Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Soldiers Are Divided into Two Paths
"Your Highness, this is not a long-term place, we must leave as soon as possible." Zheng Chengdao, "That group of people should still be searching the temple for a while, let's take this opportunity to go, the probability of being found is not high." ”
Rong Zhao nodded, and Gu Yusheng also got dressed and stood up, but he stumbled and crashed into the man's arms, and was held by Rong Zhao.
The little girl bent the corners of her mouth in embarrassment, stood up from Rong Zhao's arms, and explained: "I'm fine, maybe I got up too violently just now." It's okay now, let's go. ”
Rong Zhao frowned and stood still without moving.
Zheng Cheng and Gu Yusheng looked back at Rong Zhao one after another, and Gu Yusheng asked, "Ah Zhao?" What's the matter, let's go. ”
Rong Zhao's eyes were gloomy, and he whispered to Zheng Cheng, "Commander Zheng, can you tell how many people there are?" ”
Zheng Cheng was silent for a while, and after careful identification, he said: "The minister can't hear clearly now, they seem to have gone far, but according to the judgment of the minister just now, there should be about ten people, only a lot more." ”
Rong Zhao was silent and didn't reply, Gu Yusheng thought he was scared, so he went to pull the corner of his clothes.
Rong Zhao looked up at the pale little girl in front of him, the little girl was smiling brightly at him, and her beautiful voice was in her ears: "Ah Zhao, don't be afraid, I will protect you, no one can bully you." If we don't leave, it's too late. ”
Rong Zhao really can't understand what this little girl has in her head, obviously she is also a shrewd person, and other people's affairs can always be pointed out to her mouth, and she will tell you to make it clear in a few words. But if she is replaced by herself, she is always afraid of people bullying him, but he is a man, and now he is still bearing the name of the Second Highness, no matter how bad it is, she can't let a little girl protect him.
Why didn't she realize it, she was already injured, and she was still so badly injured, but she still threatened to protect him.
Silly bunny. Stupid to home.
Rong Zhao said decisively: "You don't leave." ”
Gu Yusheng was a little puzzled, but he still persuaded: "We have to go, this temple is not big, they will find it sooner or later, two fists are hard to beat with four hands, and Commander Zheng and I can't protect you." Lake City is not far away, we will be there soon, and we will be safe when the time comes. ”
Rong Zhao looked at her and said with a smile: "Well, let's go, but, it's not us, it's me." ”
"Your Highness." Zheng Cheng exclaimed in a low voice.
Gu Yusheng frowned, and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?" What is called only you! ”
Rong Zhao held her shoulders and said, "Ah Sheng, the goal of this group of people is me, and it has nothing to do with you. You and Zheng Cheng find a place to hide, and I'll go and lure them away. Let's split up and move the rescuers, okay? ”
Gu Yusheng ignored the wound on his back, and hurriedly used his strength to drag Rong Zhao outside, and shouted in a low voice while dragging: "What kind of breaking method are you, impossible, I don't agree!" Let you lead them away alone, will you be able to fight, will you be able to fight? Do you know that if you are caught up, you will die, this is not a rescuer, this is a sheep into the tiger's mouth! ”
Rong Zhao said: "Ah Sheng, it's still not close to Lake City, even if we go together, what if it alarms them, there is no broken temple for us to hide." Instead of dying together, it's better for you to move the rescuers, and I'll wait for you to save me, okay. ”
Gu Yusheng's eyes were red, and he couldn't stop shaking his head: "It's not good!" Not good! Not good! ”
Three bad things in a row made Rong Zhao's heart completely soften, and this stupid rabbit cried like this for him again.
Rong Zhao looked at Zheng Cheng: "I still have to trouble Commander Zheng to protect Ah Sheng." ”
Zheng Cheng knelt down on one knee and filled his fist with Chaorong Zhao: "The duty of the minister is to protect the safety of the Second Highness, and other people's are not within the scope of the minister's responsibility, and the minister cannot do it." ”
Rong Zhao pressed a big palm on Zheng Cheng's shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Zheng Cheng, this is the order of this palace, it is the decree of Yi. Do you still want to resist the decree? ”
Gu Yusheng cried and shouted: "Then I will resist the order and disobey it, and you will deal with me if you have the ability!" ”
"Ah Sheng, you are obedient." Rong Zhao wiped away the tears on Gu Yusheng's face, and persuaded bitterly: "The probability of three people living together is far less than acting separately, I am not willful, I made a decision after careful consideration." ”
Gu Yusheng said again: "Then you and Commander Zheng together, the two of you can always take care of each other." I hid myself, they couldn't find me, I wasn't in danger. You take Commander Zheng with you... Ah Zhao..."
