Chapter 1306
Mu Ran shook his head, "Of course I know this." I mean www.biquge.info "The tongue bit his lower lip, Mu Ran suddenly became nervous, clutched the corners of his clothes tightly, thought about the wording for a long time, and finally raised his head, looked at San'er's unfazed pupils, and finally asked, "I mean, are you really the eldest lady of the Lin family?"
A breeze blew into the house, and the candlelight in the house swayed weakly in the wind, and finally suddenly went out.
In the darkness, San'er's expression was suddenly unclear.
Later, it was time for the emperor to die and the whole country mourned, and at that time, Mu Ran's memory of San'er suddenly disappeared.
One after another the horses fell, spread on the yellow sand on the ground, and the low neighing echoed between heaven and earth, Mu Ran obviously felt the uneasiness of the white horse under him, and a flying body fell from the horse, and Jin Lian fell to the ground lightly.
But not all of them were like her, and with the wailing of the wilderness, countless people fell off their horses, or were thrown to the ground, and in the blink of an eye they were unconscious.
The horse under San'er also gradually became uneasy, and strengthened her forelimbs, as if she was silently protesting something, but she did not have such a powerful light skill as Mu Ran, and when the jujube red horse fell weakly for the last time, she stumbled and fell down like it.
San'er closed her eyes slightly, but at this time she only felt a softness in her waist, she was startled, and finally slowly opened her eyes, but saw Li Nianze flying up at some point, catching herself in time, she suddenly felt relieved and landed firmly on the ground.
All the horses fell to the ground and never got up again, but the rice barns full of rice grain were very strong, and the grain had not yet been spilled, but one by one they had already staggered and fallen into the sand, and the dust raised was so choking that people could not bear to look at it.
Without these horses, the whole team would not have been able to move an inch.
Mu Ran frowned, but he didn't know what to say.
It was Su Yu who leaned over and picked up something in his hand at this time, sniffed it gently, and then said lightly, "Someone sprinkled poisonous weeds in these sandy areas." ”
Mu Ran couldn't help but panic a little, since he had sown poisonous weeds here, it also proved that those people were around here.
It's just that she looks at it, now that she is in Jingzhou, presumably Lin Haoran has already placed thousands of troops here, and her own manpower is absolutely impossible to compete with, she didn't expect that Lin Haoran is well versed in the truth of "waiting for the rabbit".
Mu Ran thought so, as expected.
It didn't take long for the dust to be like a stormy wave, and the army was overwhelmingly overwhelmed.
At this moment, even the charming smile on the corner of Su Yu's mouth was retracted.
Mu Ran unconsciously tightened the corners of his clothes.
Chang'an City, Zhaoyang Palace.
"How could the emperor suddenly fall ill?" Qi Lu frowned when he heard the news, and quickly walked into the Zhaoyang Palace.
"It's not, it's good, so I started a burn, and I'm talking nonsense, and I'm going to ask Master Taifu to go in alone. The new father-in-law walked hurriedly, but he did not forget to say anxiously on the side.
Pushing the door, the emperor was lying on the bed with a pale face, but his brows were furrowed.
Xiuluan was lying on the side of the bed, crying prostrately, when she heard Qi Lu's familiar footsteps, she raised her head with red eyes, "Qi Lu, you must save your father!"
"Has the imperial doctor seen it?" Qi Lu asked in a deep voice, a few days ago, the emperor's body was still healthy, but now he actually said that he was sick, and he was still a serious illness that he couldn't afford to be sick, there must be something strange about this matter!
It's just that the few imperial doctors standing next to them just knelt on the ground in fear, and they seemed to be helpless.
"Wechen has been practicing medicine for many years, and I have never seen such a bizarre pulse!" "After all, Imperial Physician Wang is the emperor's confidant, and his words are somewhat credible after all, "Now Wechen has prescribed a few medicines, and he has stabilized for the time being, but if he says that this is a radical cure, I am afraid it will ......"
"I'm afraid of what?" As soon as Xiuluan heard the imperial physician swallowing like this, he only glared at him viciously, "Don't say bad things about your father, your father will live a long life, and his life will be the same as that of heaven!"
The imperial doctor was already hesitant, and when he heard the princess's words, he didn't dare to say anything more, but continued to shrink his body, lowered his head, and didn't say a word.
