The Adventures of the Crying Princess

When the battle was getting intense, Taoist Ziying used his old trick again and blew the horn. Yuwen Ji was still a little uneasy, after all, he was not sure about the method suggested by the old valley master.

Just when he was about to ask someone to take the Xue brothers away, he discovered that something seemed to be wrong with the enemy soldiers.

Halfway through the transformation, it suddenly returned to its original form. Could it be that he took the antidote?

This team of "Shaper" was originally a surprise force. Even without them, the enemy's 100,000 soldiers should not be underestimated. Fortunately, the South Camp's combat effectiveness was far superior to the North Camp, so this battle was easier than before.

The battle lasted from day to night and back to day for three days and two nights. Finally, the prince of Yue stood up and told the soldiers not to be misled by the state teacher and not to believe the lies of King Qing.

The generals of the Yue Kingdom who were not poisoned suddenly realized their mistake and threw down their weapons one by one. Yuwen Ji and Bai Yinan teamed up to capture the imperial teacher and handed him over to the crown prince of the Yue Kingdom.

The Crown Prince of Yue was sincerely grateful for the help of Yuwen Ji and others. Before leaving, he promised that he would never be an enemy of Daxing as long as he lived.

This result was what Yuwen Ji wanted. After returning to the county government, Yuwen Ji did not bother to take off his armor and went straight to Bai Yimeng's tent.

Of course I miss you, but more importantly I am worried, inexplicably worried.

Seeing Bai Yimeng feeding the little rabbit, Yuwen Ji finally felt relieved.

"Won?"

"Well, it's not easy..." Yuwen Ji didn't want Bai Yimeng to be exposed to too much blood, so he chose to swallow the rest of his words. He walked up to her and wanted to hug her, but Bai Yimeng smiled and pushed him away, "Go and rest quickly. After you have rested, we have to set off back to Beijing."

"Okay." Yuwen Ji kissed her hair and turned back to the room.

Five days later, the Crown Prince of Yue rescued the old king and dealt with the rebellion of King Qing.

The Crown Prince of Yue State came to Hua'an County again and invited Yuwen Ji to visit the palace. "Father is very grateful to Prince Yi for his help. Without Prince Yi's help, our Yue State would be in danger. The palace has prepared wine and food, please move on, Prince Yi."

"Your Highness, you are too kind. I would also like to see His Majesty, but I have been away for a long time and need to return to the court as soon as possible. Please convey my apologies to His Majesty."

After the greetings, Yuwen Ji ordered to return to the capital. The soldiers began to busily break camp and pack up their things to prepare for departure.

The victory boosted the morale of the entire army, and everyone was full of energy and vigor. Even when working, they felt energetic.

Bai Yimeng has been lazy these days. He either stays in his room feeding rabbits or sits in the room in a daze. He rarely appears in everyone's sight.

"Did you have a fight with the little girl?" Bai Yinan felt something was wrong and poked Yuwen Ji when no one was around.

"Xiao Bai has been acting strange these days. She chases people away after just a few words. I think it's because we were too busy to spend time with her before, so she might be in a bad mood. You know, this girl is prone to temper tantrums."

Bai Yinan nodded as if in agreement, and the two finally decided to go look for Bai Yimeng together.

"How is the cleaning going? As soon as Yuwen Ji entered the door, he saw Bai Yimeng squatting beside him feeding a rabbit. "Is the little rabbit so interesting? Let me have a look."

"Where did the rabbit come from in the military camp?" Bai Yinan shook off his usual seriousness and took the initiative to step forward and talk.

"Brother Luo delivered it to him. He said he picked it up." Bai Yimeng said nothing more after answering this question.

"Are you angry? Everyone has been busy these days and hasn't taken care of you. How about I accompany you to go boating on the lake after we return to Beijing?" Yuwen Ji snatched the rabbit and wanted to get Bai Yimeng to say a few more words.

Bai Yimeng lowered her head and did not move, letting him take it away. After a while, she suddenly started coughing, "You, you either go out or put down the curtain."

Bai Yinan realized something was wrong and pulled the person over. Bai Yimeng looked up and they both saw clearly that there was no color on this little face.

"What's going on!" Bai Yinan wanted to get angry, but couldn't, and bit his lips tightly.

"I'm fine, it's just freezing."

