Chapter 127: Hidden Crisis
This emperor did not ask a concubine to accompany him this time, which is really incredible, and they are all guessing the emperor's thoughts. When he walked to Su Xiaran's side, he said, "The general has worked hard, why don't you sit in the sedan chair and rest?"
Su Xiaran refused: "No need, I'll just rest here."
Seeing that Su Xiaran rejected himself straightforwardly, the emperor did not insist anymore, but returned to the carriage and enjoyed the imperial food prepared before.
Fang Lan asked puzzledly on the side: "Ran'er, why do I think this emperor's attitude towards you is weird, I didn't bring a concubine with me on this hunt, could it be that he is..."
Before Fang Lan finished speaking, Cheng Moya suddenly appeared, interrupted her words, and said, "Sister Su, I'm so happy to see you again, this is the flower cake of our Southern Autumn Kingdom, do you want to taste it?"
Su Xiaran took the flower cake in her hand and said, "Thank you."
Cheng Moya saw that Su Xiaran didn't have anything extra to say to her, so she had no choice but to walk away.
After resting for a long time, everyone set off again, and the more they walked along the way, the farther and farther away from the palace, the surrounding environment was quiet and inaccessible.
If it weren't for the fact that this hunt would pass through this area, it wouldn't have become so popular. The thousands of people in the group did not speak, but walked in one direction in a neat line.
The air was unusually quiet, and the sound of birds in the forest accompanied it, but after a while, the sound of birds suddenly disappeared. It made Su Xiaran feel very abnormal.
Could it be that the emperor was going out of the palace to hunt leaked out in advance. Let those small countries that have lost the war get the news in advance, and they are specially ambushed here.
Su Xiaran had all the possibilities in his mind at this moment, otherwise how could there be no movement at all in the normal woods. Unless someone is here, let these animals all avoid it.
Su Xiaran would carefully observe every step he took, preventing anything unexpected and uncontrollable.
Fortunately, after they arrived at the place of the hunting ground in the western suburbs, nothing happened. While Su Xiaran breathed a sigh of relief, he still couldn't let go of the worries in his heart.
After all, now that there are so many of them in such a hunting ground, it is like a battle of trapped beasts, if they have been surrounded by people from the beginning, it will be difficult to break through again.
Halfway through, Su Xiaran had already suggested to the emperor to return the same way, but it was rejected, and he had no choice but to move forward.
After everyone's tent was stationed, Su Xiaran walked out of the tent. She and Fang Xin were arranged in a tent. In this way, two people can take care of each other.
And the eldest princess and the third princess are all in a separate tent, and everyone is also equipped with a maid.
Su Xiaran and Fang Xin walked around the hunting ground, taking a look at the surrounding environment nearby.
Fang Xin naturally saw Su Xiaran's uneasiness, and asked, "Ran'er, do you think that we have come all the way, as if someone is following us all the way?"
Seeing that Fang Xin immediately struck his mind, Su Xiaran no longer concealed it, and said: "That's right, in the wilderness, anything can happen, if there is really a spy in the palace and leaks the emperor's hunting in advance, it is estimated that those enemy countries will take this opportunity to ambush us on the way."
Su Xiaran's words are not unreasonable. As generals, their sharpness is naturally better than that of ordinary people. Fang Xin opened his mouth and said: "Otherwise, let's tell the fifth prince about the current situation, with him, we can have more protection."
However, just when Fang Xin was about to go to Ye Moqing, he was stopped by Su Xiaran. said: "You don't need to worry about Sister Xin'er, we can all detect anything, and I believe he can too."
Fang Xin thought about it, even they couldn't understand the martial arts of the five princes, anyway, when they were against Bloodthirsty at that time, they were not at a disadvantage. It's obviously not the same level as them.
If you don't add the Snow Treading Sword and Plum Blossom Needle, Su Xiaran's combat power can only be regarded as the middle and upper reaches of Fenglin Kingdom, and he will definitely not be able to get any benefit from bloodthirsty anyway.
On the first day they go to the hunting ground, they will naturally have a good rest for a day, and tomorrow the real hunt will begin. When the crowd disperses, no one knows what will happen.
It's a rare task to think that everyone can do both. After Su Xiaran and Fang Xin returned to the tent, they fell asleep early. I just want to be in good spirits the next day.
Rest in the wilderness is different from the General's Mansion. Su Xiaran was responsible for the safety of all the people, so naturally he would wake up as soon as possible. Fang Xin has always gotten up early. After seeing Su Xiaran follow.
smiled and said, "It's really hard for you, you didn't sleep soundly last night, did you?"
As long as he was outside, Su Xiaran barely slept peacefully, but fortunately spent the first night peacefully.
After everyone woke up and dressed up, the emperor called everyone together and said: "I haven't moved my muscles and bones for a long time, this time it happens that the prince and princess of the Southern Qiu Kingdom are coming, we can have a good competition, the hunting ground here belongs to the territory of my Fenglin Kingdom, as long as it is within the range, it will be fine, everyone should not go out of the protective circle of the hunting ground."
Su Xiaran had already arranged for people to be stationed around the protective circle, as long as there was any movement, she would know as soon as possible, but if she left the protective circle, what would happen, Su Xiaran had no choice.
Cheng Mohan opened his mouth and said: "Thank you for the emperor's hospitality, I ask to have a competition with the five princes." Look at who has more prey and who has less prey. ”
Ye Moqing, who was suddenly named, reacted this time and said: "Since the prince values me so much, it is better to be respectful than to obey my fate."
