The charming legitimate daughter is reborn, addicted to the abstinent prince's pampering

Nalan Army Camp.

Zhan Cangxue treated Meng Ying as dotingly as ever, and took even more meticulous care of her.

Meng Ying has had too little exercise recently. For her health, Zhan Cangxue accompanied her for a walk in the military camp.

When she got tired, he helped her and carried her all the way to the kitchen, letting her sit aside while he was busy in the kitchen, like a house cook.

His busy figure made Meng Ying feel soft and distressed.

What he cooked was what she liked to eat, and she said to him: "You don't have to take care of me in everything."

He kept moving his hands and said: "You are my wife and I am your husband. It is natural for a husband to take care of his wife."

Zhan Cangxue was always so good-tempered in front of Meng Ying. It was the same before and it is the same now. It has never changed.

He ordered her a bowl of noodles, dotted with green scallions and a fried egg. The noodles were in clear soup, but fragrant.

Two people were sitting on a small bench at the door of the kitchen.

Zhan Cangxue held a bowl and fed Meng Ying noodles.

Meng Ying resisted a little: "You don't have to be like this. I have hands and feet. I can hold the bowl and eat by myself."

Zhan Cangxue shook her head: "The bowl is very hot."

His natural concern made Meng Ying's eyes red.

"You all know that it hurts to care about me, don't you feel hot?"

Zhan Cangxue said with a smile: "I have rough skin and thick flesh, so it won't be hot."

His kindness to her made Meng Ying both sweet and sad.

Their stance is to actively become enemies in love.

She couldn't kill him when he wasn't prepared, and he couldn't even take her as a hostage for Nalan.

Both of them were in pain, but they enjoyed being around each other.

Meng Ying ate the noodles he put to her mouth one bite at a time.

The noodles were very fragrant, and she could even taste the taste of home and love.

Meng Ying's body felt warm after eating this steaming bowl of noodles.

Zhan Cangxue put the bowl back and walked side by side to the tent with Meng Ying.

But before she could reach the camp, Meng Ying noticed the red mountains of Taicang Pass.

She paused and looked carefully, only to realize that the red light was made of flames.

The fire was so strong that she could see the mountain fire even though the camp was ten miles away from Taicang Pass.

Meng Ying suddenly turned back to look at Zhan Cangxue, and said with trembling lips: "Did you let someone do it?"

Zhan Cangxue still smiled: "Yes, the two armies have spent too much time. It's time to make a break."

"Do you have to kill Helianjun?"

These words made the smile on Zhan Cangxue's face fade.

He stared at Meng Ying: "Qingqing, the words you sometimes say are really hurtful."

"It's not that I have to kill Helian Army, but if I don't kill Helian Army, Helian Army will kill me. The dispute between the two countries is not decided by me alone."

"Two years ago, the second prince Helianhuan and the legitimate daughter of the Gu family, Gu Wangshu, burned down the Nalan Army in Taiping City. Tens of thousands of the Nalan Army were killed in the sea of ​​​​fire. The blasted corpses were not damaged. Their methods were ruthless and ruthless. There is no way for Nalan Army to survive."

"Can I question the Helian Army as you said, and I have to kill the Nalan Army?"

"Meng Qingche, you are in the Cao camp and your heart is in the Han Dynasty. Aren't you relying on my feelings for you and the child in my belly?"

Zhan Cangxue spoke harshly to Meng Ying for the first time, but even so, his mood was calm, and he would not use rough methods against Meng Ying.

Meng Ying was left speechless. She took a deep look at Tai Cangguan, with strong worry in her eyes, but she said nothing more and turned around to leave.

Zhan Cangxue took a deep breath, stepped forward, picked up Meng Ying, and strode back to the tent.

The veins on his forehead were beating with anger, but he still paid attention to his propriety and gently put her on the bed.

"Go to sleep, everything will be over when you wake up."

He covered her with a quilt and left without looking back.

Meng Ying curled up in the quilt, tears streaming down her face.

It's over as soon as you wake up?

There are only two endings, either the Nalan Army led by Zhan Cangxue dies, or the Helian Army led by Xiao Shu dies.

Both of these endings were something she didn't want to see.

Is there no surefire solution?

Unless the two countries stop fighting, which is unlikely.

The grievances between Nalan Kingdom and Helian Kingdom are too deep.

The revenge for the second uncle Gu Chengfeng's loss of his legs, the revenge for Concubine Wen's use of a beauty trick to overthrow the Helian Kingdom, and the revenge for his death at the hands of Nalan's army.

