Zhou Ming called a palace guard to get into the car and asked about these days.

The guard didn't dare to hide it, and besides, the prince only ordered them to quietly escort the prince back to the army, and he didn't say anything.

His knowledge is also limited, and in a few words, he will tell everything he knows.

"You go out!" Zhou Ming saw that he couldn't ask anything more, and waved his hand to let the guards leave.

Zhou Ming was beaten with thirty sticks, and the skin on his back was open, and he felt pain when he moved. The best gold sore medicine can make the wound heal, but it can be more painful than ordinary medicine.

More painful than the wound was his heart.

In the army, he received a letter from Xie Huiling. In the letter, Xie Huiling told him that Li Chengen had dedicated a picture of a celestial maiden, and the woman in the painting was Yuxiu. And as soon as Emperor Wu saw the portrait, he hung it in the dormitory. Emperor Wu also summoned King Cheng, and the prince recommended him to lead his troops to the north on the second day.

Zhou Ming only felt a little ridiculous. He was still leading his troops to the Northlands to fight against the barbarians, but the saint hung the portrait of his sweetheart in the dormitory.

The Zhou family has defended the territory for the country for generations, and the royal family has served their loyalty like this?

And counting the days, when his father recommended him to go on the expedition, did he already know what Emperor Wu meant?

He just felt that it was all fake.

How could his father acquiesce in giving up this prospective daughter-in-law knowing his intentions for Xiuxiu? But why did his father send Luo An to the army? Is he afraid that he would hear some news?

Emperor Wu knew that this was his fiancée, and he would rather resist the decree and be punished than marry someone else for the sake of Xiuxiu, but he even gave birth to him?

Zhou Ming couldn't believe it, he felt that he had to go back to Beijing to see it in person, he couldn't trust other people's words, even Luo'an Luoping, he didn't believe it. Regardless of the dissuasion of others, he rushed back to the capital day and night.

On the way back to Beijing, he heard about the punishment of Prince Cheng's advice to the Heavenly Maiden, which made him happy and worried.

Happily, my father finally opened his mouth to defend himself and Yuxiu.

What worries Emperor Wu is that he scolded his father in public, and he is bound to win Yuxiu.

When he returned to Chengwang's mansion, he didn't think about what to do, and wanted to hear his father's and mother's plans.

However, his father actually drove him out of Beijing after practicing his family law, and Xiuxiu had already been welcomed into the palace.

Zhou Ming lay in the carriage and slammed the wall of the carriage again with hatred. What should he do?

That's the saint, the king of a country, what else can he do but accept his fate?

Zhou Ming told himself so in his heart.

However, another voice came out: Why did the faint king who snatched the wife of his minister accept his fate?

The two voices alternate.

One persuaded him to be loyal to the king, and the thunder and rain were all graces of heaven, so he could only accept his fate.

Another voice said that the people are important to the monarch and light, Emperor Wu has been blindly obsessed with the art of immortality over the years, allowing the demon way to harm people, the so-called blessing and building a large number of buildings, and the national treasury is empty, but he would rather deduct the military salary than lose the Taoist priest, how can there be a way to be a king?

The two voices made him dizzy. After being beaten, he was already weak, and he couldn't help falling asleep in a daze.

In my dream, I seemed to see a strange self. His father died in battle, and he worked hard in court. Kill the king, support the young master, and stand alone in the world.

"How dare you kill the king?" seemed to Xie Huiling's voice in the dream, asking himself.

How did you reply to him?

"The rotten wood is unbearable, why not choose the jade carving?"

Zhou Ming was frightened by his dream words and woke up, the carriage was still walking unhurriedly, and it was dark in front of him.

It should be night.

His body didn't hurt so much, it should have been the guards who had re-medicated him. Fortunately, he was in good health and did not have a fever.

After two days of wound healing, you should be fine.

The guards outside the car didn't know that he had woken up, and whispered as he hurried, "Do you say that the prince of the world has been wronged by this trip? The ladies of the Yan family have been brought into the palace, and they will have no reputation if they come out again, right?"

"What do you know? This is called ...... That's right, it's called the love of children. ”

"That's the emperor, who has ever fought for it?"

"The matter of the prince is the same as the old prince before. I heard my father say that in the past, the old prince also made trouble with the army and ran back halfway. ”

"Old Wang, where did you hear that?" "Lao Chengwang's military orders are like mountains and law enforcement is ruthless, so he would do such a thing?

"It's true. Don't say it, the prince is really a bit like the old prince. That time, it seemed that the old prince ran back secretly, and he was also subjected to family law and sent back to the army. ”

"It's true, I've heard my grandfather say it. also said that after leaving Beijing that time, the old prince went to the battlefield, fought bravely, and did not leave any Beiban armor killed. The third guard interjected, "But the old prince was also seriously injured that time." ”

Zhou Ming lay in the carriage, quietly listening to the four people outside, guessing why Lao Chengwang returned to Beijing.

He remembered his grandfather's arrogant voice, and in his dream, he looked like his grandfather.

Grandfather said that he had failed the woman, wasn't he, like himself, at that time, he wanted to take people away when he returned to Beijing?

Zhou Ming is a spirit, it turns out that when he returned to Beijing, he wanted to take Xiuxiu away?

I also want to be like my grandfather, regret it all my life, and think about living up to the word for the rest of my life?

He shook his head and felt in his sleeve pocket, which contained a letter written by Xiuxiu. She wrote and crossed out the eight words "Jun is like a rock, and the concubine is like a reed", and Zhou Ming still recognized it.

Xiuxiu only said that she should be careful, she knew about the Heavenly Maiden at that time, right?

Does she not want to worry herself, or does she not believe in herself?

Zhou Ming felt that he wanted to ask Yuxiu in person, but she was in the hellish Heavenly Maiden Palace, and she wouldn't be able to ask her for a while.

Zhou Ming slowly sat up by himself, "Come on, is there any water?"

When the guards outside the car heard the voice, they hurriedly took the water bladder and jumped into the carriage, and watched Zhou Ming sit up, "Master, why are you up?" ”

Zhou Ming took the water bladder in his hand and took a few sips. The cold water went into his throat, and the cold made him more conscious.

"Where have we been?"

"It's about a few hundred miles away from Beijing. The guard gave a cautious peek and said vaguely.

As he spoke, he looked at it, obviously afraid that the prince would run back to the capital again.

"Has the rooster crowed?" Zhou Ming didn't care about his thoughts, and asked directly.

The guard hesitated, but still told the truth, "If you go back to your master, the chicken song post has not yet arrived." ”

"I asked Luo Ping to lead people to wait at the chicken station. When I got to the rooster station, wake me up. This is an important matter, my father only asked you to send me back to the army, and didn't say that I was not allowed to do things on the road, right?"

Zhou Ming was afraid that he would be drowsy, so the four guards kept walking forward, looking at the guards and asking a question.

"No, the prince only said that he wouldn't let you go back...... Go home, send you back to the army, nothing else is said. ”

"Okay, then call me at the rooster station. The other guards were all at the post station, and it would be reassuring to have them along the way. ”

The guard saw Zhou Ming's expression as usual and agreed. I really don't understand that the prince and the princes will be too peaceful if they leave the king without permission and be beaten and tossed?
