Chapter Ninety-Nine: Tracking
When he was about to reach the street outside the royal city, Shu He took out a veil from the package, wrapped the veil around it, and covered his face.
Even after returning to her homeland, she still didn't have the courage to show her true face. She wore a silk scarf to make it easier for her to move around the city, and she was afraid that someone would recognize her, and it would not end well.
Shu He found a pawnshop in the city, got rid of her bracelet, and bought a set of clothes to change into, which was the men's clothing she liked, and she always had a simple and atmospheric style. Tearing off the veil, she cautiously shuttled through the flow of people, looking at the place where she had been absent for many years.
She could remember all the good deeds and tricks she had done on this street, including the fact that she drugged the messenger who bought the horses, which led to the war between the two countries. Thinking that in the end she hated herself, hated herself so much that she wanted to smoke herself to death, but she couldn't punish herself now, she had more important things to do.
The crowd was noisy, and the sound of horses' hooves was crisp and clear, and when you heard the sound of horses' hooves, you knew that it was a superb horse. Shu He looked in the direction where the sound of horses' hooves came, and saw the tall and tall Chidanu running from the other side of the street.
At this moment, all the fire and thunder of hatred in her heart were ignited, and she thought that if she couldn't save her life, she would have no regrets about fighting him to die than living and suffering from her heart.
She aimed in the direction where Chidanu was going, and quietly followed, but her two feet were no match for a strong horse that kicked away. Shu He knew that there was a horse village not far away, where there were good horses, and quickly went there.
Picking a fine horse, she kept a jade buckle she carried with her as collateral, thinking that if she could live, she would definitely come back to return the money. Regardless of the thunderous thunder of the horse seller, she had already run for miles.
The king of Beiwan proudly received the messenger of Dayuan, looking like he was not waiting to see the envoy, thinking that it must be Ohara who came to sue for peace, and he had to take out the shelf and give the people of Dayuan a dismount.
The messenger was too anxious to bother with Chirenhar, otherwise he would have killed him. But the emperor said that the situation was critical and there was no room for mistakes, so he held back and repeatedly explained that this letter was extraordinary, and he must ask the king to read the letter, and the consequences of a mistake would be unimaginable.
Chilenhar put on a full shelf, opened the letter slowly, and when he saw the contents, he was shocked, and he didn't ease his breath for a long time.
Chirenhar asked the masked messenger, "Is this letter true, is the lieutenant really it?" ”
The masked messenger said, "It is absolutely true that His Majesty the Emperor will not send a message to the King on such an important confidential matter without checking it out." ”
King Beiwan thought about it, this matter is so secret, it should not be faked, and the guards he sent to monitor Chidanu said that Chidanu had suspected the identity of the lieutenant, but he had never obtained key evidence.
Now that the evidence is conclusive, how can he tolerate the fact that the son of the old king is still alive, and how can he tolerate the fact that people who are a threat to him live in this world. Therefore he will put to death this man who is a threat to his throne, and he will destroy all those who deceive him.
The letter said that the two countries should stop fighting and take care of their respective internal affairs. But he would not make it public, and once it was made public, most of the reinforcements he borrowed would immediately return home, and then it would not be so convenient to deal with internal affairs, so he weighed the pros and cons and decided to use external forces to eliminate internal troubles.
His wishful thinking is really good, I'm afraid it won't be as he wants.
The king of the great food has already received a letter, the letter said that the king of Beiwan borrowed external forces to eliminate internal troubles, this behavior is really despicable, the king of the great food immediately wrote a letter to his general Gu Yinkou, calling him to move troops back to China, the letter is already on the way.
The eldest prince of the Herenda tribe received the letter from his younger brother and knew how to deal with it, and everything was lurking, waiting for the dawn to come.
When Guan Duyuan received Yun Duan's letter, the joy and sorrow were half apart, and this kid's own decision was difficult for outsiders to say after all. The letter said that when and where he could launch an attack, involving the forces of Zhu Beiwan, there was no need to start a real war; But he knew that no matter whether it was a real fight or a fake fight, there would definitely be casualties, and how to remedy it if there was a loophole in He Zhen's plan?
A series of questions are presented, and in any case, it is an adventure. And he had to take risks, for the sake of the clouds, for the sake of redress, for the sake of atonement, he had to do it.
At the same time, Guan Duyuan received a secret letter from Emperor Ohara, telling him to seize the opportunity to annihilate Beiwan in one fell swoop, and if he did not annihilate Beiwan, he would be executed for his crimes.
When the two letters arrived in his hands, Guan Duyuan had a strong premonition, thinking that it could not be such a coincidence, Emperor Ohara's letter came too timely, and this time always made Guan Duyuan feel uneasy.
Jingyu also noticed that something was wrong, but she couldn't find out where the problem was for a while.
Ever since Yundui told Jingyu about his plan, Jingyu has been uneasy, with too many things in between, and the situation is getting bigger and bigger, and he finds that not only is he more and more unsure, but the general is also worried about this matter.