Xiao Shu and His Highness the Second Highness annihilated Nalan Yin's 20-strong enemy in Taiping City. Yun Musheng and Chen Zui deceived Nalan Yin and destroyed the Fu family's enemy.

The hatred between the two sides was so deep that she could not prevent the two countries from fighting.

However, she couldn't just watch either Xiao Shu or Zhan Cangxue get hurt.

Meng Ying threw off the quilt and walked out of the tent quickly, but she didn't expect that there was someone guarding outside the tent.

When the two men saw Meng Ying, they coldly ordered: "Don't make it difficult for us."

Meng Ying was unmoved and wanted to force her way in. A cold light flashed in the eyes of the two of them, wanting to stab her.

But the two of them didn't dare to do this. No matter how disgusted they were, they still had to follow the general's instructions to ensure her safety.

But the methods are not gentle.

The two of them blocked Meng Ying with their arms. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get through.

She glanced at the red clouds on the horizon, which were the colors reflected by the mountain fires.

She turned around silently and returned to the camp, running around anxiously.

About half an hour later, Meng Ying heard the sounds of killing shouts, the collision of weapons, and the neighing of horses.

She walked out again, but was stopped again.

Meng Ying asked anxiously: "Is the Nalan Army fighting with the Helian Army?"

The gatekeeper ignored him at all. Their faces were serious and their eyes were alert.

"Let me out. As long as I'm here, Helian's army won't hurt Zhan Cangxue."

The two finally looked at Meng Ying and sneered at her.

"As a spy from Helian Kingdom, what qualifications do you have to say such a thing?"

"Thanks to our general for treating you so well, you are just like an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, and your conscience has been eaten by dogs."

"You..." Meng Ying's face turned red with embarrassment, but she still argued with reason.

"I have feelings for your general, and I won't let anything happen to him. Please trust me."

The two of them became increasingly impatient.

One person pushed Meng Ying hard on the shoulder, pulled out his saber, pointed it at Meng Ying, and roared: "Get out -"

Meng Ying was frightened by his fierce look and stepped back, not daring to move forward.

The fighting outside became more and more intense.

The Nalan Army led by Zhan Cangxue fought with the Helian Army led by He Lianhuan.

The shouting of death lasted for as long as a stick of incense, then slowly disappeared, and finally could no longer be heard.

But Meng Ying was still worried, pacing back and forth in the tent like an ant on a hot pot.

The situation outside was just as He Lianhuan had guessed. Helian's army was forced by Nalan's army and could only move towards the mountains thirty miles away.

The Nalan Army was determined to die and seemed to perish together with the Helian Army. It was so powerful and unstoppable that it suppressed the momentum of the Helian Army.

At this moment, He Lianhuan led He Lianjun to the mountain pass.

There were three mountain passes before them, which he and Gu Wangshu had just discussed not long ago.

According to the three-door probability problem, he needs to randomly calculate a road, and then eliminate the road blocked by the landslide. As long as he gives up the road he chose first and chooses another one, then there will be two-thirds The probability of choosing a path that is not ambushed by the Nalan Army.

He Lianhuan finished analyzing in his mind and was about to make a choice, but he paused again.

no!It's not up to him to choose.

He already has a preconceived consciousness, so he loses the randomness. When he makes a choice, his brain will analyze it involuntarily.

He Lianhuan thought of this and turned to look at He Lianjun behind him.

He Lianjun's eyes were all fixed on him, waiting for him to make a choice. Their eyes were full of trust.

He Lianhuan looked among the soldiers one by one, and finally his eyes fell on an ordinary-looking soldier.

"You, come out."

The soldier who was called was at a loss. He was just a nobody. He admired His Highness very much, but he had never had a chance to say a word to His Highness, and he was not appreciated.

He was flattered to be suddenly called upon by His Highness the Second Highness today.

The soldier did not dare to delay and hurriedly walked out of the team and walked quickly to He Lianhuan.

"If your Highness has any instructions, I will definitely die without hesitation."

He Lianhuan was very satisfied with his loyalty. He rode on his horse and said seriously:

"I do have something I want you to do. Do you see the three roads in front of you?"

The soldier nodded: "I saw it."

"Now, you randomly choose one of these three paths."

The soldier was even more puzzled. He didn't understand the purpose of His Highness's doing this and why he should entrust such an important matter to him.

"Your Highness, what if I choose the wrong one?" He was a little worried.

But He Lianhuan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, I'll let you choose."

The man looked at the three roads in front of him. He didn't have any big strategy. He was just a soldier who followed orders. On issues of life and death, he couldn't come up with any useful insights.

