Helian Mochuan smiled softly, reached out and slowly patted Ning Wan's back, and spoke softly until Ning Wan slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Ning Wan had not slept a wink for several days and nights. Ning Wan was really tired, so she fell into a deep sleep. Helian Mochuan looked at her quietly for two hours.
It wasn't until Su Feng's voice came from outside that Helian Mochuan got up and got into a wheelchair and came outside the tent.
"Your Majesty, Medical Officer Du's method has worked, and the poisonous smoke of Qianji Poison has dispersed!"
Helian Mochuan raised his eyebrows, turned around, glanced at the Chinese army's tent, and said: "Prepare your horses, I will enter the city in person!"
However, Su Feng stood still and advised: "No, Your Majesty, I'll leave this matter to my subordinates. How can you risk it yourself?"
Helian Mochuan insisted on going in person, so Su Cheng had no choice but to get a chariot.
"The regent is here, guarding Yanmen Pass, why don't you open the city gate quickly!" Su Cheng shouted loudly at the city gate, but there was still silence inside, and not even a person could be seen!
Su Cheng called out several times, but no one responded. This situation was really weird.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates are going to climb up the city wall and have a look!"
With Helian Mochuan's approval, Su Feng took off his armor and quickly climbed up the city wall like a flying swallow. However, before he could clearly see the situation in the city, suddenly, a rain of arrows shot towards him, which made Su Feng a little nervous.
Unable to dodge.
"I am General Dayan, the right envoy of the Golden Scale Guard Su Feng. I am not an enemy. Please stop!"
Su Cheng shouted loudly several times. Someone heard him and hurriedly climbed up the city wall. They were also stunned when they saw Su Feng.
"Su Feng, is it really you?"
Su Feng heard the sound and looked up. Isn't this the Ninth Prince He Lianfeng?
"Your Highness Ninth Prince, you have appeared! The regent is outside, please open the city gate quickly!"
Hearing that Helian Mochuan was outside, He Lianfeng quickly asked someone to open the city gate. He Lianfeng and Su Feng walked out and walked to Helian Mochuan together.
"Welcoming ministers respectfully welcome the regent!"
The officers and soldiers in the city knelt on the ground. Helian Mochuan was sitting on the carriage with a serious look on his face.
"Xiaojiu, come here and reply!"
Helianfeng passed over obediently, and then Helian Mochuan asked: "Are there any casualties among the people in the city?"
"Uncle Qi, there are some casualties, but not many!"
Helian Mochuan looked at him and his face darkened: "How much is not more?"
"Three thousand soldiers were lost, but more than a hundred civilians were killed!"
He Lianfeng originally came to Yanmen Pass with 20,000 people. Including the defenders of Yanmen Pass, there were about 25,000 troops. Now the loss was 3,000. The casualties were indeed not heavy.
But Helian Mochuan always felt that there seemed to be something extraordinary in it.
"Who set up the Thousand Poison Formation outside the city wall?"
Speaking of this, He Lianfeng became cold and asked: "What is the Thousand Poison Array? We just followed the instructions and spread some smoke. It is not highly poisonous!"
Helian Mochuan raised his eyebrows. He looked at Helianfeng carefully. This boy didn't look like he was lying. Then he looked deeply into the city. It seemed that the strange thing was the noble man in the city.
.
"Who taught you how to arrange smoke?" Helian Mochuan asked.
"She is a good friend of my nephew. She is from Shu, so..."
"The princess of Shu, Princess Qianqian?"
Seeing that Helian Mochuan already knew the identity of the other party, Helianfeng nodded and admitted, but Helian Mochuan's expression became extremely stern.
"Su Feng, the army is on standby and will not enter the city for the time being!"
"yes!"
Su Feng received the order and passed it on. Then he followed Helian Mochuan into Yanmen Pass. The scene inside was slightly different from what they thought.
Inside Yanmen Pass, it looks like it has not experienced war, and the people are not in rags or hungry. It can be seen that Helianfeng has managed it well and the entire city is intact.
When they arrived at the prefect's residence, the officials at Yanmen Pass all knelt on the ground to pay tribute to the regent. However, Helian Mochuan said nothing and only read the dispatches sent from various places in the prefect's residence.
"When did you lose contact with the outside world?" Helian Mochuan asked.
"It was when the Shu people besieged the city, about a month ago!"
Helian Mochuan read the express reports, and found that they were indeed from a month ago, and there was not one recent one. In other words, the entire Yanmen Pass had been isolated from the world for more than a month.
"Have you ever sent someone out to report the news?"
Regarding this matter, He Lianfeng replied: "Yes, Mr. Du took people out of the city a few days ago, preparing to go to Luzhou City to report news, but no news has come back yet!"
Mentioning Mr. Du, Helian Mochuan's expression changed and he said coldly: "Do you know that because of your recklessness, Mr. Du and the people who followed him out of the city all lost their lives in vain?"
Helianfeng was stunned for a moment and asked in disbelief: "What did the emperor say? Mr. Du...is dead?"
Helian Mochuan nodded, and Helian Feng's expression turned bad.
"That's Mr. Du, how could he die?" Several officials were also very shocked.
Helian Mochuan asked again: "Where is the princess of Shu? Bring her to see my king!"
