Chapter 288: The wrath of Emperor Yan, the soldiers return to the east!
Great Libei.
A carriage drove in slowly, and the driver was an old man. Looking at the dilapidated situation in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Sir, we're coming soon!"
"I don't know why my father suddenly summoned me here."
"Go directly to this place!"
Under Ning Rulai's guidance, the carriage stopped smoothly in front of a small courtyard with ancient charm. Ning Rulai stepped forward and knocked on the door, and saw a woman with a delicate face.
"Who are you?"
When Ning Rulai saw the woman's face, she couldn't help but look stunned, but saw the woman step forward and bow respectfully.
"See you young master!"
"Forehead!"
Ning Rulai was a little confused. She thought she was the beauty hidden in her father's golden house, but she didn't expect that she was actually a maidservant, and she was so beautiful!
This time his father suddenly summoned him to go abroad without explaining the reason and purpose.
Ning Rulai followed the woman into the small courtyard with doubts, and saw a middle-aged man sitting leisurely in the courtyard, his expression full of sadness.
"Father!"
Ning Rulai called out in surprise and stepped forward to kneel down. Ning Taisui nodded with a smile, a look of shame in his eyes, coughed lightly and said, "Get up!"
"Third Master!"
A voice sounded behind him, and an old man walked out of the room carrying a medicine box and said with a deep expression: "I have tried my best, but it's a pity..."
"Young Master Ling's legs may not be saved."
"Although I saved my life, from now on, I'm afraid I won't be able to restrain myself and will have to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair!"
Ning Taisui's expression was calm and he nodded slightly to show his gratitude. However, Ning Rulai looked suspicious and looked at his father.
"Let's go in and have a look!"
"Um!"
Ning Rulai suppressed the suspicion in her heart and walked into the bedroom in the main hall. After seeing the figure lying quietly on the bed, she couldn't help but look startled: "Brother Prince Sheng?"
"Father, he...is not..."
"When I arrived, I only had one breath left to hold on."
"Why does it become like this..."
Ning Rulai looked at the pale figure on the bed with closed eyes, looking a little sad. If Brother Wang woke up and found him like this, would he be able to bear it?
The peerless military commander who once intimidated one side and crushed the heroes from all over with his sword turned into a disabled person relying on a wheelchair for the rest of his life?
"well!"
"Time is destiny!"
"It's a blessing to be able to save a life."
Ning Taisui shook his head slightly, his expression a little melancholy. In order to save his nephew, he paid a high price!
"Father, did you call me?"
"You stay here to take care of King Sheng, and take him back to the capital after he recovers from his injuries!"
"Um!"
"Now that the situation in the Western Region has been decided, King Yong's army is about to regroup. After you return to the capital, you must not be involved in the fight for the heir."
"Remember, I, the Prince of Qin's Palace, are not allowed to get involved in any power struggle in the court!"
"Yes, father!"
Ning Rulai nodded seriously, but heard Ning Taisui speak again: "I still have some unfinished business outside, so I will leave all matters in Beijing to you."
"good!"
…
Da Yan.
Bauhinia City.
Imperial Palace.
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the Yanlong Guard from the east. Changqing Marquis has been defeated!"
"Can you say that again!"
Emperor Yan's eyes were like two sharp swords, looking straight at the general in front of him. The power coming towards him made him dare not speak loudly.
"Changqing Hou was defeated at Xuanjian Pass!"
"When he arrived with his army, Xuanjian Pass had been recaptured by Dayu!"
"The Eastern Territory... was completely defeated!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yan took a deep breath, tried his best to keep his expression calm, and said in a deep voice: "Fight Li with all your strength, within three months, I will make Da Li a subsidiary of my Da Yan Kingdom!"
"promise!"
"Is Yunxi back?"
"Let him come to see me!"
"Your Majesty, General Yunxi is still waiting outside the palace!"
"Xuan!"
Emperor Yan's eyes looked towards the outside of the palace, with a hint of concentration in his expression. Naturally, he had no doubt about Yunxi's strength.
Ranked second on the list of famous generals, but still defeated!
Not long after, two figures walked in with long strides and bowed respectfully.
"Yunxi, meet your Majesty!"
"Yushang, see your majesty!"
"waste!"
Emperor Yan looked directly at the two of them and spoke in a very calm tone, but the two of them felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, kneeling on the ground and not daring to speak.
"Tell me, how did you lose?"
"Your Majesty, when the general arrived with his army, Xuanjian Pass had already been lost!"
"So, you abandoned the pass and fled, taking the initiative to lead the army to withdraw from Xuanjian Pass?"
Emperor Yan stood up and walked step by step in front of Yu Shang, his expression suddenly turned playful.
"How many soldiers and horses did you bring back?"
"Back to Your Majesty, there are only a few thousand remnants of the half-million army left!"
"Oh..." Emperor Yan suddenly kicked Yu Shang to the ground: "My army of 500,000 is dead, so why are you coming back?"
"Someone is coming!"
"exist!"
"Drag Yu Shang out for me to behead!"
"His Majesty!"
Yu Shang's expression remained unchanged, but Yun Xi on the side said hurriedly: "Yu's army is brave and brave, and they also set up layers of ambushes. This battle is not the fault of General Yu Shang. Please have mercy, Your Majesty!"
"snort!"
Emperor Yan suddenly flicked his sleeves and said calmly: "I will give you a chance. Go to the southern battlefield. If you are defeated again, come and see me!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
…
Dayu.
Today's King Yu's city is decorated with colorful decorations, lanterns line the streets, and gongs and drums sound!
"A great victory in the Western Region, destroying the 500,000-strong army of Da Yan Kingdom in one battle!"
"Hahaha, the imperial army is in charge."
"Very good!"
Countless people rushed towards the west city gate, with unconcealed joy in their expressions. Ning Fan was riding a tall horse, accompanied by Zhao Changying and others. The soldiers behind him also held their chests high, raised their heads, and strode forward!
"Long live Dayu!"
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
Fanatic cheers resounded throughout the street. The third prince, Ning An, was ordered to lead the civil and military officials to greet him outside the city gate. When he saw Ning Fan and his entourage, he quickly stepped forward!
"Ning'an has obeyed the decree and led all the civil and military officials to welcome brother Yong Wang and the soldiers of the Western Region in triumph!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Ning Fan stepped forward, and together with Ji Sui and others, bowed respectfully in the direction of the palace, then looked at the princes and civil and military ministers in front of him: "Thank you for coming out of the city to welcome me!"
"Haha, I congratulate His Highness on your triumph!"
"This battle demonstrated the majesty of my Dayu. I also heard that an unknown general defeated the second best general in the world!"
"I am so strong, Dayu!"
Ning Fan smiled slightly and glanced at the princes. The third child's face was filled with an inexplicable smile, and he looked at Ning Fan with a somewhat solemn look.
Ning Shu looked slightly uncomfortable, a little jealous, and a little gloomy.
Ning Xuan, the fifth child, had a very pure look on his face. When he saw Ning Fan looking towards him, he nodded with a smile: "Congratulations, second brother, for another great victory, which strengthens the prestige of my country, Dayu!"
"Fifth brother is too praised, it is all the credit of the soldiers!"
"Hahaha, second brother, there is no need to be humble. You all contributed to this battle!"
There was a pure smile on Lao Liu's face, like a simple and honest boy without any scheming.
As for Lao Qi, Ning Fan automatically ignored it without even thinking about it. This idiot never knew how to hide his feelings.
