Chapter 279 Poisoned
On the seventh day of November, it was sunny and breezy.

The early winter in Shangjing is already very cold, especially in the morning. Although it is not a drop of water, whether it is breathing or talking, the air that is exhaled is thick like fog, a white ball, and it will take a while to dissipate.

But on this early winter morning, fifteen miles outside the Anyuan Gate in the west city of Shangjing, it was scorching hot.

Girls in red cotton jackets stood heroically in the cold wind, the main points of air combat yesterday Qingzhu and Princess Anle met with the generals overnight, and told them, everyone is now Gearing up and fighting high.

The take-off position was also calculated overnight. Here, the northwest wind is just enough to blow the hot air balloon to the south gate. Every ten feet or so, there is a temporary high tower. Busy soldiers.

Under the guidance of Princess Anle's personal guards, the windmills were shaken by the soldiers of the supply battalion conscripted by Princess Anle, and the huge cloth bags were lifted by the tower after being inflated by the blower.

The girls who have already been familiar with it open the valve and ignite the fire in one go.

Female generals and officers in armor rode tall war horses and ran among the hot air balloons, mobilizing them for the final battle.

When Dongyang broke through the heavy fog and sprinkled the first ray of sunlight on the earth, 150 hot air balloons slowly lifted into the sky, and the morning breeze took them to the south gate.

Whether it's King Ning's army or the defenders of Shangjingcheng, when they saw the huge unknown thing above their heads, their first reaction was to worship.

After all, it has never been heard that mortals can fly into the sky. So, those huge objects floating in the sky, could it be that the heavenly soldiers descended from the nine heavens?

So, who is this heavenly soldier here to help?

The soldiers prostrated themselves on the ground, guessing and praying...

This is a morning that has been talked about by storytellers of later generations for hundreds of years, this is a morning that has been sought after and praised by countless literati, and it is also a morning that countless heroes and soldiers yearn for.

After today, whether it is King Ning's army or the defenders at this time, everyone present is proud to have witnessed this moment.

However, the two people who should most witness this miraculous moment were not there.

On the fourth watch, Qingzhu handed Princess Anle a cup of specially brewed ginseng tea, and after Princess Anle drank it, she also drank a cup of ginseng tea with the same herbs.

Then, the two of them slept together until dawn on the soft chair in Princess Anle's big tent.

Even the loyal Sun Xiang and Feng Zhen didn't think about moving Princess Anle and Qingzhu from the soft chair to the comfortable bed, they just covered them with thick blankets.

Because, if it is moved to the bed, this matter may become a conspiracy.However, they fell asleep on the soft chair because the two of them were 'too tired' and wanted to take a short rest, but they overslept... No one can blame it.

When the sun broke free from the last shackles and completely emerged from the mist, Princess Anle rubbed her drowsy forehead and asked in a hoarse voice: "What day is it?"

"Back to the princess, it's already seven quarters of the hour." The guard who had been quietly guarding the tent responded in a low voice.

"Well, it's so late..." Princess Anle shook her drowsy head heavily, and pinched her neck, which was as stiff as a board, suddenly her hands froze, and she opened her eyes suddenly , Shouted: "What? It's already the seven quarters of the hour?"

While speaking, Princess Anle jumped up from the chair, and then sat back heavily.

My legs are so numb...

Princess Anle rubbed her calf which was numb as if it had been pricked by a thousand needles with one hand, and pushed the green bamboo with the other hand: "Qingzhu, wake up, wake up, it's seven o'clock!"

"Well, don't make noise, I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep..." Qingzhu mumbled a few words in a daze, then waved her hand unconsciously, like chasing flies, she turned to the side, ready to turn over.

then……

"Doctor Xia, be careful!"

"Qingzhu be careful!"

"Boom..."

"Ah! It hurts..."

Princess Anle and Princess Anle's personal guards stretched out their hands at the same time, trying to grab the green bamboo, but they were all in vain, causing the green bamboo to fall heavily to the ground.

Fortunately, there is a thick carpet on the ground, otherwise, Qingzhu would be smashed into nothing.

"It hurts...how did this bed become so small..." Qingzhu muttered, trying to get up with his arms propped up, halfway through the climb, he came back to his senses, raised his head abruptly, regardless of whether he was in front of him or not. Someone opened his mouth and asked quickly, "What time is it now?"

"Seven quarters of the hour..." Princess Anle said dejectedly.

"What! Why is it so late?" Qingzhu said, trying to stand up from the ground suddenly, who knew that her legs were also terribly numb, and she sat back heavily like Princess Anle.

Seeing Qingzhu's appearance, Princess Anle temporarily forgot what she was worrying about, grinned and laughed at Qingzhu.

"What's so funny, isn't it just that your legs are numb?" Qing Zhubai glanced at Princess Anle, and said angrily at Princess Anle, then looked at Princess Anle's personal guards, and quickly ordered: " Hurry up and prepare the washbasin with clean water, bring out the princess's horse, and prepare a fast horse for me."

"Yes!" The guard got the order and went out quickly.

After the guards went out, Qingzhu took out the silver needles, pricked two silver needles on the acupoint on the back of his calf, and then limped to Princess Anle.

"What are you doing?" Maybe she just woke up, she was still a little drowsy, and her mind was still a little slow, Princess Anle looked at Qingzhu's movements, and couldn't help asking.

"Why, we have already missed the time for Feifeng School to attack, of course we need to pack up quickly now, and ride a fast horse to the south gate to witness the most important moment." Qingzhu said, lifting Princess Anle's head involuntarily. On the calf, with the backhand, a silver needle was pierced on one side.

"That's right! I said I would go to battle in person, but I missed it!" Princess Anle thumped her feet and chest at the reminder from Qingzhu, patted the handguard of the soft chair, and said in great annoyance.

"It's useless to regret it now, how could you know that you just fell asleep like that last night." Qingzhu chuckled inwardly, with a look of annoyance showing on her face.

At the same time, she pulled out the silver needle from Princess Anle's leg, and said, "Take a few steps to see if your leg is still numb."

"Oh." Princess Anle nodded, stood up obediently and took a few steps, then turned to look at Qingzhu and said, "It really works, my legs are no longer numb."

"It's fine if it's not numb." Qingzhu responded to Princess Anle, and at the same time pulled the silver needle from her leg, then stood up, shook and retreated a little, and walked a few steps.

At this time, the personal guard came in with hot water for gargling and washing his face, as well as a face towel.
