"It doesn't seem that the county lord is surprised to see the old man." Takasaki was in front, leading my horse on foot.

I smiled sneeringly right away. "On the first day of the Nancheng army fighting Beishao, I guessed who the commander of your army was, and I was the only one left in this world."

The enemy is so obvious that if I can't guess it, I'd be really stupid. It's just that the problems that I couldn't understand at the time were all solved when I met him.

They didn't tell Yuan Ying about my cunzài, I was afraid that they hoped that Yuan Ying could defeat Nancheng in one fell swoop without remembering the old feelings, but from time to time they changed their defensive battlefield style of play by retreating, so that I could not guess and think about whether the commander of Beishao was him, this move was to shake my confidence, and I made two different plans in the battle arrangement in the morning, one for Yuan Qi and the other for Yuan Ying. The army is imminent, and there is no room for a difference.

What Yuan Ying underestimated was the weight I had saved in his life, and in the process of his forgetting, no one told him how well I knew him. It was impossible for those people to sue him, but it became something that made him start to doubt, and he repeatedly retreated because he wanted me to doubt and retreat, but I didn't expect that I dared to approach step by step, and I saw through several of his traps, which made him curious about me.

I just guessed the result, but I didn't grasp the process.

I guessed that he was still in Beishao, but I also underestimated the thoughts I suppressed in my heart, and I lost my temper after all.

The horse went out of the city gate, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the second brother waiting in the distance. Takasaki stopped with his horse, raised his head and asked me, "Since the county lord wants me to accompany you on this journey, there must be something you want to ask, and if you don't ask, you will miss it." ”

The sun is just right on this day, but it makes people feel a little chill in their hearts, trapped in the cold and gloomy for too long, it has made people forget how warmth has been experienced, I miss my sixteen-year-old self, obsessed with one thing, the courage to do whatever the consequences and costs.

"My son, are you alright?"

I miss him.

I miss him more than Yuan Ying, I hate him more than Yuan Ying, and the pain when I recall it over and over again in my heart-wrenching thoughts and memories has become a kind of torture day and night. Because of him, I actually lost Yuan Ying, I hated him, but I was reluctant to let go of him, eager to know every news of him, and refused to accept his recognition.

Takasaki just moved his mouth, and I wasn't sure I could hear what he said.

Looking at Takasaki's back as he returned to the city. I turned around, "I'm sorry, second brother." ”

The second brother lowered his head and sighed, pulled the reins, and left me first.

We rode our horses and galloped all the way.

The second brother is in front, and I am behind. After a while, he slowed down and waited for me, "Xiao Jiu, what are your plans?" ”

"I think I'm old." I vaguely look forward to staying with the person I love, and I have children by my side. "And everything I did was to go back, but when I suddenly woke up from a dream, I realized that I was outrageously wrong, and the more I wanted to go back, the farther away I was from the past."

"People know what they need when they are desperate, but only when they are awake do they understand what they want." The second brother's voice is the same, what has not changed after the world, only that heart, he saw me laughing, but he was confused, "What are you laughing at?" ”

I said, "I thought you didn't want me anymore." ”

"If you do something wrong, you are destined to make up for it, and the second brother is also a mortal, and there are times when he is trapped in love. I feel ashamed of you, I believe you don't really blame the second brother. ”

I reined in hard, "Then it depends on whether you can still win me today." ”

After riding his horse for nearly an hour, he saw the camp of our army. I couldn't help but slow down, when the horses of the two of us stopped in front of the camp, the eldest brother was already waiting at the gate of the camp, with a solemn face, seeing the two of us turn over and dismount, first glanced at me helplessly, and then looked at the second brother, and did not speak for a long time, but finally stretched out his hand and patted the second brother's shoulder.

The second brother clenched his fists slightly, and hit the eldest brother's chest with a muffled sound. Even if he controlled his strength at this time, with his fist strength, the eldest brother couldn't help but take a step back, but the eldest brother smiled bitterly and quipped, "It's old." ”

I didn't feel sad, so I turned my head away from them, but noticed the person who was following my eldest brother.

"Mother." Seeing that I noticed her, she bowed slightly, and her petite figure looked really awkward in men's clothes, and it was more and more commensurate with our army's camp, and it looked more and more out of place.

The eldest brother and the second brother also reacted when they heard this, and looked at her sideways.

"You're the girl next to Concubine Bai." I'm pretty sure I've seen her by the side of Concubine Bai.

