The wind was bitterly cold, and the battered door panels hit the door frame back and forth. Xiao Han huddled beside the abandoned stove with his legs hugged, feeling so aggrieved that he wanted to die.

"It's coming, it's coming!" Lan'er trotted into the house with a pile of dry firewood, "Look, princess, I found some dry firewood again, and it will be warm again soon!" ”

Xiao Han quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and leaned over: "It's wet everywhere outside, and you don't have an axe and machete, where did you pick up so much dry firewood?" ”

"The slave also thinks it's strange!" Lan'er's face was full of surprise, "Maybe God knows that we are innocent so he has mercy on us, anyway, there are always some scattered dry branches around these days, you just need to go farther, and you don't have to make any effort." ”

She nodded, not thinking too much, it was a blessing to have a hot fire under such conditions, no matter where it came from. The two were busy preparing to light a fire, when suddenly there were several fluttering sounds outside, followed by a "clucking" chirp.

Lan'er's eyes turned round in an instant, and even Lu Xiaohan was so surprised that when she came back to her senses, the two of them ran towards the door together, and sure enough, they saw two chickens, a male and a female, pecking on the ground.

"Ahh The two were so excited that they screamed and jumped, and hugged each other in the same place for several circles.

"It's really an endless road," Xiao Han sighed, "Every day I thought I was going to be hungry, but every day there will be different surprises, God really favors us!" ”

"That's it!" Lan'er nodded her head like a rattle, "The slave maid thought that most of these days I had to fill my stomach with wild vegetables and weeds, but I didn't expect to pick up an injured wild eagle on the first day, which was enough for us to deal with three days of food, and it was the first time I had eaten eagle meat, and it was really fragrant and chewy to eat it!" She couldn't help but close her eyes and take a breath, as if the smell of roasted wild eagles was still in the air, "Then on the fourth day, I found two grass carp caught in broken nets by the river, so we drank three delicious fish soups...... That taste is really ......" Lan'er couldn't help licking her lips again, "The slave maid thought last night, I'm afraid that my good luck will run out, and I may start to go hungry tomorrow, who would have thought that today I was so overjoyed that it was so exaggerated that we picked up two chickens!" Saying that, Lan'er looked for a direction randomly, knelt down and began to worship, and kept chanting words like "Bodhisattva bless Buddha blessed".

Lu Xiaohan, who was originally following the blind pleasure, vaguely began to sense that something was wrong after listening to Lan'er's grooming, right, how could there be such a good thing? One after another, they were able to pick up food and firewood without much effort, just like ......

"May I ask if the one in front of you is a pity princess?" A neat voice sounded from behind, jumping Xiaohan and Lan'er.

"Who are you?"

The person who came knelt on one knee and said, "The last general is the prince's person, because of the entrustment of Lord Lu, who came to rescue the princess and return to the north." ”

"Rescue me? How do you know ......?"

"Princess, the news of the army's poisoning has already been reported back to the imperial court, and Lord Lu learned that you were mistaken for a murderer, so he hurriedly went to ask the prince for help, and the prince sent the last general to go, and the last general also rushed here without sleep."

When Lan'er heard this, she cheered, grabbed the princess and said happily: "Great, great, Niangniang, we can go home soon!" ”

Xiao Han pressed Lan'er's hand and asked cautiously, "But my father and the crown prince ...... They had never been in one camp, so why did he go around the bend to beg the prince instead of sending someone himself? Our Lu family is not unappealing. ”

"The princess is negligent, this time is different from the past, now it is the three princes who want to punish you, firstly, Lord Lu has been following him in the past, and secondly, in terms of strength, Lord Lu can't fight the prince, combining these two, the only one who dares and can help the most is His Royal Highness the Prince."

After careful consideration, what the guard said made quite sense, but she still didn't understand a little: "You just said that there is a huge disparity in strength between my father and the prince, but the prince only sent you here, and there is no big battle." ”

The guard shook his head and said, "It's not just the last general who came, our army was already in ambush near the camp of the three princes, but later it was found out that you had fled a few days ago, so the three of us and the other three searched for it in this vicinity alone, and as soon as they found your traces this morning, the other two hurried back to the previous post station to find a horse." ”

Xiao Han nodded: "In this way, it's really like this." Has the army that the prince was ambushing there have retreated? ”

"This ......," the guard was a little hesitant, "I don't know the details of the general, I guess I will retreat after executing the order." ”

She heard him say this ambiguously, and she felt a little uneasy in her heart.

"Princess, you go in first to rest, and when they come back with their horses, we will immediately set off for Beixiao. The weather is fair today, and I think they should be there in the afternoon. ”

Xiao Han nodded and took Lan'er back to the broken house to rest. Lan'er was so happy that she kept chattering: "Niangniang, you see that this is really a village with no way out, willows and flowers!" I thought that it would be thousands of miles away, and we two weak women who were helpless and helpless were afraid that there was no hope of returning to China, so how could I have thought that it would be solved so quickly! Sure enough, it's good to have a strong mother's family! ”

Xiao Han shook his head and said thoughtfully: "I don't think it's too early to be happy about this matter, there must be a lot of complicated secrets that we don't know, and even if we return to China safely, the big case of poisoning the soldiers will still be investigated, and if we are convicted, we can't even escape." ”

Lan'er heard what her master said, so she lowered her face gloomy again and sighed: "Ah...... If you don't go back, you're dead, and if you go back, you're likely to die, so don't we have a way to save a little bit? ”

How to keep it safe...... Xiao Han repeated Lan'er's words in her heart, and an inexplicable figure flashed in her mind, this person was not a prince or a father, but the executioner of this disaster: Xiao Yu. I don't know why, Xiao Han always feels that relying on him can really solve this catastrophe.

"You say...... If we go back to the prince and explain it to him, will he believe that we are innocent? ”

"Naturally not, didn't you hear their conversation that day, all the suspicions of the others have been eliminated, only you are left! Besides, if we are really innocent, why should we run away? Miscellaneous must be even more unreasonable. ”

Xiao Han jumped up and said, "You pulled me to run away that day!" ”

Lan'er had a bitter face: "But the prince doesn't know, he doesn't care who we are pulling and who is running, in short, if we run, we are naturally a weak-hearted cousin." ”

"Y-hey!" She sighed, saying this is useless now, let's go back to Beixiao for the time being, since my father sent someone to rescue, there must be some arrangements. ”

(I'm going to take an exam today, so today's chapter was pre-saved yesterday, and I'm fighting in the exam room at the moment, so let's wish me good luck)
