Yu Haitang was so straightforward, which made Baili Ai surprised. Few people could tell his true age, so it seemed that Yu Haitang was perspicacious.
Sima Ray immediately stepped forward and reported the latest situation to Yu Haitang anxiously, "I don’t know why Leng Changxi acted so weirdly this time. He sent picked troops to attack our military camp, but they didn't burn our army provisions or hurt our soldiers. Instead, they blew up the pit where the dead were buried. The soldiers and the people who died from the construction of the water camp were buried there. How it would benefit him?"
Sima Ray frowned and wondered, but Yu Haitang just smiled slightly and teased the lion-faced monkey on his shoulders, "Try to win popular support? He is still green, unless he has already arranged his people into those stupid civilians. Otherwise, it is just in vain."
Baili Ai was just 28 years old, and Sima Ray and Leng Changxi both knew that. When he app
As ships got closer, Leng Changxi and Sima Ray could see each other’s looks more clearly. Leng Changxi’s white armor looked shining and stunning while the golden armor of Sima Ray in the distance was opulent and luxurious."Fishing boats?" Sima Ray snorted with disdain. "After all these, I thought he had come up with a masterstroke. Well, it now seems not alarming at all."In Sima Ray’s view, Leng Changxi was fighting a hopeless battle. Did he really think that he could cross the Sui River with several broken fishing boats? Tilting his head, Sima Ray didn't hurry to order soldiers down to prepare cannons but just looked at those fishing boats in the river that seemed overwhelming as if he was watching a show.Yu Haitang lowered his head to take a sip of tea and said, "Your Royal Highness, it’s better not to underestimate him.""Maybe I am not wrong." Thinking of that Leng Changxi, the God of War, should borrow fishing boats to cros
"How arrogant you are," Yu Haitang said while smiling at Leng Changxi. For him, it seemed more interesting to tame Leng Changxi who was as wild as a wolf, than usurp the throne with Sima Ray, an ambitious prince."Leng Changxi, you should plot against me in secret. How insidious you are!" Sima Ray wielded his sword whose shine flashed like a silver flower and then disappeared quickly."An eye for an eye," Leng Changxi said while taking a glance at Sima Ray. "I will treat a gentleman with due respect. But for villains, I don't think I should do so."Leng Changxi jumped off the horse and the black-iron spear in his hand was awe-inspiring, while Sima Ray wielded his sword rapidly. They two hadn't fought with each other before. A royal member as he was, Sima Ray didn't stop practicing martial arts. This fight was a matter of prestige. He ordered all soldiers to step back and not to help him.The sword and the spear clanged. After dozen
Hearing that something was wrong there, Sima Ray hurried over. When he arrived, there had been many people encircling the scene."What are you standing here for? Isn't there a group of wild wolves at the east of the camp? If you have so much spare time, you'd better come here to drive off the wolves for me," After saying that, Sima Ray lifted the curtain and came in. The white curtain was pulled to the other side, under which Xu Ji was as skinny as a pile of dried bones. His skin was as thin as a layer of kite paper, which could be broken by a single poke. His facial features were deeply sunken, which could barely show his original graceful, god-like appearance. Even when Xu Ji was seriously ill, his appearance was still as gentle as jade due to Baili Ai's meticulous care, but now...Seeing Xu Ji lying on the bed like a terrifying skeleton, Sima Ray felt disgusting in his heart. At that time, a wheelchair was pushed slowly from outside the bed curtain. It w
Hearing that Leng Changxi only recruited more than half of the number of people coming for conscription, Sima Ray began to calculate in his heart. The left people must be the best among them. Therefore, he couldn't help but ask the spies to find out more. However, when he knew that there were even several Kunlun slaves, he laughed immediately."Is he really stupid?" Sima Ray was holding a golden bottle of wine in his hand. Although he was losing, he still didn't forget to enjoy, "Kunlun slaves are the undomesticated southern barbarians. They don't understand our words. They can't speak, and they won't be disciplined. What's wrong with Leng Changxi? Is he eager for quick success so he recruits such inferior people into his army?""It remains unknown who is the fool," a cold sentence rang outside Sima Ray's camp. A figure as tall as half a person, which sat on the chair, was set against the white camp curtain. Just one glance at it made one feel terrified.
With blood over her body, the person lying on a straw mat was near death. Baili Ai rushed to here in a hurry and felt her pulse subconsciously. Without a minute, he nodded, “Excessive loss of blood, it’s hard to survive.”“Then,” Sima Ray replied indifferently, “Throw her anywhere as you like rather than here taking up other’s place.” In this woman he only wanted to play with, he absolutely lost all his interest.“Your Royal Highness,” Shangguan Yuen called him faintly, “I have something for you.” Her bloody hands trembled. Inside lay a white handkerchief. She smiled bitterly, “You gave it to me before.” Sima Ray pushed her hands away with dislike. The cloth fell to the ground. After that, a small topographic map with several routes marked red dropped out from it.Out of curiosity, Sima Ray picked it up and turned to glance at Baili Ai. Yu Haitang fell behind far away. It was not sure whether he caught this tiny detail.“Come in an
The problem, according to Qin Yunuan, was the sleeping Sima Ray definitely. She touched his pulse and discovered that though it was faint and hard to perceive, Sima Ray's internal organs, muscles and vessels were all in operation."It's like hibernation." For the sake of saving energy, his body only supplies the heart with sufficient one. Qin Yunuan watched his pale face and said, "His breath and pulse beat are tuned to body's extreme. He's seemingly dead, like a turtle in hibernation. No sensation, cannot hear, cannot feel the temperature, though I'm unwilling to recognize, he was still alive.""I'd rather die than live like this." Leng Changxi bent to scan Sima Ray closer. He walked around him, stared at his eyes, and suddenly laughed out, "He isn't that annoying when he shut his mouth up."Qin Yunuan was shocked. She coughed to remind Leng Changxi that Sima Ray was still here."Any problem?" Leng Changxi shrugged. He showed a ch
Voice faded. The sudden chill around his neck failed the rogue to say anything. A dagger directly cut into the wall next to him, only a li away. The person sat in the carriage in the alley far with genuine energy, "Cannot compare with the past. But to cope with such a guy like you, I use an arm is more than enough. I will count to ten. Just make your disappearance on your own."After he finished his word, the rogue disappeared. Prince Ning, Leng Zhongxiao leaned forward out of the carriage to stare at the young man passed out around the corner of the alley."Why did Your Highness save the person of Shangguan Family? If they had not meddled with these things out of thin air, Your Highness wouldn't break your arm to prove your innocence." The old servant felt unfair obviously. He didn't understand why Prince Ning saved the concubine's child of Shangguan Family. The day Shangguan Family was confiscated, all their hereditary title of nobility and feats went to
Worrying about things that might happen increased their chances of happening.They heard the fast footsteps of Leng Wu who kept vigil outside. Hearing that Maner was missing, he directly walked back into the tent.Just when stepping into the tent, Leng Wu still held the belief that Maner wasn't missing. Because he was responsible for guarding the military camp, he knew it would be so hard for one to sneak into the camp without being found. Maybe they got the wrong message.But seeing Qin Yunuan was as freezing as a rock that had been stored in the icehouse for several days, Leng Wu also felt cold inside."Maner..." Leng Wu murmured, and he hesitated to ask Maner's whereabouts."I'm sorry." Qin Yunuan was very guilty and looked at the letter on the table. "Don't worry. I will go to the woods tomorrow to take Maner back.""No, you can't!" Leng Changxi cut in. He knew what Sima Ray wanted to do to Qin Yunuan,
