Chapter 188: The Period of the Alliance
Only then did the two react and hurriedly walked towards Yuling Palace.
If you calculate according to the time, Miao Xi should have been imprisoned in the Yuling Palace for two full days.
After sleeping all night, it was the first melon that had just broken, and it was already physically exhausted, and I fainted several times last night, begging endlessly.
If you don't eat or drink for two more days......
It's going to kill you!
Yang Mu also realized the seriousness of the problem, although Miao Xi is a martial arts master in the mortal realm, but in terms of eating and drinking, he is not much better than ordinary people, after his physical strength is exhausted, he is even worse than ordinary people, plus he has been imprisoned for a long time, and he is anxious, and he must be even more unbearable.
Science has proved that human beings will die of dehydration if they don't drink water for three days, Miaoxi was already sweating profusely that day, if ...... I can't imagine!
The two hurriedly drove the Yuling Palace, and before the palace maids and eunuchs could meet them, they walked directly into the palace.
Several palace maids stood outside, and when they saw Yang Mu and the queen, they saluted one after another, and they were all a little surprised, because in the past six months, the queen had not rested in Yuling Palace for the first time.
"Isn't there a sound inside?" Yang Mu asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, there were still some muffled snorts yesterday, and today ...... There is no sound today. The maid replied.
"Oops!" Yang Mu secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly entered the cabinet and opened the bed tent of the phoenix couch.
Sure enough, Miao Xi was still confined to the bed, and her mouth was still the same small ball, perhaps because the saliva was flowing too much, it looked very dry, and her mouth was a little white.
And her face looked very pale, and her eyes were closed.
It can be seen that she has struggled, her wrists are full of marks, and her skin is torn.
Miao Xi looked dying, perhaps because she heard the voice, and her eyelids opened slightly.
After seeing Yang Mu, Miao Xi suddenly opened her eyes, as if she was about to use her last strength, struggling desperately, and her mouth made a sound of humming, which could be seen that she wanted to speak.
Still alive......
Yang Mu breathed a sigh of relief, as long as his life was fine, with Miaoxi's martial arts foundation, as long as he gave some water to drink, he could basically be saved.
Yang Mu went up, pulled out her mouth plug, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
"Dead ...... No. Miao Xi replied weakly, and a few tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
Yang Mu said angrily: "Look, what kind of bad idea you came up with, and in the end you will reap the consequences." Say, will you listen to it in the future? ”
Miao Xi turned her head and said nothing.
"If you don't say that, then I'll go." Yang Mu turned around and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Miao Xi was shocked and hurriedly said: "Obedient, I must be obedient!" ”
Yang Mu nodded, called the palace maid, and asked someone to bring a bowl of porridge and feed her in small bites.
After she recovered a little, Yang Mu unbuttoned the buttons on her wrists, asked people to prepare a pool of hot water, bathed her, changed into new clothes, and smeared the scars on her wrists with plaster.
Obviously, after such an experience, Miao Xi was a lot more honest, and occasionally said something frivolous, but Yang Mu looked directly at him and immediately stopped talking.
At night, Yang Mu slept in Yuling Palace, but this time, it was replaced by the queen and Miaoxi on the left and right, and it was naturally not a problem.
During this period, under the instruction of the queen, Yang Mu conducted several obedient training and tests on Miaoxi, and the results were not bad.
……
On April 26, the spring breeze blows the willows, and the new swallows peck the spring mud.
On the outskirts of the imperial city, there are crowds of people, the people are looking at both sides of the official road, and the civil and military officials are standing at the gate of the city to bid farewell to Long Yuan.
Bells, drums, and harps, and military songs rose above the city.
The long line, like a long dragon, totaled more than 1,000 people.
Yang Mu sat in the dragon chariot, and under the seat were Miao Xi and Ji Ling'er, one left and one right, close protection.
On both sides of the dragon chariot were Shen An and Hu Xiao, both of whom were riding horses, looking around vigilantly.
Especially as the commander of the pro-guard army, Hu Xiao was very cautious.
Originally, he was from the Blue Dragon Legion, but after the end of the Northern Expedition, Yang Mu realized that the personal guard force around him was a little weak, so he transferred the elite from the four major legions and expanded the personal guard army of 400 people to 1,000 people.
Hu Xiao is also one of them.
With his amazing strength and flexible mind, Hu Xiao quickly made a name for himself in the pro-guard army, which made the old guards in the pro-guard army also praise him, and also won Yang Mu's trust.
Later, the queen gave all the guards and personal guards, including the soldiers in the army, a set of exercises tailor-made, and the degree of difficulty was also different.
If you want to go into battle to kill the enemy, Shen An, a eunuch who prefers to fight alone, may not be as powerful as Hu Wei.
So, of course, Yang Mu promoted him to the commander of the pro-guard army.
Therefore, now around Long Yuan, Shen An is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and Hu Xiao is the leader of the pro-guard army, and the two of them jointly protect Yang Mu's safety.
Of course, on the bright side, the Jinyi guards were not in the queue, but scattered all over the way, secretly protecting, mainly led by the little guy.
Not to mention, don't look at the little boy is just a teenager, he has been bumpy since he was a child and has experience in killing, after establishing a belief, he has become extraordinarily ruthless, like a sharp blade out of the sheath, becoming the second-in-command of Jinyiwei.
Different from the Northern Expedition, this time the alliance was mainly to rush to the imperial city of the Jin State, and it was not the nearest way to cross the Shengguo, but to enter the Shengguo directly from the northwest border of the Cangguo, and then take the Dongguo, from the Shang Road to the territory of the Jin State, and go straight to the Jincheng Huimeng.
Along the way, Yang Mu also witnessed the changes in Cangguo.
The most remarkable thing is that the official road under your feet has become wide and flat, and there are some small stones in the soft soil, so even if it rained a few days ago, there is no muddy feeling on the ground.
This is all the credit of the Ministry of Industry, which spent a lot of money to organize civilians to repair several major official roads in the country, which is conducive to the exchange of people and caravans in peacetime, and is more conducive to supporting the front line in wartime.
From Cangcheng to the border, it took nearly two days, escorted by the border army, and entered the territory of Shengguo.
It was also from this time that the entire alliance team became vigilant, and even Miao Xi, who had been cultivating internal breath, had to take out a small gourd from his waist and release dozens of black bees and fly away.
"What is this?"
Yang Mu was surprised, he had grown so big, he had never seen such a strange bee, its appearance was the same size as a bee, but it was as black as ink, and its teeth and claws were very hideous, and it was not a harmless insect at first glance.
