Chapter 249: The Queen and Crown Prince Have Lost Weight

ghtforward person, so she didn't hesitate or act coy like An Xuetang. She sat down right away.An Xuetang asked Xiao Qin, "You came here suddenly today. Is something the matter"Xiaoqin nodded, “Althoug...The squad leader shook his head, put the things down and bowed to An Xuetang, "Reporting to Your Highness, the Prince is unharmed today."

"That's good, that's good."

She would ask him several times almost every day, whenever she had the chance to see Mo Yunjing, wanting to truly confirm that he was alright before she could rest assured.

After all, on the battlefield swords and guns have no eyes, and one moment of inattention could easily result in injury.

"Did you spill this rice, or did your prince eat it all"

The soldiers stammered, "Your Highness, the General ate every bite of the meal. We definitely didn't secretly pour it away. Please investigate, Your Highness."

An Xuetang thought he didn't have the guts to throw away the food she had cooked herself, but she was a little puzzled. "Didn't you say that your prince had a bad appetite before He didn't eat much for days, why has he finished all the meals these past few days"

The head soldier blinked, also a little confused. "Your Highness didn't eat much the past few days, but when the Madam made this meal, it seemed like Your Highness couldn't wait to come and eat."

An Xuetang frowned, "You wouldn't say that these dishes were made by me, would you"

"I dare not take credit for it, my lord. I'm only responsible for putting the food on the table. Before I could even speak a word to Your Highness, you began eating."

< An Xuetang thought seriously, perhaps her family Ajing was really starving! >

After learning enough for the day, An Xuetang returned to the army medical department.

She continued to bandage the wounds of these wounded soldiers, applying medicine. For some who were more seriously injured, she performed surgery despite the stares of others. Some even thought their arms or legs would be crippled forever.

Who would have thought, after being treated by An Xue Tang, they could fully recover Unless it was a particularly severe disability, An Xue Tang could cure them.

Thus, An Xuetang was so called "Divine Physician" by these soldiers in private.

In their eyes, this queen was just like Hua Tuo reborn, incredibly skilled. They felt that there was no illness or poison in the world that their queen couldn't cure!

"Zi Ling, what's wrong" An Xue Tang had just finished stitching a soldier's wound and turned to see Mo Jun Yi staring gloomily at the ground.

Hearing her voice, Mo Junyi came back to his senses. "Mother, it's nothing. Are you busy Old Man Liu asked us to eat something to fill our stomachs."

Upon hearing this, An Xuetang realized that she was indeed hungry. She took Mo Junyi's hand and went to wash it. The two of them found a quiet corner to sit down and eat.

Taking a bite of the hard, dry bread was difficult for Mo Junyi. He kept his eyes on the wounded soldiers and looked troubled.

An Xuetang handed him a bowl of soup and then said, "Zi Ling, if you have anything on your mind, tell your mother. Are these things too bloody for you Can't you bear to see them"

Mo Junyi pursed his lips and shook his head, "Mother, no."

"Huh"

"I just… I just can't understand why people fight. Why do countries wage war against each other Look, it hasn't even been long since the fighting started, and I've already lost count of how many wounded have been brought in. I can't even keep track of how many soldiers come in here only to die because there's nothing we can do for them… Mother… human life, is it truly so worthless"

An Xuetang thoughtfully looked up at the soldiers lying nearby. They weren't just wounded, they were seriously injured and unable to care for themselves.

This is the cruelty of war!

She hadn't told him yet that what he was seeing was just the tip of the iceberg. The truly bloody and horrifying scenes weren't here, but at the battlefield where mountains of corpses lay piled high, a sea of blood.

The soldiers who could be dragged back were still very lucky, those who died directly on the battlefield outnumbered these wounded by several times.

He was still young, so she hadn't told him the cruellest things. Right now, she just rubbed his head, "Zi Ling, you need to know that battles are unavoidable in this world, but we can minimize them as much as possible."

How to reduce

"It's very simple, unless one side becomes dominant and absorbs all surrounding countries, or a fair resource allocation system is in place, where countries collaborate to achieve mutual benefit and win-win outcomes. As long as it doesn't involve conflicting interests, and every country can obtain corresponding benefits, then wars will naturally decrease."

An Xuetang stroked his head, “Do you think the people of Lan Guo like war No… they certainly don’t. Their warlike nature is just forced upon them. If they don't fight, where would they find basic food to survive”

They live in a harsh environment with freezing temperatures and scarce food. They have to fight, rob and plunder to survive, so they must wage war. At first, they tasted the sweetness of conquest and grew bolder. However, if we could provide them with sufficient food without resorting to war, do you think they would still risk their lives fighting, robbing, and pillaging

Who is not afraid of death

Even the most skilled Blue Nation warriors are still human, they fear death too. If they weren't pushed to their absolute limits, why would they risk their lives for food

Wars these days... are mostly unavoidable!

Mo Junyi fell into deep thought after hearing this. How easy is it to achieve a win-win situation

The war lasted for over a month and finally ended with Lan Churon's defeat.

Mo Yunjing successfully retook the city that he was forced to cede in the last battle, while Lan Chu Xiao successfully ascended the throne as Emperor of Lan.

After knowing she had won, to avoid being discovered by Mo Yunjing that she and Mo Junyi had been in the frontline camp for a month, An Xuetang quickly brought Mo Junyi back to the city first.

Mo Yunjing still has some finishing work to do, and it's estimated that he won't be back for a day or two. When An Xuetang returned, she began to gather relevant people and rehearse lines with them.

> If Mo Yunjing comes back and asks later, if everyone's stories don't match up, then we'll all be exposed.

"Xiao Zhao, if the Prince asks about our meals and the Young Master's over these past few days, how would you answer"

"Your Highness, you and the young master have been preoccupied with the war at the front for days. This has led to poor appetite, and you've only been able to eat noodles all day. That is why Your Highness and the young master have become thinner."

An Xue Tang nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, you've said it very well. When my son A Jing asks, just answer him like this."

She didn't want to sound so miserable, but over the past month or so, she and Ziling had been too busy, and with no time for sleep, they both lost a few pounds.

She had to get her story straight with this group before Ah Jing got back. He'd definitely ask why she and Zi Ling were so thin.

Mo Junyi saw the shadow outside the tent. His eyes lit up slightly, then he blinked and looked at An Xuetang, "Mother, if my Fifth Uncle asks me what I've been doing and learning these days, what should I say"ho is good at concealing their whereabouts and tell him to deliver it to the prince as soon as possible.""Yes."Seeing Ning'er's departing figure, An Xue Tang pursed her lips. Farewell brought the pain...
