Chapter 57: Life and Death Are Unclear
On the second day, Mu Sheng got up, to be precise, she didn't sleep all night, after she packed up, she went to the outskirts of Dongchuan City, but she still didn't know that Yan Qinghan and the others were going to return to Wanchao today.
And in front of the gate of Dongchuan City, Yan Qinghan, Qi Guang and others were also ready to return to the Wan Dynasty.
Du Qianzhi knew that Yan Qinghan and they were leaving today, so he also rushed from the palace.
"Your Majesty, I was afraid that my father would know about General Gu's injury, so I didn't tell him that you left today, and I hope you won't be surprised."
"You are delicate, how can I blame."
"General Gu, please leave it to you and Jiang Gongzi." Yan Qinghan said and looked at Jiang Lingzhou.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, when General Gu wakes up, I'm almost leaving."
"The emperor takes care all the way." Jiang Lingzhou said, his eyes were full of worry, after all, the road was bumpy, Yan Qinghan still had injuries on his body, and he didn't want anyone to say it, so it was inevitable that Jiang Lingzhou would not worry about him.
"What about Lu Yan?" Lu Yan did not appear in Yan Qinghan's sight, he turned his head and asked Qi Guang behind him.
"Already brought out of the barracks." Qi Guang replied.
"Bring him to me, and I'll confirm it myself." Yan Qinghan said again.
"Bring Lu Yan here." Qi Guang ordered the rear troops, and Lu Yan was escorted over by two soldiers.
When Yan Qinghan turned to look at Lu Yan, he gave Qi Guang a look, Qi Guang immediately understood, and after the soldiers brought Lu Yan up, Qi Guang signaled for them to retreat.
Yan Qinghan approached Lu Yan, "Your Majesty, this person has bad intentions...."Jiang Lingzhou reminded on the side, Yan Qinghan raised his hand to signal, Jiang Lingzhou didn't say any more.
"General Lu, you are about to return to the Wan Dynasty, have you figured out how to explain to the queen mother?" Yan Qinghan said coldly to Lu Yan.
The corners of Lu Yan's mouth raised a touch of cunning, and then the tied hand behind him broke free from the rope at some point, and a dagger was against Yan Qinghan's neck.
Everyone was suddenly shocked and nervous, and the most worried among them was Jiang Lingzhou, if Yan Qinghan was usually good enough to deal with him, but now the wounds on Yan Qinghan's body have not healed, and now if he fights with him, I am afraid that it will be more troublesome.
Lu Yan took the opportunity to strangle Yan Qinghan's neck with his arm, and the short dagger was at his throat, and there were already obvious blood marks between Yan Qinghan's throat.
"Lu Yan, are you crazy, let go of the emperor!" Qi Guang shouted at Lu Yan.
"Hahaha, crazy? If I just go back with you, I'll be crazy! Lu Yan smiled cruelly.
"Make way for me, I'm going to get out of the city!" Then, Lu Yan yelled at everyone.
And Jiang Lingzhou wanted to make a move, but was stopped by Qi Guang, "What are you doing!?" Jiang Lingzhou frowned and looked at him.
"There are too many people here, if there is a war, it will definitely hurt the emperor, let him go out of the city and solve it outside the city." Qi Guang said in a deep voice, Jiang Lingzhou will understand, Yan Qinghan still has injuries on his body, if the scene is disrupted, what Qi Guang said is indeed right.
"Make way for him." Qi Guang shouted at the soldiers in front of the two.
After the soldiers listened to the order, they quickly gave way to him, and Lu Yan took Yan Qinghan and walked forward step by step until he exited the city gate.
"Gongzi Jiang, the emperor!" Du Qianzhi was also very worried.
"Princess, you go back to the palace first, and quickly inform the king of Dongchuan, and Lord Qi and I will take the first step to save the emperor." Jiang Lingzhou instructed.
"Okay, I'll go back and tell my father." After that, Du Qianzhi quickly left and returned to the palace.
Lu Yan took Yan Qinghan and everyone out of a distance, just when Qi Guang and Jiang Lingzhou were about to rush forward, Lu Yan didn't know when to stretch out his hand, and everyone was so smoked that they couldn't open their eyes, and when they came to consciousness, the two people in front of them had disappeared.
"Yes, it's cartilage powder..."Qi Guang found that they couldn't use their strength anymore, and when the powder dispersed, they couldn't move even if they wanted to chase after it.
