Chapter 173 (Part 1) Feng Cang is a madman

Mishas decision startled Xia Xue, Young master, your injuries are very serious. You still need to rest!

Xia Xue had just finished speaking when Misha felt a burst of dizziness. The pain from his left eye stimulated his brain. He clutched his left eye. Xia Xue quickly helped Misha lie down. Young master, how are you feeling? Does it hurt very much?

Misha was in so much pain that he could only take deep breaths.

Seeing Misha in so much pain, Xia Xues heart felt more pain than him, Young master, the medicine we were carrying on our bodies had been washed away by the water! This place is remote and desolate. There is nothing

It doesnt matter. Misha took a deep breath. Even if he wanted to glue some wings on him and fly to Dong Lu, but the pain from just now made Misha realise that getting out of bed now and rushing to Dong Lu was just a fantasy. Unless he wanted to lose his life in Dong Lu. However, before getting Yi Lian, he couldnt die.

Young master, youre seriously injured. You still need to nurse yourself back to health. Why dont you recuperate first; when your body is a bit better, we will go to Dong Lu then, alright? Didnt you always say that the body is the capital of life?! Without a healthy body, how will you go achieve your dream?

While Misha was still hesitating, Xia Xues words undoubtedly played the role of pushing the wave and add to the billows. It so happened that at this moment, a piecing pain came from his left eye, making Misha almost faint from agony.

Pushing the wave and add to the billows: add fuel to fire

Xia Xuego inquire about the situation of Dong Lu. We wont leave for the moment.

Misha saying they wouldnt leave for now made Xia Xue happy. In the past, Misha had always stubbornly adhered to his own thoughts and always refused to change. This time, he was actually willing to listen to her and stay put. Did this mean that in Mishas heart, she at least had a little bit of status?

Misha closed his eyes. His right hand clenched into a fist. Now, he was like a tiger whose claws had been pulled out. Any ordinary person could hurt him. The state of his left hand and left eye made Misha hate Feng Cang to death.

That godlike man had not only stolen his Yi Lian, hed also destroyed his left eye and injured his left hand. The hate of stolen love, the pain of the body, he (M) must avenge! But before avenging, he must restore his health. As Xia Xue said, without a healthy body, how could he compete with Feng Cang for Yi Lian? Originally, his legs were disabled. Now, hed also lost his left eye. Will Yi Lian fancy such a him?

If it was on his pride, he would certainly not be able to accept such a him. Disabled legs, and also lost his left eye. He was completely a deformity. He might as well die! However, he was unwilling! He was unwilling that Yi Lian was robbed like this by another!

When he thought about death, inside Mishas eyes appeared Feng Qi Qis image. She was more beautiful and prettier than she was in the past life, making peoples eyes unable to leave her. Whether it was the past or the present life, Yi Lian was the most beautiful in his eyes. Hed searched painfully for all these years, wasnt it just to meet her?!

However, while Misha thought so, Xia Xue was also counting on a narrow abacus in her heart.

Count on a narrow abacus: scheming selfishly

After feeding Misha some rice porridge and served him to sleep, Xia Xue came to grandma Li and Li Da. The moment she saw Li Da, Xia Xue knelt and kowtowed and kept repeating, Thanking benefactor. This made Li Da be at loss of what to do. It was grandma Li who pushed him. He stepped forward and helped Xia Xue stand up.

Miss Xia Xue, your husband is very fortunate and lucky. As long as he recuperates well, he will certainly restore his health!

Thanks uncle Li. Thanks! Xia Xue took out a golden hairpin and stuffed it in grandma Lis hand. Grandma Li, uncle Li, thank you for taking me and my husband in and also for treating our wounds. I have only such a valuable thing on me. Take this golden hairpin as my gratitude towards you!

What are you saying?! Grandma Li stuffed the golden hairpin back to Xia Xue. If you have the need, just directly say it. Why be so polite?! In the future, there will be many days where you would need money. Keep this golden hairpin. Perhaps, in a critical moment, it could save you! How can we take your money?!

