Chapter 141: Thrilling on the Road
Shen Yafei glanced at Xu Shizi fiercely: Don't you know that the clothes prepared by the mother concubine are very ostentatious?
Xu Shizi responded with a light smile: Of course I know, but this is also the mother's heart. Naturally, it is difficult for us to refuse.
Shen Yafei saw the concern in Princess Li's eyes, so she had to silently accept Princess Li's concern.
When Princess Pi heard Xu Shizi say this, she immediately came back to life, and the smile on her face was much warmer than the spring sun.
This trip to Wuzhou only has a few days to prepare. So on the third day, a word came from the palace that they were going to leave on the second day. If Shen Yafei hadn't prepared it in advance, let alone a medicine that could come in handy now, even ordinary herbs would be difficult to prepare.
Therefore, when the crown prince and King Ning heard that Shen Yafei was also going with her, and that she had prepared what she needed to treat the evil disease, their hearts stabilized.
Since Shen Yafei followed, Yan Lijun could naturally stay in the capital, after all, the prince was still in the capital, if there was anything to the prince, Yan Lijun could rescue him in time.
But after their analysis, Yan Lijun still had to go with King Ning. King Ning and the prince are the only ones with great medical skills, and if a doctor like Yan Lijun doesn't follow him to Wuzhou, it will make people suspicious, so in the end, the prince decided to let Yan Lijun go with him.
On the second day, the officials, who had been arranged to go to Wuzhou together, loaded the prepared things into the carriage and set off quickly. The officials didn't expect to see a female dependent in the team when they went to the city gate to round.
King Ning took Princess Ning to go because of the love Gu in King Ning's body, which is understandable. What everyone didn't expect was that Xu Shizi also took Shen Yafei with him. Wuzhou is such a dangerous place, even if the prince and the princess have a deep relationship, it is not shown in this kind of place? That's a human life, how could the prince of the world be willing to go with the princess? The officials who went with him were puzzled.
When the team first left the capital, the road was smooth.
It's been 20 days, and it's been calm all the way. On the twentieth day they departed early in the morning from the town where they had been staying, and went to another. However, the distance between the two cities is very long, and if you cross the mountains and mountains, you can reach them in a day. But the group of them went with a large number of goods, and the ladies were in horse-drawn carriages, so they could only walk on the ready-made roads. Therefore, it is impossible to arrive without two or three days.
So along the way, King Ning was worried, always worried that there would be an enemy attack. The people who accompanied him were also uneasy in their hearts. They can also vaguely understand in their hearts the treacherous journey to Wuzhou this time. They can also feel that this trip to Wuzhou is probably also specially arranged by someone with a heart, if not, how could they let King Ning go, originally King Ning's current body is not suitable for going out
, but the court appointed him.
This time they were ordered by King Ning himself, and none of the original people in this group were from King Lang's faction. But before the team set off, King Lang also recommended a confidant of his own, Lord Pei, to the emperor. Moreover, Master Pei's official positions are all in front of a bunch of them. The crown prince, King Ning and King Lang were rivals many years ago, and the emperor still made such an arrangement, I am afraid that he also had a certain amount of thought.
King Lang has really made a bloody investment, King Lang must want to take this opportunity to get rid of King Ning, right? This time, their greatest wish was that nothing would happen on the road between the two towns. The two towns are lined with densely wooded, rolling peaks, and this is the easiest place to ambush and assassinate. Officials have been worrying all day about losing their lives here.
"It's getting late, so we're camping here." It was almost dusk, and when the team reached a relatively flat place, King Ning got down from his horse and stood on the flat ground and said.
"Yes." All the wagons stopped, and people stepped out of them.
