For this strange atmosphere, everyone tacitly quickened their steps, and even did not stop too much when they had lunch at noon, almost always nibbling on the dry food in their hands while walking.

The sun was setting in the west, and the sky was getting a little darker, and the orange sunset was faint with a cold halo, which blurred the gray sky.

The two young generals who sat on the horses and walked in front always frowned, although they were soldiers, they had never practiced and camped in the wilderness, but the atmosphere here really made the back of the neck cold, and there was also a thin layer of cold sweat under the thick armor of the two.

I thought it would be easy to escort the princess to the outside of the gate, but how could I have expected that there would be such a desolate and strange place halfway, and when they saw the animal corpse first, of course they didn't think so, in the wild, these things are not common!

But no matter how common it is, there won't be such a large number. The two of them looked at each other, and they couldn't help but look at each other, and their eyes were all on the almost dense skeletons of various animals on both sides of the road.

This time, the more you look at it, the more shocking it becomes, and the hands of the two of them holding the reins are revealing the white bones.

"Commander Zhao, should we discuss with Princess Jiahe and change the route?" Said the general on black horseback.

Commander Zhao on the other horse did not speak, nodded, turned around and stopped the team, and then came to Miao Zhi's Luan chariot.

After listening to Commander Zhao's words, Miao Zhi couldn't help frowning, and turned her head to look at Shen Yuqian, who had been riding a horse and walking by the side of the Luan chariot.

The two discussed it for a while, decided to turn around and retreat, and then crossed the ridge and took another road.

Seeing that it was getting dark, time was running out for no one, and several people on horseback shuttled through the long procession, passing on the news of the diversion.

***

The moon is high and the stars are scarce, and the night is thick.

Yuan Hongxuan stood quietly by the window, looking into the northern sky. I wonder where Zhi'er and they went?

Whenever the night is quiet, the longing for her will drown him, as if when the concubine had just left him, his thoughts were so strong that it was suffocating.

Thinking of this, his heart was stunned, and his memory seemed to return to that season when osmanthus was full of flowers.

In that small courtyard, which was not very spacious, his gentle and kind mother took a shovel and helped him up when he accidentally fell.

On that dewy morning, shovel by shovel, and then the two of them planted the weak sapling, and then, the mother's smile was so warm in his memory.

"Your Highness, I believe you." Qin Guan, who was dressed in ordinary clothes, pushed the door in, and when he looked up, he saw Yuan Hongxuan, who was lonely by the window.

Hearing the voice behind him, he turned around, revealing a cold and heroic face. When he spread out the slender note and read the handwriting on it, his sword-like brow locked tightly together for the first time after arriving at Giyu Castle.

"Zhi'er, they have been away from Yintai City for three days, but the informant who is the first necessary way to Yintai City has not sent a message, are they in trouble?"

Qin Guan was also shocked when he heard this, he took the letter, read it carefully, and it was really a wire report from Yintai City, saying that three days ago in the morning, the two princesses parted ways for Yintai City.

"Impossible," Qin Guan still didn't believe it, walked to the cabinet with a baggage, took out a leather map from it, walked to the dim kerosene lamp and spread it out, pointed at the map with the rocky road, and then frowned.

"Your Highness, I've seen it, if the speed of the team is based on the previous march, then Miss Miaozhi and they should be near Peach Village tonight." He pointed to a small dot on the map, and then said: "Even if the speed is slow and it doesn't get to the vicinity of here, the informant we arranged there is afraid that it is time to find the team, it has been three days, and there is no news, it is estimated that as His Highness expected, they were stopped by something on the way." ”

It was the small dot marked as Momomura, but it made him look at it for a long time, and finally, he turned his gaze, closed his dark eyes, and took a deep breath.

"Messenger asked the people of Peach Village to look around and find out what was going on." Yuan Hongxuan turned around, and the familiar feeling in his body had already crept up his bare feet.

Qin Guan was slightly stunned, why don't His Highness go in person? And he didn't let Lin Feng go, this is? He obviously caught a subtle clue from Yuan Hongxuan at this time.

"Your Highness, are you alright?" His expression became solemn, and his voice was full of worry.

"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired."

Yuan Hongxuan turned his back to him, and after a moment of silence, he asked again: "What is the movement of those people in the Dongtou guest room today?" ”

"All seven of them are men, only the tall man in a light gray power suit has ever been out today, and the rest are nowhere to be seen."

"Oh? What did the man do? ”

"Lin Feng followed three streets, and he went to the 'Cuihong Mansion' in the city," he said with a pause in his voice. Your Highness should know what the 'Emerald Red Mansion' is for!

He cleared his throat and continued, rolling up the map on the table and putting it into his baggage as he spoke. "The man asked for two plates of dim sum and a pot of sake, and had fun with the girl in the building before returning."

Yuan Hongxuan was a little puzzled, only one person went out, and he still went to look for flowers and ask Liu? "And how many people are left?"

"The rest of the people didn't go out all day, and their meals were delivered to the room by the shopkeeper himself."

"Six big men, stay in the room all day and don't go out?" Whoever it is, it feels wrong, right?

"Are there any other discoveries then?" Yuan Hongxuan pursed his thin lips, and his fingers tightened unnaturally. Damn, that feeling came so quickly, it was almost up to my legs.

"No, that group of people is very vigilant, our people can't get close to those two rooms at all, today I pretended to be looking for something with Lin Feng and wanted to get closer, but I was stopped by a person in the house through the door panel."

And what else is there? His dark eyes narrowed dangerously, restrained from letting the discomfort of his body swallow up his reason.

"Then don't listen any further, lest you startle the snake."

He waved his hand and motioned for Qin Guan to go down.

At this time, Qin Guan was still not at ease, and hesitated in front of the door.

"Your Highness, Miss Miao Zhi, is there really no need for her subordinates to go? Just send the brothers from Peach Village to check it out? ”

"No need, there are also troops accompanying the family to send relatives, so there should be no problem."

Yuan Hongxuan said, but he was a little bottomless in his heart, but no matter how worried he was, his group of people couldn't act rashly at this time, if someone with a heart could see the clues, then the careful deployment for so long would fall short, and I was afraid that Zhi'er would really have to marry Yuan Hongyi at TECO.

Not to mention, his current body.

Wave after wave of unbearable feelings hit, if it weren't for him on his back, I'm afraid Qin Guan would have discovered that something was wrong with him! (To be continued.) )
