Chapter 432 Revealing the truth
Murong Yanhui stood behind her, looking at the woman in front of him with anxious eyes. He was really stupid. He didn't even guess such a familiar feeling. He was even scared just now, thinking that he had accidentally hugged a man.
Can a man be so soft? Can a man be so fragrant? Can a man be so irresistible?
The more Murong Yanhui thought about it, the more annoyed he became. What had happened last night? Why couldn't he remember anything? What a pity!
Yu Qingli finally calmed down. Although she still felt that the current situation was a bit strange, it was obviously not the time to be entangled. She also knew that if she did not communicate well with Murong Yanhui, he probably would not have the heart to fight properly.
After Yu Qingli calmed down, she turned around and said, "Sit down first. Your medicine hasn't been changed yet."
Murong Yanhui obediently sat down on a small stool, allowing Yu Qingli to take off his clothes and change the medicine.
"The medicine I prepared might not be as good as yours, so it might be a little painful."
"It's okay." Murong Yanhui was still waiting, waiting for Yu Qingli's explanation. In fact, what he wanted to know more now was why even Murong Feng knew that she would come to the military camp, but he knew nothing about it.
Yu Qingli seemed to see what Murong Yanhui was thinking. She helped him change the medicine gently while telling him the story.
"Actually, I told Murong Feng this to alleviate his suspicions. Of course, doing so will also help gain his trust!"
"Why do you always want to gain Murong Feng's trust?"
"Because only in this way can I help him sit on the throne! Didn't I say before that I am destined to become Murong Feng's queen in this life?"
"Lili..."
Murong Yanhui was somewhat resentful. Yu Qingli sighed softly, "Well, actually, letting Murong Feng sit on the throne isn't my real goal. I want him to fall from that high position and be shattered to pieces!"
Seeing Murong Yanhui looking a little dazed, Yu Qingli frowned, "Why? Now you realize that I'm not as beautiful as you imagined? I'm not a gentle flower at all, but a vicious man-eating plant. It's not too late for you to regret it now!"
"Repent? How is that possible!"
Murong Yanhui was unusually resolute. Although he didn't know what kind of deep hatred there was between Yu Qingli and Murong Yanhui, looking at Yu Qingli's current situation, it was obvious that she was very determined to get revenge. In that case, why shouldn't he help her? As early as the moment he completely fell in love with this woman, he had already gone crazy!
"So, Lili, what are you doing in this military camp?"
Seeing Murong Yanhui's calm attitude, Yu Qingli felt a little uncomfortable. She always felt like she was taking advantage of his feelings for her, but now she really needed this help.
Putting aside the emotions in her heart, Yu Qingli told Murong Yanhui about her plan one by one, but ended up causing Murong Yanhui's disapproval.
"Lili, I hope you can give up this plan!" Murong Yan replied earnestly.
"why?"
"The battlefield isn't as simple as you think. Lin Zhi and Murong Yuan both have martial arts skills, so it's okay if they insist on staying. At least they can protect themselves. But you're different. You don't have any martial arts skills at all. If you run into danger..."
"I will be careful, and Xiluo will protect me! What's more, I'm a military doctor, so I don't need to go to the battlefield at all. I just need to stay behind the barracks. Where can I be in any danger?"
"Lili!"
"Murong Yanhui, I told you my plan not because I wanted your objection. If you really want to drive me away, then I will go directly to Murong Feng. Anyway, I have already agreed with him before. I will go to him when necessary!"
Murong Yan's eyes flashed with anger. Was Lili threatening him? She was actually testing his patience with another man? Enough!
"I won't allow you to!" Murong Yanhui grabbed Yu Qingli's hand domineeringly, "You are not allowed to go to Murong Feng without my permission."
Yu Qingli said cunningly, "So you agree that I can stay?"
Murong Yanhui's face suddenly turned cold. "Okay, you can stay, but you have to follow my instructions."
Yu Qingli thought for a moment. After all, she had to obey the orders of the general in the military camp. "Okay, I'll follow your instructions!"
Yu Qingli never thought that the condition she casually agreed to would make Murong Yan become more and more demanding. He even officially transferred her to his side that afternoon and made her his exclusive military doctor.
That's enough!
Although Yu Qingli knew that Murong Yanhui did all this because he wanted to protect her, but hadn't he heard the rumors in the military camp? He actually treated her well without paying attention to anyone else.
First, all kinds of fine things were sent to her, and then he openly rode with her. All of a sudden, what was originally just a rumor seemed to be confirmed, and everyone in the army knew that Doctor Li was having an affair with the general.
Yu Qingli had no way to defend herself. In order to conceal her identity, staying with Murong Yanhui was indeed the best choice. However, since she moved into Murong Yanhui's tent, Murong Yanhui transferred Lin Zhi to Murong Yuan, making it clear that he did not want to see Lin Zhi again.
