In the chamber of the Northwest Marshal's Mansion, the lights are bright and the atmosphere is solemn.

There was a large number of kneeling people in the hall, all of them bowing their heads in terror; Even Zeng Ji and Xie Changxin, who were sitting on the side and had experienced a hundred battles, also showed a worried look.

Because Xiao Yizheng, who was sitting in the hall, said that his face was gloomy, and it was not an exaggeration to say that his eyes showed murderous intent.

Because Princess Heng actually came to Beisu, and at this moment, I am afraid that she has entered the Kingdom of Guiping; But they didn't know until now.

Everyone on their knees told the story of what they knew about Princess Heng.

The room was quiet and eerie, as if you could hear the sound of snow falling quietly outside the house, softly, softly, but you could also hear the momentum of the coming snowstorm.

Xiao Yizheng's right hand was holding a letterhead, which was the book that Moon Shadow presented to him and Qingxi wrote to him.

His hands trembled slightly, his lips whited, and he listened without saying a word, then slowly stood up with the back of his chair and took two steps forward, a little shaky.

Zeng Ji and Xie Changxin hurriedly got up, but they didn't know what to say. They have been with Xiao Yizheng for a long time, and they rarely see him angry, but this time, they know that although King Heng did not speak sharply and jumped like thunder, he was really angry.

"Moon Shadow, follow me." Xiao Yizheng said with a cold face.

Moon Shadow lowered her eyes, kneeling for too long, her legs were sore and numb, and it took a while to get up and stand firm, and followed him out of the council room.

The rest of the people did not dare to get up because they were not commanded. This is headed by Xie Changyin, the governor of Beisu, who was also shocked when he got the news, and when he came to the Shuai Mansion, he simply and clearly excused himself. His son Xie Zhi, who has always been calm and respectful, actually did such a groundbreaking thing this time, and took the private guards of Xie Mansion to help Princess Heng go to Guiping Country through the Xiwang Mountain Road with the customs clearance waist card of the Southwest Shuai Mansion.

In addition to the North City Gate, Beiwang Mountain and Xiwang Mountain are two crossings that can go out of the city to the countries of the Western Regions, both of which are heavily guarded by Dacheng. The Heavenly Wolf Battalion in Beiwang Mountain is the elite force of the Northwest Army, while the task of the Dihu Battalion in Xiwang Mountain is to ensure the unimpeded passage from Dacheng to Pingping in wartime. The Danda army knew that it was impossible to attack Dacheng from these two mountains, so they would not send troops to harass them at all.

Xie Changxin stepped forward to help his brother get up: "The eldest nephew is in a big trouble." ”

Xie Changyin was anxious in his heart: "If the princess has a mistake, my Xie family will die." ”.ν.

Zeng Ji on the side sighed: "I have a lot of dealings with the Ling Mansion, and the princess also grew up under my watch." I know her personality, Your Highness is now angry, scared and worried, but not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, and will not anger the innocent. I have already asked our rabbit cub to order the two thousand elites of the Sky Wolf Battalion and quickly set off to Guiping, hoping that everything will be fine. ”

After Moon Shadow followed Xiao Yizheng into the door, she knelt down again very consciously.

"Your Highness, don't blame the princess. She hasn't had a good night's sleep since you came to the Northwest. I heard that you were wounded by a sword, so I begged the young master to help her come to Beisu. I wanted to say that I would return to Shangdu as long as I knew that you were fine. But I know that she is reluctant to leave, she just wants to be closer to you, but I am afraid that you will be distracted and delay the big event. I don't know what the princess and the princess said, but she gave me a letter early this morning asking me to hand it over to you if I see you, and asked me to send Miss Zhixi to Xie's mansion. As soon as I entered the Xie Mansion, I wouldn't let me go out. I only then realized that I had vaguely guessed that she might have gone to peace. She was a little angry when she said: "She must have been afraid that I would drag my feet so she wouldn't take me there." After a pause, he lowered his voice again, and choked up: "She doesn't want me to be in danger." She raised her eyes and begged, "Your Highness, don't be angry with her. She must be for the good of His Highness and for the good of Dacheng. Your Highness, the princess can't have an accident! ”

"Who said something was going to happen to her!" Xiao Yizheng roared.

Moon Shadow froze.

Xiao Yizheng was dizzy, and hurriedly sat down with the chair handle on the side. He looked at the tearful Moon Shadow, thinking that Qingxi was reluctant to even scold her in the past, if he scolded her maid, she would be angry, so he said weakly: "You get up, who made you kneel." ”

Moon Shadow shook her head and didn't dare.

"Hurry up, I still have a lot to ask you." Today he really ran out of patience.

After Moon Shadow got up, she thought he was going to ask something important about Zhou Yifeng, but she didn't want him to ask, "After I left, what did she do in Shangdu every day?" ”

She was stunned for a long time before wiping her eyes

Tears, everything was said.

Xiao Yizheng's cold face occasionally showed a warm smile, or he shook his head helplessly but with a doting look.

"She's suffered a lot along the way, hasn't she?" He asked again.

"Although the princess often says that she wants to see all the scenery in the world, she actually often goes out to play in Sujiang, and she has never gone far after entering Shangdu. On this long journey, day and night, her face was cracked by the wind and sand, and there were several cracks on her forehead and cheeks. Riding a horse all day, the delicate and tender hands, the palms are blistered, scabbed, broken and scabbed. It's cold in the north, what if those hands have chilblains? Also, her legs have been worn out from a large piece of skin because of riding a horse, and they have not been in good condition. As she spoke, sorrow came from it, and she couldn't stop crying.

