Noble First Daughter-in-law

The night that was already silent became flustered again.

Shang Ruyi immediately asked Yu Wenye to lie on the bed, and asked Wo Xue to get a cold water towel, and originally wanted her to call for a doctor immediately, but Yu Wenye, whose breath was getting hotter, reached out to stop her.

He half-closed his reddened eyes, and said solemnly: "It's about this time, don't make trouble."

"...!"

Shang Ruyi was suddenly a little angry—what's the fuss?
It's obvious that he has a fever, so what's wrong with calling for a doctor?Even if he usually doesn't care about his body, he is carrying minor ailments and pains, but now he is in Fufeng, and Xue Xian is watching him outside. As a general, how can he care so little about his body?

Just when Shang Ruyi was about to reason with him, Yu Wenye frowned again and said in a low voice: "I am a general, so it would be bad to spread the news at this time."

"..."

Shang Ruyi was taken aback, but she came back to her senses.

Yes, he is a general.

Moreover, it was the general who had just won a complete victory, repelled tens of thousands of soldiers from Xue Xian, and restored the confidence of Fufeng's army and people. Right now, he is the spiritual pillar of everyone here, and their hope!

If the news of his illness spreads at this time, not to mention that if people outside the city know about it, they will immediately give them an opportunity. Just letting people inside the city know, these people will inevitably feel panicked again and become discouraged. lose confidence.

But—his illness can't be ignored.

Shang Ruyi thought for a while, then turned to Wo Xue and said, "Go to Dai Junliang, tell him to ask him to invite a doctor—"

Hearing this, Yu Wenye frowned. Although the low fever made him more dizzy and his body was a little soft, he still wanted to stand up to stop her, but before he could say anything, he heard Shang Ruyi say: "Follow me!" They said I was sick."

"..."

"Remember to tell them that I caught a cold while beating drums on the city tower. The doctor must stay with me for a few more days when the doctor comes. The doctor can't leave the official office until he recovers."

Wo Xue immediately said: "Your servant understands."

After speaking, he turned and ran out.

Only then did Shang Ruyi turn her head to look at Yu Wenye who was propping up her upper body on the bed, her face becoming paler and paler: "So, don't worry?"

"..."

Only then did Yu Wenye let out a long breath.

Fall back on the bed again.

With just this tossing, his body seemed to be a little weaker, and the breath he exhaled was hot. Even if he was still a little away from him, Shang Ruyi felt that the place on his cheek was a little hot when it was blown.

It's just that after a while, he seems to be a lot more serious than before.

So, she immediately took the towel sent by Wo Xue and soaked it in cold water, squeezed it moist, then began to wipe Yu Wenye's cheeks, red neck, and hot palms, and said softly: "You also know that you are General, you have a heavy responsibility, and you should not despise your own body. If you fall ill, who can the people of this city rely on?"

"..."

Yu Wenye did not speak.

The towel soaked in cold water rubbed against the hot skin, and the tingling feeling made the already weak man even more unbearable. He could only grit his teeth and endure it. After a long silence, he said softly, "I just feel strange."

Shang Ruyi looked up at him: "What's so strange?"

"Strange, why am I sick."

"..."

"Why do I fall ill at this time."

Shang Ruyi was annoyed and funny, took the towel and soaked it in water, wrung it and wiped his palms, and said, "How can a person not get sick if he eats five grains? Besides, you haven't taken care of yourself a few days ago. I have had a rest; when I came here today, not to mention a big fight with Xue Xian, I even ran into the river on horseback, and my whole body was soaked."

"..."

"So, is there anyone who doesn't catch a cold?"

Even though she said that, Yu Wenye frowned even tighter, and said solemnly: "But, I shouldn't be sick."

"..."

"In the past, I have been more tired, colder, and hotter than now. I have never been sick."

Shang Ruyi couldn't help but glared at him.

This person's body is indeed strong, but what is even tougher is his mouth.

And the more Yu Wenye said, the more unwilling he seemed to feel, the body that had already been lying on the bed began to move again, Shang Ruyi was in a hurry, so she could only throw away the towel, sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out her hand to hold his shoulder, and then bent over Waist, pressed his forehead to his forehead, and pressed him down.