King Ning arranged for some people to go to the neighborhood to find water, while others camped on the spot. Most of these people came out of the barracks with King Ning, so these things were easy to do, and the camp was set up soon. Torches were planted around the camp, and the wagons and men were surrounded by fire. If the people present do not have the life of King Ning, no one can come near the torches. All the food and water were arranged by King Ning's people. If you break out against the order, you will be killed. 【*… ichi Literature om ...~ Better, newer and faster]
Some officials didn't believe it before, and in their hearts they felt that King Ning was just scaring and scaring people, after all, King Ning still wanted their group of people to go to Wuzhou to help him? How could they be put to death temporarily? So, an official privately instructed his subordinates to go outside and get him some water, but as soon as he was five steps closer to the outer ring, his head had already fallen to the ground. So in the days to come, no one dared to disobey King Ning's orders.
Not only are the vegetation lush in the mountainous area, but the animals are also fat and abundant. While looking for water, King Ning's people also hunted several prey, which was enough for their group to eat. At the same time, they also warmed the dry food they were carrying, and ate a full dinner. When they were all finished, the sunset slipped into the sky. The moon slowly rises from the side of the mountain. The sky slowly darkened, and King Ning ordered the torches to be lit. The light of the fire and the light of the moon in the sky made the camp quite bright.
At night, it is time for one to fall asleep. The masters went to sleep, and the guards took turns to watch the night. It was midnight when the people were sleeping soundly when the treetops in the distance to the right of the camp rustled. It was as if a wind was blowing, and waves surged up in the treetops, rolling towards the camp.
The guards of King Ning's Mansion faintly heard some movement from the night wind, and immediately woke up Prince Ning. In addition, someone was sent to wake up the others, and Shen Yafei and Xu Shizi quickly came out of the tent, because they had always slept in kimono.
Xu Shizi was tightly guarded in front of Shen Yafei, his eyes watched around vigilantly, and he said softly to King Ning beside him: "There are really a lot of people on the other side, it seems that the other party has made a bloody investment." Your life is worth a lot! ”
King Ning sneered: "It's not! This time they must have gone and never returned! ”
"Are you going to fight hard or do you have a clever plan?" Xu Shizi couldn't help but yawn, he hadn't stayed up late for a long time, and he was still a little unaccustomed. Xu has been too comfortable lately.
"Now, we still have King Lang's people here, so it's inconvenient to reveal too many of our secrets, so just use some ordinary poisons. This king thought that he should solve these people as soon as possible, so as not to have many dreams at night. But I don't know what method the other party will use? "King Ning thought about it for a while, it is still not suitable for hard fighting, many of the people on his side are not martial arts, and he has to send people to protect these people. Otherwise, when this thing is done, he will go back by himself, and his father may not know what kind of crime he will be charged! If you can't fight these people, you still have to use some tricks.
Ordinary poison? Shen Yafei's right eyebrow was raised upward, and he sniffed a few times, and the smell of poison in the air was still very pungent.
"Besides, now that there are people from King Lang in the team, I don't know what kind of tricks this Master Pei has prepared behind his back. Now it's the enemy on the back, and the enemy is hidden in the belly. It is better to deal with it as quickly as possible to avoid more trouble. King Ning added.
"Yes, this dog can't be killed yet, and it must be solved after arriving in Wuzhou. If we solve him now, King Lang will get another person to come over, and we will be even more troublesome. It's really troublesome, let's go to Wuzhou as soon as possible, we have to get rid of these dog things as soon as possible. Yan Lijun stood beside King Ning in a well-dressed manner.
"Hmm. That's right. Xu Shizi said with a wicked smile.
"King Ning, is this what happened? But, someone came. Master Tang climbed out of the carriage while wearing his belt, and as soon as he heard someone shouting to him just now, he immediately woke up, and hurriedly got up, and hurriedly put on his clothes, he was the first of the remaining people to come out.
"Lord Tang, you are standing over there, and there are people guarding you." King Ning pointed in the direction where there were more guards, that was what he had prepared for these weak people who didn't know martial arts, and these people were specially designed to protect these people.
Lord Tang looked at the emptiness around him, and then looked at the direction of King Ning's finger that was surrounded by guards, and Lord Tang immediately slipped over. The others who came out from behind saw Lord Tang standing in a safe area, and they obediently followed.
