Chapter 338: Promise to help
"If Your Royal Highness doesn't mind, you can come in with me for a cup of tea! Now, I'm going to go in immediately, and my family must be worried. Liu Ruli said.
Dahui nodded, motioning for his retinue to lead the horses aside, and they waited where they were.
Liu Mengyan listened to them talking nonsense, although she couldn't understand it, she could see from the looks of those people that she was definitely worried about Dahui's safety.
Liu Mengyan couldn't wait, so she hugged Da Hui and said, "Your Royal Highness, forgive me for being rude." Let's go in first, and ask the prince to wait a moment. ”
Without waiting for Dahui to react, she turned and went inside.
When she entered the inn, the maid on night saw that she was back, and although she was puzzled and surprised, she was inconvenient to ask more, so she gave her a candlestick and asked her to go back to the room on the third floor.
When she walked up, Qiu Yun and the others, who heard the movement, opened the door to take a look, and found that it was Liu Mengyan, who was surprised and delighted, only to cry around her, and didn't know what to say.
"Your Highness!" Liu Mengyan hurriedly asked.
"Your Highness has led someone to find the master." Qiu Yun stopped her tears.
Really! That man may be leading people to find himself frantically in the border city at this moment!
"Master, the slave maid heard Jinxiu say that His Highness is taking someone to the Devil's City to find you!" Yunmo remembered something and hurriedly said.
After Liu Mengyan glanced at her in surprise, she remembered that the old man who sold the heart stone to them had talked about this place.
"Master, slaves and maidservants are waiting for you to wash. If Your Highness can't find you, you'll come back! Qiu Yun said.
"No, that place is in the desert. Wouldn't it be self-defeating to enter the desert at this time! Liu Mengyan's blood seemed to flow up, and she was so anxious that she wanted to scratch her ears and cheeks, "He, why is he so stupid!" ”
Before the girls could hear her last words, they saw her turn around and go down.
"Master! You can't go out again at this time! Qiu Yun hurriedly chased after her, grabbed Liu Mengyan and said, "What can you do alone, you can only wait for His Highness to come back!" ”
"Qiu Yun, just a few of you stay here. If anyone comes back, they will say that I have gone to the Devil's Town with Prince Dahui. Liu Mengyan turned around and said.
"Huh? Prince Dahui? Qiu Yun was confused, but Liu Mengyan didn't wait for her to react, so she took the candlestick and went down.
How could a few maids rest assured, so they naturally followed Liu Mengyan down.
She didn't care about the decent demeanor of the ladies taught by her mother Zhu on weekdays, and ran out with big strides.
Several maids were shocked by Liu Mengyan's rough steps, and they followed in small steps.
Sure enough, Prince Dahui and his subordinates were still waiting outside and did not leave.
When Liu Mengyan saw them, her heart settled down a lot, she stepped forward and said to him: "Prince Dahui, in fact, I, I am Princess Yi of Da Tuoba. The reason why I recognized His Royal Highness the Prince was because Princess Elilian and Mengyan had told His Royal Highness the Prince's demeanor. ”
Dahui looked at the bright and refreshing woman in front of him, and felt a slight regret in his heart: it turned out that she was already married.
Qiu Yun, Yun Mo and Qian Yu looked at so many people standing outside the inn, and they couldn't figure out when their princess met this prince for a while?
One of the guards beside Prince Dahui, probably a general, stepped forward to talk to him again.
Liu Mengyan doesn't have to think about it, I'm just afraid that people will think of her as a liar!
"Prince Dahui, Princess Elilian just returned to China not long ago, and the one who escorted her back was the Tuoba Peak guard sent by His Royal Highness of my family. If the prince has any doubts about Mengyan's identity, then this is an absolute secret! What only King Yi and Princess Elilian know is enough to prove it, right? Liu Mengyan hurriedly said.
A moment of surprise flashed in Dahui's eyes, and then he said a few nonsense words to the general, apparently convincing his suspicions.
"Let's go! Where is His Royal Highness King Yat? I'm going to see him now. Thanks to him, and, thanks to Princess Yi, for saving Elilian. Elilian had already written to tell me everything she had done in the Great Topha. Dahui made a Uzi salute to Liu Mengyan, and obviously recognized Liu Mengyan's identity.
Liu Mengyan immediately returned the salute and said happily: "Now that His Royal Highness is on his way to Devil's City, he may have already arrived there." Meng Yan begged Prince Dahui to help find him. ”
"Her Royal Highness Princess Yi, please. Without further ado, let's go now! Devil's City is strange and terrifying to you Great Tuoba people, but we are not afraid. Dahui made a move to invite Liu Mengyan to get on the horse, and he was very confident.
Liu Mengyan naturally knew that Dahui was not touting herself, let alone bluffing.
In her previous life, she had seen the bravery and fierceness of the prince of Uzi, and although he was born with courtesy, he was not inferior to the bravest soldiers.
