The days of eating and waiting for death always fly by.

In the blink of an eye, after February, everything recovered, and the weather gradually warmed up.

Rong Hao has gradually accepted the fact that he is a broken sleeve, and Su Xia, the broken sleeve deity, eats and drinks well every day, and his small belly has grown a circle of meat.

"Su Xia, don't eat and drink in the mansion every day. My father gave me a task, saying that there was a tip-off report on the outskirts of Beijing, and Di Guo was infested with spies, and I was now the commander of the forbidden army, and I had the obligation to investigate one or two. Do you want to go with me, it just so happens that the wind and the sun are beautiful, you should go to the green. Rong Hao approached her and tugged at her hair.

Su Xia was wrapping a piece of shortbread in her mouth, her little head turned around, and she said inarticulately: "Lord Wang, this task seems to be very dangerous. Will I be cut if I go? ”

Rong Hao leaned half of his body on the table in front of Su Xia, supporting his chin, "You don't have to worry about this, the wire report said that there are only a dozen spies on that Zhuangzi, and I will bring fifty elite soldiers over this time, it will definitely be no problem." We'll just wait for the good news in the back. ”

"Okay then, I'll go on a run with you." Su Xia weighed the danger and nodded. I feel a little bitter in my heart, and I don't have a salary, and I have to do this kind of dangerous work, and the eunuch is so hard.

Gonggong Li stood on the side, the corners of his mouth twitching. In the past, the prince carried himself everywhere, but now it is good, his position has been completely occupied by this little eunuch. The old man will also be jealous, okay.

Everything was in an orderly deployment, Rong Hao summoned a map of Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, and pointed around Zhuangzi, "You see, when the time comes, fifty elite soldiers, each in a group of ten, will be scattered around Zhuangzi. There were ten people left, five of them followed me, and five of them stood guard outside the Zhuangzi. If the situation changes, ventilate it promptly. This time we are bound to win. ”

All the henchmen nodded, and individuals contributed some of their own opinions. On the morning of the second day, he walked on the dew and marched to the outskirts of Beijing.

This time, because of the special task, I didn't sit in a carriage anymore and changed to horseback riding. Su Xia had never ridden a horse before, and when she saw the animal that was taller than herself, she wanted to ride it, and she panicked.

The soldiers saw the little eunuch wearing riding clothes, and muttered to the horse, "Brother Ma, I will ride you in a while, you have to give me some face, if you fall down, your ribs will be broken." I'll feed you delicious alfalfa grass when I get back. Ma didn't appreciate it and snorted at her. She was squirted and took a step back. The soldiers all laughed, after all, it was rare to see such a funny scene in the barracks.

Su Xia had a dark face, turned around, and crossed his hands on his waist, "What are you laughing at, isn't it embarrassing to not ride a horse?" No, get me a donkey, the donkey is short, I can ride it. "The more I talk about it, the less confident I have.

This is Rong Hao coming out of the house, seeing Su Xia at the door with a helpless look, he thinks it is super cute, and there is Xi Shi in the eyes of his lover.

He patted Su Xia on the shoulder, "Don't you know how to ride a horse?" ”

Su Xia was very cowardly, and nodded without even thinking about it. There was another burst of laughter behind him.

I thought that Rong Hao, like this group of soldiers, would laugh at her loudly. But Rong Hao held her hand and said gently: "Don't be afraid, you ride with this king, and this king protects you." ”

He got on a batch of black horses with a sharp posture, stretched out his hand and dragged it, Su Xia only felt that the sky was spinning for a while, and he was already sitting on the back of the horse. She grabbed the horse's mane in fear of death, and lay down on the horse's back, not daring to move. Rong Hao gently broke her hand, held it in the palm of his hand, and held the reins together. "Don't be afraid, rely on this king, this king will teach you to ride a horse."

Su Xia blushed, so many people, is it really okay for me to be like this? They are all adults, and some things are better to hide and do them.

The soldiers behind him all felt a burst of tooth soreness, when did the unruly prince of his own family become so gentle and considerate, it was really a eunuch who changed a man, no wonder his mother-in-law was a nymphomaniac at their words every day. Even a big man thinks, well, it's really good.

The horses' hooves were bursting, and the group rode towards the outskirts of the city.

Out of the city gate, the grass grows and the warbler flies along the way, which is completely different from the scenery in the city.

If the inside of the city is a hundred views of the south of the Yangtze River, then the outside of the city is definitely a primitive agricultural society. On the side of the long road, the faint green grass has not yet grown into a green form, and it is pitiful. The willow branches are clinging, dotted with emerald willow leaves. Pear blossoms and cherry blossoms complement each other in the distance. It's a good time on earth.

Su Xia leaned on Rong Hao's arm, and someone was not afraid of sitting on horseback.

Rong Hao held her little hand and took her to hold the reins together. The horse's hooves are sloppy.

In less than half a day, they arrived at their destination.

It's a very remote location, halfway up the mountain. The green bricks of Daiwa can be faintly seen in the trees. stopped about five hundred meters away from Zhuangzi, made a gesture, jumped off the horse with Su Xia in his arms, and everyone turned over and dismounted with him. These horses are all good horses domesticated by the imperial horse division in the palace, and after listening to the order, they immediately withdrew and found a place to graze.

According to the previous arrangement, the fifty people were divided into six groups and lurked towards Zhuangzi.

It was quiet along the way, and the silence was frightening. Su Xia participated in this kind of activity for the first time, her nervous palms were sweating, Rong Hao held her hand and squeezed it gently, as if to say, don't be afraid, I am here.

Everyone quietly walked to Zhuangzi, Rong Hao took Su Xia and five relatives to climb over the wall and enter, and everyone dispersed. But when I went in, I realized that something was wrong.

