Chapter 288: Laying the Net
The Emperor looked at the billowing smoke rising into the sky, his eyes were also full of dark clouds, and his pursed lips were stretched into a sharp straight line, like a steel knife that could fall at any moment.
Leng Yiwei did his best to direct the firefighting, and he rushed to the emperor's side as soon as the fire broke out.
This move made the emperor who wanted to blame him unable to speak again, and no matter how angry and shocked the emperor was, he also understood that it was autumn at this time, the weather was dry, and it was inevitable that there would be fires in the mountains and forests.
But...... After all, this matter will damage the royal face, not to mention, this paddock hunt, as well as the missions of other countries, the loss of face is enough to be intolerable, in case, what if there are casualties from other countries?
The emperor had a headache just thinking about it.
"Have the missions returned?" The Emperor looked at the leader of the Forbidden Army.
"Back to the emperor, not yet," the leader of the forbidden army was furious by the emperor's heart, but he had to report it truthfully, "My Royal Highness King Ning of Dazhao has not come back yet, in addition, the minister just checked the number of people, as well as General Feng of Chenyang and Prince Yue of King Ling, as well as His Royal Highness the Seventh of Mingxiao." ”
The emperor couldn't help but take a breath, all of these people are at stake, and none of them can be a little different, otherwise, it will cause an uproar, and it may even lead to a conflict between the two countries, and his third son, Leng Yixiu, is also among them, if the war starts, then ......
He became more and more irritable in his heart, and the noise around him made him have a headache, and he waved his hand, "Send more people!" Make sure you get them all back, and no one will miss anything! ”
The leader of the forbidden army lowered his head and said yes, but there was a bitter taste in his heart, how could he not know that none of these people could make a mistake? Which is not a status precious? However, this fire and water are merciless, no matter what your status is, you will be reduced to ashes in the face of the fire.
It's just that he didn't dare to say this, so he could only hurriedly take the order and take people to the fire in person, but he was ready to be punished.
Leng Yiwei listened clearly on the side, his face was a complex look mixed with exhaustion, guilt, worry, etc., but there was a faint smile and joy in his heart.
Leng Yixiu hasn't come back yet, whether he is alive or dead, this time, he will be ruthlessly changed from the pride of the sky to a hellish star, so that he will never be able to turn over!
He slowly walked in front of the emperor, knelt down deeply, his drooping hair covered the cold light that flashed in his eyes, and said in a sincere and sad tone: "Father! The son is guilty! This hunt is the son of the minister and is responsible for the whole process, not expected...... There will be such a major event, and it is difficult for the sons and daughters to die and excuse their crimes, please ...... Father's punishment! ”
With that, he touched his head to the ground and slammed it to the ground again and again.
The emperor's eyes locked on him, looking at the dust on his body, a lot of soot fell on his hair, and the voice of Lang Lang in the past became hoarse, but in the end he still couldn't push everything on him, he was silent for a long time, and said lightly: "Get up." You can't be blamed for this. ”
"No!" Leng Yiwei raised his head slowly, his eyes were surging with deep guilt, "Father! Please ask Enzhun Erchen to personally lead people to search and rescue, to find the Three Emperor Brothers and the envoys of other countries, if they are not found, the Erchen vows not to return. ”
His voice is sonorous and powerful, his eyes are firm, and his posture of kneeling on the ground is upright and awe-inspiring, like a bamboo standing proudly, elegant but without losing his style.
The emperor sighed, waved his hand and said, "No need, you still stay here and command the rescue, I don't want anyone to have an accident." ”
Leng Yiwei lowered his eyes, the joy in his eyes flashed, but his tone became more and more painful: "Erchen...... Thank you! It was the incompetence of the sons and daughters that disappointed the father. ”
The various sounds around him were mixed together, the voices of the people were noisy, the horses were jubilant, the drums were rolling like thunder, and the waves hit the emperor's eardrums wave by wave, he closed his eyes slightly, sighed, waved his hand weakly, and did not say a word more.
Leng Yiwei stood up, silently retreated a few steps, and when he was about to leave, he seemed to remember something, walked to the emperor's side again and said: "Father, the son remembers that there is a stream in the southeast of the paddock, looking at the wind direction and fire, it may not have spread there, and the third emperor brother has also been to the paddock many times, so he must know there." ”
"Oh?" The emperor's eyes lit up, and he instantly turned his head to look at him, "Really? ”
"That's right," Leng Yiwei nodded, "The envoys of the countries have not returned, maybe it was the Third Emperor Brother who led them over there to avoid the fire." ”
"I remember," the emperor's face finally had a look of hope, "there is indeed such a stream, Xiu'er should also know, maybe as you said, quickly!" Send someone to find out! ”
Leng Yiwei hurriedly said: "Father, if you want to go to that stream, you have to pass through the fire, it's too dangerous, Erchen remembers that once he walked by accidentally, from the vicinity of Erchen's hospitalized son, there is just a path that can go straight there, Father will wait a while, Erchen will immediately go to check it in person!" ”
With that, he hurriedly turned around to look, "Wait! The emperor's voice came from behind, and Leng Yiwei gently tugged at the corners of his mouth, revealing a vague smile.
