Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1308 Then don’t let their death be in vain

Yu Jianling tried his best to keep his tone calm and narrative, without any personal emotions mixed in.

But his hands held the quilt tightly, as if he could wring holes out of the quilt at any time.

Bai Mingwei understood in his heart how Prince Yu was feeling at this time.

The officials who accompanied him were all personally selected by him.

If there was really a mole among them, he would at most blame himself for not knowing the person well.

However, these officials were all assassinated while performing official duties with him.

To put it mildly, life and death are unclear, but their chances of survival are extremely low. This is a tacit fact.

He was afraid that he would bear all the responsibility for what happened to these people on his own body, which was why he was in such pain.

But unfortunately, he couldn't express this pain yet. After all, he was burdened with responsibilities and burdens, and he was not allowed to be a madman as he pleased.

He could only hold back and consume the almost unbearable emotions.

Thinking of this, Bai Mingwei sat on the stool beside his bed and spoke slowly.

She did not take up the topic from Yu Jianling, but talked about other things:

"When we marched north, I promised the soldiers that I would win the battle and bring them home."

"Later, the war was won, but many people could only bury their bones in a foreign land. Only some relics and pitifully small pensions returned to their hometown."

"I have also deeply blamed myself, and I have always been ashamed of my relatives and loved ones who were waiting for them to return home."

"But at the same time, I also know that sacrifice is inevitable. Not all the bones buried in these mountains and rivers will die."

"The world is full of unpredictable variables. The separation between life and death sounds huge, but it is ordinary."

“The only thing we living people can do for the dead is to cherish the present moment, do what they left unfinished, and live the life they will never have to live again.”

After a pause, Bai Mingwei continued:
"So, Your Majesty, even if there is a mole among them, it's not your fault; what happened to them was not caused by you, so don't blame yourself too much."

Bai Mingwei was still so calm when he said these words.

Even his expression and tone did not change at all.

Not to mention, try to show empathy as you should when comforting someone.

But such a plain tone made Yu Jianling unable to control it anymore, covering his face and crying loudly.

He burst into tears: "It's all because I wasn't careful enough, so I got hit. It would have been fine if I had left, but I survived."

"How should I explain to their parents? How should I explain to their wives and children? They are still so young and they are the future and hope of the family."

"If they don't die, they will become the backbone of the family. While protecting their family, they will be relied on and trusted and live a hard but fulfilling life."

"But now, the future that was supposed to be created by them can no longer be realized, and those who are supposed to rely on them are forced to live with difficulty with their responsibilities..."

Bai Mingwei didn't speak immediately.

She knew very well how Prince Yu felt.

A person like Prince Yu had a father who inherited the title of marquis, and an aunt who became a queen mother.

Born in a wealthy family, he enjoys the wealth brought by his family's glory.

He has the naughty and willful nature of his childhood, and the high-spirited and frivolous nature of his youth.

He also has close friends who are about the same age as him.

Be cared for and loved at home; be complimented and obeyed outside.

It is an existence like the stars looming over the moon.

When he reached his age, he married a well-matched wife and continued to live a wealthy and extraordinary life.

During this trip to Jiangbei, he witnessed countless lives and deaths, but he was still a bystander, and there was nothing more than a feeling of compassion for heaven and earth.

However, after going through this difficulty, he experienced life and death personally, and also experienced the death of those around him.

The impact of the whole thing on him was naturally different.

Bai Mingwei spoke softly: "Your Majesty, then don't let their death be in vain."

Bai Mingwei didn't say anything more.

Because no matter how much he said at this time, he could not comfort Yu Jianling. This grief can only be digested and endured by himself.

And any mention of responsibilities and obligations at this time will only add to the burden on his heart.

So thousands of words were all condensed into one sentence that he most wanted to hear and could best listen to.

When Yu Jianling heard this, he wiped his face with his hand full of veins.

The tears were gone, leaving only a pair of scarlet eyes.

He turned his head to look at Bai Mingwei and said word by word: "They will never die in vain!"

Hearing this, Bai Ming felt relieved a little: "Your Majesty, the most important thing right now is to recover from your injuries. There are many things that only the Crown Prince can do, but the premise of all this is that you, Crown Prince, are in good health."

Yu Jianling nodded solemnly, no longer as passive as before: "I know, please don't worry, General."

Bai Ming said slightly: "I will not give up looking for news about the other adults. Regardless of life or death, I will always bring them back to Beijing."

"As for the things that the prince was worried about just now, I will also formulate corresponding strategies to prevent and deal with possible bad situations."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door: "General, the medicine prepared for the prince is ready."

Bai Mingwei stood up: "Doctor, come in."

After speaking, she looked at Yu Jianling.

Yu Jianling nodded to her, and she left the room.

The doctor went in carrying a lot of things, accompanied by a secret guard pretending to be an apprentice.

Seeing this, Bai Mingwei went to deal with other matters.

"What's the current situation?"

Finding the person in charge of the secret guard, Bai Mingwei asked this question.

The person in charge immediately and respectfully reported back: "The people who made a fuss at the gate of the Jin Mansion have all been interrogated by subordinates, and no important information has been revealed. Those who bribed them to cause trouble all have business dealings with members of the Jin family. some small businessmen.”

"The whole family of members of the Jin family were taken to Licheng for trial by Mr. Bai. Some of the close servants were also detained. The rest of the handymen and rough envoys were temporarily placed with the head of the village, and the subordinates would keep close contact with them. Pay attention to their movements.”

"As for the refugees rescued from Jin Mansion, there are fifty-eight in total except Prince Yu. As the master expected, they were all caught because they were left alone and lost their way. Now they have been placed in the backyard of the medicine hall. Experienced doctors are responsible for the treatment, but..."

Bai Mingwei looked at him: "Just what?"

The person in charge lowered his head: "It's just that their situation is not optimistic. The doctor said that after all-out treatment, less than half of them will survive."

After Bai Mingwei listened, he nodded: "Just do your best, so that those who sacrificed can be buried alive."

The person in charge wanted to get a glimpse of happiness and anger from Bai Mingwei's expression, but it was like looking at an ancient well. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see any ups and downs.

Bai Mingwei's eyes suddenly turned sharp: "Huh?"

The person in charge suddenly knelt down and said, "Master, please forgive me. I have overstepped my bounds."

Bai Mingwei didn't care about it, and just whispered: "The prince is still alive, I'm afraid the other party won't give up and be ready to face the enemy."

"In addition, mobilize all available personnel. I need them to help me dig out the person behind Mr. Jin."

The person in charge responded respectfully: "Yes, Master!"

Just as the person in charge was about to leave, Bai Mingwei suddenly asked: "What's your name?"

The person in charge raised his eyes in disbelief, then lowered his head: "The subordinate has no name, the subordinate is five hundred and seventy-nine."

When Bai Mingwei heard the words, he just nodded slightly and then left.

Her voice came: "Since they are all code names, you can use the name announced to the public from now on. Nanzhu's flowers are very beautiful."

Because the base is a medicine hall, the identity of the person in charge is the son of the owner of the medicine hall.

Nanzhu is the name of the medicine, so his name is announced to the outside world as Nanzhu.

It makes sense.

But their secret guards have no names, only cold code names.

The master suddenly gave him a name, and the person in charge was stunned for a moment.

After he came to his senses, he didn't say much, but bowed deeper: "I will definitely do what my master ordered me to do."
