When Xia Qingyan came out, her face was full of decay, and she looked at the person who stood in her way weakly, "Something?" ”

Why can't we give her some time to be quiet and digest this painful fact?

"What are you doing in a daze, you're about to set off, and you don't want to rectify with the team?"

The man didn't know when he came over, and dragged Xia Qingyan to the outside of the post station. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Wait! I...... I still have something. Then she came to her senses, what a joke, she was going to run!

"What?" The man got impatient.

“…… People have three urgencies, what are you urging? ”

"Then hurry up, be careful to punish you if you're late."

"Know, know ......"

"Hey, where are you going?"

Xia Qingyan's eyes were dull and her expression was hesitant, "You won't let me solve it here, right?" ”

said it casually, but it didn't come to fruition, but it was said.

"What is the manly husband twisting, and I won't die watching you pee...... "Why is this skinny boy so troublesome?"

A little sadness and indignation overflowed her eyes, and she gritted her teeth, "Big brother, what is your surname?" ”

"Hehe...... " The man replied proudly, patting his chest, "My father married, but I ask for food and clothing, and food and clothing are me, hahahaha." ”

She pointed to his nose and nodded hatefully, "Good, I remember you." ”

If I don't run, I won't be able to!

Wait, she doesn't believe she can't seize the opportunity!

The tiger body froze in place, looking at the back indignantly, and walked straight to Xia Qingyan, who walked straight outside the post station, beckoned, "Hey, you don't pee?" ”

Xia Qingyan turned her head viciously, her small eyes burst out with several knives, and she looked at Wen Yu with satisfaction, and left with a hum.

Damn, she cursed him for not having anything to eat tonight!

……

The team of Xiao Guo's envoys left Kyoto and went on the flat official road, and the speed was obviously much faster.

In the carriage, Wei Hong bent his knees and lowered his face, Xiao Yichen in front of him was silent, even if he couldn't see it, he could feel the two sharp blade-like eyes shooting towards him, which made him more and more embarrassed. When Tong Shan's death was discovered in the early morning, and no trace of others could be found at the scene, the imperial doctor's accusations undoubtedly made him speechless.

Xiao Yichen leaned on the soft pillow with his back, he squinted his eyes of different colors, stared at Wei Hong with a slight coldness, picked up the wine glass on the small table in front of him with two fingers, and poured it into his throat with his head slightly raised, the spicy and spicy face of the wine remained unchanged. After a while, he pursed his lips and said coldly, "This hall only asks you once, whether you did it." ”

Wei Hong's face was bitter, he raised his face slightly to look at Xiao Yichen, only to feel that he couldn't breathe in his heart, "It's not a minister." Although he moved this thought, he still cared about his Royal Highness, and he knew what Tong Shan's death meant, even if he wanted to kill, he would not choose this time when he was completely unprepared.

A look of surprise flashed in Xiao Yichen's eyes, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "You go down." ”

"Your Highness?" Is this to forgive him, or to believe in him?

"You're derelict in your duty, go down and get the thirty boards yourself." Xiao Yichen lightly brushed aside his face, sank his body into the thick soft pillow, and squinted his eyes as if he was tired and rested.

"Your Highness, time is running out." Wei Hong's worries were palpable.

It doesn't matter whether Tong Shan was killed by him or not, the important thing is that apart from him, which black hand behind the scenes wants to promote all this, and a series of countermeasures they have to prepare after Tong Shan's death, His Royal Highness has no orders now, is it possible to sit back and wait to be killed?

Xiao Yichen looked down at Wei Hong indifferently, with no other emotions on his face, "Then what do you want?" ”

"Your Highness, you should ......" Wei Hong was surprised, he was a servant, how could he ask the master? Then he softened his tone and changed to persuade, "Today's plan, the sooner Your Highness prepares, the safer it will be, and I'm afraid that the next thing to deal with will ......."

"Do you think Big Brother is going to kill me?" Xiao Yichen's eyes opened a slit, "Why do you always hold on to your eldest brother, if your eldest brother has a motive, then my younger brothers and sisters are even worse?" "You must know that killing him is undoubtedly breaking the eldest brother's right arm.

Wei Hong smiled bitterly, "No matter who it is for, it will not be wrong for His Highness to prepare early." He thought of something, and added, "And Emperor Xia, it can't be ruled out that he has the intention to muddy this pool of water......"

