Outside the capital city, Liu Wenxue began ordering his soldiers to hit the walls and doors. They had lost patience, especially in the absence of food and grass. If they didn't attack the city again, they would starve to death even if they were not killed by Ye Yiqing's men.
The only thing Liu Wenxue didn't expect was that he underestimated Ye Yiqing. He originally thought that there were not many generals in the city who were good at fighting. Ye Yiqing was just a literati. What experience did he have in fighting? The elite soldiers stopped outside the city and could not go any further.
"Ye Yiqing, what exactly do you want? You are not from the Dongqing Kingdom, do you need to work so hard for Li Heng? Your son's life or death in Liusha City is uncertain. Do you think he can really withstand the army of the Beiming Kingdom? ? Without my order, Liu Jiabing would never help him. Do you want your son's life, or defend the capital city for Li Heng? What do you think you can do if you defend it now? It won't be long. Was Beiming Kingdom embezzled?"
"These are two different things." Ye Yiqing looked down at Liu Wenxue, "Eat the king's salary, and worry about the king's worries. Now that your Liu family is rebelling, if I can't protect the emperor against you, then what's the point of being a prime minister? To you Such an unfaithful and unrighteous person is not worthy of cooperating with this official."
"Infidelity?" Liu Wenxue sneered, "If it wasn't for him, Li Heng, who couldn't tolerate our Liu family after he ascended the throne, how could our Liu family have ended up like this? Are we going to sit and wait for death?"
Ye Yiqing said, "Is it because the emperor can't tolerate you, or is there no one in your Liu family?"
"It's useless to talk too much, Ye Yiqing, if you insist on being in front of the general today, then you should be very clear about your son's fate in Quicksand City." Liu Wenxue snorted coldly.
"If you can break into the city, come in, don't talk nonsense." Ye Yiqing is not worried about his son, but the fastest way now is to subdue Liu Wenxue first, otherwise it is impossible to send reinforcements to Liusha City.
Liu Wenxue ordered, "Siege the city!"
Ye Yiqing also waved his hand, "Kill without mercy!"
Ye Zhen, who was in the prime minister's mansion, heard the sound of shouting and killing again, she sat up straight in shock, "Liu Wenxue started attacking the city?"
"They have been attacking outside for five days, there is no chance to enter the city." Xue Lin said.
That's right, the reinforcements who had been saying they would arrive must have arrived, but it's just that they haven't acted for so many days, so it must be what Dad meant.
"What happened outside?" Zhao Yang came in from the outside, looking at Ye Zhen nervously.
Ye Zhen said, "It's nothing, it's just that Liu Wenxue is attacking the city."
Zhaoyang's heart tightened, "Then your father hasn't come back yet?"
"At this time, he must still be on the city wall." Ye Zhen glanced at Zhaoyang, and found that she seemed to be very concerned about her father.
"Then is there any news from your brother?" Zhaoyang asked again.
This question is also what Ye Zhen is most worried about. There is no news from her elder brother. She only heard about the changes in Beiming Kingdom before, but now she doesn't know what to do. "Xue Lin, is there any news from Liusha City?"
Xue Lin said in a low voice, "The gates of the city are blocked, so no news can come in."
Ye Zhen frowned, "I see."
The battle on the city wall did not subside until midnight. Liu Wenxue was captured alive, and only 5,000 of the 20,000 elite soldiers had surrendered. Liu Wenxue did not expect Ye Yiqing to have such terrible patience, and let 50,000 soldiers stand still and watch them attack. City, when they were exhausted, they ordered them to be encircled and suppressed.
Even Liu Wenxue, who has experienced many battles, has to admire Ye Yiqing's strategy and patience.
However, he at least took a sigh of relief for himself, an arrow shot Ye Yiqing in the shoulder, even if he couldn't kill him, at least half his life was okay.
Ye Zhen was awakened in the middle of the night.
"Girl, Master is injured." Hong Ling hurried in from the outside.
"What?" Ye Zhen sat up in shock, "Where's dad?"
Hong Ling said, "Wu Chong sent him back. In the room in the outer courtyard, Doctor Wang is also there."
Ye Zhen didn't care too much, put on her clothes neatly, "Go get my medicine box."
They rushed to the outer hospital quickly, only to find that apart from Wang Yizheng, several imperial doctors had also come, and they were all ordered by Li Heng to treat Ye Yiqing's injuries.
"Wang Yizheng, how is my father?" Ye Zhen went straight into the room and asked Wang Yizheng who was stopping Ye Yiqing's bleeding.
"Miss Lu!" Doctor Wang relaxed when he saw her face, "Master Ye's arrow is right next to his heart, we dare not pull it out easily... we can only stop the bleeding first."
When Ye Zhen saw that the arrow was almost in the middle of her mouth, her hands couldn't help shaking, and she glared at Wu Chong, "Didn't you ask you to protect my father?"
Wu Chong was covered in blood, and he knelt down on one knee, "This subordinate has neglected his duty."
"Don't blame him, I was careless." Ye Yiqing whispered to Ye Zhen.
"Father!" Ye Zhen's eyes turned red, "I'll heal your wounds, don't talk."
Ye Yiqing held her hand, "Don't be afraid, dad will be fine."
"Wang Yizheng, please go out!" Ye Zhen said in a low voice, she had to use Lingquan to be confident to take out the arrow for her father.
"Miss Ye, don't you need help from others?" An imperial doctor questioned.
Ye Zhen said coldly, "No need, you all go out!"
Doctor Wang was frowning at her, "Miss Lu..."
"Xue Lin, Wu Chong, please go out and don't let anyone in." Ye Zhen had already ordered.
Ye Yiqing nodded slightly to Doctor Wang.
Only their father and daughter were left in the house.
"Father, I'm going to take out the arrow for you." Ye Zhen looked at the wound that was still bleeding, and pointed her palm to Ye Yiqing, thinking together, a spiritual spring gushed out.
"What is this?" The cool and fragrant liquid dripped into his mouth, and Ye Yiqing suddenly felt the pain of the wound relieved a bit, and he looked at his daughter in surprise.
Ye Zhen avoided his eyes, "I don't know, but it can save people anyway."
This is... the golden finger after the daughter's rebirth? This is the secret of her being able to cure Li Heng's brain tumor
Can water flow out of the palm automatically? No, this is not ordinary water, what is it called, Lingquan
"Father, I'm going to draw the arrow." Ye Zhen said.
"After you were reborn, did you have this thing in your palm?" Ye Yiqing asked.
Ye Zhen pursed her lips, "Does Daddy think I'm a monster?"
Ye Yiqing laughed, "So how many people want to become monsters? Yaoyao, this is a gift from the heavens. It is sacred and precious. Don't waste your golden fingers."
"What is a golden finger?" Ye Zhen pressed a clean white cloth to his wound, and pulled out the arrow forcefully.
Ye Yiqing snorted and his face became even paler.
Ye Zhen hastily dripped Lingquan on his wound.