The conversation between the two made the eldest prince as the emperor a little embarrassed, but on the surface, he still had to say with a pleasant face: "Since the two of you are so interested, I will stay here today, you two have a good competition, come back and let me see how much game I can get."
After nodding their heads, they mounted their horses and galloped away with their men.
The rest of the people didn't have too many requirements, and the ladies were free to move around.
Su Xiaran didn't have any interest in these, so he stayed in the camp with Fang Xin. Fang Xin said: "Ran'er, such a good opportunity, you just stay here, why don't I accompany you out for a run and see how the bow and arrow you temporarily learned from Achu before will be effective?"
Su Xiaran sat down on the dresser and said, "Don't make fun of me, it's really uncomfortable to wear this mask for so long." As he spoke, he removed the mask from his face.
A face like a hibiscus out of the water appeared in Fang Xin and Su Xiaran's own eyes.
Fang couldn't help but admire: "Ran'er, you are really a real person, these three princes mainly know that the rough general has such a disguise, even if he has the appearance of a captivating city, he will be ashamed of himself."
Su Xiaran gently stroked her face with her hand, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, "This face is not like herself at all, whether it is Su Feng or the Yan family, but since she was sensible, she knew that she was born to Su Feng and the Yan family." ”
Thinking of this, Su Xiaran couldn't help but think of the wizard he met in Crescent Town. Why would he rather commit suicide when he saw himself and the snow sword in his hand?
What kind of faith is this, which makes a person even throw away his life. Thinking of what he said at that time, Holy Maiden, what is the God of God?
Although Su Xiaran's heart was full of doubts, he didn't show it in front of Fang Xin.
Naturally, he put on a mask and said, "It's better to be comfortable with a mask." This beast-shaped mask was matched with the one given to Xiaolan at the time.
Looking at this mask, Su Xiaran couldn't help but think of Xiaolan again, and he didn't know how he was doing at the gate of hell now. Take the news that Su Xiaran got before.
The master of this Gate of Hell has taken a fancy to Xiaolan, so he has taken him back to the Gate of Hell to focus on cultivation, and he will not have to worry about his life. Su Xiaran will go to the gate of hell one day.
Just know he's okay. At this time, the third princess, Cheng Moya, did not stay in the camp honestly.
Cheng Moya, who has a simple temperament, doesn't think there will be any danger here, but feels that it is too boring to stay in the camp.
She wanted to walk casually into the forest, but no one stopped her, but she didn't know that the forest was full of dangers and dangers everywhere.
When Cheng Moya left one step earlier, the wind had already gone to the forest. Before going out hunting, Ye Moqing explained to him and asked him to observe the surrounding environment.
Cheng Moya was bored wandering in the forest alone. The forest is quiet, revealing the aroma of grass. Let Cheng Moya immerse himself in it.
Forget the unhappiness in my heart for a while. Now that the situation of their brothers and sisters in the Southern Qiu Kingdom is indeed worrying, then Emperor Meng has always wanted to get rid of her and Cheng Mohan.
But because there has been no suitable opportunity, coupled with several sneak attacks on Cheng Mohan to no avail, he temporarily stopped. But this time is different.
Cheng Mohan and Cheng Moya came to Fenglin Kingdom, far away from Nanqiu Kingdom, and there was no one from the emperor to keep an eye on them. If this Imperial Concubine Meng wanted to send someone to chase and kill, it would be an easy matter.
Anyway, if the two of them died in the territory of Feng Linguo, she could also get out of the relationship logically. plus the purpose of the two of them coming to Fenglin Kingdom.
How could the clear-minded Concubine Meng not know that if she really attracted the powerful forces of Fenglin Kingdom. Wouldn't returning to the Southern Autumn Kingdom make Imperial Concubine Meng feel bad.
So naturally she wouldn't let the two of them go back safely. From the moment they left the Southern Autumn Kingdom for the Fenglin Kingdom. Concubine Meng had already sent someone to follow.
The two of them had been living in the Imperial City of Fenglin Kingdom before, and her people couldn't find a chance to do it at all. But now it's different. After coming out of the palace, all kinds of accidents are possible.
Including accidental deaths. What Su Xiaran noticed on the road was wrong, it was the person sent by Emperor Meng.
Although Su Xiaran felt it, he didn't notice that the secret guard of the Southern Qiu Kingdom should not be underestimated.
In addition to the people of Emperor Meng of the Southern Qiu Kingdom, there was another group of people waiting to take their lives. It's none other than the small defeated states.
Now this Prime Minister Yu is the bloodthirsty eyeliner of the head of Xuanyun Sect, and the news that the emperor is going to leave the palace, Prime Minister Yu told Bloodthirsty early in the morning. Now that there is Ye Moqing, it is not easy for bloodthirsty to come forward directly, so he informed those small countries of the news.
The small country that had suffered heavy losses in that station had a hatred for the Li clan of Fenglin Country buried in their hearts, so they also joined forces, wanting to take this opportunity to wipe them all out.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Su Xiaran to return to Fenglin Kingdom safely.
A lot of potential dangers are around them.
The appearance of these three princesses, Cheng Moya, alone in the dense forest, naturally attracted the attention of those people.
The people who had been lurking around Emperor Meng for a long time were waiting for Cheng Moya or Cheng Mohan to appear.
Now it is rare to see Cheng Moya appear in sight alone, and these people will naturally not miss the opportunity. I've been thinking about dealing with her now.
Cheng Moya's appearance can be regarded as a captivating city. Now sitting alone in the forest has aroused evil thoughts among these people. Anyway, Emperor Meng confessed that she was going to come to Cheng Moya's life.
But they didn't say anything else, of course they could enjoy it when they took her life
