Chapter 1: The Danger of Cloud Peak
"General An, after the Yunfeng in front, it is Xichu." The deputy general looked at the precipitous cloud peak in front of him, and there was always a feeling of uneasiness in his heart.
An Ping turned around and looked at the Heqin delegation behind him, after more than a month of tiring travel, everyone's faces were a little tired. An Ping's gaze fell on the gorgeous carriage in the center of the procession, and the people sitting in it seemed to be so quiet forever, as if the outside world had nothing to do with her.
An Ping couldn't help but clench the reins, he looked at the deputy general, and ordered in a deep voice: "Pass the order, Yunfeng is in danger, let everyone raise their spirits, you must pay more attention." He paused, "The Western Chu army is stationed outside Yunfeng, and after Yunfeng, we can also rest assured a little." ”
This time, the harmony between Dongxia and Western Chu cannot be careless, Lin Wanyang, the princess of Dongxia Zhenguo, and Wen Zhiyu, the prince of Western Chu, are too involved, and they are far from being as simple as they seem on the surface. In the past month or so, An Ping has led the Heqin delegation to protect Lin Wanyang all the way, and he is cautious and cautious, and he must not let Lin Wanyang have an accident.
After Yunfeng, it is the army of Western Chu who came to respond, and Anping can breathe a sigh of relief at that time, after all, people have already arrived in Western Chu. If something happens again, it will be unfavorable for Xichu.
The Heqin envoy slowly approached Yunfeng, the wheels of the carriage rolled over a stone and jolted, and the accompanying palace maid Su Yue hurriedly asked, "Princess, are you okay?" ”
"Nothing." The voice coming from the carriage was a little cold, and Su Yue didn't dare to say more, so she only asked the groom to pay more attention.
In the carriage, the woman sat firmly in a red dress, she was not wearing the wedding dress when she left the palace that day, but the clothes prepared for her on the way were all luxurious red clothes, although not as good as the phoenix crown and xia veil, but it was also very in line with her identity as the princess of Zhenguo.
There is no doubt that Lin Wanyang is beautiful, her complexion is very white, just like a person who has not seen the sun all year round, and she is a little abnormally white. The eyebrows are like Yuandai, a pair of eyes are like the dazzling glass, at a glance, I feel clean and pure, a very beautiful nose, lips are not dotted and red, and it looks more dignified and noble under the background of gorgeous pearls and palace clothes.
Since the moment she walked out of the imperial city, Lin Wanyang has always maintained such no sorrow and no joy, just like the most exquisite porcelain doll in the world, although exquisite but without any feelings.
For such Lin Wanyang, the palace maid who served her personally did not dare to say a word. These palace maids all knew in their hearts that if they went to Western Chu, they were afraid that Lin Wanyang would not be able to return to Dongxia in this life. Under such circumstances, how can Lin Wanyang's mood be good?
But from the moment she approached Yun Feng, Lin Wanyang's mood seemed to fluctuate a little, she had a natural alertness to danger, and when the Heqin delegation entered Yun Feng, Lin Wanyang became more and more restless, as if something was about to happen.
Slowly, Lin Wanyang closed her eyes, her hands on her knees moved slightly, her index finger tapped rhythmically, and on the tenth stroke, Lin Wanyang suddenly opened her eyes. At the same time, there was a sound of fighting outside, and countless arrows were fired at the Heqin Mission.
"Protect the princess, protect the princess ......"
Lin Wanyang heard the roars of the soldiers, the screams of the palace maids, and the sound of sharp blades and arrows piercing into the body...... She didn't move, even though countless arrows were fired at the carriage, all of which seemed to have nothing to do with her.
It will be over soon, Lin Wanyang calculated in her heart, she knew that the other party was prepared, and the pro-envoy would not last long, especially in this extremely difficult cloud peak.
Just then, she heard the sound of horses' hooves approaching, and many people were rushing towards her.
"It's the Western Chu reinforcements that have arrived!" I don't know who shouted, a trace of surprise flashed in Lin Wanyang's eyes, did the Western Chu reinforcements come so quickly? Or, have they been waiting here?
However, in Yunfeng, even if the Western Chu reinforcements arrive, I'm afraid it will take a stalemate for a while.
When the Western Chu soldiers came to support the Eastern Xia and pro-embassy and fought with those who had been ambushed here in advance, a young general of Western Chu rode a horse and rushed to the carriage where Lin Wanyang was.
