Today she suddenly rolled down the hillside, and was washed away by the river in a blink of an eye, thinking that as long as Shan Zhongze led people to search along the river, it must be easy to find this Qingzhou, but the night was dark, and he didn't see Shan Zhongze leading people to come, the reason for this can only be that Shan Zhongze has been attacked in Nanshan, or when Shan Zhongze led the troops to rescue her, he was attacked.

At this point, Sihan frowned.

I have to say that no matter what the reason, it is extremely unfavorable to her and Shan Zhongze, this anti-people in Jiangnan is well-trained, and it is not an ordinary people's righteous army, yes, if those anti-people not only look at her Yan Sihan's life, but also take a fancy to her personally receiving this batch of disaster relief materials, in this way, the situation will be troublesome.

The more he thought about it, the more complicated Sihan's face became.

After a while, she finally gave up the wait, and was about to go to the mountain village to borrow a horse, but she had just jumped off the stone, and before she could reach out and pick up the lantern on the ground, at the end of the river, several boats with lights suddenly came far away.

In an instant, Si Han suddenly blew out the lantern next to his feet, and the whole person stood in the dark, looking at the distant ship.

After a while, when the ships were closer, Sihan saw that those boats were not big, and there were a few people standing on each boat, or maybe they wanted people to see something, and each ship was actually planted with a flag swaying in the wind.

Sihan's pupils shrank, and she looked carefully through the lights on the ship, only to see that the flag on the ship was her Dongling military flag, and the person standing on the previous ship was strong and familiar.

Sihan's eyes relaxed, and his heart also loosened, and then his lips opened, and he called out a slightly distant voice, "Shan Zhongze." ”

After these words added a little bit of internal force, and after drifting out, the person standing on the first boat suddenly turned his eyes to look at her, and then called in a tight voice, "Eldest princess? ”

As soon as these words fell, the people on the boat looked in the direction of Sihan's voice.

Sihan's eyes moved slightly, and he spoke again, "Shan Zhongze, this palace is here again." ”

"Go in that direction." Shan Zhongze suddenly opened his mouth to command, and his resolute voice was still extremely powerful, but if he listened carefully, it was not difficult to hear a little relief and hoarseness that could not be concealed.

It was only a moment, several ships suddenly changed direction, heading in the direction of Sihan, and when all the ships docked, Sihan slowly walked over and stood in front of the ship.

Shan Zhongze stared at her, and then quickly disembarked with all the people on the boat, and then the extremely respectful Chao Sihan knelt down, and said in a low and hoarse voice: "The subordinate protector is not good, let the eldest princess be in danger, and hope that the eldest princess will be punished." ”

The resolute voice is still hoarse.

Sihan lowered his eyes, and in the swaying lights, he saw that Shan Zhongze's robe was tattered, his hair was messy, and his fingers on the ground were also stained with blood.

Her pupils shrank suddenly, and she said in a low voice, "You guys get up first." ”

As soon as these words fell, Shan Zhongze was still kneeling, and the rest of the people looked at each other cautiously, and then saw that Shan Zhongze was not moving, and several people did not dare to stand up.

Sihan glanced at them lightly, and then turned his gaze towards Shan Zhongze alone, "Shan Zhongze, you lead them up." ”

Shan Zhongze still lowered his eyes, did not say anything, and looked slightly stubborn.

But after only a moment of silence, he finally took the lead in getting up, and the rest of the people hurriedly and cautiously stood up.

"Let the eldest princess be in danger today, and the subordinates ......" Shan Zhongze's face sank greatly.

Sihan raised his eyes to look at him, only to realize that not only his fingers were stained with blood, but even his face was stained with blood.

In an instant, Sihan's face changed slightly, and before Shan Zhongze could speak, he said in a low voice: "Today's incident happened suddenly, and this palace is also a light enemy, so today's danger has nothing to do with you, and you don't need to blame yourself." ”

As he spoke, his voice suddenly picked up, and the words also turned straightforwardly, and continued: "Bengong asks you, these injuries on your body are obtained from fighting those men in black? ”

Shan Zhongze nodded respectfully, "It's true that I fought with those people in black." At that time, seeing the eldest princess rolling down the mountain, her subordinates and others immediately rescued her, but as soon as she slipped into the water, she was stopped by the man in black. ”

In this way, those men in black are really powerful.