In the previous life, Liu Mengyan helped Tuoba Yeze marry Yi Lilian, and Dahui once pacified the invasion of the Dawan Kingdom and stood together.
"Good. Let's go! Liu Mengyan said excitedly.
"Princess! Slaves and maidservants come with you! Qiu Yun grabbed Liu Mengyan's arm and said.
"You guys stay in the inn!" Liu Mengyan turned to them and said, "Don't worry, I will return safely with His Highness!" ”
The worry in the eyes of several maids dissipated a little, but at this moment they also knew that even if they followed, they could only waste manpower to protect, so they nodded with tears in their eyes.
The princess and her highness have been so good to them. They all plan to follow Liu Ruli for the rest of their lives, so they naturally regard her as more important than their own lives.
Liu Mengyan walked to the side of the horse, turned over and got on the horse, and the movements were done in one go, without dragging mud and water at all.
The crowd tightened their horses and went out into the night.
At night, the desert stopped the manic frenzy of the day, it was not so hot, but it became unusually cold, especially in the middle of the night.
Liu Mengyan and everyone were riding on horses, and the ubiquitous wind carried the sand to her face, beating her painfully.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Yi, here you go!" Dahui somehow put the horse and Liu Mengyan side by side and handed her a veil.
Liu Mengyan was asking for this, and threw a grateful look at him and took the veil.
She reined in her horse and tied the veil to cover most of her face. Then, she continued to ride with them, towards the unknown "Devil's Town".
Suddenly, the tall Western Regions horse stumbled under his feet, and Liu Mengyan was unprepared, threw herself forward and rolled to the ground.
"Princess!"
Dahui was startled, immediately reined in the horse, then jumped down, and struggled to the direction where Liu Mengyan landed.
In such a dark night, if Liu Ruli rolls down to the sea of sand, it will be difficult for an old hunter who is often in the desert to find her.
Fortunately, Liu Mengyan was still lying on the spot and did not roll down.
"How? Hurt no! Da Hui said in a big tuoba and pulled the man up from the sand.
Fortunately, when she fell, she held on to the sand, and her palms were just a little skinned.
Da Hui breathed a long sigh of relief, but he still didn't feel at ease to bandage her palm.
"It's only a little bit of skin, and it's not tight." Liu Mengyan said, hurriedly took the handkerchief out of her arms and wrapped her palm around it, temporarily blocking the erosion of dust.
"Your hand is injured and you can't ride a horse! Sit behind me! Dahui said.
Liu Mengyan knew that what he said was the truth, so she had to nod.
In the wind, the group continued to hurry. Liu Ruli sat behind Da Hui, because the horse speed was not satisfied, she had to hug his waist to avoid falling off the horse again.
The young prince on horseback slowly raised the corners of his mouth with a smile.
At that time, the people Tuoba Zeyan was taking at the moment had not yet arrived in Devil City, and had already circled around two places in one place.
"Your Highness, is this old man playing tricks on us!" Tuoba drove his horse to his side.
"But now there is no other way but to believe in him!" Tuoba Ze said.
He didn't know how Liu Mengyan was now, whether she had entered the Devil's City, and he didn't know if she had been hurt.
"Found it, found it!" The old man suddenly cried out, "Look, the star on the tail of that little bear star in the sky is exposed. Devil's Town should be in the direction it indicates. ”
"Old man, you're right this time! If you lie to us again......" Tuoba Quan said unceremoniously to him.
"Big night, old man, I said before that I can't find a packed ticket...... You can't go wrong this time. The old man muttered.
"I'll trust you one last time! Lead the way! Tuobaze's words were like ice, his eyes were like eagles, and his body was straight, with a trace of undoubted kingly spirit.
The old man was stunned, nodded hurriedly, shouted at the horse, and ran forward.
Tuoba Zeyan lifted the reins in his hand, then jerked the horse's belly and chased after him. He rode his horse to the left and right, and he rode forward.
While riding a horse, he shouted in his heart: Yan'er, wait for me! I'll definitely find you! Yan'er, it's all my fault! Didn't look at you! Yan'er, whoever wants to take you away from me, the Buddha will kill the Buddha, and the god will block and kill the god!
In the previous life, when he arrived in that basement, she had turned into a cold corpse, and no matter what, he couldn't save her.
At that time, he swore that if God gave him another chance, he would never let her slip out of his hands and let anyone hurt her again!
Sure enough, an oasis appeared in front of them, and it should be said that a piece of light appeared in front of them.
"It's here, it's here. That's Devil's Town! The old man reined in his horse and kicked his breath.
Tuoba Zeyan restrained his horse, and the crowd followed him and restrained his horse. The horse craned its neck and let out a breath from its nostrils.
"This is Devil's Town? It's an oasis! Tuoba Quan said in surprise.
Tuoba Quan thought that the Devil's City should be a ruined wall, with dim lights and few people.
But even if they stood on the edge of the oasis, they could still see that the city on the oasis was not like this. Although it was late at night, the lights were flickering everywhere in the town, and it was clear that the people who lived in it had not yet slept.
