On the seventh day of the fifth month, early in the morning.

The sun has just sprinkled on the mountain road, the birds have not been noisy, the flowers have not woken up, the cars and horses are clustered, and the people have not walked.

Chi Tang sat in the car, leaned on Tsing Yi's arms, and said goodbye to the girls gathered in front of the car one by one.

"Do you have to go?" Lu Zishan asked with red eyes.

Chi Tang nodded and said angrily: "As the crown princess, I should be the king of the country and do my best!" ”

As soon as she said this, the girls around her looked at her as if they had seen a ghost, just like the expression on his face when Manchao Wenwu looked at him after his father said this last night.

When the emperor proposed to let her go to the army last night, seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was about to speak out against it, his father took the first step to express his gladly acceptance-

"As the crown princess, the little girl should be the king of the country and do her best!"

Chi Tang estimated that no one present should believe his nonsense.

The emperor didn't believe it either.

At that time, the emperor's face changed back and forth, and he almost confiscated his life.

Then Mr. Lu, Mrs. Xie and others also expressed their support, and the matter was decided.

However, because she was injured, she managed to leave this morning.

Daddy left as soon as he left the palace last night.

After Lu Zishan was shocked, he was still worried: "You are a girl, you want to go to such a dangerous place...... What's wrong with asking Uncle Chi to wait? Is it such a night's time? ”

Chi Tang said implicitly: "The military situation is urgent......

The urgency of the military situation is real, but it was indeed very urgent last night.

Daddy left the palace, and he was urged to leave before he had time to explain anything.

Along with him, there was no time to explain anything, as well as Li Xi, the king of Liang, as if they had been driven away.

Lu Zishan sighed and said: "I always think that there is nothing good after you know the prince, think about the six years you have been in Wu County, you have not even broken a piece of skin, you have just been named the crown princess, you have to suffer like this, you used to be afraid of pain, you were pricked by a needle and did not bleed and cried, now that everyone is like this, you have to force your face to smile......

Speaking of sadness, Lu Zishan couldn't help but bow his head and wipe his tears.

Chi Tang caught a glimpse of the figure behind the crowd, and "groaned" in his heart, and hurriedly pushed Lu Zishan.

Lu Zishan was still unconscious: "I really wish you didn't want to be this princess-"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Chi Tang hurriedly shouted.

Lu Zishan's body stiffened, and he slowly turned his head.

After the crowd, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rode on a horse, his expression was cold and cold, and a pair of misty eyes fell on Chi Tang fixedly, without looking at her, and said lightly: "You come to send the crown princess, this intention, I have written it down." ”

The interested girl smiled and pulled the uninteresting ones away, leaving only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front of the carriage.

"I didn't force a smile...... Chi Tang explained embarrassedly, "I'm grown up and I'm not so afraid of pain." ”

He didn't speak, turned over and dismounted, walked to the front of the car, and glanced at Tsing Yi.

Tsing Yi got out of the car silently.

Chi Tang saw him get into the car, and then looked at the vast array of carriages and horses he brought, and couldn't help but ask cautiously, "Your Highness wants to go with me?" ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was silent for a moment, then suddenly took her into his arms and said in a low voice: "Gu still has to stay and personally supervise the ordnance, grain and grass, I can't accompany you...... Sorry ......"

Chi Tang was a little embarrassed, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I didn't mean that, I just wanted to say-" Pointing to the large string of carriages and horses, "What are these for?" ”

He glanced at it and said, "This is for you to take with you to eat on the road." ”

Chi Tang was speechless: "So many...... Could it be too much? ”

She cleaned up at her own house, there were already seven cars, Lu Zishan pulled a cart to eat, Du Rong pulled a cart over, and Xue Zheng was even more arrogant, and directly pulled three carts over.

But compared to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is still a small thing.

There's got to be-

Chi Tang roughly counted, at least a dozen cars, right?

"Not much," said His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, "the Crown Princess travels, as it should be." ”

"But if I carry so many things, will I be worried about thieves?" Chi Tang was a little worried.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince glanced out and said, "Li Shi will bring more people with you." ”

Chi Tang followed his gaze, and sure enough, he saw Li Shi, and the soldiers and horses behind Li Shi.

"Has Your Highness kept enough manpower for himself?" Chi Tang asked hurriedly.

The place she is going to is certainly not safe, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may not be much better to stay.

He first said "um", thought about it, and added: "Don't worry, Lone will not be in danger." ”

Then he commanded him to set off.

hugged her again and whispered: "It is also helpless for Chi Gong to go to the prison army, if you don't leave, you will definitely be taken into the palace as a hostage, once you enter the palace, I am afraid it will become Chi Gong's control, it is better to go out and be safer." ”

Chi Tang nodded: "I understand, Daddy is always good for me." ”

He also said: "Chi Gong is going here, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold the Luzi Pass in time, if the Turks break through the Luzi Pass, the battle line will be stretched, and it will be difficult for him to support it alone, so he must stay behind to transfer troops to support, as well as ordnance, grain and grass, there is no room for loss——"

"I know!"

