Chapter 717: The Pursuers Are Behind

"Your Majesty, your persuasion is really powerful, we originally only had ten brothers who could transport food, but now there are thirty people, and thirty carts of food are enough for our soldiers to consume for several days!"

Sun Yang was very happy to see this situation, and the tone of his voice became excited, Qin Zhao didn't stay too long when he heard this, he got on his horse, ran to the side of the cabin, and brought Guan Tongshu and the two children over, at this time, these people below had already packed the grain, Qin Zhao took a look at this granary was very large, they loaded half of the grain, and the rest was still half.

"Let's go!"

Qin Zhao saw that everyone was ready to give an order, so one person pulled a cart of grain and turned to the side of the path, Qin Zhao looked at these soldiers lined up one by one, looking at the full thirty carts of grain, and finally felt a lot relieved in his heart.

Although these grains are not a lot, they should be no problem after a few days to support the expenses of the troops, and at that time, the native potatoes of Pingnan Country should be transported over.

"Queen, are you okay, look at you being locked up here, you've lost so much weight in the past few days!"

Qin Zhao let Sun Yang and another subordinate hold the two children, mounted the horse and left.

Qin Zhao also took Guan Tongshu on the horse, Qin Zhao only made his face pale because of the pain in his ankle, but he still cared about Guan Tongshu, Guan Tongshu saw this situation and hugged Qin Zhao tightly, the two hugged each other tightly, and Guan Tongshu's body couldn't stop trembling slightly at this time.

It was not easy for them to go through all this, and finally be able to reunite as a family of four.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about the concubines, the concubines these days, although they are locked up here and don't see the light of day, but three meals a day, someone always sends them to the door, and they are not hungry, but the two children haven't seen the emperor for a long time, this time it is estimated that they have suffered a little here, and now the four of us are finally reunited."

Guan Tongshu was very emotional at this time, Qin Zhao also nodded when he heard this, he reached out and gently wiped off the dirt on Guan Tongshu's face with his sleeve, it can be seen that being locked up in this small room, these days have been a gray life, Qin Zhao looked at it in his eyes, and it hurt in his heart.

After Guan Tongshu finished speaking, tears burst out of her eyes, and the gentleness of Qin Zhao's movements made her heart uncontrollable excited.

"It's good if you're okay, these days, I'm worried about your safety, I can't sleep well, now that I see that your mother and son are safe and sound, my heart can be put down, I'm sorry, I came too late to make you suffer here these days!"

Qin Zhao listened to Guan Tongshu's sensible words, and felt even more guilty in his heart, if that day, he did not leave quietly, but took Guan Tongshu with him, maybe he would not let Guan Tongshu go through this ordeal now, he saw that Guan Tongshu still had some small wounds on her cheeks, her hair was messy, where was the precious appearance in the palace on weekdays.

Qin Zhao looked at this scene, his heart was as if he had been cut by a knife, he managed Tongshu his beloved woman, but as the emperor, he was a noble position above ten thousand people, but he couldn't even protect his own woman.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to feel sorry for the concubines anymore, although the concubines have been imprisoned in this house these days, but some eat and sleep, the emperor has been fighting everywhere with soldiers these days, and the concubines are distressed in their hearts, let's set off early, and the time will be delayed later, so that the Queen Mother's troops will come back, but it will be troublesome!"

Guan Tongshu said to Qin Zhao about Qin Zhao, and nodded after listening to it, he slapped the horse's buttocks, and the horse galloped forward, the two sat on the horse, Qin Zhao hugged Guan Tongshu's waist tightly with his hand, feeling the intimate feeling between the two, Guan Tongshu's heart could be regarded as settled. bar

But at this moment, Qin Zhao suddenly noticed that something was wrong, he seemed to hear some movement, and when he looked back, he saw a black head a few hundred meters away in the distance, it turned out that the Queen Mother's troops had come back.

"Your Majesty, it's the Queen Mother's people who are back!"

Guan Tongshu also saw this situation, was shocked, never expected that the Queen Mother's troops would be able to come back so quickly, Qin Zhao looked at this black head, and now saw that at least thousands of people had returned, and although they were still a few hundred meters away, but if they really caught up, I am afraid that these grains would not only be snatched back by them, but even these soldiers below would be surprised.

Qin Zhao frowned tightly, the soldiers transporting food in front of you have already discovered this situation at this time.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother's troops have now been killed, according to this case, we are pushing the cart, but they are riding horses, I believe they will catch up with us soon, what should we do now, why don't we let the soldiers retreat first, and this grain should be returned to them?"

Sun Yang had already discovered that something was wrong at this time, rode a horse beside Qin Zhao, and said to Qin Zhao, Qin Zhao heard this, pursed his lips tightly, and the expression on his face seemed to be thinking, the food of these thirty carts was brought back by their hard work, and the rations of the entire army were almost cut off in the next few days.

If there is no food, how can it survive these few days, and it is estimated that it will take several days for the potatoes in Pingnan to be delivered.

"Yes, what the emperor's Sun Yang guard said makes sense, now it is important to save his life, it seems that we have no way to transport the emperor away from this grain, let's leave first!"

Guan Tongshu was also taken aback at this time and said to Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao looked at Guan Tongshu in front of him, the expression on Guan Tongshu's face was anxious, he knew that Guan Tongshu was worried about his safety.

Qin Zhao looked at the cart of grain, and then saw that the grain was covered with a thick layer of straw, which was usually covered to prevent rain, but now it seemed to come in handy.

Qin Zhao let out a loud shout, and the soldiers in front of him all stopped, with a frightened look on their faces.

"Don't be nervous, unload all these straws from the car and line up here!"

Qin Zhao was very thoughtful at this time, and quickly began to arrange, Guan Tongshu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he already understood in his heart what Qin Zhao was going to do with this operation.

Sun Yang was still puzzled, and after the soldiers below heard this, they were stunned for a moment, and they all did according to Qin Zhao's explanation, unloaded the straw on the board car, and paved a road about twenty or thirty meters long on this small road.

This road was originally a narrow path, one side was a high mountain, and the other side was a cliff, there was only such a small road, Qin Zhao looked back, the Queen Mother's soldiers were getting closer and closer to them, and it was estimated that they would be able to catch up with them in a short time.