Linzhi felt disappointed and puzzled. Why did the King of Yan suddenly fall in love with a man?
Soon, they arrived at Qing'an City. According to Murong Yanhui's plan, all the soldiers were divided into groups. However, unlike what Yang Cheng and others had mentioned before, Murong Yanhui did not directly let the elite soldiers go to the border first. Instead, he organized them into groups of ten people, with three elite soldiers, three middle-level soldiers, and four lower-level soldiers in each group. He also asked them to choose a captain to be in charge of the team. Afterwards, he mobilized half of the troops and marched towards Moliang City first.
Yang Cheng and others were convinced by Murong Yanhui's arrangement. This way, they could go to the rescue as soon as possible without letting the morale of the soldiers drop, and even more so, the entire army would not be annihilated. For a moment, no one dared to question Murong Yanhui's command ability. This former god of war did not deserve the title!
Because the war was urgent, Murong Yanhui led the troops ahead, and the rest of the army was led by Yu Lihan, hoping to catch up with them as soon as possible. Murong Feng and others also followed the army behind.
On the sixth day, Murong Yanhui and others arrived at the border of Moliang. Compared with the capital, this border was indeed very harsh. It was surrounded by mountains, but there was only a vast expanse of white. The soldiers felt colder as they walked. Fortunately, they had made preparations in advance. However, wearing those heavy cotton clothes, the soldiers found it difficult to even take a step, let alone march. Their speed suddenly slowed down a lot.
Murong Yanhui gave orders and purchased a lot of mutton to make soup. Each soldier drank a bowl, and then they felt a little better. However, in this way, Murong Yanhui's previous arrangements showed their benefits. The soldiers in each team helped each other. Even those soldiers who were originally classified as privates improved a lot compared to before under the leadership of several other elite soldiers. After another day of walking, they finally arrived at Xiangyi City.
Because of the fall of Moliang City, many people fled from the city and crowded into Xiangyi City, which was not far from Moliang. Xiangyi City was previously famous for its spices, but now with frequent wars, the people no longer have such thoughts, and the entire Xiangyi City is very depressed.
When Murong Yanhui arrived with his army, the people in the city felt as if they had seen the last ray of hope in their despair. They spontaneously came out of the city to greet them. A middle-aged man stood in front of the crowd with a solemn expression. When he saw Murong Yanhui, he led the others in kowtow and said, "General, thank you for coming so quickly. If you hadn't come soon, I'm afraid none of us would have survived!"
"General, please stand up. What should I address you?"
"I, General Zhang Wei, am the city's defender. Since Moliang City was breached, we've held out for over half a month. Fortunately, Xiangyi City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Otherwise, with the troops in the city, we would be no match for those northerners!"
"General Zhang, thank you for your hard work! You've done a great job. Leave the rest to us."
"Let's all go inside and talk!"
General Zhang led Murong Yanhui and others into the city, arranged a camp for the soldiers, and then personally took Murong Yan back to the City Lord's Mansion. The mayor of Xiangyi City unfortunately died in the battle. Since he had no family, the City Lord's Mansion was empty, and the convenient terrain made it a temporary command post.
As they traveled, these soldiers who followed Murong Yanhui began to feel a strong anger in their hearts. Seeing their compatriots displaced and the Xiangyi people who were also soldiers, each of them had a resolute expression and insisted on patrolling even though they were injured, these soldiers were completely touched.
Although this was the first time these Canghe soldiers had seen such a scene, no one retreated or was afraid. Something called fighting spirit ignited in their hearts, making them unable to calm down.
"General Zhang, Moliang City has fallen. Why aren't there so many refugees in the city?"
As soon as they settled down, Murong Yanhui asked curiously. Although he had seen many miserable scenes along the way, they were far from what he had imagined. Moliang City was more than twice as large as Xiangyi. Logically, Xiangyi should be crowded at this time. Why did the whole city look so depressed?
General Zhang fell silent for a moment, his eyes reddened as if he was trying hard to suppress his grief. After a long moment, he finally spoke, "Because the people of Moliang City are all dead!"
"They're all dead!" Murong Yan was surprised at Yu Qingli who was standing beside her.
General Zhang's deputy general angrily declared, "Those northern beasts, after capturing Moliang City, burned, killed, and looted. The people couldn't stand it and rebelled, only to be slaughtered! From the eighty-year-old elder to the two-three-month-old child, no one was spared. Blood flowed like a river, and the bodies of the people piled up like a mountain. Those northern beasts, feeling it was too much trouble to deal with the bodies in the city, actually brought snow wolves into the city and fed the bodies to the wolves!"