"Lord Wang, the lower official is with you." Master Pei said very considerately.
"Okay." King Ning replied very cheerfully.
Master Pei was immediately stunned, he was just casually meaningful, but he didn't expect King Ning to agree. Now he was stunned, standing next to King Ning was equivalent to standing next to the god of death, these people
But they all aimed their knives at King Ning. Master Pei really wants to slap his stinky mouth that is easy to get carried away when he is proud.
"Lord Pei is standing next to this king, it is rare for Lord Pei to have this heart, and it is not easy for this king to refuse." King Ning stood beside Master Pei in the blink of an eye.
Master Pei trembled with fright and collapsed to the ground.
King Ning glanced at him with contempt, and said disdainfully to the guards on the side: "Lord Pei is not in good health, you send him to that side to take good care, don't let Lord Pei have an accident." ”
"Yes." As soon as King Ning's voice fell, two guards came over and put Master Pei aside and guarded closely. Even if Master Pei has a conspiracy and wants to do it, he can't do it.
The voices in the bushes grew nearer and nearer, and suddenly there was silence.
"Kill!" Cheered. Hundreds of people flew out of the bushes, and the officials saw the black pressure in front of them, and their feet went limp.
The shouting was getting closer and closer, and when the people were about to reach the ring of fire, suddenly their movements slowed down, and they staggered inside, and after a while they fainted. Master Pei's eyes widened in disbelief.
The man in black in the back saw that his partner in front of him had fainted, and immediately soared from the spot and flew over the ring of fire. The man in black was about to fall into the ring of fire, and the official who was being guarded by the guards saw that the man in black was about to come to him, and immediately shrank up. Unexpectedly, as soon as the man in black fell to the ground, he immediately wailed, and the man in black either had something on his foot or a sharp object in his chest, and these people all covered their injuries and screamed. The screaming did not last long before it stopped, for the men became more and more pale as they screamed, and soon fell to the ground.
There were also some men in black who were lucky enough to avoid both traps, but were slashed by the guards as soon as they entered the ring of fire. Soon, the group of black-clothed people who were still shouting and killing just now finally turned into corpses. Master Pei saw the man in black under his feet slowly glaring and swallowing, and cold sweat dripped from his head.
After everyone was settled, King Ning said to everyone: "It's okay, let's continue to sleep." I'm going to go back early tomorrow morning! ”
At this time, everyone is still nervous, who can still sleep.
"King Ning, this place is too dangerous. Shall we continue on our way? Master Pei proposed tremblingly, and his eyes didn't dare to look directly at King Ning.
King Ning replied coldly, "What? Is Master Pei unwilling to obey the king's arrangement? If Master Pei is unwilling to obey the king's arrangement, he can go first. Now this king is tired, and this king needs to sleep. I don't send it! ”
Rushing at this time? Is it stupid to be the king of Thaning?
"No, it's not. Then the lower officials also went to sleep. Good night, prince. Master Pei immediately waved his hand and refused.
His task is to follow King Ning's side, and then find an opportunity to spread the news of King Ning, if he leaves his mission, how to complete it, he is alone
Since leaving, it doesn't make sense. Originally, when he went to Wuzhou this time, King Lang wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of King Ning, but he didn't expect that King Ning had already prepared for the first time. But fortunately, King Lang is only using this time to explore the way. There are so many opportunities along the way!
After Master Pei finished speaking, he immediately climbed back into his carriage. Seeing Master Pei's appearance, the others didn't need King Ning to speak, and they all obediently went back to sleep.
Shen Yafei and Xu Shizi returned to their tent and fell asleep quickly, and the next day they woke up in good spirits, while the others had a faint blue in their eyes. Yan Lijun and Ning Wang saw that Xu Shizi and Shen Yafei were in such spirits, and the feeling of guilt in their hearts that had affected them suddenly dissipated a lot.
