Chapter 314 The stepping stone in the bitter drama (thirty)
"Damn it, come here!" Su Xi's foot injury was very serious. After she recovered her breath, she couldn't move. When she saw Rong Li coming, she didn't dislike him covered in blood and waved to him.
Rong Li obediently walked over and sat by the bed. Without saying anything, Su Xi hugged her, "I finally got to hug you!"
"..." Rong Li was a little helpless, but he still hugged her carefully, for fear that an accident would cause her to be injured.
Su Xi, who was hugged by her admirer, had no intention of enjoying the aftertaste. She looked at Liu'er sitting on the side and bared her teeth in a smile.
"I hugged the person you like first. Hum, I finally beat you once!"
Liu Er nodded while crying and laughing, "Yes, you win, you are the best dancer in Ruocheng!"
After receiving Liu'er's heartfelt approval, Su Xi smiled, her pale face showing a hint of rosy. Looking at Rong Li's face, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"Damn it, don't worry, I don't need you to be responsible. I only said that before to tease those barbarians."
"Okay, you can do whatever you need to do, I'm going to rest." Su Xi pushed Rong Li and said.
When Rong Li, who couldn't say a word from the beginning to the end, walked out the door, he felt uncomfortable for Su Xi's injury and helpless for her behavior of using him as a tool until this moment.
Shaking his head, Rong Li ordered the soldiers to invite the best doctors in Ruocheng and make sure to save the legs of Su Xi and Liu Er. No matter what was needed, he would find a way to get it.
As soon as Rong Li left, Miao Kejie came. Seeing the ferocious and twisted look of the feet that Su Xi and Liu Er always cherished the most, her eyes turned red.
"Miao, what are you doing here?" Su Xi rolled her eyes rudely, and when Miao Kejie wanted to say something, she waved to her to come over.
Miao Kejie obediently passed over and sat on the edge of the bed. Su Xi scratched her neck with a paw. It was neither painful nor itchy, just like a cat's fleshy paw sliding over her.
"Humph, I can't beat you once?" Su Xi smiled proudly.
Miao Kejie looked at her face that was so pale that she couldn't hold it in but still trying to smile, her nose felt sore and she said: "That's right, you beat me."
After driving Miao Kejie away as usual, Su Xi finally stopped holding on and lay on the bed, grinning in pain, "It hurts me to death!"
Liu'er's foot injury was not as serious as Su Xi's, and he could hold on for a while. Seeing her like that, he said in a dumbfounded voice: "Can't you just be quiet for a while?"
Su Xi blinked and finally became quiet. It was rare that she became a hero. It was necessary to maintain a heroic image.
The news of the great victory in Ruocheng reached the ears of the Holy Emperor, which relieved the Holy Emperor who was almost fuming with anger at a few unfilial sons. He decided to sort out the chaos in the imperial city as soon as possible and confirmed the position of the eldest prince as the heir apparent.
When Rong Li led his troops back to Ruocheng to defend against the enemy, the eldest prince and his party were still resting in Mi County. Hearing that Manzi was beaten to the point of being beaten by Ruocheng soldiers, they couldn't help but feel a little happy.
After some adjustments, the eldest prince decided to leave for Ruocheng immediately to express his condolences on behalf of his father to the soldiers who fought bloody battles.
The soldiers left by Rong Li to protect the eldest prince did not dare to stop him, so they had to cooperate with the Mi County magistrate to ensure the safety of the eldest prince during his trip.
When the eldest prince arrived in Ruocheng, Ruocheng was still sorting out the battlefield. Rong Li had already changed his clothes and was dispatching manpower at the government office to complete the post-war reconstruction work.
Hearing that the eldest prince was coming, Rong Li immediately led people out to greet him.
The eldest prince, who had a straight face and was beginning to look dignified, did not delay his thoughts on business and directly said that he was going to the wounded barracks to see the soldiers who had shed blood and sweat for the victory.
Rong Li couldn't help but take another look at the eldest prince, smiled slightly, and sent someone to take the eldest prince to the military camp.
This was probably the most low-key inspection for a prince. There were no flowers, no applause, and no trace of respect. The eldest prince just arrived at the wounded barracks without any warning to express condolences to the wounded.
The soldiers who were moved by the eldest prince's act of being so friendly to the people had initial recognition of the future prince, and were looking forward to the possible changes in Ying Dynasty when he ascended the throne.
"Aunt Liu'er, Aunt Su Xi..." Rong Tian'er lay on the bedside crying until her eyes were swollen. She had been busy with logistics and didn't know the situation on the battlefield.
When I received the news, there was another scuffle and I couldn't be impulsive. It was only now that I came to Su Xi and Liu Er. I wanted to hold back my tears, but how could I hold back when I saw their foot injuries?
Rongrui stood by the door, clenching his fists. The barbarians were so hateful. Even if their father avenged them, it would be hard to get rid of his hatred.
Su Xi touched Rong Tian'er's head. Under the care of the best doctors in Ruocheng, her injuries were stabilized, and Liu'er was able to sit up and move.
The moment she stood on the pile of charcoal, Su Xi knew what was waiting for her. It was not that she had not hesitated or regretted, but she persevered in the end.
Even though her legs were disabled and she couldn't even stand up, let alone dance, she had no regrets. Just because she had completed the most important dance in her life, that was enough for her.
Liu'er had the same idea. Even if she lost to Su Xi, she would lose without complaint and could no longer dance. She could still teach others to dance and continue the Qinglian dance.
Looking at Su Xi and Liu Er, who were equally open-minded, Rong Tianer was deeply shocked. She seemed to understand something, stopped her tears, stood in front of them, and bowed respectfully.
The same goes for Rongrui. He really admires them. They come from the mud, but they work hard to live out their own style. How can people disrespect such people?
The eldest prince also heard about Su Xi and Liu Er's story, visited them personally, and recognized their value as the future heirs of the Ying Dynasty.
No one remembers that they were born in Yancuilou and had a miserable status. They only remember the beauty of the Green Lotus Dance and the Peony Dance.
After sorting out the post-war affairs, Rong Li discussed with the eldest prince, and after consulting the Holy Spirit, decided to release the little prince back to the barbarians.
Now is not the time to completely eliminate the barbarians. It is better to push out a puppet and temporarily control the barbarians, and then completely bring them back to the Ying Dynasty when the time is right.
Thinking that the barbarians were defeated, the sixth brother was dead, and he, a prisoner, would certainly die, the little prince was escorted back to the barbarians in ignorance, and became the new king of the barbarians.
This made the little prince look in disbelief. Even though he knew that the meaning of his existence was to contain the barbarians for Yingchao, he was still a little excited.
He came to the throne so easily. I wonder how Sixth Brother Quanxia Youzhi would feel. Well, I'm afraid he would be very angry.
Thanks to the Sixth Prince paving the way for the little prince, he got rid of all his brothers and even his father, leaving him with only one direct bloodline, so the throne is extremely secure.
The barbarians had their spines broken by Ruocheng and could only survive, but the little prince could see clearly that being alive would be better than anything else.
The situation among the barbarians is stable, and the royal family of Ying Dynasty has also been sorted out. The eldest prince will be canonized as prince as soon as he returns to the imperial city, thus stabilizing the country.
Ruocheng has even restored its previous order. Looking at Ruocheng as if nothing had happened, the eldest prince couldn't help but sigh at the tenacity of the people on the border.
