Chapter 129: Invited
Hua Feiyan took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, Feiyan will send some people to Zunling Mountain to investigate first, and maybe he can find out the clues!" β
Liu Xiu nodded thoughtfully and said, "Just inquire, once you find out the whereabouts of Jin Dan and Zhang'er, don't rush to the rescue, report the news immediately!" β
"Non-smoke understands!"
Hua Feiyan answered and walked out quickly.
This afternoon, Liu Xiu was restless, waiting for the news to come back from the side of Tsukasa Mountain.
Liu Zhang's guards were still searching in the Tomb Ridge Mountain, but no news came back after an afternoon.
At dinner, seeing Liu Xiu's worried look, Luo You whispered and comforted: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry too much, the servant believes that Jiren has his own natural appearance." β
Liu Xiu smiled bitterly and said quietly: "If Zhang'er has three longs and two shorts, how can I be worthy of the eldest brother's spirit in the sky!" β
Luo humorously said that she had been by Liu Xiu's side for a long time, so she naturally knew Liu Xiu's importance and love for Liu Zhang.
That night, Liu Xiu tossed and turned on the bed, and I don't know how long she tossed before she fell asleep in a daze.
In her sleep, Liu Xiu felt like she was back when she was a child.
There was a confused white mist all around, and in the fog ahead, there was a familiar back, even if the other party didn't look back, but Liu Xiu knew very well that it was the eldest brother.
Seeing the eldest brother, Liu Xiu was pleasantly surprised, and ran forward vigorously, wanting to catch up with the eldest brother, but no matter how hard he tried, the distance between the two remained the same.
Liu Xiu was so anxious, why didn't the eldest brother stop and wait for him?
He couldn't help choking, and cried loudly while chasing: "Brother! Big brotherβ" But the back in front of him seemed to be unheard, and he was still walking forward.
I don't know how long I ran, how long I chased it, but when Liu Xiu was so tired that he couldn't run and had to stop, the people in front finally stopped walking.
The man stopped, turned his head, Liu Xiu looked at the familiar face, wasn't that his eldest brother or who?
Liu Xiu stood up from the ground and shouted loudly: "Big brother, wait for me!" β
"Go hard!"
Liu Xiu in the mist looked at Liu Xiu happily and said.
"Big brother!"
Liu Xiu ran forward quickly, trying to grab Liu Xiu.
But when his hand was about to grab Liu Xuan, the latter's body was weak, and suddenly turned into a cloud of white mist, which merged with the surrounding white mist.
Liu Xiu waved his hand vigorously, and the white mist in front of him dissipated a little, but he searched around, where was the figure of the eldest brother?
At this time, Liu Xiu woke up suddenly, and sat up violently on the bed, wheezing violently, and his heart was beating violently.
He subconsciously looked around, this was the dormitory, empty, and there was no one else but him.
Liu Xiu felt that her cheeks were cold, and when she raised her hand to touch it, her face was already full of tears.
Zhang'er has something, but he doesn't do anything, the eldest brother is blaming himself! Liu Xiu's eyes were red, and her tears couldn't help but fall again.
He didn't remember how long he hadn't dreamed of his eldest brother again, this time Zhang'er had an accident, and he suddenly dreamed of his eldest brother again, isn't this what the eldest brother hopes he will do to save Zhang'er?
Liu Xiu picked up a handkerchief beside him, wiped the tears on his face, floated out of bed, and quickly put on it.
Without the eldest brother, there would be no Liu Xiu today, and if something happens to Zhang'er, he must not sit idly by.
This dream made Liu Xiu make up his mind, even if he faced Jin Dan directly, even if he fought to the death with Jin Dan, he would save Liu Zhang.
Liu Xiudu got dressed, opened the door, and walked out slowly.
Tonight was Zhang Kun on duty, who was kneeling at the door outside the dormitory, leaning against the door frame and napping.
He looked at Zhang Kun, who was asleep, didn't call him, lightened his steps and movements, and gently closed the door with his hand.
Then, with his legs raised high, he landed lightly, walked through the main hall, opened the door of the hall through a gap, and flashed out sideways.
When he got outside, he raised his eyes to look at Zhang Kun, this kid was still sleeping soundly, Liu Xiu smiled, and slowly closed the door of the palace.
