Cang Ri Qing Lan

Leaving the bloody battlefield, the dense branches and vines are intertwined like an ingenious and gorgeous dome, and the whole world is a quiet green.The weak sunlight cascaded through the leaves and fell among the lingering mist, wisps of light flowing.There was no way to be found in the forest, and the long queue became sluggish and silent due to the accumulated rot that hadn't passed the horse's hoof.

Cang Lan's mount was very close to Shen Haozhe, and he only listened to the other party detailing the matters that Chen Fang Honggeng dealt with.In addition, He Lianyu's teeth interrupted from time to time, which made the general's regular performance even more ambiguous.

Shen Haozhe had a headache, and when he was helpless, Cang Lan reined in his horse and stopped.

A group of people in front were picking up the corpses of the soldiers, when they saw Cang Lan and his party, one of them rushed up to meet him, warning the surrounding guards not to stop him when they saw the logo of the messenger soldier on him.

"Your Majesty, the people who were leading the way were attacked by surprise, nearby..."

The messenger soldier forgot to dismount his horse and salute completely, the moment he changed his tone in a panic, a black thing came towards Cang Lan with the sound of wind!

Without even thinking about it, Helian Yuya pulled the soldier to block Cang Lan.

With the sound of a sharp blade piercing into the flesh, a revolving knife was sharply nailed to the messenger soldier's neck. It was so powerful that it almost chopped off his head and neck. Blood gushed out from the superior carotid artery, and the blood spattered Helian Yuya's face!

"There is an ambush!"

With the sound of shouting, the connecting feather arrows came one after another!

Helian Yuya didn't have time to wipe the blood on his face, and reached out to grab Cang Lan, but it was in vain.

There was a flicker of cold light in the forest, and a sudden glimpse of a head of brown hair disappeared, Cang Lan stood up in a strange way, and just as she moved, she was thrown down by Shen Haozhe.He was suffocated by the heavy armor of the other party, and he was still speechless, only to feel his eyes darken, Xing Ye flew towards him and blocked him, he turned his head and looked, and all the soldiers rushing out from the opposite side were Linxue soldiers. There is no trace of his familiar figure.

It seemed that what appeared just now was a phantom calling him to another world, but the weight on his body reminded him of reality and made him unable to move.

Qing Ling's mount was behind him, only to hear shouts from all around him, he was stunned for a moment, and saw Cang Lan's war horse overturned to the ground, full of feathered arrows, hurriedly galloped towards this side with a bow in his hand, and saw It was only when Helian Yuya, who ordered the soldiers to fight, showed no signs of worry, he was relieved.

Cang Lan was unscathed, even a few bruises were hit by Shen Haozhe's armor.

He was lying on his back on the soft dead leaves, Shen Haozhe's resolute silhouette was in front of him, the obvious fear in the deep eyes of the other party fixed his sight,

"Your Majesty...you can't..."

Can't say anything, Shen Haozhe didn't say any more, but Cang Lan felt that she could understand.

Because he also said similar things to Yiyan, he remembered saying 'must come back alive'.

Cang Lan couldn't help laughing, he seemed to be able to connect everything, every sentence, every action with Yi Yan, so it turns out that haunting dreams is so simple...!

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Haozhe finally let go and backed away, Cang Lan reflexively held Helian Yuya's outstretched hand, and sat up.

Only then did I realize that when I fell to the ground, the battle had already been decided, and the guards swarmed up, killing almost one-sidedly, and none of the ambushed enemies were spared.

"No more than a hundred people came, and they were all disabled soldiers."

Helian Yuya took an inventory of the battlefield and quickly came to a conclusion.

Qing Ling threw away the longbow, carefully inspecting the bruises on Cang Lan's body, the meticulous attention to detail when taking care of 'Prince Yi' has long since become a habit.

Hearing this, Fang felt that this team of Lin Xue soldiers came strangely, and murmured,

"We have a lot of people here, so we can tell at a glance, do they intend to come to die?"

"These people stayed behind because they were injured and couldn't evacuate in time. They knew that there was more danger..."

Shen Haozhe scanned the corpses on the ground, and already had the answer in his heart.