Lu Yan coerced Yan Qinghan and went straight to the outskirts of Dongchuan City, Yan Qinghan was dragged by him all the way, the wound in his abdomen had been cracked, and he could feel that his clothes had been wet with blood.
When he was about to reach the outskirts of the city, Lu Yan stopped, he seemed to sense that something was wrong with Yan Qinghan, the blood fell down his robe drop by drop, Lu Yan saw the blood on the ground all the way, and showed a more smug expression.
"Yan Qinghan, it turns out that you are injured? I said, how can you not even resist! β
"Why do you think I didn't resist, do you really think that I can't deal with you if I'm injured?" A sneer rose at the corner of Yan Qinghan's mouth.
Seeing his expression, Lu Yan wrinkled his eyebrows, "What do you mean?" β
"I can keep you until now, but I just want to use you to play a play with me, and now your time of death is here!" Yan Qinghan was about to rush towards Lu Yan after saying that, but now he found out that he had also been hit by cartilage powder just now, but why was Lu Yan okay?
"Fortunately, I was prepared, if I hadn't kept a packet of cartilage powder, I'm afraid I'd really be your knife ghost now, haha." Lu Yan looked at Yan Qinghan's inability to resist, and his heart was happy.
"The Queen Mother has sent someone to send me a message, let me solve you here, and someone will pick me up on the outskirts of the city at that time, Yan Qinghan, it's not that my death has arrived, but yours has arrived! you! Before the words fell, Lu Yan stabbed Yan Qinghan with a dagger, Yan Qinghan dodged to the side hard, although he was not stabbed by Lu Yan, but the old wound that cut his shoulder, Yan Qinghan frowned slightly, and then looked at Lu Yan.
"It's all dying, do you still think you're the emperor who is admired by all people? Oh no, you've been just a piece of rubbish that your aunt has been propping up all along! β
Lu Yan's words angered Yan Qinghan a little bit, although Yan Qinghan couldn't use his strength, but he was strong inside, his skills were profound, and he could still resist by force, he rushed to Lu Yan and fought with Lu Yan.
But the injuries on his body were always an obstacle, and coupled with his forced support, he was quickly defeated.
Just as Lu Yan rushed towards him again, at the last moment, a long sword shining with silver light pierced his body, Lu Yan's body shook, and then fell forward, and the person who appeared behind him was something Yan Qinghan never expected.
"Ruosheng ......" Yan Qinghan called softly, and then, he lost consciousness, and the moment he fell, he only felt that he was completely relaxed.
At that moment, he seemed to hear it, Ruosheng called him again, "Yan Qinghanβ" And he did not hear it wrong, the moment he saw him fall, Mu Sheng's heart throbbed. 877 Good Books Network
She rushed to Yan Qinghan's side, the wounds on his body were still spilling blood, and it was only then that she knew that her sword was so deep, but that day he returned to Dongchuan by himself.
"Yan Qinghan, Yan Qinghan!" Mu Sheng kept calling him, but he never woke up.
Later, when Qi Guang and Jiang Lingzhou arrived, they only saw Lu Yan's body and the blood that fell all the way, but Yan Qinghan's figure was not seen.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Akan, Akan! Jiang Lingzhou kept shouting loudly and looking around, but he didn't respond at all, and he didn't find it.
"Qi Guang, do you know that your master is still injured! I knew it would be like this, so I might as well stop Lu Yan directly at the city gate just now! Hearing Jiang Lingzhou's words, Qi Guang's heart hesitated, his master was injured, but he didn't tell himself.
"Gongzi Jiang, is the emperor injured? When did the injury occur and was it serious? β
"Just the day before you arrived, it was serious, it was very serious, it seems that he didn't even say anything to you." Jiang Lingzhou's eyebrows were tightly locked, which showed that he was not exaggerating.
Qi Guang looked at the blood that fell all the way, and his heart instantly hung up, if he was not mistaken, there was a chance that this blood belonged to his master, but now there was no trace of him found here, indicating that he had left, since he left, he must still be alive, Qi Guang comforted himself like this.
And at this time, Jiang Lingzhou looked at Qi Guang's reaction and understood seven or eight points.
"Tell me, are you hiding something from me?" He questioned Qi Guang.
Qi Guang was upright and simple by nature, and when Jiang Lingzhou asked him like this, his expression was evasive.
"It seems that it is, did you go out of the palace to investigate Concubine Li, how did he explain it to you, say!"
