Ye Qingwan came out of Liu Mansion and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was not right.
Judging from what he said, it was clear that he wanted Xia Xuejian to misunderstand. The plot made sense, but his character didn’t?
Who would intentionally create misunderstandings?
"What are you thinking about?" Ning Shaoqing came closer and found that she had been covering her cheek with her hand: "Does your tooth hurt? Let's see."
Ye Qingwan stared at Ning Shaoqing: "Qingqing, kiss me."
Ning Shaoqing:? ?
Section 138
The tips of his ears turned red instantly, and he stuttered: "W-what... do you want to do?"
"I'm not thinking about anything, just kiss me, quickly." After saying that, she leaned her cheek forward for him to kiss.
Ning Shaoqing swallowed his saliva and said, "I, I, I really kissed her."
"Hurry up."
Ning Shaoqing took a deep breath, straightened her face, and kissed her instantly.
Ye Qingwan felt something touching her lips and was stunned for a moment. Then she instinctively pushed him away and stared at him in horror: "What are you doing?"
Ning Shaoqing was pushed down on the carriage, looking at her in panic and grievance: "Didn't you let me kiss you?"
"I..." Ye Qingwan was almost mad: "I asked you to kiss my cheek, I put my face close to you, where did you kiss me?"
Ning Shaoqing choked instantly, knowing that he had misunderstood. So he bit his thumb helplessly and silently reached out to pull her sleeve: "Don't be angry, didn't you make it clear? How about I kiss her cheek again?"
toothache.
I want to bite someone...but hold it in, we are gentlemen.
The next second, a resounding scream came from the carriage: "Ah... it hurts, it hurts, be gentle, you are a dog..."
Early the next morning, Liu Sheng assembled his army and set out. The emperor selected 100,000 soldiers in the capital and gave them to Liu Sheng to lead. The prime minister and others went to the city gate to see him off.
After a few brief instructions, Liu Sheng mounted his horse and left.
Before leaving, he looked back and saw a red figure standing on the city wall, his clothes fluttering in the wind, looking unrestrained and matching his red armor.
He knew who it was, smiled and waved at her, then turned around and rode away on his horse.
The south is in chaos right now. They haven't received any news from King Xiang for a long time. Something big must have happened. He has to rush to the south as soon as possible to control the situation.
Ye Qingwan stood on the city wall, looking at the red armor shining in the sunlight like a dazzling meteor.
[Old Master, please stop pretending to be such a cool person. This is just like setting a flag. In TV dramas, they usually say, "I will come back to marry you after I win the battle," and then they will die. It's an old routine.]
When Ye Qingwan thought of this, she became restless. I hope the old tutor will not die.
[I can't sleep, my chest feels stuffy, and my head hurts a bit.]
[But was he in such a hurry to go to the south just to save that stupid old King Xiang?
I remember that up to this point in the plot, King Xiang was defeated and surrounded, with no food or water, and nearly lost his life, but was saved by the new general who replaced him. 】
[So the one who saved him now is the old tutor? As expected, the old tutor and the King of Xiang are the true love. ]
[It seemed as if the door to a new world had opened up all of a sudden. 】
At this time, King Xiang was trapped in an isolated city: ...
Ye Qingwan, I advise you not to speak if you don't know how to speak.
But he was still very happy because they would have reinforcements arriving soon.
"Soldiers, our Dayu's reinforcements are on the way. Everyone, conserve your energy, stay where you are, and wait for reinforcements."
"Reinforcements?" When the soldiers heard that reinforcements were coming, they immediately became excited.
But he soon became worried again: "General, the army is lazy and the soldiers are running away or surrendering. Where will the reinforcements come from?"
King Xiang looked towards the capital city confidently: "It will happen. The imperial court has not given up on us."
When everyone saw that King Xiang was so confident, they immediately boosted their morale, held their ground and waited for reinforcements.
But the rebels also got the news: "What did you say? The one coming to help is not the prime minister, but the current imperial tutor Liu Sheng? Isn't he a civil servant?"
Civil officials leading troops to fight? Is this emperor sick?
"Yes, client. We don't know what the court is thinking."
"No matter what they think, give the order, and send out the entire army to attack. We must annihilate the remaining troops of King Xiang tonight. Whoever can take King Xiang's head will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold."
After receiving the military order, they mobilized the entire army and pressed down on the walls of the isolated city. Twenty thousand troops encircled the city from the left and right wings, and thirty thousand troops attacked from the front.
King Xiang now has less than 3,000 soldiers left. Even if he occupies a natural barrier, he will definitely not be able to withstand tonight.
As soon as they moved, King Xiang noticed it and immediately organized his troops: "All soldiers, listen up, guard the city gates to the death, and never let them in."
Thirty thousand rebels rushed head-on, with crossbows and fireballs at the back providing cover, constantly flying towards their city walls.
Even so, the soldiers on the city wall continued to shoot arrows, throw stones, pour kerosene, and use everything they could to prevent the rebels from approaching the city gate.
But the rebels still fought their way through and pushed the battering ram in.
one time.
"Boom boom"
Two times, they kept hitting the heavy red painted wooden door.
King Xiang and others were watching from under the city gate. The heavy wooden door, which had been extremely solid, was shaking little by little.
"Your Highness, please go." The deputy general suddenly jumped out and said, "This will be given to me."
"Yes, Your Highness, you go ahead and leave this to us." The soldiers also jumped out and wanted to get King Xiang on his horse and escort him away.
They knew very well that the city could not be defended.
But the King of Xiang shook off the soldiers who were trying to force him onto his horse, drew out his sword, and shouted, "I, Dayu, only have princes who died in battle, not cowards who run away."
"This is the last natural barrier for my Yu the Great to reach the south of the Yangtze River. If we lose, the rebels will be able to attack and march straight to the south of the Yangtze River. All the people in the south of the Yangtze River, our elders and fellow countrymen, will become meat on the chopping board of the rebels and be slaughtered at will."
"So, as long as I am still alive, I will not let them set foot through the city gate. The city survives as long as the people live, and the city dies as long as the people live."
As soon as King Xiang finished his inspiring words, the remaining 2,000 soldiers immediately responded loudly: "The city survives as long as the people are there. If the city is destroyed, the people will die."
"If the city survives, the people will live; if the city perishes, the people will die."
"If the city survives, the people will live; if the city perishes, the people will die."
Loud slogans echoed continuously in the isolated city.
These two thousand people were soldiers who had followed King Xiang in battle for many years. No matter how others evaluated King Xiang, in their eyes, King Xiang was their faith.
If King Xiang wanted to fight to the death, then they would accompany him and die on the battlefield.
Listening to the inspiring slogans of the soldiers, King Xiang was very pleased. He raised his sword and stood at the front: "Soldiers, those who are willing to accompany me to kill the enemy, stand up. Those who are afraid of death can leave now."
All the soldiers drew their swords and immediately followed King Xiang to stand in front of the city gate, shouting loudly: "Kill, kill, kill!"
Amid the shouts, the city gate finally collapsed with a loud bang.
At the same time, countless rebels rushed in with swords and guns in hand.
King Xiang led the charge and rushed out with a sword in hand: "Kill."
Two thousand soldiers immediately responded: "Kill."
Suddenly, the two groups fought each other, and it was difficult to tell who was who.