Not only can she calculate Yan Sihan once, but she can also trap Shan Zhongze and the elite soldiers for so long, and even didn't pursue her until the night was dark, I have to say, where did those people in black come from!

At this point, Sihan pressed his heart, and said to Shan Zhongze in a low voice: "What happened to those black-clothed people who blocked you? Compensation"

Shan Zhongze's face was full of rigor, and he said respectfully with a slightly hoarse voice: "Those people in black are extremely skilled, and their tricks are fierce, and they are full of murderous energy. ”

Sihan's pupils shrank suddenly, "Can you leave a living mouth?" Pick-up"

Shan Zhongze frowned and nodded, "Stay." It's just that the two men in black seemed to have hidden poison in their mouths before they acted, and when they were caught, they had already committed suicide by biting the poison before the elite soldiers interrogated them on the spot. ”

Committed suicide by biting poison?

Sihan's complexion changed suddenly, and the complex meaning in the depths of his heart became more and more intense.

What kind of organization can be so well-trained, even the men in black who are dispatched can hide poison in their mouths and be loyal.

In this way, fortunately, she came to the south of the Yangtze River on this trip, otherwise, let the forces of those men in black all brainwash and recruit refugees, and develop and grow, and her Tanglin court is also in danger.

"The Jiangnan disaster relief things brought by the palace this time, are they okay?" Sihan's face was gloomy and he continued to ask in a low voice.

Shan Zhongze nodded respectfully, and said hoarsely: "After the subordinates and elite soldiers killed the man in black, the county commanders of the state and county have already prepared a ship for their subordinates to search and rescue the eldest princess. According to the feedback from the elite soldiers who came from the ship together with the state officials, the materials brought by the eldest princess on this trip are being guarded by hundreds of elite soldiers, intact, and the eldest princess is relieved. ”

Sihan's eyes were full of complexity, and he nodded indifferently, "Those black-clothed people today are well-trained and have ruthless tricks. In the days to come, be vigilant and not let up. ”

"Yes." Shan Zhongze nodded hurriedly, his voice respectful.

As he spoke, seeing that Sihan was no longer talking, he changed his words slightly, "It's late at night, is the eldest princess going to get on the boat and leave here?" ”

Sihan didn't say anything, wrapped the robe on his body, and then nodded to Shan Zhongze.

As soon as Sihan sat down on the boat, Shan Zhongze did not delay at all, and immediately ordered the boat.

The ship turned around again and headed upstream.

Sihan's gaze fell towards the dark and bottomless front, and his brows rose almost imperceptibly.

At this time, Shan Zhongze spoke up again respectfully and resolutely, "The river here is not turbulent, and this time the boat can go upstream." When the water is fast, the ship will have to dock, and at that time, the eldest princess will have to walk back to the south of the Yangtze River. ”

Sihan's eyes were slightly dark, and he didn't speak.

Shan Zhongze's expression was slightly tight, and after Chao Sihan condensed for a moment, he explained: "When the subordinates set out to rescue the eldest princess, they rescued the eldest princess only because the boat was the most convenient, and it was also the easiest to find the eldest princess in the river. Because it was late at that time, and the elite soldiers who accompanied Jiangnan were not enough, and there were also disaster relief materials that needed to be guarded by a large number of troops, therefore, the subordinates did not send elite soldiers to ride horses to come, and took the eldest princess back, looked at the eldest princess, and forgave the sins. ”

is still resolute and unwavering, but in the tone, there is still a bit of simplicity and respect.

