The general kneels on the washboard again

Xiezhou and Huanzhou have just been recovered.

Jiang Yunxiao plunged into the camp, and Yue Niang invited the sisters to appreciate the flowers and the moon every day.

At first, the days were easy.

That day, Riyue Niang took Xiao Ling'er out to appreciate the flowers.

"Sister Yue Niang, the flowers are so beautiful today." Xiao Ling'er said with a smile.

Yue Niang nodded gently, "Yes, I only wish there were more beautiful scenes like this in this world."

At this moment, everything was quiet. Xiao Ling'er took advantage of Yue Niang's unpreparedness and quietly cast a strange spell, trying to detect whether Yue Niang was the person they had been looking for.

A glimmer of light passed by, and a hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Ling'er's eyes. She finally confirmed Yue Niang's identity.

That night, Yue Niang was knocked unconscious by Xiao Ling'er in her sleep and was taken out of the Dacheng Kingdom.

When Jiang Yunxiao discovered Yue Niang was missing, he was extremely anxious. "It's impossible for Madam to just disappear like that. I must find her!"

He sent his men to gather information everywhere, and he himself searched for clues day and night.

"Sir, there is still no news about the madam." The subordinates reported again and again, making Jiang Yunxiao's heart heavier.

"Keep looking, even if you have to turn the world upside down, you must find her!" Jiang Yunxiao roared.

After Xiao Ling'er captured Yue Niang and brought her to Dongqi Kingdom, she imprisoned her in a dark dungeon and bound her with iron chains.

"Sister Yue Niang, you are our hope." Xiao Ling'er said coldly.

Yue Niang glared at her, "What on earth do you want to do?"

Xiao Ling'er's lips curled up. "After the war, plague ravaged our Dongqi, and the people suffered terribly. I read books every day on this platform, and finally saw the guidance of the oracle. You are the Holy Witch of our Dongqi. As long as you are locked on this platform, our Dongqi will be safe and prosperous forever."

Yue Niang spat, "Don't even think about it!"

Xiao Ling'er looked at Yue Niang's trapped appearance and felt a little sorry: "Sister, we have different opinions. I don't ask for your understanding, but you definitely can't get off this platform."

In Dacheng, Jiang Yunxiao finally got some information about Yue Niang after much investigation.

"Sir, it is said that the lady is in Dongqi."

Jiang Yunxiao's eyes were determined. "Prepare the horses. I want to go to Dongqi Kingdom myself."

He ignored the obstruction of Jiang Songrui and Cao Jin and resolutely embarked on the road to Dongqi Kingdom.

Along the way, Jiang Yunxiao encountered many difficulties, but he had only one belief in his heart, which was to find Yue Niang.

The plague in Dongqi spread rapidly, reaching Qiefeng and Dacheng. Countless people died, and the land was in mourning.

In this chaos, Jiang Yunxiao accidentally contracted the plague, but he still forced himself to move forward.

Finally, he found Yue Niang, who was imprisoned with iron chains, on a high building called Yuetai.

"Yue'er!" Jiang Yunxiao shouted weakly.

Yue Niang raised her head, her eyes filled with surprise and tears, "Husband!"

Jiang Yunxiao dragged his frail body and walked towards Yue Niang with difficulty.

Every step I took seemed to use up all my strength.

"Yue'er, I'm here to save you." Jiang Yunxiao's voice was hoarse and firm.

Yue Niang looked at his haggard face and felt distressed. "Husband, you shouldn't have come. Are you infected with the plague?"

Jiang Yunxiao smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter. Without you, what's the point of me living?"

At this moment, Xiao Ling'er appeared in front of them, "Humph, since you are here, then she won't be lonely with you accompanying her."

Jiang Yunxiao glared at her, "You vicious woman, let Yue Niang go."

Xiao Ling'er sneered, "Let her go? Unless she promises to save the Dongqi Kingdom."

Yue Niang gnashed her teeth and said, "What do your lives have to do with me?"

Xiao Ling'er's eyes turned cold, "Then you will all die here together."

Xiao Ling'er has been taking growth-inhibiting drugs since she was young. Just because her mother is from Dacheng, she is only fit to work on the platform.

Jiang Yunxiao couldn't hold on any longer.

At this moment, the voice of the white-bearded old man suddenly appeared in Yue Niang's mind, "Child, you can save him, as long as you are willing to pay the price."

Yue Niang was shocked, "What's the price?"

"You and the baby in your belly will disappear from this world." The white-bearded old man's voice was full of helplessness.

Yue Niang subconsciously touched her belly. Is she pregnant?

Jiang Yunxiao noticed Yue Niang's strangeness and said, "Yue Niang, don't listen to them. Even if I die, I will never let you do anything dangerous."

Yue Niang looked at Jiang Yunxiao, her eyes full of affection, "Yunxiao, if we can exchange our lives for peace in this world, then why not?"

Jiang Yunxiao held Yue Niang's hand tightly and said, "No, I will never allow you to do this."