Chi Tang heard the self-blame in his words, drilled into his arms, stretched out his hand, and wanted to wrap around his body.

But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked thin and slender, but her body was very wide, she couldn't ring it, so she could only wrap her arms around his neck instead.

"Daddy said that if a person really likes me and values me, he won't waste his business, he only knows how to play with me all day long, although His Highness is not with me, but everything he does is to protect me, I know it!"

She looked into his eyes and said seriously: "Your Highness, don't be sad, I will take care of myself, and when I come back, I will marry you!" ”

Li Yan touched her hair and touched her face, only to feel that there was nothing about this girl that he didn't love very much.

He choked for a long time, and said in a dumb voice: "When the new grain for the autumn harvest arrives, Gu will pick you up!" ”

Chi Tang didn't understand the connection, so he just bent his eyes and smiled: "Okay! ”

Li Yan couldn't help laughing, kissed her dimples, and said softly: "Lone sent you to Yijun, after Yijun, Li Shi will escort you to the west, the Luziguan area is too dangerous, you go to Lingwu County, which is the seat of Shuofang Jiedu Envoy, and it is also close to Wuwei County, so let Guo Liang bring troops over to help." ”

Chi Tang was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Is Luziguan dangerous?" Daddy brought one to Brother Zhan! ”

Li Yan stroked her back and said, "It's okay, last night Gu had already ordered five hundred elite soldiers to chase after Chi Gong, and the transfer orders for Hexi, Longyou, Hedong, and Henan have all been issued, with Chi Gong's skills, there will be no danger!" ”

"Hedong is not King Liang's territory? Will he send troops? Chi Tang asked.

Li Yan said: "It doesn't matter if you don't send troops, the Lone Association will successively transfer troops from other places." ”

Chi Tang nodded, and Chi asked, "Did King Liang come back with troops yesterday?" ”

"Five thousand elite soldiers, arrayed outside the valley."

Chi Tang gasped.

"It's okay, Lone and Chi Gong have already known." Li Yan said.

Chi Tang looked at him in surprise.

Li Yan smiled slightly and said, "Do you remember Wang Li of the Liang Palace?" ”

Chi Tang was even more surprised: "He secretly reported again?" ”

The last time King Liang asked to marry a shirt, it was a letter secretly sent by this Wang Li.

But last time it was related to shirts, what about this time?

"We haven't had direct contact with this man, and we don't know what he thinks." Li Yan said.

Chi Tang thought for a while and guessed: "Maybe it's Aiwu and Wu, after all, I'm very good with shirts!" ”

Li Yan laughed and said, "That Gu is really blessed by the crown princess." ”

Chi Tang grinned, rubbed it affectionately in his arms, and said coquettishly: "Your Highness openly resisted the decree yesterday, but it scared me!" It turned out that I had been prepared for a long time! ”

Li Yan hugged the girl in her arms, lowered her head and kissed her hair casually, and said softly: "Didn't you say that no one can snatch the lonely princess away." ”

Suddenly she remembered something, and threw herself on the inside of the carriage.

Li Yan hurriedly supported her upper body with his crossed arms, and the inside of his arm unexpectedly touched an incredible softness, and he was stunned.

Chi Tang quickly found what he was looking for from the baggage on the side, held it in front of him, and said proudly: "I brought the book with me!" ”

After speaking, I realized that something was wrong with His Royal Highness the Prince: "What's wrong with Your Highness?" ”

The light in the carriage was already darker, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eyes were deep and deep, looking a little creepy.

"It's nothing," His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, tightening his arms around her and holding her close to his arms, "I just think that Ah Tang has grown up......"

"I've grown up......" Chi Tang just muttered when he lowered his head and kissed him.

The separation is imminent, and how much affection and sweetness is not enough.

Chi Tang was closing his eyes to catch up, and suddenly, the carriage shook and stopped.

She opened her eyes and turned her face away, and was about to ask questions, when his kiss fell on the side of her face, which was a little hot, and then kissed down her chin.

Chi Tang snorted lightly and hurriedly pushed him.

But he tightened his arms around her waist and kissed her harder and harder.

Chi Tang was at a loss for what to do, and he trembled unconsciously.

At this time, Tsing Yi outside the car said: "Girl, it's a painting screen." ”

Picture screen?

Chi Tang pushed him again, he finally stopped his movements, hugged her hard, let go again, kissed her face gently, and lifted the curtain.

As soon as he walked to the front of the car, he saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also there, and he was busy giving salutes.

Chi Tang smiled at her and said, "Sister Du is also here to see me off?" ”

After the painting screen was recognized as a daughter by Du Niangzi, she did not change her surname Lu, but changed her surname Du with Du Niangzi, and her name was Du Ping.

Due to her embarrassing identity, the painting screen doesn't often come out and walk around, and Chi Tang rarely sees her.

But today Du Rong came to see her off, but the painting screen did not appear with Du Rong, but waited alone on the valley road, which was a little lonely.