"Nonsense, the grass outside is green now, it's not cold at all." Yuwen Ji ignored Bai Yimeng's objection and picked him up and put him back on the bed. "I won't ask you. When Lord Longgu comes, everything will be clear."

"No, don't go find Master. I just injured my vitality. I will be fine after a few days of rest." Bai Yimeng pulled Yuwen Ji's arm with a pitiful look.

"Don't listen to her. She is afraid of taking medicine and taking medicinal baths. She has been like this since she was a child." Bai Yinan said and walked out.

Lord Longgu arrived quickly, first drove Prince Yi and Bai Yinan out, and then began to take the pulse.

Bai Yimeng stared at his master and wanted to say something, but he felt his chest tighten and couldn't make a sound.

"Lie down, Master will take care of everything for you, don't be afraid."

After comforting his apprentice, Longgu Master walked out of the tent. His eyes swept across the faces of the two and said, "Tomorrow, I will take Xiaoqi back to the valley. As for the epidemic, my senior brother will definitely be able to handle it properly. Your Majesty, please rest assured."

"Excuse me, Master Long, what happened to Xiaobai?" Yuwen Ji felt that something was wrong with Master Long. He didn't tell him the symptoms, but just said he wanted to take everyone away.

Lord Longgu seemed not to have heard him, and spoke after a long while, "Both internal and external injuries are very serious. The fact that he is still alive today is a testament to the spirit of Zhenbei Hou. As for the rest, I can only say that I have done my best."

"Master, my little sister..."

Master Longgu forced a smile and patted his disciple on the shoulder, "Yinan, you will go back to the capital with the prince. Master will take care of everything, don't be afraid."

Yuwen Ji wanted to say something, but he lifted the curtain to look at Bai Yimeng and nodded slightly. Perhaps, leaving would be a good thing for her.

……

This battle was not a beautiful one, but it did prevent the Yue people from attacking for at least fifty years. The army was in a good mood, and the ten-day journey took only eight days.

Even though an epidemic broke out in the capital and people were in panic, Emperor Chengde still led civil and military officials out of the city to welcome the army when he received the news of its triumphant return.

Seeing the joy in Emperor Chengde's eyes, the Prince of Qi and the Crown Prince showed disdain at the same time. Although they also had smiles on their faces, they were a little stiff.

Near noon, Yuwen Ji led his army to the city gate. Seeing Emperor Chengde dismount from his horse, he knelt on one knee and said, "I am late, please forgive me, father."

"It's okay! Get up!" Emperor Chengde helped his son up, his eyes fell on Bai Yinan behind Yuwen Ji, and he smiled with relief, "General Bai, how are you?"

Bai Yinan was shocked and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Guilt..."

"General Bai, please stand up. I will host a banquet in Huanchun Garden tonight. If you are free, why not come along?" Emperor Chengde's call of "General Bai" was nothing more than an affirmation of the Bai family.

"The sinner..."

Perhaps worried that the foolish son of the Bai family didn't understand what he meant, Emperor Chengde lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to be like this. I have sent people to investigate the rebellion of the Marquis of Zhenbei. Don't worry, Your Highness, I will take full responsibility for what happened back then."

The sound was not loud, and Yuwen Ji was close enough to hear it. He looked at his father in confusion, as if questioning his own ears.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Bai Yinan didn't care about that. When someone came to vindicate his family, how could he refuse?

Emperor Chengde was not crazy, nor was he having a sudden whim. It was just that since Concubine Shu was confined to her house, his mind seemed to have suddenly become much clearer.

Everything that was unclear and unclear in the past became clear overnight.

A few days ago, we received evidence from Bai Yimeng that the mother and son of the King of Qi were investigating and colluding with the barbarians.

After seeing these bloody evidences, the old emperor felt an indescribable guilt when he saw Bai Yinan again. This was also the main reason why he was determined to clear the name of the Bai family.

"By the way, where is that little monkey?" Emperor Chengde's gaze wandered among the soldiers, and when he didn't see Bai Yimeng, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

Little monkey, this elegant title is beyond doubt, no one can be qualified except Bai Yimeng. Yuwen Ji glanced at Bai Yinan, "Father, the child is sick and was taken away by her master."

Emperor Chengde frowned upon hearing this, and after a long moment, he murmured, "Well, let's talk about it later."
