Chapter 611: The True King's Whereabouts
Gao Zixia's comfort did not relax Song Yi's nervous heart all the way. She knew that the True King had been missing for a month.
Today, life and death are still uncertain, which shows that the situation is not objective.
If the true king escaped, it should be time to send back the news of peace. But now, no one has his whereabouts. It can be seen that he is still not out of danger.
Song Yi was also not worried that Gao Yunjin and his son could really go all out to find the true king like themselves.
Although the true king is a messenger sent by the imperial court, but now, Youzhou City is worried about internal and external troubles, and there is no time to care. Perhaps, Marshal Gao did not give up looking for the true king, but he couldn't put all his mind on the true king like Song Yi.
Although Song Yi understands this, he is inevitably a little disheartened. If the true king hadn't solved the predicament of Youzhou City, he wouldn't have ventured into danger and been ambushed by others. Now, in order to keep the fortress of Youzhou City, he does not go all out to rescue the true king.
"Princess, don't worry too much. The true king will definitely be auspicious and return safely," Gao Zixia said.
"Thank you, General Gao" Song Yi nodded and didn't say much.
Gao Zixia saw that Song Yi's face was tired, and knew that she had rushed here in the dust, and she must not have had a good rest.
So, Gao Zixia said, "The princess must be tired all the way." Let's rest first."
After saying this, Gao Zixia turned around and left.
After Gao Zixia left, Song Yi did not rest. Instead, he called Jiang Geng and asked, "How is it?" Have you heard any news about your prince? ”
Jiang Geng said: "The subordinates have already contacted the brothers in the city. They have also been outside, inquiring about the whereabouts of the prince. However, there is still no definite news. However, it is rumored that the prince once appeared in Blackwater City"
"Blackwater? What did he go there for? When Song Yi heard the name of Blackwater City, he was in a trance. Back then, she was also taken to Blackwater City by the Jurchen Huo Du, and Song Yi found the secret code of the true king on the street, so she got in touch with Jiang Geng, who was lurking in the pawnshop in Blackwater City, and finally escaped from Huo Du.
Blackwater City was the last city before entering the Jurchen capital. Before the war between the two countries, Blackwater City had been a place of frequent trade between the two countries. Now, someone has seen the true king appear in Blackwater City?
I don't know if it was a smoke bomb that someone deliberately threw into the outside world, or if the real king was really hiding in Blackwater City?
"Is the message accurate?" Song Yi didn't want to let go of any possibility. Even if it's a rumor, it's like no news at all.
"Sure," Jiang Geng replied affirmatively. Blackwater, he was also familiar with it. Moreover, there have always been his spies lurking in Blackwater.
"That's good" Song Yi was a little relieved in her heart, as long as the true king was fine, she would be relieved.
"It's just that Jiang Geng has something to say," the news came out three days ago. Moreover, when the prince arrived in Blackwater City, he did not contact our people. Still, our people found out the code made by Xiao Hei. I knew that the prince was with him and arrived in Blackwater City. I don't know if the prince is not in Blackwater City now."
"Has Xiao Hei been with the prince all the time?" Song Yi heard that Xiao Hei was still alive, so he became more settled.
Song Yi knew that although Xiao Hei was very unreliable on weekdays. But like Jiang Geng, Xiao Hei is also loyal to the true king, and he is more concerned about the safety of the real king than anyone else.
"See, they showed up in Blackwater City three days ago. I believe that as long as we go there, we can get more news" Song Yi wanted to confirm the safety of the true king as soon as possible, and he couldn't wait to go to Blackwater City immediately.
"Princess, are you going too? Do you want to stay, Zhang De and I will go to Blackwater City"
"Yes, princess, let me go with Lord Jiang. You better stay here and take care of the prince," Zhang De echoed.
"No, I'm going with you" Song Yi shook his head and said firmly, "I finally know the whereabouts of the prince." How can you sit here obediently and wait for news? Besides, Blackwater, I've been there before. I am also familiar with the environment there. I'm not going to hold you back. Rest assured."
Song Yi's words, how can Jiang Geng and Zhang De refute them. It's just that they still think that it would be better for the real princess to stay. But they also know that the princess's character will never wait in Youzhou City.
"That's good," Jiang Geng gritted his teeth and said, "Princess, without further ado." I'm afraid that we'll be late, and the prince and they will change places again. ”
"Jiang Geng is right, then we will leave for Blackwater City early tomorrow morning," Song Yi nodded.
So, Jiang Geng and Song Yi divided into two ways. Jiang Geng and Zhang De went to investigate the situation in Blackwater City, while Song Yi had to arrange for his son Zhu Youde.
Although Blackwater City is a city where the two countries meet, it has always belonged to the three regardless of the lot. But now, the two countries are at war, and the atmosphere is very delicate. If one accidentally exposes his identity, he may lose his life at any time.
Jiang Geng and Zhang De are bold and bold, and they are already reluctant to bring Song Yi, and if they bring Zhu Youde again, it will only be more dangerous. Don't be at that time, the true king was not rescued, and they themselves collapsed in Blackwater City.
In the afternoon of the same day, Song Yi unsurprisingly met Marshal Gao.
Marshal Gao learned that the real princess had come to Youzhou City, so he temporarily put down his military affairs and rushed back to the marshal's mansion.
Song Yi didn't say anything embarrassing Gao Yunjin. Although she confirmed that Gao Yunjin did not protect the prince, she did not send troops to reinforce the prince at the first time. But now that the matter has come to this, Song Yi also knows that it is useless to say more.
Gao Yunjin was very calm, and there was no ambiguity about his mistakes. Even more bluntly, when the true king wanted to make a detour to the enemy's rear to attack the Jurchen grain and grass troops, he resolutely opposed it. However, the true king was obsessed with acting, and even cut first and then played, and left Youzhou City.
Song Yi believed that Gao Jinyun was not lying, because she also knew that the real king took such a risk to solve the food problem of the soldiers and people in the city. If there is also a problem with the Jurchen logistics and grass, the Jurchen soldiers must not be able to hold out for long. And the crisis in Youzhou City can also be temporarily resolved.
However, Song Yi didn't expect that the Jurchens were so capable, since they could know the true king's plan in advance. If there is no traitor, Song Yi will not believe it.
"Marshal Gao, everything else is your man's business. I'm a woman, I don't care, and I don't have the ability to solve it. But my lord obviously went out of the city secretly, but he was ambushed halfway, you have to give me an explanation for this matter anyway, otherwise, this princess will not give up"
Song Yi said with a cold face.
"What are you talking about? Could it be that we deliberately leaked the news to the Jurchens? ”
Suddenly, a gruff voice joined in.
Song Yi looked up and recognized who the other party was. Except for General Hu Desheng, who is next to Generalissimo Gao, who would speak like this?
"Desheng, don't be rude," Gao Jinyun scolded.
Song Yi watched Gao Jinyun and Hu Desheng sing and harmonize, smiled coldly, and did not speak.