Since His Highness asked him to choose randomly, he would choose whichever one suits his eyes.

He raised his hand and pointed to the wider road on the far right.

"Your Highness, this road is the widest. I choose this one."

He Lianhuan looked at the road. As the soldier said, the width of this road was the widest among the three roads, and the weeds on both sides of the road showed traces of being trampled.

He Lianhuan waved his hand at him, and the soldier returned to the team again.

The Helian soldiers didn't know what Helian Huan was doing, but no one dared to ask how their minds could compare with His Highness's wisdom.

His Highness will not harm them, they just need to follow His Highness's arrangements.

He Lianhuan looked at the other two roads. The leftmost road was the same as the rightmost road. The weeds on both sides of the road also had traces of being trampled on. This proved that people often used these two roads.

It is precisely because people walk frequently that weeds do not hesitate to grow on the road.

It’s different when you look at the road in the middle.

The road is obviously narrower than the roads on both sides, and there are very few footprints on the road. The weeds are relatively lush, and there is even dust on the grass blades.

There are various signs that no one has passed through the middle road for a long time, which means that this road has been blocked and impassable, so it was abandoned.

First, eliminate the middle road, leaving only the two roads on the left and right.

According to probability theory, the probability that the soldier just chose the right path is one-third, and the probability of choosing the wrong path is two-thirds.

In this way, the soldier has a higher probability of making the wrong choice, so he has to change paths.

He Lianhuan thought of this and set his sights on the road on the far left.

The two roads looked almost the same, and it was impossible to tell from the appearance which road the Nalan Army had used to lay the trap.

Now it was time to test whether he would choose to believe in the luck of the soldier just now, or whether he would choose to believe in the probability science mentioned by Gu Wangshu.

As a person, he doesn't like to do things that are uncertain.

In the past, no matter what decision he made, he had to be [-]% sure.

But now, the 100% accuracy rate no longer exists, so he has to choose the side with a higher probability.

He Lianhuan believed in Gu Wangshu, so he chose Gu Wangshu.

He Lianhuan pointed to the road on the far left and said, "Take this road."

The choice he made made Helian Jun behind him extremely puzzled.

Since His Highness made the choice himself, why did he ask a soldier to choose just now?

They couldn't figure it out. Someone looked at the soldier just now, and a look of embarrassment flashed across his face, as if he was being slapped in the face.

He Lianhuan's mind was so delicate that he was able to realize that his actions just now would give the soldier a strange look.

It was impossible for him to let the other party talk about others' unbridled ridicule in the military camp just because he was unknown.

He Lianhuan explained the problem of probability to them. Of course, the soldiers couldn't understand it at all, but He Lianhuan's main purpose was not to make them understand, but to tell them that the soldier's choice just now meant to him Very important.

His explanation made other people no longer laugh at the soldier, and everyone became more united.

There are very few generals who would consider the mood of a small soldier, and their Second Highness is one of the very few.

They are lucky to have such a leader.

The soldiers respected He Lianhuan even more, and their morale became higher and higher.

He Lianhuan led the soldiers into the mountain along the mountain road, and everything was very unexpected all the way.

But the naked eye is deceptive, and it is difficult to find hidden people, and because of the effect of light, hidden people can easily find them.

Regardless of whether the Nalan Army set up an ambush on this road, He Lianhuan felt that they could not relax their vigilance.

But how can it play a better reconnaissance and defense role?

After much deliberation, He Lianhuan could only send a group of scouts to explore the front, while their large troops slowly moved forward in the rear.

But this is not enough. If the scouts make any mistakes, they will still be put in danger.

You have to think of a plan.

As He Lianhuan led his troops forward, his brain kept spinning.

Suddenly, he thought of the mirror.

Mirrors can reflect things. If you place the mirror low, you can see high objects in the mirror.

But during the march, it was impossible for them to carry mirrors.

He Lianhuan's reaction time was extremely fast. What could replace the mirror?

He suddenly thought of water again.

He Lianhuan quickly tightened the reins of his horse, asked someone to bring him a bowl, and then poured water into the bowl.

In this way, while riding the horse, he kept observing the scene in the water.

The reflection of the two mountains in the water, although blurry, gives the enemy nowhere to hide.

There were scouts in front and He Lianhuan behind him who used the reflection of the water to observe the enemy. With this double insurance, Helian's army could finally move forward boldly and confidently.

Along the way, no accidents happened. They safely entered the depths of the mountain, found a hiding spot, and began to rest.

After repairing, the soldiers replenished their strength and began to climb over the mountains and ridges under the leadership of He Lianhuan, heading towards the place where the Nalan Army set up an ambush.

