Chapter 360 Self-blame

Author: Bei Wei

When Shen Yuexi saw Mei Dai leading the cavalry to meet them, she felt happy and worried at the same time.

Fortunately, the Xirong army was facing a crisis, and the Xiliang cavalry came here to support. What was worrying was that Mei Dai led the cavalry here, and Xiao Zhuo would definitely lack troops. I wonder if he could withstand Zhao Mu's attack.

She said to Shen Lan: "Sister, can you tell how many cavalry are coming from Xiliang?"

Although she was also standing on a high slope, she only saw a large number of cavalry coming from the north, but could not calculate the specific number.

Shen Lan said with a hint of joy in his tone: "About four thousand, each cavalryman brought an extra horse. My brother-in-law already knew what happened here and asked the Queen of Xiliang to come and meet us."

After hearing this, Shen Yuexi quickly calculated in her mind. After excluding the wounded, the Xirong army should still have 5,000 men ready to fight. Including Mei Dai's cavalry, the total strength was nearly 9,000. The enemy troops coming from the south were only 8,000 or 9,000. Thousands versus eight thousand, in terms of strength, at least our side will not suffer a loss, and the enemy will have to think carefully even if they want to attack.

She felt much more at ease, so she turned around and looked away from the north. She glanced across the rows of thousands of Xirong troops down the slope and looked at the enemy cavalry coming from the south.

The enemy cavalry was getting closer and closer, and several yellow flags flickered in and out among the numerous flags. The other Yan army flags clustered the yellow flags in the middle, making the yellow flags more conspicuous.

"Sister-in-law, those are the imperial flags," Su Mo pointed to the south nervously, "It's Beiheng, he's here in person."

"Ah, did my brother come after me in person?" Shen Yuexi put her palms between her eyebrows in surprise to block the sun, squinted her eyes and looked across.

She searched for a long time but did not see Xiao Beiheng. The enemy cavalry had swept to the front of the formation and formed a formation, stopping outside the bow and arrow range of the Xirong army. Behind them, the Xiliang cavalry also arrived one after another and divided into two groups to protect the left and right sides of the Xirong army. .Both sides were cavalry. The horses shook their heads and breathed, neighing continuously. The horses' hooves made the entire battlefield filled with dust.

Hu Gubie, who was at the bottom of the slope, raised his head and shouted to Shen Lan and Shen Yuexi: "Princess An, military advisor. The Queen of Xiliang has arrived."

With the sound of horse hooves, Mei Dai rode up, followed by several Xiliang generals. She reached the bottom of the slope, flew off her horse, and said: "Sister, military advisor. I have brought four thousand cavalry, and they are now under the command of the military advisor."

Mei Dai and Shen Lan have been fighting in Xiliang for a long time, and the two of them have already become familiar with each other. Shen Lan went down the slope to assign tasks to the generals. Shen Yuexi greeted Mei Dai and said: "Sister Mei, you came just in time. I I am worried that there are too many soldiers and horses on the opposite side."

Mei Dai held hands with her. Without answering her first, she looked at Su Mo who was standing behind her and said, "Why is she here?"

Su Mo came over hesitantly and said: "Queen, I..."

She knew that if she followed Shen Yuexi to escape, not only would she lose her identity as queen, but her identity as Princess Ping would also be stripped away. She was very troubled by the thought of losing so many things at once.

Shen Yuexi saw that Su Mo was in trouble, so she said to Mei Dai: "Sister Mei, she came to persuade Xiao Beiheng to surrender. I won't let her go back."

After hearing this, Mei Dai raised her eyebrows, held Shen Yuexi's hand and walked to Su Mo: "Do you really want to come with us?"

Su Mo nodded hesitantly.

Seeing Mei Dai's face full of disbelief, Shen Yuexi quickly took Mei Dai's hand and said, "Sister, let me handle this matter. The enemy is right in front of us now. Let's get through this hurdle first."

Mei Dai shook her head, looked to the opposite side and said, "An enemy general has come out."

Shen Yuexi raised her eyes and saw that the Yan army cavalry on the opposite side separated to both sides, revealing a row of imperial flags. In the middle was the emperor's flag. Under the flag, Xiao Beiheng was wearing yellow and white dragon scale armor, with a red dragon-patterned cloak behind him, and under the flag was Wu Zui. The horse was guarded by more than a hundred forest guards on each side.

