Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Qinling Mountains

After a short time, when the group returned to the place where they had dismounted, there was another group of soldiers in heavy armor waiting for everyone to return again, and then they got on their horses and prepared to leave.

"Back to camp!"

The words fell, accompanied by the sound of Jin Ge Iron Horse, and everyone began to rush back.

After a long time, the procession finally came to a high wall that stretched with no end in sight, and led by the leading man, rode into the city gate on a fast horse.

The Great Wall stretched for miles across the earth, and there was no end in sight, but it was not like the walls of the city of Luoguo, not so tall and strong.

Because it was a temporary Great Wall, and behind the Great Wall was an endless joint camp, and all the troops led by King Ning to the south camped here.

The Great Wall lies across the earth, completely isolating the southern frontier of the country of Luo, and a pavilion is set up on the wall every certain distance, and there are soldiers of the country of Luoguo stationed in turn day and night in the pavilion, maintaining a very high level of vigilance at any time.

"Report!"

As soon as the group returned to the garrison camp, a scout suddenly hurried from outside the camp, and as soon as they entered the camp, they immediately knelt on one knee on the ground, holding a flying book in both hands.

The man who had just returned to the Chinese army camp under the escort frowned slightly, and quickly took the things in the scout's hand left and right and sent them to him.

When he opened the letter slowly, he frowned, and suddenly closed the information from the royal capital, and slammed it on the table!

"Ridiculous!"

Rao has been calm for many years, and now he is also angry in his heart.

"His Royal Highness King Ning, what happened?"

It turned out that this person was the younger brother of the current King of Luo, King Ning, and he was also the final commander of the army of Luo Kingdom going south, as for the other weak man who looked very young next to King Ning at the moment, it was the prince of Chu Hua who had been ordered to go to the south of Xinjiang since the king's capital.

"He actually agreed to the Ato's mission, and I, the princess of Luoguo, went to make peace with the Ato's country!"

King Ning spoke again, his tone was a little low, and when the words fell, he slowly raised his head again, turned to look at the prince of Chu Hua next to him, and continued: "Now that the Heqin delegation has set off, it is coming straight to my southern defense army with the king's order!"

"Ato's Country...... Wouldn't that be to force your way through the southern frontier!"

After listening to what King Ning said, Prince Chu Hua seemed to suddenly understand something, and soon the calm on his face was replaced by a shock.

"Yes, there's only one way......

King Ning's fists clenched, he is the younger brother of King Chaoluo, the uncle of Princess Xiyue, who has been in the army for many years, and has a strong personality inside and out, but he is very fond of Xiyue, and he naturally has his own pride as a royal family, even if Luo Guo is facing that terrible nightmare now, it is difficult for him to change his natural integrity.

But in the end, he forced himself to calm down.

"Chu Hua, please follow me to this southern Xinjiang land, I will give you the position of joining the army, and now this king has ordered me to send someone to escort the princess to southern Xinjiang, what do you think?"

Chu Hua, as a disciple of the Taifu, was already listed in the palace at a young age, and his future was limitless, and now he automatically asked for an order to come here to participate in the army and generals, and King Ning naturally valued him very much.

But after all, the prince of Chu Hua is also the first to come to this southern Xinjiang land, no wonder he has lived in the royal capital of the peaceful and prosperous era since he was a child, and he has never seen the bloody scenes of southern Xinjiang, so he has the appearance of his previous gaffe.

"Southern Xinjiang is in danger, this trip to Ato must cross the land of southern Xinjiang, this king knows this better than us, and Princess Xiyue is the king's favorite princess, this act of harmony has a deep meaning!"

Chu Hua's eyes showed a contemplative look, but he didn't continue at this point, as if he still had some scruples in his heart.

"You mean ......"

seemed to vaguely understand Chu Hua's meaning, King Ning also narrowed his eyes slightly, and his face showed a thoughtful look.

"Luoguo, wasteland, and Atto stand on three legs, and they border with southern Xinjiang, and now southern Xinjiang is in chaos, no more than man-made disasters, this walking corpse is rampant and does not distinguish between enemies and me, my Luo country is like this, I think in addition to the wasteland herdsmen who are the source of the disaster, Atto must also be affected!"

"Go on!"

Chu Hua's voice fell, and King Ning naturally understood what he was thinking.

"The princess's move to reconcile with her relatives, if it can be successful, Luo Guo and Ato's marriage will be good, and they will fight back and forth, maybe they really have a chance to quell the rebellion in southern Xinjiang, and even calm the ambitions of the wasteland!"

This time, when Chu Hua's words fell, King Ning was silent for a long time, and finally suddenly raised his head and let out a long breath, his deep gaze continued to look into the distance, as if he already had a plan in his heart.

"I hope he thinks the same way, the foundation of the country of Los Angeles cannot be destroyed in our hands......"

