Chapter 440: The Road to Gold
"What? No, haven't I already sent a letter back to my father, saying that I want to take Mu Xi back in person?"
"His Royal Highness the Prince, things have changed, the emperor is worried about the long nights and dreams, and there will be trouble halfway, so he specially sent me to hurry up to deal with this matter, please forgive the prince. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
"No, you can't go anymore, you can return immediately, reply to your father, I have taken Mu Xi on the way back to the palace, but the speed of the carriage is not as fast as the horse, as long as my father waits a few more days, I will bring Mu Xi back, please rest assured." ā
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the emperor is worried that you will not let go, so he ordered his subordinates to come with an edict, and asked the prince not to embarrass his subordinates, and hand over the hostages to his subordinates for escort. ā
The conversation stopped suddenly, and then I heard the sound of footsteps and came to the front of the car, the door curtain was lifted, and the two big hands worked together to pull Mu Xi down.
In front of Wan Yan Hao, a general stared at Mu Xi carefully for a long time, nodded slightly, and waved his hand very satisfied, "That's right, it's this person, come, tie up, and escort him into the prisoner car." ā
"Slow!" The two guards got the order, pulled out the thick rope from their waists, and were just about to tie it to Mu Xi's body, when they were suddenly stopped by Wan Yan Hao's loud voice, and quickly stopped.
"Escort is escort, why are you tying her up?" Wan Yan Hao asked the general angrily.
The general pulled a smile like a hob, "Prince, you also know, this escort prisoner also has rules for escorting, and his subordinates are acting according to orders, and they don't dare to mess with the rules." ā
After speaking, he turned to the two guards and scolded angrily, "What are you in a daze, don't tie it up and take it away, don't stand here and make the prince unhappy." ā
The two guards got the order, looked at Yan Hao, looked at the generals, gritted their teeth, pulled out the rope and tied it up to Mu Xi.
It was too late, it was too fast, and suddenly, I only heard the sword come out of its sheath, and under a cold light, a miserable scream resounded through the night sky.
Everyone looked for a sound in surprise, Wan Yanhao raised the knife in his hand, looked at the blood flowing downward, and smiled coldly on his face.
And in front of him, the general who was still fighting wits and courage with him just now, at this moment, fell in a pool of blood, only the weak convulsions of his limbs remained, and he didn't struggle a few times, and he died in the terrifying eyes of everyone.
"This kind of general who can't even look down on a weak woman, it's really a mistake to keep, I will explain to my father what happened today, all the mistakes are done by this incompetent person, others, you can rest assured, from now on, everything here will be taken over by this prince for the time being, who has any objections?"
Wan Yan Hao raised the treasure knife in his hand, swaying it from side to side, reflecting the cold light of the Dao Dao, reflecting on his face, which looked even more murderous.
The two little guards beside Mu Xi, holding Mu Xi's hands at the moment, were trembling, and after hearing Yan Hao's words, the two of them had weak legs and knelt on the ground.
"Two things that don't know whether they are dead or alive, the woman of this prince, are you also touching them when you say they will touch them?" Wan Yan Hao waved his knife and pointed at the top of the little guard's head.
"Too ~ too ~ son, spare your life" The two little guards knocked their heads like chickens pecking rice, and they couldn't say anything about begging for mercy.
Wan Yan Hao walked in front of Mu Xi, dropped the knife in his hand, tore off the rope on her arm, and when his eyes looked at her, he was full of guilt, "Okay! For the sake of Miss Yan's kind-hearted feelings, this prince, today, I will also send a show of mercy and spare you for the first time, but from now on, you have to make up for it! Serve Miss Yan along the way, like serving your own mother, do a good job, spare your lives, once there is another mistake, I will make you regret that you made a mistake in front of me!"
Although he said it to the two guards, his gaze was still on her face.
Mu Xi gently rubbed her arms that had just been twisted into pain, looked back at Wan Yan Hao without changing her face, and responded to him silently, her mind would not change, and she would never compromise and retreat.
Wan Yan Hao's gaze swept across Mu Xi's face, and turned to the two guards who were constantly kowtowing to thank him, "You say, which car is suitable for Miss Yan?"
The two guards paused slightly, and then hurriedly responded, "Ah, ah~ Oh, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, this prisoner, ah no, ah, this person, ah no, the girl is sick and unfit to sit in the prison car, and the prisoner dies on the way, it is our dereliction of duty, and we will be punished by the emperor, so, so, you should take a carriage, take a carriage, yes, it is appropriate to take a carriage." ā
Wan Yanhao nodded with satisfaction, "Well, in that case, why are you still kneeling here, why don't you hurry up and serve your own mother? On such a cold day, let her stand in the cold wind like this, do you want to be unfilial?"
The two guards climbed in a row, and finally stood up, came to Mu Xi, saluted deeply, and prayed repeatedly, "Dear mother, please get in the car and rest." ā
A farce is over, back to the carriage, the autumn night, there is already a trace of coolness, thin clothes, difficult to resist the invasion of the cool breeze, Mu Xi leaned in the car, hugged his arms tightly, no need to think deeply, can be expected, this time to Jinguo, it will inevitably be another life and death disaster.
I don't know where Yu Lang is now, does he know where he is? It would be nice if Nan Xue and Ke Leti were here, they were the best at this kind of search for people, but unfortunately, they were sent by her to do more important tasks.
I used to feel that I already had many helpers around me, but now it seems that I was wrong.
Wen Libi is the general of Da Liao, and Shi Yi is the head of the palace, although they are very loyal to Mu Xi, but they are in political positions, they can't always give her support and help, and it is difficult to quench her thirst from far away.
Nanxue and Keleti, although they are also loyal, were mistakenly sent by her to do a long errand, she was too confident that having Yulang and Xiaoxia by her side was enough to cope with everything.
At this time, she is no longer the identity of Da Getel, presumably Nan Xue and Xiao Yun will no longer sense her danger, yes, where is Xiao Yun? If he can, at least he can help her pass on the news and find someone to rescue her.
The reality is cruel in front of her, and her arrangement of her assistants is not safe, so as to put herself in a dangerous situation, fortunately, Wan Yanhao's nature is not bad, at least on the way, she is still safe.
However, the limit of safety will be terminated when it reaches the gold country.
Thinking about it, Mu Xi leaned on the carriage, and was about to fall asleep in a daze in the violent shaking, when he suddenly heard the news of 'camping and resting' from outside the carriage.
The carriage stopped, and the two 'sons' who had just received it diligently helped her get out of the car, sent her to the bonfire, and set up a simple tent for her alone according to Yan Hao's request.
was about to get into the tent to rest, Wan Yanhao came to her side and whispered, "Tonight, don't sleep too deeply." ā