The hard work paid off, and the Helian Army found the ambush of the Nalan Army, exactly on the road chosen by the soldier.

The Nalan army hid behind trees and rocks and prepared for battle.

However, what they did not expect was that He Lianhuan led his men to attack from behind, catching them off guard.

However, the Nalan Army had rich combat experience and quickly reacted and started fighting with the Helian Army.

But after calling back and forth, He Lianhuan suddenly discovered a problem. He didn't see Zhan Cangxue.

Didn't Zhan Cangxue ambush here?

As the commander-in-chief, if he is not here, it proves that this place is not his main target.

Thinking of this, He Lianhuan couldn't help but feel excited.

Could it be that this place is just to confuse them?Zhan Cangxue pushed him away, did he have any other plans?

His intention is...Taicangguan?

He Lianhuan was so secretive that he fell into Zhan Cangxue's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

The opponent first set fire to the mountain and forced Helian's army to leave the city to respond to the enemy.

Then he led most of the Helian Army to a pre-arranged ambush location, not only to destroy the Helian Army, but also to delay time, so that Zhan Cangxue could lead another part of the Nalan Army to attack Taicang Pass.

The mountain fire will not be extinguished for a while, and will even intensify. Taicang Pass is invaded by the heat wave between the two mountains, but the Helian Army still has to defend the city under the premise of enduring the scorching heat. The difficulty is greatly increased. It is Nalan The best time for the army to capture Taicang Pass.

This was Zhan Cangxue's plan, link by link, trapping him all in.

For the first time, He Lianhuan encountered an enemy that could catch him off guard. He gritted his teeth and planned to lead his troops back to the city. However, the Nalan army refused to let them go. It seemed that they wanted to kill all He Lian's troops here.

He Lianhuan was extremely angry and led his troops to fight against Nalan's army.

The shouts of killing shook the sky, blood flowed into rivers, and soldiers on both sides continued to fall.

He Lianhuan couldn't get away for a while. Only by wiping out all Nalan's troops could he lead his troops back to the city.

At this moment, Taicangguan is being attacked by the Nalan Army.

Before the mountain fire, it would have been a fantasy for the Nalan Army to capture Taicang Pass.

But it's different now.

He Lianhuan had taken away part of the guards at Taicang Pass. Although the remaining troops had been sticking to their posts, they were sweating like rain from the flames, and their whole bodies were red and painful.

This is even more uncomfortable than standing under the 40-degree sun in midsummer.

The Helian Army not only had to endure the burning flames, but also had to fight against the Nalan Army outside the city. They were attacked from both sides.

The hotter you are, the less you can calm down, and the less calm you are, the more impatient you are. It is simply a vicious cycle.

He Lianjun struggled to hold on for a whole day, and finally he couldn't hold on any longer.

Many people fainted due to inhaling a large amount of smoke from wildfires. Those who did not faint were dehydrated from sweating too much and began to show signs of panic and shortness of breath. They failed to replenish water in time, and their symptoms were not relieved. Finally he collapsed to the ground and lost the ability to fight.

The Helian troops on the tower fell one after another.

The Nalan Army's offensive under the city became more and more fierce. They directly set up a climbing ladder, climbed from outside the city to the city wall, and started fighting with the Helian Army.

The Helian army was hungry and tired, and was completely unable to resist the Nalan army, and finally the city gate was lost.

The city gate was opened, and Zhan Cangxue led Nalan's army into the city.

There are no ordinary people in Taicangguan. It is at the junction of the two countries and wars often occur. It is not suitable for ordinary people to live.

Zhan Cangxue ordered loudly: "Those who surrender will be spared death——"

But the Helian Army are all iron-blooded men, and no one is willing to surrender to the Nalan Army, even if they are exhausted, they have to fight until the end.

Zhan Cangxue admired their courage, but he would never show mercy to his enemies.

He just kept killing and killing, but he didn't find Gu Wangshu.

Zhan Cangxue sneered.

Do you think there is nothing he can do if he hides?

He wanted to see how long she could hide.

Zhan Cangxue gave an order to tie up all the defeated Helian troops and escort them to the city tower.

Then he shouted into the city:

"Gu Wangshu, listen, Taicang Pass has been lost, and Helian's army has become a prisoner. If you show up and surrender, I can spare their lives. If you don't come out, don't blame me for being ruthless."

This sound was mixed with the inside and echoed over Taicang Pass.

Gu Wangshu, who was hiding in the dark, heard Zhan Cangxue's threat and saw He Lianjun being held hostage on the tower.