Zhuangzi is very large, and there are many tables and chairs in the open air in the courtyard, Rong Hao blocked it, and secretly said in his heart that it was bad, looking at the number of tables and chairs, there must be more than ten people. And he always had the feeling of being watched, like a prey being watched by a cheetah, coming out of the house in the yard.

The hairs on Rong Hao's back stood up, hurry up!

Before he could make the next order, the windows and doors of the house opened, and many arrows were shot from the room. Seeing that their prince was in danger, the five cronies who followed him blocked Su Xia and Rong Hao with their bodies and made human shields.

Blood splattered, Su Xia was splashed with blood all over her face, and her eyes widened in horror as she looked at Rong Hao. And at this moment, Rong Hao was also very embarrassed, he reached out and wiped the blood on his face, looked at the relatives who fell to the ground in front of him, gritted his teeth, and immediately pulled Su Xia to evacuate.

When they jumped over the wall and went out, they reached the outside of the courtyard. The remaining fifty or so people are already fighting outside the hospital. The forbidden army wore dark red brocade clothes, and the people who fought with them, although they were dressed as Han people, had typical Di facial features. And at a cursory glance, there are at least seventy or eighty Di people, and the number of people steadily suppresses Rong Hao and his party.

All the relatives and soldiers appeared as a prince, and they all moved closer to Rong Hao's side.

The circle of battle shrinks. Rong Hao said to one of the very young forbidden soldiers: "Monkey, you will take advantage of the time when everyone is fighting, take Su Xia away, go outside to report the news, and bring more people." ”

Before the monkey could reply, Su Xia grabbed Rong Hao's hand, "No, Lord Wang, I'm not leaving." "People sometimes can't see their hearts clearly, and Su Xia always feels that life is the most important thing on weekdays, but at this moment, Rong Hao's safety has overcome the fear of death in her heart.

She still had the blood splashed on her face before, and her tears washed out two traces, she clutched the corner of Rong Hao's clothes tightly, and never let go.

The young man named Monkey didn't know what to do anymore. Rong Hao saw Su Xia so resolute and pitiful, his heart softened, no one had ever relied on him so much for life and death.

He raised his hand and wiped Su Xia's face, "Okay, then we will be born together and die together." Then he turned to the monkey and said, "Quick, go quickly, the net worth and life of this king and his brothers are in your hands." ”

Everyone was still fighting, and Rong Hao also drew the saber at his waist and joined the forbidden army. The forbidden army saw that their prince was also fighting bravely to kill the enemy, and for a while, they were full of passion, killing Di people like chopping melons and vegetables.

Seeing the sword light and blood shadow, a loss flew over. Su Xia stood behind Rong Hao, and Rong Hao escorted her to break out. She heard the wind on the side, looked up, and subconsciously her body had already met it.

She grabbed Rong Hao, and the arrow shot through her shoulder blade.

Rong Hao turned his head and saw Su Xia's blood spurting out, and his face changed.

Su Xia seemed to have broken the thread and fell into Rong Hao's arms at once. Rong Hao grabbed her with his backhand, and at this time, the battle situation was urgent, and he didn't have time to check the injury. He threw Su Xia on his back, picked it up, and continued to break out.

The forbidden army protected Rong Hao, Rong Hao carried Su Xia on his back, and a group of people ran wildly all the way.

Before you know it, it's dark.

Rong Hao carried Su Xia on his back, and because there was no light, the forbidden army and Rong Hao were separated. In the dense forest in the mountains, only Su Xia on his back was gasping lowly.

Rong Hao turned his head sideways, looked at Su Xia's pale face, tilted his head over, and pressed his lips against her cheek.

He whistled, listened intently, and did not move. There was no sound of horses' hooves, and it seemed that the Di people had gotten the tip, and knew that they were going to encircle and suppress it today, and they had done a clean job and killed those horses in advance.

I don't know if the monkey ran out, if I remember correctly, there is a post station on the three mile road after going down the mountain, as long as the monkey can reach the post station smoothly, you can return to the capital before dark. At most, in the second half of the night, reinforcements will definitely be brought. The most important thing at the moment is to quickly find a place to rest and see how Su Xia's injuries are.

He looked around, all around him were dense forests, and the branches and leaves of the trees were not very lush in the spring of March. He walked through the layers of woods and found a cave hidden in the trees.

The cave is not very large and can accommodate the appearance of four people. He carefully put Su Xia down, his hand touched Su Xia's back, the wet touch, and he raised his hand to see the blood on his hand by the moonlight.

The prince's hand, who was killing people in the enemy bush like chopping vegetables and melons, shook his hand and shed so much blood, what should I do? He began to complain a little about himself, Su Xia obviously told him yesterday that he didn't want to come, and he had to force her to come, but he didn't even protect anyone, causing her to be so seriously injured.

He squatted in front of Su Xia and patted Su Xia's face gently, "Su Xia, Su Xia, can you hear me?"

In a daze, Su Xia opened his eyes. The moonlight was hazy, and she didn't see Rong Hao in front of her clearly, but when she heard Rong Hao's voice, she was inexplicably relieved. Thinking of her previous situation, she raised her weak hand and grabbed Rong Hao's sleeve. "I'm fine, don't worry about me, lord, you have to be careful, they have arrows."

Under the moonlight, her face was even paler. Because of the excessive blood loss, the lips were also dry and fierce.

Rong Hao saw that her face was full of anxiety and comforted her: "Su Xia, don't worry, this king is fine, this king is not injured." We are safe for the time being, and when the monkeys bring rescue, we can go back to Beijing. ”