He didn't dare to wake up Zhang Kun, if he let Zhang Kun wake up and knew that he was going to Zunling Mountain, it would probably not take a moment and a half, and the entire Weiyang Palace would have to be woken up by him.
After closing the door, Liu Xiu turned around and was startled by the four black shadows behind him.
He fixed his eyes and looked at it, okay, Luo You, Xuying, Xuting, and Xufei were lined up, as if they were standing guard, standing straight outside the main hall.
Luo You was about to speak, Liu Xiu raised his index finger and made a silent gesture.
Then he walked briskly down the steps and asked softly, "Why are you standing here instead of sleeping?" β
Xu Ying asked bluntly, "Where is Your Majesty going?" β
Seeing the four of them staring at him intently, Liu Xiu understood that he couldn't hide it, and said straight to the point: "Tonight, the eldest brother is coming to me!" β
"......" Luo Yu was speechless.
"......" Xuying, Xuting, and Xufei are even more speechless.
Your Majesty, how many years has your eldest brother been dead?
Liu Xiu continued: "Big brother said that Zhang'er is his only blood and blood, and I want to rescue Zhang'er from the tiger's mouth no matter what!" Over the years, Zhang'er has lived too hard...... "After Liu Jiu was killed, Liu Zhang's life was indeed very bitter, but then again, during that time, Liu Zhang's life was bitter, Liu Xiu's life was even more bitter and depressing, and he greeted people with a smile during the day, and only dared to cry secretly in the bed at night when no one was around.
However, after Liu Xiu became emperor, Liu Zhang also turned over and became the king of Taiyuan, becoming the most favored nephew of the Son of Heaven, under one person and above ten thousand.
Liu Zhang has no father, but he has a good uncle.
After holding back for a long time, Xu Ying asked, "Your Majesty must go to Tsukaling Mountain?" β
Liu Xiu Zhengse said: "I have to go!" β
"My subordinates will go with Your Majesty!"
"No, Jin Dan said, let me go alone, and besides, it will be dangerous for you to go."
Humble English said firmly: "Either Your Majesty will take me and the others with you, or Your Majesty will kill me and others now!" β
Liu Xiu was speechless, and after a while, he let out a long breath and said, "When we get to Tsukaling Mountain, we will act when we see the opportunity!" β
Hearing this, Luo You and the others all showed joy on their faces, secretly looked at Xuying, and secretly raised their thumbs, at the critical moment, Xuying could still be tough in front of His Majesty.
A group of five of them walked through the East Palace Gate and quietly walked out of Weiyang Palace.
Then the five of them rode horses, went out of the city from the east gate of Chang'an, and went straight to Tsukaling Mountain.
To make a long story short, the next morning, Liu Xiu and others, who were galloping all the way, finally arrived at Tsukasa Mountain.
Tsukaling Mountain is a large mountain range, undulating, you can't see the edge at a glance, and the mountains are densely forested, and everywhere you look, there is a piece of emerald green.
In such a large mountain forest, trying to find a person is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
Of course, Liu Xiu was not stupid enough to search for Jin Dan and Liu Zhang, he knew in his heart that the other party's goal was himself, and since he had arrived at Zunling Mountain, the other party would always take the initiative to find him.
Liu Xiu rode a horse and walked in front, Luo You and Xuying rode horses and followed behind, and they were a group of five people and slowly entered the mountain road.
The trail was flat and spacious, more than enough for the five of them to walk side by side on horseback.
They were walking forward, and suddenly, they heard a whoosh, Liu Xiu's legs clamped the horse's belly, and he lifted the reins hard, the war horse neighed, and the two front hooves were raised high.
Syllable! An arrow flew out of the woods, swept underneath the horse's belly and pinned to a large tree on the other side of the road.
"Who?"
Xuying, Xuting, and Xufei shouted at the same time, jumped off their horses, and made a gesture to burrow into the woods.
Liu Xiu raised his hand and called the three of them.
The other party's cold arrow was obviously not intended to hurt him.
Xu Ying looked at the arrow nailed to the trunk of the tree, and saw that there was still a strip of cloth tied to it, he walked over quickly, pulled the arrow off, untied the strip of cloth, unfolded it, and then handed the strip of cloth to Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu took it, and there were four words written on the cloth strip: Tangting Mountain Top.
