Chapter Thirty-Seven
The sky was completely bright, very blue, and cloudless. There was a slight coolness in the morning, which meant that it would be a good day. The breeze blew by, and Chen Xuan smelled a disgusting smell. She frowned slightly and couldn't help but stop.
steps.
"My lord, can this slave take a bath?" Chen Xuan looked at the impatient soldier and straightened her hair around her ears. There was endless prayer and endless charm in her eyes, "This slave has not bathed for several days.
After taking a shower, I feel really uncomfortable."
Seeing this, the soldier looked at Chen Xuan with a silly smile on his face. Although Chen Xuan's hair was messy and her clothes were stained, her dirty face could not hide her beautiful eyes. Just the movement of her eyes could tell.
It is breathtaking and crazy about it.
"Okay, okay!" The soldier smiled obscenely, swallowed his saliva, and led Chen Xuan in another direction.
The flag of the military camp gradually appeared in front of her eyes, as if she was about to leave the camp. Chen Xuan looked at the totem on the military flag and felt that it looked familiar. There seemed to be a mythical beast embroidered on the military flag, with its teeth bared, which was quite scary.
Where had she seen it? After thinking hard, she suddenly understood. Her father had a close friend named Ye Zhao, who was also a general and guarded the southern border of Vietnam. He was as famous as her father and was named General Zhennan.
. She remembered that once the Zhennan army returned to the court, she had seen the same military flag.
This is actually the military camp of General Ye Zhao!
There was a group of soldiers gathered together not far away, and she didn't know what they were talking about. When she passed by them, she listened carefully and heard the words "The general returned yesterday."
He dropped his feet, screamed, lost his center of gravity, and fell straight forward.
The pain she imagined did not come. Before Chen Xuan could recover, she was hugged into someone's arms. The soldier who caught her was the soldier who had just looked at her. She fell into his arms and looked up.
Seeing him looking nervously at the soldier leading her, he couldn't help but soften his body, then reached out and gently pushed him away.
"Master... Thank you, Master..." She raised her eyes and looked into his eyes, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, she looked like a delicate beauty, which made people feel loved. After she stood firm, the soldier let go.
He stared blankly at the hand that once held Chen Xuan, with indescribable emotions in his heart.
While everyone was in a daze, Chen Xuan carefully observed her surroundings, but when she looked back, she ran into a pair of clear and bright eyes! Chen Xuan was stunned for a moment, and took a closer look at the owner of those eyes. He was a handsome boy.
, at about fifteen years old, he is still a child, and he doesn’t know the sinister nature of people’s hearts.
He San was so startled by that smile that he forgot to breathe. For a moment, he felt like he was in a fairyland.
Chen Xuan smiled at him and was about to turn around when her hand was caught off guard by the soldier who caught her just now. The soldier touched her hand while swallowing the pork, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a thick layer.
Thick fog said, "Auntie Hua, since I saved you, how can you thank me?"
As he said that, the soldier stretched out his hand toward Chen Xuan and put it into her lapel. Seeing this, Chen Xuan's eyes filled with mist, and she looked at the soldier who had escorted her earlier, her tone full of panic and pleading.
"My lord... My lord, save me..."
The corners of Chen Xuan's eyes were slightly red, and her normal appearance would make people feel affectionate, but now that the beauty was crying, it was even more pitiful. When the other soldiers saw this, they all became angry, and someone stepped forward and pulled Chen Xuan away.
He came back and punched the man in the face.
After being rescued, Chen Xuan thanked the other party softly, with tears in her eyes, which was especially beautiful. As if she was afraid that she would be molested again, the soldier who rescued her handed her over to He San, and comforted her and told her not to be afraid,
Then they started fighting with the man who molested her. Seeing her pitiful appearance before, He San wanted to comfort Chen Xuan, but when he raised his head, he saw that the pitiful look in her eyes had long since disappeared, and the tears in her eyes had also disappeared.
I didn't know where I was going, and I was a little confused for a while.
"You must be very curious." Chen Xuan suddenly spoke, her voice was like the sound of a clear spring, refreshing, "You are curious about why a woman like me would do this."
"Why?" He San scratched his head and asked following her words.
"Well..." Chen Xuan pondered for a moment, and then asked a very abrupt question, abruptly changing the topic, "What is your general's name?"
"Our general!" When he mentioned Ye Zhao, He San's eyes immediately shone with light, "Our general's name is Ye Zhao, he is a hero!"
"In the future, I will become as powerful as our general!"
He was in high spirits when he said this. Chen Xuan looked at him, a trace of unknown emotion flashed in her eyes, and for a moment, no trace of it could be found.