"No, you're injured, and Zheng Cheng stays too."
"I'm fine, it doesn't hurt anymore, and the bleeding has stopped."
"What if you are left alone and the rescuers can't be moved? You really let me go to the mouth of the sheep, ask Zheng Cheng to follow you, and after they leave, you will leave quickly. Go in the opposite direction, don't go to Hucheng, go to Yongcheng, Yongcheng is special, there is a Huya Division set up by the official family, and it is much faster than us going to Hucheng. ”
Rong Zhao's words were reasonable, and even Zheng Cheng couldn't find a way to refute them, so he had to bow his head and accept the order.
"I'm leaving."
Gu Yusheng couldn't help but burst into tears, grabbed Rong Zhao's arm and refused to let go.
Rong Zhao touched his head: "Okay, if you don't leave, you won't be able to leave." Be obedient, I'll wait for you to save me, don't make me wait too long. ”
Gu Yusheng let go of his clenched fists and nodded busily, tears already wetting the placket on his chest.
Rong Zhao glanced at Zheng Cheng, and Zheng Cheng pulled up Gu Yusheng, who fell to the ground and lost his mind, and hid behind the Buddha shrine half-supportively. Rong Zhao turned over and got on his horse and walked away.
Gu Yusheng heard Rong Zhao deliberately rein in the horse, the neighing of the horse, and also heard the group of people shouting: "Over there, chase quickly!" ”
And she could only hide in the corner left by Rong Zhao and cover her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound.
Zheng Cheng looked at the little girl's crying face, and whispered comfortingly: "Fifth girl, let's hide for a while to make sure they are clean, and then we will go to move the rescuers." ”
"Your Highness... Ah, he's going to be fine, right? Gu Yusheng's eyes were red, as if he was longing for a reassuring answer.
Zheng Cheng had no choice but to nod: "Your Highness has superb riding skills, you will never let them catch up easily, we move faster, we must be in time, Your Highness will be fine." ”
Gu Yusheng nodded and said, "Then let's leave now, I don't have anything to do, we'll do it now..."
Zheng Cheng dragged the little girl down and lowered her body. Not far away, footsteps could be heard again. Gu Yusheng was so shocked that he even forgot to cry.
Zheng Cheng cautiously groped left and right on the Buddhist shrine, and after finding a bulge, he opened a small door, first stuffed Gu Yusheng in, and then got into it himself.
The action was so fast that the little girl hadn't even reacted.
Gu Yusheng came back to his senses and asked, "How did Commander Zheng know that there was a door here?" ”
"Usually temples do this, pretending to be gods and ghosts, and accepting ignorant believers."
Zheng Cheng made a silent gesture towards Gu Yusheng, and then Gu Yusheng heard footsteps.
It was a man's voice: "There is still a horse here, and there are people hiding here, continue to search!" ”
"Are these people loaches, it's really hard to catch."
"What so much nonsense, hurry up and arrest the person and go back to your life."
The two men searched back and forth in the temple several times, but they couldn't find anyone.
One of them said: "In such a small place, why can't you find anyone?" “
The other said: "Maybe he abandoned his horse and fled, so let's chase the important one first." The remaining two, if it's not a bad thing, it doesn't matter if you kill it or not. Walk. ”
The hall finally quieted down, and the two people came out of the door, Gu Yusheng collapsed on the ground again in shock, raised his head and asked, "What kind of person is so persistent in taking Rong Zhao's life." ”
"His Royal Highness has offended many officials in recent years, and he has also peeked into a lot of secrets, and his interests are at the forefront, and those people are trying their best to get rid of His Highness, and there have been more assassinations in private in recent years than can be counted." Zheng Chengdao, "But this time, it seems to be a dead man, who it is, it's hard to say." ”
"We are getting closer and closer to the Imperial City, could it be that there is someone in the Imperial City who wants to harm Ah Zhao."
Zheng Cheng shook his head: "I'm a courtier, it's not good to guess too much, it's best for the fifth girl to protect herself first." ”
"But..."
Zheng Cheng said earnestly: "I can say that I watched His Highness grow up, and naturally I am also worried about him. However, if we strike indiscriminately without all preparations, it is not certain whether we will strike first or surprise the snake. ”
Gu Yusheng nodded
Zheng Chengdao: "Let's hide for a while and leave." ”
"Hmm."
