Chapter 122: Prince Charming Appears?
Song Yi was in the carriage, although he was not handcuffed and shackled, but he was closely monitored by Huodu's people.
Xianglian and Chunxiang around her were very nervous, almost to the point of trembling.
Song Yi didn't want to scare the two little girls, so she was anxious in her heart, and she no longer showed it in front of the two of them.
They've been on the road since they came out of Blackwater. Huo Du must have received an order from Nuhachi, and he hurried all night without stopping.
However, because Linna has always been with Song Yi.
Song Yi still tried his best to extract some information from Linna's mouth.
Maybe Linna regarded Song Yi and them as turtles in the urn, and she didn't think about hiding it. Song Yi casually slipped her a sentence or two, and Linna said it all.
The news revealed by Lina reassured Song Yi a little, it turned out that Jiang Geng was not arrested, and when the people from Huodu went to the pawnshop to arrest people, they had already gone to the empty building, and the shopkeeper and his companions were nowhere to be found.
Song Yi felt a little relieved, thinking that after he successfully connected with Jiang Geng in the pawnshop that day, Jiang Geng secretly sent someone to protect Song Yi.
Although these are Song Yi's own guesses.
Later, Song Yi was placed under house arrest by Huo Du, Jiang Geng should have known it as soon as possible, and with him having been engaged in latent work for so long, it was not difficult to guess that the matter was revealed, so he quickly evacuated.
As for where Jiang Geng went? Did you escape Blackwater? Song Yi didn't know, but she was sure that the news that she was in the Jurchen territory must have been transmitted back to Kyoto.
When the true king saw Jiang Geng's news and his own token, he should believe it, right?
Song Yi is also anxious now, the exposure of her identity is a small matter, but if she is taken as a hostage and poses a threat to the Qianchao, then her sin will be great.
Song Yi's current identity is relatively special, it can be said that he has a dual identity, one is the emperor's daughter-Princess Anle, and the other is the fiancée of the true king-the real princess.
The former is related to the face of the royal family of the Qian, the princess was captured by the enemy country, even if it is a folk princess, it is a big matter.
And the latter is even more involved in the whole body.
It turned out that the reason why the Zhenwangfu was able to stand firm in the Qianchao Dynasty was not only because of the emperor's favor and trust, but also because the Zhenwangfu was a veritable royalist faction, and it provided the emperor with information about the whole world.
Of course, the emperor of the Qianzhao Dynasty had the concerts and military information of officials from all sides, but these were all things on the surface, and some of them were whitewashed, hoping that the emperor would hear or see the news. As the saying goes, the emperor is the most authoritative and the easiest to fool.
If you want not to be blinded and fooled by officials, the emperor will of course establish another channel for obtaining information, that is, an underground intelligence network.
or lurk in the enemy country as an undercover agent, or disguise yourself as a peddler and pawn to go deep into the people, or stand next to the court officials to obtain information, so that the emperor can grasp the news of everyone and the enemy country, so that he can know himself and the enemy.
And this organization is huge, and it requires meticulous work, the emperor naturally can't control the whole process, and needs trusted people to collect intelligence for him and grasp the dynamics of the court.
The true king of the Qianzhao Dynasty was the one who was responsible for training intelligence personnel and collecting intelligence for the emperor.
Such a confidential matter, of course the true king would not tell Song Yi. But who is Song Yi, through clues, guessed another identity of the true king.
Otherwise, how could those princes and Nuhachi have such a relationship with the movements of the True Palace?
Thinking of this, Song Yi was very discouraged. How could she be so good, fainted on the side of the road, anyone could save her, why was she saved by the Jurchen envoy Huo Du? This is undoubtedly a sheep into the mouth of a tiger, and he sent it to the door as a hostage.
If he was taken hostage and threatened Zhu Xi with Nuhachi, he would be too guilty.
Song Yi was anxious, thinking about how to get out of trouble.
It's a pity that the people of Huodu are very vigilant, and since Song Yi left the city from Blackwater City, he has not found a chance to escape.
Until this morning, Linna appeared in front of Song Yi very excitedly, "True princess, there is still half a day away, and we will arrive in Moon City." When the time comes, my brother will hand you over to Lord Khan. In Khan's hands, you're probably not as comfortable as you are now. Lena really wants to know, are you scared now? ”
Song Yi looked up at Linna, and the person opposite seemed so familiar and unfamiliar.