Hearing the sound of fighting, many people came to persuade them to make peace, but they were implicated. The people who were beaten for no reason also got angry and started fighting with them. For a while, the barracks was full of chaos. Later, I don’t know what happened.
Who kicked over the firewood in the fire pit, and the charcoal fire splashed all over the floor. The southwest is dry, and although the dew is heavy in the morning, as soon as the sun comes out, there is no trace of water. There is only a little charcoal fire, but it ignites in a moment.
camp. The lookout soldiers saw the fireworks from a distance and hurriedly blew their horns. The incident became more and more noisy, and eventually it reached Ye Zhao's ears.
After a long time, this farce came to an end. Ye Zhao looked at the people kneeling on the ground with a dark face, and carefully asked about the reason. After hearing what happened, his face sank, and he slapped him with a palm.
The pole curtain next to him suddenly made a few muffled sounds, and some cracks gradually appeared. Within a moment, the pole curtain shattered and fell to the ground, stirring up countless dust.
He was able to break it with one palm, which showed that his internal strength was amazing! Obviously, he must have been extremely angry.
"You actually ruined our military morale for a woman!" Ye Zhao frowned with disdain, "I want to see what kind of beautiful woman she is!"
With that said, Ye Zhao walked up to Chen Xuan, grabbed the spear from the soldier on the side, put it on Chen Xuan's neck, and raised her head. He had murderous intent, and he originally wanted a woman to enter the military camp.
He strongly opposed it, not to mention that now such a serious incident was caused by a woman. He restrained the strength in his hands to prevent himself from killing this woman with any more force.
With the cold spear pressed against her throat, Chen Xuan raised her head carefully, suppressing her breathing. She looked at the surprise flashing through Ye Zhao's eyes, and finally showed a bit of sadness on her face. Her red lips
I opened my mouth slightly, and after a long while, I couldn't say a single word.
Ye Zhao seemed to be stunned for an instant. He retracted his hand tremblingly, threw the spear back to the soldier, and ordered others to deal with the troublemaker according to military law. After looking at Chen Xuan for a long time, someone took her to the
In his own tent, Ye Zhaocai mounted his horse and left in the dust.
Amidst the sounds of begging for mercy, He San watched Chen Xuan being taken away, as if he had not yet reacted to Ye Zhao's words. Ye Zhao was known for his strict military management. What happened now must be dealt with according to military regulations. It is also common sense, but... if it were normal, Chen Xuan would be the first to die, but now that Chen Xuan survived, she actually wanted someone to send her to her camp, which is really strange. .
However, he is just a little soldier guarding the camp. He still knows what things should not be taken care of.
Chen Xuan arrived at Ye Zhao's camp as she wished, and watched Ye Zhao wave to others to go down. There was no one around, and Ye Zhao looked at Chen Xuan, speechless for a long time. Chen Xuan also looked at him for a long time, and there was something in her eyes. When she came out of the embankment, she suddenly knelt down towards Ye Zhao, lowering her head and refusing to speak. Seeing this, Ye Zhao quickly helped her up.
Chen Xuan walked all the way to the southwest wearing handcuffs. Even though she had taken off the handcuffs for half a month, she still refused to take medicine. The injury healed slowly and traces could still be seen. When Ye Zhao helped her up, he noticed that she Seeing her looking so lonely, he finally spoke with a hoarse voice, "Girl, you are suffering!"
"Uncle Ye..." Chen Xuan raised her eyes and looked at Ye Zhao, big tears rolled down from her eyes, and her eyebrows were full of sadness, "My father, my father was wronged, he didn't, he didn't... …”
"I know." Ye Zhao stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on Chen Xuan's face, "Your father has great power and has long aroused His Majesty's suspicion. He is also an upright man. It is inevitable that he will make too many enemies in the court. Today's situation has been anticipated by us. , but I didn’t expect that they would use such dirty methods to slander your father.”
"Girl, what happened in the battle of Luoxiaguan?"
As everyone knows, the reason why the Yue Kingdom ended in failure in the battle of Luoxia Pass was because General Chen Mu of Zhenbei collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and revealed the military deployment map of the military camp to the Qi army. Luoxia Pass was lost, and Youzhou fell. , Chen Mu became a sinner for the ages and was beheaded in public, and his head was hung on the city wall as a warning to everyone. Chen Xuan's brother Chen Yun was demoted as a slave, and Chen Xuan was demoted as a prostitute.
What the world cares about is always what they see. No one cares about what happened at Luoxia Pass. The sound of artillery fire and the cry of killing rang in her ears again. She seemed to see the beacon fire all over the sky again, and even the sky was dyed. Gray.
——Where are the reinforcements? Why haven’t the reinforcements arrived yet?!
