Chapter 352: The Ravine
"Mother." Brother Ping'er's voice screamed softly, leaning on Su Nian's arms and coquettishly.
Su Nian once felt that Brother Ping was like installing a Duracell energy ring, and he couldn't be idle all day, but he was really out of energy at this time, as if he had run out of electricity.
Sitting in the carriage all the time, even adults can't stand it, let alone a child who is just over two years old.
But Brother Ping didn't make trouble, but he wasn't very energetic and abrasive, but it made Su Nian feel even more distressed.
Holding Brother Ping in her arms and hugging her tightly, Su Nian used her body to cushion her son, hoping to make him feel better, "Baby, let's go home, and when we get home, it's fine." ”
Xiao Ge reached out and hugged Su Nianye, letting her lean on his chest and be silent.
The team moved forward for a while, and then they slowed down and rested for a while, the distance from Liao to Li Chao was not short, although they brought enough supplies, but so many people, they couldn't hold on to Li Chao.
Most of the surrounding areas of the Liao State are deserts, and there are no conditions for them to be self-sufficient in food and clothing, so they cannot deviate from the official road, and can only hope to distance themselves from the pursuers of the Liao State in terms of speed.
It's just that there are women and children in the car, old and young, and they carry a lot of things, and even a few horses can't run to death, so as expected, they were still caught up.
When the messy sound of horses' hooves surrounded them, Su Nian subconsciously hugged Brother Ping tighter, these people outside who caught up with them so quickly could not be people from the Li Dynasty, what did the King of Liao want to do with them, Su Nian didn't have any bottom in his heart.
Xiao Ge patted Su Nian and motioned for her to sit in the middle of the carriage. Don't lean against the wall of the box, and smiled at her. I lifted the curtain and walked out.
Su Nian glanced through the gap in the curtain and glanced at the situation outside. It is very not optimistic, at least the line of sight she can see is full of Liao people with numb faces.
The curtain was quickly lowered, blocking Su Nian's vision, she hugged Brother Ping and took a deep breath, trying to make her heartbeat not so fast, the love of her parents can easily be transmitted to the child, Brother Ping is already a little uncomfortable, she doesn't want to deepen her son's uneasiness.
But the soundproofing system of this carriage is too good! I can't hear anything. What the hell is going on out there!
Not that way, at least, we have to know what will happen to them.
Su Nian was worried, when he saw Coral move, clinging to the bottom of the carriage and crawling over lightly, and then secretly lifted the curtain from underneath, and the voice of the voice immediately became clear.
Great! Su Nian sighed, and then hugged Brother Ping'er hard, this child. Is that fun too? He saw that Coral was struggling with his movements, and he seemed to want to try it too.
"Baby, don't move, let's listen to what Daddy has to say, okay?"
Brother Ping immediately stopped, his eyes widened. Stick your head out a bit.
"Xiao Guogong, the King of Liao heard that Guogong came to our Liao Kingdom, and specially sent a villain to come. Welcoming the Duke of Liao to the Imperial Palace, the King of Liao has prepared a grand welcome banquet for you. ”
"Thank you King Liao for your kindness. It's just that Xiao came here this time just to visit relatives, and now people have seen it. Since it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, when Xiao returns to the Li Dynasty, he will definitely convey the kindness of the King of Liao to the emperor, and when the time comes, he will definitely go with the envoys of the Li Dynasty to ask the King of Liao for peace. ”
Xiao Ge's voice was neither humble nor arrogant, Su Nian listened to it funny, and what he said was true, when they returned to Liao, the brain-dead would take the initiative to ask Ying to visit the King of Liao, and it was also thanks to Xiao Ge that he could speak so sincerely.
Sure enough, the people of Liao didn't believe it, "Xiao Guogong's words are wrong, how can you not meet the King of Liao when you come to Liao?" Could it be that Lord Guogong doesn't take King Liao in his eyes? ”
Is this in a hurry? Su Nian moved outside a little, it was inconvenient to hold Brother Ping'er, but she didn't dare to let go! She hasn't figured out the excitement of this kid yet, what if he gets excited and rushes out?
Xiao Ge's voice was heard more clearly, "My lord's words are serious, however, there are also people from the Liao State in Xiao's mansion, and when they heard that they came back from the province, they never mentioned that they had seen the King of Liao, could it be that the King of Liao was so close to the people, and everyone who came to the Liao Kingdom would see it in person?" ”
"Of course not! Xiao Guogong is the pacification of the Li Dynasty, his identity is extremely noble, how can he be compared with ordinary people, the king of Liao told the small one to bring the prince back, the emperor's order is difficult, and please don't embarrass the small one. ”
"What if I don't want to?"
"Then, the small one can only use a slightly more drastic method to invite the Guogong back, and when he is in front of the King of Liao, the small one will kowtow to the Guogong to make amends!"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and Su Nian could almost imagine the latter sentence "Give it to me!" She turned Brother Ping'er's face to herself, wishing she could hide him in her arms.