She gritted her teeth and stared at the tower.

Unexpectedly, Taicang Pass was lost so quickly.

Zhan Cangxue suddenly appeared in Taicangguan, so what happened to His Highness?

Gu Wangshu was confused and didn't know what to do.

Zhan Cangxue shouted three times in a row without getting a reply from Gu Wangshu. He sneered, "Why don't you come out?"He had his own way of forcing her out.

I saw him grabbing a Helian soldier, pushing him to the edge of the tower, and shouted again:

"I will count to three. If you don't show up, I will push him off the tower and beat him to death."

When Gu Wangshu heard this, his whole heart trembled.

When soldiers die on the battlefield, they sacrifice their lives for the country, and being killed as hostages are two different things.

The killing of the hostages was a great insult and provocation to Helianguo.

The Helian soldier looked fearless.

"Kill if you want. The soldiers of Helian Kingdom are never cowards."

"Yes - if you want to kill, then kill -"

Zhan Cangxue's eyes flashed with bloodlust.

"1--"

Gu Wangshu hesitated.

"2--"

Gu Wangshu's heart beat faster and she took a step forward involuntarily, but she thought that if she fell into the enemy's hands, it would bring many unavoidable consequences to He Lianhuan. She would become his weakness, so she could not be caught.

Thinking of this, Gu Wangshu still didn't show up.

"3--"

When the last sound fell, Zhan Cangxue threw the soldier from the tower without hesitation.

The tower of Taicangguan is ten feet high, which is equivalent to the height of a ten-story building.

If you fall from such a high place, you will definitely die.

There was a loud "bang", and the soldier hit the ground hard. All his internal organs and bones were shattered, and his seven orifices were bleeding. He died on the spot.

Gu Wangshu closed his eyes fiercely.

Zhan Cangxue actually treated the prisoners so cruelly.

Gu Wangshu's anger was on the verge of exploding, her heart seemed to be pinched hard by a pair of big hands, and her face turned pale in pain.

Two thoughts kept circulating in her mind.

go out?

stay home?

She couldn't make up her mind at all.

While Gu Wangshu was hesitating, Zhan Cangxue captured another prisoner.

"Can't you come out?"

Gu Wangshu's hands were clenched into fists, and her nails dug into her flesh, but she didn't feel anything at all. Her eyes were fixed on Zhan Cangxue, wishing to tear him into pieces.

"Still not coming out? It seems you really don't care about Helianjun's life or death."

The words fell, followed by a "bang".

The second person was pushed out by Zhan Cangxue in the same way and died unexpectedly.

Then, he grabbed another person.

"You have to protect the Helian Kingdom regardless of your own life and death. Who can protect you when you are in danger?"

"Your generals only care about their own life and death. Is it really worth fighting for them?"

He wanted to arouse He Lianjun's disappointment in Gu Wangshu and He Lianhuan, but He Lianjun was all loyal and patriotic, and had great trust in Gu Wangshu and He Lianhuan. How could he instigate this with just a few words.

The soldier caught by Zhan Cangxue sneered.

"Kill or chop you as you please. If we surrender, we won't be worthy of human beings."

"You are so brazen even when you are about to die. Since you want to die so much, I will help you." As he said that, he pushed the Helian soldiers down hard.

Zhan Cangxue was impressed by He Lianjun's backbone. The more He Lianjun was not afraid of death, the more he wanted to kill them.

He believed that Gu Wangshu must be watching from the dark.

He pushed Helianjun off the tower one by one and fell to death. If Gu Wangshu didn't come forward, he would not save him. Even if she could escape smoothly this time, the news of today's incident would be very harmful to her and General Gu's mansion. A blow will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among everyone.

When Zhan Cangxue thought of this, he showed no mercy.

Under the tower of Taicangguan, there were constant banging sounds.

After a while, the dead bodies piled up under the city, and the blood stained the land red.

Gu Wangshu's eyes turned red because of Zhan Cangxue's cruelty.

The killing lasted as long as a cup of tea before it ended.

The Helian army on the tower was only half of its original size.

Zhan Cangxue shouted again: "Gu Wangshu, how do you feel watching your soldiers die in front of your eyes in secret? I never thought that as a member of the Gu family, you could be so cruel. No wonder you can Being able to guard Taicang Pass by virtue of being a woman, this ruthlessness is just as fierce as your second uncle."

He mocked Gu Wangshu, as if he felt that there was no point in continuing to waste like this. With an order, Nalan's army pinned Helian's army on the tower.