"...!"

Yu Wenye choked for breath.

However, the hot breath emanating from his body still made Shang Ruyi, who was close at hand, feel hot, and her face turned slightly red involuntarily. With extremely fragile eyes, her gaze also began to flicker.

For a moment, the two people who were so close to each other felt a little unspeakable emotion.

However, no one moved.

It seems that I am afraid that at this moment, if I touch something, it will be really irreversible.

After being silent for a while, Shang Ruyi pressed against his forehead, and the two of them looked at each other closely. She said softly, "You can take care of your illness, okay?"

"..."

"The people of this city depend on you...so do I."

"..."

"I'm more worried about you than anyone else."

Yu Wenye's originally weak breath suddenly became heavy.

Even his breath was a little hotter than before, brushing against Shang Ruyi's cheeks, almost turning her face red.

He slowly raised his hand.

It seemed that he wanted to wrap his arms around the slender waist of the little girl on his body, but after a moment of silence, he reached out to her shoulders and gently pushed her away.

"...?"

Shang Ruyi was taken aback, and looked at him with wide eyes.

I saw that Yu Wenye's face also seemed to be a little red, but he turned his face to one side, and his eyes flickered: "Don't let you get in trouble."

"..."

Seeing him like this again, Shang Ruyi also felt her face getting hotter.

She sat back to the bed silently, picked up a towel and soaked it in water, and continued to wipe off the sweat on his body, and Yu Wenye didn't bother anymore, just so quietly, letting her take care of him.

The night gradually passed.

The next morning, with the light of the morning light, the Xiaolin River, which had been flowing quietly all night, finally washed away the blood redness of the previous day and restored its original appearance. The breeze blew across the river, and the sparkling waves that appeared were constantly shining in the sun. of shine.

But the next moment, these calm waves were broken.

A horse galloped from a silent distance, and after a while rushed to the bottom of the city tower. The man on horseback took out a token to the tower, and the city gate immediately opened wide, and a group of people and horses came out from inside. It was Mu Xian who took the lead.

And the soldier who came back from outside the city was exactly the soldier he planted along the upper reaches of the Xiaolin River to monitor every move on the other side. When he saw Mu Xian, the man immediately got off his horse and said to Mu Xian, "Brother."

"Why did you come back?"

Mu Xian frowned, faintly feeling something: "Could it be—"

The man panted and said: "Xue Xian led tens of thousands of troops again, ready to cross the river."

"what?!"

A look of surprise appeared on Mu Xian's face, and a pimple was formed on his brows—Xue Xian wanted to cross the river again to attack Fufeng?
However, they just lost for a while yesterday. Although it is not a complete defeat, their morale will at least be low for a while, and there will be some battle damage. Under normal circumstances, they will at least have to rest for a while before continuing to fight. .

Why, you just finished playing last night, and you're coming again early this morning?
The man was obviously galloping all the way back. He was a little out of breath at this time, and said intermittently: "I left a few brothers on the shore to continue to monitor their actions, but they have too few people to destroy them. The pontoon bridge to cross the river, and the Xiaolin River is not wide, and the pontoon bridge is not difficult to build, they should be coming soon."

"..."

"Brother, we are going to—"

"The general made it very clear yesterday, this time against Xue Xian, the most important thing is to stick to it, consume their food and their willpower..."

Mu Xian repeated this sentence in a murmur, and then immediately said: "Hurry up and inform your people, tell them not to act rashly, and back away, and remember not to confront Xue Xian's men head-on."

"Yes!"

The man only breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately got on his horse again, turned the horse's head and left the city.

But Mu Xian had already turned his head and said: "Close the city gate immediately, and I will notify the general now!"

When the guarding soldiers heard this, they responded hastily. Several of them had already walked to the tall city gate and were about to close the heavy and tall city gate immediately.

But just as Mu Xian turned his head and was about to go to the official office, a group of people stopped in front of him.

Walking at the forefront was Song Yu, the chief of the marching army.

I saw this man in armor, with a long knife on his waist, coming out of the city majesticly, stopped Mu Xian at once, and said coldly: "What's going on?"

