Since Liu Yan and Chu Shenxia disappeared, Lu Zhi almost couldn't sleep well, and led the team to find someone several times, but it was all in vain, when he first entered this desert, Liu Yan said that no matter whether he found it or not, he had to return in three days at most.

After careful consideration, Lu Zhi made a bold decision, leaving a few soldiers with him to continue the search, and the dry food and water were also very well prepared, so that they could return the same way.

Today is the seventh day for them to enter this desert, Lu Zhi saw that there was not much water left, three days at most, and he went deeper and deeper in the desert, but he didn't even see half of Liu Yan's shadow, and he couldn't find half of it.

"What if I still can't find His Highness today?" The soldiers who came with them were exhausted from the scorching sun for several days.

Lu Zhi was no better, his chin and beard were covered with sand, he looked very embarrassed, licked his dry lips, struggled to get up and said, "Go, continue to look, if you can't find Your Highness, do you still want to go back alive?" ”

Unexpectedly, after only two steps, Lu Zhi fell straight down, burying his whole face in the sand, and several soldiers panicked and hurriedly turned him over.

"Bring water! What are you rubbing?! ”

"Water...... The water is gone, the water bladder is leaking, and the last bit of water is gone. ”

"What! How so? Are we really going to die in this desert? ”

Several people sat on the ground in despair, hanging their heads, sad and speechless, the process of waiting for death was extremely painful and unbearable, not to mention that they were still so young, and they may still have some ideals in their hearts, so they were naturally very unwilling to die like this.

"You won't die, you came in with me, then I will definitely be responsible for taking you out."

With a crisp sound of bells, several camels appeared in everyone's sight, and when everyone saw that it was Liu Yan and Chu Shenxia, they couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Liu Yan got off the camel and looked at Gel Chacha, he smiled faintly at himself, and then hugged his fists and said: "I'll send it here, my people will help you get out of the desert safely, here I am, don't worry." ”

Liu Yan bowed slightly, his eyes were quite grateful, his hands were folded together, and he saluted him before turning around and saying, "Thank you." ”

Gerchachacha's face could not hide his excitement, and then his eyebrows stretched, sighed, and led the camel to the back of countless hills.

It was Dari Ahao who took them out of the desert, and Lu Zhi was driven to a camel, all the way out of the desert, less than ten miles away from the entrance of the desert, Ruoyu was leading a group of soldiers to rush to the center of the desert.

Seeing that Liu Yan was fine, his heart finally let go, but when asked about what happened that night, the two of them kept silent, only saying that they were lost.

But before Liu Yan returned to the palace and took a good bath and rest, Ruoyu had already brought a bad news, and the grain that the people had worked so hard to collect was stolen overnight.

When Liu Yan saw Pei Shudong, he scolded at the mouth: "General Pei! When I left, I handed over the Huangling to you, but what did you do? So many soldiers on patrol allowed the thieves to steal the granaries in the city! ”

Pei Shudong was reprimanded by him and didn't dare to raise his head, the two have been together for so many years, and it is the first time that he has seen His Royal Highness be so angry with him, and he also understands that this matter cannot escape from his negligence, and his face is even redder.

Ruoyu saw that he was unkempt, so the pawns on the side always quietly glanced at him, and hurriedly persuaded: "Your Highness go to bathe and change clothes first, this matter is not in a hurry, General Pei and I will go outside to find some clues first, and Your Highness will go to rest first." ”

"Yes, yes, Your Highness has worked hard, and your body is important." Pei Shudong hurriedly answered, and Liu Yan glared at him fiercely before brushing his sleeves away.

Regarding the arrest of the thief, Pei Shudong really didn't know the bottom in his heart, when the accident just happened, he didn't believe it at all, how could anyone steal all the food under the noses of himself and those brothers? It's still the food of the whole city, it's incredible.

"So much food, too conspicuous, they can't transport it, it should still be in the city now." Chu Shenxia patted him on the shoulder and left.

Pei Shudong suddenly realized, clapped his hands and said: "Yes, why didn't I expect that, Miss Ruoyu, then I will work hard for you, let's take people to find them separately." If you find something, don't startle it. ”

Ruoyu glanced at him obliquely, and his face was clearly written, do you still need to say it? Then he strode like a meteor and walked outside the palace.

"Princess, is there something wrong in the palace, everyone looks anxious." Yuan Qing followed Yongming's gaze and looked at Ruoyu in the distance.

Yongming reached out and took out a flower from his cuff, Liu Yan's pile of withered grass actually bloomed, and before he set off for the desert, he told himself that when the flowers bloomed was when he returned.

She thought it was very absurd at the time, firstly, because how did the withered grass bloom? Second, what does it have to do with him whether he returns or not?

"Princess?" Yuan Qing saw that she was always distracted, and couldn't help but call her.

