Seeing that Feng Zhiyao still wanted to say something, Ye Li waved her hand and said, "There's no need to say anymore. Unless you plan to go against your superior and knock me out. But if you really do that, I will come back on my own. Feng San, if I escape from this battle, I will not feel at peace for the rest of my life. "Feng Zhiyao was silent for a while before he finally sighed and said," I understand. But … Wangfei, please take care of yourself. "
Ye Li smiled and said, "Of course, there are still people waiting for me to go back."
Unable to persuade Ye Li, Feng Zhiyao could only leave helplessly. He was very clear that what Ye Li said was very likely to become reality. The current Lei Zhenting had no hope of turning the tables. Even if they broke into Feihong Pass, when Mo Xiuyao's army arrived, they would still be quickly eliminated. Therefore, Lei Zhenting was very likely to stake everything on one throw and wreak havoc in Feihong Pass. As the Mohist army, they could not watch as the mountains and rivers they protected turned into rivers of blood. Therefore, they could only choose to fight and fight with the Xiling Army to the last soldier. They had to delay as much time as possible so that Mo Xiuyao and his army could arrive on time.
"Princess Ding is not willing to leave?" Under the moonlight, Han Mingyue looked handsome. The faint moonlight scattered on his body, adding a different kind of tranquility. Feng Zhiyao sighed and shrugged, "Didn't you already guess?"
Han Mingyue nodded and said, "If Princess Ding is willing to leave at this time, she would not be Princess Ding. But Xiuyao, he really is not worried. " Mo Xiuyao only sent a letter back. How could he be so sure that Ye Li would do as he said? Feng Zhiyao smiled bitterly and said, "Didn't Prince think that the little heir is still at Feihong Pass? Even if it's not for herself, Princess Consort will leave Feihong Pass for the Little Heir. "
Han Mingyue smiled and said, "Unfortunately, he doesn't know that Princess Ding will send the Little Heir away in advance."
"Isn't that so?" Feng Zhiyao frowned worriedly. He looked at Han Mingyue and asked, "Why aren't you leaving?" Han Mingyue smiled indifferently and said, "I'm all alone in this world. Isn't it the same wherever I go?"
"Tomorrow … I'll leave the princess's safety to you," Feng Zhiyao said solemnly. Han Mingyue raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you trust me?" Feng Zhiyao raised his eyebrows and rolled his eyes at him, saying, "If I don't trust you, why would I talk nonsense with you?" Han Mingyue nodded solemnly and said, "I trust you."
"Thank you."
"Princess Consort." In the study, Qin Feng and Lin Han stood in front of the desk and said in a low voice. Both of them were injured. Qin Feng's left shoulder was still wrapped in white cloth. Lin Han didn't have any external injuries, but his pale face showed that he wasn't completely unharmed. Ye Li put down her brush and looked at the two with a frown, saying, "Why aren't you going to rest?"
Qin Feng said in a low voice, "This subordinate requests to accompany Princess Consort to battle tomorrow."
Lin Han followed and said, "This subordinate also wishes to."
"Nonsense!" Ye Li coldly reprimanded, "If you're injured, then go and recover. Do you think that you have more lives than others, or that the world won't turn without you?"
Qin Feng and Lin Han looked at each other. Qin Feng stepped forward and said, "This subordinate requests Princess Consort's permission. This is not only the request of the two of us, but also the request of the hundred or so Qi Lin brothers who have just returned."
Ye Li sneered and asked, "And then? You drag your injured bodies to the battlefield, and then let Qi Lin be exterminated? The order was given by me. Even if you want to be buried with them, it's not your turn! "
"This subordinate doesn't dare!" Qin Feng and Lin Han hurriedly knelt down.
Ye Li looked at the two quietly. After a while, she sighed faintly and said, "Get up. I understand how you feel … but I hope that you also understand. The Qi Lin brothers who have sacrificed themselves definitely don't want to see you die with them. Instead, they hope that you and all the other survivors can live well and live with them. "
Ye Li really understood how they felt. The relationship between the Qi Lin soldiers was deeper than that between the Mohist army and the Black Cloud Cavalry. They were all elites selected from various armies. Almost all of them had experienced from the beginning that they didn't see eye to eye with each other. Later on, they slowly worked together. They went through hellish training together. They carried out all kinds of difficult missions together many times. It was true that they lived and died together. This time, they had sacrificed nearly ninety percent of their possessions. Those who survived would not feel the so-called feeling of surviving a calamity, nor would they feel as if they had escaped death. Most of them … would only blame themselves for being alive. They would only feel guilty.
Ye Li had seen a lot of examples like this. Many soldiers had experienced cruel battles. They didn't die under the enemy's swords and spears. In the end, they ended their own lives.
"Princess …" Qin Feng and Lin Han's eyes were a little red. These Qi Lin soldiers were carefully selected and personally trained by them. For them, these soldiers were more like their brothers, students, and nephews. Seeing so many people die in front of them, but they couldn't do anything about it. This kind of pain was enough to make them doubt the meaning of their existence.
Ye Li stood up and looked at the two seriously, "Go back and tell them that as long as I'm alive, I will personally bring Lei Zhenting's head back to pay tribute to the dead soldiers. But … I hope that they will all live well and continue Qi Lin. "
"We obey!" Qin Feng and Lin Han stood up and said. After saying that, Qin Feng hesitated and said, "But I still want to follow you into battle. I'm not only the commander of Qi Lin, I'm also your bodyguard. As long as I haven't died in battle, I must stay by Princess' side and protect Princess' safety. "
"This subordinate also has the same intention. This subordinate is a secret guard of Ding Palace. The purpose of a secret guard's existence is to protect Princess' safety. May Princess allow it."
Ye Li looked at them awkwardly. Lin Han said, "Princess, don't worry. My injury is not a problem." Qin Feng nodded and said, "It's not a problem. It's just a flesh wound."
The study was silent for a long time. Then Ye Li looked up and glanced at the two of them, "Since you know that there will be a tough battle tomorrow, go back and rest!"
"Yes, we will leave!" The two of them were overjoyed. They quickly bowed to Ye Li and left.
Sure enough, before the sun rose the next day, the sound of the Xiling Army entering the palace could be heard from outside. Ye Li led Yuan Pei and the others to the city gate tower. Before the sun rose, they saw the Xiling Army below the city gate in a black mass. They hadn't even started fighting yet, but they could already feel the overwhelming murderous aura and desire to fight. They didn't know what Lei Zhenting had done. After yesterday's battle, the Xiling Army's morale should have been low. But now, they were full of murderous aura.
"Xiling Jhennam Of Gojoseon, Lei Zhenting requests to see Princess Ding." Under the city gate tower, Lei Zhenting didn't hide at the back of the army this time. Instead, he rode his horse and stood at the front. He looked up at the people on the city gate tower. Even the bodyguards he usually had with him were nowhere to be seen. It was as if Lei Zhenting didn't care about his life at all. Even if the Mohist army on the city gate tower suddenly shot arrows at him, he didn't care.
