Zhong Lan woke up.

The attack, though violent, did not last long.Wen Yao sat by the bed, tidying up the scattered hair on his face, watching the eyelashes flutter, and a pair of clear eyes slowly opened.The heart he raised was finally let go, he was ecstatic, but restrained his desire to hug Zhong Lan fiercely.

He held the back of Zhong Lan's head with one hand, and carefully sent warm water to his dry lips with a small spoon.Zhong Lang was still very weak, his lips were trembling, and water slid down the corners of his mouth.

Throat murmured: "Thirsty."

Wen Yao paused for a moment, then swallowed water in his mouth, and covered himself.Dry lips are soft and moist to the touch, wanting to grab more.Zhong Lang didn't reject it in his confusion, and even asked for it somewhat dependently.

What he asked for was not only water, but also Wen Yao's smell.As the kiss deepened, Zhong Lan's frown gradually relaxed and became more and more relaxed.

After a while, Zhong Lan fell asleep again.This time it was a peaceful sleep, demure and comfortable.

Wen Yao got up and walked outside the door.The giant five-fold black iron gate was closed layer by layer, locking the bell in it.

The Minister of Military Affairs has been waiting anxiously outside the door for a long time.

"Your Majesty, Yan has made a lot of small moves recently. We have found their scouts on the border many times, and there may be incidents in the near future. Please order in advance to strengthen the front line of defense."

"Your Majesty, the investigation found that there is a loophole in Yan's defense line. It is near Xiling Mountain. This opportunity is fleeting. If we can capture Xiling Mountain, the two cities in the southeast of Yan Kingdom will fall into my hands."

"His Majesty……"

While Wen Yao was listening, his expression remained motionless, but his eyes fell on the eunuch guarding the door.Li Quan lowered his eyebrows, as if he didn't hear anything.

Wen Yao withdrew his gaze and said lightly, "Go to the study to discuss matters."

In the dead of night, the study room was brightly lit, but the harem was so quiet that even a needle could be heard.

Li Quan carried the water basin, walked through the five gates in the eyes of many Luo Guogong people, and walked to the bed.

"The servant is here to wipe your body."

Zhong Lan turned in his throat, opened his eyes slightly, and nodded slightly after realizing that it was Li Quan.

Li Quan's eyes were full of guilt and unbearable.

It has only been less than a week since His Majesty fell into Luo Guo's hands, and yet it has become like this.

Previously, although he was unconscious when his old illness broke out, he was in good health, and he might even be at risk of being attacked if he approached him.Now that he is so weak and weak, how could it be the attack of an old disease?

It must be Luo Guojun's ruthless means, who ruined people into such a state, and then found an excuse.

Li Quan helped Zhong Lan up, and gently wiped Zhong Lan's neck, shoulders and back with a wet silk cloth.The blue and red marks left by the chains and the dots of purple and black traces are shocking.Li Quan wiped and shed tears.

When he was picked up to serve him, he found that Luo Guojun turned out to be their regent, and he felt a little lucky and secretly happy, but now he threw that little luck away.The Prince Regent had no good intentions in cultivating new forces secretly.

To rescue His Majesty.

It was dawn, and the rooster hadn't crowed yet.A woman dressed as a village girl walked out of the city gate with a package to go back to her mother's house, turned left and right and entered a thatched cottage.

All the people in the room who were sitting and resting with their eyes closed woke up in shock, and quickly asked, "How is it?"

The girl finally couldn't bear it any longer, and washed her face with tears: "Eunuch Li said that His Majesty was locked behind five iron gates, and he didn't even have an inch of good skin on his body. Not only that, he also became seriously ill because of it, and the Lord Luo actually I found an excuse for an old illness, and I didn’t even admit that I did those things.”

"Beasts!"

"This child's mind will fall into the endless hell in the future!"

"When our Majesty was in power, we didn't criticize him too much. How could he repay his kindness like this?"

One of the generals sighed heavily, with a serious expression on his face: "Although we have not been liquidated by Luo Guo and still have idle positions, we are no longer able to mobilize the army under the eyes of Luo Guo to resist and revive."

There was an equally mournful silence in the room.

