The palace is quiet, and the empress of the cold palace is acting as a demon

Chapter 102 Yingyang City Breaks
After defending the city No. 20 for five days, the military rations in the granary in the city were almost bottomed out.

In the early morning, the enemy's shouts of killing came again, and the soldiers defending the city were speechless. They tried their best to support their bodies and dragged their weapons to face outside the city wall.

Even if Qin Wan hadn't experienced war much, she knew clearly at this moment that it would be easy to use the arms of a mantis as a cart to resist the torrent of troops outside the city with the remaining defenders in the city alone.

The tattered city wall is obviously not enough to protect anyone, and Xidi's army will attack Yingyang City within three days.

Without reinforcements, without food and grass, Qin Wan really felt that she would not be able to hold on.

Ning Yi was the only thing on her mind.

The only thing she thinks about every day and night is "When will you come back Ning Yi".

The soldiers also began to ask questions one by one, and gradually, rumors spread in the team that His Highness King Ning had abandoned Yingyang City.

At first, Qin Wan sharply accused those soldiers who said disheartening words, but later even she became suspicious.

When the ammunition and food were almost desperate, the sentinel suddenly sent news that a large army came from the northwest and was rushing towards Yingyang City.

Qin Wan was taken aback for a moment, then finally had hope in his eyes, and desperately climbed up the dilapidated city wall to look northwest.

Hearing this news, the soldiers guarding the city also became excited.

"His Royal Highness Prince Ning is back!"

"We are saved!"

"The reinforcements are here!"

……

Standing on the city wall, Qin Wan's hair and the hem of his clothes swayed with the wind.

She was full of hope, thinking about what kind of smile to greet Ning Yi, proud of it?Joyful?Or Wei Wei with complaints and anger...

But when the army approached, Qin Wan froze on the wall.

On the huge black military flag, there was a word "Su", which instantly shattered all Qin Wan's hopes.

The light in her eyes turned into a dead silence, and the whole person was almost blown away by the north wind.

Inside the city, people are still cheering for the arrival of reinforcements.

But the reinforcements were not Ning Yi, but Prince Xidi, the Eighth Prince Su Han.

"Ning Yi... when will you come back..." Qin Wan's voice was broken and out of tune in the wind.

……

Defending the city for 30 days, Yingyang City was broken.

Qin Wan, who was still helping the wounded when the enemy broke through the city, disappeared the moment the army poured in after the city was broken.

Lu Ling and Xiao Bai searched the entire Yingyang City, but they didn't see Qin Wan at all. She disappeared from the chaotic crowd as if she had disappeared out of thin air.

The army flooded into Yingyang City like a tide, and despite Liuying's cries and Luling's insistence, Xiaobai led the two of them out of the city with the last of his mana.

On November [-]st of the [-]nd year of Liang Guo, Ying Yang fell.

There were 7 Beirong defenders, with more than [-] casualties, and the rest were all captured. Except for the main generals, Su Han ordered all the prisoners to be killed.Immediately, the Xidi army entered the Yingyang Palace like bandits, and after robbing everything that could be looted, Su Rong set fire to the entire Yingyang City.

Yingyang Palace and Qin Wan's Lenggong were also burned in the fire.

News of the battle spread throughout Kyushu.

Everyone said that King Ning of Beirong gave up Yingyang in order to protect Hancheng.

Some people say that although Yingyang is the capital of the Liang Kingdom, in the eyes of King Ning, it is just one of the dozens of cities he built casually, and he will give it up if he abandons it.

Some people also said that Xidi was just trying to destroy the way of spice trade in the Central Plains, and didn't want to really want the land of Yingyang.His Royal Highness King Ning knew what Xidi was thinking, so he didn't rush to rescue him. After Xidi withdrew his troops, he would go back and rebuild the city.

But no matter what, Xidi dispatched troops this time. Although there was no record at Tongmenguan in the north, Yingyang won a big victory in the battle, which was enough to suppress the arrogance of Beirong's expansion, and also gave Beirong King Ning a small victory. Lesson, after all, King Beirong Ning has never lost a city.

