Palace scheming: Empress Leng Palace

Chapter 295

"Yi, Yi..." In the deep palace in the dead of night, Yun Qing suddenly screamed and sat up from the bed. Bi Tao and Xiao Taohong who heard the movement rushed over to hold the lamp, and when they lifted the curtain, they saw the young lady covering her face with pale hands. The fine sweat on the chest and forehead also appeared so fine under the light of the candlelight.


"Miss, what's wrong with you, did you have a nightmare?" Bi Tao gently wiped Yun Qing's sweat with a silk handkerchief, and Murong Chong asked nervously from outside the hall: "Your Majesty, what happened?".

Hearing the abnormal footsteps coming from the hall, he immediately jumped up lightly, and rushed to the outside of Yun Qing's hall with great worry.


Since the prince from another country sneaked into the palace last time, he has become more cautious towards the guards of the Golden Phoenix Palace. He is always worried that letting outsiders sneak into the palace again will be extremely dangerous to the emperor and empress.


"It's nothing, you can just step back!" Yun Qing didn't want to wake everyone up by herself, her expression softened slightly, and she loudly reassured Murong Chong.Turning to look at Xiao Taohong and Bitao's worried faces, she forced a smile and said, "I'm fine, it was just a dream."


"Miss, don't worry too much about Lord Yi. Although there was news the day before yesterday that Lord Yi's soldiers and horses were lost in the desert, Bitao believes that Lord Yi is auspicious, and nothing will happen!" Seeing Miss's slightly green eyes, Bitao Also full of worries.


The news of Prince Yi's accident was only sent back to the palace the morning before yesterday. No matter how fast the flying pigeon was, it would not be able to get the latest news quickly within three days. The young lady was so anxious that she did not close her eyes for two days, and finally slept tonight. Then, he was awakened by the nightmare again.


Alas, please God bless Prince Yi to be safe and sound, and please God bless the young lady and the emperor not to be troubled by these worries anymore.If this goes on like this, how can the young lady's physical strength sustain it?

"Well, I also believe that he will be fine!" Yun Qing tightly grasped Bitao's hand, speaking words of comfort to herself, but the back of her hand was slightly hurt by her vigorous fingertips .

The dream just now was so terrifying, until now her heart was still trembling slightly, and her palms were involuntarily tense.


Yat, where is he?Will something happen to him?
The reported news said that he led a team of elite soldiers to attack the enemy's grain camp at night, while the main force of the other side directly attacked the opponent's camp as a cover.


Although this raid successfully burned the enemy's food and grass, but because the enemy was very brave and good at fighting, even after being attacked in the night, they responded very quickly, and the formation was formed in an extremely orderly manner, which almost trapped the army.


Fortunately, Xuanyuan Yi led the [-] elite soldiers to rush out of the encirclement, forming a flexible serpentine formation in the enemy camp, dodging left and right to disperse the enemy camp, and the army took over a large area of ​​the enemy camp in one go.

Later Xuanyuan Yi did not take advantage of the victory to attack, but ordered the army to retreat quickly, and he took [-]% elite troops to deal with the aftermath.


The military adviser Cao Zijian said in the above information that when the army successfully retreated to the city, they saw the enemy camp ablaze from a distance, and the westerly wind in the middle of the night helped a lot, and the enemy camp far away from the camp was also set on fire for a time. The enemy army was in chaos.


Even later, there was a sound of fighting. It was thought that the enemy army in the rear had discovered that General Xuanyuan was fighting.


Just happened to collide with the enemy's rear army, so a new round of fighting resumed, and because the enemy's commander sent [-] elite soldiers to ambush General Xuanyuan, the enemy's formation was a bit messy without the commander, and they were driven back to the camp to seek Xuanyuan Yi's help. The lieutenant--Lu Liangxin was defeated and defeated in the end.


At this time, the sky had already brightened, but General Xuanyuan still hadn't appeared, and the army pursued for a while, but they never saw the soldiers from the two sides.Just when Lu Liangxin led the army to pursue the desert where there were signs of battle just now, he saw a sandstorm from a distance, which is a common phenomenon in the desert.

The veteran who accompanied him told Lu Liangxin that General Xuanyuan and the enemy commander might have encountered a sandstorm, and if they were lucky, they would be able to return, and if they were unlucky...


Later, Lv Liangxin was worried that the city would be empty. If the enemy's defeated army joined the commander and returned to attack the city, the consequences would be unimaginable, so the army had no choice but to give up looking for General Xuanyuan to return to the city.


If there were no accidents, General Xuanyuan's soldiers and horses should have returned before the sun set, but until the night of the day, there was still no sign of him and the elite soldiers.


That's why Cao Zijian worriedly sent a small team of soldiers and horses out to search, but there was still no news, and no trace of a fight was seen, so he wrote a letter to the court.


After the news came back, Xuanyuanze and Yun Qing kept hiding from the Queen Mother, but they didn't want the news to leak out. The Queen Mother chased Xuanyuan Ze restlessly to ask about the situation, and Yun Qing was worried that the Queen Mother would hinder Ze's handling of other government affairs, so he had to find time to talk to him from time to time. To comfort and resolve.


But it has been almost three days now, and there is still no news. Although she has been reassuring the queen mother that Xuanyuan Yi will be fine, she has no less worries than the queen mother.


Especially tonight, on the night of the full moon, she was really worried that Yi could not bear the dry cold over there in the wild, and wondered if his illness would recur again?

"Miss, go to sleep a little longer, it's still early." Seeing that the lady refused to sleep because she was worried, Xiao Taohong couldn't help persuading her, reaching out her hand to hold down Yun Qing's movement of getting out of bed.

"Xiao Taohong, what time is it?" Yun Qing was no longer sleepy, seeing that Ze hadn't come back, she couldn't help worrying and wanted to help him.


"Miss, when you were ugly just now, the emperor thought it was time to come back." Seeing the lady's face, Xiao Taohong knew that the lady felt sorry for the emperor and was still working at such a late hour.But the young lady herself was too tired, she really didn't want to let the young lady suffer any more.


"Chou Shi." Yun Qing was stunned, and the distress that immediately overflowed made her brows twitch uncontrollably: "It's time to be ugly again, he should come back.".

Ze, he has been busy every day, but he has not slept for an hour or two, and he has to go to court again.

Alas, she really couldn't bear to see him work so hard.However, what she can help him is too little...
