kill Zuo Xian Wang to make her happy, how could Shen Quan give up halfway? He appointed Qian Baihu as his personal attendant and took elite soldiers to chase him personally.
Relying on Qian Baihu's tracking skills, Shen Quan and his group kept close to Zuo Xian Wang, rushing for thousands of miles, all the way to the border between Beilu and Wusi State, where they caught up with Zuo Xian Wang and chopped him off his horse with an axe.
After killing Zuo Xian Wang, Shen Quan left the battlefield, took off his armor, and left the aftermath to his deputy general. He found a box, sprinkled lime on it, put Zuo Xian Wang's head in it, and was about to leave.
This time, it was Deputy General Ye who followed Chen Quan to fight Zuo Xian Wang. When Deputy General Ye saw that Chen Quan was about to run away after leaving the battlefield, he disagreed and protested:
"If you leave now, who will write the battle report?"
Most military generals, when asked to go to the battlefield to kill people, would do so without hesitation, picking up their swords and charging forward without hesitation.
But if he was asked to write a short essay to ask for credit and reward after leaving the battlefield, it would be simply the end of him.
Every time there is a war, among all the tasks, writing battle reports is the one that everyone tries to avoid.
In the past, it was General Shen who wrote the letters himself. Now that General Shen wants to run away, how can Lieutenant General Ye agree to it?
Shen Quan didn't care about him. After packing up the gift for the princess in the capital, which was the head of Zuo Xian Wang, he jumped on the horse, pulled the reins, and said to Deputy General Ye as a matter of course:
"You write."
Deputy General Ye was about to explode:
“Why should I write it!”
Why?
Shen Quan was just waiting for him to ask!
Shen Quan gave him a mocking smile:
"Just because I have people waiting for me, do you have people waiting for you?"
Deputy General Ye didn't have one. Not only did he have no one waiting for him, he was also ridiculed by General Shen, and he had to stay behind to write a battle report. He felt that he was extremely miserable.
Deputy General Ye was really furious this time, and howled:
"Get out! It's amazing that someone is waiting for you! Get out now!"
The sound of General Shen's laughter could be heard from afar, and he had already ridden away on his horse.
Chen Quan was eager to return home, and he traveled day and night, running faster than the urgent report from the Ministry of War that traveled 800 miles. He finally arrived back in the capital and rushed into the Princess's Mansion in one breath.
Seeing Su Fengyi, Shen Quan subconsciously walked towards her.
When he went out to fight, it was still summer, but when he returned, the autumn wind was already howling and winter was about to come.
One day without seeing each other felt like three years. With a summer and an autumn between them, Shen Quan felt that tens of millions of years had passed between him and her.
Shen Quan's eyes fell on Su Fengyi, and he could no longer see anyone else in the world. He walked and laughed, and after just a few steps, he became happier and happier, and he could no longer control the extent of his smile.
Shen Quan went from smiling slightly to smiling brightly in just a few steps until he reached the sky full of fireworks.
When he was five steps away from Su Fengyi, Shen Quan remembered that he had been traveling for the past few days and had not changed his clothes. He was really sloppy, so he took another step back.
"Shen's outfit is really unsightly. I'll go get it ready first and then come to see Your Highness."
Su Fengyi took a closer look and saw that Shen Quan's clothes were still stained with blood. It was obvious that he had just come from the battlefield, so she said:
"Okay, okay, okay, General Shen has fought hard for the country. You should have a good rest first. I will host a welcoming party for you in the evening."
Shen Quan wanted to say, it’s to make you happy, but before he could reply, Taoist Qingfeng had already walked over from behind Su Fengyi.
Taoist Qingfeng passed Su Fengyi and protected her behind him, then grabbed Shen Quan's hand and pressed the pulse point on his hand.
If someone else had approached Shen Quan so rashly and dared to touch his vital parts, he would have been thrown away by Shen Quan with a back throw long ago.
But when he saw that the person coming was Taoist Qingfeng, Shen Quan let him take it and said with a smile:
"Master Imperial Master? It's been many years since we last met."
Taoist Qingfeng felt Shen Quan's pulse, which was sonorous and strong, and was the pulse of a living person.
The person standing in front of him was clearly a living person, but he actually had the evil aura of a living dead. It was simply unbelievable!
In the past, Taoist Qingfeng traveled all over the country, spring, summer, autumn and winter, in order to study the art of bringing the dead back to life, but to no avail.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, when he had given up long ago and was willing to return to Miaojiang to live in seclusion, he saw this wonder of the world as soon as he came out of the mountains.
Taoist Qingfeng released Shen Quan's pulse and said:
"General, can I tell you your fortune?"
General Shen was a military commander whose main job was to kill people and fight wars. He no longer believed in gods, Buddhas, divination, or fortune-telling.
For a military general, it is better to trust the weapons in his hands than this.
But the Grand Master took the initiative to ask for divination, and Chen Quan couldn't refuse him, so he said:
"Thank you, Master Imperial Master."
Taoist Qingfeng calculated three times for Shen Quan, but no matter how he calculated, Shen Quan's fate was doomed and there was no possibility of him surviving!
Someone changed General Shen's fate.
Taizu, it turns out that you were not wrong back then, it was me who was wrong. There really is such a miraculous person in this world who can bring the dead back to life and change people's fate!
Taoist Qingfeng patted Shen Quan on the shoulder:
"General Shen, with the help of a noble person, you will surely be blessed in the future."
Then he said to Su Fengyi:
"Your Highness, I couldn't find him among the crowd, but when I turned around, I saw the place where the lights were dimming, and that was it.
It all depends on what decision Your Highness makes."
Su Fengyi immediately realized the meaning behind Taoist Qingfeng's words.
That’s right, General Shen should have died half a year ago.
A person who had killed countless people, who should have been dead but was alive again, was right in front of her.
The Hehuan Gu can be cured, and the antidote to the Hehuan Gu is none other than General Shen!
When Shen Quan heard that Taoist Qingfeng and the princess had something else in their words, he was about to ask them when the servant had already brought the hot water.
So Su Fengyi said to him:
"General Shen, please come to the study when you have packed up. I have something to tell you."
Su Fengyi spoke sincerely, and Shen Quan’s heart started thumping when he heard this.
His Highness said he had something to tell me. What was it? He wanted to tell me.
Shen Quan felt his mouth dry and blurted out:
"Okay, Your Highness, please wait a moment. I will be here later. It's just right. I also have something to say to Your Highness."
Shen Quan touched his wildly beating heart and thought to himself, if the eldest princess meant, then how could she let a girl speak first in such a speech.
Then later, it would be appropriate for him, as a man, to speak first!