The corners of Yan Lijun's eyes twitched a few times: This couple is really a natural couple, they are all so heartless, they can still sleep at this time. He and King Ning didn't sleep well last night, because they were worried that the enemy would attack again, but they didn't expect that these two people were good and not affected at all. Even when they were woken up last night, the two couples did not see any worry on their faces. How long are the hearts of these two couples, so wide!
"Let's go on our way after eating!" After everyone had a brief dinner, King Ning ordered everyone to set off immediately.
King Ning wanted to get to the next town as soon as possible, so that they wouldn't have to sleep in the open. If they continue to sleep in the open, they will run out of poison. Coming out of the capital, every time they slept in the open food, King Ning would order people to sprinkle medicinal powder around their camping, and the amount of each time was a lot, and now almost half of these medicinal powders have been used. But it's only nearly a third of the way. I don't know how much of the road ahead will have to be crossed like tonight, if it is a few more times, they will run out of these medicinal powders, and then they will have to meet each other, and the casualty rate will definitely increase. He won't be able to protect many people by then.
At the urging of King Ning, he didn't stop for half a moment at noon today, and he was able to get to the next town before the moon came out.
After a whole day in the carriage, most of them collapsed into bed after washing and eating. Xu Shizi and Shen Yafei are still the same as before, living in the same house.
Shen Yafei lay on the bed after washing, but her body had been in the carriage all day today, and as soon as she lay down, her back hurt so much that she couldn't sleep.
Xu Shizi sat down on the edge of the bed with a smile, pressed his hands on Shen Yafei's shoulders, and gently rubbed them a few times: "But it's uncomfortable?" ”
"Hmm." Shen Yafei nodded weakly, seeing that he was comfortable pressing, he should lie on the bed.
Seeing her enjoyment, Xu Shizi smiled softly, shook his head helplessly, put his hands on Shen Yafei's back, and secretly used his internal strength: "Don't you usually run around a lot?" Why can't you stand this? ”
"Our previous carriage is different, our carriage is carefully made, and it is very comfortable inside, where will it be
Suffer as much as you do today. Shen Yafei said with a pout. Xu Shizi pressed it quite comfortably, and she was a little sleepy.
"There is such a good carriage. Then why are you telling me? Why didn't you use your comfortable carriage? Then we won't have so much sin. As soon as Xu Shizi heard Shen Yafei say that there was a comfortable carriage, he complained.
"The carriage is in Huancheng. At the beginning, we entered Beijing in the carriage of the Shen family, so the carriage stayed in Huancheng. Shen Yafei said softly.
"No, miss, the carriage is in the capital now." Dabao came in with a basin of water, and said after hearing Shen Yafei's words.
"What!" Shen Yafei immediately jumped up from the bed.
"Zhiyan and Dayin took that carriage when they entered Beijing, you forgot." Dabao said speechlessly.
"I really forgot." Shen Yafei slammed his head. Shen Yafei was a little frustrated, she actually forgot such an important thing, she really deserved it!
"Lie down, I'll give you another push." Xu Shizi held back the smile in his chest, afraid that he couldn't help but show the smile at the corner of his mouth and be seen by Shen Yafei, thinking that he was laughing at her. lest she be angry.
Shen Yafei obediently went back. Xu Shizi gently placed his hand on Shen Yafei's back.
"Miss, I've brought the pain-soothing powder. You might as well rub a little powder, it will get better faster. Dabao put the powder into this pot and stirred it a few times.
When Xu Shizi saw Dabao's gaze driving away him, he originally wanted to stay, but after thinking about it, he quit. After Dabao helped Shen Yafei wipe her body, she retreated, and when Xu Shizi walked in, Shen Yafei was already asleep in bed.
Xu Shizi looked at Shen Yafei's quiet sleeping face, and his face unconsciously softened.
Just as Xu Shizi was concentrating on Shen Yafei's pure sleeping appearance, there was an incongruous aura outside.
