Chapter 159: There are still fifty miles to go, and the situation is very bad...... Come on! (Ask for a monthly pass)
Out of Chang'an City, galloping for nearly an hour, the sky is getting brighter.
Cheng Chubi and the others did not stay at a post station until it was temporarily noon, ate something hastily, and fell asleep.
Almost an hour later, he set off again, and hurried until it was getting dark, and Cheng Chubi was thinking about waiting for a rest at the post station before setting off.
At this moment, the cavalry leading the way in front suddenly shouted loudly. "There's a fire ahead, a lot of fire."
"All assemble and protect the carriage!" Yu Chi Baoqing's face immediately changed, and he shouted loudly.
In just a few breaths, fifty elite cavalry instantly formed a circle. And the center of the circle is the three masters and servants of Cheng Chubi.
Fortunately, soon, a cluster of fire came quickly. "The person from the other side is Cheng Chubi Cheng Saburo?"
Without waiting for Cheng Chubi to speak, Yu Chi Baoqing rode his horse forward for more than ten steps, waved the long lance in his hand, and shouted loudly.
"A certain is the East Palace's Zuo Nei rate envoy Chi Baoqing, who are you waiting for?!"
"Sure enough, it's you, I'm under the command of General Chai, the general of the Right Xiaowei, and Deng Guangxian, the general of the Right Xiaowei, at the behest of His Majesty, I have come to greet Cheng Sanlang."
Hearing the answer between the two, Cheng Chubi, who was also a little nervous, finally let out a turbid breath.
Cheng Chubi stepped forward to inquire with this Deng Lang general and learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already sent an urgent messenger of 800 miles to Jiucheng Palace.
After receiving the news, Uncle Li immediately ordered to send an elite right guard iron horse to meet him.
Wei Chi Baoqing and the others were relieved, they were exhausted, and their mission was completed.
After saying goodbye to Cheng Chubi, he was ready to go to the nearest Xunjian post station to rest and rest, but he was sleepy and tired, and he was really not happy to continue to hurry.
As for the three masters and servants of Cheng Chubi, they still have to follow the team.
Fortunately, Uncle Li explained that General Deng Lang led the army to come, and he did not forget to bring a carriage that could carry people.
Cheng Chubi, who had already rubbed his two thighs hot, went straight into it and lay down directly.
Even if the carriage is too bumpy to sleep, there is a place to lie down and rest.
#####
"Cheng Qing, they don't know if they have arrived at Jiucheng Palace?"
Li Chengqian, who had not rested all night, stood outside the Lizheng Hall and looked towards the west.
That direction is exactly where the Jiucheng Palace is located.
Ning Zhong, who was waiting beside Li Chengqian, saw Li Chengqian's haggard appearance and persuaded worriedly.
"Your Highness, General Cheng has always been brave and loyal, he has been entrusted by Your Highness, and he will definitely do his best to rush to Jiucheng Palace."
"Please don't worry too much, Your Highness. Your Highness, let's go and rest. ”
"If Niangniang falls ill in Jiucheng Palace, if you have another accident, how can it be good?"
Li Chengqian sighed faintly, thinking about it.
"The queen mother has been in good health all these years, and she suddenly suffered from this serious illness, is it because she is not devout enough to the gods and Buddhas......
Hearing Li Chengqian's question, Ning Zhong blinked, but he really didn't know how to answer.
"I heard that the Longxing Temple in Luoyang is very effective, so I quickly sent someone to Luoyang to pray for my mother."
"If my mother recovers, she will go to Luoyang in person to repay her vows......"
"By the way, there are also many Taoist temples on Zhongnan Mountain.
Dao Ancestor Li Er, who is the master of my Li family, immediately sent people to the Zhongnan Mountain Temple. ”
"Please pray for my mother, if the queen mother is healed, Lone will also go to the Zhongnan Mountain Temples to repay the vows in person......"
looked at His Royal Highness the Prince, who was completely out of order, full of gods and Buddhas begging everywhere.
What could Ning Zhong say, he could only nod his head and agree. "Your Highness, please be relieved, the slave and maid will order someone to do it in a while."
"But Your Highness, you have to rest, tomorrow is the time of the East Palace, and you have to make up your mind for all matters of the country."
Li Chengqian, who had a very serious feudal superstitious thought, nodded, and was about to leave, when he finally confessed.
"Well, okay, that's it? Remember, send more people.
As long as it is a famous mountain and ancient temple, they will send people to ask for a prayer and worship it. ”
"Yes, Your Highness, slave maid remember. Your Highness, let's go back......"
Li Chengqian rubbed his eyebrows and strode away, but in his heart, he was already praying to the gods he knew.
Bless the queen mother to be healed and in good health.
After receiving Cheng Chubi, with the shouting order of General Deng Lang, two hundred iron horsemen turned their horses' heads, and the rear team turned to the front team.
The iron horsemen surrounded the two carriages and wore the stars and the moon, and galloped in the direction of the Jiucheng Palace with torches.
Along the way, even if the cushion of the carriage was very soft, but this carriage without shock absorption, even if it was a stone with a large finger.
Cheng Chubi, who was lying in the carriage, could also feel it, just so drowsy, half-asleep, listening to the rumbling of iron hooves outside......
Cheng Chubi, who was sleeping in a daze, suddenly heard a loud shout from outside the carriage.
"Where is Cheng Saburo?!"
"General Zhao? Cheng Saburo is inside. ”
Cheng Chubi, who had already been awakened, opened the curtain of the car and saw Zhao Kunze, the hairy-faced escort next to Uncle Li, galloping forward.
"Quick, get on the horse, quickly follow me into the Jiucheng Palace to treat Niangniang."
Hearing Zhao Kun's impatient tone, Cheng Chubi's heart suddenly hung up.
immediately jumped out of the carriage and jumped onto a horse that Zhao Kun had let him give up.
"General Zhao, how far is it?"
"There are still fifty miles to go, and the situation is very bad...... Come on! Follow me, don't worry about horsepower, just run. ”
Zhao Kun bowed his head slightly towards Cheng, turned the horse's head and whipped it down.
The good horse under him began to spread his hooves and galloped in the direction of Jiucheng Palace, and Cheng Chubi could only bend down with all his might.
To reduce the impact of the wind on the line of sight, fortunately, along the way, Zhao Kun has already been prepared.
Almost every dozen paces, a cavalryman with a torch illuminates the way.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Chubi's heart sank suddenly, and Empress Eldest Sun's condition suddenly deteriorated?
Cheng Chubi had no way to concentrate on thinking about the problem, so he got off his mount and galloped out of the place of about ten miles.
I heard Zhao Kun in front of me drinking. "Slow down, stop, change horses right here."
Cheng Chubi panted and jumped off the mount and patted the good horse.
Only then did he notice that the horse was already panting and sweating like pulp because it was speeding at full speed.
"Cheng Sanlang, stunned, hurry up and drink saliva, get on the horse, and go quickly!" Zhao Kun moistened his throat with his saliva and jumped onto the newly pulled mount.
Cheng Chubi could only grit his teeth and learn from him, and the war horse once again galloped towards the direction of Jiucheng Palace at the fastest speed.
Such a high speed, even the best horse, cannot last.
Cheng Chubi tried his best to control his sore legs to maintain a running posture with his buttocks hanging in the air, and complained frantically in his heart.
Other traversers all enjoy the good news and bad news brought by the eight-hundred-mile expeditious, and have spare time to grieve the spring and autumn.
Only Lao Tzu, I really know how tired it is to rush to 800 miles.