Looking at Xiao Beiheng, Shen Yuexi remembered the time when she and he raced horses and flew in the sky together in a hot air balloon. Now that soldiers are fighting each other and brothers are fighting, I'm afraid they will never go back to the past.

A Yan army general rushed out of the military formation and shouted in a loud voice: "Traitor, the emperor is here, why don't you worship him?"

If the enemy general shouts something, if you don't respond, it will boost the enemy's morale and destroy your own prestige.

Shen Yuexi first looked at Mei Dai on her right, then turned to look at Shen Lan at the bottom of the slope, and then weighed herself. It seemed that no one could shout with such a loud voice. No wonder since ancient times, women have not been able to fight, and they are not strong. In addition, just the need to have a loud voice is completely eliminated.

It would be great if Big Bear could make a loudspeaker, allowing a thousand people to hold a loudspeaker and shout at the other side at the same time... But what materials are needed to make a loudspeaker? Such electrical appliances may not be easy to come by.

While she was thinking about it, Mei Dai squeezed her hand and said, "Sister, don't worry, my sister is here with the general who called the formation."

The Xirong army also separated. Geng Hong, the general of Xiliang, rushed out on horseback and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Bullshit, the emperor we recognize is Emperor Qi Ming. His Majesty passed away last month and a new emperor has not yet been established. How dare you call yourself emperor?" ."

Geng Hong's voice was louder than the other person's, and Shen Yuexi was very satisfied. She thought Geng Hong was quite gentle when he sent military rations to Shengjing. She didn't expect that he would be a different person on the battlefield.

The general of the Yan army on the opposite side said: "Your Majesty inherited the emperor's decree of Zhaixing Tower and established the throne, and later announced it to the world. You pretend to be deaf and mute and refuse to worship the emperor when you see him. This is treason. Your Majesty has the virtue of a good life, you If you abandon your armor and surrender, your majesty will spare you the death penalty. If you are stubborn, you will definitely join the traitor Xiao Zhuo..."

Just as he was talking enthusiastically, someone's voice seemed to be heard behind him. The Yan Army general stopped, turned around, listened for a few words, nodded repeatedly, and then turned around and said:

"We won't talk about this matter. Your Majesty is here today to recover the Queen. As long as you release the Queen, Your Majesty will withdraw your troops and let you go."

When Geng Hong heard this, he wondered how the Xirong army was fighting this battle, and why the queen was even kidnapped. He couldn't make the decision, so he turned back and looked at Gao Po.

Mei Dai said: "Sister, I'll go down and talk to Xiao Beiheng." Shen Yuexi grabbed her and said, "Sister Mei, you are watching from above. I am the cause of this incident. Let me talk to the other side."

She was the one who urged Su Mo to stay here. She was the cause of this incident, and it was naturally up to her to solve it.

Seeing Mei Dai stop, Shen Yuexi took Su Mo's hand and said, "My brother thinks that I kidnapped you, so I went to the battle with my sister-in-law to let him know that you left voluntarily."

Su Mo was noncommittal and just stared blankly at Xiao Beiheng in the opposite military formation.

She was not good at riding and fell off her horse twice last night. Fortunately, there were people protecting her from falling. This time, Shen Yuexi simply took her on foot. The two of them turned down the hillside and walked through the Xirong army formation to the front of the formation. Shen Yuexi said to the general of the Yan army: "My brothers and sisters and I are here. Let my brother come out and answer the question."

The Yan Army general turned his horse around and returned to the formation. Xiao Beiheng galloped out, reined in his mount in front of the two armies' formations, looked at Su Mo, and said after a while:

"Momo."

Su Mo's body was trembling slightly, her eyes were complicated, and she looked at Xiao Beiheng without saying a word.

Shen Yuexi said: "Brother, I did not make things difficult for my younger siblings. She came with me voluntarily. You should know why she did this."

Xiao Beiheng did not respond to Shen Yuexi, but looked at Su Mo and said, "Momo, is it true? Do you really want to leave me?"

Su Mo still didn't answer, looking at Xiao Beiheng blankly, her eyes gradually turning red.

Shen Yuexi saw that Su Mo was nostalgic for Xiao Beiheng, and felt bad. As the saying goes, a couple can be grateful for a hundred days, and a couple can be as deep as the ocean for a hundred days. It was simply unrealistic for Su Mo to cut off her feelings for Xiao Beiheng all at once. What should we do? Su Mo also knew that it was Xiao Beiheng who killed Emperor Qi Ming, but Su Mo seemed unable to make up his mind.