The muttering fell, and King Ning suddenly raised his head and commanded outside the big tent: "Come here, gather all the magicians in the army!"

......

The sun is setting, on the land leading to the southern border, the friendly team is like a long dragon, moving forward mightily, and there are messengers coming and running from time to time before and after the team, and the news of the team's whereabouts is constantly transmitted in the front and back directions.

"Where?"

At this time, in a carriage in the middle of the entire team, with a calm voice slowly sounding, the maid who was accompanying the carriage heard it, and hurriedly looked back and forth before bowing her head and carefully replied: "Your Royal Highness Princess, there is Qinling in front of you, and after Qinling, you will reach the southern border!"

Hearing the maid say this, Xiyue, who was in the middle of the car, was silent for a while, and suddenly spoke again: "Wan'er, you tell everyone to stop!"

"Princess....... The slave is Qing'er, didn't you say don't want Wan'er to come?"

"Qing'er ......"

Xi Yue's murmuring in the car seemed to be a little distracted, and after a while, the whole friendly team gradually stopped.

On the side of the car where Princess Xiyue was, the accompanying palace maid hurriedly stepped forward and carefully opened the driving curtain, and Xiyue, dressed in red, walked out of the car.

When the procession stopped, another group of Ato envoys, dressed in a very different style from the others, turned around, and several of them turned around and rode towards the car, followed by the entourage of Luo Guo.

After a while, a tall and thin man, with a white scarf inlaid with jewels on his head, a high nose bridge and slightly sunken eyes, came to the front of the car and said in a somewhat awkward tone: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, why did you suddenly stop?"

Xiyue smiled slightly but didn't answer the guy, but continued to walk down from the car with the support of the maids on the left and right.

Seeing this scene, the envoy of Ato also frowned slightly, and then the envoy of Luoguo, who accompanied him, signaled to him, and whispered something in his ear, so he reluctantly nodded, turned his horse back, and hurried towards the front of the team.

Look at the sky, it is now evening, and we have been rushing for days, although there are special officials and people along the way, but so far the whole team has also shown a trace of fatigue.

"Everybody rest in place!"

When the envoy left, the envoy of the Luo State who was escorted casually commanded loudly, and when the words fell, he thought about it and seemed to feel that something was wrong, so he continued to say to a guard beside him: "Divide a group of people to continue to move forward, take care of everything along the way, and order the messenger to go to the camp of the southern Xinjiang garrison to ask for troops to meet him!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, the guard quickly retreated, and soon a man and a horse galloped out of the ranks, heading straight for the dark outline of the Qinling Mountains.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner, Xiyue walked down the car, accompanied by the attendant maid, to the edge of the official road, where stood a huge stone stele, the stele did not know how many years had passed, and it was already covered with moss.

"Qinling"

The inscription on the stele had become very blurry, but when she saw the two big characters with a hint of ancient desolation on the stele, Xiyue slowly stretched out her right hand and stroked it towards the stele.

It's cold to the touch, with a kind of chill!

"Princess!"

It seemed that the person had been infected by the scene in front of him, and beside Xiyue, the voice of the maid Qing'er sounded again, pulling Xiyue's thoughts back;

"After the Qinling Mountains and out of southern Xinjiang, it no longer belongs to the country of Luo......"

At this time, Xiyue's voice was very calm, maybe for so long, she had already been ready to accept all this, or her heart had gradually become numb, that Qing'er wanted to say something, but just because she heard this sentence, she was stunned all of a sudden.

Not only Qing'er, but the other maids around her were also silent, and after a while, they didn't know who was the first to raise their heads and look in the direction they came.

And that direction is the direction of the royal capital, and it is also the direction of the hometown of these missions who are about to set foot in a foreign land!

Xiyue raised her head again, obviously in this late autumn, the afterglow of the sunset appeared on the horizon again, and it seemed that there was a kind of sadness that made the entire team quiet.

I don't know how long it took, but finally a guard came from the middle of the line and walked quickly towards Xiyue and the others.

"Your Highness, it's time for us to go!"

Hearing the urging voice, Xiyue suddenly and slowly closed her eyes that seemed to be a little blurred, and was silent for a moment, and when she opened her eyes again, she had regained her calm again.

This is her fate, and the fate of all.

"Let's go!"

Xiyue, who was distracted, turned around, but when she inadvertently saw the guards behind her, she was stunned, because that familiar face had reappeared in front of her!

"Little ...... Little Fuzi!"

At this time, Xiyue was shocked, that kind of abrupt surprise, which made her look as if she had just woken up from a dream, at this time, several maids beside Xiyue were still in a daze, and the entire friendly team was still in place, and at the same time, the Qinling Mountains were really in the distance!

But it's true, everything is true.