Speaking of this, Cang Lan, who hadn't said a word, finally responded, and calmly continued,

"They must hate me."

"Your Majesty is politically lenient,"

Shen Haozhe frowned disapprovingly when he heard the words, and said,

"People in Linxue will eventually be convinced."

Cang Lan didn't say a word, only said,

"Slow down, the wounded soldiers left behind by the Linxue army must be in order to rest and regroup the army, and they will encounter their army when they leave this mountain."

Undoubtedly, another bloody battle awaited ahead, and the deeper one went into Linxue, the fiercer the battle would be.

Shen Haozhe and Qingling fell silent at the same time.

Only Helian Yuya snorted coldly, his murderous aura was overwhelming, he looked at Qingling, he didn't know whether it was Qingling's actions, or the Lin Xuejun just now that made him feel uneasy,

"Whoever wants to die, let him come."

The Jun army advanced all night without encountering half of the enemy. At midnight, they finally passed through the mountains and reached an open area.

Compared with the previous rugged mountainous terrain, it was more conducive to marching and setting up formations, so Cang Lan ordered a cessation and asked Shen Haozhe to choose a high place to set up camp for defense.

After the fierce battle the night before and the two days and one night march, everyone was extremely exhausted, and even the energetic Helian Yuya couldn't hold back and fell asleep.

Cang Lan gently pulled away the red-haired man who had been entangled with her all this time, and if the other party felt it, he hugged him even tighter with hands and feet.

Cang Lan stretched out her hand, heard He Lianyu's heavy breathing, opened her hands slowly, and put it on her shoulder without moving, but she didn't know that those red eyes quietly opened, and after a long time, they closed again.

Helian Yuya could feel that Cang Lan was more gentle to the people around her than before, as if she couldn't give Yi Yan the gentleness and passed it on to other people.

He clearly knew how dangerous and fragile this kind of tenderness was, but he couldn't extricate himself. He didn't even want to confirm whether the blue eyes he met on the battlefield the day before yesterday were actually Yi Yan.He wished he could get rid of everyone who entered Cang Lan's heart, but... if there was anything more irresistible than the other party's dazzling brilliance, it was this softness, and he would never let it disappear.

If possible, he would like to tie this person to his side day and night, but he needs to deal with the Linxue army with all his strength--the civil strife in Nanhui will be decided, and King Hui should have heard the news that he is by Cang Lan's side. Just in case, before that, calm down the north and return to the kingdom of Shijun.Moreover, the more chaotic the situation, the more people fish in troubled waters. As soon as he came together, his subordinates reported something that made him very unhappy.

Shen Haojin was rescued.

Helian Yuya didn't care who rescued Shen Haojin, as long as he pulled out his hand, he would definitely turn Shen Haojin out again, no one could stop him, except...

The face in his mind suddenly coincided with the scene in his eyes, and He Lianyu's teeth froze for a moment before he realized that Cang Lan had returned to the big tent.

There was a corpse lying down in the tent, it was clearly He Lian Yuya's subordinate, Cang Lan glanced at the blood-stained saber in the other's hand, and only signaled Mi Ke to call someone to clean it up, then sat down on the couch, raised his hand slightly voice, reconciliation heretics,

"Let them in."

There were unexpectedly quite a few people waiting outside, except for Feng Yancheng, the commanders from all walks of life came in one by one, obviously they had important matters to discuss.

"You don't ask me?"

Helian Yuya didn't seem to notice the group of generals who filed in, and sat down next to Cang Lan.

There was no foolish word, but Cang Lan said clearly,

"You want me to ask?"

"I want you to be by my side no matter what."

Helian Yuya answered the wrong question, Cang Lan turned her head, looked at him for a while, and said,

"I can only promise you that no matter what consequences you do, I will bear it."

Helian Yuya was stunned, unexpectedly felt that Cang Lan might not be ignorant of what she had done for no reason.

All the people present showed strange expressions. Although Cang Lan said it lightly, but in front of so many ministers, whether it was a promise or a restraint, the meaning was unusual.

"His Majesty……!"

Qingling took a step forward, moved his lips, but he couldn't say anything, in the end he just turned his gaze, staring at Helian Yuya for a moment.

