After the divorce, I wanted to give up, but the Prime Minister took me into his arms in the street

Chapter 174: The Coward

Ling Zhiyun's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Ling Mohui's heart.

Ling Mohui had a bewildered look on her face. She had no idea about the life-and-death struggle on the way home. That memory seemed to have been erased by time, leaving a blank.

Ling Zhiyun grabbed her shoulders with such force that Ling Mohui felt pain: "Ling Mohui! If you really want to leave, then do it quickly. Your attitude will only make it harder for him to let go."

There was a hint of sincerity and a barely perceptible sadness in her words.

"Ling Zhiyun, if you love him so much, then take practical action to fight for him and win him back in your own way. Why are you telling me what to do here? Do you think I like to be entangled and cling to him?"

Ling Mohui finally couldn't help it, and shook off Ling Zhiyun's hand, and left the place in big strides, leaving Ling Zhiyun alone, standing there with a complicated expression on her face.

Ling Zhiyun glanced at Ling Mohui's receding figure with a squint. Her gaze seemed to penetrate the thin air, carrying an indescribable chill.

Her eyes became deep and complicated in a moment, and a barely perceptible sneer flashed across her lips. She thought to herself, "Ling Mohui, since you are so determined, don't blame me for being ruthless for everything that happens next!"

Seeing that it was late at night and feeling a little tipsy, Ling Mohui decided to take the beautifully decorated carriage back home first. The lights were dim along the way and the night breeze gently brushed across her face, bringing a hint of coolness.

After arriving at the mansion, he fell into a deep sleep. All night long, his dreams were as sweet as honey, full of warmth and peace.

The first ray of sunlight filtered through the delicately carved wooden window and gently fell on Ling Mohui's eyelids. He slowly opened his eyes, and the silence around him seemed to be cut into pieces by the morning light. It was so quiet that he could even hear his own breathing.

At this time, Chuntang's lively figure was seen leaning against the window, holding a golden and crispy chicken leg tightly in his hand, with a satisfied smile on his face, enjoying this little happiness in the early morning.

"Oh, girl, you finally woke up!"

Chuntang's lips were still greasy, and he smiled with a very satisfied look on his face. "I'll go prepare breakfast for you. I guarantee you'll enjoy it!"

Ling Mohui's gaze passed Chuntang and swept past the door. The corridor in his memory should have been bustling with people coming and going, but today it was unexpectedly empty and quiet. Only a few wisps of breeze quietly passed by, bringing a hint of inexplicable coolness, which made him feel a little confused and uneasy.

As I stepped into the courtyard, an unusual smell hit me in the face. Fu Yansheng's door was wide open, but there was no one inside, leaving only silence and coolness in the room.

Ling Mohui couldn't help but frown slightly, and an indescribable premonition surged in her heart.

"Chun Tang, what happened here? Why can't I see anyone?"

There was a hint of heaviness in Ling Mohui's voice, and a hint of anxiety in her question.

Chun Tang's expression turned serious when he heard this. The relaxed expression on his face disappeared instantly and he sighed softly, "Last night, the Yanzhou army suddenly launched an attack and is now fighting with our army. Many people in the city have fled for safety."

"What about Prefect Xia and Xia Ranran? Did they stay to organize the defense?"

Ling Mo asked again, secretly wondering whether these officials could remain calm in the face of danger.

Chuntang nodded slightly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Their whole family ran faster than rabbits. I'm afraid they have already hidden in a safe place."

"You are a coward!"

Ling Mohui despised him in her heart, and then she thought of Fu Yansheng, "What about Fu Yansheng? Where is he? At this time, he shouldn't back down, right?"

Chuntang explained: "My son-in-law had just returned home last night when he was urgently recalled to the army. Although he is a scholar, he is well versed in military tactics. With him around, the King of Pingnan can rest assured."

Ling Mohui was about to say something but stopped herself, but a key plot in the original novel suddenly flashed through her mind, and she was startled.

No! The original novel mentioned that the enemy's deputy general took advantage of the chaos to set fire to the food and grass, causing the Beizhu Army to fall into an extremely passive situation. Even if they won in the end, they suffered heavy losses.

Could those deputy generals and soldiers be the ones Wei Ruoming brought back from the border a few days ago?

Thinking of this, Ling Mohui stood up suddenly and said firmly: "Quick, prepare the horse for me, I want to go to the military camp immediately!"

"Girl, the war is raging ahead. If you go there, you will only cause more trouble!"

Chuntang hurriedly dissuaded him.

"I am not a person who only knows how to enjoy life. I know medical skills and can save lives. At this critical moment, how can I stand by and watch? Hurry, there is no time to waste!"

Ling Mohui insisted on her own opinion, and her words revealed unquestionable firmness.

After saying that, she jumped onto the horse's back nimbly, whipped the whip, and the horse galloped towards the military camp like an arrow.

The riding training over the past few days has greatly improved her skills, and she can now travel at high speed with ease.

When they approached the military camp, they were stopped by the guards who were on high alert. Although the fighting was fierce on the front line, the inside of the military camp was orderly and disciplined.

"Excuse me, where is General Wei now?"

Ling Mohui asked anxiously.

"Mo Hui!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Ruoming came over. His face looked a little tired from days of fighting, but his eyes were still as firm as before.

"During war, you cannot enter or leave the military camp at will!"

Wei Ruoming briefly explained the reason, but seeing Ling Mohui's anxious expression, he immediately ordered the guards to let her pass.

"Wei Ruoming, I have something urgent to tell you!"

There was a sense of urgency in Ling Mohui's tone.

"What is it, Mo Hui?"

Wei Ruoming frowned, looking concerned.

Ling Mo looked around and after confirming that there was no one else around, she lowered her voice and said, "It's about the current battle situation."

When Wei Ruoming heard this, his face suddenly became solemn, and he said briefly and forcefully: "Follow me!"

Inside the tent, Ling Mohui stated her speculation directly: "Those lieutenants and soldiers you brought back earlier might have been deliberately planted in our army by the enemy. They might be planning some conspiracy."

"I'll notify Fu Yansheng right away."

Wei Ruoming responded immediately.

"What? They're in his hands now?"

Ling Mo was shocked when she heard this.

"Yes, Fu Yansheng is planning to detain them and interrogate them."

Wei Ruoming responded.

"It's too late. We must move the food immediately, just in case!"

Ling Mohui said hurriedly, her brows full of worry.

Upon hearing this, Wei Ruoming knitted his brows tightly together: "Are you worried that they will find a chance to escape and burn the food?"

"Yes, it's always better to be prepared!"

Ling Mohui nodded firmly.

Wei Ruoming realized the seriousness of the situation and responded decisively: "Okay, I'll take care of this!"

"There is one more thing I need your help with..."

Ling Mohui moved closer to Wei Ruoming and whispered a few words, her voice so soft that only the two of them could hear it.