But as she said that, she didn't expect her to fall to her knees all of a sudden, "Niangniang, Niangniang, you must save Concubine Bai's ......"

She suddenly couldn't cry, this scene came too suddenly, attracting the surrounding guards to look sideways, the eldest brother stepped forward and grabbed her, "Let's talk about it in the camp first." ”

My second brother and I looked at each other before following him in.

"What's going on?" The eldest brother threw the little girl aside, lost his patience, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by the second brother.

"His Majesty was seriously ill and in a coma for several days. The imperial doctor said that His Majesty's condition was really difficult to improve, rumors spread in Nancheng Palace, Concubine Ning wanted to bring the little prince to make trouble, and Concubine Ning Niangniang said in the palace that she wanted to bury Her Majesty with her mother and daughter on the day of Her Majesty's return to heaven. She cried so much that she was raining.

Huangfu Xuan...... Sick?! I only felt a roar in my ears, and I couldn't react.

"What kind of illness is Majesty?" I asked hurriedly.

But where did the little girl know, she just knelt there and cried so much that she couldn't speak anymore.

Huangfu is sick, why didn't anyone tell me? No matter how powerful Concubine Ning is in Nancheng Palace, she can't keep all the news from leaking.

I tried to turn around, but my leg went limp, and I lost my strength and fell backwards. The second brother helped me behind me at the right time to make me stand still again.

"Big brother." I reached out for him.

"You say." Big Brother Dao.

"The affairs of the camp are still up to you, and I want to go back and see." I was very confused, and I couldn't figure out why, but I thought of something again, turned to the side and said to the second brother, "Second brother, I have to trouble you to find someone for me." ”

If Huangfu Xuan is really seriously ill, I can only think of one person in this world who can save him.

Shen Yi.

The second brother nodded, and I was relieved, I didn't care much, and then walked out, but was pulled by the second brother again. "Xiao Jiu, be more careful."

I had long since lost sight of what I had noticed, and I had forgotten how long I had been riding.

My mind was blank.

It's just that in the middle of the night, I finally rushed back to the palace of Nancheng Wangcheng, and I was stopped at the gate of the city by the guards in my battle armor, "Who broke into the royal city?!" ”

"Get out!" I roared angrily, flung a whip over, and whipped him alive.

Restraining the horse and rushing into the palace again, I stopped outside the Huangfu Xuan's dormitory, turned over and dismounted, and rushed in, the whole action was done in one go. But his chamber was empty.

Where is he?

I asked myself, and an inexplicable sense of unease swept over me.

I suddenly thought of Yasugong. And he turned and came out of his bedchamber.

I didn't think about it for a while, but a large number of guards had already surrounded this place, and when they saw me coming out, they made a noise again.

"Presumptuous, don't you even know the queen?!" Someone outside the crowd suddenly shouted.

The guards moved out of the way.

Shao Yi walked over step by step from the back of the crowd, stopped in front of me, leaned down, and said respectfully, "The slave doesn't know that Niangniang returned to the palace late at night and failed to meet her in time, I hope Niangniang will forgive her sins." ”

"Where's Majesty?" I don't pay attention to the tensions around me that are both there and don't, and anyone who sees them can understand them.

At this time, there is more saber rattling and more of a bluff. Most of the dogs that can bite people don't bark, and the more tense the atmosphere in the palace is, it can only mean that the opportunity is in front of them, and they are all ready to move.

"Niangniang, please come with the minions." Shao Yi just turned around and faced the road he came from, and the time when he turned his back to me was only a moment, and I actually saw a different kind of fear in the eyes of the guards who surrounded the dormitory.

Shao Yi walked in front and led me towards the Jing Palace.

On the way, he didn't say a word, and I couldn't help but ask.

Entered the Jing Palace and walked to the east chamber. At the door of the East Chamber, Shao Yi pushed the door open, but retreated outside the door, turned sideways, and made way.

I walked in.

Huangfu Xuan lay on the bed, without the slightest movement, as if he had died.

From just stepping in, and then taking two steps forward, in this short moment, I couldn't help but be covered with a kind of uncomfortable illusion, scared, scared.

Step by step towards him, step by step I felt that I was heading towards despair.

Look at him through a veil.

And there he lay there, silent.

I lifted my hand and lifted the veil and sat down in front of the bed. I tried to see if he still had a snort, until I felt a faint breath remain, and then I felt that a large rock hanging was slowly lowering.

How so.

