Li Xiang stopped in the artemisia grass and turned around to give his hand to Zhao Yuanyi. Then he gestured to the guards around him. The guards stood in a circle on their horses, swords in hand, and stood in battle.

After Zhao Yuan walked into the protective circle surrounded by the guards, he saw two dirty, but neatly dressed women snuggled on a flattened straw mat, their faces were painted with charcoal ash, and they were so black that they couldn't see the original appearance clearly. However, one of the women can be seen in a coma, while the other is a little younger, no more than twelve or thirteen years old.

"Yingxue!" When Zhao Yuan called out this name, his voice trembled a little. He didn't expect that when he had no hope and his heart was like a dead wood, he would still be able to see his little daughter appear in front of him alive! At that moment, Zhao Yuan only felt a sour look in his eyes.

"Father!" Ying Xue looked very weak, and although she tried her best, this call was still soft and weak. She stood up and stumbled about to fall as soon as she took a step, but Zhao Yuan hurriedly rushed over and hugged her tightly in his arms.

"Good boy, good boy!" Zhao Yuan hugged his daughter's small body, only to feel that she was frighteningly thin, and the bones on her shoulders protruded in a daze. It is conceivable that she must have never eaten anything in these ** days, and it is a miracle that she has been able to hold on until now.

After Zhao Yuan comforted Ying Xue, he hurried to see the woman who fell into a coma on the grass. He brushed away the woman's messy hair, and recognized at a glance that the dying woman was Concubine Min. She had a deep wound on her forehead. The wound must have been caused by a blow from a heavy object, and the wound was sunken all around.

Zhao Yuan put her face on his cheeks, and felt that although Concubine Min fell into a coma and had a low-grade fever, her breathing was steady, and her life would not be in danger in a short time. Zhao Yuan immediately took out the gold sore medicine he was carrying from his arms and sprinkled a lot of it on Concubine Min's wounds.

Then he called Li Xiang to his side: "Quick, take someone to escort Concubine Min and the princess out, and treat them immediately." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister can't go! The situation here is complicated, the situation is confusing, and the first task of the ministers is to protect the emperor, how to keep the emperor here at such a critical moment. Li Xiang lowered his head, his body did not move, and said stubbornly.

Why is this Li Xiang coming to himself everywhere today? Zhao Yuan was so angry that his slender eyes widened! As soon as he wanted to open his mouth to reprimand Li Xiang, he felt that Ying Xue suddenly hugged his leg from the side: "Father, don't stay here!" There's a youkai here, get out of here! ”

Ying Xue's words surprised everyone! Zhao Yuan hurriedly leaned down to help her up and said, "Good boy, don't worry, speak slowly!" ”

Seeing her father and queen, Ying Xue knew that she was saved, and her mental state was obviously much better. She fell into her father's arms and said, "When the son and the queen mother, the mother and the concubine lived in this place, everything seemed normal. Because of the tiring travel, after entering the small courtyard here, Erchen lived with his mother and soon fell asleep. ”

But in the second half of the night, I suddenly heard the screams of the guards faintly outside the window. The mother concubine and her sons immediately got dressed and went out to watch, only to hear the sound of swords colliding outside the courtyard. But for some reason, the guards always seemed to be at a disadvantage, and the slashing sound became quieter and quieter, and the door of the courtyard was slammed. Erchen was very frightened, so he took his mother's hand and hid in the small courtyard. Just as Erchen and his mother were hiding in the shadows of the small courtyard, they saw that the gate of the courtyard was smashed open by something heavy, and then they staggered into a monster wrapped in iron plates! ”

When Ying Xue said this, she trembled as if she had seen a ghost, and she was short of breath and couldn't speak.

Zhao Yuan took her into his arms distressedly, stroked her head and said, "If it's uncomfortable, don't say it, hurry up and leave this place with the guards." ”

But Ying Xue tightly pulled Zhao Yuan's sleeve and didn't let go: "Father, you must leave here with your sons, it's too dangerous here!" If you stay here, how can you leave alone? ”

Zhao Yuan patiently explained: "How can I stand idly by and watch such a big thing happen here? You and Concubine Min can both survive, the queen has not been found yet, maybe she is hiding in some remote corner at this time, waiting for me to rescue her......"

"Father," Ying Xue's voice suddenly became much lower: "Don't be in a hurry to look for it, Erchen knows that there are no other survivors here except Erchen and Mother Concubine." ”

Zhao Yuan held her hand and stiffened: "Why are you like this...... Sure? ”

After seeing the iron-clad monster rush into the courtyard, Erchen drove all the eunuchs and maids in the courtyard and the queen mother herself into the main house, bolted the door from the outside, and then ...... And then...... The monster set a fire, and the whole house was instantly ablaze...... None of the people inside could escape! ”

Ying Xue's words not only made Zhao Yuan's face change, but even Li Xiang's cold guards couldn't help frowning, this murderer's methods were too cruel, why did he attack a group of female dependents who had no resistance?

At this time, Zhao Yuan had already gritted his steel teeth and gurgled: "What is this monster in the end, why is it acting so viciously?" Ying Xue, in the past few days of hiding in this grass, have you ever seen him appear? ”

Ying Xue said with a look of horror: "A few days ago, Erchen saw this monster walking back and forth on the steps a few times, as if he was looking for someone alive. At that time, the retainers and the concubine were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out, so they could only crawl in the grass. The monster was not seen again for a few days, could it be that he had fled? ”

Zhao Yuan stood up and looked around: "He should still stay here." Judging from what you just said, this person should be the last living descendant of the Asse Tuo family wandering in the northern frontier. This people are cold and cruel by nature, and it is rumored that they often eat human flesh, so even if he is isolated in the Lonely Fort these days, he should not starve. ”

When Li Xiang heard this, his expression was very nervous. He subconsciously stood in front of Zhao Yuan, and the hand holding the knife was also held tighter: "No wonder the princess said that this person was wrapped in iron skin, and I think he was wearing the legendary plate gold armor in the Western Regions." Not only is the whole body well protected, but the guards on the left shoulder and left chest are also heavier and thicker, so it is very heavy to wear and swaying when walking. But those who wear this armor are invulnerable. This also explains why so many guards can be slaughtered by a single Aseto! ”

Zhao Yuan said to Li Xiang resolutely at this time: "No matter what, this person is still staying here, it is extremely dangerous here all the time, you immediately escort Concubine Min and the princess out." I'm still going to ...... here See where the Empress fell. Don't be stubborn, I have dealt with the Aseto, and I have more experience dealing with him than you do. You take half of the people to cross the bridge quickly. After crossing the bridge, you ......"

When he said the second half, Zhao Yuan called Li Xiang to his side and whispered a few words.