The two shoved at each other for half a day. Xia Xue still let grandma Li keep the golden hairpin, In fact, I came today to beg you for one thing. Although, my husband is seriously injured, but he kept thinking about taking revenge. I dont want him to go and die this time. We arent the others party opponents! I dont know how to discourage him.

Miss Xia Xue, let me advise him!

Li Da was ready to leave, but was stopped by Xia Xue, Uncle Li, its useless. Hes too stubborn. He would certainly do the things he decided! Im only worried about his body. He was so seriously wounded. Im afraid that he hasnt seen the enemy yet and have already died. So, I want to ask uncle Li to help me!

Although Xia Xues expression was cold, but the care and concern she showed towards Misha these past month, made grandma Li and Li Da think that she was a good girl. Moreover, they felt very sympathetic to the love between her and Misha.

Now, Xia Xue sought their help. Besides, they took a golden hairpin from the other party; of course, they had to help her. Li Da opened his mouth, Alright! Tell me!

Uncle Li, can you add an herb that aide people to sleep in the medicine? Seeing his wound, he should at least recuperate for a month. Im worried that he would disregard his body and hurt himself. So, I want to ask you to add some other herbs in the medicine to let him sleep more.

Xia Xue said so made Li Da surprised, Miss Xia Xue, you really want to do this? What would you do in case your husband detected it?

When he notices, presumably the wounds on his body would be healed. If he wants to take revenge, by then, I will return with him! However, its not now. Now, he couldnt get up by himself. I cant let him go die. Father and mother already dont admit me I only have him

Speaking of moving things, Xia Xues tears fell, making grandma Li quickly go forward and wiped her tears.

Li Da, I think we should help Xia Xue on this matter! Shes so pitiful!

Mother made her speech. Naturally, Li Da should listen to it. From that night onwards, inside Mishas medicine was added an ingredient that made him sleep. Like this, a month had passed. Theyve gone into summer. The weather was getting hotter.

Resting for a month, the wound on Mishas left shoulder was almost healed. Although, he couldnt use it freely yet, but it looked no different from ordinary people.

Now, Misha had also became aware of the status of his left eye. That arrow of Feng Cang hit his left eye. When Li Da took the arrow out of him, his eyeball was attached to the arrow. His whole eyeball was pulled out. Now, his left eye had sunken and left a hole as big as a jujube.

Misha tried not to think about his left eye and also didnt look in the mirror at his left eye. Although, he had been taking medicine, but his left eye was gone would hurt a long time. This also made his brain hurt a lot.

In the modern era, losing a big eye would be considered a major surgery. Let alone, in the ancient times. Beside they were in a village at the hill. Fortunately, they met Li Da. Hes a good person and also had good skills. It could be considered that he (M) picked back his life.

Xia Xue, what date is it today? Why did the cicadas begin to chirp now?!

Because of the serious injuries, Mishas physique had gotten a lot worse. So, he didnt feel the temperature rise and also didnt feel the warmth. Instead, it was the cicadas on the tree outside that made Misha puzzled. Could it be that summer already came? However, he clearly remembered that he just slept a few days, ah

Xia Xue was surprised for a moment with Misha asking this. Then, she pretended like nothing was the matter and continued to feed Misha medicine, Young master, you should ask the cicadas this question. I dont know.

Without the wheelchair plus the lost if the left eye, even though Misha was awake, he preferred to stay in the house. Moreover, every time he woke up, only a little while later, after he ate and took the medicine, he would fall asleep. He didnt know that the time had already flew by and that it was June now.

Hehe, you let me as the cicadas stumped me. What day is it today? Did you inquire about the matter I let you go inquire?

Young master, I cant leave here, but I already asked people to help me inquire. I believe that we will get the news soon! Today, only ten days had passed. Dont worry!

Xia Xue, I feel that Im much better. Thank you for your care during this time!