Zhan Cangxue shouted:

"Gu Wangshu, I will give you one last chance. If you don't show up this time, I will kill all the remaining Helian troops at once."

"You have to think clearly, is your life more important, or the lives of thousands of Helian soldiers?"

"I'm still counting to three. If you don't show up after three times, just wait for them to collect the body."

"1--"

"2--"

"3--"

After three calls, Zhan Cangxue failed to see Gu Wangshu appear, and a look of disappointment flashed across his face.

This woman is really cruel.

What he hated most was cruel people like Gu Wangshu.

Zhan Cangxue snorted: "Don't blame me, general. After you die, you will turn into ghosts and look for Gu Wangshu. It was her cold eyes that led to your death."

After saying that, he was about to give the order to push all the Helian troops down from the tower.

But at this critical moment, Gu Wangshu walked out of the darkness.

The firelight shone on her body, giving her a golden glow.

When Zhan Cangxue saw her, a smile appeared on his lips as if his plan had succeeded.

"Tsk, tsk, you're finally willing to show up, don't you think it's too late? What were you doing earlier?"

"If you had shown up when I first gave you a chance, the Helian Army would not have known that so many people died. For you alone, so many soldiers died. Do you think your life is so valuable?"

Zhan Cangxue's sarcasm had no effect on Gu Wangshu.

Gu Wangshu, with a cold face, stood under the city and looked up at Zhan Cangxue.

"I hope you keep your promise."

Zhan Cangxue raised his eyebrows. This woman was really calm. He wanted to destroy her calmness more and more.

"Let him go? Of course."

"However, we need to wait until I catch you."

He walked slowly down from the tower and walked to Gu Wangshu.

The distance was so close that both sides could clearly see their expressions.

Gu Wangshu was as cold as ice, while Zhan Cangxue had a tough attitude.

He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Gu Wangshu.

"do you know it?"

This note was obtained from the homing pigeon that was shot.

Gu Wangshu gritted his teeth when he saw the pinyin on it. It was written by Meng Ying.

Zhan Cangxue sneered: "You guys are really capable. You actually made arrangements in advance to let Meng Qingche implement a honey trap on me."

"Guess, did her honey trap succeed?"

Zhan Cangxue hid all her emotions perfectly, and nothing could be seen from the outside.

Gu Wangshu couldn't help but start to worry about Meng Ying.

"What on earth are you doing to her?"

"Hmph, she didn't do anything. She wants to help Helian Kingdom subvert our Nalan Kingdom so much. How can I let her go so easily?"

"I burned her maid to death first, you should have seen it."

"I have good news for you. She is pregnant. Do you think I will leave the evil seed in her belly?"

Gu Wangshu's pupils shrank.

Meng Ying is pregnant?Could that child belong to her and Zhan Cangxue?

Zhan Cangxue smiled evilly: "Yes, she is mine. I will raise her until she is white and fat. When the child takes shape, I will feed her a bowl of abortion pills and let her watch her child leave her." , what do you think of this idea?"

"You..." Gu Wangshu was furious and raised his hand to hit him.

But before she could knock her hand down, she was grabbed by Zhan Cangxue. His hand was surprisingly strong, as if he wanted to crush Gu Wangshu's wrist.

"When you deceived me, you should have thought that I would not let it go."

"If you dare to hurt her, I will never let you go."

"Haha." Zhan Cangxue smiled unscrupulously.

"Only incompetent people would say such things. How can you not let me go?"

Gu Wangshu was speechless, worried about Meng Ying's safety.

She forced herself to calm down and no longer dwell on Meng Ying's problems.

"You just said that as soon as I show up, our soldiers will be released. It's time for you to fulfill your promise."

Zhan Cangxue burst out laughing.

"I fulfill my promise? Are you too naive? No, I should say you are too stupid."

"When I shouted for the first time, I really meant it sincerely. As long as you were willing to show up, I would definitely let him go. But you didn't show up. This means that you don't care about my promise at all. You don't even care about He." Lian Jun takes them seriously, so why should I take their lives seriously?"

"Have you ever heard the saying that you don't wait until you are too late? You missed the time when I wanted to fulfill my promise, so I have no obligation to wait for you to figure it out."

Zhan Cangxue held Gu Wangshu tightly with one hand, and pinched her chin with the other hand, forcing her to look at the tower.

"I want you to watch them all die in front of you. Remember, their deaths were all caused by you."

Gu Wangshu was standing five feet away from the city gate. If she pushed all the Helian soldiers down from the city tower, it would be equivalent to them dying at her feet. What a terrifying scene it would be.

