As soon as I packed up my things, Miaoyan got out of bed. She came over and greeted me: "Mom, it's early."

While talking, he looked at the empty window.

I looked back at her with a smile and nodded, "Good morning." As soon as I finished speaking, Kuoer walked into the room with a few maids and came to serve us to get up and wash. Miaoyan looked out the door again. I knew she was worried about something and said calmly, "Don't worry, Miaoyan, it's okay."

Hearing me say this, she nodded softly.

Although I knew it was okay, everyone must have been worried all night last night. Kua'er's eyes were also red, and the other maids even yawned, and they hadn't slept all night. Miaoyan looked up at them, and they were so scared that they knelt down: "Your Highness, Princess."

Miaoyan said, "How could I blame you for this? But don't be afraid. My father is here, and he will let someone protect us."

"yes……"

I saw that although she was mature, she was still a little adult. I couldn't help but smile and brought a bowl of steaming chicken porridge to me. I turned around and looked at her and said, "When did the Queen sleep?"

Kou'er said: "I kept chanting Buddha's name until the morning and just went to bed."

"Let the kitchen prepare some hot porridge and send it to her at any time."

"I have already given the order."

"Well, that's good."

I didn't ask how the emperor was doing. I thought that after a night of fighting, Zhang Ziyu and the others would definitely report the results of the battle first. Of course, they were successful in defending the city, but they just didn't know what the casualties were.

Miaoyan was eating in big mouthfuls. I turned around and looked at her and said softly: "Don't eat so urgently."

Miaoyan said: "I want to finish the meal quickly, and then go to the city gate to take a look and help."

Kuoer opened his eyes slightly: "Your Highness the Princess is going to go?"

"Of course I'm going."

"But there - I'm afraid it won't be like before."

"So what, I'm not afraid of it."

Looking at Miaoyan's appearance as if she was taken for granted, Kou'er looked at me with some concern. I nodded faintly. Miaoyan had experienced much more than any princess and daughters born in the imperial city and raised in the boudoir. I also believe that experiencing some things will make her stronger and stronger.

Seeing that I was the same, Kou'er stopped saying anything more.

After a while, after breakfast, Miaoyan hurriedly pulled out a bag from the cabinet, which contained some wound medicines and bandages she had prepared. Just as we were about to go out, Eunuch Yu came to pass the message, saying that Pei Yuanhao ordered that the people in the official office could be dispatched at will, so I went to collect dozens of people. Under the pretext of ensuring that normal affairs in the official office would not be affected, I asked Kuoer to take them with me to go with me.

Before the carriage reached the city gate, I heard a moaning and mourning sound.

Miaoyan hurriedly stood up, lifted the curtain and looked out.

Just one glance, I heard her crying softly.

I didn't look out, but I could hear the screams of the maids who came with us. Some people couldn't even bear to look at it. After walking a while, I felt that it was still a distance from the city gate, but the coachman had already said in front: "Miss Yan, Your Highness, the carriage may not be able to get through."

And those moans were already close.

I said, "Then don't move forward, let's go."

"yes."

The carriage stopped, and Kuaer and others hurriedly helped Miaoyan and me out of the car.

The first step was to step on a pool of blood on the ground.

I slowly walked out from behind the carriage, and what I saw was a mess. From the city gate to the road under our feet, countless wounded soldiers were lying on the ground moaning and waiting for treatment. The ground was stained with blood from the blood flowing from their wounds, as if the city was bleeding.

And the wound is on the city tower in front.

I walked forward step by step with Miaoyan. She didn't say a word along the way, but just looked at the wounded soldiers around her silently. When she arrived at the city gate, she saw clearly that there were several huge wooden boards on the tall city gate, and two thick wooden pillars were pressed on it. It should be that the city gate was broken last night. They fought hard to defend the place and are now repairing the city gate.

The ground was covered with scattered wood chips and blood.

On the city tower, some people were cleaning the battlefield, washing the ground with wooden barrels of water, and blood-red sewage flowed down the stone steps, and a strong smell of blood rushed towards us.

You can even see that some obvious gaps in the battlements of the city walls should have been left when siege.

I can't imagine what I experienced here last night.