Young master, this is what I should do!

Xia Xue helped Misha lay down. She took the empty bowl and went out. After she went out, she also softly closed the door.

Misha stared at the roof. Sleepiness hit him once again. It seemed that every time after he drank the medicine, he would feel very tired. If it wasnt because every time when he woke up, it was during the day, he wouldve thought that he only slept one night!

Slept one night?! Misha suddenly thought of something. He pushed his body and sat up.

This isnt right! Why does he feel that he slept for a long time? However, every time when he opened his eyes, it was during the day. Xia Xue said that he only slept for a little while. Hearing the chirps of the cicadas, it must be summer now. Why did Xia Xue say that it was the tenth? The first time he woke up, it was May. If only ten days had passed, why did cicadas appear in May?

Could it be that Xia Xue did something with the medicine? That was why he will sleep and not wake up? Thinking till here, another burst of dizziness hit him. Misha pinched his body and used the pain of his body to stimulate himself.

Without the wheelchair, Misha couldnt get out of bed. He simply put his hand on the ground and crawled to the door.

Outside, Li Da came back from picking herbs. Seeing Xia Xue, he smiled at her, Miss Xia Xue, did you husband already drink the medicine?

He just drank it and just laid down. He must be asleep now. Uncle Li, you came back very early today!

Xia Xue was very grateful to Li Da. If it wasnt because Li Da saved them and also went to pick herbs daily, perhaps she and Misha would be ghosts now in the underwater. Moreover, Li Da listened to her and added herbs that aided sleep in the medicine, so Misha could recuperate peacefully and didnt trouble here and trouble there. Speaking about it, that Misha was able to recover so fast was also Li Das credit.

Having entered summer, the herbs on the mountain increased. Look, today, I picked many Lingyi herb. When its dried, it can be made into medicine!

Lingyi herb? Through the seam of the door, Misha saw the herbs in Li Das hands. Surely, it was Lingyi herb,

This herb had the role of promoting sleep. Why did Li Da pick Lingyi herb? Could it be that there was Lingyi herb in the medicine that he drank every day? The thought about what Li Da said just now having entered summer, Misha suddenly came to a realization.

No wonder he would be so drowsy every day. It turned out that it came from Lingyi herb! He didnt need to guess to know that Xia Xue mustve acted on her own initiative. She didnt want to let him go to Dong Lu, so she preferred to let Li Da put Lingyi herb in the medicine to let him sleep continuously. She was trying to delay time!

Boom! Just as Xia Xue and Li Da was chatting, from inside Mishas room came a loud noise. The wooden door was shattered into pieces.

Chapter 173 (Part 2) Feng Cang is a madman

The sudden noise surprised Li Da. Grandma Li in the next room had also been scared and run over here. She repeatedly asked, What had happened?

After the smoke was cleared, Xia Xue saw Misha sitting on the floor. Wasnt he asleep? When did he get out of bed? Seeing that Misha used his hands to support his body, Xia Xue quickly went over to him.

Young master, what had happened? Why did you come out of bed? If there was anything, you couldve called me, ah!

F**** off, Misha gestured with his hand. The wind in his right-hand palm hit the unprepared Xia Xue to the ground. Bitch! You actually delayed my time and put Lingyi herb in my medicine!

Hearing Misha say that, Xia Xue knew that what he and Li Da said just now was heard by Misha. She couldnt care about wiping the blood from her mouth. Xia Xue immediately knelt in front of Misha, Young master, please listen to my explanation! You were seriously injured. If you insisted on going to Dong Lu, if your wound got infected on the road, it would endanger your life, ah! This slave considered from the point of your health and had to come up with this plan. This slave did it for you, young master!

Damned you! The more Misha listened, the angrier he got. It seemed that everything was true. He actually wasted so much time here. He didnt know how the situation was now in Dong Lu.