Good people, why do you say that you are sick?

It's like I never expected that someone who had been with me along the way would suddenly leave.

Some people, probably because they have nothing to do with love, take it for granted that they will not leave suddenly. Or rather, some people leave suddenly. But because it doesn't matter about feelings, it is natural that I don't feel so sad.

But how can I not be sad, for me and Yuan Ying, he is the best friend.

I had just found Yuan Ying, and the man who had accompanied us all the way was sick again.

Two days have passed, and Huang Fuxuan still shows no signs of waking up. I waited in front of the sickbed that he might wake up suddenly, this is a very small possibility, I always believe that if I delay one more day, my second brother will bring Shen Yi back.

But from dark to dawn, from dawn to dark, I didn't wait until someone suddenly pushed open the door and told me that my second brother brought Shen Yi. No, not only did the second brother have no news, but on the morning of the third day, even the eldest brother lost the news.

When Shao Yi walked up to me and told me about this, I didn't know what words to use to describe my current mood.

"What about Fuang?" I was silent for a few moments before I looked up and asked him.

Shao Yi replied, "After Niangniang led the troops to the battle, he had already disappeared. ”

My eyes were unexpectedly swollen and painful, and I closed my eyes to imagine what was happening, but there were still various images that appeared in my dark world. It hurts, the feeling in the chest, except that it hurts and it hurts.

Yuan Ying has never lost.

Even if he miscalculated my understanding of him, when I was glad that I used this step by step to force back the Northern Shao army, it turned out that Yuan Ying had already planned a qiē, and the praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches were behind.

I smiled bitterly, but I couldn't vent the anger in my heart, so I got up and swept the qiē off the table.

Von, it's Von!

By my side, listening to news and plans, his presence had already encouraged me to reclaim the East, even if he did nothing. I imagined thousands of times that Huang Fuxuan and I would join forces to put Wei Xiao under house arrest and sabotage Beishao's plans. But I've ignored a million times a person who is hiding around me all the time! Beishao didn't make much effort, but just facilitated the alliance between Wei Liang and Fu Ang, which was enough to use my self-righteousness to defeat Nancheng's largest military force in one fell swoop.

I stretched out my finger and pointed at myself, but I no longer knew what I wanted to say or what I could say.

Huangfu Xuan told me that he was sorry. I thought he meant that he regretted that he refused when he asked for help, but I didn't know that he was sorry, that is, he didn't really bring Fu Ang back.

"You," I forced to calm down, I couldn't mess up, I couldn't panic, even if I couldn't hold back the tears, even if I was sad, I had to pass the current hurdle first, "You go and see how many troops we can mobilize at the moment!" It is impossible for Ao Zhan to suddenly disappear with an army of 100,000 men, whether he is on Fu Ang's side or not, but if I can see him, maybe he will have a chance......"

Maybe I wanted to say that if I could see him, maybe he would miss the old feelings, but I swallowed the second half of the sentence that I wanted to blurt out back into my stomach. Seeing that you want to win, but you lose every time, and you lose so many times, why are you still stupid to believe it?!

It's just that I feel more and more powerless to defend myself, and I let them down, so I finally got such a result.

"Shaoyi, can I trust you?" I asked him, and at the moment I couldn't catch a single person around me who could use it.

Shao Yi always lowered his head, but he deviated slightly, looked at Huangfu Xuan, who was still lying in a coma on the bed, raised his eyes, looked at me, and then lowered his head again.

I see what he means.

"You go and calculate how many troops we can mobilize now, and by the way, let someone pass a word back to Xiangshan Cottage and give it to Master Qingyan." This is the last way to go. "Yin and yang are repulsive, and they are at stake."

When these words were brought to Qing Yan, he must know who to pass them on.

They will believe that I sacrificed my life to save Huang Fuxuan, and if I forcibly urge Zhaohua Jasper's ability, it will definitely end like this.

Shao Yi stepped back in response.

I couldn't help but laugh and cry.

I'm not stupid, but stupid, I always lose too much trust, even though Ao Zhan is my eldest brother, I warned myself to be vigilant when I first looked for him to enter Nancheng, but I still couldn't help but believe him, compared to Lao Jiu, he should be more eastward.

It's just that I still don't know at the moment how much Huang Fuxuan's sudden illness has to do with Fu Ang.

If it was Fuang's design, even if it was Wei Xiao's conspiracy to poison Huangfu Xuan or something, I don't know how I would face Fuang from now on.