"The emperor said that it can't be revealed to anyone, including you, Gongzi Jiang."
Jiang Lingzhou had an epiphany, it turned out that it was not that he didn't have time to tell himself the purpose of his exit from the palace, but that he never planned to tell him.
After Du Qianzhi returned to the palace to inform the king of Dongchuan, the king of Dongchuan immediately sent soldiers and horses out of the city to find it, and everyone searched for two days and two nights in the suburbs of Dongchuan City, but still no trace of Yan Qinghan was found.
Now, Lu Yan is dead, Yan Qinghan's life and death are uncertain, and his whereabouts are unknown, and the troops of the Wan Dynasty can only return to the Wan Dynasty under the leadership of Qi Guang.
Jiang Lingzhou didn't wait for Gu Feng to wake up before leaving, not long after Qi Guang left, he entered the palace to say goodbye to Du Qianzhi and King Dongchuan, and then returned with the dark soldiers.
Just after everyone left, Chen Yi, who had arrived from Qingxiao, had just arrived in Dongchuan.
He walked on the long street in Dongchuan City, which was already prosperous, and he remembered that the last time he came, it was still lonely.
As he was walking, a familiar face came into his eyes not far away, and when he got closer, it was Du Qianzhi, the eldest princess of Dongchuan, and Du Qianzhi also saw him not far away, and he was very happy.
"Prince Chenyi, why are you here?"
"I heard that Dongchuan was in trouble, so I rushed here, but now it seems that it is too late."
"Thanks to the help of noble people, Dongchuan has escaped."
"Noble?"
"The Emperor of the Wan Dynasty also has a prince of the Jiang family, and the prince of Chenyi may not know about this person."
It seems that what Xiaoyi said is right, Yan Qinghan really sent Jiang Lingzhou to bring the secret soldiers over, how could he not know, they are very familiar.
"Eldest princess, where are you going?" Seeing that the maid beside Du Qianzhi didn't bring much, and she still had these ingredients in her hand, Chen Yi asked.
"General Gu was injured some time ago, and he only woke up in recent days, and I was about to go to the General's Mansion to see him."
"Brother Gu, are you injured?" Chen Yi asked with a twist of his eyebrows.
Du Qianzhi saw Chen Yi's worries, and said casually: "Why don't you join Chen Yi Gongzi with me?" Presumably Brother Gu Feng will be a lot happier to see you. β
Chen Yi nodded, and the two went to the General's Mansion together.
When he arrived at the General's Mansion, Gu Feng had already gotten out of bed and was pacing in the courtyard.
"Brother Gu Feng, your injuries are only healed, why did you get out of bed?" Seeing this, Du Qianzhi hurriedly stepped forward and entangled him, and said angrily.
"Eldest princess, a little injury, it's fine." As he was talking, he saw Chen Yi following behind Du Qianzhi in a blink of an eye, with a happy face.
"Brother Chenyi!"
"Brother Gu, I haven't seen you for a long time, how can I be injured?"
Gu Feng didn't say how he was injured since he woke up, he just found a reason to fool the past, in fact, Du Qianzhi knew in his heart that he just didn't want to say it, since he didn't say it, then she wouldn't ask, as long as she was safe and sound now.
"It's just a minor wound on the battlefield, it's okay."
"That's not to be taken lightly, it's better to keep it well." Chen Yi advised.
Afterwards, several people entered the main hall together, and later, with Gu Feng's stay, Chen Yi stayed in Gu Feng's mansion for a few days.
During this period, he more or less knew about the changes that happened here, after Dongchuan escaped, the emperor of the Wan Dynasty was coerced by the general and disappeared, I don't know whether he is dead or alive, and he also looked for Mu Sheng everywhere in Dongchuan, and he didn't find Mu Sheng's figure, and he didn't know where Mu Sheng went.
When the situation was almost investigated, he found a reason to return to Qingxiao.
What puzzled Chen Yi was that with the disappearance of Yan Qinghan, why Mu Sheng would also disappear, the only thing he could figure out was that the two of them disappeared together, and he had no way of knowing what happened in this.
Now he can only wait for him to return to Qingxiao and inform Xiaoyi before making a decision, and this time, he can also guess that there is probably going to be a big change in the palace, Yan Qinghan and Mu Sheng's sudden change will undoubtedly make him and Xiaoyi's revenge plan stagnant.
