Chapter 18: The Hunt

In a palace, the mahogany doors are carved with intricate and elegant patterns, and there is a delicate and graceful temperament everywhere, and when the door is gently pushed open, a delicate triangular table is greeted by a fine brocade, a set of delicate tea sets waiting quietly, and a screen follows the room in half.

Beyond the screen is a gauze curtain, a gust of breeze blows, the curtain in the room gently drags up, the cyan gauze curtain ripples with the wind, brake blue marks stand in this ten-meter-high building, such as a faint sandalwood incense filled beside him, hollow carved windows into the speckled sunlight.

In the northeast corner of the wall, there is a purple bookcase, the warm sunlight penetrates through the vermilion carved wooden window, scattered on a supported guqin, the incense burner rises from the bursts of cigarettes, the bronze mirror is placed on the wooden dresser, and the room is so fresh and leisurely.

A beautiful woman with skin and snow and amorous eyes is talking and laughing with a few little maids, looking very good, this is the most favored concubine of the king today, Concubine Qing, and the mother of the eldest prince. At this time, a small chamberlain asked to see him. After coming in, Concubine Qing waved her hand and let the rest of the maids go down. Only the big girl Green Bead was left present.

The beauty put away her smiling eyebrows, "Say, what's the matter!" The little chamberlain was dazzled by the smile just now, and only then did he come back to his senses.

"Back to Niangniang, I heard from your father-in-law that the second prince fled, and the queen Niangniang sent people away with Imperial Doctor Long last night. Now that the Imperial Physician Long has been removed, the king is sending people to search the Dragon Mansion, and the queen has been grounded in the palace by the king. ”

"What, how dare they, I underestimated Jiang Ying, a woman, how could I not see that she was so bold before? Why is this little bastard's life so big, I won't let him get in Yun'er's way. You go and tell the national teacher......"

When Mrs. Long went home after praying for blessings, she heard the next person tell her that Long Hua was carried back to the palace, and she knew that this matter was exposed, so she ran to the bedroom with a roar.

Long Hua had already woken up from his coma. When Mrs. Long saw that her husband was lying on the bed, she burst into tears in distress. Seeing this, Long Hua comforted, "Madam, it's just that the official has been dismissed." Don't worry, don't you often say that I can't accompany you as a doctor, now it's okay. We can go around and take a look, did the second prince and Qing'er send them away?

Mrs. Long wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and replied, "Master, don't worry, the manpower was found by the queen herself." Twenty or thirty of them, still dressed as caravans. It's just that we are pitiful and Qing'er is going to suffer."

"Woman's kindness, now that this is the case, I hope the two children can be safe."

Long Qing and Ling Yuanchen followed a group of guards away. Dressed up as a caravan. The group walked smoothly for three days, and on this day, the group passed through a small forest. Not far away there was a big river that didn't know where it led, so the leader prepared to rest here before walking.

When a group of people sat down to eat some dry food, a group of people jumped out from around the woods, all dressed in black and black-faced, with swords in their hands.

The leader knew that something was wrong when he saw the situation. The person who came didn't say a word and went directly to Ling Yuanchen and Long Qing. The leader knew that this group of people must have been found by Concubine Qing to assassinate the second prince. A group of people gathered the two in the middle.

After a while, there were casualties on both sides. The person on the other side began to flare, and the leader of the little guard knew that the other party was looking for help. "Little five, little six, little seven, little eight, you take the second prince and the son with you. Be sure to get them out of here safely. ”

Ling Yuanchen and Long Qing were carried away on horseback, and not long after the six of them rode away, a group of black-clothed people came out from the front. Seeing that the situation was not good, the guards gave Long Qing and Ling Yuanchen a dagger and dry food.

"Two masters, you can only rely on yourselves. Long Qing, you must protect the second prince. Run behind you and hide so that they don't find you. ”

Long Qing and Ling Yuanchen watched as the four guards fought with a large group of people. Knowing that this group of people must be coming for them. Ling Yuanchen pulled Long Qing and ran back, and the man in black saw Ling Yuanchen running away, and wanted to deal with the four guards more quickly.

By the time Ling Yuanchen and Long Qing ran to the river, there were already several black-clothed people chasing after them, and the two of them were still standing by the river in a daze, watching the black-clothed men running towards them step by step with their swords.

Ling Yuchen said to Long Qing, "If we don't die this time, then we are friends of life and death, do you believe me or not?" ”

Long Qing knew what Ling Yuanchen meant when he heard this, looked at the turbulent river behind him and then looked at the black-clothed man chasing in front, Long Qing nodded, and the two jumped into the river hand in hand.

When Ling Yuanchen woke up, he didn't know what day it was, and he couldn't care about his hungry and groggy body. Barely crawled up.

He wants to find his friend, he wants to find Long Qing, in order to rescue him, Imperial Doctor Long contradicted his father, and now I don't know what the situation is, he can't lose Imperial Doctor Long's son.

Ling Yuanchen found Long Qing in a small ravine a few hundred meters away. Holding back the discomfort, he ran over and tried Long Qing's snort, and when his hand felt the warmth spurting from his nose, Ling Yuanchen also relieved himself. Now he is tired and hungry, and it has taken him most of his strength to find Long Qing. I could only lie on the ground weakly.

Long Qing also woke up soon after, and saw Ling Yuanchen also lying beside him. I was relieved. "Where are we going now?"

Ling Yunchen said, "Now the Northern Plains Kingdom is estimated to be unable to stay, so we can only go to the Qi Kingdom to have a look." Long Qing asked again: "How can we go so young?" And I'm so hungry."

Ling Yuanchen brought the unknown wild fruit he found nearby to Long Qing to eat, and Long Qing pouted disdainfully. "How do you eat this?"

Ling Yuanchen really didn't understand, he didn't dislike the prince, how could the son of a doctor have so many things. But for the sake of the two being friends of life and death, I had to say, "This is something I finally found, and I will soon be able to reach the Qi Kingdom here." We can get there after walking for more than ten days.

If we stay in the Northern Plains, my father and Concubine Qing will definitely not let us go, so let's go to Qi Kingdom, let them think that we are dead, and wait until Qi Kingdom is trying to find a way to send news to the Queen Mother and Imperial Doctor Long."

Long Qing was helpless and took out a wild fruit to eat. It's sour and astringent, and you still have to eat it in order to survive. The two rested for a while, and felt that they had regained some strength, so they walked in the direction of Qi Guo.
