Book with Emperor

Chapter 274
The note was quickly sent to the Yuzhou military camp. When Cheng Jingyu heard that it was sent by Qin Guanyue, he didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately presented it to their young masters. However, after their young masters read it, not only were they not happy at all, but Also fell into a rage.

Although he didn't slap the table or kick the stool, nor did he curse or scold, but he had a frightening aura, his clenched hands trembled slightly, his face sank like water, his eyes seemed to be on fire, and he looked like their late prince. .

Cheng Jingyu was terrified, but he still dared to glance at the note. There was only one word on the note, Lin.

Lin...

He was so lucky that he blurted out, "Shoot Prince Yu Lin!"

When the words fell to the ground, he regretted it, and hurriedly went to look at Yue Wentian, but saw that although their young master was still angry, he had recovered his composure, at least it seemed that way.

"Sheyu was afraid of Daxi, so he was forced to send his successor Bai Chan to Daxi as a hostage. Yongzhou also took this opportunity to form an alliance with Sheyu. Now that the alliance is shaken, if he can hold Baichan in his hands, Sheyu will not dare to act rashly. .”

Cheng Jingyu showed hesitation, "It's just that Bai Chan is in Beijing..."

He said so, and he was even more confused about Mingyue's identity in his heart. Who can hold Prince Lin who is in the middle of the capital in his hands?
But Yue Wentian knew that Qin Guanyue came so quickly and acted extremely cautiously, he was afraid that he had hidden Bai Chan in secret long ago, and would only use it to restrain Sheyu one day.

Now not only Sheyu is being held back, but he is also being held back, just to get Yi Yuanzhou back.

He was extremely depressed, yet helplessly panicked. There was a sea of ​​blood and deep hatred between him and Qin Guanyue, as if separated by an unreachable mountain, and he and Qin Guanyue were at the two ends of the mountain, testing each other, Calculated with each other, but also reluctant to give up each other.

For the first time, he felt so deeply the ruthless power of fate. Even though he knew that both parties were involuntary, he still couldn't let go of everything.

Seeing that he was silent, Cheng Jingyu couldn't help asking, "Young master, Xiao Zhong is still waiting outside."

So, should this person change or not?

After a long silence in the tent, Yue Wentian slowly uttered a sentence, "No change."

Zhong Lue came back and forth without daring to delay at all, and rushed back to Yicheng without taking a sip of water, and brought Yue Wentian's meaning to Qin Guanyue.

Qin Guanyue was not angry after hearing this, and even laughed helplessly.

"What is the girl laughing at?" The maid on the side asked suspiciously.

Qin Guanyue stood in front of the window with her hand stove in her arms and looked at the full moon above her head. She tapped on the wall of the furnace with her fingertips and said slowly, "It's nothing, but I'm a little bit emotional that such a quiet day may be coming to an end."

The maid was slightly stunned, then her gaze fell on Qin Guanyue's wind-blown hair, and she subconsciously said, "It's cold outside, the girl is not in good health, it's better to blow less wind."

Qin Guanyue paused with her fingertips, "Yes."

Three days later, the Sheyu Reinforcement Army and the Lieyan Army, which were separated by the imperial court's surprise attack, did not join forces, but split into two groups, and captured Lingcheng, one of the three major granaries in Langya County, in a pincer attack.

In addition to Yicheng, which was occupied by the Yuzhou Army, two food and grass delivery routes in Langya County have been cut off, and the supply of food and grass to the White Wing Army is limited.So far, Langya City has truly fallen into a crisis.

The atmosphere in Yicheng was even more strange. There was almost no one on the street, but the guards at the gate of the city became stricter.

In the evening, when Qu Mingfei came to give Qin Guanyue an injection, he mentioned that there was no one in the pharmacy.

"The battle is almost over," he said.

It is indeed almost the same, cutting off the supply of food and grass, with the lowest casualties, is already the best ending.

Qin Guanyue let out a sigh of relief, watched Qu Mingfei close a sandalwood brocade box, and asked, "How many white dragon feathers are there?"

"Bai Longyu only needs half a penny each time you use the medicine, and the rest is enough for you to drink until you stop taking the medicine." Qu Mingfei joked, "Even if you finish drinking it, it's fine. When the son of Yue is enthroned, send someone to Daxia to drink it again." Just make a point."

Qin Guanyue didn't answer, walked to the table and opened the sandalwood box, took out a rouge-colored lump the size of a pebble from it, and wrapped it in a handkerchief.

