Official Road.

Yue Song rode a tall horse and led three thousand heavily armored soldiers to march on the official road not far from the main city of Lanxi. He was wearing a newly-made military general python robe, and the embroidery of the lilac moon flowing water on the placket was very conspicuous, even covering the four-clawed black python on the robe that showed the identity of the official.

He looked at the two stone carvings of "Lanxi" on the city gate with calm and confident eyes, glanced at the city gate open for his arrival, and the corners of his lips flashed with a smile that was in control.

King Hui is missing, Lei Xing is dead, Wei Chi is fleeing, Yue Tang is in a coma - Lanxi no longer has an official who can take charge, just waiting for him to come and collect things.

Seeing Hong Ding hurriedly come and salute himself, Yue Song nodded with satisfaction, and the polite question made all the soldiers hear: "How is my fourth sister?" I was so sad to hear the sad news that she was seriously injured and unconscious, and I was really worried that something had happened to her. ”

Hong Ding replied: "General Guiying is still in a coma, and his life and death are uncertain. ”

Yue Song frowned and said regretfully: "I brought a lot of precious medicinal materials, take me there quickly." ”

Hong Ding: "Although General Guiying is in a coma, she is stable, and there is also a famous local doctor in Lanxi by her side, the most important thing now is to go and see His Royal Highness King Hui first." ”

Yue Song was shocked: "Who did you say to meet?" ”

Hong Ding: "His Royal Highness King Hui." ”

Yue Song leaned over on horseback and stared at Hong Ding's eyes: "Everyone knows that King Hui has been missing for many days, when will he return to Lanxi?!" ”

Hong Ding: "Late at night the day before yesterday. His Royal Highness King Hui escaped from the North Court through dangerous obstacles, and there were many scars on his body that had been tortured, but his life was not hindered. ”

Yue Song's face sank, straightened up and regained his expression, and asked lightly, "Is it indeed King Hui?" ”

Hong Ding: "My subordinates haven't seen His Royal Highness King Hui either, but other officials in Lanxi and everyone in his mansion know him, so I can't be wrong." ”

Yue Song sneered, shook the horsewhip in his hand, and said casually: "Then lead the way, the etiquette is still thorough." ”

Hong Ding said yes, ordered someone to lead the way to settle the soldiers properly, and led Yue Song and a team of guards to King Hui's mansion.

King Hui's mansion is located on the east side of the main city, with a high door and wide door of the five-fold hall, carved beams and painted buildings, and is splendid. On the way to Yue Song's palace, someone had already gone to report first, and at this time, when he dismounted and walked to the East Corner Gate, the steward of the palace had come to greet him and personally introduced him into the main hall.

Yue Song walked slowly into King Hui's mansion, and watched as he walked - he saw many servants going back and forth, either sprinkling or carrying things, and it was indeed a busy scene of the prince who had just returned to the mansion. The closer they got to the main hall, the more soldiers guarded, and although they all saluted, they were guarded, obviously very concerned about the safety of King Hui, who had just returned.

Yue Song remembered the secret report from the North Court that his father had shown him, and frowned slightly at the figure on the main seat of the main hall that he could already vaguely see.

Entering the main hall, there were palace officials standing in the middle of the road, all bowing to Yue Song. Yue Song stepped forward to the throne of the main seat, did not rush to salute, but just looked up at the throne - only to see a young man in a brocade dress with a golden crown and jade belt glancing at him casually, and his appearance and bearing were very close to the description of King Hui that he had seen in the previous palace.

However, Yue Song still did not salute, and smiled slightly with questions: "His Royal Highness King Hui? ”

There was a civil official on the side who reprimanded: "Presumptuous, why don't the lower officials salute when they see the king?" ”

Yue Song stood with his hands in his hands without the slightest fear, and still said with a smile: "According to reliable sources, King Hui has died in Beiting, I don't know where the person on this came from?" Not sooner or later, just before I came to Lanxi? ”

The civil official was about to reprimand him again, but the man in the seat gently raised his hand to stop him, coughed lowly, and said in a slightly hoarse voice with a long journey and a sick body: "In this world, things are always written without coincidence. Yue's line is widely reported, but no one has told General Yue that it has been ten days since this king escaped from the hands of the people of Beiting? ”