Mu Xian remembered the dispute with him last night. Although his face was not good-looking, but after all, he was only the deputy general next to Yu Wenye, and he could only bow his hands to the chief officer of the army, and then said: "Master Song, I have just reported military information. , the subordinates need to go back and report to the general immediately."

"Oh?"

Song Yu raised his eyebrows slightly: "What military situation, let me hear it."

Although Mu Xian was a little impatient, he couldn't turn around and leave at this time, he could only hold back his breath, and said in a deep voice: "The spies ahead reported that Xue Xian led tens of thousands of troops to build a pontoon bridge to cross the river, and the goal should be Fufeng again. "

Song Yu's eyes lit up when he heard it.

When the lieutenants around him heard this, they also showed expressions of eagerness, and said one after another: "It's just in time!"

"Master Song, this time, we can't let them escape again."

"Yesterday's battle was abandoned halfway, which is simply a disgrace to our army. Lord Song can't let Xue Xian think that Fufeng is a city made of clay!"

Hearing these people's chattering and ignorant words, although Mu Xian didn't want to pay attention to them at all, he couldn't hold back and said in a deep voice: "Yesterday in the meeting hall, the general has explained very clearly that yesterday's battle It's just to restore the confidence of Fufeng's army and people, but Xue Xian's 30 troops are so powerful that it's not appropriate to confront them head-on. Our best way is to stick to the city and consume their—"

Before he finished speaking, Song Yu interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

I saw Song Yu sneering at him from the corner of his eye, and said coldly: "Sure enough, the generals who are useless can only lead out soldiers who are useless."

Mu Xian's brows tightened all of a sudden: "What did you say!?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, several other lieutenants beside Song Yu rushed forward and surrounded him, all of them with ferocious faces, and said viciously, "What did you say?"

"How dare you talk to Mr. Song like that?!"

"Master Song is the chief commander of the army, what are you!"

……

Mu Xian's two hands hanging by his side have been tightly clenched into fists, and the veins on the back of his hands are bulging, and he almost can't help swinging them out, but he looks at the front with his arms crossed, and looks at himself with a sneer. Song Yu, he gritted his teeth and finally endured it.

After all, I am just a lieutenant general.

But this chief officer of the march is the order of the imperial court. If he conflicts with his people, he will violate the military order in the army. Not only will he be punished, but Yu Wenye, who is his own officer, will also be implicated.

He let out a deep breath, and then said: "Everyone, please stay with me, I will report this matter to the general immediately!"

After finishing speaking, he had to walk past several people.

But as soon as he lifted his foot, he heard Song Yu say coldly: "Open the gate of the city, and immediately dispatch [-] soldiers and horses to follow me!"

"...!?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Xian hurriedly stopped, and turned to look at him: "Master Song, this - absolutely impossible!"

Song Yu said coldly: "Impossible? I am the head of the army appointed by the imperial court. Just like your general, I have the power and responsibility to send troops. Why, let your general beat you at the gate of the city yesterday. , and finally gave up halfway, but I was not allowed to send troops to kill the enemy?"

"..."

"Are you soldiers and horses of the imperial court, or spies of Longxi?"

Unexpectedly, he could turn black and white so much. Mu Xian clenched his clenched hand again, but he still held his temper and gritted his teeth and said, "Master Song, chief executive, of course you have the right to lead the army, but The general made arrangements yesterday, and he wants us to—”

"To shut up!"

Song Yu suddenly showed a ferocious expression, and said viciously: "I don't want to listen to your nonsense now, let alone what Yu Wenye arranged for him. Since ancient times, battles have always been won, not delayed. He has no ability , then let him stay in the official office, stay in his wife's arms and be his little turtle, I will go out to fight the enemy and make meritorious service for the court!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand: "Beat the drums and fight!"

Those lieutenants under him were already ready to move. At this time, when they heard his order, they immediately got on their horses and led the soldiers and horses in the city to assemble and line up. The tower got his order and began to beat drums.

Immediately, rumbling drums sounded from the city tower, and the tall city gate was completely pushed open after a long and hoarse neigh.

Song Yu got on his horse, his eyes were red with excitement, and he raised his hand at the soldiers assembled behind him.

"Let's go!"
