Chapter 744: Threatening Her
Lu Qingyi turned the horse's head and ran away, the old eunuch was anxious in his heart, and hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and chase after you." ”
The group was divided into three groups, one team went to the Glory Bureau, one team went to chase Lu Qingyi, and the other went back to report to the emperor, the three teams were separated, Lu Qingyi arrived at the city gate in a blink of an eye, but he looked at the city gate without opening, Motan's black eyes seemed to hide an undercurrent, and after a struggle, he did not open the city gate, but returned the same way and went to the palace gate.
"Your Majesty...... Emperor Lu Qingyi ran away. The old eunuch entered the door in a panic to report to the emperor, but when he saw the people in the imperial study, he was directly stupid.
Lu ...... Lu Qingyi? The old eunuch spoke silently, feeling as if he had seen a ghost, and then said angrily, "You actually tricked me? ”
Lu Qingyi stood in place and didn't speak, and when the emperor saw the old eunuch so flustered and reckless, his face sank, and he blasted out directly.
The old eunuch wanted to cry without tears, bowed his head and guarded the door, cursing Lu Qingyi again and again in his heart.
In the main hall, the room illuminated by the bright palace lights was like daylight, and the emperor looked at Lu Qingyi in the audience, and only spoke after a while: "I know that it should be Shen Xi's girl who can make you so abnormal, but now I have something for you to do, and it will take ten days for the capital to go to Tianshui, and you will solve the matter, and you will have time to find her." ”
Lu Qingyi suddenly looked up at the emperor, and there was some stubbornness in his eyes.
There were too many things that happened during this period, and no one knew what accidents would happen in the next moment, and he was not willing to bet on Shen Xi.
The emperor seemed to have guessed that Lu Qingyi would react like this, and said later: "Then you just have to go now, when the time comes, Wu Guo and Chu Han will fight, and then go to support Zhou Guo, Da Chu can't keep it, do you think Shen Xi will be fine?"
The emperor's words carried a bit of threat, which made Lu Qingyi's immobile figure shake, and he said in a lost voice: "Your Majesty! ”
actually threatened Shen Xi's safety with him?
The emperor sighed helplessly, and said vicissitudes: "I don't want to do this, it's just that now at a critical juncture, if the Wind Patriarch and the Luo Han ambassador have gone back to Chu Han, if you don't get rid of the Wu Kingdom, either Chu Han will disappear, or you will lose my prestige in Great Chu." ”
And now that the eldest prince has been demoted to a commoner, Chang Wen has rebelled, and the third prince has gone on an expedition again, there are almost no credible and usable people around the emperor, otherwise he would not have used Shen Xi as a threat at this time. Lu Qingyi risked his death, and obviously resisted and fell into the eyes of the emperor.
"Because Yi'er is personally in command of this expedition, I also transferred a hundred personal guard masters from the Praetorian Guard in the middle, and I will issue an order for them to protect Shen Xi together." The emperor used both soft and hard, so that Lu Qingyi's fists clenched together suddenly loosened, and finally he was ordered to leave immediately, he had to solve the problem in front of him in the shortest possible time, so that he could find her before Shen Xi arrived in Tianshui.
The first three days of the march were very peaceful, and by the fourth day, somehow, the speed of the march had more than doubled, making the Great Chu army very hasty, and the cavalry and infantry were almost scattered because of the speed of the advance.
"What's going on?" Shen Xi looked at the sudden change in the army, and asked while following.
Lin Lin is even more innocent and doesn't understand anything, she has been suffering a lot these days in burying pots and cooking, every time it is Shen Xi who rescues her, making her whole person a lot more low-key, fortunately, her skills are good, and the later days are quite passable. Odd books
"Little one, do you know what's going on?" Shen Xi looked at the little girl who was carrying a bunch of wild vegetables on her right, and asked if she had found a treasure and refused to put it down.
Xiao Budian is a little girl they met in the military camp, less than twenty years old, but she has fought many times with her parents, and she can be regarded as an "old general".
I didn't hear the conversation between Shen Xi and Lin Lin, wiped the sweat on my forehead, and explained directly: "Usually this situation is the news brought by the urgent border and the tight war, and it is estimated that I will have to rush overnight at night."
Xiao Bu didn't feel anything when he was used to it, but Shen Xi and Lin Lin complained bitterly after hearing it, where did they suffer this kind of hardship, they originally thought it was just staying up late, but the next morning, Shen Xi was sick.
"Sister, how are you?" Lin Lin went to fetch water while poking into Shen Xi's forehead, and his face hurriedly panicked: "Oh my God, you have a fever, I have to go to the military doctor quickly, oh no, go to Fu Chuan." ”
Seeing Lin Lin's hurried appearance, Shen Xi stretched out his hand to grab her, smiled and comforted: "What is a little fever, you can carry it in two days, don't reveal your identity." ”
"But you ......" Lin Lin was obviously not at ease: "I'm afraid that before I reach Tianshui, I will drag my body down first." ”
Shen Xi comforted Lin Lin, seeing that she was going to speak again, she stopped her with her eyes, and at this time, the team of people and horses rested in place, and Xiao Budian didn't know where to run away with his baby wild vegetables.
Waiting until the first half of the march, Xiao Bu'er came back, and handed it to Shen Xi with something that looked black in his hand, and said with concern: "Sister, this is a soup cooked with ginger and brown sugar water, you drink it while it's hot to ward off the cold, and I added some wild vegetables from yesterday to it, which just happens to satisfy hunger." ”
Shen Xi looked at Xiao Bu's sincere face, and took it with a smile, she was really hungry, and the days with Lu Qingyi had raised her appetite tricky, and now she was a little uncomfortable eating dry food on the road, and her immunity had decreased.
Lin Lin watched Shen Xi drink a bowl of soup that was difficult to swallow, moved his lips and didn't speak, and in a blink of an eye, he brought her a bowl of water: "Sister Linlin, drink a little too, to prevent getting sick." ”
After all three of them drank a bowl, their bodies really warmed up, and Lin Lin also added a few more pieces of clothes to Shen Xi, fortunately, the weather was warm and windless during the day, and the fever quickly subsided after sweating, and everyone hurried day and night, and finally arrived in Changzhou, and they could reach Tianshui in another day.
After setting up camp, Shen Xi asked the military doctor to check that his body was indeed fine, and then he returned to the camp tent with confidence, and Shen Xi, who was lying in the tent over and over, couldn't sleep, thinking of the reason for the overnight journey, she intuitively felt that the war was not as calm as it seemed.
After thinking about it, Shen Xi decided to go out to explore the way, and went back to make some preparations and went out with the baggage, but it was really dangerous to think that he was acting alone, and when he saw the camp tent of a row of soldiers, Shen Xi tiptoed over.
Before he could stabilize his figure, a rough voice suddenly appeared behind him: "What person?" ”
Shen Xi was taken aback, and hurriedly turned around in place before squeezing out a smile: "That good man, I'm here to find my father-in-law, I'm in logistics." As he spoke, he took out the dry food in his pocket and handed it over, intending to use it to buy people's hearts.
Shen Xi took this opportunity to explore Fu Chuan's camp, but he didn't expect that the man would cross the river and tear down the bridge when he was full of food and drink, and his face immediately changed.
