Riding the horse all the way, Xie Lingxu felt that the two of them had been walking in the forest for a few hundred meters, and it seemed a little unrealistic to go to the camp of the king of Youwang from here, but he felt that the horse that stepped down suddenly spasmed, and he was caught off guard and suddenly fell straight down......

The defenseless Xie Lingxu and the frail emperor fell the grass covered with dead branches and leaves, and the sharp edges and corners of the gravel everywhere were embedded in Xie Lingxu's cracked wounds, and the unbearable pain made his perception almost numb......

Xie Lingxu got up slowly, and looked at the horse that fell to the ground on one side and felt a pain in his brain......

If you scrap a horse, do you have to rely on two half-lame legs to get out?

Suddenly remembered that Bai Qiu always appeared suddenly at a critical moment before, damn, why did this hard-to-find brother disappear at this time!

Xie Lingxu turned his head to look at the emperor who was slowly getting up from the ground, and couldn't help pursing his lips - and the emperor's oil bottle......

Tsk——, pursuers will be coming soon, what should we do now?

Xie Lingxu: "Your Majesty, get ready, we have to go out from here." ”

The emperor patted the mud stains on his collar:

"Let's go? How long does it take? ”

Xie Lingxu turned his head: "How do I know!" Without looking back, he walked forward.

"Eh, eh...... Spirit, you wait, I'm waiting. ”

The emperor waved his hand at the indifferent back in front of him, and seeing that the former didn't mean to deal with him at all, he immediately sighed and followed her with a boring sigh......

Xie Lingxu dragged his weak body with his steps, but he still didn't stop for a moment, and at this moment, he was completely relying on his sixth sense to go around the forest in the forest.

The emperor: "Huh, ......, Ling, you go slowly......"

Xie Lingxu turned his head and looked at the latter's panting breath on his waist, and couldn't help but roll his eyes:

"Slow down, and the enemy will catch up!"

Xie Lingxu crossed his waist, but saw that the emperor actually sat down against the stump on the side......

Xie Lingxu frowned:

"Your Majesty!"

"I ...... I can't do it, I can't do it! ”

Xie Lingxu pursed his lips and said:

"Then the emperor, you can rest by yourself, I will take care of you!"

The emperor looked at the back of the former leaving, called her weakly, and then buried his head and sighed secretly......

"Hurry up, if you don't leave, they'll catch up!"

Xie Lingxu kicked on the trunk of the tree where the emperor was leaning, thinking that in short, the target of the enemy army was the emperor, and it was his business whether he ran away or not, why was he so nosy, and he had to pull the emperor to run together......

The Emperor: "Ling, what do you ...... Back again? ”

Xie Lingxu tugged at the former's clothes and said:

"Nonsense! Let's go—"

The Emperor: "I still thought it was ...... You're going to leave me behind......"

Xie Lingxu looked at the former's gaze and was stunned, and his dry throat moved:

"I ...... Don't leave you behind. ”

Holding the emperor's arm, Xie Lingxu walked forward without looking back: "Ahem...... Let's go, it's time for the enemy to catch up. ”

I don't know where I am, looking back at the enemy army and it seems that they won't catch up, Xie Lingxu stopped and said to the emperor who was like ashes on the other side:

"It's not early, let's rest here first."

"Hu ......" saw that the emperor sat on the spot without saying a word, and he didn't pay attention to being a palace nobleman at all.

Xie Lingxu put away his sword and leaned down, only to find that his numb legs had stiffened and were difficult to bend......

It was about winter, and when he was still and was swept by the biting evening breeze, Xie Lingxu was curled up by the cold......

The emperor looked at the person with purple lips in front of him, raised his collar and said:

"I'm so cold."

Xie Lingxu raised his eyes and rubbed his hands:

"yes......"

The Emperor: "Or...... You're going to make a fire? ”

Xie Lingxu: "Make a fire here?" Your Majesty, are you trying to recruit the enemy? ”

The emperor scratched the back of his head and said, "Yes." ”

The washed and stiff martial clothes were attached to his back, and the cold chill pierced into the bone marrow, Xie Lingxu straightened his back, and he could feel the coolness of the tip of his nose when he breathed......

The emperor: "The wind is so strong, I am so cold." ”

Xie Lingxu raised his head and glanced at the former, thinking that the labor and management were wearing single clothes, and you were wearing a mink jacket and had a cold face!

Standing up helplessly, Xie Lingxu turned around and went to the dense tree not far away, and came back with a pile of dead leaves:

"You can't make a fire right now, everything is simple, and the emperor will just get by!"

Xie Lingxu spread the leaves in his arms on the former, and was about to get up, but saw an indescribable look on the emperor's face:

"Ling, I'm cold, you're closer to me."

Xie Lingxu raised his eyebrows, he wanted to open his mouth to refuse, glanced at the emperor's thick cloak, and then moved his cold shoulders, thinking that it would be warmer next to the emperor's heart, so he sat down beside the person in front of him.

As soon as he sat down in the pile of dead leaves spread on the ground, Xie Lingxu seemed to feel a warm current coming from the emperor's mink cloak, thinking that it was too cold to wear so much, is the emperor at odds with his blood?

Looking at the former's approaching side face, I recalled the scene when he and himself first met...... The emperor seems to be still as simple and simple, without the slightest change, and he has always been like a younger brother who is not involved in the world in his heart, so that Xie Lingxu wants to protect. However, in just a few months, he seems to have experienced life and death, which is very different from his original appearance......