As if feeling Su Nian's nervousness, Brother Ping was very well-behaved, motionless in Su Nian's arms, and did not make any sound.
But why hasn't this sentence been uttered? How long is this appetite to hang? Are all the people of Liao doing this?
Su Nian was in a hurry, it was really fatal, and I hated that there was no sound at this critical juncture, how do you want to give an explanation! The King of Liao should not want their lives for the time being, after all, there is a plan, if they all die, he will not only get nothing, but will also offend the Li Dynasty in vain.
Xiao Ge is a pacification of the country, no matter what the emperor thinks of him now, Xiao Ge's status is there, if Xiao Ge has three longs and two shorts, then it will be okay, and he will send a reason for justice to the emperor of the Li Dynasty.
Thinking about it, King Liao is not so stupid, so Su Nian is just nervous, after all, there are so many real knives and guns around, she has seen little, and it is normal for her to be afraid.
But what does it mean that there has been no sound for so long? Su Nian waited impatiently, and gently put Brother Ping into Yueniang's arms, and she also crawled over and peeked slowly like a bug.
Xiao Ge was standing in front of their carriage, and from Su Nian's point of view, he could only see a back, standing straight, standing better than anyone else.
Opposite him, there were rows of soldiers, a man who was dressed in a low-key manner, but his clothes shone slightly in the sun, and he looked like good material at a glance, standing in front of Xiao Ge, at this moment, this person's face was full of trouble, and a small soldier was whispering something in his ear.
Su Nian could only see that the man's brows were furrowed tighter and tighter, and they were almost wrinkled into a ravine.
It took a long time before this person raised his head and looked at Xiao Ge with complicated eyes, "Xiao Guogong, let's hurry up and get on the road, the King of Liao is still waiting, come here, invite Xiao Guogong back!" ”
Coming, coming, coming, Su Nian really looked forward to this, seeing that so many officers and soldiers surrounded him, even if he knew that their lives would probably not be in danger, Su Nian still couldn't stop his heart from beating faster.
Xiao Ge still stood still, his body didn't shake for a moment, Mei Ying and the Mei family's guards quickly surrounded them, but Xiao Ge stopped them, "We can't continue to stay in Liao Kingdom, in that case, someone will be in a hurry." ”
Mei Ying heard Xiao Ge's whispered words, and didn't know what they meant, but he still didn't retreat, and the old man's order was to escort Young Master Xiao Ge back at any cost, regardless of the price.
"Xiao Guogong, I advise you not to resist, the King of Liao is a heart, if you hurt your person, it will not be good." The man stood there, looking at Xiao Ge with a smile on his face, and kindly gave him advice.
Xiao Ge also smiled and nodded, "That's true, if you get hurt, it's not good." ”
At this time, suddenly someone rushed over from the back of the team, and said something in that person's ear, this time it was really a ravine, and the smile that appeared on his face just now was gone, Su Nian couldn't bear to look at it, and the feeling of collapsing in an instant, tsk, it was really pitiful.
There was a commotion at the back of the team, and there was the sound of weapons colliding, mixed with screams, which made the faces of the soldiers who had come to Xiao Ge's side and hesitate how to do it have panic on their faces.
What happened? What's going on?
"My lord! Someone sneak attacked! ”
The team finally panicked, someone sneaked attack? How is this possible? Who would dare to sneak up on the Liao King's team?
They aimed to pursue speed this time, so there weren't many people brought, so how could anyone sneak attack? Could it be that they have been robbed?
"Don't panic, don't panic, it's just a rabble, take them down!"
This adult couldn't take care of Xiao Ge anymore, so he summoned all the soldiers back, and first ensured his own safety, Xiao Ge and the others were here, and they were afraid that he would be able to run away?
The sound of the battle seemed to be in her ears, Su Nian was a little afraid to look at it, and she couldn't help but look at it, she was afraid that those thugs would come to their carriage, although they were protected by Xiao Ge and the Mei family's guards, but they were outnumbered, this was common sense.
But what made Su Nian feel amazing was that she forced herself to observe the situation, but she observed something strange, are these thugs not very good-looking?
There were a few carriages here, and it was clear that there should be something of value in them, but she didn't see a single thug.
What are you doing in front of you?! What a pity to waste combat power in vain?
There were fewer and fewer Liao people left around the carriage, and the front was tight, so they had to replenish, and a layer of yellow sand mist was wafting around, and the visibility became very low, Su Nian could smell the smell of blood in the air, and hurriedly closed the curtain.
Then these people didn't come for money, the Liao army was marked, and they dared to make a move, for what?
Suddenly, Su Nian's body shook, and she felt that the carriage under her began to move again, her eyes widened, and she was about to take a look, when she heard someone knock on the wall of the box, "It's okay, don't be afraid." ”
It was Xiao Ge's voice, Su Nian put his mind at ease, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. (To be continued......)