"I'm with you!"
Leng Yiwei smiled secretly in his heart, just waiting for the emperor's words, many things are not as impactful as those seen with his own eyes, the more real he sees, the more thorough Leng Yi's cultivation will be.
"The son leads the way for his father." Leng Yiwei said, turned around and walked forward, and glanced at several ministers of his own party out of the corner of his eye.
Those people immediately stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are also willing to share the emperor's worries, and they are willing to go with the emperor." ”
The emperor didn't think much about it, just nodded, and the ministers behind him followed him towards the grove near Leng Yiwei's courtyard.
Feng Yinan was the only one left alone among the people, and when the fire was together, he quickly shook off everyone, without bringing anyone with him, and threw away all his guards, and even the shouts of Tietong were left behind him.
He didn't dare to have a trace of neglect, a little bit of difference, because he knew that today's events were far more important than what won the victory in the big competition, and compared with today's events, the big competition was a fart.
He gritted his teeth with hatred for Leng Yixiu and Rong Xi in his heart, but the fear of them in his heart was more profound than hatred, he couldn't and didn't dare to refuse Leng Yixiu and Rong Xi's arrangement, except for cooperation, there was no other way to go, he held the reins of the horse tightly in his hand, bumpy all the way, and the horse under him was as fast as an arrow off the string.
The sound of the wind whistled in his ears, and the black hair fluttered behind his head, but Feng Yinan's heart beat wildly, and he became more and more uneasy as the agreed place got closer and closer.
Yes, nervous. This is a kind of love that he doesn't want to admit, but it keeps popping up from the bottom of his heart.
A man and a horse appeared in front of him, the man stood in the sun, the golden armor on his body glowed with dazzling light, the same color as the sun, but as cold as ice, he sat on the horse, his posture was immovable, like the persecution of mountains and rivers, and the pressure of the layers penetrated the air from afar.
The flying eyebrows are like the wings of a goshawk, the eyes are dark and cold, and the brilliance is as fierce as a sword out of the sheath, just looking at it from such a distance makes Feng Yinan's heart tighten.
King Zhaoning, Leng Yixiu.
Feng Yinan took a deep breath and suppressed the tension in his heart to the minimum, but the speed of the horse involuntarily increased, and he didn't dare to delay for a moment, and flew to Leng Yixiu's approach, he smiled reluctantly, and arched his hand: "Lord Wang." ”
"Young General," Leng Yixiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, "You don't look like you're going to an appointment with a beauty." ”
A trace of embarrassment flashed on Feng Yinan's face, and he raised his hand and pulled the placket and said, "Time is pressing, and it's a matter of importance, so naturally ......"
"The more important the matter, the more cautious you must be," Leng Yixiu interrupted him, the smile on his lips was still faint, but the tone made people's backs chill when they listened, "The slightest mistake may be overcome, young general, do you understand what this king means?" ”
His last tone rose slightly, like the tip of a knife that was violently provoked in the wind, making Feng Yinan's palms sticky with a layer of sweat, he naturally understood what Leng Yixiu's words meant, and it would not be overcome...... He shuddered when he thought about it, and squeezed out a smile on his pale face and said, "I understand, don't worry, the prince." ”
"In that case, please ask the major general to come over." Leng Yixiu said "past", but he didn't move, he stepped off the black war horse and stood with his head held high, proud like its owner.
Feng Yinan's face didn't dare to show a trace of dissatisfaction, so he could only lift the reins of the horse, bypass Leng Yixiu, and quickly go straight to the destination.
Leng Yixiu looked at the smoke that was still rolling in the distance, like a black mist covering the sunny sky, blocking the truth of many things, some things have some secrets, behind this fog, in that sea of fire, has burned into ashes, and there will never be a chance to be exposed to the sun again.
The sound of the horse's hooves behind Feng Yinan gradually faded away, Leng Yixiu slowly retracted his gaze, gently turned the horse's head, looked at the direction of Feng Yinan's running, raising dust like smoke, Feng Yinan's back had turned into a small black spot, but that black spot was like a black thorn, so that although Leng Yixiu wanted to pull it out quickly, he had to keep him for the time being.
He lightly clapped his high-five, and Leng San flashed out from behind the tree, "Go, pay attention to the situation over there, and make sure that the first qiē goes according to plan, and the time must be just right, and there must be no mistakes." ”
"Yes." Leng San took the order and left, and soon disappeared.
Leng Yixiu was still sitting upright on the horse, his posture was straight, like a stone carving, and the sun shone on his body, with a faint sadness.