Xiao Yichen didn't want to continue this topic, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go down and prepare." ”

"Yes, I'll go." Wei Hong breathed a sigh of relief, and the Second Highness finally relented, and he kowtowed again before saying, "The minister has thanked His Highness for believing in the minister's innocence, and the minister will live up to His Highness's trust, no matter who it is, the minister will not let others have a chance to take advantage of it." ”

Xiao Yichen lightly closed his eyes with blue sea and blue sky, and stopped making a sound.

Wei Hong quietly looked at Xiao Yichen's deep facial features, their second highness, inherited his grandfather's heroic appearance, Xuan Angzhong is quite hearty and uninhibited, acting brightly, temperament is also open-minded, and when he is independent in the crowd, he is as bright as the son of the sun, and he should be the ruler on the golden throne, but it is a pity that he meets the prince......

A sigh rose spontaneously, but Xiao Yichen suddenly heard a sharp voice, "Not yet?" ”

Wei Hong's eyelids jumped suddenly, "The minister retreats." "Intuitively, today's Second Highness had an unusual aura on his body, so he didn't dare to delay any longer, and knelt down and withdrew from the carriage.

As soon as he came out, he went straight to receive thirty military sticks, and his face was pale, but he went about arranging all matters as if nothing had happened......

in the carriage.

Not long after Wei Hong retreated, a figure swept in like a gust of wind, and his aura was so calm that it was difficult to detect, "Your Highness." ”

Xiao Yichen still didn't open his eyes, most of his handsome face was embedded in the soft pillow, and he could only see the corners of his lips twitching slightly, "What can you find out?" ”

Come to the human, "Lord Wei didn't enter the imperial medicine room last night. The implication is that Tong Shan's death was done by someone else.

"Well, watch him secretly and report back at any time." Although Wei Hong has not done anything at this moment, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not do anything in the future......

The person who came did not immediately retreat, "Your Highness, my subordinates have found that there is an anomaly hidden in the army. ”

"If they don't let people in, it will be strange in this hall." Xiao Yichen chuckled lightly, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was cold and ruthless, "Maybe those younger brothers and sisters in this hall are tired of eating, drinking, and having fun, and want to mix in to relieve their boredom, you can watch and deal with it." ”

The person who came said, "Those people's subordinates have already been watched, but the one I found this time is not quite like it." "To be exact, I don't see the slightest danger when you look at it.

"Oh?" Xiao Yichen raised his eyebrows in surprise, slowly opened his eyes, and the strange light flashed, "Do you know who it is?" ”

"The subordinates are observing." The dark guard frowned, annoyed on his face.

"Well, let's go down."

"The subordinates retired."

The people who came swept away like the wind again.

The hot wind gently lifted a corner of the curtain, leaped into a dazzling beam of sunlight, and hit his long straight legs, and it didn't take long for the skin under the inky black brocade robe to feel some warmth.

Xiao Yichen glanced at the four pieces of ice placed in the corner of the carriage, and the slightest cold air overflowed, and the temperature in this small space was extremely pleasant. He lightly lifted the curtain with his fingertips, squinted his eyes and looked at the white road outside the carriage, and the scorching sun above his head but still imposing, the majestic army, and most of all to the palace people who followed the carriage and waited with him, and commanded loudly, "Speed up, get to the post station early, and rest early." ”

"Hey, the minion is going to command." The palace man wiped his sweat and responded with a smile.

There is little difference between the summer climate of Xiao and Xia, but the difference is that the daily temperature of Xiao is very different.

All day long I was exposed to high temperatures, and even at night I didn't see much of the Xia Kingdom, so there were a few cases where the water and soil were not adapted, and the army was fine, but most of the people who accompanied the palace couldn't bear it.

He gently moved his body, which had not moved for half a day, and the dark pain from his whole body couldn't help but make his eyebrows slightly darkened.

suppressed a heavy sigh in his chest, and couldn't help but laugh at himself for being too soft-hearted, as the second heir of the future ruler, his eldest brother is undoubtedly more courageous than him, at least, how can he not betray his eldest brother, nor will he leap over his eldest brother and covet the position he may also sit in Wei Hong's heart......