Xiao Yizheng listened to these words, and his heart trembled as if he was being pulled together by a pair of invisible hands, and he was uncomfortable and painful. He wanted to roar and get angry, but he didn't know who to turn to. After taking a few deep breaths, she looked at Moon Shadow carefully, and in fact, there were traces left by the wind and sand on her face. His throat clenched, and the letter in his hand was already clenched into a ball.

"Why come?" He spoke hoarsely, but he didn't ask Moon Shadow again.

Why are you always so bold? Why can't you wait for yourself in the palace with peace of mind? Why can't you be a princess Heng who is only responsible for making flowers and grass and not eating fireworks in the world?

But she always acts like this, disregarding her own safety, but always for herself.

"It's my fault." His hoarse and dry voice was full of bitterness and regret.

"You go out, I want to be alone." He whispered again.

Moon Shadow sobbed, but still didn't forget to plead: "Your Highness, you can't let the princess have an accident......"

"She's going to be fine!" He raised his eyes firmly: "No one can hurt her!" After a pause, he said word by word: "I, I will never let her have an accident." ”

After Moon Shadow withdrew, the candles flickered inside the house, and the wind was loud outside.

He slowly raised his hand, flattened the letterhead he had been holding in his hand, and frowned slightly, regretting how he had tried so hard to rub the words she had written to himself into such a shape. So, I carefully kneaded the four corners of the letterhead and gently brushed it word by word. It was her handwriting, Liu Fengxingshu, like Liu Fengxing's handwriting with her mother's handwriting.

Heng, you've only written me three letters. One was a heart-wrenching sentence telling me that you had let other girls live in the palace. A letter came without a word. This letter has only the responsibility of the world.

He read the letter again.

Chengzhan:

Zhan Xinyue.

At this point, I may have been leveled.

Don't be angry, you're still hurt.

You'll find out the details soon. I only briefly explained, I asked Xie Zhi to check the general situation of Zhou Yifeng, which was consistent with what he said. More importantly, he has in his hands the royal tokens of the Guiping Kingdom and important objects that can stabilize the domestic situation in Guiping.

Even with all this, it is not possible to let him go back alone. If there is Dacheng to help, there are three benefits: first, because it stands behind Dacheng, it can better convince the public. Second, to make Guiping completely defect to Danta, it can form a two-sided attack on Danda with the current Northwest Army. I know that you have done a lot of things in Guiping before, and it has already worked, but someone needs to consolidate this effect. I also know that the Northwest Army is fully capable of defeating the Danda Army, but it is always better to have more forces to help. Danda must not be allowed to retreat to peace, wait for a respite, and fight again in the spring of next year, which will cost people and material resources. Third, if Zhou Yifeng can be reconciled because of our mutual help, then the relationship between Reconciliation and Dacheng will be more unbreakable in the future, which is beneficial for the future.

Dacheng needs someone with a high level to make this trip. But now that you are injured, you have to be the main Northwest Army, because the senior generals of the Northwest Army cannot leave easily, and it will be too late to send someone to the imperial court. Since I'm here in Beisu, then I'm the best choice right now.

I remember on my wedding day, you told me that as long as I am Princess Heng for one day, I must have the ability to protect myself. Knowing the beauty in front of you can also solve the troubles behind you.

As the Heng princess of Dacheng, I am also the same as you, and I have my due duty.

I promise you: I will spare my life and return to you unharmed.

Promise me: don't worry, don't worry, take care of your injuries, and wait for me to go back.

Ah Heng

He read it carefully, gently helped the word "Ah Heng" again, and muttered: "What you promised must be completed, otherwise I will not forgive you and I will not forgive myself." ”

When the first rays of the morning sun poured down through the clouds, the snow that had fallen overnight also stopped.

Xiao Yizheng pushed open the door, took a breath of fresh air, and strode into the conference hall. He must end the war in Beisu as soon as possible, and as in the southwest, this time he must not fail Qingxi's adventure, and he must do his best to ensure her safety and complete his common duty.

The generals in the council hall were already lined up and ready to stand. There was such a fuss last night, and everyone was nervous, and they didn't sleep all night.

They looked at His Royal Highness King Heng, although his face was not good, and his stubble was full of stubble, but in the end, he still had the calm atmosphere of the emperor's nobles, and knew that although he was worried about the princess, he didn't do anything stupid after all.

Zeng Ji led everyone to make a one-day deployment.

At the end, Xiao Yizheng slowly spoke, roughly explained Qingxi's intention to go to Beisu, and then said seriously: "The matter of the princess must not be spread outside. Contact the secret agents of all parties to exchange information, and once they get the news of peace, they will immediately start a war and sweep away Danda. ”

At this moment, Qingxi, who is already in Guiping China, is changing into the only set of women's clothes that Beisu brought on this trip, which is a white embroidered wide-sleeved and cotton skirt. She raised her hand and brushed the outermost layer of veil, although it was plain, but the gold wire edging, the needle craftsmanship of Su embroidery showed the style, and lightly held up the magnolia jade pendant that fell in her heart that was not crystal clear and the workmanship was not exquisite, and smiled slightly, "What a beautiful jade!" This is both against the heart and from the heart. She held the jade deeply, unwilling to let go for a long time. Today, he will take it, with his heart, and make a decision.