Xie Lingxu: "That Prime Minister Yuan...... Who is the emperor? Did the emperor foresee his rebellion? ”

Although the emperor doesn't know anything about court and politics, Xie Lingxu has always felt that the former is actually a thoughtful and sensitive person.

"My uncle."

Xie Lingxu felt that it was no longer important that Prime Minister Yuan Cheng and the emperor were close, in short, whether he should rebel or rebel, even if he was related by blood, the little useless connection in the blood was nothing compared to his vital interests.

The emperor: "I have lived for so long, and I am ...... There aren't many credible people......"

The gloomy voice didn't look like words coming out of the emperor's mouth at all, Xie Lingxu turned his eyes and looked at the person beside him with a somewhat lonely look, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"At least...... Your Majesty, you can believe it...... Youwang, right? ”

The emperor was noncommittal, and Xie Lingxu saw that the former wanted to speak and stopped, and knew that he would not say anything more to himself.

The cool breeze in the middle of the night "swished" across his cheeks, and the emperor complained about the cold, and approached the person wrapped in a cloak, which added some warmth to the latter.

Xie Lingxu's pale lips finally became a little rosy, and drowsiness gradually hit, he closed his eyes slightly, and his breathing slowly became lighter......

The night is long, like a terrible flood beast, which makes it difficult to feel at ease-

He seemed to have woken up from a dream in the middle of the night, and the emperor seemed to have not slept for a long time, half-closing his eyes to look at the former's somewhat blurred face under the twilight, and there seemed to be a look on his fair face that he had never seen before......

I only heard a familiar male voice coming:

"Why are you willing to sacrifice your life to save me?"

Before he woke up from his sleep, Xie Lingxu didn't know what he was thinking in a trance, and said casually:

"I don't know...... You may think that we are the same kind, we are all ...... People who can't help themselves. ”

Xie Lingxu closed his eyes and listened to the emperor repeat the words "I can't help ......myself" in a gloomy voice, and suddenly he was dragged by the nightmare to isolate himself from the outside world, and he couldn't hear the sounds around him......

It was already dark, and the dark clouds in the distance seemed to indicate a torrential rain in the near future—

Xie Lingxu: "Your Majesty, don't stop, we still have to hurry!" ”

The emperor hugged the trunk of the tree on the side and said exhaustedly:

"I can't do it, I'm too tired......"

Xie Lingxu pulled the sleeve of the former:

"No, Your Majesty, you can't give up at this time."

"We didn't see the pursuers catching up, so we couldn't rest for a while......"

Groove ...... If you see the pursuers, it's too late, and the emperor can't speak with a little brain!

Xie Lingxu: "You can't relax at this time, Your Majesty, you hold on for a while." ”

"I can't do it...... It really doesn't work anymore. ”

Seeing that the former had completely given up struggling, Xie Lingxu supported the trunk with one hand and helplessly supported his forehead with the other.

Just thinking about whether it would be difficult for him to carry the emperor on his back, Xie Lingxu was keenly aware of a strange sound......

Not good –

Straightening his back suddenly, Xie Lingxu put his index finger to his lips, and made a forbidden gesture at the emperor-

"Wow————"

"Wow————"

The sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and the strong sense of crisis made Xie Lingxu's mind go blank in an instant.

Grabbing the emperor's hand, Xie Lingxu dragged the former and began to run ahead of him......

Desperately running towards the road in front of him, Xie Lingxu clearly heard his heartbeat and the emperor's gasp, but neither of them stopped.

The pursuers behind him were still approaching, but they had reached the end of the woods in front of them—

Further on, there was an unobstructed open realm, and Xie Lingxu's feet were weak and he almost fell.

It seems that this is being driven to death......

The Emperor: "What, what should I do?" ”

Xie Lingxu: "I ......"

"Catch them—"

Groove ...... Xie Lingxu turned his head and saw that the dense army in front of him had suddenly become a human wall, blocking the road behind him.

The retreat is definitely not possible, Xie Lingxu pulled the emperor's arm and said, "Run, don't stop." ”

It was self-evident which of the two-legged man was faster and slower than the four-legged horse, and in less than a moment the two of them were chased by the men and horses behind them......

The sharp blade came up again, Xie Lingxu dodged sideways, and stabbed his backhand sword into the foot and neck of the man who rode off the horse, and the person on his side instantly fell down. Xie Lingxu raised his eyes, and dragged the emperor who was almost cut down by the enemy to him, thinking that he was too embarrassed to protect himself, and he was distracted and paid attention to the emperor's safety, should life be so difficult and sad......

"Your Majesty, be careful—"

After holding the emperor who was standing in place stupidly, he was stabbed in the back by a sword that caught him off guard, Xie Lingxu scolded his mother, and said to the emperor in a blink of an eye:

"Is the short sword you were given before still there?"

The Emperor: "In ...... ...... here."

Seeing that the former trembled and took out the short sword in his arms, Xie Lingxu said angrily:

"Giving you a sword is for self-defense, to protect yourself - you will more or less know this!"

Seeing the woman in front of him, the emperor looked solemn, and said weakly:

"Hmm...... Yes. ”

"Then don't think about it, defend yourself with your sword, and try not to let them come near you. That's right...... "Xie Lingxu paused:

"Don't ...... Hit yourself yourself! ”