"Xiu...... Xiuluan ...... "Who knew that at this time, the emperor suddenly called Xiuluan softly, but his voice was hoarse and weak.
"Father, Xiuluan is here. Xiuluan clenched the emperor's thin big hand, with teary eyes, "Father, you will definitely be fine." ”
However, the emperor just smiled softly and continued to say with difficulty, "I have something to say...... Individually...... Qi Lu. ”
"Your Majesty!" Qi Lu leaned over respectfully.
Although Xiuluan was worried about the safety of her father's body, but at this time, she was helpless and could only retreat, but she secretly gave Shen Shu a look.
Shen Shu...... Also...... Step back too. Who knew that the emperor said at this time.
No matter how helpless Mu Ran was, he could only retreat respectfully.
"Wechen is here!" Qi Lu leaned over.
Seeing this, Qi Lu hurriedly helped him, put the pillow behind him, tucked the quilt corners, and then respectfully took a few steps back and stood up in an orderly manner.
The emperor finally nodded with satisfaction, "I will be relieved that I will hand over Xiuluan to you." ”
"Your Majesty. Qi Lu took a deep breath and seemed to have discovered something, "Your Majesty, you already knew?"
"It's all my son of a. The emperor sighed deeply when he said this, "I own body, who else knows better than me, when he coaxed me to say that at that time, I also had a period of time, but I didn't know that he actually mixed this poison into the medicine, although the poison was only a slow attack, I also asked the elixir, but now, I am afraid that I can't hide this poison." ”
"Why did the emperor say such depressing words. At the beginning, Lin Haoran tortured the emperor like that, and he was able to make a compromise, and survived, but Qi Lu didn't understand why the emperor gave up on himself like this now, so he had to say sharply, "Qi Lu should be a wise man from all over the world, and he will definitely be able to find the antidote." ”
"That's it, that's it. The emperor shook his head, "People live for a lifetime, and if you can find a few people who are really good to me, that is also my blessing, I went to save it, and now the war is raging, and Chang'an will be flustered in the near future. ”
"Has the emperor ever thought about Xiuluan?" Qi Lu frowned and said coldly, even if he didn't think about the common people in the world, he should think about Xiuluan, "The emperor is gone, no matter what, it's just that Xiuluan has no relatives and no reason in the palace now, and she has no power of her own, your emperor, if your old man goes, how can you call her!"
"Xiuluan. Thinking of this precious daughter, the emperor couldn't help but feel distressed, and muddy tears finally fell in his not very clear eyes, embedded in the wrinkles on his face, and the emperor smiled with a sad face, "Qi Lu, isn't there you? I originally wanted to put Xiuluan in your hands!"
"Your Majesty. It was clear that he had explained the aftermath, but Qi Lu just stood with his hands down, word by word, and said decisively and decisively, "Weichen is afraid that it will be difficult to obey his fate, the princess lost her mother at a young age, and the prince has ill intentions, the emperor really can't bear to let her be unaccompanied in the palace? What's more, now the prince is ready to move, if the emperor has any accident at this time, he will definitely take advantage of the situation, if the prince sits on the throne at this time, the emperor's previous efforts will be in vain." ”
"I understand. However, as if the emperor had expected him to say these words, the expression on his face was still unwavering, and he just said lightly, "So I have something for you." ”
As soon as the words fell, Qi Lu seemed to finally understand the emperor's thoughts, his pupils shrank suddenly, but his body was motionless, but he was thoughtful and had a complicated expression.
Thousands of miles away, the yellow sand is all over the sky.
Looking at the smoke, the wolf smoke is chaotic.
The withered yellow wind blew Mu Ran's hair, and her black hair fluttered messily in the wind, as if she was in a messy mood in an instant.
But the people are getting closer.
The yellow sand faded, Mu Ran finally saw the figure of the person who came, under the silver armor, General Qiao stood on horseback with a hideous face, his facial features were exquisite, but the narrow scar that spread from the center of his eyebrows to the corners of his mouth made Mu Ran feel terrible cold even when he saw it under the blue sky and white sun.
"General Joe. Su Yu shook the folding fan in his hand lightly, but the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more stiff, and his voice was unprecedentedly low.