Jingyu asked, "General, what should I do?" On the one hand, it is required to cooperate with the troops, and on the other hand, it is necessary to annihilate it in one fell swoop, how to choose? ”
Guan Du looked at Jingyu from afar, "Where do you go with your usual brain seed power?" Whether I am annihilated in one fell swoop or not, do you think I can still go back? Just talking about the matter of Yundui, once it is made public, the emperor will convict me of whatever crime he wants. ”
"If we knew this was the case, we shouldn't have ......", without waiting for Jingyu to continue, Guan Duyuan continued: "We didn't have a choice, and we didn't know earlier!" That's not what I'm worried about, whether I win or lose, I can't go back, and the emperor doesn't want me to go back; I'm just worried about the people in the house. ”
Guan Duyuan wrote back, but now he didn't respond, he was anxious that something was wrong in the house.
Jingyu said: "You have sent a message, it should be no big problem, you don't need to worry too much. ”
said that there was no need to worry too much, but in fact, Jingyu herself was extremely weak-hearted. The current situation is not optimistic, and the time agreed with Yundui is tomorrow, so they are not allowed to rush back to see what the truth is.
Jingyu stayed up all night with the general, going through the plans he had already made to see where there would be temporary changes, and if so, how to deal with them. Prediction is always prediction, planning can never catch up with change, and fear makes people understand that such a truth will still be ignored.
Chilunhar, the king of Beiwan, immediately sent guards to chase after Chidanu, and instructed the guards to report the news sent by Ohara's messenger to His Royal Highness the prince.
Chidanu ran wildly all the way, and Shu He kept chasing behind, but she still didn't see a figure, so she had to follow the traces of the carriage on the ground.
Shuhe chased all the way to the traces of the horse's hooves and wheels, chasing and chasing, and the marks on the ground began to increase, the road was divided into three forks, and the footprints of the horse's hooves were all over every road. The horse's hoof footprints were so numerous and messy that she couldn't tell where the footprints were from the man as he passed by.
Seeing Chi Danu, Shu He was full of hatred, and she chose a route that she thought was the most likely with the attitude of taking a gamble. chased out, ran for more than an hour, and found a camp, which is estimated to be the camp of Chidanu.
The night was dark, the camp was heavily guarded and heavily guarded, and it was not easy for her to get closer. She rolled over and dismounted, and tied her horse to a distant low-lying place that was invisible from the direction of the camp.
Shu He tied up his horse and tidied up his clothes, there was no mirror, and he didn't know if his men's outfit could hide it. Just as she was about to climb up from the low-lying slope, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came, getting closer and closer, and Shu He became invisible again.
A fast horse swept by, and the person on the horseback was dressed as a guard, and the costume was recognized by Shuhe, which was the unique dress of the Beiwan royal guards. Shu He cautiously climbed up from the bottom of the slope and ran towards the camp taking advantage of this gap.
She saw the guard's horse parked directly outside the tent in the middle, which presumably was Chidano's tent. Shu He squeezed out a strange premonition in her hatred, and she said in her heart: "Didn't Chidanu just come out of the royal city? Why did the royal family immediately send someone over again, there must be some temporary emergency. ”
Shu He had been guarding in a hidden corner in the distance, and the guard came out not long after, and he didn't see Chidanu come out. The guard galloped away on horseback, and Shu He thought that something must not have happened in the palace, otherwise Chidanu would not have remained in the camp. Therefore, she guessed that it must be the barracks, and the guard had just come to deliver the letter.
If you want to know the news, you have to ask the guard, and without thinking too much, Shu He turned around and loosened the tethered horse, turned over on the horse, and chased after him.
The guard was not in a hurry, maybe the news was delivered, and he relaxed a lot. Shu He kept chasing, and at that fork in the road, he sideways picked up a stone from the ground, jerked off his horse, and flew close to the guard. The guard looked back and saw an empty horse chasing him, and before he could react to why there was a horse behind him, a stone flew over, and the stone plunged into the back of the guard's head, and the man immediately rolled off the horse.
Shu He landed on the horse's back from mid-air, flew over and kicked the guard who was about to get up to attack her. The guard was suddenly attacked, and the back of his head was bleeding incessantly, and soon his clothes were stained red.
Shu He grabbed the guard, snatched the sword from his waist, grabbed his neck, and asked him: "Your Highness is not at ease, let me ask you, is the news you delivered true?" ”
When the guard heard her say that she was His Highness's person, he asked with difficulty, "Are you Your Highness's person?" Why didn't Your Highness just ask me directly? ”
Shu He increased the strength of his hand, "Your Highness's invisible guards are also what you can know, nonsense, say, is the news you delivered reliable?" ”
The guard understood that all kings and princes had their own guards who did not show their traces, and just now seeing that he was good, he must not be lying. The guard struggled twice and said, "It's true, it was written by Emperor Ohara himself, saying that the identity of the captive lieutenant is the son of the old king, and he must be disposed of as soon as possible!" ”
Shu He was already very angry, and when he heard these two words, his murderous intent suddenly rose, his hand raised his sword, and the hilt of the sword stabbed straight into the guard's chest.
