Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 360: Failed (1)
, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the hairpin!
Lu Mingyu stared at the fourth prince.
Right now, the most important thing in the Great Wei Dynasty is fighting. Looking at the face of the fourth prince, it was obvious that the army had lost the battle.
Sure enough, the fourth prince said in a low voice with a gloomy face: "After I reported to my mother, there was a battle report from the army. When the eldest brother was leading the army, he underestimated the enemy. "
Before she finished speaking, Concubine Meng rushed over, her eyes were red, and her voice was sharp: "What did you say? How could the eldest prince be injured? How is he injured? Does it matter?"
The face of the eldest princess was pale, her body was shaky, and she was about to faint.
Lu Mingyu got close, stretched out his hand to support the eldest prince, and said solemnly: "Don't panic, let the fourth brother explain clearly."
The fourth prince took a deep breath and said quickly: "The battle report lists the number of casualties, but did not elaborate on the injury to the eldest brother. In my opinion, it should not be a serious injury. Concubine Meng, don't worry, sister-in-law. Hold steady."
In a previous life, the eldest prince died in battle.
In this life, Li Jing reminded the eldest prince before he set off on the expedition, and he has sent several letters in the past few months. The eldest prince was intent on making meritorious deeds, but he didn't take Li Jing's words to heart at all. In the end, he still underestimated the enemy's trap and lost the battle. Not to mention the heavy casualties of the soldiers, he was also injured.
I don't know what the injury is, but I have to save my life.
Lu Mingyu's thoughts changed, and her expression couldn't help but show a bit of indifference: "The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and injuries are inevitable, but it's better if there is no harm in life."
She's telling the truth. For the terrified Concubine Meng and the First Prince, it was like a sharp sword stabbing the heart and adding fuel to the fire.
Concubine Meng turned her head abruptly, staring at Lu Mingyu with red eyes: "It's not that the crown prince was injured, so it's no wonder that the crown prince is so calm and calm."
The eldest prince and concubine had a weak temperament, and covered her face with her sleeves and wept.
The ease and joy of catching Zhou Yan was immediately swept away.
Lu Mingyu still looked indifferent: "After such a long distance, it will take more than half a month to send a battle report. If you count the time, this battle has already been fought. Your Highness is injured, and I feel sorry to hear it. Grief. However, it is useless to cry and be sad at this time, it is better to think about how to contribute to the army."
Suddenly bad news, everyone felt flustered.
Lu Mingyu was almost cold and calm, and as the invisible pressure dissipated, everyone's hearts slowly calmed down.
Meng Yunluo was the first to persuade Concubine Meng: "What the concubine said also makes sense. We don't know about the war, and we are separated by thousands of miles. Even if you are in a hurry, you can't do anything about it. At this time, you can get Hold steady and wait for the follow-up news. Aunt, don't scare yourself."
Zhao Yu stepped forward to hold the eldest princess and persuaded in a low voice: "It is inevitable to suffer some injuries in battle. Maybe it is just a minor injury. There is a military doctor in the military camp, maybe the injury has been cured long ago. I didn't send it to the capital."
Everyone, you comforted each other with every word, how could Concubine Meng and Concubine the First Prince listened, and each lost his soul.
Queen Qiao had to instruct the palace staff to bring them back to Yanxi Palace first.
……
When something like this happened, no one was in the mood to eat and drink. The first-year banquet of brother and sister Xuan came to an hastily end.
Queen Qiao returned to the Jiaofang Palace worriedly.
Lu Mingfang, Shen Lan and others gathered in the East Palace. All of them had been holding on to their panic before, but now they all revealed their worries: "The army has lost the battle, I don't know what will happen next?"
"Yeah, I've been winning battles all the time before, but suddenly with such a big defeat, the military's heart will definitely be turbulent."
"I don't know how the First Prince's injury is!"
Lu Xuan couldn't help but express a worry that everyone had never said: "His Royal Highness will be fine!"
Lu Mingyu is the most calm one: "The imperial army is divided into two groups, and the first prince leads the army to defeat the prince, which will not affect the prince. Don't panic!"
Lu Mingfang and Shen Lan looked at each other and sighed.
What they are worried about is not only the prince, but also their husbands.
That's the downside of marrying a general. Once the husband-in-law leads the troops to fight, his heart hangs in the air, and he is always on guard, lest he hear any bad news.
Looking to see their worries, Lu Mingyu said softly, "Don't scare yourself. The man leads the army to fight, and we become the backbone of the family. If we panic, everything will be messed up."
Lu Mingfang has experienced a lot, and quickly settled down: "Fourth sister is right. We all need to be steady."
Shen Lan responded in a low voice.
……
In Yanxi Palace, Concubine Meng and Concubine the First Prince sat blankly opposite each other.
The eldest princess quickly burst into tears again. Concubine Meng didn't cry anymore, she gritted her teeth and said, "This Lu Mingyu has a really vicious mind."
"Ayi was injured, I don't know the severity. Our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were heartbroken. She watched the fun from the other side of the bank and was not in a hurry. Maybe, she was waiting for Ayi's accident in her heart!"
The eldest prince concubine choked and cried: "It's useless to say these things now. I just hope that your Highness is fine."
Concubine Meng was upset and glared at the eldest princess: "Cry, cry, cry, what else do you know besides crying! Wipe my tears away, I'm not at the point of dying or living."
The eldest princess wiped her tears with her sleeves, but the tears fell again before they were wiped clean.
Concubine Meng couldn't stand it any longer, so she got up and went back to her bedroom.
The eldest princess was not in the mood to coax her mother-in-law, so she just sat there in a daze, tears streaming down like beads with a broken thread.
No matter how angry or resentful, that is her husband. She always expects him to be well. Now that he has lost the battle, the injury is unknown, and her heart is frying.
After the day passed, a barrage of bad news came.
After the eldest prince lost the battle, the Chu army took advantage of the situation and assembled a large army to attack.
The condition of the first prince's injury was also introduced into the palace.
The eldest prince was injured in his right leg. The injury was not serious, and the best time for treatment was delayed. Although he was saved, his right leg was about to fall.
The eldest princess fainted when she heard the bad news.
Concubine Meng was no better than the eldest prince concubine, and she also lay down and fell ill.
The Empress Dowager Zhao felt distressed for her eldest grandson and cried bitterly: "These Chu thieves who deserve a thousand knives hurt the leg of the eldest prince. He is still young and suffers from leg problems in the future, how can he show his goodness."
Concubine Qin was secretly delighted, wishing that the Crown Prince and the Third Prince would also suffer some injuries.
Concubine Qin wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief smeared with onion juice, and her eyes quickly turned red, while choking and persuading the Queen Mother Zhao: "Fortunately, the eldest prince only injured one leg, and it is also a blessing that his life is safe. Don't be too sad, Empress Dowager. If you hurt your body, there will be no backbone in this palace."