After getting up, he said, "I'll go to Shuofang with the girl." ”

Chi Tang was stunned.

The painting screen looked at her pleadingly, and said, "Mother has already allowed me, and the girl has also allowed it, right?" ”

Chi Tang looked at her for a while and laughed: "That's really good! ”

The picture screen brought two carriages and joined the convoy to accompany them.

Li Yan lowered the car curtain, fished the girl who was trying to dodge back into her arms, and said: "She has a different identity now, although she follows, she can't serve you, and she picks a few palace maids from the East Palace for you." ”

Chi Tang saw that he didn't come again, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I don't lack people to serve, but when I don't have the energy, I lack someone who can make decisions for me, now it's okay, the painting screen and Xia Hui are here, I can sit back and relax!" ”

Xia Hui came over with his baggage last night.

After the accident in the Zhou family, Xia Hui quit Chitang and went back to take care of his brother.

When she came back this time, Chi Tang didn't ask her about Zhou Yi, but only happily kept her down.

But she was still very curious about Zhou Yi's situation, and now that she thought about it, she asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by the way.

"Zhou Yi caught the person sent by the concubine to deliver the message to King Zhao," Li Yan said, "That person confessed, the night before yesterday, the concubine sent him to tell King Zhao about the murder of Mingjing, and asked King Zhao and the Gao family to join forces, seize military power, create chaos, and take the opportunity to kill Gu." ”

Chi Tang gasped and said, "Is it true that King Zhao rebelled? ”

She always thought that they were planning to frame King Zhao!

"Judging from the evidence provided by Zhou Yi, it seems to be true." Li Yan said.

Chi Tang glanced at him suspiciously.

Seems to be true?

"In addition to the confession of the little chamberlain, His Majesty also searched for some things that exceeded the regulations in the palace of King Zhao, as well as the correspondence between King Zhao and his foreign ministers, many of which were ambitious."

And then what?

Chi Tang still looked at him suspiciously.

Li Yan said: "Zhou Yi drove with him to escape the summer, and His Majesty did not give him a mansion, but borrowed it from King Zhao's mansion. ”

Chi Tang was stunned and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean, Senior Brother Zhou forged evidence?" ”

Li Yan shook his head: "I don't know, King Zhao's rebellion is not entirely proved by the evidence provided by Zhou Yi, but it is spelled out by one person and one sentence——"

"According to Chi Gong, Zhang Tingshi colluded with Gao Hun and wanted to persuade him to be loyal to King Zhao together, otherwise he would hold you hostage, Chi Gong claimed to be loyal and unwilling to give in, so he killed Zhang and Gao and went back to Chi Mansion to save you;"

"According to what you said, King Zhao's soldiers surrounded the Chi Mansion in order to hold you hostage and make the Chi Gong submit, and Mr. Lu confirmed that King Zhao did surround the Chi Mansion and do something to you;"

"And the little chamberlain captured by Zhou Yi proves that King Zhao communicates with the harem and listens to the inner court;"

"One person and one sentence, spelling out the outline of King Zhao's rebellion, will make His Majesty suspicious, as for the products and letters found later, it will only appear after His Majesty suspects King Zhao."

Chi Tang reminisced for a while, a little amazed.

However, just like this, the emperor was impressed by Zhou Yi?

"Zhou Yi said that the words that the concubine gave to King Zhao were to let King Zhao kill Chi Gong, and did not mention solicitation."

Chi Tang changed color: "He betrayed my father!" ”

"It's not a betrayal," Li Yan said, "It's just that this sentence proves that he has no connection with Chi Gong, and then he didn't stand up to stop His Majesty from abolishing the crown princess. ”

When the Zhongshu Sheren was ordered to draft an edict, they could refuse to draft an edict when they encountered an unreasonable edict.

Yesterday, if Cui Jiu drafted an edict and heard this, even if he didn't object, he would have stopped writing and would write it when they had a result.

But Zhou Yi wrote without hesitation, which made the emperor particularly satisfied.

Chi Tang shuddered suddenly.

Zhou Yi stepped on the Gao family and her on the throne, what do you want to do next?

She didn't dare to think about it.

Li Yan shook her hand and said, "Lone plans to release Zhou Yi so that he doesn't go mad." ”

Chi Tang let out a "hmm", leaned into his arms, and asked softly, "How far is Yijun?" ”

Li Yan unfolded her palm, interlocked her fingers, and said, "There is still an hour." ”

She fell silent.

Li Yan looked down at her, his head resting on his heart, his body nestled in his arms, and his posture was well-behaved and supple.

He suddenly remembered what Lu Zishan said just now, and asked, "Does the injury still hurt?" ”

"It hurts." Her tone was delicate.

Li Yan was stunned and suddenly rejoiced.

The girl raised her face in his arms, blinked, blushed again, and whispered: "It doesn't hurt for Your Highness to kiss me......"

……

"I might be bumped along the way......"

……

"Thinking about His Highness will give you a headache if you think too much......"

……

"Does Your Highness think I'll hurt?"

……
