Long Fei Ye clearly heard the conversation between Han Yunxi and Granny Zhao, but he still didn't mention anything about Baili and his daughter when he entered the room.
He didn't know what Han Yunxi was thinking about this matter. Her eyes flashed with a touch of complexity, but she didn't ask much.
She sat and couldn't move. He squatted down in front of her and checked her injury. "How is it? Does it still hurt? "
"It doesn't hurt. Knock it!" Han Yunxi knocked on the wooden plank clamped on her leg. It really didn't hurt at all.
Even if it didn't hurt, Long Fei Ye couldn't bear to knock it. He called for dinner, tidied up the booklets, washed his hands, and changed into casual clothes. Han Yunxi sat and watched him work. The corners of her mouth curled up. She didn't know that she was blissful.
No matter what Long Fei Ye did, it was pleasing to the eye. It was said that admiring handsome men was good for the body and mind. Han Yunxi felt that this was very reasonable.
After Long Fei Ye was done with his work, he brought water to Han Yunxi to wash her hands. Han Yunxi didn't say anything. Looking at him bending down seriously, she hoped that she could draw this scene and freeze it in a painting until the end of time. At this moment, they were an ordinary couple. They didn't need to worry about national affairs. They only needed to worry about their daily lives, washing their hands, and eating.
"Long Fei Ye …"
"Hmm?"
"How did I meet you? How did I meet you? "
Long Fei Ye glanced at her and didn't answer.
"Long Fei Ye …"
"Hmm?"
"How did we meet?"
Long Fei Ye still didn't answer. He wiped her hands clean. Han Yunxi looked up at him tenderly. "Long Fei Ye, I think …"
Long Fei Ye covered her eyes with his big hand. "What nonsense are you thinking? Get ready to eat."
"I'm not thinking nonsense. I want to …"
"Eat!" He interrupted her. He was naturally cold. If it wasn't for his strong feelings, he wouldn't discuss such tender and sweet feelings with Han Yunxi. He avoided Han Yunxi's tender gaze and seemed uncomfortable.
Han Yunxi saw him avoiding her and suddenly laughed. "Long Fei Ye, I'm thinking that my hands aren't crippled. Why are you washing my hands?"
Long Fei Ye looked over and was obviously stunned. Han Yunxi saw Long Fei Ye's awkward look for the first time. She couldn't help but laugh.
He Yunxi's face. of course.. of the water Yunxi's face. He Yunxi's's face. Han's' dodged immediately.
Long Feiye simply splashed her with water. With her legs injured, there was no way she could escape. She looked over. "Okay, okay. I'm just kidding!"
Long Feiye was solemn and serious. He abruptly kicked up another wave of water, drenching Han Yunxi's clothes completely. Han Yunxi didn't hide anymore, but gave him a provoking look of her own.
The two of them confronted each other seriously. Long Fei Ye narrowed his eyes slowly. He pressed the tip of his tongue against the corner of his mouth. Han Yunxi didn't want to be outdone. She lifted her chin and looked at him disdainfully.
Long Fei Ye leaned forward and placed his hands on both sides of her. He looked at her coldly. If it were anyone else, they would have fainted. Han Yunxi even glared at him as a warning.
Long Fei Ye ignored her warning and lowered his head slowly. He looked like he was going to bite her. Han Yunxi stopped him and pointed at her calf sternly. She waved her hand like a high and mighty queen.
In the silence, Long Fei Ye couldn't help but laugh. Han Yunxi laughed too. She looked like a villain who had succeeded.
Unexpectedly, Long Fei Ye suddenly leaned forward again with a threatening look. Han Yunxi put her hands on his sturdy chest and warned, "Don't bully a disabled person!"
She was injured. No matter how much trouble she caused, Long Fei Ye would have to give in to her!
"You can … find a different kind of bullying," Long Feiye murmured in a low voice, his hot breath brushing against her ear. Han Yunxi couldn't help but shiver.
Long Fei Ye's lips were already teasing her sensitive nerves. Oh my god, this guy must be crazy.
She pushed him away hurriedly. "No!"
He lowered his voice even more. "Be good. Don't move."
She would be good and stay still. He would serve her.
Han Yunxi's face turned red. How could she do that! She couldn't imagine.
Just as Long Fei Ye was about to take off her wet clothes, Xu Donglin's report came from outside the door. "Your Highness, the Young General requests an audience!"
Both of them were stunned. Han Yunxi immediately burst into laughter. A trace of displeasure flitted across Long Fei Ye's eyes, but he quickly got up.
After Han Yunxi changed into clean clothes, Long Fei Ye's face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water. Han Yunxi couldn't stop laughing.
Han Yunxi knew that no matter how unhappy Long Fei Ye was, he still wanted to see the Young General. They were leaving tomorrow, but Long Fei Ye still hadn't dealt with Baili Yuanlong. He was clearly waiting for someone to plead for leniency!
It had been a whole day. The person should be here by now.
This Young General was none other than Baili Yuanlong's most outstanding son, his third son, Baili Yuqi. He was the one who had led troops to surround Fishery Island. His calmness in the face of the poisonous fog had left a deep impression on Han Yunxi.
Baili Yuqi knelt down as soon as he entered. "Your Highness, this general begs for forgiveness on behalf of my father! Father disobeyed a military order and deserves a thousand deaths. This general begs for Your Highness to spare my father's life! "
Long Fei Ye ate his dinner with a gloomy face and ignored him.
Seeing that His Highness wasn't speaking, Baili Yuqi felt uneasy. "Your Highness, the war is imminent. The army can't be without a general! My father already knows his wrongs. Your Highness, please consider … "
Long Fei Ye didn't seem to like the word 'consider'. He raised a hand to stop him and said Coldly, "Han Yunxi was the one who dealt with the snake disaster. Let's see what she thinks about this matter."