Gu Wangshu wanted to speak, but his chin was held by him and he couldn't speak at all. He wanted to resist, but he couldn't.

The feeling of helplessness at this moment was just like the time in the previous life when she was beaten to death by Concubine Wen's orders in the imperial garden, and fear struck her heart.

Just as Zhan Cangxue was about to issue an order, at this critical moment, a sharp female voice suddenly came.

That voice was too familiar to Gu Wangshu. It was the voice of Meng Ying who had grown up with her.

She looked toward the sound and saw Meng Ying riding a horse through the open city gate.

The horse ran very fast and was close in the blink of an eye.

She turned over and dismounted, frowning and looking at Zhan Cangxue.

When Zhan Cangxue saw Meng Ying, his whole aura became very depressed. However, when he discovered the blood red on Meng Ying's shoulder, he couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Why are you here? How did you get your shoulder?"

Meng Ying waited and waited in the camp, but after waiting for a full day, Zhan Cangxue did not come back.

She was extremely anxious and wanted to leave the camp, but she kept being blocked.

Meng Ying had no other choice but to stab herself in the shoulder with a knife. When the two guards saw her being cruel to her, they were so frightened that they no longer dared to stop her.

This is the reason why Meng Ying injured her shoulder.

"Zhan Cangxue, let Xiao Shu go." She begged with all her eyes.

Zhan Cangxue looked sarcastic.

"Meng Qingche, have you forgotten whose wife you are? Whose seed are you carrying in your belly?"

Meng Ying had a look of pain on her face. She knew she shouldn't hurt Zhan Cangxue. He was so kind to her, but she was so cruel.

But she had no choice. Helian was her hometown, Xiaoshu was her relative, and the Gu family had nurtured her.

"Zhan Cangxue, how about we leave together? We don't care how Helian Kingdom and Nalan Kingdom fight. We will go to a place where no one knows us."

"Meng Qingche, don't you think what you said is ridiculous?"

Zhan Cangxue pointed to the piles of dead bodies under the city wall.

"These are the people I pushed down the tower to death in order to force Gu Wangshu out. Do you think I can still escape unscathed? Will the living Helian soldiers on the tower let me go? Gu Wangshu will let me go." Me? Will He Lianhuan let me go?"

"Meng Qingche, don't be stupid. You don't even believe what you say. Do you think I will believe it? Which of your actions can prove that you love me more than your country? You actually want me to Death, I just refuse to admit it."

Meng Ying shook her head vigorously, no, she never wanted to kill Zhan Cangxue, she just didn't want to watch him kill the people of Helian country.

Meng Ying's eyes fell on the dead body of He Lianjun under the tower, and her body trembled more and more.

She looked at Gu Wangshu, her eyes full of prayer.

Gu Wangshu saw the coldness in her eyes. Meng Ying hoped that she could let Zhan Cangxue go, but she couldn't let He Lianjun go.

Gu Wangshu hesitated, unable to face Meng Ying, and slowly lowered his eyes.

Zhan Cangxue comforted with a bitter smile: "Qingqing, you only have two choices, either stand firmly on my side, or help Gu Wangshu deal with me. There is no third option."

Meng Ying's eyes suddenly turned red.

Why should she make such a choice?

She wanted to fight Cangxue, but also didn't want anything to happen to Xiao Shu, so she didn't want to make a choice.

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the sound of horse hoofbeats was heard outside the city gate. The sound was shocking, and they were running madly from a distance. They were so fast that they arrived in the blink of an eye.

The person who came was none other than He Lianhuan. He led the Helian army to kill all the Nalan army. He returned to the city without stopping. What he saw was the city gate wide open and Zhan Cangxue holding Gu Wangshu hostage.

Just as he was about to lead his troops into the city to rescue Gu Wangshu, he heard Zhan Cangxue shouting emotionally:

"He Lianhuan, if you dare to come close, I will kill her immediately."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out the dagger from his waist and put it on Gu Wangshu's neck.

He Lianhuan no longer dared to act rashly and could only lead the soldiers to stand outside the city gate.

Meng Ying was caught between the two sides, with a splitting headache and the hot air almost melting her.

Her eyes kept swinging between Zhan Cangxue and Gu Wangshu, and her thin body was crumbling.

Her heartbroken and helpless look fell in Zhan Cangxue's eyes, and his heart ached like a needle pricking her.

But now, he can no longer compromise.

All previous efforts in this compromise will be wasted. Nalan's army will die, he will die, and Nalan's country will perish.

He held Gu Wangshu hostage and forced He Lianhuan: "Take your people and retreat, or I will let my people push all Helian's troops on the tower to the bottom of the city."

