Chapter 225 What a crime
After Shen Mingjue was detained, he lost his appetite, seldom moved, was emotionally depressed, and was too frightened just now, so he vomited. However, what he was thinking at this moment was not that vomiting could prevent Knasu from humiliating and possessing him, but that the person who swallowed the note just now was not him, that person had successfully escaped.
The ground was covered with filth, and the witch doctor appeared in the princess's bedroom again, with cold sweat on his face. The new Scythian king was moody and cruel.
Kenasu looked very bad. Was he so disgusting? Being close to him made Shen Mingjue vomit? Obviously, his father and brother, the Scythians were all like this. Emotions were cultivated after marriage. Moreover, he had been good enough to Shen Mingjue. When he built this Central Plains-style palace, he had gone through so much hardship. There were almost no people in his tribe who supported him. He had never said a word to Shen Mingjue about these. Why, why did Shen Mingjue still avoid him like a snake?
The witch doctor was choosing his words and his hands were shaking. He couldn't possibly say, "Your Majesty, the princess vomited because you forced her to do so."
"You take good care of him." Knasu put on his hat, looking very hurt. He stopped making things difficult for the witch doctor and fled away.
Only when the Scythian king was really far away did the witch doctor relax. He looked at Shen Mingjue with a wry smile and said, "Drink some water first. I will persuade the king to let you go out for some fresh air."
Shen Mingjue was still immersed in the joy that he had actually spread the news. Hearing this, he nodded slowly.
"Well." The witch doctor called a few Scythians in to clean up, and left with the medicine box.
"What a sin." The witch doctor shook his head, feeling a little sorry for this "disobedient" princess.
Two flowers bloom, one branch each.
When the news reached General Xue, half of the 400,000 troops loaned by the emperor had arrived.
The person who delivered the message left in a hurry and had no idea of the bad things that Shen Mingjue experienced later.
"That palace is of Central Plains style and is easy to find. The Major General told us not to worry. Knasu has not harmed him yet," the man said. "The Major General told me that the Scythians plan to attack us in five days. The declaration of war will be sent two days in advance. New weapons are being developed, so entering from the northwest is the best way."
Xue Zhong couldn't help but tear up when he heard the news: "I'm glad my brother is okay. We can sneak in from the northwest, which is close to where my brother is."
"I still feel something is wrong," Gu Changfeng touched his chin, "Why don't we go and take a look at their weapons in advance? I always feel that if Knasu is serious this time, he may not leave any backup plan."
Deputy General Xue waved his hand and told the man to leave first. "That's true. Since Kenasu has detained Juer, he is very likely to attack the Central Plains in one fell swoop. Moreover, he has always been very hostile to you, Your Majesty. Even if we already know their specific time, the second situation may occur. The news that Juer knows may also be what Kenasu wants us to know."
"Well," Gu Changfeng said, "we need to send someone to get information and see how their weapons are made, and also to see if there is anything strange about them."
Xue Zhong: "Yes, we still need to be fully prepared. Even if we have the advantage in numbers in this battle, we can't be careless. How about I go this time?"
General Xue was Xue Zhong's righteous husband after all, so he was a little anxious: "No."
Xue Zhong smiled and said, "It's okay, Dad. Even if I'm caught, my brother will protect me. We can't let the prince go, right? Last time, Kenasu was about to attack the prince. If he's discovered this time, won't he be unable to return?"
Gu Changfeng remembered the last time he was nearly boiled alive, and suddenly felt cold sweat running down his back.
"But Juer can't protect himself. The death of Shen...his death last time shows that Kenasu is different from us. He has no feelings for his relatives. If you are really discovered, Kenasu will definitely kill you!"
General Xue regretted it very much. If he had not brought Gu Changfeng back first, if he had been there too, how could Shen Furong be poisoned again!
"Father..." Xue Zhong said hesitantly, "Kenasu sent the news that she wanted to marry my brother, so she must not want to see my brother sad, so I will be fine. Besides, the messenger just said that they are busy developing new weapons recently. They chose to attack in five days because we are in mourning during this period, so we may not expect anyone to come to investigate the enemy situation."
"Father, you have to believe me. I'm not some guy who gets distracted during a battle. I won't be discovered that easily."
Gu Changfeng: “…”
General Xue finally agreed.