A ball of pink suddenly ran in the distance, Yongming fixed his eyes, Banrong turned a corner, and was hurrying towards the direction of Xuanxiao Palace, Yongming turned around and said, "Let's go back, the things here have nothing to do with us." ”

Yuan Qing didn't know what was wrong today, but his stubborn temper suddenly came up, tugging at the corner of Yongming's clothes, and whispered: "Princess, haven't you already promised Jing Ming?" Since you want to restore the country, you should know all the big and small things in this palace, maybe today is a godsend? ”

Yongming shook off her hand suddenly, deliberately lowered his voice and reproached: "You are still young, you don't understand many things, it is at the age when you can't distinguish between right and wrong, and you are easily deceived by others, you remember, don't talk about this in the future." ”

Yuan Qing watched her leave herself down and return to the palace alone, some tears appeared in the corners of her eyes, and she hurriedly rubbed her sleeves and chased after her.

"Shen Xia, what do you think about this matter?" Liu Yan opened his hands, waited for the palace maid to come forward to change his clothes, and saw that Chu Shenxia was slow to speak, so he sent the palace maid, and while dressing, he asked, "Can you talk about it now?" ”

Chu Shenxia saw that there was no one in the hall, so he sat down, met Liu Yan's surprised expression, and quipped: "This is what you asked me to be casual, have you forgotten?" ”

Liu Yan also laughed, lowered his head and straightened his clothes and said: "I haven't forgotten, I, you and Gelchacha's son kowtowed ninety-nine eighty-one heads in front of Gao Xuanzu's tablet, and since then they have become brothers of the opposite sex, and you two have promised to follow me to the death in this life, and they will never have two hearts." ”

"That's right, everyone is a brother, so it's not formal, you can eat a little, if you don't eat, you don't have to go out of the palace to check the thieves for a while." Chu Shenxia picked up a bowl of porridge sent by Banrong, and the entrance only felt silky and smooth, which was very unique.

Liu Yan sat down opposite him, also picked up a bowl of porridge, and took a bite before saying: "I think it's very good that you are like this, you always looked like a strategist before, and you were very angry." ”

Chu Shenxia scooped the porridge with a spoon, and a little white smoke flew out, and after blowing it away, he poured all the porridge into his mouth in one bite, wiped his mouth with satisfaction, and said: "I think Your Highness really has no reason to go out today, you see how many texts need to be dealt with by His Highness, I don't think it's easier to deal with these than to find thieves." ”

Liu Yan's gaze couldn't help but fall on the pile of official documents behind him, he sighed silently in his heart, and said helplessly: "Okay, then this matter will be handed over to you, I believe you will not let me down." ”

Chu Shenxia nodded, and reached out to take the sword on the table, but Liu Yan held it firmly with his hand, looked at him puzzledly, but heard him say: "Since we have all worshiped brothers, then you will not be called by His Royal Highness in the future, just call me Zishun." ”

"Good!" Chu Shenxia responded, took the sword while he removed his hand, and ran outside quickly, "Your Highness, I'll leave first." ”

The carriage shook very much, and Banrong couldn't stabilize herself several times, and threw herself into Chu Shenxia's arms, her face became redder and redder every time, and she even regretted a little why she had to follow her just now.

Chu Shenxia ignored her embarrassment, grabbed her arm with one hand, ensuring that she would not suddenly bump into herself, while lifting the curtain, and said in a low voice: "The road here is not easy to walk, I originally planned to come on horseback, but then I thought of you, or changed to a carriage, I am not in a hurry, I am afraid that I will bump you on the way." ”

"Huh? I'm fine. Seeing him turn around, Banrong hurriedly turned his face sideways, and hid his embarrassment by looking at the scenery outside the car window.

"What do you see coming?" Chu Shenxia saw that she was looking so attentively, guessing that she had noticed something, so he hurriedly leaned his head next to her and looked at it carefully.

But outside the window, except for the trees, they are still trees, and these trees are all about the same, and he noticed that the aura of the people next to him was a little chaotic, and asked casually, "What's wrong with you?" Uncomfortable? ”

"It's fine." The sound in her ears was smaller than that of a mosquito, and Chu Shenxia was about to turn her face to look at her, but she only had time to see her sit on the other side, sitting in exactly the same posture as Fang Cai.

"I'll see if there's anything unusual over here, just keep an eye on that side."

Chu Shenxia felt that she was very strange today, but she couldn't say what was strange, she just was slightly distracted for a moment, and then focused her attention outside the window, what was there outside the car window that was worth staring at like this?!

A flock of birds suddenly flew out of the forest in the distance, and the movement was very loud, accompanied by a loud and desolate voice-"Cuckoo cuckoo, cuckoo cuckoo." ”

Chu Shenxia was stunned, his brain was running fast, he reacted suddenly, lifted the curtain, and said loudly: "Quick!" Go to the valley! Fast! ”

Banrong was stunned by his movement, and wondered: "What's wrong?" What do you really see? ”

"I'm not watching, I'm listening, you listen, it's better to go back than to go, isn't this a sub-rule cry? Zigui likes to eat rice, and it must have been those people who hid the grain in the valley, which attracted Zigui. ”
