Chapter 905: Chapter 903: Su Hao Falls into Enemy Lines
She could only hope that she could bring Mo Qi a glimmer of hope.
It seemed that her mother’s medical skills had mentioned a medicine that could control a person’s memory. She began to peruse her mother’s letters as soon as she entered Medicine King Valley and also took the opportunity to write a letter to Princess Rong Sheng, asking her for some advice and references.
At this moment, she had no idea what kind of dire straits Princess Rong Sheng was in.
When Ah Hong received the letter, he reported to Chu Yifeng with some difficulty, “Master, this letter, should it be given to Princess Rong Sheng?”
More and more stunning female slaves surrounded Chu Yifeng, attending to him.
His sensually alluring face wore a cold smile, “Give it to her! Let her see how wonderful the outside world is, how free people are, and let her truly experience the feeling of always being in the dark!”
“Yes.”
Ah Hong sighed and turned to go to the underground chamber.
He used Chu Yifeng’s blood to open the door, then placed the letter down. Seeing the food on the table that hadn’t been touched for several days, he sighed deeply, “Alas.”
——
On the border of the Great Cheng Dynasty.
Su Yingxue hadn’t spoken a word to Chu Yihan the entire journey. It wasn’t that she hadn’t thought about softening her stance, but Chu Yihan’s ill-temper has shown when she had stealthily climbed into the carriage, and he had thrown her out.
She was also losing her patience, why was Chu Yihan so wildly jealous!
He wouldn’t even listen to her explanation!
All she did was bid farewell to Qin Muyan.
He had been cold to her for such a long time, determined to be moody and even threw her aside!
If Chu Yihan wouldn’t come for her, she was happy to ride alone and take her time; she could even enjoy the local customs along the border!
Not until her grandfather’s letter arrived, reporting that Su Hao had been trapped behind enemy lines for two days, did Su Yingxue become anxious and quickly headed towards Jingcheng.
“Grandpa! Grandpa!”
Wearing cold jade, Su Yingxue dashed into the military camp, headed straight for the commander’s tent.
Upon hearing her voice, Su Qingzhi hurriedly stood up to welcome her, “Yingxue!”
“Grandfather!” Su Yingxue flung herself into his arms, her face filled with urgency, “Grandfather, where’s brother? How is he? Is there any news? When do you plan to dispatch troops? I want to go save brother too!”
“Calm down, don’t be impetuous and anxious.”
Su Qingzhi patted her back, commanding Su Wei to pour her some tea.
Su Yingxue was in no mood for tea. She sat beside Su Qingzhi at the commander’s position, “Grandfather! You are brave and good at war. Brother is in danger on his military campaign, why haven’t you rescued him? Isn’t he trapped?”
She had received the message yesterday and had hurried there today. By her calculations, Su Hao had been surrounded for three days, in the midst of the enemy camp, without water or food – it was very dangerous!
“Miss, don’t be hasty. Don’t blame the Old General just yet. The Eldest Young Master is the Old General’s grandson; how could the General not be anxious? It’s just that, given the situation, the General cannot dispatch more troops now!” Su Wei hurriedly reassured Su Yingxue.
“Why can’t more troops be dispatched?”
Su Yingxue’s face was filled with confusion. The Great Cheng Dynasty had a million strong army, a prosperous economy, and ample provisions; it stood as the most powerful among the four kingdoms and nine provinces and should be invincible in any offensive!
This time, Qi State had come to fight, simply because Han Yuwen had died, and they were picking a fight. Although Qi State was one of the Four Nations, its power was far from that of the Great Cheng Dynasty. Why should they fear them?
“Yingxue, after all, you are a woman and do not understand military affairs. This matter awaits the Ninth Prince’s decision. As your brother has fallen into enemy hands without heeding my advice, he must bear the consequences!”
Anger and annoyance were evident on Su Qingzhi’s face, mixed with distress.