Qu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, but didn't ask any further questions. Anyway, this Bai Longyu was also for her use, and he still kept some of it for himself.

He carried the medicine box and opened the door to leave. The wind blew in from the outside. The maid turned around and put a fox fur cloak on her, and carefully tightened the gap around her neck.

Qin Guanyue put Bai Longyu into her arms, rubbing the stove with both hands, "Why don't you close the door, instead put on a cloak for me?"

The maid was packing the quilt and clothes with her head down, and she didn't stop moving her hands when she heard that, she said with a smile, "Anyway, the girl guessed it, so the servant will stop pretending."

Qin Guanyue tilted her head slightly, and a dagger rested on her neck, with a frightening cold light.

The maid's eyes were dark, "Your Majesty, please."

A moment later, a fast horse galloped out of Yicheng and headed straight for the Yuzhou army camp.

"boom!"

Inside the main tent, Yue Wentian slammed his palm on the table, looked coldly at the person kneeling in front of him, "Say it again."

Zhong Lue knelt on the ground, holding a piece of folded letter paper in his hand, sweating profusely on his low forehead, "Ms. Mingyue was kidnapped, she deserves death for her lowly position!"

Cheng Jingyu grabbed the letter, glanced at it before changing his expression, turned his head to look at Yue Wentian with difficulty, "The court threatens Miss Mingyue's life to make the young master... retreat and surrender!"

There was a dead silence in the tent, sweat dripped from Zhong Lue's forehead, but he didn't even dare to breathe hard.

"Ning Zhao—"

Yue Wentian's clenched fists made the sound of knuckles colliding, his face sank like a deep pool, his killing intent had not dissipated just after leaving the battlefield, he was like a fierce ghost Shura at this moment.

Cheng Jingyu's face was also very ugly, he turned around and scolded Cheng Jingyu, "Zhong Lue, what's going on!"

Zhong Lue knelt on the ground, his voice trembling slightly but still sonorous and forceful, "At that time, Doctor Qu screamed and called for help as soon as he left the house. He thought that Doctor Qu was in danger, so he immediately went to rescue him. It's gone!"

"According to what you said, it took only a cup of tea before and after, and the other party was able to take people away from the prefect's mansion. There must be something wrong with the people around Miss Mingyue." The more Cheng Jingyu thought about it, the more ugly his face became, and he gritted his teeth, " That new maid..."

He looked up at Yue Wentian above, feeling extremely entangled in his heart, he didn't think that the young master would really abandon the entire Yongzhou because of one person, but he couldn't bear to just let the young master's sweetheart lose his life.

However, Yue Wentian didn't get entangled in the choice between the two. Instead, he said coldly, "The person who knows that I am hiding in the Taishou's mansion, it seems that there is more than one guard in the army."

Cheng Jingyu was startled, and broke out in a cold sweat.

The tent fell into dead silence again. After a long time, Cheng Jingyu spoke with difficulty, "Tomorrow morning...will you still attack the city?"

Yue Wentian slowly closed his eyes, remained silent for a while, and slowly spit out the order.

Night fell quickly, and a huge black curtain enveloped the entire Langya City.

At this time, the Taiqing Hall, where civil and military officials go to court every day, is still brightly lit. Ning Zhao, who is dressed in a yellow robe, sits on a dragon chair and looks down at Qin Guanyue who is standing below, as if she had just stepped into Fuyun Mountain. It was like that in this court.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally it was Ning Zhao who broke the silence, "I thought you had died in the cliff below Qishan."

Qi Shan was the mountain she jumped off the cliff when she was hunted down by the Habayashi guards.

"The desire to survive is stronger." Qin Guanyue looked up at him, "Your Majesty will understand when he tastes the lotus in his palm."

Ning Zhao ignored her provocation, but stared at her quietly for a while, and said, "You are not like him at all, why did I see his shadow in you before..."

Qin Guanyue didn't answer, and Ning Zhao didn't continue the topic, but talked about another thing, "When I took you away, I left a letter for Yue Wentian."

"I asked him to choose between retreating and surrendering or your life. If he hasn't replied to me by the end of the day, I will kill you." He looked at Qin Guanyue with some interest in his tone. But very indifferent, "I really want to know if he is really nobler than me."

The spacious and solemn hall was empty and quiet, with flickering candles, the figures of the two were pulled and reflected on the wall, and the hourglass in the corner floated slightly. It was just after Xu hour.

An hour later, there was a voice from outside the hall to announce the watch, indicating that the hour had come.

The person on the dragon chair said quietly, "The time has come, how do you want to die?"
