Chapter 732: Critical
At the rear of the convoy, the cars of Yang Guozhong and Mrs. Qin Guo and Mrs. Han followed the holy car, and the guards of Yang Guozhong and the Yang family sisters were escorted in the car, and the number was only more than 400 people. On the way before coming, the soldiers and horses of the Dragon Wu Army and the Flying Dragon Army, who protected the holy car, did not care about the cars of Xiangguo and the Yang family sisters. However, out of Jincheng County until the afternoon, hundreds of Longwu Army guards slowly fell to the back of the convoy, as if they were breaking off, in fact, they were all protecting the Yang family's convoy.
Mrs. Qin Guo noticed this situation first, but she didn't care, and Yang Guozhong didn't even notice such a change, and sat in his luxurious car and fell asleep to make up for the lack of a good night's sleep in the dilapidated and dirty house last night.
When Xuanzong's car stopped in front, Yang Guozhong also woke up, looked ahead with red eyes, and ordered someone to ask what was going on. Soon after, the news came, saying that the concubine was unwell and seemed to have a fever, and His Majesty stopped driving and wanted to ask the imperial doctor for treatment. Yang Guozhong put his mind at ease, as long as there were no rebels suddenly appeared, it would be nothing serious. The concubine is weak, and she really can't stand the bumps along the way. Yang Guozhong originally had the intention of giving up his luxury car to the concubine and His Majesty to sit, but because he didn't do it at the beginning, it would be a sin to say it now, so he simply didn't ask.
But Mrs. Qin Guo, who got the news, was very anxious, she knew that her little sister was delicate, and when she heard that she had a cold and a fever, she immediately got out of the car in a hurry, holding the medicine box she was carrying with her to visit. However, she stepped on the muddy snow and muddy water and walked forward only a dozen steps, and on both sides there were more than a dozen guards of the Longwu Army galloping on horseback, and the sewage from the horses' hooves splashed the pomegranate skirt of the Qin State.
"Dare to ask Madame where she is going?" A dragon warrior general asked in a loud voice.
Mrs. Qin Guo frowned and said, "I heard that Niangniang suffered from the cold, and Mrs. Ben wanted to visit her." ”
"There is an order from above, you are not allowed to get out of the car and walk around at will, please go back to the car." Na Lang will say in a deep voice.
"What are these words? Isn't it okay for me to visit the concubine? The team stopped here, and it was not in a hurry, so even if Mrs. Ben got out of the car and walked, there was nothing wrong with it. Mrs. Qin frowned and reprimanded.
"This is an order from above, Madame Fan doesn't want to be angry with us, we are just carrying out the military order."
"The order from above? Your Majesty's Decree? Or is it Chen Xuanli's military order? Mrs. Ben went and asked. Mrs. Qin Guo said angrily.
"Madame, please don't embarrass us, let Madame ask, isn't it to ask us to disobey military orders? I'm going to lose my head. Madame had better go back to the car. Someone, please ask Mrs. Qin Guo to get in the car. Na Lang said in a deep voice with a sneer on his face.
Several dragon guards approached, and a soldier smiled and said, "Madam, please go back to the car and wait quietly, don't make me wait for embarrassment." ”
Mrs. Qin Guo said angrily: "I just sent a medicine box to Niangniang, why did you stop it?" How can this really be true? ”
"Madam, we can transfer the medicine box to the lady for Mrs., but Mrs. must return to the car and wait in accordance with the military order, please cooperate with our errand, so as not to make everyone look bad." Na Lang will say in a deep voice.
Although Mrs. Qin Guo was angry, she also felt that there was no need to talk to these generals. She handed the medicine box to General Na Lang, turned around and drove towards Yang Guozhong's car, she wanted Yang Guozhong to come forward to teach this group of forbidden soldiers who were neither big nor small. However, she had only taken a few steps before she was immediately blocked back again, and two healthy horses stepped in the mud in front of her.
"Madame, where are you going? Madame's car was in the rear. Na Lang said.
"I'll go see how my cousin is, won't that work?" Mrs. Qin Guo was really angry.
"I'm sorry Madame, the order is to ask everyone not to leave the car, and ask Madame to go back to the car." Na Lang shouted coldly.
Suddenly, Mrs. Qin Guo realized the seriousness of the problem, and her mind flashed the words that Wang Yuan had told her many times, and the implication that the Yang family was about to come to her was extremely clear at this moment. At the time, I didn't feel it at all.
The situation in front of him is absolutely unusual, these forbidden soldiers are respectful when they see themselves on weekdays, and they are all accompanied by smiling faces. And now, one by one, staring at each other, without showing any affection, this is already very weird. Moreover, he doesn't even have the right to see Yang Guozhong, that is to say, in fact, he and everyone have been isolated. Restricting movement is house arrest, and that's a red flag. In an instant, the idea of running away from her feet flashed in Mrs. Qin's mind, but she knew that if she was really under house arrest by the guards, she would not be able to run away, so she could only act with the camera.
Mrs. Qin Guo sighed, put on a smiling face and said, "It's okay, you are also thinking about the safety of the car, Mrs. Ben can understand." I'll go back to the car, you wait for a while, present this medicine box, and give the concubine a dose of medicine to reduce her condition. ”
"Madame, don't worry, the humble post will be presented."
"Very well, I'm sorry for you, what's your name? I'll go back and let Sangkook reward you. Mrs. Qin Guo said with a smile.
"The reward just don't dare, you might as well inform Mrs. of the name of the lowly position, the lowly position is Chen Daoqian, the lieutenant general of the Longwu Army, and if the lady wants to have any orders in the future, you can directly seek the lowly position."
