Chapter 540 The Consequences Will Be Borne by One Person

When they reached the border, it was time for both sides to fight.

The morale of the Yan Country army was getting stronger as the war progressed. However, because of the lack of military supplies, the Yan Country had no intention of fighting. Many soldiers searched the people while fighting. The people in the city were forced to have no way to live, but they fought with the soldiers.

Su Mianyue and Ji Xun frowned as they looked at the corpses of the people and at the soldiers who were supposed to protect their families and the country but did something to their own people. I am afraid that these deaths and injuries will be recorded on the heads of Yan Country soldiers. Unless the hengyuan kingdom is broken, the truth can be recorded in the history books.

The officials in the carriage could not believe what they saw. The Imperial Guard were also heartbroken as they protected their owners. The army of the Hengyuan was so devoid of humanity that the country was in danger. They would be destroyed by their own people without the need for an external enemy to invade.

As for Empress Dowager, she was scared out of her wits when she saw the bloody scene. She was afraid that those soldiers who dared to attack the people would rob and kill her Empress Dowager.

"Stop it, stop it!" A Hengyuan civil servant stood on the back of the carriage, waving his hands and shouting. His eyes were so red that he could not accept the scene, and no matter how hard his colleagues pulled, he refused to return to the carriage.

"You are all soldiers of the Hengyuan. Your duty is to protect our country and our family. How can you kill the people of the Hengyuan? Stop it, or this official will play you for dinner... Ah!"

Before the civil servant could finish his sentence, he fell into the car and a spear was stuck in his chest, with the Hengyuan army's logo on it.

This scene stung the eyes of many civil servants, but they could not even go down to collect the bodies of their colleagues, and no one wanted to be the next target of assassination.

"It's an official! There must be food and silver in their car. Let's do it!" The soldier who killed the civil servant shouted, but before he could snatch food and money, he was killed by the Imperial Guard.

Su Mianyue and Ji Xun both looked grim when they saw this scene. They had thought of this and left on their own, but it was impossible to see the current situation, unless they did not mind carrying the charge of murdering Hengyuan Empress Dowager and then sending Wanyan Lin into the army.

"All the carriages turn around and leave." Ji Xun immediately gave the order and held Su Mianyue's hand apologetically, "Yue, I'm afraid it's going to be a while before you can rest assured."

Su Mianyue replied with a light smile, "Things will pass. Besides, without my willpower, nothing will happen now. Why do you feel sorry for me?"

Ji Xun suddenly felt relieved and hugged Su Mianyue in his arms, "Yes, we can be together as a family."

As they spoke affectionately, they did not notice that Biwu, who was sitting by the side, looked lonely.

Biwu had been hiding her emotions well during this period, but the closer she got to the border, the more chaotic her heart became. Wu Yuqing was the general guarding the border, but she...

Now that the carriage suddenly turned around and there was no chance of meeting Wu Yuqing for the time being, Biwu felt a sense of loss.

Perhaps she was conflicted, but she was really not ready to see Wu Yuqing because she knew that she had to give up this relationship, but she was very clear that her heart could not let go.

Wu Yuqing, who was commanding the battle, did not know that Biwu was in the city. Seeing that the city gate had been conquered, he immediately ordered the soldiers to attack and ordered that they should not disturb the people.

The bodyguard was driving at an extremely fast speed, and soon he could not hear the sound of war behind him, nor could he feel the strong smell of blood and death.

Retreating the entire way, the secret guards divided some of their men to protect the officials and people who accompanied Empress Dowager and the Hengyuan, or else the Imperial Guard would not have been a match for the red-eyed general.

The sudden accident shocked everyone and they couldn't believe what they saw with their own eyes.

The carriage stopped in a forest. Su Mianyue was not feeling well because of the bumps of the carriage. Ji Xun, of course, weighed Su Mianyue and the children the most.

"Why did it stop? What if those people come to kill us again? Let's go, let's go." Empress Dowager suddenly screamed, his voice filled with fear.

The officials did not dare to make a sound, and the people were scared out of their speech, but they also knew that the real decision in this team was not their honorable Empress Dowager, but the people of the Yan Country, and only they could resist the danger.

"Why aren't you talking? Let's go. The ai family has ordered you to leave now!" Empress Dowager's hair was all messed up in the bumps, but he couldn't care less at the moment.

When the officials saw this, they bowed their heads and did not say a word. They did not have the guts to say such things in front of Su Mianyue. These people did not know who Ji Xun was, so they thought Su Mianyue was the leader of the group.

"They are all trash. What's the use of the court supporting you!" Empress Dowager was too frightened to speak properly. He strode towards su mianyue's carriage, ignoring the dissatisfaction of the officials.

She was Empress Dowager, and no one would dare to disrespect her.

Empress Dowager's movements had long attracted Su Mianyue's attention, but Su Mianyue was too lazy to pay attention to them. With Ji Xun's help, he got off the carriage to rest and closed his eyes to enjoy the breeze and fresh air in the forest.

"Su Mianyue, let your men set off. The ai family cannot stay here. If something happens to the ai family, you can wait for the emperor to use his troops to avenge the ai family." When Empress Dowager saw Su Mianyue, she immediately had confidence. To be exact, she was angry when she saw Su Mianyue, so she couldn't say anything soft.

"Then let Wanyan Lin attack the Yan Country. As long as Wanyan Lin has enough troops, he can fight me any way he wants." Ji Xun spoke softly. His woman was not an old lady who could choke.

Empress Dowager was speechless and remembered what had happened before.

Even without the ability to govern the country, they understood that Hengyuan was weak compared to the Hengyuan.

Seeing that Empress Dowager had lost his momentum, Ji Xun was too lazy to argue with her. Su Mianyue said at this time, "Empress Dowager should go back to the carriage to rest. If any of the soldiers from hengyuan country catch up, they will leave at any time. At that time, no one will have time to wait for Empress Dowager to get up."

"You!" Empress Dowager's face turned green with anger, but she thought about it and didn't say anything. Her life was in Su Mianyue's hands now.

"Empress Dowager, please go back. My lady needs to rest." Biwu stepped forward and made a gesture of invitation, but there was not much respect in his manner.

This old woman was aware of Su Mianyue's dilemma, but now she could not distinguish the situation.

With no outsiders around, Su Mianyue stopped trying to hold on and asked Ji Xun to help her sit down and rest for a while.

Recalling what she had seen before, she was still haunted. The negative impact of the war was completely unimaginable to Su Mianyue. When she set fire to the Hengyuan's rations, she wanted to make the war easier for the Hengyuan, but she did not expect to harm so many innocent people. This was not the same level of significance as the refugees who had escaped before.

Holding Su Mianyue's cool little hand, Ji Xun said in a low voice, "Yue, this is not your fault. The hengyuan kingdom should not have fought this war, the people or soldiers, but Wanyan Lin's exchange for power, these consequences should be borne by Wanyan Lin alone."
