Double Life: The Sickly Prince Eavesdrops on My Heart

Xiao Jingxuan ordered five thousand imperial guards to march towards Qingyue Mountain.

It was already evening when they set out. After a whole night of forced march, the large army finally arrived at the territory of Qingyue Mountain in the early morning.

"Hey..." Xiao Jingxuan waved his hand, and the army immediately stopped advancing. "Fei Ye, tell them to go to the woods ahead to rest for an hour."

The large army arrived at the dense forest and began to build a stove, light a fire, and boil water. The soldiers were busy doing their duties.

The soldiers were able to go into battle with King Jing this time. Although it was not a large battlefield, they were still full of energy and spirit. In their hearts, King Jing was an absolute god of war and general!

Three years ago, in the battle with the Northern Qi Kingdom, Xiao Jingxuan defeated the Northern Qi Kingdom's 100,000 cavalry with only 30,000 soldiers and horses, writing the most beautiful battle in the decades of history of the Great Sheng Kingdom!

Feixue took out the meat pie she brought and handed it to Xiao Jingxuan, "Your Majesty, please eat a few more. You haven't eaten since yesterday. Your body can't take it!"

Xiao Jingxuan took the meat pie and glanced at Feixue. "You are always nagging, how can you be a powerful vanguard!"

Feixue curled her lips and said aggrievedly: "My Lord, I am just concerned about you. If everyone is as careless as Feiye, who will take care of you?"

Fei Ye and Fei Xue have followed Xiao Jingxuan since they were young, and their relationship with him is different from that with other servants. They have been practicing martial arts and studying together with Xiao Jingxuan since they were young.

Although Fei Ye is shy and introverted, he is not as meticulous as Fei Xue. Their personalities complement each other perfectly.

At this time, Fei Ye came hurriedly, "Report to the prince, the bandits from Qingyue Mountain were found ten miles ahead. They set up a sentry there. That mountain is probably their lair."

After hearing this, Xiao Jingxuan said seriously: "Call the vanguard officers and deputy generals to hold a combat meeting!"

After discussion, Xiao Jingxuan and several others worked out a combat plan, and then the army began to move forward.

Within half an hour, the large army arrived at the foot of Qingyue Mountain.

After the sentry on the mountain discovered the situation, he quickly ran back to the mountain stronghold to report the news. Xiao Jingxuan ordered the troops to set up camp at the foot of the mountain.

Inside Qingyue Village.

A small minion ran in in a hurry, panting and shouting: "Boss, it's bad, the imperial army is coming, there are so many people!"

Sitting on the throne in the middle of the hall was a man with a face full of flesh, a beard, sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes. He was wearing a black embroidered and gilded robe and was wiping a crescent-shaped sword in his hand.

"Why are you panicking? No matter how many of them come, they will never come back! They dare to touch Qingyue Mountain!" the bearded boss said sarcastically.

Do they really think Qingyue is just a bunch of bandits?

The bearded man shouted an order, "Come on, prepare to fight! Today is the day they die!"

Qingyue Mountain is the highest and most precipitous mountain within a hundred miles of Kyoto. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack, which is why this group of bandits has been rampant until now.

The natural barrier was also a weapon for these people. They robbed and massacred civilians, and merchants and businessmen suffered the most.

At the foot of Qingyue Mountain, vanguard Feixue and deputy general Ma Feng stood in front of the formation on horseback.

"You rats, surrender immediately and I will spare your life!" Deputy General Ma Feng shouted.

The bearded man laughed with disdain, "You are just a bunch of kids, your hair hasn't even grown out yet, today I will let you have a taste of my crescent blade!"

Feixue and Ma Feng looked at each other, then shouted loudly: "Attack Qingyue Mountain, charge!

Upon hearing the order, the soldiers began to attack the mountain gate, and the two sides soon engaged in battle.

The Qingyue Mountain bandits relied on their geographical advantage to launch a rockfall attack from top to bottom, while multiple rockets were also fired from above.

Many soldiers who failed to dodge in time were injured. Feixue and Ma Feng were fighting with a bearded man. The man had ruthless swordsmanship and was extremely fast. Feixue and Ma Feng could barely fight him to a draw.

Suddenly, there was chaos at the foot of the mountain, with smoke rising everywhere and sounds of fighting, killing and wailing coming continuously.

On the other side of Qingyue Mountain, Xiao Jingxuan led a small team of fifty people to climb the mountain from the flank. The mountain was overgrown with weeds and thorns, and the dozens of people moved slowly.

After climbing for half an hour, they finally found a hidden path. Everyone was exhausted and sat down to rest.

In the prison cell of Qingyue Village.

No one has come here since Qin Ruhuan was kidnapped yesterday. She spent the whole night in a daze and guessed that the person who kidnapped her would not kill her directly.

She leaned against the wall and rubbed the black cloth covering her eyes back and forth, finally rubbing it off. Only then could she see everything here clearly.

It was a very simple house with no furnishings except a long wooden bench and some grass on the floor. There was a small window one foot square above the room, which was sealed with a wooden fence.

The sunlight shone through the cracks in the wood, casting a shadow on the damp and dark room.

There was a wooden door locked with a thick iron chain. It looked like she couldn't break out by herself, so she might as well make the best of it.

At this time, there was the sound of iron chains rattling, someone was coming!

Qin Ruhuan immediately leaned against the wall and closed her eyes to pretend to sleep. "Wake up, it's time for dinner!" someone shouted at her.

Qin Ruhuan slowly opened her eyes and looked up at the person who came in. A boy of about eighteen or nineteen years old was standing in front of her.

The young man was wearing a white robe with auspicious cloud patterns, a white jade and gold-thread waist belt around his waist. He had delicate eyebrows and a handsome face. He didn't look like a bandit who would kidnap people.

Qin Ruhuan's fair face was dirty, and her aqua blue lotus skirt was horrible. She looked at the boy and asked, "Why did you tie me up and bring me here? What is your purpose?"

The young man narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Don't make a mistake, I didn't tie you up, this matter has nothing to do with me! I just heard that they caught a girl and came to take a look!"

Qin Ruhuan glanced at him and said, "Then you are not a good person either. Anyone who hangs out with bandits is also a bandit!"

The young man put his hands on his hips and angrily said, "Who do you say is a bandit? Who do you say is a bandit?"

When Qin Ruhuan saw that the boy was getting anxious, she thought to herself: This guy is just a child, he can be saved this time, let's start with him!

"You said you're not a bandit. What evidence do you have? Why did you appear in a bandit's den? You look handsome and elegant. You don't look like a bad guy at all!"

The young man sat on the wooden bench, with one foot on the other side of the bench, and said embarrassedly: "I have no choice, my sister was captured and taken to the village, and I came to find her!"

"But if I don't join them, I can't get in, so I found a way to sneak in, but I still haven't found my sister!"

Qin Ruhuan's eyes lit up when she heard this. It turned out that he was not an accomplice of the bandits! That made things much easier!

Qin Ruhuan picked up the bowl and took a few bites. Although it tasted bad, she would not have the energy to escape if she was not full!