He Lianhuan glanced towards the tower and had no intention of retreating.

Zhan Cangxue laughed loudly: "He Lianhuan, you are so cruel, you don't even care about the life and death of your own people. What about her?"

The knife in his hand moved forward a little, and the sharp blade cut a bloody mark on Gu Wangshu's fair neck.

"Back off or not?"

The blood marks on Gu Wangshu's neck stung He Lianhuan's eyes. His eyes were cold and ruthless and wanted to kill, but Gu Wangshu was in Zhan Cangxue's hands, so he had to compromise.

He led his troops back ten feet, but Zhan Cangxue was not satisfied.

"Don't play tricks on me. I don't want to say it a second time. Keep going back."

He Lianhuan gritted his teeth and was about to continue to retreat when Meng Ying suddenly screamed.

"enough!"

"Zhan Cangxue, do you have to do this?"

Meng Ying's words made Zhan Cangxue extremely hurt.

"It's not that I have to do this, it's that the two countries have to fight. I am the general of the Nalan Kingdom. I have no choice. Do you want me to surrender to the enemy and treason? Make me a sinner of the Nalan Kingdom and make me infamy forever?"

"No, that's not what I meant." Meng Ying kept shaking her head, her tears being shaken off as she shook her head.

Zhan Cangxue looked tired.

"Stop making excuses. Don't you think it's too cruel to treat me? Just because I love you, you take it for granted that I have to let you do everything, right?"

"The love between a man and a woman, the righteousness of the family and the country, what do you think I should choose?"

"Is it because you alone have fulfilled the expectations of everyone in Nalan Kingdom, or is it because of the country, the family, and the millions of people in Nalan that I should give up on you?"

"Meng Qingche, it's harder for me to choose than it is for you. If you think about it from my perspective, you won't force me to choose you again and again."

Meng Ying was struck speechless by his words, as if she had been slapped hard, leaving her selfishness nowhere to hide.

But people are selfish. She hates Nalan Kingdom, so naturally she cannot empathize with the people of Nalan Kingdom.

She didn't care whether the people of Nalan Kingdom lived or died, whether they lived in misery or not.

She just wants Xiao Shu to live, she just wants Helian Kingdom to continue to grow, and she also hopes that she and Zhan Cangxue can have a good ending.

At this point, she had to make a choice, and she chose to sacrifice herself in exchange for the peace of Helian Country.

Meng Ying made a plan, raised her hand and pointed the knife at Zhan Cangxue, threatening: "Let go of Xiao Shu."

Zhan Cangxue was obviously stunned.

He never imagined that one day the woman he loved would point a knife at him.

"You're going to kill me?"

"I don't want to. I just don't want you to hurt Xiao Shu. Can you let Xiao Shu go?"

"Ha - you disappoint me so much." Zhan Cangxue ignored it and continued to hold Gu Wangshu and move forward.

Meng Ying kept retreating, and she shouted: "Don't force me anymore, Zhan Cangxue, don't force me anymore -"

"Qingqing, you've always been the one forcing me."

Meng Ying was silent.

Yes, it was she who had been forcing him, it was she who wanted to turn him into Nalan's sinner, it was she who was unreasonable and unreasonable.

However, she just wanted to be selfish this time, just this time.

Meng Ying flipped her wrist and the knife was turned to her own neck.

"If you don't let Xiao Shu go, I can only die in front of you."

Zhan Cangxue's eyes instantly turned red.

"Meng Qingche, you know how to handle me, you really know how to handle me."

Meng Ying didn't want to worry about this anymore. Whether she was selfish or shameless, she was willing to do anything as long as Xiao Shu was safe.

She almost killed Xiao Shu once, but this time, she must save her.

"Let it go!" Her eyes were extremely determined. As she spoke, the knife had cut the skin on her neck, and blood flowed out instantly, dyeing her clothes bright red.

Zhan Cangxue's breathing hurt.

"You don't even care about the child in your belly?"

Meng Ying said nothing and continued to push the knife towards her neck.

"Okay, okay, you are so cruel. What I regret most in my life is meeting you."

Zhan Cangxue pushed Gu Wangshu away.

Meng Ying breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to Gu Wangshu: "Xiao Shu, run quickly."

Gu Wangshu took a deep look at Meng Ying and ran towards He Lianhuan dragging his tired body.

The heat wave blew her hair, and the sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded in her ears.

The Helian army behind He Lianhuan had already cocked their bows and arrows. The moment Gu Wangshu ran over, the arrows were shot out.