Young master, dont be angry. Its this slaves fault. Dont be angry! If you want to punish, then punish this slave, Xia Xue didnt finish, when another wave of wind from a hand palm came at her. Xia Xue fell on the ground once again.

Dont come lie to me with those high-sounding reasons! You just dont want me to go to Dong Lu. You just dont want me to see Yi Lian! So, you repeatedly stopped me! Did you think that I dont know what you are thinking? Want to become my woman? Are you worthy?!

Mishas whole body trembled. He had never thought that Xia Xue would do such a thing, Say, what date is it now?!

Mishas aggressiveness completely stunned grandma Li and Li Da. After hearing Misha did they found out the reason. Xia Xue was not this young handsome mans wife. Shes his slave! They were lied to by Xia Xue?!

Seeing that Misha was not to be trifled with, grandma Li quickly answered in Xia Xues stead, Its already mid-June

What? Misha cold eyes casted her a glance, making grandma Li shiver from fear. She almost fell. It was Li Da who supported her. Say it once again?

Now, its already mid-June

Good, very good! Very good! Misha looked fiercely at Xia Xue. The hatred in his eyes was apparent.

Xia Xue knew that Misha must hate her to death. She didnt think that her own act on her initiative would let Misha be so disgusted, Young master, I was wrong! I know Im wrong! Young master, give me one more chance! I really just want you to recuperate well, ah!

Xia Xue wanted to come forward but had once again been hit to the ground.

Seeing Xia Xue like this, Li Da couldnt help but stand up and berated Misha, No matter what miss Xia Xue did wrong, it was for your body, it was for your own good! How can you bite the hands that feed you?! When you were in a coma, it was miss Xia Xue who took care of you without rest. Even if youre angry, you should think about the good things about her. How can you treat her, a girl, like this?!

Li Das berating made Mishas face got darker. He stared long at Li Da. He suddenly laughed, Since you want to come up for her so much, then, I will let you see the true face of this woman!

After finishing speaking, Misha gestured with his finger at Xia Xue.

Young master, forgive me! She couldnt care less about the pain on her body and crawled to Misha. With a face of begging like a Pekinese dog, she looked at Misha, Young master, as long as you forgive me, Im willing to do anything for you.

Really? Misha smiled innocently. The black eye-patch on his left eye made him look even more like a rebirthed devil with a nave smile, but there was a deep coldness in his eyes.

Kill them! Kill them, then, I will forgive you!

Misha pointed at Li Da and grandma Li and smiled gently at Xia Xue.

Young master, Xia Xues heart shivered. If it wasnt because of grandma Li and Li Da, they wouldnt have survived. However, now Mishas demand was to kill them. How could she do it?

What, dont want to part with your accomplice?

When Mishas cold voice with a trace of heartlessness reached Xia Xues ears, she couldnt help but shudder. With her understanding of Misha, if she doesnt do it, he will kill them himself and also punish her accordingly. She didnt want to lose Mishas trust!

Xia Xue clenched her teeth. She stood up and walked to Li Da, Grandma Li, Li Da, sorry!

Xia Xues appearance clearly looked like that she wanted to kill them. This made grandma Li and Li Da greatly shocked, Mother, be careful! Li Da carried grandma Li on his back and run to the outside. However, he didnt run out of the yard, Xia Xue flashed and was already in front of them.

At this time, Xia Xues gentle look disappeared. She was cold as ice. Her original look returned.

Sorry! A hatchet appeared in Xia Xues hands. A light flashed. On Li Das neck appeared a smear of blood. The red blood was like a fountain and sprayed all over the place.

Eldest, eldest Li Das body slowly fell on the ground. Grandma Li also rolled to the ground. Seeing her son dying tragically, grandma Li began to shout, Come, ah! Murder! Come ah! Murder

Chinese people usually call their sons according to their rank of birth. Since Li Da is the only child, she would call him Eldest

She didnt shout the second murder yet, when grandma Li had fallen in a pool of blood. Like Li Da, grandma Li was also killed with one stroke.