Su Mo was kind-hearted. Not only did she save her sister Shen Lan's life, but she also helped her at the most critical moment. She couldn't just sit idly by regardless of circumstances, so she had to pull Su Mo out. Thinking of this, Shen Yuexi decided to risk her life. He had to lower his face and scold Xiao Beiheng, telling him to quit. Even if he was ridiculed as a shrew, it didn't matter.

She hesitated, put her hands on her hips, raised her eyebrows, and said to Xiao Beiheng fiercely:

"You are still here pretending to be pitiful. You can't believe how hard you beat her. I was watching right there, and her face was so swollen on both sides! Today I, the sister-in-law, have the final say to let her leave this scumbag like you. You If you dare to chase me shamelessly again, I will scold you every day, believe it or not."

She was pregnant, and her belly was conspicuous, so the generals on both sides paid much attention to her. Now she transformed into a shrew and cursed the streets. Both sides stopped looking at each other and paid attention to her. Many soldiers opened their mouths and even tongues. Let cool.

Mei Dai and Shen Lan standing on the slope were also stunned.

Shen Lan said to Mei Dai: "Queen, my sister used to be very quiet, why did she suddenly become like this?"

Mei Dai whispered: "That's not true. She once scolded me like this. Not only did she scold me, she also scolded my father..."

"Wasn't the Queen angry at that time?"

"No, her scolding was reasonable, and I couldn't refute it, so I could only cry."

Shen Lan snorted, turned around and saw Shen Yuexi scolding even more vigorously.

"...You think that because you are her husband-in-law, you can bully her at will. Did she marry you just to let you beat her? I won't tolerate you, so I'll write a letter of divorce quickly. You and your wife will be cut off. Which one of you? If you have paper and pen, give it to him quickly!"

Su Mo stood next to Shen Yuexi and looked dumbfounded. He stretched out his hand to pull her sleeve and said, "Sister-in-law, it's so embarrassing that so many people are watching."

"It's okay. I'm shameless today, sister-in-law, so I'll scold him." Shen Yuexi flicked her sleeves, "What kind of emperor and prince, a man who dares to beat his own wife, actually has the nerve to appear in public. If it were different. I've killed myself looking for a piece of tofu a long time ago, but I still have the nerve to come looking for it."

As she spoke, she lowered her head and pretended to hit the wall, thinking that Xiao Beiheng was arrogant and she had humiliated him so much. If he got angry and started a war between the two armies, then Su Mo would not have to go back. This was a way to provoke the general. If Xiao Beiheng was angry and angry Come up to her for a duel, and she immediately drags Su Mo back.

But she raised her head and looked at Xiao Beiheng, and found that Xiao Beiheng's face was full of sadness, but he didn't look angry at all.

"You're right, sister-in-law," Xiao Beiheng lowered his head, "I was really too much towards Momo before. Thinking about how I treated her, I feel very sad. It was indeed my fault."

Originally, if Xiao Beiheng was angry, Shen Yuexi could still continue to scold her. Now that Xiao Beiheng directly admitted his mistake, she suddenly couldn't open her mouth anymore. People are scolded because they refuse to admit their mistakes. If they never admit their mistakes, others will keep scolding them. of.

Su Mo stretched out her hand tremblingly and said: "Bei... Beiheng."

"Momo, I was wrong," Xiao Beiheng got off his mount, took two steps forward, stretched out his hand and said, "Please forgive me. My father has passed away, and my mother has ignored me. If I don't have you anymore, All I have left is nightmares."

Su Mo burst into tears and unconsciously walked over to Xiao Beiheng. Shen Yuexi hugged her and said, "Don't go there yet."

"Momo, come back to me." Xiao Beiheng stretched out his hands, "I won't hit you again. Let the past go by. No matter what I did wrong..."

Su Mo was being held by Shen Yuexi. She was afraid that she would touch Shen Yuexi's belly if she struggled, so she didn't dare to move. She just turned around and cried: "Sister-in-law, just let me go back."

Shen Yuexi didn't know what to say, so it wasn't okay to hold on to her like this.

When he was in trouble, Mei Dai's shout came from behind.
