The commander was silent for a moment before he said, "Your highness, I'm afraid that the rumor will not settle if I am the one to clear it."
Hearing that, Yun Shang moved her fingers. She was distracted by Prince Jing's news. She hadn't thought of anything that the commander could think of. It was probably the same trick by Liu Yinfeng as that. It was set on her. As soon as the rumor came out, he must be sure to know that she was the only one who could settle down the army, because she was not only prince Jing's wife, but also the princess of the state of Ning.
Liu Yinfeng wanted to stall her and prevent her from bringing her troops to save Prince Jing. Now that the other generals were all scattered, and she had no one in her hands
"Qian Yin." Yun Shang turned to Qian Yin, "lead the army..." Yun Shang stopped before she could finish her sentence. Qian Yin was just a maid, and she couldn't summon the hundred thousand troops at all. Moreover, Liu Yinfeng was good at using the array, but Qian Yin didn't know anything about it. If she accidentally got into Liu Yinfeng's killing array, it would be a dead end.
"Your Highness..." Qian Yin looked at Yun Shang confusedly.
Yun Shang gritted her teeth, got on the horse, turned it around and said loudly, "all the soldiers take a rest here. I'll be back soon." Then he galloped down the mountain.
In the thick forest at the foot of the mountain, a large group of soldiers stood there arguing.
"The enemy wants to bewitch the soldiers in this way. If you do this, you will be trapped." Wang Chong said anxiously.
The vice general nodded and said, "but, general, the rumor did shake our morale. There are thousands of soldiers in the Xia army. They are saying everywhere that Prince Jing is the eldest prince of the state of Xia. If that's the case, then we... are doing this for nothing? "
"Stupid! How could Prince Jing be the prince of the state of Xia?" Wang Chong asked, pacing back and forth.
Suddenly, a sound of horse's hooves came. Wang Chong stood up immediately and commanded, "attention! The whole troops!"
People sitting or standing behind all stood up, t
d, "Your Highness, the shadow guards heard the sound of fighting deep in the mountain."
Yun Shang frowned, and without taking a sip of water, she hurriedly went deeper with her army.
There were traces left by the secret guards, and corpses were all over the way. Yun Shang was not in the mood to know which side died more, only to ask the soldiers behind her to speed up.
The closer they walked to the mountain, the colder they felt. Yun Shang gathered her cloak to stay warm, and frowned. It had been two hours. On the way, they only saw the dead body, but not even the sound of fighting.
"Your Highness!" Yun Shang heard Qian Yin's voice. Qian Yin and several hundred maids were leading the way. Yun Shang's heart sank when she saw Qian Yin's pale face. "What happened?"
"Your Highness, I saw The body of a shadow guard beside his highness. " Qian Yin said gently.
Yun Shang clenched her fists. It was hard to tell whether she was happy or sad. Fortunately, it wasn't Luo Qingyan's body. However, Prince Jing's bodyguards were always hidden well and rarely appeared. If they were to appear, it must be because of Prince Jing. The secret guard was dead... This meant that Prince Jing was not only in danger, but also in great danger.
"Keep going!" Yun Shang said loudly, but she went out of the line and walked to the front. She wanted to be the first one to see Prince Jing no matter if he is alive... Or dead...
