Chapter 382 Keep your promise
Mo Ziyao sighed, stretched out her arms and hugged Ruan Lingzheng's body, regardless of the strange eyes cast by others, and said, "I know you're doing it for my good, but I just want to be with you, and I don't want to be separated from you for a second."
Ruan Lingzheng smiled slowly and opened his lips and said, "When I defeat Yutan, I will ask Fumo Emperor for marriage and marry you as the queen. Now, don't make trouble, go back to the city obediently, and don't distract me.
Mo Ziyao nodded, "Okay, I'm waiting for the emperor's victory in the city." After saying that, he let go of his hand and turned away, but in the middle of the walk, tears couldn't stop falling. I'm waiting for you, but I'm afraid I can't wait for your beg of marriage...
I really hope this war will never end, even if it has been in the middle of the city.
Although Ruan Lingheng promised her to go to the battlefield, he also asked Fumo Zheyu to send someone to send her back to southern Xinjiang after the battle. Once you go back, the ten-year covenant will begin. If you want to see Ruan Lingzheng again, it can only be ten years later. But ten years is enough for a lot of things to happen.
No one can say for sure what will happen in the future. Maybe six years later, he will die at the age of 25, maybe a large-scale war will start ahead of schedule, and Ruan Nanguo will go to extinction, maybe...
Maybe, a farewell is a farewell.
She didn't dare to think about it. That's why she wants to say that she just wants to be with him. As long as we are still together. But she also knew that if she insisted on staying on the battlefield and following him, it would only become his drag and distract him. Therefore, she decided to listen to him and stay in Yangtian City to wait for him.
For good, Yangtian City is not far from the battlefield, and she can still get the latest battle situation quickly. At noon, the news came back.
Mo Ziyao listened. It turned out that an 8,000-person cavalry arrived first and entered the ambush circle prepared in advance by Ruan Nan and Yuni. Although they have backup, they are all infantry. Although they have started at full speed, they have been thrown away. I had no choice but to take the lead. The cavalry was fierce, but there was no help. Unsurprisingly, eight thousand cavalry came back. Ruan Nan was an easy victory.
Ruan Nan's morale was boosted to a certain extent, and then they immediately cleaned up the battlefield, and then hid, which was just like a net after the arrival of the Han army.
What is unexpected is that the army in the country will not come until dark. Everyone noticed something was wrong and immediately sent someone to investigate. After that, the spy sent back the news that the Yutan army did not come in the direction of Yangtian City, but pretended to chase a few miles. The whole army suddenly took the tail and retreated in the direction of Yutan.
Cunning Yutan, they knew that Ruan Nan was no longer his opponent after he had the support of Wei Ni. In fact, they didn't mean to fight with Ruan Nan, but just used 8,000 cavalry as a cover to delay the time to sacrifice them to cover the retreat of the army.
Mo Ziyao couldn't help guessing: I just don't know what decision Ruan Lingzheng would make when he learned that Yutan's army wanted to withdraw. Is it to pursue or go straight to the territory after adjusting the state?
Immediately, another news came, and the emperor decided to pursue and annihilate them before they returned to Yutan. Not only that, he also sent a message to King Pingren and asked him to take the army to Yutan immediately. Most of Yutan's strength has been dispatched, and now is the perfect time to attack.
After everything was arranged, the army set out with grain and fodder. Ruan Lingzheng and Fang Ni led the pedestrians to pursue the army in Yutan, and selected 15,000 elite cavalry from the two countries, ready to take a shortcut to intercept the border between the two countries.
Mo Ziyao couldn't help nodding. Ruan Lingzheng's decision was correct. Only in this way can the battle end as soon as possible. Because next, there will be a more severe test waiting for you, and you will soon face a big war.
As Ruan Lingzheng said, a battle cannot end in a short time. Seven days later, Ruan Nan and Fang Ni's army chased to the border between the two countries and fought with the army of Yutan. Although they have arrived at their doorstep, the soldiers and horses are exhausted and in no state due to the lack of food and fodder along the way. And King Pingren was also attacking their hometown, and Emperor Yutan could not send reinforcements to help them at all.
On the contrary, Ruan Nanguo's state is in excellent condition. Along the way, he is chasing them like cats and mice, saying that they are chasing, rather than driving them away, which means driving them to the designated place before starting.
Ruan Nanguo and the mud-splied people totaled 80,000, while Yutan only had 50,000. This battle lasted for five days, and Ruan Nansheng was not surprised. Although it failed to annihilate it, it also lost more than 30,000 people. The remaining 20,000 fled back in a hurry, but they were also scared and had no power to fight.
Ruan Lingzheng did not continue to pursue, because if he pursues again, he will cross the line. They rested here, and when the people of King Pingren also arrived, they began to march towards the territory of Yutan.
