Chapter 171: Something Happened at the Border Pass

After all, there was such an unlucky thing at the banquet that received the wind, and the fact that the emperor wanted to choose a husband for Sun Qi was temporarily shelved, which was exactly what Sun Qi wanted.

It's just that a few days later, news came from the border pass, saying that Sun Yu and Zhao Mingsheng were ambushed by the enemy when they led the troops to fight, Zhao Mingsheng and Sun Yu took two teams of men and horses to chase, but they didn't come back until late that night, and then the deputy general in the army took someone to look for it, saying that they found the wreckage of our soldiers outside the hinterland of the enemy.

But after counting the human tree, he found that there was no trace of Zhao Mingsheng and Sun Yu, and after looking for several days, there was still no news of them.

When he knew the news, Yun Yan was sitting at the table and eating with Yun Daoxu, and the people under Yun Daoxu had always been well-informed, and they passed the news almost at the same time as the emperor learned of the battle report.

Yunyan dropped a pair of chopsticks at the moment: "You say it again!" What happened to Zhao Mingsheng?! ”

The little guy who reported the news was stunned, glanced at Yundao Ruin, and saw that Yundao Rui signaled him to rest assured, and then replied: "Gongzi Zhao and His Royal Highness the Third Prince are missing. ”

Yunyan sat down on the chair almost all at once, but fortunately the chair had a backrest, which held her up all of a sudden, and after a long time, she asked in a trembling voice, "How long have you been missing?" ”

"Counting the time when the news came back, it should have been four or five days by now." After the little guy finished speaking, Yun Daoxu let him retreat.

Yunyan was silent, her eyes lost their look, and she muttered, "How is it possible?" No, it won't. ”

Yun Daoxu waved his hand, and the little guy who came to report the news retreated, he slowly got up, walked to Yun Yan's side and sat down: "Girl, what are you going to do?" ”

Yun Yan hadn't calmed down yet, when Yun Daoxu was talking to her, Yun Yan still looked lost and depressed, and Yun Daoxu repeated his words twice before Yun Yan came back to his senses.

"I'm going to find him." Yunyan slowly stood up, she looked at Yundao Ruins: "Yunyan has a reluctant request, and I ask my uncle to fulfill it!" She said, not intending to give Yun Daoxu a chance to refute at all, so she bowed directly: "Naturally, if my uncle feels that it is inconvenient to send someone to follow, then Yunyan will go alone." ”

In short, the establishment of the Dao Ruins Sect is to protect Yunyan, and now if Yunyan is allowed to go alone, it will make the Yundao Ruins real.

Even if he was very reluctant to Yunyan to find Zhao Mingsheng, but now that she has such an attitude, Yun Daoxu has to agree: "Since you have made up your mind, let me prepare over there, when do you plan to leave?" ”

"Thank you, uncle!" Yunyan's expression was indifferent, as if the girl who was grieving and distraught before was not her: "Naturally, the sooner the better." ”

Yun Daoxu frowned: "Then let's set off the day after tomorrow, you should also prepare well, after all, the journey to the border pass is hard." ”

"Uncle Xie mentions!" Yunyan thanked her again and again, and then turned around and walked towards her own yard, Yun Daoxu said well, the way to the border pass is long, and the hard work can be imagined, not to mention that she has now made up her mind, no matter what, she must travel day and night, and strive to reach the border pass as soon as possible.

Looking at Yun Yan's back, Yun Daoxu only frowned, this girl is extremely stubborn, and she is the real Yun family's main lineage, even if he wants to, he can't stop it, but this matter, he feels that it happened too suddenly.

Zhao Mingsheng and Sun Yu have always been cautious, how could they do something to pursue the enemy army into the enemy's hinterland? also lost two teams of men and horses, and ended up with a missing result, and I don't want them to do such a thing.

It was Yun Daoxu who felt from the bottom of his heart that Zhao Mingsheng and Sun Yu must be implementing some kind of plan to produce such consequences, and this matter is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface.

It's just that now he can't stop Yunyan, and he feels that if he tells Yunyan his thoughts, with Yunyan's current state of mind, most of them will think that he is saying such things in order to prevent her from going to Zhao Mingsheng.

Yun Daoxu sighed slightly, there are some things, it is better for him not to say.

On the other hand, Sun Ying, who was in the eldest princess's mansion, naturally received the news of Zhao Mingsheng's disappearance at the border pass for the first time, and she almost fainted to the ground at the same time as she heard the news.

When the maid in the eldest princess's mansion helped her to the bed in a panic, and called the imperial doctor to come to diagnose and treat her, she was able to wake up, but the first thing she did when she woke up was to call Sun Qi to her side.

"Qi'er......" Sun Ying grabbed Sun Qi's hand and burst into tears: "Qi'er ellipsis, they said, Mingsheng is missing, what should I do now......"

Sun Qi is naturally also worried about Zhao Mingsheng, since she learned the news of Zhao Mingsheng's disappearance at the border pass, she can be said to have been thinking about it day and night, not thinking about tea and dinner, and she was so anxious that she couldn't sleep well.