"My lord, the letter from that day...?"

The atmosphere turned abruptly, and everyone in the room dodged their eyes from each other.

The old general at the head pondered: "Yan Guo took great pains to send us a letter, reminding us that His Majesty is in an extremely difficult situation, and if we drag it on, we will lose our lives. This time, we will take advantage of Eunuch Li to sneak in to send the letter, and we will confirm what the letter said. .”

"This is definitely Yan Guo deliberately provoking it," someone answered, "We know that there are ulterior motives, but if we don't cooperate with them, how can we be worthy of His Majesty."

"The core of the Luo Kingdom was originally the Later Tang Dynasty and the Qi Kingdom, both of which were our allies; and the old Nanqiong army was broken up and incorporated into the Luo Kingdom's army. If we want to raise troops, we will also target our former siblings." Some pessimistic people shook their heads again and again, "It's such a dilemma."

All eyes were on the old general.The latter has a gray beard, eyes as sharp as an eagle, and holds on to the handrail firmly.

"We must act."

Many people closed their eyes.

The old general gritted his teeth and added: "The situation in Xiling Mountain is tense, and the grain and grass are being mobilized there. The grain transportation channel passes through the area we can control, and I am afraid that we can cut off the grain and grass for a few days. We will use this to force Lord Luo to release His Majesty. As long as he releases People, we will reopen the grain transportation channel, and it will not affect the overall situation."

"Master is wise."

"That's it." The old general turned his head, "You find a way to write back to Yan Guo, saying that I will agree to cooperate. When they get news from the front, I will control the food and grass."

At dawn, everyone in the deep palace bowed down like a wave, forming a passage.Hong Yi hurried forward, tired all night.

"Xin Guojun recovered quickly and is in good spirits."

Wen Yao's complexion improved slightly.As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhong Lan turning over and getting out of bed.

His eyes were suddenly sharp, piercing Zhong Lan's half of the sole of his foot that touched the ground, as if he wanted to cut it off.

Zhong Lan: "..."

What a coincidence.

Wen Yao took him back to the bed.Raising his hand, the palace man brought warm water.He picked up the silk cloth floating in the water basin, and carefully wiped the bare foot that touched the ground inside and out.

The fingers were wrapped in silk and passed between the fingers, allowing the itchiness to spread all over the body from the toes all the way to the calf.Wen Yao had just finished the military affairs meeting, he was meticulous from head to toe, solemnly dressed, with a serious and decisive expression, but he was holding a pale foot in his hand, wiping it meticulously.

The toes tensed, pulling the chain with a harsh thud.Zhong Lan's calf was stretched straight, his lips touched lightly, and the corners of his eyes were flushed.

After he finished wiping, Zhong Lan curled up his legs as soon as he let go.

"The old illness has not healed, and I still need to rest." Wen Yao's voice was calm, and when he raised his eyes, the black pupils seemed to be a black world that sealed the bell, as if it was about to swallow his whole.

Zhong Lan snorted lightly: "I'm fine."

Wen Yao couldn't help but stuff him back into the soft bedding.Zhong Lang's body was completely wrapped in boneless and comfortable softness, and the hard and cold chains on his hands and feet seemed particularly abrupt.

Palace people filed in.Some add incense, some trim candle wicks, and some play fans beside them.

There was a small table next to the bed, on which there were all kinds of delicious dishes, all Zhong Lan's favorite food on weekdays.

"Stay here obediently," Wen Yao raised his chin, "Look how kind I am to you."

Zhong Lan's first reaction was "Oh, it's very comfortable", but when Wen Yao let go of his chin and the body temperature disappeared, Zhong Lan's heart suddenly felt empty.

After Wen Yao left, Zhong Lan rolled around on the bed, faintly agitated.

Yan Guojun received the news that Nanxin's old department was willing to cooperate, and snorted: "They are empty-handed white wolves, and first forced Luo Guojun to hand over people, but they flew away and did not affect the purpose of the battle. I really don't see it?"

Li Weisong was picking the fruit by himself, his hands full of juice, leisurely: "Your Majesty has an idea?"