Yue Niang gently broke free from his hand and looked at Xiao Ling'er, "Okay, I promise you, but you must let my husband go first."

Xiao Ling'er hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "As long as you can fulfill your promise, I will let him go."

Jiang Yunxiao yelled, "Yue Niang, don't!"

Yue Niang turned her head and looked at Jiang Yunxiao affectionately, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Yunxiao, I have no regrets in this life for meeting and falling in love with you." Yue Niang's voice trembled.

Jiang Yunxiao's eyes were red as he shook his head desperately, "Yue Niang, I won't let you do this. There must be another way."

Yue Niang slowly approached him and gently stroked his face. "Yun Xiao, this is the only choice I can make. I just hope you can live well."

Jiang Yunxiao hugged Yue Niang tightly, "No, without you, what's the point of me living."

Yue Niang gently pushed him away and said, "Promise me that you will take good care of yourself and live a good life."

Jiang Yunxiao's heart ached, "Yue Niang, I can't do this."

Yue Niang's eyes were firm, "Husband, you must do this, for me."

At this time, Xiao Ling'er urged impatiently, "Stop dawdling and make a decision quickly."

Yue Niang took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Yunxiao again, "Jiang Yunxiao, remember that I love you, I will always love you."

After saying that, Yue Niang turned away from Jiang Yunxiao and said to Xiao Ling'er, "Take me to make a wish."

Jiang Yunxiao collapsed to the ground in despair, shouting Yue Niang's name at the top of his lungs.

Xiao Ling'er brought Yue Niang to a mysterious place, and Yue Niang silently made a wish to the white-bearded old man in her heart.

In an instant, a ray of light flashed, the plague began to gradually dissipate, and the dead people slowly woke up.

Yue Niang's body gradually became transparent, and she knew that she was about to disappear from this world.

And Jiang Yunxiao didn't even know that she was already pregnant with his child.

Jiang Yunxiao watched Yue Niang's figure becoming increasingly faint. He frantically wanted to rush over and grab her, but was blocked by an invisible force.

"Yueniang! Don't leave me! Fu Yueniang, don't." Jiang Yunxiao's voice was full of pain and despair.

Yue Niang smiled, and that smile was like a newly blooming flower, beautiful but with endless sadness.

"Forget me and live well." Yue Niang's voice seemed to come from the distant sky, becoming weaker and weaker.

Yue Niang eventually vanished from this world completely, as if she had never appeared. Jiang Yunxiao held the gradually evaporating air in his arms, his eyes hollow and his heart dead.

"Yue Niang...how could you leave me like this..." Jiang Yunxiao murmured to himself, his voice choked with sobs.

Xiao Ling'er was standing by, watching Jiang Yunxiao's painful expression, and a sense of guilt welled up in her heart.

"This is her choice. Maybe it's a relief for her." Xiao Ling'er tried to comfort Jiang Yunxiao.

Jiang Yunxiao turned his head abruptly and glared at Xiao Ling'er, "Liberation? It was you, you forced her to make this choice!"

Xiao Ling'er lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Jiang Yunxiao's angry eyes.

"She is not from this world, you..."

Before Xiao Ling'er finished speaking, Jiang Yunxiao slowly stood up, his eyes becoming extremely determined, "I will make you pay for what you have done."

He turned and left, his figure looking lonely and resolute in the afterglow of the setting sun.

A raging fire of revenge ignited in his heart, and he began to gather his former comrades, preparing to launch a war of revenge against the Dongqi Kingdom.

"General, the battle between Xiezhou and Huanzhou just ended not long ago. We are short of troops now. I'm afraid our chances of winning are slim if we attack Dongqi Kingdom at this time." The deputy general said worriedly.

Jiang Yunxiao's eyes were determined, and he clenched his fists. "Yue Niang's sacrifice cannot be in vain. Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I will make Dongqi pay the price!"

Inspired by Jiang Yunxiao, more and more old subordinates responded, and Ling Ze also strongly supported it.

In the Dongqi Kingdom, Xiao Ling'er learned of Jiang Yunxiao's movements and was filled with worry.

"I'm the one who harmed everyone. I must find a way to stop this war." Xiao Ling'er decided to go to Jiang Yunxiao's tent in person to seek peace.

When Xiao Ling'er came to the tent, Jiang Yunxiao looked at her indifferently.

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Yunxiao's voice was icy cold.

Xiao Ling'er knelt down and pleaded guilty, "This is all my fault. Please spare the people of Dongqi."

Jiang Yunxiao sneered, "Let her go? Did you ever let Yue Niang go before?"

Xiao Ling'er burst into tears. "I am willing to die as an apology, and I only ask you to stop the war."

Jiang Yunxiao looked at her and coldly threw a dagger in front of her: "Then you will die."

After that night, Dongqi became the border of Dacheng.

After two lifetimes, Yue Niang only exists in Jiang Yunxiao's memory.