He did not dare to delay, quickly dismounted, and opened the door of the carriage, he had expected to see a panicked princess. But when he opened the car door, he still saw Lin Wanyang sitting in the carriage, and there was not even a trace of panic in her eyes, in such a situation, she was quiet and terrible.
"The last general, Xichu Mengling, came to meet the princess." Meng Ling didn't have time to think about it at all, he stretched out his hand and wanted to take Lin Wanyang away.
Lin Wanyang looked at him along Meng Ling's outstretched hand, he was wearing the most ordinary armor, the armor was stained with blood, and even his face was splashed with a little blood, but this did not damage his appearance at all, but added a bit of bewitchment to his already handsome face, Lin Wanyang first noticed him was those eyes, dark brown eyes full of determination.
Lin Wanyang has seen all kinds of people, but no one has ever made her feel an innate perseverance, even if the young general named Meng Ling in front of her grovels to you, you don't dare to have the slightest contempt for him. Such a person is born arrogant, but he is self-contained, and he can never be just an unknown young general.
Even if he is unknown now, he will be a generation of famous generals in the future!
Seeing that Lin Wanyang didn't move, Meng Ling couldn't help but stretch her hand forward: "Princess? ”
Lin Wanyang put her hand in Meng Ling's palm, Meng Ling found that Lin Wanyang's hand was cold, and she thought about it, no matter how calm she was, she was always scared in her heart.
Meng Ling didn't think about it, grabbed Lin Wanyang's hand and pulled her out of the carriage, took her on the horse, and killed her.
The target of these thieves was Lin Wanyang, and when he saw Meng Ling fleeing with Lin Wanyang at this moment, he naturally tried his best to catch up, and An Ping hurriedly led people to stop these thieves and protect Lin Wanyang and Meng Ling from Yunfeng.
An arrow shot diagonally, Lin Wanyang turned sideways slightly, the arrow grazed the pearl cui between her hair buns, the pearl cui fell to the ground, her hair was scattered, she was about to fall off the horse along the arrow, Meng Ling pulled her into his arms, originally he didn't dare to protect Lin Wanyang in his arms because of the defense of men and women, but what happened just now made Meng Ling no longer care about anything else, and he desperately protected Lin Wanyang in his arms.
"Rest assured, Princess, the last general will definitely protect you and take you out of Yunfeng safely!" Meng Ling's voice sounded above Lin Wanyang's head, with a power that made people trust. Lin Wanyang's eyes, which were originally like waveless ancient wells, seemed to ripple, and then calmed down again.
Meng Ling's side has obviously become a target, no matter how powerful he is, there are still people who have taken advantage of the loophole and stabbed the spear at Lin Wanyang, Meng Ling subconsciously went to block the spear, and the spear pierced his shoulder.
Lin Wanyang felt blood splashed on her face, hesitated for a moment, and then snatched the sword in Meng Ling's hand and picked up the spear with her backhand. Meng Ling was shocked by Lin Wanyang's movements, but she didn't expect that she actually had a little martial arts, and then held Lin Wanyang's hand holding the sword, and slashed through the neck of the thieves who had been following them, and the thieves fell to the ground, Meng Ling took Lin Wanyang and ran into the forest on horseback, which temporarily threw off the people behind her.
Those people obviously didn't expect that Meng Ling would really run away with Lin Wanyang and be about to catch up, but An Ping and the Xichu soldiers had already rushed up to fight with them again.
"The princess of Dongxia Zhenguo, if she really doesn't let her eyebrows go." Meng Ling praised.
Lin Wanyang's tone carried a hint of sarcasm: "I didn't expect that it was actually the soldiers of Xichu who saved me in the end." ”
"You are going to marry our prince of Xichu, and you will be regarded as our Xichu people in the future." Meng Ling replied, "As a soldier of Western Chu, the last general naturally wants to protect you. ”
Lin Wanyang looked around: "Do you recognize the road?" ”
"At that time, I could only venture into the forest, but the last general had explored the terrain before, and after passing this forest, I could get out of the cloud peak, and it was also a road." Lin Wanyang heard the weakness of Meng Ling's tone.
"You're injured, let's get some rest." Lin Wanyang proposed.
"No, it's better to leave Yunfeng first." As soon as Meng Ling finished speaking, his eyes were dark, and he fell directly to the side, but Lin Wanyang grabbed him in time.
Lin Wanyang looked at Meng Ling who was unconscious, frowned, and finally decided to find a place to heal him first.
