Chapter 209 Going to the city in person
At this moment, Chen Yu, who was standing to the side, hurriedly stepped forward, clasped his fists in salute, and said to the prince earnestly, "My prince, in my humble opinion, what the princess said is absolutely right!
You must not be reckless or impulsive at this moment. You must know that many innocent people in the city are waiting for you to come and save them from the dire situation."
Hearing this, Yun Muheng couldn't help but frown and fell into a brief moment of contemplation. His eyes, which had been burning with rage, gradually regained their composure.
Then, he slowly raised his head, turned his gaze to the princess beside him, and said softly: "Xue'er, I was indeed too impatient just now." After speaking, he gently reached into his arms with his right hand and fumbled around, and took out a golden token.
The token is shining brightly all over, with exquisite patterns and mysterious symbols engraved on the front and a big word "Soldier" engraved on the back, demonstrating its extraordinary authority.
Yun Muheng solemnly handed the token to Chen Yu and said in a low voice, "Chen Yu, this is the token for mobilizing troops and generals. You must take this token and rush to the border to find General Wanshan.
Tell him to assemble the army immediately, stand ready, and be fully prepared to fight at any time and anywhere.
In addition, he was ordered to personally lead a team of elite soldiers to Muyang County as soon as possible, without any mistakes!"
Chen Yu nodded solemnly, taking the token with both hands. Then, without hesitation, he turned and jumped onto his horse, his movements smooth and efficient.
As the crisp sound of a whip resounded through the night sky, the horse's hooves raised clouds of dust, and Chen Yu galloped away like an arrow, disappearing into the vast night in the blink of an eye.
After witnessing this scene, Ouyang Zhi immediately ordered his men to quickly invite General Ma over.
At the same time, he took out the jade pendant that symbolized his noble status from his arms, and handed it to General Ma together with the preliminary governance plan carefully written by Ye Chuxue.
At this moment, Ouyang Zhi's face was extremely solemn. He instructed General Ma in an extremely serious and unquestionable tone: "General Ma, this situation is urgent. You must quickly take this jade pendant with you to the barracks to dispatch troops.
He led a team of elite troops to the severely affected county as quickly as possible.
In addition, remember to send a message immediately to the generals guarding the border, asking them to remain highly vigilant at all times and be fully prepared to engage in battle at any time.
After arriving in the city, do not have any contact or communication with anyone in the city. Don't worry about those red tapes, just control everyone in the city directly!
I'm worried that this city may have already fallen into the hands of the invaders, so I absolutely cannot trust the local county magistrate's words."
Hearing this, General Ma's eyes widened in shock. He asked in disbelief, "What? How could there be people from Kou? What on earth is going on?"
Facing General Ma's doubts, Ouyang Zhi shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice: "The situation is complicated at the moment, and it is difficult to explain the reasons clearly at the moment.
Time is pressing and there is no time for delay. You should leave for the border immediately. I will come personally shortly."
General Ma knew that the situation had developed to an extremely serious level, and no matter how many words he said, they would seem pale, powerless and meaningless at this moment.
So he decisively stopped talking and nimbly jumped on the horse. After the horse's hooves raised a cloud of dust, he disappeared into the night as quickly as a flash of lightning.
The next morning, the sky was just beginning to turn light, and Yun Muheng, who had not slept all night, had already decided to get up and go to the city to find out what was going on.
After all, a new day has begun, which means that more than a hundred innocent lives will face life and death.
At the same time, Ye Chuxue, who also had not slept all night, happened to see Yun Muheng, who was originally lying under the couch, slowly sitting up.
Full of suspicion, she whispered softly, "Your Highness, where are you planning to go so early in the morning?"
Yun Muheng frowned and replied worriedly, "After much thought, I still can't rest easy for the people in the city who are trapped in a miserable state like purgatory. I have decided to go to the city myself to investigate the specific situation."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chuxue's face suddenly changed. She quickly sat up straight and tried to dissuade him, "Your Highness, you absolutely cannot do this! It is too dangerous for you to go there alone.
I hope you will be patient and wait for a moment. I firmly believe that Chen Yu will be able to return soon, and it would be best for us to go together then."
"No! I am extremely panicked at the moment. I must go and check it out myself before I can feel at ease. Please stop trying to persuade me.
Besides, as you said, General Chen will soon return with his army. By then, who would dare to threaten me?"
Ye Chuxue looked at the stubborn Yun Muheng in front of her, knowing that she could not persuade him no matter what. She could not help but sigh softly, shook her head helplessly, and had to give up.
She stood up slowly, and using her wide sleeves to cover herself, she skillfully turned her wrists and took out several exquisite porcelain bottles from her sleeves like a magic trick.
Ye Chuxue pointed at one of the porcelain bottles, and Yun Muheng said, "Your Highness, this bottle contains detoxification pills that can neutralize hundreds of common poisons in the world.
Even when encountering extremely strong poisons, it can still play a certain role in suppressing the toxicity.
As for the remaining porcelain bottles, they are all filled with poison. I hope they can help the prince at the critical moment.
After saying that, she handed the porcelain bottle in her hand to Yun Muheng.
Yun Muheng looked at Ye Chuxue with gratitude and carefully took the precious medicine bottles.
Then, without hesitation, he opened the porcelain bottle containing the detoxification pills, poured out a pill, put it into his mouth, and swallowed it.
After doing all this, he turned around and walked away with firm steps. His figure soon disappeared from Ye Chuxue's sight.
Just as Ye Chuxue was staring at Yun Muheng's receding figure, filled with melancholy,
Ye Xiaotuan, who had been lying quietly on the couch, suddenly opened his big black eyes without any warning.
His eyes rolled around, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing an imperceptible sly smile.
Then, he pretended to be drowsy as if he had just woken up, and called out to Ye Chuxue in a baby voice, "Mom, I need to pee~"
