Chapter 698 Rushing
"Don't worry about me... hurry..." Zhou Chang couldn't care less. It would be great if he could fly to Fengming Mountain.
Unfortunately, it was difficult for him to even land, let alone fly. He was too weak to do so and fell on Meisheng again.
According to prior expectations, this is already much later than the planned time, and I don't know whether Gao Yuan can delay any further.
If they were exposed, Yuan Qi and the others would be in danger of their lives.
The thin monkey advised: "No matter how anxious the prince is, he should wait until the military doctor bandages the wound before getting out of bed."
"Okay, okay...quick, quick..." Zhou Chang was not completely uncooperative.
The skinny monkey quickly winked at the military doctor, and then said, "Your Highness, the commander we just killed was another Xiye. Once he died, the situation was hopeless. The Mirage Army was surrounded on three sides and is now retreating towards Ma'an Valley."
Zhou Chang had no time to listen to the military report, but he knew that the skinny guy was trying to distract her, so he endured the pain and let the military doctor do it.
"It didn't take me much effort to transport the prince back. He woke up just after the military doctor treated his wound. It took only a short time for dumplings to be cooked. We must have made it in time." The skinny monkey was trying to find something to say, but he was racking his brains. "On the battlefield, we are also pursuing the victory. In addition, the prince killed the commander-in-chief and was seriously injured, which further motivated the three armies. I believe we will definitely have a celebration banquet this time..."
After hearing this, Zhou Chang felt relieved.
No matter what, the battle was won, and the heavy blow was not in vain.
No matter how anxious he was, after bandaging his wound, Zhou Chang still had to drink a bowl of medicine before he could barely stand up.
In order to allow her to move freely and to prevent the wound from bleeding, the military doctor wrapped her waist like a bucket.
Mei Sheng was watching from the side the whole time. When Zhou Chang was about to move out of the tent, he said, "Your Majesty, I want to follow you too."
"Why are you going with us? I've brought a military doctor." Zhou Chang was still getting used to the severe pain in her waist. In order to stop the bleeding, the bandage was tied very tightly, making it hard for her to breathe.
Mei Sheng also had his own stubbornness: "I am also half a doctor, I can take care of the prince."
"There are enough people." Zhou Chang now needs to act quickly and low-key.
"Take me there." Mei Sheng only said three words, but they were filled with a strong cry.
Zhou Chang was able to match Mei Sheng's persistence.
"Forget it, but we have agreed that you can only follow the military doctor and cannot go forward unless you are called. Can you promise?" Zhou Chang half-lying and half-leaning in the carriage, instructing Mei Sheng.
Mei Sheng didn't even look at Zhou Chang, his eyes were fixed on the injured part of his waist, and he nodded.
Skinny Monkey drove a carriage and took the two thousand elite troops he had borrowed from Jiang Meng in advance and rushed to Fengming Mountain.
Yuan Qi knew everything that happened afterwards.
Now, Zhou Chang was carried down from Fengming Mountain in a sedan chair and then put into a carriage. He was already in a semi-comatose state.
At the foot of the mountain, part of the army had already set out to chase the twenty-seven carriages that were taken away by Prince Rong's men in exchange for Yuan Yun.
The other part went up the mountain to support Gao Yuan.
Only a small number of guards remained.
Inside the carriage, the military doctor fed Zhou Chang some medicine and re-bandaged his wounds.
Only then did Zhou Chang finally save his life.
Just after the medicine was replaced, the team chasing the property returned victoriously. The carriages pulling the heavy cargo were already moving slowly, and the mountain roads were difficult to travel on. The people sent by Prince Rong were all captured before they had gone far.
On the other side, Yuan Yun, who had just been rescued, kept clamoring to see Prince Yi.
Zhou Chang really didn't have the energy to pay attention to it, so he just let the skinny monkey be threatened and frightened, and then confined in another carriage, waiting for the army to return together.
While waiting for Gao Yuan to capture Prince Rong alive and bring him down the mountain, Zhou Chang thought of Liu E again when he saw Yuan Qi.
So he asked someone to find Liu E and ask her first.
Why did Aunt Jing say that she had been buried alive, but was still alive?
Unexpectedly, Liu E came over, followed by Yuan Qi.
Zhou Chang had not seen her since he woke up in the carriage just now. Now he was half lying and half leaning on the bedding in the carriage, and he invited Yuan Qi to get in the carriage as well.
Yuan Qi refused without words.
Just now when she came down the mountain, Zhou Chang was unconscious, but Wen Fei came up again.
Wen Fei was forced to go down the mountain before Yuan Qi and had been guarded by soldiers ever since.
One reason was that he was afraid that he would run up the mountain impulsively again and ruin Zhou Chang's plan.
The other thing is that, after careful consideration, Wen Fei found that they were still on Prince Rong's side. He couldn't just say he was "deceived". Who knew if there was any other trick involved?
Yuan Qi already knew the general situation, and after listening to Wen Qingyan's explanation, he could understand it. He even advised Wen Qingyan to follow the army back with peace of mind, and everything would be decided in a fair manner.
While the two were talking, Yuan Qi was worried about Prince Yi. After the conversation, when he was about to go to visit him, he found Yuan Yun guarding outside Prince Yi's carriage.
Yuan Yun stared at her eagerly, like a hen watching her eggs.
Yuan Qi then avoided her and stayed with Liu E until King Yi sent someone to look for Liu E. As he was still worried, he followed Liu E.
However, given the current situation, it is best to avoid suspicion and naturally we cannot be in the same carriage anymore.
"Is your injury serious?" Yuan Qi asked while standing at the right door of the carriage.
Zhou Chang propped himself up a little higher and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
Yuan Qi stood by the door, the golden light of the setting sun shining on his face, making people feel as if they were in another world.
"If Your Majesty has anything to say, let's talk about it here." Yuan Qi glanced at Liu E, who was standing opposite him with a somewhat anxious look on her face.
The wound on Liu'e's shoulder had been bandaged, and she kept her head down after greeting Prince Yi.
Zhou Chang originally wanted to talk to Yuan Qi first, but after so many things happened, he had to look at Liu E again: "Aunt Jing said that they dragged you out and buried you alive, and you were rescued by someone?"
"Yes..." Liu'e's face turned pale, and she pursed her lips tightly. When she heard Zhou Chang's question, she had to answer, "That night they took me to the woods and dug a pit to bury me alive. I was almost suffocated to death in the soil, but I didn't expect that I was suddenly dug out and saved my life."
"Is it Ma Feihu?" Zhou Chang was drowsy all the way due to his serious injuries, but after drinking the medicine and re-bandaging his wounds, he regained some spirit and was able to think of it naturally.
Liu E nodded: "Yes, I only found out later that Brother Ma, the people in the martial arts world gave him the nickname 'Ma Feihu', and he also told me some of his connections with His Highness."
"What happened next?" Zhou Chang asked about what happened after Ma Feihu rescued Liu E.
Liu E did not hide anything and continued to narrate: "After Brother Ma rescued me, he took me to a farmer's house at the foot of Fengming Mountain. He stole clothes for me to change and hunted game for me to eat. Afterwards, he said that he had been following the people from the Ministry of War to see what conspiracy they were up to. At that time, I was thinking about how to rescue the young master, so I followed Brother Ma all the time."
