Chapter 926: Expediency
Jiang Ming patted Ah Feng's head and asked him to withdraw his breakfast: Ah Feng won't have the heart to eat more, and the eldest princess can eat whatever she wants to eat at any time, and it's not too late to say it when she's hungry.
At this time, insisting on Ah Feng to eat breakfast will hurt Ah Feng's body.
Entering the palace now may not necessarily help much, but people are like this, as long as they are concerned about a person, where they know that it has no effect, they have to rush to that person's side.
It's like if something happens, even if they turn into ashes together, it's much better than sitting and waiting for news and having your eyes blackened. Therefore, Ah Feng and Jiang Ming hurriedly went out and got on their horses and rushed to the palace.
Because she was too worried about the queen, for fear that she would be disheartened and at the mercy of the emperor and the queen mother, Ah Feng asked Xiao Youfu to rush to the palace to deliver the letter first, just to let the queen know that she was coming soon: for her, the queen could not be at the mercy of others.
Xiao Youfu glanced at Jiang Ming, thinking that Ah Feng still had a secret guard by his side, so he left with confidence to spread the word.
Jiang Ming knew that Ah Feng was anxious, but when there were many people on the street, even if he ran faster with his equestrian skills, it would not be possible to hurt people, but it would definitely scare people, so he could only slow down.
The main reason is that the queen is not worried about her life, and the matter of establishing the crown prince is not the queen mother and the emperor nod, and the holy decree will be delivered to the world immediately: there are too many people and interests involved, and it is impossible to decide on the candidate without a fight.
Therefore, Ah Feng did not rush regardless of passers-by, but just asked Xiao Youfu to send her words to the queen mother to know, so that she could not bear it too much.
Whoever is the prince, Ah Feng has no opinion, anyway, she has no idea about the world of Da Chu; But someone took advantage of this matter to attack the queen, and she couldn't sit idly by.
"Jiang Guogong, Jiang Guogong, 100,000 urgent military information, 100,000 urgent military situation, please go to the military department immediately to discuss the matter." A herald quickly chased after him, knocking over two small stalls in succession - if it wasn't for Jiang Ming's action, I was afraid that he would hurt people.
Jiang Ming's face changed slightly: "What military situation?!" "Da Chu's border is stable now, and I haven't heard of any movement on the border at all, where did the military intelligence come from all of a sudden?!
The herald shook his head, out of breath, but he still had to finish his words: "The military department asks the Guogong to go to the discussion as soon as possible - the western border of Great Chu has been lost, and the enemy army has captured four cities of our Great Chu one after another, and thousands of miles of fertile land are all in the hands of the enemy. ”
He said the latter sentence in a low voice, in order not to let the people hear it and cause any more panic.
Jiang Ming's face turned blue when he heard this: "What?!" Are they drinking gruel every day?! The military situation is so urgent, I am afraid that it will also be reported to the palace, and now the queen's affairs are really going to be pressed back, he looked at Ah Feng with an apology in his eyes.
Ah Feng is his life, and he can give up his life for Ah Feng; But at the same time, he is also the general of Dachu, and the people are supporting him when he eats and drinks, and when the country and the people need him, he must not hesitate or say "no".
"Go ahead. Don't worry, I'm sure you and the generals will have a way. Ah Feng ignored being on the street, leaned out on the horse and hugged Jiang Ming: "My mother and I can deal with it, you can rest assured that we are here." ”
Jiang Ming had too much to say, but he really didn't have time for the urgency of the military situation, so he could only pat Ah Feng on the shoulder, turn around and pick up the herald, and take him to turn his horse's head and go straight to the military headquarters.
Ah Feng watched Jiang Ming's figure disappear before turning to Peony and said, "Let's go." ”
Peony looked at Ah Feng, bit her lip a few times, and looked at the direction in which Jiang Ming and the herald disappeared without moving for a while, until Ah Feng called her again, she hit the horse and followed.
The herald, she seems to have seen it, should she tell the princess? But what if she was wrong? Peony was entangled for a while and didn't know what to do.
There are finally fewer people on the streets. Because now two streets are the heavenly street in front of the palace, so there are not too many idle people here, and Ah Feng and the others can finally hurry up.
But as soon as the horse let go of its hooves, Ah Feng heard one after another, dense wind howls like raindrops; She didn't need to look up to see a rain of arrows, all in all directions, coming straight for her and Peony's group.
Ah Feng hurriedly reined in the horse, and Peony was already yelling to protect the princess - Ah Feng was not panicked, it was indeed unexpected that there was an assassination, but she knew that she still had the protection of the secret guard by her side.
Those who were hidden in the shadows appeared like shadows, protecting the outside of Ah Feng and his party; The rain of arrows was dropped by them, but there were too many arrows, and there were still people injured: there were secret guards, palace people or eunuchs.
Ah Feng looked at the rain of arrows in the sky, and then looked at the dark guards who used their bodies as shields, and countless thoughts turned in their minds, but none of them could be used: she couldn't get away if she couldn't wear the arrow rain, and the assassin wouldn't let go, and the secret guards and Peony and others would die here.
She knew that the Assassins had come for her.
"Stop!" She shouted and reprimanded: "If you want my corpse, then it is enough to send me a sword, why bother hurting the innocent." ”
Ah Feng knew that with her and the secret guards, it would be impossible to escape; After the dark guard died, she was either captured or killed. No matter what the result is, the person the other party wants is just her, in fact, Peony and the secret guard really don't have to die here with her.
"Sure enough, it's the eldest princess, and it's really a love for the people like a son." The assassin actually replied, but he used a person who loved the people like a son, and Ah Feng was a little awkward to listen.
"The eldest princess doesn't want all the people around you to die here, and we can't stay for long - the eldest princess doesn't have to be afraid, we are not here to kill the eldest princess, but just invite the eldest princess to be a guest."
"When the war between you and me subsides, I will send the eldest princess back then." The assassin paused after speaking: "Those secret guards are all dead soldiers, didn't the eldest princess try to trick us into showing up, and they would use their strengths to attack us, right?" ”
Ah Feng sighed slightly, she didn't expect that the only chance to turn the tables was also broken by the other party, she could only sternly order the secret guards to retreat, and threaten each other with death, not allowing them to do it again, let alone allowing them to act rashly to save themselves.
She gave Peony a look and signaled her to take someone to the palace to report the news, don't alarm Jiang Ming now: because Jiang Ming is busy with serious business now.
It's not good to kill her. Ah Feng believes that as long as she lives, she will definitely be rescued, because Da Chu will never let the eldest princess fall into the hands of other countries.
If these assassins really have a way to take her out of the realm of Great Chu, the day she will commit suicide when she leaves Great Chu: the eldest princess of Great Chu will never let other countries use her as a bargaining chip.
However, she believed that she didn't have to go that far, and she would definitely be rescued before leaving Da Chu. Jiang Ming will not give up, Lu Rourou, Fu Xiaotian and others will not give up, and they will not let her worry about her life.
