Chapter 884
This battle has been fought back and forth for a full year.
Because of this, the prestige of General Huwei, Yan Ge, is even more frightening than the prestige of Emperor Yuan Jing.
In the last battle, the last city defended by the enemy was breached. Yange led the crowd straight in. He wanted to capture the opponent's king alive, but he didn't expect the opponent to resist stubbornly. A fire surrounded Yange and his party in the city. In the main hall of the palace.
Pioneer immediately reported the situation in the enemy city to Emperor Yuan Jing.
Emperor Yuan Jing's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't think much about it. Regardless of everyone's objections, he personally brought someone to meet her.
Before entering the city gate, she saw a general under her hand rushing towards him like black charcoal, and said in a hoarse voice, "Your Majesty, the rebels in the city have been cleaned up, but the general has not fell."
Emperor Yuan Jing thought he heard it wrong, and asked him, "What did you say?"
The man prostrated and knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, our general is gone. The fire in the city is still going on. There is very little water, so the fire cannot be suppressed. The general rushed into the fire and has not yet come out."
Emperor Yuan Jing tightly squeezed the reins of the horse, he heard his own voice and shouted: "What are you doing in a daze, if you don't put out the fire, save her."
After a pause, he added, "Whoever can rescue her will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold."
There are limited water wells in the city, and the fire burned for two days and two nights before finally some sparks were left.
The entire palace was burned to ruins.
After the enemy king was found, he still breathed a sigh of relief, but Emperor Yuan Jing ordered the man to be thrown into the fire again and burned to death.
Still perplexed, he asked for the corpse to be hung on the city wall for public display.
I have been looking for her for half a month.
Almost the whole city was turned upside down, and no one who saw her was found, but one suspected of her body was found.
She was holding the sword he gave her, and she was burned into a charcoal-like existence, and she could only recognize her identity by the sword.
They all said she was dead.
Emperor Yuan Jing didn't believe it.
He didn't believe it at all.
Instead of burying her body on the spot, he summoned the imperial physician to conduct an autopsy.
It can only be determined that it is the body of a woman.
When they heard that it was a woman, everyone had hope again, thinking that their General Huwei was still alive.
Only Emperor Yuan Jing stared fixedly at the charred corpse.
She said that she would give him her military exploits as a dowry.
The night before the siege, the two were still arguing endlessly.
He didn't want her to go to the front line again, but she had to go.
Because of this, he was awkward and didn't hold her in his arms at night.
She hugged his shoulders and begged, she said that she was not an ordinary woman, she wanted to give the best dowry to the man she liked.
In the end, he couldn't beat her.
I always thought that I would indulge her for the last time.
Unexpectedly, this is really the last time.
Those words seemed to be still in front of his eyes, but she was already a coke in front of him.
If I had known earlier, I would have known that no matter what she thought, he should have detained her.
I regret it.
Obviously he won the battle, and the world will be settled tomorrow. From then on, this is his world alone.
But he was not half happy.
Before he returned to Beijing, he had already named her King of Chu.
The journey was so muddled that Emperor Yuan Jing didn't know how he returned to Beijing.
Her voice and smile kept repeating in my mind.
The sword he gave her was refitted at his waist.
In the middle of the night, I held it in my hand and rubbed it repeatedly.
Occasionally, I would sit up in shock and shout "Chu Chu" in a daze.
The room was empty, he was the only one in the bed, and no one responded.
