Chapter 58
Gu Ru hugged Cheng He tightly: "I know you are very strong, but I dare not take any risks, not even at all!"
In order not to distract Gu Rulin, after the war fell into a fierce attack, Cheng He did not go to the battlefield with Gu Rulin. He was in the camp every day. When he had time, he practiced his sword and waited well for Gu Rulin to come back.
Every day, before Gu Rulin arrived at the camp, he could see Cheng He standing on the watchtower waiting for her, looking at him with a smile, but on this day, he did not see Cheng He.
Gu Rulin felt something was wrong, so when he returned to the camp and asked Xia Yu to order troops, he immediately went to the tent to find someone, but there was no one in the tent. Not to mention Cheng He, even Mu Ling, who served Cheng He, was not there.
Gu Rulin felt uneasy and immediately summoned someone to come: "The eldest prince's concubine is gone, go find me immediately!"
It was late at night that Xia Yu found the blood-covered Wood Spirit in the wasteland five kilometers away from the camp.
Mu Ling was not injured. The blood on her body was all the secret guards who were killed to protect Cheng He. Mu Ling was thrown into the corpse and was cold all over. Xia Yu accidentally saw a shallow ups and downs on her chest, and only then did she realize that she was still alive, so she immediately took the person back to the camp.
After returning to the camp, after examination by the military doctor, it was found that Mu Ling was infected with Ruan Jingsan and Miscellaneous Medicine, and the dead secret guards were also poisoned. No one knew how they poisoned them. In short, the secret guards and Cheng He should have been taken away quietly because they were poisoned.
After Mu Ling finally woke up, Gu Rulin was afraid of scaring her, so he insisted on not asking, but Mu Ling grabbed Gu Rulin's sleeve: "Your Highness, yes, it's Li Huan. I woke up once. I saw Li Huan take away the prince's concubine with his own eyes. His people killed all the secret guards, keep them, keep them for me, just to report to you!"
Gu Rulin looked at Mu Ling and suppressed his anxiety: "What did Li Huan ask you to say!"
"He said that the prince's concubine killed his beloved general and wanted the prince's concubine to repay it with her life. If your highness is reluctant to die, she will exchange the city, or let your highness, you can exchange it with her life! Three days later, Heishanling will be clear!" Mu Ling was poisoned, and he couldn't help but be angry when he spoke. It took a lot of effort to finish the sentence.
"Dog thief!" After hearing Mu Ling's words, Xia Yu kicked over the table and chair at his feet and looked at Gu Rulin, "Your Highness, Li Huan is clearly leading us into a trap. Heishan Ridge is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you want to enter, there is only one way. Li Huan will definitely guard both sides of the mountains. This battle will inevitably be difficult!"
"I know! But even if it is difficult, Cheng He must save it, not only because she is the imperial concubine, but also because she is the people of the Great Zhou. We cannot give up any of them, the people of the Great Zhou!" Gu Rulin clenched his fists and looked at Mu Ling, "Stay rest, wait for Cheng He to come back, and you will have to take care of you!"
Mu Ling looked at Gu Rulin for a long time, then nodded gently: "Your Highness, please be sure to save the prince's concubine and come back!"
Gu Rulin glanced at Mu Ling and turned around and left: "Xia Yu, summon all the generals to my camp. In the battle of Heishanling, you can only win, not lose!"
Xia Yu was stunned for a moment and immediately responded: "Yes!"
Mu Ling watched Gu Rulin leave, and his fear was slightly relieved, but when he thought of what happened a few days ago, he became even more uneasy. He could only pray in his heart that his concubine must be safe!
