Empress Fenghua

Chapter 689 Resign Without Reason
As if everything had returned to calm, Hua Zhong looked at the retreating army of the Ling Kingdom, unable to express his feelings.The five cities under his feet are already within his reach for Xiliang Wuyan, but he chooses to return to the court at this moment. There is probably only one reason, that is, to marry Ruan Mingyue!
Hua Zhong stood on the city wall facing the wind, and the fierce howling north wind lifted her dress, as if she had transformed into a fairy.Looking back at the distant figure from time to time, she seemed to still be able to see the sparkling smile in Xiliang Wuyan's long and narrow phoenix eyes.Hua Zhong couldn't help but smile, stood on tiptoe and flew away.

Chen Xi came rushing from outside the city, watching the white figure flying away, could not help frowning anxiously.

"Open the city gate! Open the city gate..."

Chen Xi rode his horse into the city, "Empress, Empress..."

Hua Zhong paused and frowned, "Chen Xi?"

Chen Xi dismounted and ran to Hua Zhong's side panting, "Empress, Snow King..."

"What's wrong with him?" Hua Zhong had a bad feeling in his heart, which has been increasing day by day.

Inside the military tent, Hua Zhong listened to all Chen Xi's words with a melancholy expression, and fell silent for a while.Everyone around them frowned deeply, full of worry.

"Empress, what should we do now?" Chen Xi frowned, as if grasping at straws.

Hua Zhong let out a long sigh of relief, "Wuhen has his own ideas, and with his martial arts, it is absolutely impossible for others to try to hurt him. What is urgent now is how to stabilize the Snow Clan and let Situ Ye go back to the ancient tomb!"

Song Dongming frowned and stepped forward and said, "Master, let the subordinates go down if you can't do it! Now that the Lord of the Ling Kingdom and the Emperor of the Ling have retreated, there must be no more wars for a while. If Ling rushes back, there may still be some chances of winning."

Hua Chong glanced at Huamei, who frowned slightly, and Hua Zhong lowered his eyes, "Dongming, you should stay here! I don't know when Ling Kingdom will raise troops again, and now these five cities are our last line of defense. .Even if Dingguo is subjugated, I don’t want it too soon. Give me some time!”

Song Dongming glanced at Huamei, "Master, do you have any scruples?"

"It's not what you think, I really think so!" Hua Zhong waved his hand, "That's it!"

Outside the military tent, the thrush lowered her head with a sullen look, and Song Dongming blushed a little displeased.

"You can say whatever you want, why mother-in-law and mother?" Huamei raised her eyebrows and smiled with a bit of dissatisfaction.

"Why don't you agree with me going to the Snow Clan?"

"I don't disagree with you going to the Snow Clan!"

Song Dongming sighed, "The look in your eyes and expression with your master just now clearly shows that you don't want me to go, how could the master agree? I have followed the master for so many years, if I don't go at this time of crisis..."

"If you don't go, the Snow Clan will not perish. If you go, maybe it will be faster!"

"What do you mean by that?" Song Dongming looked at Huamei suspiciously.

Huamei smiled enchantingly, "You idiot!" Huamei tapped his forehead with her finger, "Because of your brain!"

After all, Huamei left dissatisfied, leaving Song Dongming alone in place, unable to understand.

Huamei walked into Hua Zhong's military tent, Hua Zhong was writing with a pen, "You and I thought about it together?"

Hua nodded emphatically, "There are many brave men in the Snow Clan, what is lacking is a leader. Yu Xianyin is not a real spiritual girl now, but she is just following the old calendar, and everyone still respects her somewhat. Feng Zhengqing seems to be a highly respected person among the courtiers of the Snow Clan, but he is only a minister after all. If he wants to lead the overall situation, there are some difficulties. The biggest difficulty for Wuhen to leave without saying goodbye is who will be in charge, not who will go Fight on the front line!"

"Dongming is brave, honest and sincere. He obviously has more than enough energy to deal with a cunning person like Situ Ye!" Huamei sneered, "I'm afraid that sending him there will only result in a worse loss. I originally wanted to fight with him." Let's go to stand for him together, but after thinking about it, it doesn't seem to make sense, so it's better not to say it!"