He Lianyu's teeth brushed over Shen Haozhe intentionally or unintentionally, and brought the blue color under Cang Lan's eyelids into his eyes, rarely showing any complacency.

He doesn't regret at all that he attacked Shen Haojin and made Cang Lan suffer, he will repay twice as much, otherwise, he would be worthy of his name of Helian Yuya!It would be even better if Shen Haozhe and Cang Lan had a relationship because of this.

It's just annoyed that I underestimated this frail young man so much that the timing of Shen Haojin's escape was so unfortunate—at least when Cang Lan's situation improved, Shen Haozhe would no longer be of any use.

Sensing something from the attitudes of several people, Shen Haozhe frowned tightly, feeling a very bad premonition in his heart.

No one spoke for a while, and Lei Jiao finally couldn't help coughing dryly,

"Your Majesty, the city of Linxue is not far away, do you want to surrender first?"

Xinda's eyes flowed, and he quietly turned from the men, and smiled cooperatively,

"The enemy army is waiting in full battle, I am afraid they will not surrender."

"It seems that there is only one battle. The enemy is in front of us, so we have to work together."

Stared at by He Lianyu's teeth, Lei Jiao shrank his neck and said,

"I mean spies in the army..."

As he spoke, he winked and winked, until Cang Lan raised his eyes, there was no smile on his face, and he couldn't help but shuddered.

Xin Da and Li Dan exchanged a look, and they both felt that the people in the seat were different from before.

Only Jin Duo really felt that the emperor should be unpredictable, so he said respectfully,

"Your Majesty, soldiers never tire of deceit. The military's secret work is not known yet, so it can be used again."

When Shen Haozhe heard this, he temporarily put down his thoughts, sorted out the spies' news, and said in a deep voice,

"Linxue counterattacks with all his strength, and it is already a decisive battle. He will definitely use his troops cautiously, and then countermeasures may have little effect. It is better to clear them as soon as possible."

Fang Buddha had anticipated the meeting and this matter, Cang Lan lowered her eyelids and said,

"Let's see who it is first."

Cang Lan spent so much time and effort, this person is naturally not an ordinary meticulous worker.

When Leng Zhou came in, Xing Ye's mind went blank, he held his sword hilt deliberately not to look at people, and only waited for Cang Lan's order.

Fortunately, Leng Zhou didn't come in alone.

This person is very familiar with Shen Haozhe and Zhu Wu. If this person is a spy, then he must not be kept because he knows too much.

Tang Tuo is not only a military doctor, he is erudite and talented, and he is responsible for the civil affairs and water conservancy in Changzhou. This time he went north, and he also participated in the post-war Anmin rectification. above.

Zhu Wu didn't dare to make a sound since he entered the account, and he couldn't hold his breath at this time. After all, Tang Tuo had served Cang Lan longer than him.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Tang served in Changzhou when His Majesty was still Prince Yi. Is there a mistake?"

With just this one sentence, Tang Tuo knew that something was wrong. He first looked at Cang Lan in panic.What came into his eyes was a calm face, neither angry nor disappointed. Tang Tuo knew that with such an expression, the emperor must have solid evidence, and saying anything was superfluous.With no room for excuses, he calmed down instead,

"The emperor's kindness to me, the guilty minister failed the holy will, ten thousand deaths cannot atone for the crime!"

Tang Tuo's gratitude to Cang Lan was not fake at all, but he cared too much, spent half his life, and his wife and children who stayed in Linxue when he fled were still his key points.

Loyalty and selflessness, although it is a virtue that is respected by people in this era, it is not something that everyone can do.

Cang Lan is not arrogant enough to ask others to be loyal to him above everything else, nor is he kind enough to turn a blind eye to betrayal.

Tang Tuo was cut off from his post and taken into custody. He committed suicide two days later.

Like most people, Tang Tuo chose the latter between Cang Lan and his family. The only difference is that he has talents that others do not have.

His talent caused people to have different opinions on his death. Some people condemned his infidelity, while others deeply regretted that the emperor was ruthless and violent.

However, the army soon forgot about it, and when the news of Tang Tuo's death was reported, the battle between the Jun army and Lin Xue Kongqian was imminent.