Now that Sun Ying has fallen again, she is really a little panicked, but now Sun Ying can't do anything like this, and if she wants to protect Zhao Mingsheng well, she is the only one who will come forward.

"Auntie, don't get excited, the imperial doctor said that you will faint only when you are in a hurry, and now you need to recuperate." Saying that, she frowned: "I will go into the palace to ask my father to see my father about Ming Sheng's matter, and I will definitely ask my father to send more people to find it." ”

When she said this, Sun Ying remembered something: "What about the dark guard? Where's the secret guard in my house?! Fast! Go and let them all go to Mingsheng! ”

Sun Ying said, as if he wanted to sit up with his body, and Sun Qi hurriedly stepped forward to help him when he saw this.

The personal maid heard Sun Ying's call, walked in quickly, saluted Sun Ying, and heard that Sun Ying was going to ask the dark guard to find Zhao Mingsheng, so she quickly got up and went out to find the leader of the dark guard.

Seeing that all these orders were in place, Sun Ying was still unstable in her heart, she grabbed Sun Qi's hand: "Qi'er, you are tired, go back to the palace now, if the emperor wants to send people to the border pass, it will take time to travel, but now Ming Sheng is missing, the situation is unknown, the longer it drags on, the greater the danger of Ming Sheng, it is my aunt begging you, hurry up and enter the palace!" ”

Sun Ying has a high life, she is the eldest princess of a country, the emperor's sister, and her status is respected, only others ask for her share, when she asks for someone, not to mention that she is still a junior.

Sun Qi looked at Sun Ying like this, and her heart was also uncomfortable, she quickly got up: "I'm going to go to the palace, my aunt is resting, don't worry too much." ”

Sun Ying nodded, raised her hand and waved her to hurry up, and then watched Sun Qi leave, and slowly lay down on the bed, but now she can't sleep and rest.

Sun Qi was worried about Zhao Mingsheng in her heart, urging the coachman to drive faster all the way, it was originally going to take two sticks of incense to get to the palace, but now it was a stick of incense, she got out of the carriage and directly took out the princess's waist card and walked straight to the palace gate.

The emperor was originally worried about Sun Yu and the Lighting Monk, and was hesitating whether to send more people to find the two of them, and when he heard Sun Qi asking to see him, he was puzzled, but thinking that Sun Qi was now living in the eldest princess's mansion, he knew her intention, the emperor frowned, looking a little displeased, but still let her in.

Zhao Guifei heard early in the morning that the emperor was worried about Sun Yu and Zhao Mingsheng's affairs, so she prepared ginseng soup to come to see the emperor, and she happened to be by the emperor's side at this time.

Sun Qi walked into the imperial study, saw the dog emperor in reality, and then shifted her eyes to Zhao Guifei who was standing on the side, she was slightly stunned, and secretly screamed in her heart.

Although Zhao Mingsheng is Zhao Guifei's nephew, but now there is also Sun Yu who has an accident with her, this woman has always been ruthless, if she sacrifices a nephew to get rid of Sun Yu together, she will definitely be willing.

"Why are you in such a hurry to see me?" The emperor watched Sun Qi kneel down and salute, a set of etiquette was extremely dignified, and the dissatisfaction in his heart also dissipated somewhat.

"The disappearance of the third prince and Mingsheng has reached the eldest princess's mansion, and my aunt was so frightened that she fainted after hearing about it, and she couldn't cry after waking up. Sun Qi told the truth, revealing in his tone that he cared about Sun Yu and the Lighting Monk.

It's just that before the emperor could respond, he heard Zhao Guifei, who was standing on the side, say softly: "Please also ask the emperor to forgive me, there are two things that the concubine wants to say." She walked to Sun Qi's side, saluted the emperor and then knelt beside Sun Qi: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince and Ming Sheng went to the border to guard the city to design important military affairs, originally the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, and it was not easy for the concubines to intervene in this matter, but His Royal Highness the Third Prince is the child of the emperor, and it can be regarded as the child of the concubine, and the concubine is also anxious about the safety of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, not to mention that Ming Sheng is the nephew of the concubine, and he has been raised by the concubine since he was a child, so this sentiment is naturally not said."

It's just that the matter of guarding the border pass is a major national event, and now the war at the border pass is tight, if the emperor now orders to send people to find the three princes and Ming Sheng, I am afraid that the war at the border pass will not come. ”

After listening to Zhao Guifei's words, the emperor frowned tightly, indeed, now the war at the border is tight, and the news of defeat and retreat is frequently reported from the front line, if you want to transfer people to find Sun Yu and Zhao Mingsheng now, I am afraid that it will affect the battle situation ahead.

Therefore, the emperor was slow to come up with an idea.

Sun Qi has always been observant of words, and when he saw the emperor like this, he knew that he was hesitant, and I am afraid that today's task will not be achieved.

Sure enough, just when she wanted to open her mouth and try again, the emperor, who had been silent for a long time, sighed slightly: "Qi'er, I know that you and Ming Sheng grew up together, and the relationship is better than that of your brother and sister, but now it is related to the country's military and political affairs, and you can't be emotional, you go back first." ”

"Father......" She was about to say something, but the emperor waved her hand to pull back.