Looking at the two people who fell on the ground, thinking about how they lived together these past two months, Xia Xues heart hurt very much. However, if she didnt do it like this, she would lose Mishas trust. Compared to Misha, Li Da and grandma Li were nothing.

Lets go! Misha didnt feel anything about these two peoples death. They lied to him. They deserved to be killed! They delayed his time and he didnt know the situation of Dong Lu now. Dong Lu cant lose. He needs to stop Feng Cang!

Yes! Xia Xue searched through the house and found some money grandma Li kept including that golden hairpin. She put them away in her chest. She also took some food. Finally, she dragged the two peoples corpses to the room. A fire burned down the place where they lived for two months.

Behind was a blazing fire. Xia Xue carried Misha on her back and left without looking back.

On the road, Xia Xue hired a carriage. They rushed for half a month. Early July, they arrived at Dong Lu.

Along the way, Misha heard many things about Feng Cang. For example, Feng Cang utterly defeated Hu Xue Sen in just half a month. Dong Lu withdraw the troops from Pingyi, Gaoyang and Jinyuan. But Feng Cang wasnt satisfied with Dong Lus withdrawal of the troops. Instead, he pursued the retreating enemy and went all the way to the abdomen of Dong Lu, making it so that Dong Lu could only resist.

At this time, princess Zhen Guo led two hundred thousand soldiers as reinforcement. Feng Cang captured the city as a leading figure. Feng Qi Qi immediately occupied the territory. The two coordinated perfectly. It seemed like they had the intention to devour Dong Lu. Ever since Feng Cang led the army till now, in just two and a half short months, Dong Lu already lost two thirds of its cities.

Crazy! Crazy! Getting these messages, Misha couldnt help but curse.

In two and half month, not only did Feng Cang cut off the heads of Hu Xue Sen and Dong Lus emperor Xia Jin, he also occupied more than half the territory of Dong Lu. How crazy was this person to be able to do such a thing?!

What others couldnt complete in a year or so, when it came to Feng Cang, it was like a childs play. It happened that Feng Qi Qi was his partner. He attacked, she occupied and defended the city. This couple was simply a golden combination.

What was odder was Xi Qi. Now, Longze Yu and Longze Jing Tian was also badly burned about the head. Feng Xies coming back from death was unexpected to them. Longze Yu put more than half of the military power on dealing with Bei Zhou and Feng Xie. He didnt expect that Nan Feng suddenly gave them a surprise attack and caught them unprepared.

Since most of the military was in the east, dealing with Bei Zhou; when the north was met with Ming Yue Chengs three hundred thousand soldiers, Xi Qis army could only retreat in defeat. Longze Jing Tian wanted to mobilize the army back to reinforce, he didnt expect that Feng Xie only used a small amount of the army and let them have no spare time for a separate task. He didnt dare to retreat. Until now, Ming Yue Chengs side almost reached Xi Qis capital, Xiliang.

A good relieve a besieged ally by attacking the home base of the besiegers! A good threaten the east and strike to the west!

Misha was now surer that Ming Yue Cheng deployed his army like this because he reached an agreement with Bei Zhou. Looking at Ming Yue Cheng, it seemed that wanted to waste time with Xi Qi. Could it be that Nan Feng and Bei Zhou would like to take this opportunity to divide the mainland and let Dong Lu and Xi Qi become history?

Misha only cursed Feng Cang for being a war madman. He didnt know that after Feng Cang got to know that the fetal poison in his body was Forget Love, he wanted to end the war very much. Only after the war is ended, could he go to Penglai Island to cure the poison.

Feng Cang was afraid that if the time was dragged for too long, it would let him forget Feng Qi Qi before he could go to Penglai Island. So, aside from the necessarily rest and to get ready, he would be in combat mode. Quickly take down Dong Lu was the thing Feng Cang wanted to do the most.