Baili Yuqi was shocked. His face was full of disbelief, and the resentment that had long been hidden gradually surfaced in his eyes. He finally looked straight at Han Yunxi.
Han Yunxi also didn't expect this. She had planned to eat while watching a good show. Who knew that Long Fei Ye would actually throw a hot potato at her?
From a personal point of view, she didn't want to see pig-like teammates like Baili Yuanlong and Baili Mingxiang anymore. However, she couldn't look at this problem from a personal point of view. This father and daughter pair's identities were too special.
In terms of 'transgressions', this father and daughter pair had committed the crime of disobeying a military order. Long Fei Ye was the monarch, and the monarch was in the army, so the monarch's orders were military orders. Regardless of whether it was a monarch's order or a military order, anyone who violated it would be killed without mercy.
In terms of merit, Baili Yuanlong had risked his life to fight for her. Long Fei Ye and Baili Mingxiang had successfully called for reinforcements in the time it took to brew a cup of tea.
Whether there were more 'merits' or 'transgressions', and whether merits could offset demerits, all depended on a single sentence from Long Fei Ye as the master.
Long Fei Ye asked her what she thought, so she had to look at this problem from Long Fei Ye's point of view.
Baili Yuanlong was the head of the Mermaid Clan and the East Qin Great General. In terms of military affairs, he was Long Fei Ye's right-hand man and the most senior figure in the East Qin camp. If they killed Baili Yuanlong at this juncture, or stripped him of his Great General rank, the impact would be great. It would shake the army's morale and cause the Mermaid Clan's dissatisfaction. Moreover, they couldn't find a suitable candidate to completely replace Baili Yuanlong in the East Qin camp. In the end, this young general in front of them was still a bit immature.
Dismissing Baili Yuanlong would be a momentary pleasure, a sign of irresponsibility to the East Qin army. After all, Baili Yuanlong's violation of military orders was all because of her, the 'Western Qin Princess', and not because of other military matters. In other matters, Baili Yuanlong was absolutely obedient to Long Fei Ye.
In fact, Baili Yuanlong's stubbornness and suspicion of her, the 'Western Qin Princess', was actually a sign of his duty in a certain sense. Although Han Yunxi was angry, she also felt a bit of admiration.
How could a soldier who had lived and fought for revenge all his life forget his hatred so easily? Trust the enemy?
Han Yunxi knew that Baili Yuanlong couldn't be dismissed, and she had long since seen that Long Fei Ye had no intention of dismissing Baili Yuanlong. This was because if Long Fei Ye wanted to dismiss Baili Yuanlong, Long Fei Ye wouldn't have remained silent when they left the snake cave. Instead, he would've had the Shadow Guard stop pouring true energy into Baili Yuanlong. He didn't personally save him, and he didn't stop the Shadow Guard from doing so either!
If Baili Mingxiang was as smart as before, she would've definitely seen through this.
Han Yunxi's attitude towards Baili Mingxiang's punishment had long been clear.
Baili Mingxiang couldn't die, and she couldn't be punished. Therefore, as soon as she returned to the camp, she told Xu Donglin to find the female doctor to apply medicine to Baili Mingxiang.
To them, Baili Mingxiang's identity was even more special than Baili Yuanlong's. Long Fei Ye had spent so much effort to use Baili Mingxiang as a bait. Even Bai Yanqing had taken the bait, so how could they give up on Baili Mingxiang at this time?
In fact, after returning to the camp, Han Yunxi had already understood everything after her rage subsided. Long Fei Ye didn't say anything for a long time. She was also very sure of Long Fei Ye's attitude.
Han Yunxi was silent. Baili Yuqi glared at her angrily, but Long Fei Ye was eating calmly, as if there was no one else present.
Han Yunxi smiled bitterly. Was Long Fei Ye so sure that she could handle this matter?
Although the attitude towards this matter was clear, how to deal with it was another difficult problem!
If Baili Yuanlong and Baili Mingxiang were absolved of their crimes, where would Long Fei Ye's prestige as a monarch be? Given Baili Yuanlong's temper, wouldn't he take a mile when given an inch in the future? Disobeying orders without punishment — this kind of precedent absolutely couldn't be set, especially in the military.
If they were to be punished, how should they be punished? If they were punished lightly, the result would be the same as not being punished at all. If they were punished heavily, they couldn't do it at this critical juncture.
Han Yunxi pondered, but Baili Yuqi didn't have that much patience. He suddenly kowtowed, "Your Highness, father disobeyed orders and should be beheaded. This general is willing to accept the punishment for father. I ask Your Highness to consider the bigger picture and spare father this time!"
Long Fei Ye sneered, "Baili Yuqi, you mean that my East Qin army can't move forward without your father? This Crown Prince can't control the overall situation? "
Although there would be a lot of trouble without Baili Yuanlong and many of his affairs would have to be pushed back, it didn't mean that his world would fall into chaos without Baili Yuanlong!
Baili Yuqi was so shocked that he repeatedly denied it, "This general is clumsy with his words. This general misspoke, please punish me, Your Highness!"
Han Yunxi was angry and amused. Why didn't Baili Yuqi beg her?
Long Fei Ye's original words were, "The snake disaster was settled by Han Yunxi. Let's see what she thinks about this matter."
Long Fei Ye used the three words "Han Yunxi" and not "Western Qin Princess", nor did he refer to her as "she". This meant that Long Fei Ye had already compromised and only wanted to resolve the snake disaster in private, throwing away Baili Yuanlong's suspicions of the "Western Qin Princess".
As long as they thanked her and admitted their wrongs regarding the snake disaster, Long Fei Ye would turn a blind eye for the sake of the bigger picture!