Otherwise, he wouldn't have told Wei Hong until now that he had a special subordinate in his hand that was comparable to the royal secret guard, and if Wei Hong learned about this, he was afraid that he would have to persuade him to take a desperate gamble. It's just that Wei Hong and the eldest brother won't know that these so-called special subordinates were actually given to him by his mother when she died, he still remembers that when she died, she took his hand and asked him to swear to assist the eldest brother well, at that time he didn't understand the eldest brother who had the personal secret guard granted by his father and the emperor, why did he need his help, many years later, he was grateful for the foresight of his mother, he could secretly help the eldest brother shelter from the wind and rain, and also let himself escape several persecutions......

If one day, the mother concubine gave him these things, and in the future, he will turn the spear against his eldest brother, how can he be embarrassed, and how can the mother concubine under Jiuquan be blind?

……

At this moment, Xia Qingyan was as lifeless as a sun-dried plant, swaying left and right to see food and clothing for a while, holding her with one hand, and becoming more and more shameless at the contempt of the soldiers around her, as if she was laughing at herself.

"Hey, hey, you've only walked a few steps, why are you so useless?" In the blame, it was difficult to hide his worry, except that the face was very different, the more he looked at Wen and Clothing, the more he felt that Xia Qingyan was like the 'brother' he knew when he left the palace of Xia Kingdom before.

“…… Water...... Water......" Xia Qingyan rolled her eyes and hoarsely voiced.

Everyone was getting darker and darker under the scorching sun, but she was fine, and her little face was getting more and more pale as paper.

Xia Qingyan wanted to cry without tears, what kind of sin did she do, in order to escape from Xia Yunyi, she, an ancient golden branch and jade leaf, marched like a gentleman, her back hurt, her stomach was empty, and the soles of her feet still hurt for a while.

She hasn't experienced this kind of suffering for many years, and she can't remember it anymore.

However, the military regulations are strict, if she falls behind or delays others, I am afraid that she will be punished according to military discipline, and she will walk like this until noon, is it easy for her?

“…… Okay, you wait, I'll go to the team leader and get it. After waiting for Xia Qingyan to stand firm, she left the team without worry.

Although this is intended to be an envoy, the army is indeed a regular army, and since military discipline is strict, everyone will not be equipped with a water bag to drink water at any time. Each team has a responsible team leader, who reports to the team leader and then reports to his superiors depending on the seriousness of the emergency.

After feeding Xia Qingyan with food and clothing, Xia Qingyan was a little more energetic, but she was still weak to speak, "I'm sorry, big brother...... "She is also anxious, if it goes on like this, it is only a matter of time before she is discovered, if she is treated as a spy, how wronged she is.

"You can't go on like this, if the staff knows about it, you will be beheaded directly according to military discipline." After watching it for so long, Wen Fang knew that Xia Qingyan was not sick, but her physical strength was not worthy of her identity as a soldier at all, and even he was a little suspicious of how Xia Qingyan was selected to be an envoy? If he hadn't seen her name on the wooden card, he would have thought that she was not from his Xiao Guozhong, after all, such a thin soldier was rare in the army.

"Ah, what then?" Xia Qingyan was about to cry, squinting her little eyes and blinking the tears that were about to come up.

felt that after escaping from the palace, she was much less courageous, and she was so frightened that she wanted to cry.

Moreover, she ...... She misses Xia Yunyi a little, what should she do?

Thinking of this, Xia Qingyan smiled bitterly, her body was already delicate, and she had a very good life in this world, but now she couldn't bear it just after a little hardship.

"I don't know, do you? You are also like my brother, heat stroke? "Food and clothing suddenly came up with an idea.

"But the problem is that I can't pass out now." Xia Qingyan pulled the corners of her lips weakly, but her smile was more ugly than crying.

Wen and Shu wanted to say something, but he heard a loud voice, "You, take a few people with me to check on the back." ”

The squad leader rushed forward, bowed his head and said, "Yes, dare to ask how many people are needed for Counselor Wei?" ”

"A dozen or so people are enough, so let's do that."

And unfortunately, Xia Qingyan was at the end of the envoy team.

"You guys, come with me." After that, the squad leader led Xia Qingyan, Wen Fang and others to run behind Wei Hong, who was driving the horse.

Xia Qingyan's eyes darkened.

"Brother, hurry up!" Wen Rou pulled Xia Qingyan and ran.

Xia Qingyan, "......"

What else? Spread your feet and run forward? See if she dies of exhaustion first, or is she killed first?