"You're right, maybe only I will be able to overwhelm the public opinion on this matter!" Hua Zhong put down the pen in his hand and dried the writing on it.

"You want to go there in person? I'm afraid this is a bit inappropriate!"

Hua Zhong raised the corners of his mouth, "There's nothing wrong with it, it's just an opportunity for Lingguo and Nanjiang! Dingguo will not be able to keep it sooner or later, but the pure land of the Snow Clan is different. Thrush, maybe you I still can't understand what the Xue Clan means to Wuhen. He is full of hatred for Xue Qinghui on the surface, but his love and hatred can be clearly distinguished. He loves the Xue Clan and cannot extricate himself. The Xue Clan may also be It is our last pure land!"

Huamei frowned, "Maybe this is not a good idea. If Dingguo is gone, how many years can the Snow Clan stay?"

"I can't control that much anymore, at least I have to make an effort for Wuhen!" Hua Zhong called Jin Xiaocanglong, "You send this letter to Changping, Lingguo, and hand it over to Xiliang Wuyan. The King of Southern Border knows!"

Xiao Canglong frowned, "Master, Emperor Ling has just left, and I don't need to go to Changping to catch up with the letter at this time."

Hua Zhong smiled mysteriously, "That's why I let you go to Changping to wait!"

Xiao Canglong was at a loss, but still followed Hua Zhong's words, "Your subordinates understand!"

Seeing Xiao Hidden Dragon back out, Huamei couldn't help smiling, "You're really smart!"

"It's nothing clever, my blessing is sincere!" Hua Zhong smiled and straightened her clothes, "In a few days, we will be able to return to court as teachers!"

Chen Xi froze by the campfire without saying a word, Song Dongming and Yan Yan walked over without him noticing.Rock couldn't help but feel a little strange, Chen Xi was always vigilant, how could he be so preoccupied now?
"Chen Xi?" Song Dongming called out, but Chen Xi still didn't move, "Chen Xi?"

"Ah?" Chen Xi was startled, "Brother Song, Rock... you... why are you here?"

"We've been here for a long time!" Rock shook his head helplessly, "What are you thinking? So preoccupied? You've always been the most vigilant, if it wasn't for me and Brother Song, you don't know how many times you've died by now Already!"

"Oh, where's the little hidden dragon?"

Song Dongming picked up a piece of firewood and added it to the fire, "He's off to work!"

Chen Xi sighed, "Brother Song, Rock, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"I watched you hesitate to speak in the military tent during the day, knowing that you were in trouble, but didn't ask." Song Dongming looked at him, "What is it that makes you so entangled?"

Chen Xi frowned, and unconsciously rubbed his hands on the corners of his clothes, "I..."

"Oh! There are only three of us here, what can't we say?" Rock frowned, "You want to kill us, but you said it!"

Chen Xi sighed, "Then you must promise not to tell anyone, especially the Empress!"

"What is the important thing that even the master can't know? It doesn't seem to be logical!" Song Dongming's frank and simple face showed a trace of embarrassment, "I have never hidden it from the master."

"I'm also doing it for the Empress's good!" Chen Xi plucked up her courage and said, "Actually, I only told the Empress that Snow King left without saying goodbye, but I didn't say anything else. Situ Ye was poisoned, but it wasn't Yuqiao who turned against him, but , but..."

Chen Xi lowered his voice, "It's because of Miss Suwen! Miss Suwen has been taken away by Mr. Henshui now, and her whereabouts are unknown. According to Mr. Mo, Miss Suwen's injuries are serious, I'm afraid...the time is running out!"

"What did you say?"

Chen Xi was shocked all over and took a breath, the three of them quickly turned around and looked at Hua Zhong standing at the corner of the tent.

"Master?" Song Dongming frowned, and said nervously, "Master, don't be nervous, I'm not sure about Miss Suwen..."

Hua Zhong shook his head slowly, "No! Mo Jishu said that her time is numbered, so Su Wen will really think that her time is numbered!"

Because Su Wen said that he is her most proud apprentice and also her only apprentice.If Suwen could be number one in this world, then Mo Jishu would be number two, even hating water wouldn't help.

Hua Chong burst into tears, unable to calm himself down, "Chen Xi, tell me clearly, what is going on?"