At this time, Mo Ziyao was ready to leave Yangtian City. It's the end of August, and she has been pregnant for more than five months. These days, she has been wrapping her abdomen with white silk, which is not so obvious. You should know that now is the dog days, and you will naturally suffer a lot. She is also very clear that after five months, she can't wrap her abdomen, which will affect the growth of the fetus. Therefore, I had to go back to the mud in advance.
Speaking of returning to the mud, there was an episode. Mo Ziyao and others were killed by Liu Yanfei when they passed by his station. All 20 escorts were shot. And she took off her veil while fleeing in a hurry and was recognized by Liu Yanfei at a glance.
And his voice "You really haven't died yet" also made Mo Ziyao suddenly understand that it was his person who ambushed himself in the sunrise palace. The assassin of the imperial capital is also very likely to be him.
When he saw Mo Ziyao's raised lower abdomen, his eyes became colder and raised his hand to shoot her. Fortunately, Fumo Zheyu arrived in time to save her, otherwise she would definitely die.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was October 11th, the Double Ninth Festival.
Mo Ziyao originally thought that after returning to the mud, Ruan Lingheng would send someone to take her away. Unexpectedly, before he came back, he had sent a message to Fumo Zheyu, saying that his body was not easy to run around and asked him to stay in the mud for the time being. After hearing the news, she was really overjoyed.
The news that Yutan was captured by Ruan Nanguo has spread among the countries, and Mo Ziyao, who was in the mud, also learned the news. She stood in front of the window with her already raised lower abdomen in one hand, looking at the direction of Ruan Nanguo from afar, remembering that Ruan Lingzheng had promised herself that he would defeat Yutan, and he really did it.
Thinking about it, a voice suddenly sounded behind him: "You are really like lonely and lonely cousins. He is very attentive to you. No wonder you love him so much."
Mo Ziyao turned around and saw Fu Mo Zheyu standing behind him at some point, and the bodyguard beside him was still Jianzhi, who lost half of his right arm.
Looking straight at the man in front of him, his lips gently opened: "I occasionally know something about the royal brother and his cousin from the king of Xin (Ruan Lingheng). Speaking of which, you must have been more than Jin Jian. Since the king of Xin has told you her whereabouts, why didn't the royal brother go to find her?"
In fact, Mo Ziyao is also very curious about him and his cousin. After ten years of knowing each other, she suddenly abandoned him and never heard from him. And he has been looking for him for her and has been ascending the throne for five years. Just because Ruan Lingheng had her news in his hand, he chose the latter between King Kang and him.
Vomodi's face changed slightly, but there was no displeasure. He just said lightly, "I respect her choice. As long as she feels happy, she will be fine." After saying that, he turned around and stood with his back to Mo Ziyao, making his expression unclear.
Mo Ziyao found that even Jane's face was a little strange when asked about this, but he didn't say anything. Looking at the tall back of the man in front of her, she seemed to understand his mood at this moment. But he also knows that no matter how good his temper is, I'm afraid he will turn against him if he touches the bottom line.
changed the topic and said, "I'm afraid that the royal brother came to me this time not only to lament our feelings, right?"
Fumo Zheyu smiled and turned to look at Mo Ziyao and said, "Ruan Lingzheng actually claimed to Quanwu that he fell in love with my muddy Princess Qianyan and wanted to marry her. And sent a messenger to propose marriage to you. Do you think it should be a brother or not?
Mo Ziyao was happy when she heard the words, and then her eyes darkened. She said, "It's not that I don't know. Now I can't see him again."
Fumo Zheyu smiled inexplicably, but asked, "Do you want it or not?"
Mo Ziyao was silent for a moment and opened her lips and said, "Marrying him as my wife is my lifelong wish. However, since King Xin has helped us, I should also keep my promise."
"Is that right? What if the king of Xin also responds?
Mo Ziyao almost thought she had heard it wrong and couldn't help saying, "What? Xinwang agreed, not to say..."
Fumo Zheyu looked at Mo Ziyao's surprised expression and said in a good mood, "You have to thank Gu. If it hadn't been for Gu Xiushu to beg him, you could only stay here honestly."
Mo Ziyao hurriedly said, "Thank you for your adult beauty. Yan and the emperor are here to thank you."
Fumo Zheyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Well, don't be happy too early. Xinwang agreed, but didn't I say that I haven't thought about it yet?"
“......”
Mo Ziyao looked at him, but was silent. She knew that this "brother" had helped her a lot. Although she wanted to return to Ruan Lingzheng, now she is under the shelter of others and has no right to make the decision. And she also believes that there must be a reason why Fumo Zheyu would say so.
