[BL, MTL] You Shu (Quick Wear)

Chapter 62: Painted Skin (22)

How could Zhao Shilang not understand his own son? Youshu has been brain-dead since she was a child, and she believes that even eight cows can't be pulled back. Since he has a deep-rooted affection for the Ninth Prince, he must be accompanied by life and death. If the Ninth Prince dies on the battlefield, it is very unlikely that he will live alone.

In order to keep his son, Zhao Shilang even had the idea of ​​kidnapping someone and hiding him, but he couldn't prevent that bastard Ninth Prince from blatantly robbing him. God knows how many times he cursed the Ninth Prince after they left, but he had no choice but to pray for him under his wife's orders. Because he is alive, his son can live, and they are two lives now.

Whenever the night is quiet and people can't sleep, he can only tell himself and his wife over and over again: The Ninth Prince will not die, he is the crown prince, even if the 300,000 troops are all wiped out, someone will find a way to send him back . It should be safe for our son to follow him.

However, he also knew in his heart that it was still unknown whether the 300,000 troops would obey the orders of the Ninth Prince. Those veterans, princes, and even empresses in the court, who don't hope that the Ninth Prince will die quickly, they can completely stumbling him secretly, making him go and never return. Even the houses of the Zhao family who were firmly on the side of the Ninth Prince had turned to the Sixth Prince one after another, and in turn squeezed and crushed the big house.

Zhao Shilang hates that, every time someone in the court stands up and urges the emperor to issue an order to the northwest, ordering the nine princes to commit suicide, he will grab this person in a fit of anger and abuse him, dare to spout all kinds of rude words, until he can't lift his head up. Just give up. It was because of his strong fighting power that Emperor Zhongkang felt more at ease in the months after the prince left, and pampered him a lot more. Otherwise, if another person loses his composure in the court meeting, he will immediately ask the guards to fork him out, and he will be liable for fifty.

Zhao Shilang, who was in grief, took the battle report, read it with sobs, and then froze. After a few breaths, he read the battle report again, then got up with a grunt, laughing and jumping with his hands up, like a madman. It turned out that this battle report was written by the Ninth Prince himself. Not only did he report the good news of the great victory, but he also said that he and Youshu were safe, reassuring his father, Mr. Zhao, and Mrs. Zhao. He also said that he would never break his original promise, even if he died in battle, he would send Youshu back to Shangjing safely.

He didn't die, he didn't die, and he used an army of 300,000 to wipe out a million coalition troops. What kind of miracle is this? Although the battle report did not detail how the battle was won, Zhao Shilang firmly believed in it. He laughed wildly for a quarter of an hour before he calmed down amid Zhongkangdi's coughing, wiped away his tears with a handkerchief, blew his nose, and straightened his crooked official hat, as if nothing had happened before.

Emperor Zhongkang waved his hands dumbfounded, "Send the battle report to all the lovers."

Seeing Zhao Shilang's reaction, everyone in the hall was already scratching their hearts and lungs curiously. Crying for a while and laughing for a while, could it be a good news? But it's impossible! How can an army of 300,000 compete with a coalition army of one million? Moreover, these 300,000 troops are not of one mind and each has their own plans, so why would they die for the Ninth Prince? Could it be that reinforcements arrived in time to save him? It is also impossible, all the princes have already greeted, and the surrounding troops are not allowed to move without authorization, unless there is news of the death of the Ninth Prince.

With all the arrangements, even if the Ninth Prince had nine lives, he would not be able to survive the war! Thinking in this way, many people regained their composure, circulated the battle report one by one, and then showed expressions of disbelief. Especially the princes, who accidentally distorted their faces, looked like weeping but not crying, half smiling but not smiling, it was very weird.
