Harem: Luo Chen's Resentment

CHAPTER 104 - THE ROAD OF BROKEN PERSONS

The weather at the Fringe was constantly changing. The torrential storm had already turned into bright sunlight.

"Marshal, Baiyuguan is about to arrive!"

"Alright, we will continue to regroup and move forward. We must enter the city before nightfall." Hai Jie shouted excitedly, he turned and looked at the two young masters, he did not expect them to be able to persevere.

The ones who were being followed were naturally the Third Marquis and Luo Ning. The Third Marquis often went out to travel, and he treated this journey as a more difficult one. The main reason why Luo Ning set off to battle was to bring honor to his family, so he was willing to bear the hardships of battle.

"Luo Ning, what is the purpose of your expedition? Is it because of that young maid? " Li Yuanxiao shouted with all her might, causing the soldiers to laugh out loud and speak vulgar words. Along the way, Li Yuanxiao kept asking Luo Ning this question, causing all the soldiers to know about it.

Luo Ning spurred his horse and galloped ahead, ignoring the laughter that followed. Li Yuanxiao often teased him and spread his news throughout the army, making sure that everyone knew about it. However, because of this matter, he quickly got to know the people in the army. There were many people in the army who refused to obey orders because he was a descendant of a noble family.

"Sigh, if you give this general an answer, I'll tell you the secret of the purse!"

Luo Ning helplessly turned his head, and stared at the fellow who shamelessly followed him. How could he have such a good horse plan? Every time, he would catch up to him.

"Envious of this general's plan. When you have time, this general will hand it over to you!" Li Yuanxiao leaned on her horse leisurely, half squinting her enchanting peach blossom eyes and said. Along the way, she had Luo Ning, an honest person, and it had become much more fun. He liked to tease him, which was as interesting as his sister.

"I like that girl, but she doesn't like me," Luo Ning's low voice suddenly sounded.

"Bang!" The sound of a human body landing on the ground rang out.

"Aiyo, Great General, what's going on? "I was thrown by a horse, haha …" There were laughter and curses coming from the long line. Not long later, the news of the general's fall spread throughout the entire army camp.

"Scram to the side," Li Yuanxiao crawled up from the ground and shouted to the people behind him. He asked for an answer along the way. Initially, he had intended to give up, but upon hearing the answer, how could he not be shocked? Li Yuanxiao looked at the faces of the people behind him like an idiot, looking like she didn't know anything. Turning his head, he realized that Luo Ning was already far away from them, flying back on her horse to chase him, his smile returning to his face, "You actually admitted it, was it true? You're not lying to me, are you? " Li Yuanxiao asked softly, as if she was watching a good show.

Luo Ning turned his head, and looked at Li Yuanxiao in a daze, and coldly said: "Pouch!"

Li Yuanxiao took off his bag, and got Luo Ning to take his bag over to put together as well, "Look at this stitch, it's not embroidered by one person at all. Your two cousins and I are all made by your sister, think about it yourself!" After Li Yuanxiao finished, he galloped away on her horse.

Luo Ning was stunned, he was not the one who did it, but the one who was taken over by his sister, then she was the only one. A bright smile appeared on Luo Ning's ice-cold face. She still cared about himself.

Looking at the excited Luo Ning, the Third Marquis also laughed, finally looking a little young and full of vigor, he did not disappoint Luo Chen's pleadings to him. He didn't know how she was doing in the capital, but the Third Marquis had a reminiscent smile on his face.

The two Shangguan brothers who followed behind looked at the two men who were laughing out loud for no reason. They exchanged a look, it was really strange.

As they got closer and closer to the Baiyuguan, everyone's face became especially solemn. On the road before, they had always met a few pedestrians, but now, not a single one. This was not a good thing.

"General, there are corpses on the road ahead," the scout stammered.

Hai Jie's heart sank. Although these spies had never been to the battlefield before, they were still people with a lot of experience. How could he be scared by a corpse? Hai Jie rode his horse and dashed forward as the two brothers Li Yuanxiao, Luo Ning and Shangguan followed behind.

"Phew," Hai Jie pulled the horse closer, preventing it from moving forward. The horse panted heavily, wanting to cry out for the dead.

Luo Ning and the rest were shocked by the scene before them. The naked bodies were piled up tightly together, and in the middle, everyone's blood vessels and bones were clearly visible. They were starving to the point of being skin and bones. Some of the corpses were eaten up by the bugbeasts. Their eyes were all wide open as they stared in the direction of the city gate not far away.

"Look at that," Shangguan Muyan pointed.

Following his line of sight, he saw what seemed to be a mother and son, their son being pressed down by their mother. His son died a long time ago, and his body was already half rotten. His mother seemed to be protecting him so that his body wouldn't get eaten.

Luo Ning knelt on the ground. He had never seen such a scene before, both of his eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at the scene in front of him. His body could not help but tremble, his teeth chattering non-stop.

Hai Jie dismounted and knelt down solemnly. Li Yuanxiao had already put away her sloppy appearance and knelt in front. They simply offered sacrifices to these people, called over soldiers, and simply buried them.

Li Yuanxiao looked at Luo Ning who was not willing to leave for a long time, and patted him on the shoulder heavily, "Only if we win the battle will these citizens be able to live a good life."

Luo Ning nodded heavily and with the support of Li Yuanxiao, he stood up and walked forward with difficulty.

Li Yuanxiao looked at his figure and shook her head pitifully. She was clearly a young master from a noble family, why would she go through all this suffering? However, Li Yuanxiao approved of Luo Ning joining the army very much, as her experience as a soldier would be extremely beneficial to a person's growth.

After settling this matter, the group continued on their way.

"Light the torches." The sky gradually darkened and the torches in the army were like a dragon, brightening up the entire coast.

When they finally arrived at the Baiyuguan, there were many tents at the city gate. Seeing so many troops, the commoners ran out one by one.

"Sea General, please save little general Hai!" The person who recognized Hai Jie shouted loudly.

Hai Jie had been stationed in the Baiyuguan and was extremely familiar with the locals. And the one called General Xiao Hai should be his son, Hai Huali. Hai Huali was the general stationed in the city in Baiyuguan, so Hai Jie's heart couldn't help but tremble. His face that had gone through many vicissitudes of life had a crack, "May I ask, how is my son?" His voice trembled.

"General Hai, someone is framing General Hai for betraying the country and trying to kill him. Today, please go and save him!" A commoner shouted loudly, and the voices of agreement continuously sounded from the crowd, as they were extremely worried for Hai Huali.

"Hmph, how could my son go against the enemy? This Field Marshal wants to see who dares to do such a thing!" Coincidentally, the city gate was opened, and a group of people rushed in.
