Chapter 855 The Goddess Has a Golden Finger
Although the Xicheng Dynasty has not yet reached the point of devastation, the lives of the people have become extremely difficult.
But the rebels who had besieged Yucheng for many days were not good people either.
In the name of resisting tyranny, they committed all kinds of burning, killing and looting along the way. If they were allowed to attack Yucheng, the people in the city would be doomed.
Therefore, the generals defending the city were able to hold out for many days.
Keep going until Rongyu arrives.
King Jing Rongyu is now the only hope for the people of Yucheng and even all the people of Xicheng.
The same is true now.
After all, the reinforcements were far away from Yucheng, and even if they marched quickly, they would not be as fast as the rebels.
As night fell, countless torches approached Yucheng at an astonishing speed.
The rebels came prepared, with siege ladders and battering rams to break down the city gates.
The rebels attacked like a tide with incredible momentum, and seemed to be able to completely defeat the defense of Yucheng.
The defenders of Yucheng were at a clear disadvantage.
But the sight of King Jing standing on the city wall gives people peace of mind.
It seemed that as long as he stood there, Yucheng would never be breached.
The sounds of shouting and killing outside the city could be heard far away.
Shi Li had already been lying on the bed, ready to fall asleep. After listening for a while, she couldn't calm down, so she stood up, put on her clothes, and walked to the window.
As soon as he pushed open the window, he met the surprised gazes of the two soldiers guarding outside the door.
At this time, I have to speak and explain.
Shi Li nodded to the two of them and said, "I heard the noise outside, and I'm a little worried."
This is human nature. Not only him, but also the two guards were very worried.
But one of them still said firmly: "Goddess, don't worry. With His Royal Highness King Jing here, he will definitely not let the rebels attack Yucheng."
Everyone here has full confidence in Rongyu.
Shi Li pursed her lips, looked at the two soldiers who looked nervous and uneasy, raised her hand to close the window, and obediently returned to bed.
Tomorrow when Rongyu is not busy, she will find a chance to talk to him. It is too embarrassing to be called "goddess" all the time.
For the next three days, Shi Li didn't see Rong Yu.
He led the soldiers of Yucheng to defend the city all night, and finally waited for the long-awaited reinforcements at dawn the next day and defeated the rebels.
Afterwards, Rong Yu took advantage of the victory and personally led his team to pursue the defeated rebels. He killed eight or nine of them and captured them. The remaining one or two managed to escape, but they were of no use.
Rongyu won another beautiful victory with the least casualties.
He rode back to Yucheng on a pitch-black horse. All the people in the city went out to greet him despite the severe cold. Some sentimental people even prostrated themselves on the ground.
Shi Li couldn't see all this.
She didn't want to cause trouble for herself, so she stayed in the house quietly for the past few days.
When he was really fed up with waiting, he opened the door, walked around the corridor twice in front of the two guards at the door, and then turned back to his room.
The gold finger share of these two days was not wasted.
One was used to make the rebels' horses sprain their ankles as much as possible, and the other was used to allow Rongyu's side to find as many hiding and escaping rebels as possible.
This was the limit of what she could wish for after she had tested it.
[The anchor is crazy (well done)! 】
[Although the horse is not wrong, for the sake of the overall situation, just sprain your ankle a few more times! ]
[Other people’s anchors are clear streams, but mine are mudslides! I’m so proud, hahaha~]
Shi Li finally waited for Rong Yu to come back, stepped out of the room and went to greet him under the watchful eyes of two bodyguards.
Just then, Rong Yu raised his hand and took off the black iron mask that had been covering his face.
In the light golden sunlight, the young man's heavenly face is stunning no matter how many times you look at it.
But now there is a hint of fatigue on this face.
No matter how brave and skilled a man is, he is still just a human being after all, not a tireless god.
Shi Li restrained her astonished look, stopped, and swallowed the words she had prepared in advance.
What Rongyu needs to do most now is to rest, and the rest can be discussed later.
But Rongyu stopped beside her.
"goddess."
His voice was warm and clear, revealing a refreshing and pleasant sound. "I have wronged you these days..."
"I live well here. Why don't you wait until you're done with your big job before you come and help me. I'm not in a hurry!"
Shi Li interrupted him without thinking, and her unorganized words were so wild and unrestrained.
Rong Yu:......
"it is good."
He pretended not to notice Shi Li's embarrassment, nodded nonchalantly, and then gave further instructions to the two personal soldiers following behind him.
"Take good care of the goddess."
"Can you call me Shili?"
Shi Li couldn't stand the shame of being called "goddess" all the time, so she gritted her teeth and made her request.
"it is good."
Rong Yu nodded without hesitation, then walked past Shi Li.
He really needs to rest now, as there are still many things in Yucheng that need him to deal with one by one.
Shi Li turned around and watched his back gradually walking away.
I never expected that Rong Yu almost died when we met again.