At this point, Feng Cangs army was getting closer and closer to Dong Lus capital, Yuchu.

Xia Jin already died under Feng Cangs sword. Without a monarch, Dong Lu was in a great mess. Because when Xia Jin was alive, he didnt establish a crown prince, so even if Feng Cangs soldiers were at the city walls and although Dong Lu lost two-third of its territory, Dong Lus princes havent realized that the danger had come. Instead, they were more concerned who would ascend the throne.

Bastards! Till now, you are still fighting? If you continue to fight like this, youre all about to become refugees from a destroyed country! The empress dowager Jun Lan Xin looked at the five princes who refused to accept the other. She shivered from anger.

Two-third of the territory is gone. Soon, Bei Zhous army will come to our Yuchu. You are still fighting here over the throne. Dont you feel ashamed?! Can you have a clear conscience when facing your ancestors, when facing your dead emperor father?!

Jun Lan Xin being like this, fourth prince Xia Zheng well-behavedly came to his imperial grandmother and massaged her shoulders, Imperial grandmother, youre right! Now, its time for our brothers to work with a common purpose and deal unanimously against the outsiders! If we continue to fight like this, Dong Lu will be gone! We must unite!

Its still Zheng er1 who is sensible!

Its all because imperial grandmother taught well!

Xia Zhengs words were very much to Jun Lan Xins liking. Besides, this imperial grandson was her favorite. Seeing these two echo one another, eldest prince Xia Qi was not happy, Imperial grandmother, although the words were said like that, but still one person need to be recommended to preside over the overall situation! Otherwise, both sides would claim theyre right, wouldnt agree with each other and fight till our heads are broken and blood are flowing. Wouldnt this let the outsiders laugh at us?! I think, we should first determine who is the heir to the throne!

Right! Eldest brother is right! After setting the new emperor, the citizens and the generals would be at ease. Everyone would have a pillar to lean on and would also fight against outsiders! By then, not to mention reclaim our cities. Even defeating Bei Zhou is possible!

Xia Qis words received the other three princes support. Seeing the other imperial grandson take a different position from her under Xia Qis lead, Jun Lan Xins expression became dark, Your words make sense, but who should become the emperor? You fought for so many days and didnt came with a result. Could it that you want to continue to waste time like this?!

Dont forget, Dong Lus citizens are living between water and fire and are struggling under the iron heel of Bei Zhou! You are unwilling to make concessions, could it be that you want to become prisoners and let Dong Lu become Bei Zhou?!

When Jun Lan Xin said this, she was emotionally agitated. Even the emerald in the phoenix mouth on the phoenix crown shook.

Tsk how come I heard that those citizens in the cities very much welcomed Bei Zhou people? I heard that Bei Zhous princess Zhen Guo Feng Qi Qi issued a Three Rules of Discipline and Eight Points for Attention and was very popular amongst the citizens. Some also said that the citizens werent disturbed by the war at all. Feng Qi Qi also promised them a ten-year tax exemption. Those who fled their hometown, now have gone back. Feng Qi Qi had long pacified them!

The Three Rules of Discipline and Eight Points for Attention, a military doctrine issued in 1928 by Mao Zedong for the Red Army, which included a number of injunctions demanding high standards of behavior and respect for civilians during wartime

The one who spoke was second prince Xia Yu. Jun Lan Xins lips trembled from anger. Her finger pointed at Xia Yu. She could care less about her identity as empress dowager and scolded.

Xia Yu, youre Dong Lus prince. How could you speak up for the enemys country? Since you say that Bei Zhou was so good, why dont you go to Bei Zhou? Your attitude is like this, your thoughts is like this, arent you selling the country?!

Imperial grandmother, words couldnt be said like this. Who could let the people live well will be supported by the people. Since ancient times, it had been like his. Feng Qi Qi could be like this, I fell that shes very good. Shes a heroine. She could be e compared favourably with men in terms of ability. She deserves to be admired!

1. Er: term of endearment