We didn't say anything, and a few fragile and timid maids couldn't help but shed tears when they saw these situations.

At this moment, a sudden chaos came from the side, mixed with a man's painful shout. When he turned around, he saw that a doctor was treating a wounded soldier. The man's leg was cut off and he needed to sew the wound. He kept roaring and struggling with pain. The person next to him could hardly hold him back.

Miaoyan hurriedly said, "I'll go over and help!"

Kou'er looked at her running over with some concern, and then looked back at me: "Miss Yan, Princess Princess, she--"

I said calmly: "You go over and help, just look at her by the way. I know that she is strong enough for my daughter."

Kuo'er glanced at me, nodded, turned around and ran over with Miaoyan.

For the remaining maids, I told some of them to help boil medicine, some of them to help clean the battlefield, and I brought some soldiers who could treat wounds to help treat the wounds.

This battle was even more tragic than the sneak attack that night before.

I don't know how many times they have repelled the attacking soldiers, but it can be seen from the broken weapons cleaned from the city towers and the arrows on the roofs of surrounding houses. It is really not easy for Shengjing's men to be very fierce in this siege.

Just as I was cleaning the wounds for a wounded soldier, I heard a few soldiers who were sitting in an alley ahead waiting for treatment whispering something-

"I really don't know what will happen in the future."

"Yes, look at last night..."

"I heard that there are still troops not here. When they are all here, I'm afraid-"

Then, a sigh was heard.

Sometimes, pain and moans caused by pain will not make people feel helpless, but a sigh is enough to lose all courage and strength. Although I can't see what the person there looks like, I may feel that a strong sense of frustration and frustration is over everyone's head.

I don’t know how long it took, someone whispered: “Even the capital is lost. How long can a small Linfen city last?”

"I think, at most, I can just hold on until the emperor leaves."

"Oh? Why?"

"Do you think the emperor will stay in Linfen forever?"

That sentence made everyone feel slightly nervous, and someone immediately asked, "Isn't it?"

"Don't be too naive. Look at Linfen's current appearance. If you continue to be besieged and have a few more troops, I'm afraid that Linfen City will be flattened, so how can it still be defended?"

"Then, if the emperor didn't stay in Linfen, where would he go?"

"You still can't understand. The emperor went from the capital to Taiyuan, then to Linfen, and walked southwest and then, where should he go?"

"... Could it be that he wants to enter Guanzhong?"

"I don't think Guanzhong can be defended."

"Is it--"

Immediately, everyone's breath became tense.

My brows also frowned slightly. At this time, I had already helped the soldier clean his wound. I asked him to lie down and not move. I slowly walked towards the entrance of the alley, holding my breath and listening to the whispers coming from it.

"If you want to say that, it seems that Nishikawa has always been-"

"There are many talented people and strangers in Xichuan."

"Hey, I've heard of this. I have a brother who works in the yamen. He said that there was a person around the emperor who had been urging the emperor not to go to Linfen and go directly to Xichuan to avoid this war. But the emperor refused to listen and drove the people away..."

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Who is that person?"

"I heard it seems--"

The man stopped halfway through his words, and then a burst of rapid footsteps rang out. I hurried over and saw several soldiers lying in the alley, all with a little astonishment. Two of them were slightly injured and stood up quickly: "Miss Yan."

When I accompanied Chang Qing to the city gate to deal with that accident, many people recognized me. I waved my hands lightly and looked at the other end of the alley, and couldn't see anything. I said softly: "You--"

I wanted to ask them, but as soon as the words were spoken, the soldiers immediately showed a vigilant look.

I stopped myself, looked at them nervously, and then said softly: "Does your injuries matter? Come here, I'll deal with you."

The people immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "No need."

"Yes, our injuries are not serious, Miss Yan doesn't have to worry about us."

"Thank you."

I glanced at them, nodded, and then turned around and left.

What they said just now is obviously a question of the emperor. If it is in ordinary times, of course it is to be a crime of deceiving the emperor. However, in this special period, anyone has a little bit of such emotions and must turn a blind eye. If I have to study it in depth, it will cause even worse effects.

After all, these people are all fighting in blood.

But, I couldn't help but look back—

Just now, someone seemed to be consciously mentioning Qinghan again.