Originally, Mrs. Qin Guo asked him for his name because it was a threat, but Chen Daoqian did not hesitate, and directly informed Mrs. Qin Guo of his name and official position, which meant that although you came to trouble me, I don't care.
Mrs. Qin Guo was speechless, turned around and took the maid back to her car, and after lowering the curtain, her heart was angry, angry and frightened, and she fluttered violently. She was vaguely aware that something big was about to happen, and she was afraid that it was aimed at their Yang family. After pausing for a moment, Mrs. Qin Guo frowned and thought hard, she couldn't sit still like this, maybe she should find a way to inform Yang Guozhong of this. Yang Guozhong didn't get out of the car, I'm afraid he was still in the dark.
The car soon began to move forward again, and more than 100 guards came to the rear of the convoy in front of them, escorting the Yang family's car, obviously because of their behavior just now, the forbidden army sent more soldiers and horses to guard, and the matter was already obviously aimed at them Yang family. Mrs. Qin Guo calmed her thoughts, thought for a while, lifted the curtain, beckoned a maid who was walking with the car to come over, handed her a handkerchief, and whispered to her to quietly walk to Yang Guozhong's car and hand the handkerchief to Yang Guozhong.
The maid nodded hurriedly in agreement, took a handkerchief and slowly drove towards Yang Guozhong's car in front, Mrs. Qin Guo looked at it through the gap in the curtain, and saw that when the maid was about to go to Yang Guozhong's car, two forbidden soldiers rode up and stopped the maid. After a few moments, the maid was forced to call out the handkerchief.
Mrs. Qin Guo hurriedly lowered the curtain and sat in the darkness to breathe. There was actually nothing in the handkerchief, it was a white handkerchief, and Mrs. Qin Guo just wanted to know if she could pass the news to Yang Guozhong in this way, but now it seemed impossible. Mrs. Qin Guo was disappointed and scared, what was the bottom of what greeted her and the people of the Yang family? Why did the Forbidden Army do this? Who gave this order? Your Majesty? Chen Xuanli? Or is it someone else?
It's because you don't know what's going to happen that it's even more terrifying. At this moment, Mrs. Qin Guo misses Wang Yuan very much, and hopes that Wang Yuan will suddenly appear here with troops, so she will not be afraid of anything. However, outside the car window were monotonous snowfields, black mountains, yellow grass, and cold wind, and there was not even the slightest sign of Wang Yuan's arrival with his army.
Next to Xuanzong's car, Chen Xuanli led more than 100 soldiers to follow the car closely, not leaving half a step for a moment. In the rear, Zhonglang rode Chen Daoqian over, handed the medicine box in his hand to Chen Xuanli and said: "General, the medicine presented by Mrs. Qin Guo said that she was going to give the noble concubine Niangniang a medicine to reduce fever. ”
Chen Xuanli stretched out his hand to take it, looked at it a few times, and didn't even open the medicine box, and with a wave of his hand, the medicine box flew out of the official road in an arc and landed in the snow on the side of the road.
"What kind of medicine to take? People are going to die. Chen Xuanli muttered in a low voice.
……
Between the lofty mountains, 3,000 cavalry were galloping on the rugged mountain road. After a day of galloping without rest, Wang Yuangongsun Lan Liujun and others had already rushed out of the embrace of the Qinling Mountains and left the mountains behind.
Ahead was the mountain pass, Wang Yuan finally reined in his horse, and the soldiers were able to take a breather and take out a water bladder to drink a few sips of water.
"Bring me the map." Wang Yuan stretched out his hand and said.
Tan Ping took out the sheepskin map from his arms, and the lines and marks were drawn in circles on the top, which was the map drawn by Wang Yuan in the past two years from Chang'an to Longyou and even Jiannan and Hexi. This time, Wang Yuan brought out a detailed map west of Chang'an.
Wang Yuan's fingers spread along the direction of the extension of the official road, stopped at a blood-red red dot, and said softly: "Out of the mountain pass, fifty miles is Maweipo." I wonder where His Majesty's car is now? ”
Gongsun Lan said: "Didn't you say yesterday that you arrived in Jincheng County?" Jincheng County is more than 50 miles away from Ma Weiyi, and the speed of driving must not be very fast, and it must not have arrived yet. It is estimated that they will arrive before the second watch, but I don't know if they will camp halfway, if they will arrive before noon tomorrow. ”
Wang Yuan pondered for a moment and said: "The area between Jincheng County and Ma Wei Yi is a land of mountains and wilderness, and they have nowhere to stay, so they should rush to Ma Wei Yi overnight." And we have to get there before they do. ”
"But Dashuai, we still have to travel fifty miles out of the mountain pass, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up. And the sun is about to set, so it's not easy to discredit the road, and falling into a snow pit is no joke. Zhao Qing said in a deep voice.
Wang Yuan looked back at the sun that was gradually sinking in the west, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, you have to arrive, even if it's a night trip." Listen to me, this time is more important than anything, even more urgent than all our previous leaders going out to fight, no matter what, we have to rush to Ma Weiyi, do you hear? ”
"Inferior obedience!" Zhao Qing and Tan Ping said solemnly.
Wang Yuan looked back at Liu Jun beside him, but seeing that Liu Jun bit his lip tightly, his eyes were a little red, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Liu Jun, don't worry, we will definitely arrive." ”
Liu Jun gritted his teeth and nodded: "Father-in-law, don't worry about me, the child understands." If my mother-in-law is really in danger, please ask my father-in-law to allow the child to kill them all. ”
Wang Yuan sneered: "If your mother has three longs and two shorts, I will also break them into ten thousand pieces." Hurry up and drink a few sips of water and chew two mouthfuls of dry food, time is pressing, and we are on our way. ”
