Fragrant willow catkins

Chapter 143 Summation

When they woke up and saw each other, they asked each other if they were okay, which made Mo Sheng and Li Hao even more embarrassed...

Li Hao coughed twice, and the two people on the bed finally noticed them.

Li Hao: "Your Majesty, Dongling seeks peace."

Li Ze was slightly surprised, "Did you attack his palace yesterday?" Otherwise, how could he compromise and seek peace so easily.

Li Hao: "No, the eldest prince of Dongling was inexplicably shot dead by an arrow in the military camp last night. The morale of the Dongling army was broken, and our army captured the Dongling military camp and several surrounding cities in one fell swoop."

arrow……

Li Ze looked at Ningxu, who pretended not to know and looked around.

Ningxu: "Hey, your tent is nicely decorated."

Li Ze had no choice but to get out of bed and discuss with Li Hao outside the tent.

As soon as the two of them left, Mo Sheng ran to Ningxu's bed and sat down. "You are so awesome."

Ningxu: "What's so great?"

Mo Sheng: "I heard about it all the way here. You won two battles in one night. Your title of goddess is well-deserved!"

Ningxu's face turned into one of worry and helplessness, "Don't mention it..."

Mo Sheng hadn't seen her with this expression for a long time, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"

Ningxu: "You don't know, if I hadn't come this time, they would have died there."

Mo Sheng: "What's going on?"

Ningxu: "They were attacked in the valley, determined to die, and were trapped for three days. Then they were exhausted and attacked by the enemy. Their bodies were all corroded by sulfuric acid."

"Sulfuric acid?!" Mo Sheng was shocked. She had read so many history books on Yonghe Continent and confirmed that no one here would use chemical substances to make lethal weapons.

Ningxu: "Yes, it's liquids like sulfuric acid, mixed with other liquids, which can corrode the shield car completely."

Mo Sheng: "There have been so many battles on Yonghe Continent, but I have never seen anyone bring sulfuric acid into the battlefield."

This matter was indeed strange. Ning Xu's face was full of fear. "When I got to Li Ze's side, he was only breathing his last breath. I saved him with the green jade pendant."

Mo Sheng held Ning Xu's hand and comforted her, "Don't think about it. Everything is over now. We won the battle. When I came here, I saw that they brought back a large number of prisoners."

Outside the door, the two brothers stood side by side. The soldiers passing by were all wearing bandages to varying degrees. They saluted to the two men with a smile, and it was quite lively.

Li Hao: "What does your majesty say? Peace or war?"

Li Ze was a little conflicted. He could make peace, but the Dongling Kingdom had been plotting against him for a long time, and he almost fell into his hands this time. He really couldn't swallow this humiliation.

Let's fight... The cultural difference between the small country of Dongling is too great, and he doesn't even bother to want such a country. Besides, most of his soldiers were harmed by the poison and suffered heavy losses.

Li Ze: "What conditions do you offer them?"

Li Hao: "Promise to pay tribute every year, swear not to invade, and hand over countless jewels. Youling Valley will also belong to our Tianle Dynasty in the future, as well as several cities. And... a woman..."

Li Ze was quite satisfied with what he heard, but when he heard a woman, he immediately got angry and asked, "What do you need a woman for?"

Li Hao felt a little guilty but also a little confident, "I'm already on the way. I don't care about women."

After saying this, he ran away with a righteous look on his face.

Li Ze: "Royal brother!"

No matter how loud he shouted, Li Hao had no intention of turning back to look at him.

Finally, Li Ze, Li Hao and Mo Yong discussed and agreed to make peace, and let Dongling Kingdom spit out gold coins every year.

I heard that the eldest prince of Dongling Kingdom had died, and the second prince had seized power, and the country was in chaos. If Li Ze took over, there would be constant disputes, and it would cost the Tianle Dynasty manpower and money to quell the chaos. It would be better to let him fight among himself.

As for that woman, she was said to be the eldest prince's woman. After the eldest prince's death, she had no one to rely on. The second prince saw that she was beautiful and was the first to offer her as a sacrifice. Li Hao took pity on her and brought her back.

In the evening, in order to celebrate the victory, the soldiers lit a bonfire and held a party.

Ningxu slept for another afternoon. Li Ze came to the tent and called her to get up. When they came out, a seat had been reserved for them, next to Mo Sheng.

Ningxu was tired after not having anything to eat for several days, and when she saw a large table full of food, she instantly perked up.

Mo Sheng: "Hurry up and ask your man to sit down. I'm starving."

Ningxu didn't understand, "Just eat it."

Mo Sheng: "Who dares to start the meal if His Majesty the Emperor isn't seated?"

Ningxu rolled her eyes at her and told Li Ze to sit down quickly, "Let's eat!"

At the command, everyone could no longer wait. The soldiers in the barracks were exhausted and the table was basically full of meat, which was quite to Ningxu's taste, so she started to eat the meat.

When Ningxu had almost finished eating, several generals who had fought with Li Hao for many years came up behind Ningxu and raised their glasses to toast her.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we are deeply grateful for your life-saving grace. We will drink this bowl of wine first!"

After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.

Ningxu quickly put down the meat in her hand and looked for her wine on the table in front of her, "Hey? Where's my wine?"

Li Ze smiled, picked up his own wine bowl, stood up, and toasted back. "The queen is ill, I will do it for you."

These generals originally wanted to toast themselves and did not expect Ning Xu to reciprocate. Seeing that Li Ze had already picked up the wine bowl, they wanted to stop him but did not dare to. Until he finished drinking, they applauded continuously.

"Your Majesty! You can drink a lot."

Li Ze: "Well, let's go eat,"

When everyone left, Li Ze sat down, and Ning Xu had already taken the meat back and continued to chew it. "It's a toast to me."

Li Ze put the juice in front of Ningxu and said, "You don't like drinking."

Ningxu was happy again. They hadn't seen each other for a long time. They were so affectionate even when eating, which made Mo Sheng sigh repeatedly.

With several generals leading the charge, the soldiers became bolder and praised Ningxu one after another, toasting her. Of course, they would not let Li Ze and Ningxu toast back, and they praised "the goddess is worthy of being a goddess!" while pouring wine for themselves. When they were drunk, the soldiers drank, sang and danced around the campfire.

There was singing and dancing outside, and no one noticed that in the cell, a woman was sitting facing the window. Her lonely back formed a sharp contrast with the hustle and bustle outside.

The woman clenched her sleeves, vowing to avenge this hatred!

Li Hao left the table after he had eaten his fill. He did not like crowds, but he did not forbid the soldiers from having fun.

So he went up to the watchtower alone, looking at the night view and feeling the night breeze.

Mo Sheng noticed his back at this moment, and thought of what Ning Xu said during the day. He almost left and never came back...

Well... forget it, I should just go and care about him.

At the full-moon banquet in Ping'an Pingyuan that year, Li Ze and Ning Xu were busy greeting the guests, and the two children were held by Mo Sheng and Mo Xi. It was the first time Li Hao saw them when he returned to the capital, and it was also the first time Mo Sheng and Li Hao met.

Li Hao gave her a very strange feeling. Unlike ordinary generals fighting on the battlefield, he still had the noble aura of a royal son, which formed a huge contrast.

But Mo Sheng quickly cleared him out of her mind. She swore that she would never fall in love again.
