How To Survive as a Villain
The next day, Xiao YuAn woke up early in the morning, since he wanted to look at Yan HeQingâs battlefield appearance from a distance and feel how strong he was. However, who wouldâve thought that they would set out when the stars and the moon were still out in the night sky. So in the end, Xiao YuAn couldnât bid him farewell and had to return to his tent feeling a bit unhappy.
In the next few days, Xiao YuAn treated the soldierâs wounds as per usual, looking the same as always.
However, Deputy General Chen had something to say.
A lot to say!
Deputy General Chen hesitated to say it, but in the end, he couldnât help but stammer: âPhysician Xiao, whatâs this? I have a wound on my right shoulder, so why are you putting medicine on my arm?â
Xiao YuAn calmly and unhurriedly applied medicine to his shoulder, only to say next: âThe medicine can be used in many ways. It can be applied to the shoulder ten times, and be delivered to the arm once.â
Chen Ge: âPhysician Xiao donât worry, His Majesty will be back soon.â
Xiao YuAn chuckled. âIâm not worried.â
âYan HeQing has the aura of the Male Lead, so what should I be worried about?â
Chen Ge grimaced: âPhysician Xiao, my right shoulder is the injured one, not the left shoulder, and yet youâre still saying that youâre not worried. Youâve been restless the past few days, you-â¦â
Before he could finish saying what he wanted to say, Xiao YuAn took some medicine and pressed it on Deputy General Chenâs wound. Instantly, a miserable howl came out of his throat and his next words were immediately blocked.
Suddenly, from outside the tent, a young soldier lifted the curtain and screamed: âIs Deputy General Chen here?! General Huang is urgently requesting his presence!!!â
âWhat happened?!â Chen Ge stood up in a hurry. The young soldierâs face was extremely pale, and his forehead was full dripping with sweat as he rushed towards Chen Ge. Then he leaned over to his ear, and whispered a few words. Meanwhile, Xiao YuAn, who was cleaning the medicine jar, vaguely heard the words âHis Majestyâ and âfront lineâ. At this, he couldnât help but raise his head to look at Chen Ge, only to see his face suddenly turning blue!
âHow could this happen?!â Chen Ge stood up abruptly. He was so shocked that he didnât even pay attention to Xiao YuAn as he quickly followed the young soldier.
Chen Ge, with his upper body naked and his shoulders wrapped with cloth stained with blood, rushed towards General Huang Yueâs tent, where several Generals and Deputy Generals were still present. At that moment, Chen Ge ignored the proper etiquette and shouted in a trembling voice: âWhat happened?! What do you mean that the elite troops were ambushed by the enemy and the Emperor was killed? Where did you get this information from? Lying about military information without any confirmation is a huge crime!â
Huang Yueâs face was also extremely distorted as he scolded Chen Ge: âDeputy General Chen! I called you over here but I didnât summon you to yell! Calm down!!â
Chen Ge was still very agitated as he waved his arms and began shouting again: âHow can I calm down?! What do you mean His Majesty has died? Where on earth did this news come from?!â
Next to him, the other Generals came forward and patted Chen Geâs shoulder, trying to calm him down. Then, they explained the situation with a sullen face.
It turned out that Yan HeQing, who led a small elite team, originally wanted to launch a sneak attack on the defeated soldiers of the Eastern Wu Kingdom. However, who wouldâve thought that the enemyâs arrival to that Eastern Wu town was in fact a trap! Everything was done to make the Southern Yan Kingdom ease their vigilance, but because Yan HeQing was extremely cautious, this trap shouldnât have been a problem for him. But in reality, the enemy seemed to know everything about their tactics, managing to ambush Yan HeQing early on the road he mustâve traveled on. The elite team, which was supposed to sneakily attack the Easter Wu soldiers, had entered the enemyâs encirclement and was immediately surrounded by 100,000 elite enemy soldiers!
After hearing this, Chen Geâs body trembled and he didnât know what to do. He had to take several deep breaths before he could recover from the shock: âWhy donât we send troops to support them?â
Huang Yue shook his head: âItâs too late, the only soldier who could escape death said that he saw with his own eyes how the Emperor, in a desperate attempt to escape, fell off the cliff. Heâs⦠alreadyâ¦â Huang Yue sighed heavily and then continued: âThe Emperor has been ambushed by the enemy, so sending troops right now would be a careless move, and it will cause unnecessary casualties.â
The several Generals and Deputy Generals present at the moment took a long breath, everyone showing expressions of shock, grief and indignation.
At one moment, a General began to curse with an extremely angry face: âThereâs a spy in our barracks!â
âA traitor? A spy?â Chen Ge asked incredulously.
Huang Yue clenched his teeth and tightened his jaw for a long time before saying: âI shouldâve done it earlier⦠Hey, you donât need to worry, I already know who the spy is, and I wonât let him go. Please appease your mood first, we still have a few vicious battles to fight ahead of us. You must not feel dejected. The most important thing right now, is to think about how to stabilize the military situation and appease the morale of the army. Iâll inform General Xue about this and Iâll ask him how to deal with the Emperorâs affairs before making any decisions.â
