Chapter 242 It’s almost done

Bai Mingyu sneered: "General Bian, are you a little anxious? If you hadn't deceived the emperor, how could the Bai family army have lost so many people?"

"King Nan, please stop hating me. These are all decisions made by the emperor."

The soldiers held knives in their hands and looked at them hesitantly as they quarreled, who should they listen to?

At this time, a slight cough came from under the tree. Baoshun hurriedly ran over, squatted down, and helped the emperor's body up.

He couldn't afford to offend these two people, and he didn't dare not listen. The only one who could make the decision now was the emperor.

The emperor covered the back of his head, feeling pain. He closed his eyes slightly and remembered what happened before he fainted.

He looked at Brother Wang, who was standing there straight, and said, "Very good, he still has the courage to come back."

"King Nan, how dare you attack me."

Bai Mingyu said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this is just a temporary measure. King Kun's goal has always been the Emperor's life. The Emperor's life is related to the entire Dashuo, so we must not be careless."

Baoshun noticed that he wanted to stand up and used some force on his arms. The emperor stood up and opened his arms. He saw that the fabric on his chest was torn. Other than that, he did not feel any discomfort.

Just treat what he said as the truth, but he also wanted to save face and knocked him unconscious in front of the soldiers. How could he give orders after that?

"How's it going at the military camp?"

"It has been destroyed by King Kun. The land is not safe now. It is better to find another place to pitch the tent."

Yu Cong rushed here and knelt on the ground: "One batch of grain was rescued, and the other batch was burned by the fire."

Bai Mingyu asked: "How long can the food in the city last?"

"About a week." If we go by the previous number of people, it would only take a few days.

Bai Mingyu implored: "Your Majesty, it is more important to solve the food problem now. It is better to send the letter back to the capital as soon as possible."

The emperor himself couldn't stand being hungry, so how could he let all the soldiers go hungry, so he said: "I will write a letter immediately to arrange food supplies."

Bian Xi saw that they were discussing and harmonious, so he couldn't help but interject.

"Your Majesty, although King Nan hurt you out of necessity, all the soldiers have seen it. If King Nan does not punish his behavior, how can he convince the public?"

The emperor felt that what he said was reasonable and this kind of behavior should not be encouraged.

"Come here, take King Nan and give him twenty sticks."

Most of the people who survived and guarded here were Bai family soldiers. They said unconvinced: "Your Majesty, if it hadn't been for the king's desperation, I'm afraid the emperor would have died by now. This will all be punished. What's the law of heaven?"

When one person spoke up, the people behind him became much bolder: "Yes, you can't punish the prince."

The emperor frowned, showing a troubled look. He wanted to keep his military morale stable, but his behavior must not encourage it.

Bai Mingyu said respectfully: "My lord, I accept the punishment voluntarily."

He took off his armor and stood upright. Yu Cong held the stick and was reluctant to take it off. In the past, it was the prince who punished them.

When Bian Xi saw that his man was holding a stick, he was afraid that he would be too gentle. Bian Xi snatched the stick, raised it, and landed heavily on him.

Bai Mingyu didn't even frown, but Bian Xi felt that the blow was too light, so he used more force.

The stick hit him and broke two sections instantly.

The emperor felt that this was a bit much, so he coughed lightly and said, "That's almost enough."

Bian Xi understood what the emperor meant. He still had a dozen sticks left. He was not very powerful, but he could teach Bai Mingyu a lesson.

As night fell, they rested where they were. He moved forward and back with his shirt on, lying on the tree trunk, while Yu Cong took medicine to treat his wounds.

Seeing the bruises on the prince's body, he suddenly felt that the punishment they had received before was just a small fight. This was too serious.

Bian Xi saw that everyone was resting and walked quietly deep into the woods. He spread his palms and the carrier pigeon smelled the smell and immediately flew down and stood on his arm.

He stuffed the letter into the pigeon's lap, raised his arm, and the pigeon immediately flew into the sky.

After doing this, he looked around cautiously to make sure no one went back.

The pigeon was shot before it even flew out of the woods. The secret guard took the letter from the pigeon and left the place.

After Bai Mingyu's wounds were treated, he pulled up his clothes, put them on, and walked toward the woods. The secret guard handed the letter with both hands.

He opened his eyes and looked at it, and Yu Cong leaned over: "The prince had suspected that there was a spy in the army before. He didn't expect that the spy had such a high position. No wonder he lost every battle and lost a lot of Bai family's army."

Bai Mingyu frowned: "This matter is not that simple. If there is no one behind him, how can he play such a big game?"

"Then Your Majesty, what should we do?"

"Keep an eye on him." Bai Mingyu said.

He sent secret guards to escort the grain shipped out of the capital. He was worried that someone would attack the grain.

After this war, both sides rested and recuperated, as if they had agreed not to take action, and food was consumed faster than originally planned.

The original week's food was consumed in three days. In addition to meeting the needs of the army, they also provided relief to the victims in the city.

On this day, Yu came to deliver food to the disaster-stricken area. Shen Zhiyue saw that the amount had shrunk and asked, "Is there not enough food?"

Yu Cong pursed his lips. This matter was a military matter and it was not convenient to inform outsiders.

When Shen Zhiyue saw him like this, she knew it was true. After Yu Cong left, she took people to the mountains to see if there was anything that could satisfy her hunger.

She accidentally stepped on the air and fell down the slope. When Yu Qing saw it, he jumped down and held her arm.

"Little madam, are you okay?"

Shen Zhiyue moved her hands and feet, and she could still walk without any problem, but her waist hurt a little, and her eyes glanced at the ground unintentionally.

She squatted down, picked up the leaf and looked at it. It looked a bit like a potato leaf. She was really grateful to her parents who farmed. She had known whole grains since she was a child.

Shen Zhiyue dug into the soil and picked up a small fist-sized potato, which was full of potatoes. There were really potatoes here, and now they were saved.

Yu Qing had never seen this thing before: "Little madam, what is this?"

"Potato, this one is very filling. We are saved, dig in quickly."

There were a lot of potatoes growing in this area, and they collected two baskets full of potatoes. Yu Qing carried them with her to the military camp.

She ran to Bai Mingyu and hugged him: "Why don't you come to see me? I miss you so much."

She came to the military camp specially dressed as a man, and saw two grown men hugging each other from a distance, which attracted the attention of the soldiers.

Shen Zhiyue put her hand on his back, squeezing it from time to time, causing wounds on him, and couldn't help but frown.

Yu Cong felt pain when he saw it. The prince didn't say anything. He couldn't help but said: "My dear madam, the prince is injured. You pressed his wound."

Shen Zhiyue hurriedly let go of her hand, looking fierce: "Yu Cong, didn't you protect the prince well?"

Yu Cong opened his mouth, saw the warning look in the prince's eyes, and chose not to say anything. It was because he failed to protect the prince. It was clearly the prince who took the initiative to be punished, and he could not stop him at all.

Shen Zhiyue saw that Yu couldn't hold back a fart for a long time, so she pushed his tent and started to pull his clothes.