……

What caused Wei Hong to rush to check on was that he reported that a caravan had been following behind the envoy's team for half a month, and at this juncture when Tong Shan had just died and everything was about to be chaotic and complicated, he could not allow an unperceived potential danger to threaten His Second Highness.

"Who's with it?" Wei Hong hurriedly stepped forward to interrogate.

There were about twenty people in the small caravan in front of him, and as soon as Wei Hong led the soldiers to come, everyone was slightly panicked.

"Your Excellency." A delicate and delicate woman came with a flower umbrella and stepped on broken steps, pursed her lips and smiled, "We are people from Kyoto in Xiao Kingdom, and it is the caravan that came here to trade on the birthday of Emperor Xia. ”

Wei Hong frowned, "I heard what the girl said, it doesn't seem to be the first time to go out, since that's the case, why do you need the protection of my envoy team, you know, His Royal Highness the Second Prince is the one we protect, don't overstep the rules." ”

The woman shook her head, "No, no, no, what the adults said is wrong, how dare we and other small merchants dare to hope that the army of the second prince will protect us?" His Royal Highness is the son of the sun respected by the subjects of my Xiao country, and his identity is different, and we only hope that the army will be mighty and can retreat from the mountain bandits among the lofty mountains, and we will be grateful, and I hope that the Lord must allow us to follow behind. ”

"Which merchant are you in Kyoto?" Wei Hong asked coldly.

"Kyoto Rongfu, my son-in-law is now resting in the carriage, just because he encountered robbers on the way to summer, and his son was too frightened and cold, so he is sick to this day, and I hope my son understands, my son-in-law can't stand the wind and can't get out of the carriage, I'll wait for this to take the customs clearance document spy to the adult to check, the adult waits." With that, the woman turned around and walked towards the luxurious carriage, bowed down and said a few words, and then took the spy handed from it.

Wei Hong took a closer look and didn't find any suspicions, but said, "Wait here, I need to report this matter to His Second Highness." "Ordinary merchants, seeing the court procession, at most say hello and stay away, but the second highness of his family is different, most of the subjects love to contact with it, to exaggerate a little, it is not an exaggeration to think that it is a faith......

So he didn't drive out this group of people directly, the respect of the subjects is an indispensable prestige of an emperor, although the second highness does not have this heart, but he can't be indifferent, so it was after Tong Shan's death......

He turned to leave, but the dozen or so infantry who followed him made a fuss:

"What's going on, I'm really dizzy......"

"Boy, wake up, or I'll throw you here, haha......"

"Tsk, this kid is really useless......"

“……”

Except for the first sound from food and clothing, the rest of the laughter and sarcasm came from the accompanying soldiers.

Xia Qingyan finally didn't withstand the sun exposure, and fainted gloriously again......

Wei Hong's eyebrows furrowed fiercely, and he waved his hand and said, "Carry it back and hand it over to the imperial doctor to see." ”

The one who wanted to carry the person, the woman trotted a few steps with an umbrella, and suggested with concern, "The adult might as well leave this little brother behind, I am familiar with medical skills, this little brother is suspected of heat stroke, or don't move at will, otherwise my life is not guaranteed, I will wait here, and help the adult to see the treatment for the time being, and when the adult brings back the news, I will wait and return the person to the adult, I don't know if the adult thinks this is feasible?" ”

The woman's bright eyes looked at Wei Hong fixedly, Wei Hong looked at the delicate girl with a baby face in front of him, a little hesitant, Xiao Guozhong is mostly with deep facial features, but the woman in front of him is more like Xia Guozhong, he is a little uneasy.

"Don't delay, my lord, this little brother will be worried about his life." The woman reminded sincerely, and a trace of unbearability flashed in her eyes.

"Okay, trouble girl, I'll send someone to get it back later." After that, Wei Hong didn't stay any longer, and led the soldiers to leave with him.

Wen Yu reluctantly glanced at Xia Qingyan a few more times, until a strange chill appeared behind him, and then he left suspiciously.

The woman waited for Wei Hong and the others to walk away, and only then did she bend down to pick up the person when she couldn't see it--

"Let me come." A cold male voice sounded, like a clear stream injected into the ears of Xia Qingyan, who was unconscious but retained a little hearing, and the small hand placed on the man's chest, the index finger moved slightly......
