Chapter 860 Raid
"Aphrodisiac incense? She is a princess and now the Sixth Prince's consort. Is she crazy?" Shen Shuyi couldn't believe that Xiao Tinglan could do such a thing.
But think about it, if she can chase him all the way to Liangzhou, there is nothing she can't do.
After all, if she were in Beijing, she would not have such a good opportunity. Moreover, Xie Jingchi was injured now, which was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Shen Shuyi pushed him away a little, and felt his pulse again: "Stop messing around, let me see if the effect of the aphrodisiac incense has worn off."
Xie Jingchi let her do as she pleased. After checking her pulse, Shen Shuyi said softly, "It looks like she's recovered."
Xie Jingchi pulled her onto his lap and said in a deep voice, "I originally solved it, but after seeing you, I feel like I didn't solve it."
Shen Shuyi's eyes were slightly round, and her ears were tinged with pink. "Can you be more serious?"
"No, I can't be serious." Xie Jingchi pinched her chin and couldn't help but kiss her again.
The recent war in Liangzhou was indeed annoying, especially after the Li clan got involved. The situation became delicate, but he was looking forward to the Li clan getting involved so that he could directly annex this tribe.
He carried Shen Shuyi to the bed, and gave her a few kisses on her neck. Xie Jingchi reached out to unbutton her clothes.
"It's still daytime!" Shen Shuyi pushed him, a little annoyed.
"I'll be gentler." Xie Jingchi interrupted her.
As the saying goes, a short separation is better than a new marriage. Shen Shuyi has now completely experienced this. After making love, Xie Jingchi asked someone to fetch water, and Shen Shuyi took a bath with a flushed face.
Xie Jingchi's clothes were half open, and he just looked at her, feeling very excited.
He had been in the palace since he was young, seen everyone's faces, experienced the cold and warmth of others, and was then sent to the State of Chen as a hostage, where he suffered humiliation. He then walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and woke up from nightmares countless times.
He never knew what it felt like to have your heart filled with someone, and what it felt like to miss someone.
It is hard to tell when it started, but he seemed to get used to searching for her among countless people. To him, she was like a dazzling ray of light in the dark life.
After taking a shower, Shen Shuyi changed into fresh clothes and checked his injuries.
The wound on his body was between his shoulder and chest, as if he had been shot by an arrow. But apart from that, he had many large and small sword wounds on his body. The more Shen Shuyi looked at him, the tighter his brows furrowed.
"You don't know any martial arts, so why are you going to the battlefield?" Shen Shuyi couldn't help feeling a little distressed as he applied medicine on him.
Xie Jingchi raised his bright red lips and said with a smile: "If I take a knife to the battlefield, I can kill people. Do you believe me?"
Hearing this, Shen Shuyi raised his eyes and looked at him. The two of them looked at each other, and no one said a word.
Believe it or not?
Of course I believe it.
A man like him certainly would have the guts to do it, but that was different from being good at martial arts. Using one's own disadvantages to take advantage of others' strengths was not a smart move.
While changing the medicine for him, Shen Shuyi told him about the recent situation in the capital and the plans of the Li clan members they met at the inn before arriving in Liangzhou.
"They are really ambitious. A small tribe dares to plot against the territory of Daqian." Xie Jingchi sneered. Obviously, he did not have a good impression of the Li tribe.
"What is the current war situation in Liangzhou?" Shen Shuyi asked.
"Yuan Xia has been attacking the city frequently. In the past few days, they launched several large-scale attacks but failed to take it down. In the past two days, they have been much more obedient." Xie Jingchi said in a cold voice.
"Those 50,000 soldiers..." Shen Shuyi wanted to ask, are those 50,000 soldiers really dead?
Xie Jingchi hooked his finger at her, his beautiful phoenix eyes were dark and his thin lips were filled with a hint of smile.
Shen Shuyi tentatively moved closer to him and put her ear against his lips. Then, a misty breath spread out, making her feel a little itchy. Shen Shuyi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she couldn't tell why. They had done more intimate things before, but she still felt uncontrollably nervous when he got closer.
"Madam, this is a military secret." Xie Jingchi's lips gently brushed her earlobe. Shen Shuyi dodged and said with a stern face: "Forget it."
She stood up to leave, but Xie Jingchi pulled her back: "Kiss me, and I'll tell you."
"Sir Xie, you are abusing your power for personal gain." Shen Shuyi looked straight at him and couldn't help but speak.
"So what?" Xie Jingchi remained calm.
Shen Shuyi couldn't do anything about him. He just felt that he was not exactly the same as in his memory.
She curled her fingertips slightly, pretended to be calm, moved closer to his lips, and kissed him gently.
Xie Jingchi raised the corners of his lips, pulled her into his arms, and whispered in her ear: "It was an ambush set by the prince. Fifty thousand troops are hiding in the mountains, waiting for the right time to severely damage Yuan Xia."
Hearing this, Shen Shuyi understood.
It was not much different from what she guessed. Shen Shuyi remembered something and said quickly, "Mo Yu created a mechanical crossbow that can fire five or ten arrows in a row. Although the number is not large, it may have miraculous effects if used properly."
"You can bring this mechanical crossbow to the prince later. In addition, Mo Yu has also invented a crossbow cart, or a crossbow cart, which is also a powerful weapon for both offense and defense. However, it may take another three to five days to deliver it to Liangzhou."
The two of them whispered a lot in bed.
Shen Shuyi had a clear understanding of the battle situation in Liangzhou.
Now that the poison in the waters has been neutralized and there are soldiers guarding the area every day, it is relatively peaceful. However, due to the trade exchanges between various countries, it is inevitable that many people from the Yuanxia and Li tribes have infiltrated Liangzhou, which makes the people in the city somewhat panicked.
*
In the afternoon, Xie Jingchi went to the camp to discuss military intelligence.
Shen Shuyi led his men out of the tent and planned to stroll around Liangzhou City.
The weather in Liangzhou is hot and windy, but because of the developed trade, the people live a pretty good life. The only drawback is the occasional wars.
Looking along the way, Shen Shuyi indeed discovered that there were quite a few people from the Yuanxia and Li clans here. However, due to the special situation at the moment, with two countries at war, the people were quite wary of people from other countries.
At this moment, suddenly a group of people started running wildly, shouting, and the vendors on the roadside packed up their things skillfully.
"Quick! Yuan Xia's army has started attacking the city again!" someone shouted. Shen Shuyi turned his head to look outside the city gate and saw smoke and dust rising.
"Let's go and take a look." Shen Shuyi led Jiuchou and his group and walked against the flow of people towards the city wall.
The Huwei Army reacted quickly. Although they had mostly been defending and not attacking during these days, once the Yuanxia army attacked the city, they quickly assembled their troops and began to defend the city.
"Who are you? It's dangerous here, please stay away!" A guard stopped several people.
Shen Shuyi showed his badge and said in a deep voice: "Get out of the way!"
"Greetings, Princess, but Princess... swords have no eyes..." The guard frowned and wanted to say something else.
Shen Shuyi said: "Just focus on the battle and don't worry about me."
