For His Royal Highness King Pu, the two masters and servants of the Wang family are almost insignificant. So, Li Hui simply made his own decisions and asked the prince to travel with him. His bullock cart was spacious and comfortable, with several layers of mattresses alone and hidden sacs to lean on. There are also fixed tables and cabinets in the corner, and fresh dim sum syrup is placed in it, which can be used by him at any time.

In such a casual environment, of course, it is impossible for the two of them to sit upright all the time. After a while, they all felt that it seemed a little stupid to hold the shelf again. After raising their eyes, they happened to look at each other, and the two of them immediately laughed in understanding. After completely abandoning the so-called etiquette rules, they became more and more comfortable, and they each relied on their hidden bags to talk about the world, which was extremely comfortable.

The old servant of the royal family followed the carriage on a horse, silently listening to the laughter inside. The maids sitting outside the car did not dare to disturb at will, so they had to whisper to each other quietly. The surrounding guards were clad in robes, and the drizzle hit them, steaming up a slight mist. The whole convoy moved along the long and winding post road, crossing the sometimes green and sometimes very difficult mountains.

Wang Zixian's friend is simply impeccable, no matter what he talks about, he can take it. Of course, he is not omniscient, and when he encounters a topic he does not understand, he will admit it very calmly, and will humbly and seriously ask for advice. However, sitting in the carriage, it is impossible for the little county king and Wang Langjun to talk and laugh all the time. During breaks, they would lift the curtains to look out at the scenery, and they would also order people to fetch game equipment to play.

Wang Zixian is very proficient in this elegant game, and Li Hui's chess strength can only barely fight with him, and the victory or defeat is usually between four or six. When they were bored, the two of them hid hooks and archers, and even threw dice to play chess, or took bows and arrows to shoot at the trees on both sides of the post road to see who could shoot more accurately, like throwing pots. As a result, in games such as hiding hooks and shooting shoes, the two had equal records, and Li Hui won the dice throwing chess -- as for shooting trees, it would be better not to mention them --

The little king who missed eight shots secretly thought: It must be the fault that he was bedridden for two or three years due to illness in his previous life, and his riding and archery skills have long been unfamiliar, and it is by no means that he has no talent for shooting! After recovering from his illness, he will grit his teeth and study hard, and one day he will be ashamed!

The two of them had fun like this, which surprised both Yan and Zhang's mother. Yan Shi listened to the laughter coming from the ox cart behind him, and sighed, "This is like a little Langjun." The two of them were a little rusty before, and although they seemed stable, they were not close enough. Being able to meet Wang Langjun should be regarded as the biggest gain of this trip. When you go back, you send someone to ask the old servant where the Wang family lives in Shangzhou, and give them a gift during the New Year's holidays. This friendship is rare, and Shangzhou and Junzhou are not far away, so they can't be broken lightly. ”

"Why didn't Your Highness remind Saburo-kun to prepare himself? Now that San Langjun is getting older, it is time to consider these people's sophistication. When he was in Junzhou, there was no Xiao Langjun worth dealing with, and San Langjun didn't care about this. Now that I have gone to Chang'an, I can't say that I will make friends with some people, so I have to be careful. Can't you keep letting His Highness worry about these things for him? Mother Zhang replied.

Yan Shi was stunned and sighed: "I don't worry about him, who else will take care of these for him?" Maybe you can't raise him to look like his grandfather, and you should teach him to bother. What's more, this is a friend exchange, so naturally he has to be attentive enough. Just raising Ling Shi and servants and handing over these chores to them, how can it show sincerity? ”

After three or four days of this, Wang Zixian couldn't stand it anymore, so he left the ox cart and went on horseback. Li Hui originally thought that talking to him across the carriage was fresh, but listening to the sound of horses' hooves outside, he couldn't help but feel a little itchy in his heart. He lifted the window screen, and the scenery outside the window was still a stretching mountain, but the prince on the horse was like the finishing touch.

Seeing him lying by the window, looking over with his eyes in a daze, the prince couldn't help but smile: "The king's cold should have been cured, right?" Dress thickly and then come out to ride, Her Royal Highness the princess will not blame. If you are bored in the ox cart all day long, you will be depressed, and it will not be possible to drink any medicine. ”

Li Hui has always felt that the age difference between the two is more than ten years, and he should be more calm and calm. Unexpectedly, after a few days, he gradually revealed a little childishness as if he had rejuvenated, but he had to be comforted by this young friend, and his old face couldn't help but blush slightly.

So, he sent someone to inform the Yan family, put on a crane coat and turned over on the horse. The two walked leisurely side by side, pointing at the surroundings with their horsewhips, and talking casually, and the difficult journey seemed to be fleeting.

"Zixian, according to the itinerary, when will we be able to leave Qinling?"

"In a day or two. The king saw that the mountain that had been stretching endlessly became steep, and after the cliff of the canyon in front of him, the back gradually flattened. ”

"If I pass by here next time and see this cliff, I will know that Shangzhou is ahead. By the way, I heard you talk about many places, but you never mentioned your hometown of Shangzhou. You might as well tell me, what are the scenery and romantic characters in Shangzhou? ”

Wang Zixian smiled slightly and began to speak. Suddenly, as if he had heard something, he looked up at the canyon ahead.

