Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1136 Peacemaker

Guan Chiying immediately said: "No, nothing."

As he spoke, he glanced at Boss Xu cautiously and forced a smile, "I was just relieved. I didn't expect that Yuwen Cheng was such a fool. It's a good deal for us."

Hearing this, Boss Xu looked at him in silence with a strange look in his eyes.

Guan Chiying was born into a prominent family, but he was not arrogant and would answer almost every question asked to him. Even so, he was not a talkative person, let alone a harsh one. Even though Chen Cai had been so rude to him before, and the young man in the team had ridiculed him many times, he had never fought back verbally.

But this time, he started cursing Yuwen Cheng as soon as he opened his mouth, and it seemed that he was angry at him for not fighting back.

Feeling that he had said something wrong, Guan Chiying hurriedly said with a smile: "Let's go quickly, it will be troublesome if we are discovered in the morning."

Boss Xu looked at him again and nodded: "Yeah."

So, the group rushed towards Luoyang City. Soon, after knocking on the city gate and giving the command, the gate opened a little, and the group filed in. They finally returned to this city that was so stubborn and rigid that it seemed like it was about to become a giant corpse.

At the same time, inside Hulao Pass, soldiers were already training on the training ground in the early morning. In front of a row of targets near the city wall, a man was standing in the rising sun, holding a bow in his hand and slowly pulling it.

It’s Yu Wenye.

What he held in his hand was not the Divine Arm Bow, but just an ordinary bow. However, even opening the bowstring felt very strenuous for him. The main problem was that the wound on his shoulder was causing him severe pain. He could even feel his flesh being torn. If he used a little more force, the wound would probably be torn apart.

"Your Highness!"

Just as Yuwen Ye clenched his teeth and prepared to pull the bow hard, Shentu Tai's voice came from behind him.

This sound suddenly made him feel a little discouraged, and he immediately loosened his hand.

Shen Tutai and Shen Wuzheng also came forward immediately. Shen Tutai anxiously snatched the bow from his hand and looked at his shoulder carefully. Fortunately, there was nothing unusual, so he breathed a sigh of relief. On the other side, Shen Wuzheng had a solemn expression and asked directly without any politeness: "What are you going to do, Your Highness?"

Yuwen Ye said calmly: "I'm just practicing, it's no big deal."

"Nothing serious yet?"

Others may not know this, but Shentu Tai was born in the military and had been injured before. He knew best that one should not force himself at such a time, so he said, "Your Highness, your injury is not a trivial matter. You should rest for the next few days. If the wound opens again, it will be difficult to deal with."

Yuwen Ye turned around and walked towards the fort while brushing his shoulders with his hand, as if he was just brushing off a bit of dust on his body without any concern, and said, "It's just a minor injury."

Shen Wuzheng said calmly: "If it is really a minor injury, why can't a single arrow hit the target?"

As soon as these words came out, Shentu Tai's breathing became tight.

When the two men learned that Yuwen Ye had come to the training ground early in the morning, they hurried over and saw that there was no arrow on the target in front of Yuwen Ye, but there were several arrows on the ground. It was obvious that he had missed. Of course, because he was injured, this was not a big deal, but when Shen Wuzheng said it in such an almost sarcastic tone, it was another matter.

No matter what their private relationship is, Yuwen Ye is still His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin.

Shentu Tai had a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.

At this moment, he even felt that he had a miserable life. He had a bad temper and was always the one that people around him had to bear with. Even when they were in Wanggang Village, Xiao Yuansui had always been tolerant of him. Who would have thought that he would become the "peacemaker" now, and he was afraid that the two people around him would quarrel if something went wrong.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Yu Wenye immediately stopped and looked at Shen Wuzheng sharply.

Shen Wuzheng also looked at him calmly, his calm attitude was like a ball of cotton, but there was a needle hidden in the cotton. Shen Tutai said hurriedly: "Your Highness, you asked us to send people to monitor the movements of Xiao Yuansui's camp. The news just came back that Xiao Yuansui sent a team of people to cross the Yellow River and go to Luoyang yesterday."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Yuwen Ye immediately turned to look at him: "Who is it?"

Shentu Tai said: "Although they are a group of people wearing the same clothes, they are obviously two groups of people. If I am not mistaken, they should be the group of people who escaped from Huiluo Cang before, and the group of people sent by Xiao Yuansui."

Shen Wuzheng said: "Luoyang must have been waiting for news back to Luocang. If time is delayed too long, changes are inevitable. Xiao Yuansui must let him know what happened outside, so he sent this group of people back."

Yuwen Ye nodded and suddenly asked, "You, didn't intercept them?"

Shen Tutai said: "General Shen let them go."

Yuwen Ye glanced at Shen Wuzheng again, and after a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "Yes."

Shen Tutai smiled and said, "It seems that Shen Canjun understands your Highness's intentions."

Yuwen Ye and Shen Wuzheng glanced at him, and Shen Tutai suddenly felt a tingling sensation on his back. Even as strong as he was, he didn't know what to say at this time. Instead, Shen Wuzheng lowered his eyelids and said calmly, "Xiao Yuansui sent someone back to pass on the message. It can indeed temporarily appease Liang Shide, but the problem of no food has not been solved. Liang Shide's only hope now is the battle at Hulao Pass. Only if Xiao Yuansui wins can the siege of Luoyang be lifted."

"..."

"In other words, as long as this side is defeated, Luoyang will fall without a fight."

Shentu Tai nodded and said, "Yes."

Shen Wuzheng looked at Yuwen Ye again: "So, Xiao Yuansui will definitely send troops as soon as possible - if not today, then tomorrow."

"..."

"While your injury is still healed."

Mentioning Yuwen Ye's injury made Shentu Tai's back numb again, but this time Yuwen Ye only glanced at him and was not angry. He was silent for a moment, then turned to ask Shentu Tai: "How is Shi Yuxin?"

Shentu Tai said hurriedly: "She is very well behaved and has not made any noise."

Yuwen Ye said: "Go and have a look."

After saying that, he walked forward.

Shen Tutai then breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Shen Wuzheng, with a somewhat helpless look in his eyes. However, Shen Wuzheng said calmly, "It's okay."

After saying that, he raised his foot and walked forward. Shentu Tai shook his head with a wry smile, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and followed the two people into the garrison.

After a while, the three men arrived at the stone house where Shi Yuxin was imprisoned.

As soon as they approached, they saw a soldier coming out. When he saw the three of them, he immediately came forward to salute. Yuwen Ye asked, "What are you doing here?"

The soldier looked at Shentu Tai cautiously and said, "General Shentu ordered us to bring hot water and food to Miss Shi every day."