Sihan's complexion did not change much, he just pressed his heart, slowed down his voice slightly, and only said: "Commander Wang has not done anything wrong, on the contrary, if you don't transfer troops to ride a horse to meet this palace, this palace has to praise you for being calm and thoughtful." This palace is not a weak and weak person, yes, walking on foot, it is nothing. Moreover, now that Jiangnan is in trouble, the villains who attacked today should not be underestimated, because compared to the life of the main palace, Jiangnan's disaster relief materials are more important. And the king commander does not embezzle the troops guarding the disaster relief materials to welcome the palace, but only leads a few people to risk coming, the king commander is bold and careful, and after returning to the palace, the palace will be rewarded to you. ”

Shan Zhongze's pupils fluctuated, he was silent for a moment, got up and knelt down towards Sihan, "The eldest princess is magnanimous, and her subordinates are grateful. But today's incident, after all, his subordinates did not protect the princess, and they were late to rescue her. Fortunately, the eldest princess has nothing to do at this time, if the eldest princess has something to do today, her subordinates will be condemned as Donglin sinners, and it is difficult to escape the blame! ”

Sihan said slowly: "Unexpected things, occasionally unanticipated and guarded, are also natural. This palace doesn't like to be harsh to you, and I don't want to be harsh, just because Shan Zhongze is loyal to you, loyal and loyal, and this palace can be trusted! ”

Shan Zhongze's face became more and more rigorous and respectful, and he kowtowed: "Thank you, eldest princess." ”

"Not long after returning to the palace from the road, the palace has a deep foundation in the harem and the court, and there are very few credible henchmen around him. Today's matter, this palace will not condemn you, but I also hope that you will remember that this palace treats you tolerantly, and I also hope that you will treat me Dongling, heartily. ”

As he spoke, his voice raised, "Get up." ”

Shan Zhongze didn't say a word and got up slowly.

Sihan's eyes moved slightly, staring at him a few times, his thoughts flipped, but he didn't say anything after all.

For a while, the surroundings fell silent, and under the faint lights, everyone had different expressions and thoughts, and they were silent.

A couple of boats went all the way up.

After a long time, the water flow gradually became turbulent, and it was no longer as gentle and weak as that of Qingzhou Hanoi.

Sihan's pupils shrank, and his gaze fell towards Shan Zhongze.

Shan Zhongze immediately understood, and turned his eyes to Jingwei Weiyi, who was rocking the boat, and ordered, "Quickly dock and walk." ”

Several Jingwei who rocked the boat immediately responded, and then rocked the boat to the side.

After all the ships docked, Sihan and his party got off the boat, and several Jingwei took the lanterns and fishing fires on the ship, and took the lead in leading the way.

The night was dark and the wind was cold.

This riverside path is overgrown with thorns, and in many places, there are a lot of vines and grasses that grow wildly and block the way.

Jingwei drew his long sword and walked forward, clearing the weeds or rattans that were slightly in the way for Sihan.

Sihan's face was silent, his eyes were cold, and he followed Jingwei quickly without saying a word.

Along the way, no one made a sound again, leaving the sound of the wind floating, and the sound of rapid footsteps rose chaotically.

For a long time, when the sky was light, Sihan, who was full of exhaustion, finally walked back to the foot of Nanshan Mountain.

At this time, a tent has been set up at the foot of the mountain.

Outside the tent, there were several state officials waiting, and several of them were walking around in a hurry, anxiously circling.

When Sihan and his party approached a little, several state officials suddenly trotted over, and they only glanced at Sihan quickly, and then they all knelt down in front of Sihan, and said in a trembling voice: "Down, down, bye, meet the eldest princess." ”

Sihan stopped, lowered his eyes and swept towards them, and his reaction to them was also clear.

She Yan Sihan was suddenly in distress in Jiangnan, her life and death were unknown, and she thought that these state officials in Jiangnan must be so anxious and frightened that they were almost all gone.

It's just that these state officials have not fled at night because of fear, but they are also a little bold, if not, the slightly timid ones are afraid that they have already been frightened and disappeared without a trace.

"Get up." At this point, Sihan pressed his heart and whispered to them.

As soon as these words fell, and without waiting for the state officials to react, she slowly moved forward into the tent in front of her.