Li Hui also looked over, but did not notice anything unusual. However, when he tried to drive the horse forward, the horse that had always been very docile would not move. He clamped the horse's belly, reined in the reins, and whipped the whip in the air, but to no avail. When he was helpless, he raised his eyes and saw that the horses of several guards next to him had also stopped, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

The prince's expression was a little solemn, and after saying a few words to the old servant next to him, the old servant suddenly raised his head to the sky and blew a whistle. The long whistle echoed through the valley, and all the horses in the convoy stopped, no matter how much the groom whipped, but did not move. Li Tai and the Yan clan noticed the abnormality, and they both sent their cronies out to inquire, and the soldiers of the family affairs mansion and the tent house immediately surrounded the two masters and servants of the Wang family.

"Zixian, have you noticed anything unusual?" Li Hui asked. Of course, he didn't believe that the prince who met in Pingshui would have any plans. What's more, there are hundreds of guards and soldiers in the family affairs mansion and the tent mansion combined, what can they do with just their master and servant?

Before the prince could speak, he heard the ground shake suddenly, and the horses neighed and trampled back and forth restlessly. If it weren't for the old servants of the Wang family blowing their whistles to suppress them again, I'm afraid they would have already begun to flee out of control. Amid the panicked neighing of horses, someone shouted in panic: "The earth dragon turns over!" It's the Earth Dragon Turning Over!! The servants and maids were busy escorting Li Tai and Yan to get off the ox cart, and the sergeants from the family affairs and tent mansions quickly reacted and surrounded them.

At this time, Li Hui's bodyguard also hurriedly wanted to help him off the horse, however, the horse under him was extremely restless, raised his front hooves to trample on everyone, and rushed out. When it was too late, Wang Zixian immediately stretched out his hand and pulled him to his horse.

In the next moment, when the horse broke through the crowd of people who were avoiding it and rushed into the canyon in a panic, the sides of the valley suddenly collapsed, and countless earth and rocks rushed down like a waterfall. In an instant, the horse was buried in the earth with a wail, and was completely gone. The guards at the front of the convoy hurriedly avoided it, but the falling rocks injured many people.

However, in an instant, the canyon was completely blocked by the mudslide. The roar was incessant for a long time, and everyone was shocked into a cold sweat. If the convoy had not stopped, and the horses had not been stopped by the whistle of the old servants of the Wang family, I am afraid that more than half of the people would have been buried alive by the earth and rocks, or injured by falling rocks. The cars of Li Tai, Yan and Li Hui are also very dangerous.

Everyone got out of the car and dismounted, gathered around the three masters, and discussed what to do next. Li Tai insisted on clearing the earth and rocks as soon as possible and resuming the traffic on the post road, and the soldiers all agreed, but they did not agree to him staying where he was. Who knows if the nearby rocks will continue to collapse and fall in the future? Why not go back a few miles and wait to safety? Moreover, if you want to completely clear the post road, it will not be a day or two. It is better to clear the path for horses to pass first, and then find the soldiers of the nearby Zhichong Mansion to come and move the car.

"If it weren't for the Son's sacrifice, I'm afraid I would have died here today. But what's going on here? Will this mudslide turbulence still happen? In the midst of the turmoil, Li Hui's expression was still calm. Although he had never experienced such danger, he suddenly remembered that Lingnan Post had reminded them to be careful and explore their way. However, who would know that the collapse of the mountain and rocks will be in an instant, and it is simply impossible to prevent it?

"After many days of rain, the mud and rocks on the nearby hillside were washed away by the rain and collapsed." "You have to send someone up the hill to investigate it carefully to determine whether it is safe or not," said the prince. Before this place is cleared, the king should retreat a few miles and go to rest first. ”

"What about you? What's the plan? ”

"I have been trekking in the mountains and forests all year round, so I want to recommend myself to check the situation."

"It's too dangerous—"

"The king has nothing to worry about." The prince smiled at him, his brows full of indescribable confidence, "I will come back safe and sound before dark." And my old servant is also accustomed to walking this kind of mountain path, and it will never be fine. With that, he borrowed a sword and a bow from the guard beside him, said a word to a busy soldier nearby, and then took the silent old servant up the mountain.

Li Hui couldn't hide his worries and looked at their backs, and told the guards to pay attention to whether they returned in time, so he went to greet Li Tai and Yan. Yan was panicking, and he was categorically not allowed to take half a step out of her sight. So, he had to accompany his parents to retreat a few miles and look at the half-collapsed cliff from afar.

But it was said that the prince offered his master and servant to go around to the other side of the cliff, avoiding the small rocks that rolled down from time to time, and climbed up with difficulty. Deep in the mountains and dense forests, there should have been no human traces, but from time to time there were a few fresh footprints on the floating mud in the forest, which made the prince frown and sigh softly: "A group of foolish fools! ”

The old servant silently destroyed all these footprints, and suddenly, there seemed to be some strange sound in the forest-in an instant, Wang Zixian resolutely raised his bow and shot over, and after a muffled snort, a thick smell of blood came.

Wang Langjun, who had always smiled elegantly in front of Li Hui, slowly hooked the corners of his mouth, but his smile was a little cold.