"It takes time for the news to pass. After they resume the food road, the front line will have to wait at least an hour before they can get supplies. The old Nanxin will definitely choose the middle of the battle, which will not affect the overall situation; and their news is all obtained from Yan." Yan. The monarch sneered, "Half an hour early, half an hour late. Why should I tell them the truth?"

In this way, Nanxin's old department thought that it was a time for rest, but it would be a time for the frontline troops to fight bloody battles and run out of ammunition and food.

In this way, Luo Guo will not only be defeated, but will definitely vent his anger on Nanxin's old troops and launch a bloodbath internally.The internal instability of Luo State will naturally give Yan State a chance.

Li Weisong was a little surprised: "Your Majesty has a clear logic."

That's what he planned from the start.

"Xiling Mountain was originally a trap I set for Luo Guo. Now, it's time to be caught."

The bell is locked in a deep palace without windows, and the candles continue to burn without interruption, day and night.When Li Quan came in to serve him, he would give him a reminder to help him know how long it had been outside and what had happened.

Wen Yao will come every day.As soon as he came, all the palace people would retreat and lock all the doors, as if they wanted to lock the two of them in this world alone forever.

After the onset of the illness, Wen Yao was like a frightened bird, terribly afraid of Zhong Lang going out again.He was very gentle towards Zhong Lang, and when Zhong Lang was sleeping a few times, he would not wake him up, but would just watch him by the bed for several hours and kiss him.Zhong Lan knew he had been there when he woke up and found a new mark on his neck.

However, Wen Yao's being so cautious made Zhong Lang very uneasy.

When was the last time you were upset?

He has encountered crises and unexpected dangers. He will be surprised and will try to get up to solve the problem, but he will not be anxious.

This feeling has not been experienced for decades.

The more careful Wen Yao is, the more he resembles the wise and cautious proton back then, oppressed and painful, alienated and closed.

Although Zhong Lan and Wen Yao are several rounds behind in age, they are both beginners in love.After all, Zhong Lan is still an older person, more mature.

"We still need to be honest," he thought, "or he'll always feel like I've failed him."

However, Wen Yao did not come for the next few days.Li Quan said that he was busy with military affairs, but he couldn't tell the specifics.

"Then," Zhong Lang has never been so anxious before, "Go and ask, if I send a letter to him himself, is he always allowed?"

"The old department of Nanxin received false news and cut off the supply, and they didn't realize it at this time." In the Yanguo camp, the messenger was reporting, "The frontline firepower of Luoguo has been exhausted. At this moment, they only have swords in their hands, and they are powerless to resist."

"Okay!" Yan Guojun looked at the sand table and sneered, "When Nanxin's old troops find out that something is wrong, Luo Guo has already been defeated. They are a bunch of idiots. If Luo Guo is defeated, how will their beloved Xin Guojun save his life?"

Li Weisong smiled, his eyes were also icy cold, he turned to the soldiers and said, "Go, let's make a quick decision."

On the food transportation road, soldiers wearing the same armor from both sides confronted each other.

Nanxin's former army looked nervous, while staring at the train team in the south that was always ready to break out, and on the other hand staring at the front line to reply to the letter.

As long as Luo Guojun on the front line replied to the letter and at the same time ordered the capital to release Zhong Lang, they would make way for the luggage team.

Suddenly there was a burst of ecstatic exclamation: "The letter has arrived!"

Everyone in Nanxin who was standing restlessly in the camp got up, even the messenger couldn't wait, and rushed out of the tent immediately.

A captured homing pigeon is cooing and flapping its wings.

"Wait, why is this direction wrong? Didn't this carrier pigeon fly from the capital to the front line?"

"Let's read it first. There is the Luo Kingdom's royal logo on this letter box, so it's unmistakable."

The carrier pigeon struggled anxiously and beat its wings fiercely, but couldn't keep the letter post after all.

"Why is this letter paper Bo Shengxuan used for calligraphy practice? Is this kind of paper used in the front line to send letters?" The person who looked around was puzzled.

"Why are you so talkative? You'll know if you unfold it."

Several heads formed a circle, staring at the little scroll very earnestly.

Slowly unfolding—the words come into view——

Their expressions froze at the same time, and their faces turned red at the same time.