"Su Yu, you dare to appear in front of General Ben. As soon as General Qiao saw Su Yu, his already fierce and vicious face became more and more terrifying at this moment, like a bull's head and horse face in hell, only to hear him snort coldly, "Today, General Ben will definitely make you pay for what you have done!"
"General. Soon Su Yu regained his previous appearance as usual, just slightly lowered his head and looked down at the weeds in the sky, looking at General Qiao and his party who were just standing far away, and then smiled, "Who would Su Yu do to get along with such a vicious way, it turned out to be a general!
"Hmph, Su Yu, so far, are you still here to catch your breath if you don't quickly lead to death?" Seeing that Su Yu was talking so lightly, General Qiao said more and more ruthlessly, "If it wasn't for the general you dealt with, I lost my wife and children, as well as my appearance, and now I wouldn't have to stay in Jingzhou, a ghost place, it's really self-inflicted, you can't live, and now you have finally fallen into the hands of General Ben, and you won't die!"
I didn't stop much along the way.
After Mu Ran fell asleep that night, Lu Chuan whispered a few words with the qin, and then went back to the room with the guy in his arms.
When Mu Ran woke up in a daze the next day, it was a bumpy ride in the carriage. After days of tiring travel, when the group arrived in the South China Sea, Mu Ran lost three pounds.
"Wait a minute...... How...... Don't you see the sea?" Mu Ran yawned, staring at an empty city in front of him, and his face was even more strange.
However, the eyes of others looked at him more and more strangely.
"Can you eat a wife by eating wife cakes?" Li Changan shook his head and walked over, his hands behind his back, completely hating iron but not steel.
"So isn't the South China Sea the sea?" Mu Ran opened his mouth, feeling that he might have opened the door to a new world.
However, everyone laughed very unkindly.
"Oh, if you stand on top of this tower, you can see the South China Sea in the distance. Lu Chuan couldn't help but chuckle, gently rubbed Mu Ran's soft hair, and hugged him into the city, "The South China Sea is also a rich land, and the people will not drift on the sea, they will always settle down on the ground." ”
On the side of the South China Sea, there is the prosperous Gangneung City, which is rich in things and people, and it is the only place for the people to live and work in peace and contentment.
However, after the death of the old city lord, the new city lord Yang Jian was greedy and cruel, not only harsh on taxes and miscellaneous taxes, but also took the South China Sea outside the Gangneung City embankment as his own, and imposed high taxes on ships.
However, the South China Sea is the main road for traffic, and the Jiangling Port outside Jiangling City is wide and deep, and it is the hub of many trunk roads.
Yang Jian was greedy by nature, and seeing countless gold and silver tickets draining from his eyes, he was willing to give up.
Since the road of commerce and trade has been blocked by him, Yang Jian has tens of thousands of elite soldiers who are good at naval warfare, he has long been not satisfied with the small field of the South China Sea, if he can use this to grab the position of the city lord of several nearby small cities, he will be able to live a few more years of happy life.
Although Yang Jian is greedy, he also has his means, otherwise he would not have succeeded in expanding his territory in the midst of the people's poor life, so far, his true ambition is the human manifestation.
Where is he willing to be the little city lord of this side, he is swallowing this great country step by step!
However, Yang Jian forgot that he was just a businessman after all, and when he first collected taxes, the government and the opposition only treated him as a humble merchant eunuch Yang Jian, stupidly trying to raise tariffs, and finally reaping the consequences, and would stop. I don't want this ignorant guy to use the South China Sea Talisman to try to carve up this huge country.
Emperor Da, I don't know what temper you have!
In short, once the court learns the news, it will not sit idly by.
And it was because of this that Lu Chuan was ordered to go to the South China Sea.
Today's Gangneung City is already in a mess, the city gate is dilapidated, sparsely populated, like a withered old man, as far as the eye can see, Mu Ran can hardly imagine that this was once a rich city comparable to the imperial capital.
Fortunately, Yang Jian was stubborn and self-serving, and after occupying the neighboring city, because the people of Jiangling City left one after another, it was no longer as prosperous as it was back then, so he abandoned his own city and entered the neighboring city.
I didn't want to, but because of this, I gave General Bai, who was one step ahead, a chance to set up camp.
