"Except this one?" After the Emperor Xuanyuan heard Xuanyuan Rui's explanation, he asked again. He didn't believe that Xuanyuan Rui simply wanted to come back and see the injured Xuanyuan Chen.
Xuanyuan Rui smiled slightly, and his handsome face immediately lit up, the aura of a noble slowly emitting out of his body, and said: "Chen Er's wife rushed to the Mo Bei, as Chen Er's royal brother, no matter what, I cannot stay out of this matter."
"Now that the three hundred thousand Army of Chu s have gone south and are setting up camp in Jiang Prefecture, with only fifty thousand troops and horses in Jiang Prefecture, how could they stop the three hundred thousand elite soldiers? I implore my father to send my son to Jiang Prefecture to guard the city. Defend the territory and the people of the Heavenly Sage. "
He spoke with righteousness and his words surged with passion.
Xuanyuan Chen's wife was willing to sacrifice her head to shed hot blood, yet he, as a prince of the imperial family, could only hide and hide.
Emperor Xuanyuan stared fixedly at Xuanyuan Rui, wanting to clearly see this person in detail.
Xuanyuan Rui was his favorite successor, one that he had painstakingly nurtured personally. But because of certain reasons, he had no choice but to leave his hometown and hide his name.
But at that moment, for Xuanyuan Chen, for the Heavenly Saint, Xuanyuan Rui was actually able to do such a thing. Once Xuanyuan Rui showed his true face, then everything had to be rewritten.
However …
Facing such a Xuanyuan Rui, Emperor Xuanyuan really couldn't bring himself to be ruthless. In the end, he was defeated by the unswerving determination and conviction in Xuanyuan Rui's eyes.
He let out a long sigh and said: "I agree to your request. A good man has his heart set on the battlefield, you can throw his head, and blood can be spilled. Rui Er is indeed a descendant of the royal family."
Worthy of being the heir he had once favored the most.
Currently, almost half of the Heavenly Sage's forces were on Mo Bei, and not long ago, he had deployed another fifty thousand troops to support the Jiang Prefecture. Currently, only one hundred and fifty thousand troops remained, adding the fifty thousand guards.
The Emperor Xuanyuan called for fifty thousand troops to send Xuanyuan Rui to the Jiang Prefecture to assist him.
After learning of the news, Zhangsun Wenyan did not shout like she had imagined, nor did she cause a ruckus. Instead, she sat obediently in the Queen Zhangsun's chamber hall.
Hearing this, he only paused for a moment. He accidentally pricked his finger with an embroidery needle, leaving behind a drop of blood that dyed the embroidered handkerchief red.
Queen Zhangsun sat beside Zhangsun Wenyan, patted Zhangsun Wenyan's shoulders and comforted him in a small voice, "As descendants of the Xuanyuan Imperial Family, all of this is their unavoidable responsibility."
It was the people of the Heavenly Saints who had given them the supreme authority and honor, so they should also bear the responsibility and burden for the people of the Heavenly Saints.
Hearing that, Zhangsun Wenyan revealed a smile, her elegant and dignified appearance unexpectedly dazzling with beauty at this moment. Nodding heavily, Zhangsun Wenyan said softly, "Aunt, I understand. "A Rui is just going to complete his mission. The only thing I can do is wait here for him to return."
She had never been one of those women who did not understand what was going on. In the past, she would always stand guard over Xuanyuan Rui under absolutely hopeless circumstances. Now, she would definitely continue to stand guard over him.
Moreover, right now, his relationship with Xuanyuan Rui had already crystallized. After the little fellow is born, his father will probably return triumphantly.
He gently caressed his belly. His face was gentle, and it emitted a maternal lustre.
Seeing that, Queen Zhangsun relaxed her heart, but she was still secretly worried for Xuanyuan Rui's safety. After all, none of them could endure the pain of losing Xuanyuan Rui once again.
With fifty thousand troops and horses, Xuanyuan Rui majestically set out from the city gate towards the southern part of the Jiang Prefecture. His injuries had already started to heal, and he knew that his royal brother was leading his troops to war.
Ignoring the wounds on his body, he had long been waiting for Xuanyuan Rui on the city gate tower.
Seeing the familiar figure that gradually walked out of the city gate, Xuanyuan Chen restrained the emotions in his heart, and stared fixedly at Xuanyuan Rui's back, watching him leave.
Just when Xuanyuan Chen thought that Xuanyuan Rui would never look back, Xuanyuan Rui turned back and looked at him with a gaze as gentle as a breeze.
Seeing that, Xuanyuan Chen smirked, and looked straight into Xuanyuan Rui's eyes. Xuanyuan Rui nodded, then turned and left.
Xuanyuan Rui's figure gradually became blurry within his line of sight, condensed into a small black dot, and then completely disappeared from his line of sight.
Xuanyuan Chen then turned and left.
Xie Qingrong frowned, as if she wanted to stare at the map on the table and create a black hole. Shen Haoxuan felt a bit helpless as he stood beside Xie Qingrong and waved his fan.
If one looked carefully, they would be able to see the anxiety in Shen Haoxuan's eyes.
"Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" Xie Qingrong's gloomy voice came out.
Shen Haoxuan's brows deeply furrowed, his expression somewhat heavy, and he replied: "I'm sure. I personally witnessed Wu Huan's twenty people escorting food into a valley, before completely disappearing without a trace. "
"At first, I thought there was something in the valley, but when it got dark and I went to check again, I found nothing in the valley, so I suspected that there must be some sort of trap."
Otherwise, where would the food be shipped to?
Why did the deep rut marks in the valley disappear halfway? It was as if they had vanished into thin air.
There must be some trap in the valley!
Xie Qingrong held the pen in her hand and closed her lips tightly. She stared fixedly at the place as if she wanted to see through everything in the valley.
In the end, he threw the pen to the side and leaned back on the chair. He lightly tapped his temple with his finger and lowered his head to mutter to himself.
Suddenly, as if suddenly enlightened, he stood up from his chair and looked over the map again. He then drew all the terrain around the valley with black charcoal.
Seeing the black line diagram, Xie Qingrong finally smiled with satisfaction and said to Shen Haoxuan: "We've finally found the one that is delivering the food. Likely, it was not because of the traps in the valley. Rather, it was because they had set up such a suspicious formation, all for the sake of deceiving everyone. If my guess is right, the food that they are transporting should be by water. "
Waterway?
When Shen Haoxuan heard these two words, it seemed as if there was an answer in his eyes that was about to burst out.
Xie Qingrong clapped her hands, used a handkerchief to wipe the black ink on her fingertips that was left from the carbon brush, and said indifferently: "Tomorrow, I will go to that valley to check it out. At that time, you must lead the way ahead and bring me through all the routes the other party has taken."
Only in this way could she find out what the secret behind this valley was.
Shen Haoxuan nodded his head, the tasseled fan in his hands had already been retracted, and his gaze once again looked at the black line that Xie Qingrong was aiming at, as a thought seemed to flash past her mind.