Sure enough, the other party really took the initiative to find him! Seeing the handwriting on this piece of cloth, Liu Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief.
Tangting Mountain is a mountain in the Tsukayama Mountains, not far from where they are now.
Liu Xiu looked at the strip of cloth, squinted his eyes, groaned slightly, and said, "Go!" Go to Tangting Mountain! β
After a pause, he gave the cloth to Xufei and said, "Find our people, tell them the news!" β
At this time, there were many people searching for Liu Zhang in Zunling Mountain, including the guards of the Taiyuan Palace, the Hongnong County Army, and the people of Yunxi Pavilion.
Xufei took the strip of cloth and looked at Liu Xiu worriedly, who smiled at him and said, "The faster you can send the message, the safer I will be!" β
Hearing this, Xufei didn't hesitate any longer, put away the strip of cloth, jumped on the war horse, and turned the horse away.
From the main road in the mountains, to go to Tangting Mountain, you have to take the mountain stream path.
The trail is not easy to follow, it is rugged and narrow, and the ground is full of large and small rocks.
After walking for a while, Liu Xiu and others dismounted one after another and walked forward.
Tangting Mountain is a famous mountain in the Tsukasa mountain system, and the landscape on the top of the mountain is very beautiful, and there will be tourists to come to play during the New Year's Festival.
Liu Xiu and the four of them made a lot of effort to climb Tangting Mountain, they didn't have the heart to enjoy the beautiful scenery here, they raised their eyes to search around, and on the top of the mountain, they couldn't even see a ghost, let alone Jin Dan and Liu Zhang.
Just when Liu Xiu was looking around, Luo You's exclamation came from behind him: "Your Majesty! Come and see here! β
Liu Xiu turned around and walked quickly towards Luo You.
I saw a white cloth towel tied to the trunk of a pine tree on the top of the mountain.
Liu Xiu looked at it, shook his head and said, "Take a look!" β
Xu Ying stepped forward and took off the cloth towel, Liu Xiu took it, looked at it carefully, and there were four words on it: Qingque Mountain Peak.
The handwriting on this white cloth towel is exactly the same as the handwriting on the strip of cloth just now, and it is obvious that it is from the same person's handwriting.
After reading these four words, Liu Xiu's face was gloomy, and she couldn't help but slam the cloth towel on the ground.
They finally climbed Tangting Mountain, and the other party asked them to go to Qingque Mountain.
It was very windy on the top of the mountain, and after the white cloth towel landed, it was about to be swept away by the mountain wind, Liu Xiu's hands were quick, he stepped on the cloth towel with one foot, bent down and picked it up again, handed it to Xu Ying, and signaled him to tie it back to its original place.
Luo You looked at Liu Xiu and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, we are ...... now" and "Go to Qingque Mountain!" β
Liu Xiu squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.
The other party is obviously slipping away from them, but Liu Xiu can't help it, who let Liu Zhang now be in the hands of others! When he came down the mountain, Luo You clenched his little fists and said angrily: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the servant, you should transfer all the Jingshi troops and surround the Zunling Mountain, so that Jin Dan can hardly fly." β
Liu Xiu shook his head helplessly and said: "The Tomb Ridge Mountain is so big, even if there are hundreds of thousands of people, they can't surround it, not to mention, Zhang'er is still in Jindan's hands, I don't care about Jindan's life or death, I just want Zhang'er to live!" β
They went down to Tangting Mountain, and Liu Xiu sent a virtual court to inform his personnel that they didn't need to come to Tangting Mountain again, and they all went to Qingque Mountain.
Qingque Mountain is not far from Tangting Mountain, but it is not close.
When Liu Xiu, Xu Ying, and Luo You came to the foot of Qingque Mountain, the sky had gradually darkened.
Raise your eyes and look up, this big mountain, you can't see the top of the mountain from the bottom of the mountain, halfway up the mountain, the clouds and mist are shrouded, as if half of the mountain peaks are inserted into the sky.
Luo You couldn't help but sigh lightly, and muttered in a low voice: "This time, you won't let us run for nothing again, right?" β
Liu Xiu pursed the corners of his lips, took a few deep breaths, and said, "Go up the mountain!" β