The face is still the same as the original, and it is Song Yi's familiar beauty; But Linna's expression and tone of voice were completely different, and she was almost like someone she knew.
Along the way, Song Yi and Linna talked the most. But Song Yi didn't see Linna's true face for the first time.
This is undoubtedly a major blow to Song Yi, who thinks he is very good at observing words and feelings.
"Linna, thank you for your concern. But I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed, I'm sure I won't enter Moon City with you."
"What? Do you still think someone is going to come to your rescue? Lina sneered, looking at Song Yi's eyes like an idiot.
"Someone will definitely come to save me" Song Yi didn't want to show his cowardice in front of Linna, and deliberately said loudly.
"Hehe, haven't you given up until now? This is the territory of the Jurchen Kingdom, and we are about to arrive in Moon City, who will come to save you? Do you think that the true king will risk entering the Jurchen territory for the sake of your wife, who has not passed through the door? Do you really think you are so important? ”
Song Yi didn't refute it, although she herself thought that this possibility was very small.
If he was in Blackwater City at the time, his identity was not revealed, and there was still a possibility of escape.
Now that "people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat", will the real king still take risks for her?
Song Yi thought negatively, if he faced torture, would he bear it and tell his secret? Still, to avoid being forced to confess by words and deeds, just confess directly. After all, she is not really a member of the Qianchao.
Song Yi was in a daze when a rumbling sound came from the horizon in the distance.
Huo Du also jumped down from the carriage and looked into the distance.
"What's going on? Who's coming there? Huo Du asked.
One of the scout creeps came up and said, "Oh no, sir. Suddenly there was a group of men and horses in front of us, about twenty or thirty people, which seemed to be coming towards us"
Huo Du was uneasy, the direction of the person coming was from behind them, and it was definitely not the person from Yuecheng who came to pick them up.
"Be careful," Huo Du ordered.
This time, for safety, he disguised himself as a caravan, took Song Yi's three masters and servants, and walked lightly all the way.
There weren't many people with him, less than a hundred.
Twenty or thirty people suddenly appeared, and it was not clear whether they were friends or foes. Huo Du always felt that the comer was not good, so it was better to prepare in advance.
On the one hand, Huo Du gathered his own people, and on the other hand, he secretly sent people to light wolf smoke and report to Yuecheng.
Soon, the team of twenty or thirty people arrived in front of Huo Du.
Huo Du saw that the other party was masked and dressed in a strong suit, obviously coming prepared. Visually, there are about 30 people, all of whom are Jurchen costumes.
Seeing this, Huo Du felt a little relieved. As long as it's not from the Qianchao Dynasty, it's fine. Huo Du thought so.
This is less than a hundred miles away from Moon City, and although it is very close to Moon City, there are often horse thieves. The grassland is open all around, there is no place to hide, if you encounter a horse thief, you will either fight or ruin your fortune to avoid disaster, and you will consider yourself unlucky.
The caravans that come and go are often robbed, and these horse thieves generally retreat quickly after grabbing the spoils of war, and never love to fight, so the government is also very tricky, and it is difficult to capture these black sheep.
The enemy advances and retreats, and the enemy retreats and disturbs me, and the horse thieves gradually grow, and the soldiers and horses are strong, which has become a great scourge. No wonder Khan has always wanted to catch all these horse thieves, Huo Du thought.
Huo Du thought it was an ordinary horse thief, so he was not as nervous as he was just now.
"Who's coming?" Huo Du asked the visitor in Jurchen.
The leader of the other party, at the front of the line, riding a very coquettish white horse, also replied in Jurchen language.
Song Yi didn't understand what they were talking about, at this moment, she was in the carriage, and she could look at the group of people from afar.
Although there were only a few dozen people on the other side, they were all ten strong and strong, and the leader was a tall man riding a white horse.
Although he was masked, he seemed to be thinner than his muscular subordinates behind him.
A pair of sharp eyes searched the crowd until they met Song Yi's eyes, and then they showed a smile of unknown meaning.
Song Yi felt that the other party's eyes were familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he finally knew the identity of the other party, and he was ecstatic.
It's just that she is confined in the carriage at the moment, and there is Linna by her side to watch, so she doesn't dare to show it.
Song Yi lifted the curtain again, looked at the man riding a white horse, and showed a satisfied smile in his eyes, "As the saying goes, people rely on clothes", this person riding a white horse is not necessarily a prince, maybe it is......
