As soon as he heard what I asked them, Song Xuan almost immediately wanted to speak, but he glanced at Pei Yuanxiu and Nangong Jinhong next to him, and still gritted his teeth and endured it, while Nangong Jinhong was silent for a while, and saw that Pei Yuanxiu didn't really want him to hide what I meant, so he said: "I don't see clearly who is in this team. ”

“……”

"But—"

"But what?"

"Looking at the strength of those guards, ...... the capital is in chaos, and there is only one person who they want to protect strictly."

Hearing him say this, my heart sank.

Could it really be Pei Yuanhao?

Only the emperor will have the strongest guards by his side, I thought that they would be able to leave smoothly after leaving the capital, but I didn't expect that they would be intercepted by Nangong Jinhong in this place.

Now they retreated to the mountains.

Wonderful words, are you also with them?

I hurriedly asked, "Then did you see the wonderful words?" Is my 'daughter' in there too? ”

Nangong Jinhong hesitated this time, he glanced back at Song Xuan, although the two may not know each other, but the battle just now, coupled with the current situation, they all know a little bit of the other party's identity, Song Xuan also waited for him to look at himself, and then hesitated and said: "Miss Yan, I don't seem to see any children among those people." ”

I breathed hard and asked, "Really?" ”

He nodded solemnly: "The lieutenants below have also noticed, and there are no children." ”

“……”

"Not only are there no children, but there are no ordinary 'girls'."

“……”

This time, I was a little stunned.

Although the capital is not like Cangzhou and Tianjin before, almost all the people have 'left', but I can know that they are ready to evacuate, especially in the palace, except for some inconspicuous palace 'women' and little eunuchs, 'guards', almost all the people have left, then, I guess Pei Yuanhao should have taken Chang Qing and them together.

But why now, there are no 'women' in that group......

Could it be that Chang Qing is taking a different path? Or are they not together?

I felt that something was wrong, but I really couldn't figure it out, so I could only look up at the mountain.

This area is the remnant vein of Yanshan, different from the open and flat of the capital, the mountains are undulating and the terrain is dangerous, and this mountain, there is almost the only independent peak in this mountain range, the mountain is not precipitous, and there is no towering height, but to attack such a mountain, there are not enough of their people, not to mention that there are already strong martial arts 'guards' among those people, of course, it is a difficult thing.

However, since they didn't see the words in it, while it might be a good thing for me, then they might have no scruples at all.

My heart is tight, I am afraid that the next moment, Pei Yuanxiu will give the order to attack.

Who knows, what you are most afraid of, what is coming.

Pei Yuan said: "Are you surrounded below, closed?" ”

Song Xuan hesitated for a moment before he said: "There is a river behind the mountain, and the river surface has not yet frozen, but this weather is difficult for ordinary people to cross." ”

Pei Yuanxiu glanced at him, and then looked up at the mountain.

Obviously, he wasn't really reassured.

If the mountain is not completely surrounded, it is possible to be broken through, which is the same reason as being evacuated by these people when he was in the capital, he can't accept such an obvious flaw there.

Nangong Jinhong looked at him and frowned, and said softly: "Do you still want to transfer troops?" ”

As soon as he heard his words, Song Xuan's eyes were nervous.

I said in a cool voice, "Didn't you say before that Evil Hou Qi's people were also nearby?" ”

As soon as he heard the name of Evil Hou Qi, Pei Yuanxiu himself frowned, he tied the portrait and said: "We can't stay outside the capital for too long, this place, it's best to fight quickly!" Send a team of people to explore the way first! ”

Nangong Jinhong immediately turned around and gave orders, and one of his lieutenants hurriedly ran back, and in the distance, I had already seen a group of men and horses over there raise torches and start walking up the mountain road.

Next, he gave a few orders one after another, several deputy generals behind Nangong Jinhong, and Song Xuan all received orders, seeing that they were all almost gone, Pei Yuanxiu turned his head to Nangong Jinhong and said, "You-you're also tired, let's rest tonight." ”

Nangong Jinhong also turned his head to look at him.

In the firelight, I saw that the eyes of these two men flickered slightly, and Nangong Jinhong, a scheming and calculating person who was as moody as a fox in winter, finally had a little emotion in his eyes, but it was a rare little real tenderness, looking at his son.

Although now, the truth is not yet in the light of day.

He was silent for a moment, and then said in a hoarse voice: "The matter has not been resolved, and I can't stop." ”

Pei Yuanxiu said: "You came from such a far away, you must not have had a good rest, and you haven't eaten." ”

“……”

This sentence was neither an order nor a persuasion, but it was just a question, as if to make Nangong Jinhong unload all his worries.

He was silent for a while before he said, "Okay, I'll sit down for a while." ”

“……”

"You need to get the crossbowmen ready. They're — there's a good chance they're going to jump over the wall. ”

“……”

"No matter what, you can't let them go here!"

Pei Yuanxiu nodded, and asked people to accompany Nangong Jinhong to leave, and then the order was passed, and immediately, a team of strong crossbowmen followed over and made preparations.

It wasn't until this time that he turned around and saw me standing not far away.

When he met my gaze, his expression seemed to be a little dazed.

I thought, at that moment, he really had forgotten that I was right here.

So when he saw me, he himself was a little hesitant, thinking of what he had just said, and after a moment of silence, he came up to me and whispered, "Why don't you go back to the car?" ”

“……”

"You know by now that the magic words are not in the mountains."

“……”

"You don't have to worry about it."

“……”

I didn't speak, but after a long silence, my eyes slowly looked at the mountain behind him, the group of pathfinders had already gone up the mountain, and the light emitted by the fire that was originally in their hands soon disappeared into the dense woods on the mountain, as if swallowed by the night, and the light in my eyes also dimmed slightly.

I said, "No matter what I say today, you ...... You and him, there must be a result, right? ”