Later, the two countries of Beirong and Xidi returned the captured generals to both sides in the form of returning prisoners of war.

Bai Zixian, Yuan Ying and others returned to the Beirong Army.

Then, the Bei Rong Army appeased the families of all the fallen soldiers, and within the next three months, determined the names and numbers of the last fallen soldiers.

Only Qin Wan's name was listed on the missing list.

……

In November of 78 in Sidi, heavy snow covered the entire Wusuer Desert, and the inland river flowing into Wusu Haizi was frozen, and ice floated on the river surface, making it cold and bleak.

On the day Yingyang City was broken, Qin Wan was knocked unconscious by a gravel.

When she woke up, it was already a few days later. Her eyes were covered with a black cloth, her mouth was strangled by cloth strips, and her hands and feet were all tied with hemp rope, which made her extremely painful.

She felt that she was in a carriage, and she could hear some kind of bell hanging on the corner of the carriage, like a camel bell or something.She stretched out her hands cautiously and tried to touch the surrounding things.The felted compartment wall was tied with cowhide ropes, and there was a sheepskin jug on the side. Qin Wan shook it and there was water in it. She opened the lid cautiously, and after smelling it, there was no strange smell, and held it up. Woke up and drank it.

She is not afraid of poison or medicine in the pot, because the person who captures her doesn't need to wait for her to wake up, no matter whether she wants to commit crimes or kill her.

The wound on the back of her head from being hit by a stone still hurt a little. She leaned against the wall of the carriage and sighed in despair.

She waited for a month, did not wait for Ning Yi, but waited for Xidi's reinforcements, who can ask for an argument for this matter.

Ning Yi made a choice before protecting Hancheng and her, which is enough to prove that her assertion that men are cold-blooded and rational is correct.Although men sometimes get angry, they usually deal with problems in a reasonable way at critical times.

So Qin Wan felt that if Ning Ye was overly harsh and did not respond to Yang Cheng's efforts to save her, it was just to find anger for herself, Qin Wan's heart would turn cold, and she would have nothing to complain about.

As for whether Ning Yi will come to save her, Qin Wan has not made a conclusion. First, she does not know whether Ning Yi knows that she is still alive; second, she does not know whether Ning Yi still cares whether she is alive; third, even if Ning Yi He also cares about whether she is alive or not, but whether he still has the ability and energy to send troops to Xidi to save her is not certain; fourth, even if Ning Yi sends troops to rescue her, whether he can really save her is another matter; fifth, if Ning Yi He also wanted to save her, so why didn't he go back to help Ying Yang directly, after all, she was still in Beirong at that time, and now she doesn't know where she is...

Qin Wan clearly listed five guesses about Ning Yi in her heart, and then she felt that Ning Yi could not be counted on.

When people live in this world, the only person they can rely on is themselves.

Then she pursed her lips and began to wonder where she was being taken.

The tactility of this car and this kettle obviously has the style of the Western Regions.

Qin Wan likes the Northwest. She has been to Yinchuan, Gansu, Qinghai and other Northwest provinces. She has seen the majesty of Qilian Mountain, the majesty of the Great Wall and the border gates.The grapes are very fragrant, the honeydew melon is very sweet, the roast lamb is simply delicious, and riding a camel is also a great life experience.

Wasn't it because she was arrested and sent to Xidi? If it was really for her to live a smooth sailing life in the cold palace of Yingyang City, Qin Wan felt that God would not go to such great lengths to give her a time travel.

She sighed and drank two more sips of water.

The car swayed forward, and finally stopped after she had slept twice.

The car curtain was lifted, and a gust of cold wind blew into the car, Qin Wan shrank from the cold and pricked up his ears.

Su Rong's clear voice rang out from outside the car: "Concubine Xiang, we are here, welcome to the capital of Xidi - Fangyuan City."