Who is crying out in despair, using their lives to make the final resistance?
——Doctor, help me, I don’t want to die yet...
Who is it, standing on the edge of death, desperately begging to save him?
For a moment, Chen Xuan felt like she was spinning for a while, not knowing where she was. Even her heartbeat stopped and all the color on her face faded. Seeing Chen Xuan's reaction, Ye Zhao couldn't bear to ask anymore, and it took him a while to comfort her. She calmed down. He was a soldier and had been fighting in the army for decades. What kind of scene had he not seen? Chen Xuan reacted like this just after hearing the words "Luoxiaguan". It is not difficult to imagine the despair she experienced.
"Luoxia Pass... There is no Luoxia Pass anymore..." What is there is just endless purgatory.
Chen Xuan didn't say the rest, but Ye Zhao understood. They all firmly believed that Chen Mu definitely did not betray, not to mention that Chen Xuan was a personal experiencer of the battle of Luoxia Pass. Since Chen Mu did not betray, and there was no betrayal in the Zhenbei army. If there is indeed a traitor, then the traitor can only be someone else. But who that person is, Chen Xuan doesn't have a clue yet.
The family members of guilty officials were usually demoted as slaves and taken into custody directly in the inner court for the emperor to control. As an important witness, Chen Xuan should not have appeared in the southwest city of Shu, far away from Kyoto, let alone in his own army. Let
People from the southwest came to Chen Xuan and they were determined to take her life. They openly killed her and silenced her. If I hadn't seen Chen Xuan first and not let her fall into the hands of those soldiers, I was afraid that when I found her, she would already be a corpse.
Already.
"Traitors and traitors, they are simply ambitious!" Thinking of this, Ye Zhao slammed the table, "You are in such a difficult situation, girl, how will you treat yourself in the future?"
"Uncle Ye, please help me!" Chen Xuan suddenly knelt on the ground, her tone full of determination, "My father gave his whole life to the Yue Kingdom, but he ended up like this. The Zhenbei Army was wronged out of thin air. I must fight for them.
rehabilitate!"
"You." Ye Zhao looked at her resolute face and was a little shocked, "This case was decided by His Majesty himself. It is not easy to overturn the case. Have you thought about it?"
"I've thought about it."
"Even if you are shattered into pieces in the future, you won't regret it?"
"No regrets!"
"If you make any mistake, your father's bloodline may not be preserved!" Ye Zhao was a little excited, "Even so, you must do it?"
"If I can't bring peace to the Zhenbei Army and comfort their souls in heaven, what's the point of living till now?" Chen Xuan's eyes were full of determination, and she couldn't tolerate the slightest refusal, "I must do this, Uncle Ye.
, please help me!”
With that said, Chen Xuan leaned down towards Ye Zhao and kowtowed heavily. Her smooth and white forehead instantly became bloody and bloody, making people unable to bear to look at it.
At dawn the next day, in full view of everyone, a body was carried out of Ye Zhao's tent. Many people came to watch. Not long after the body was carried out, Ye Zhao walked out wounded.
The bloody sword was thrown in front of everyone. Ye Zhao covered his wound and allowed the military doctor to bandage his wound.
"This man is a traitor to the country. He wanted to assassinate this general, but now he has been shot to death!" Ye Zhao frowned, his eyes full of anger, "Send my military order to cremate his body on the spot, crush his bones and spread ashes!"
"
He San watched the corpse passing in front of him. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew up and blew up a corner of the white cloth covering the corpse. In just a moment, He San saw the hair of the corpse.
He held out his hairpin, his body couldn't help but soften, and he took a step back.
Because He San was an honest man and had a good relationship with everyone in the military camp, he deliberately changed his guarding position with others and guarded the camp tent near Ye Zhao. He didn't sleep a wink all night. Until this morning, he still hadn't seen Chen.
When Xuan came out, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. He knew that the general had killed a traitor, but he didn't know who it was. But just now he accidentally saw the hairpin on the corpse, and he knew that the corpse was Chen Xuan. He also
Then I understood why Chen Xuan never came out since she entered Ye Zhao's camp.
...Knowing people but not knowing their hearts, he never expected that such a beautiful woman was actually a traitor, and she even wanted to assassinate General Ye. He had only seen her once, and she was a traitor, but for some reason, she was dead now, He
San felt a little sad in his heart.
There is nothing to be sad about! He San shook his head, she is just a traitor!
The news that Ye Zhao killed the traitor spread throughout the military camp, and the identity of the traitor was also known to everyone. Everyone who had seen the traitor regretted that she was so beautiful but she was a traitor, but no one cared. Someone boarded the
