She was already extremely weak. But the brain is still thinking. It's not yet time to fully relax. Hurry up and find a place to hide. Tomorrow will be the post-sealing ceremony plus the emperor's birthday banquet. Envoys will come from all over the world. Shangsheng for the sake of the country's face. She will never be arrested with great fanfare at this time. Hide it now. Tomorrow you can take advantage of this gap to escape.

But at this moment she didn't want to move at all. She felt like she was falling apart. The bones will fall off. But at this time. But she heard a voice.

It came out of the tunnel.

"Hurry up. Don't let that girl run away." A dozen or twenty men with slightly thinner statures walked down the tunnel. Their bodies are caught in the wall. The chest cavity has difficulty getting out of the air. His face flushed. It's about to reach the exit of the tunnel.

Lian Zhou was stunned. Immediately reached out and patted the door of the head. Shed so much blood yourself. Spread all the way. It's strange that those people don't know where they are. Disaster is coming again. No matter how tired she was, she had to cheer up. Try to move your feet. It's just that I can't open my eyes. She squeezed her thigh hard with her hand. The pain cleared her mind a little. However, it is still sour. She had to grit her teeth and hold on. Because of so many fights and treks. She was sore and tired. Physically and mentally exhausted. So now she will be dizzy when she runs in the mountains and forests. It's inevitable to run around.

And behind her. The guards of the Meng Mansion followed her all the way through the mountains and forests along the trail of her blood.

Lianzhou was weak. It's just a reflex running forward. Her head felt like she was dizzy. Headless flies walking through the woods. She just wanted to make sure she didn't go into the back valley. There is a three-storey slope in the back valley. Say it's a slope. In fact, the degree of slope is comparable to that of a cliff. Her feet hurt to death. If you're forced there. I really can't afford to jump like that. She only wanders through the woods. In the hope of stunning the guards. Find a place to hide.

She thought as she ran. But I don't know that on the rock behind me. Engraved with the three words of the back suburb valley. Those three words are inconspicuous on the stone. Ben is a profound brushstroke. But it was washed by the vicissitudes of wind and rain and blurred. It's just hard to read. They stand there silently. It's like an ancient and mysterious language. Quietly narrating the story that is about to happen.

"General Cheng. You listen. There seems to be a fight over there."

At this time, the moonlight gradually faded. The sky was white. Zhong Liyu lowered his head even more. And so did the people see him; thought he was saddened by the death of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. No one suspected anything.

He glanced at Zhao Youren very quickly out of the corner of his eye. He lowered his voice and said very unceremoniously: "Lord Zhao means."

Because everyone thought Zhong Liyu was dead. So it's all a heavy face. The pace of the horses was much slower than before. Zhao Youren slowly stepped on the horse. Follow behind Zhong Liyu. Hear his questioning. You have a kind of embarrassment that is seen through. However, he is an old fritter after all. Thick black learns better than anyone else. was asked by Zhong Liyu. He replied with a cheeky face: "General Cheng. My personal safety is secondary. The main reason is that I am afraid that those ill-intentioned people will come to rob the body of His Royal Highness the Prince. In my opinion. Let's hurry back to Xuanyin. so as not to cause trouble."

What an old fox. Just now, I told him to run for his life quickly. Now in front of so many people. It's so high-sounding. And it's inflammatory. It makes a lot of people a little nervous.

Right now. He could tell that there were a few people who treated him sincerely. It didn't take him a lot of disguise.

Qiao Jiang arched his hand and said, "General Cheng. The end will think. You really should return to Xuanyin......"

Zhao Youren saw that there was an alliance. I can't help but smile. said: "General Qiao is really reasonable." He turned his head and continued to say to Zhong Liyu. General Cheng. You see. Should we ...... "deliberately not finish the sentence. But everyone understands the meaning of this omission. Zhao Youren chuckled. I thought to myself. This Qiao Jiang is Cheng Qingjian's cousin. It's his right-hand man. Usually Cheng Qingjian has always been waiting to see him. Now even Qiao Jiang has chosen to escape. This Cheng Qingjian shouldn't be so stinky and hard.

Zhong Liyu's eyes darkened. Even Qiao Jiang thinks the same way? Choose to share a boat with Zhao Youren. Drop his body before Ben Nayang. Actually, he knew. Zhao Youren still has something to say that he didn't dare to say. Run to Nayang. No matter how good the relationship is. Nayang will not risk going to war with Xuan Yin to take them in. So, Zhao Youren in order to survive. There's only one way. That is to use his Zhong Liyu's corpse as a bargaining chip. Threaten his father, Zhongli Xuanye. As for what conditions they will prescribe. Don't even think about it. Surely greed has no limit.

Zhong Liyu's thin lips were pursed. But he didn't say a word.

Qiao Jiang said solemnly: "Lord Zhao's words are wrong. The last general's words have not yet been finished." Because Zhao Youren is the waiter of the Ministry of Rites and the head of the four divisions of the Ministry of Rites. It was also the second time that he accompanied the prince to visit Shangsheng. The status among the envoys is much higher than that of Qiao Jiang, who is the commander of the guards and the military division of the army and the outside of the mission. So even if there is a difference between civil and military. Qiao Jiang still had to obediently call the last general. He said: "Xuan Yin naturally wants to go back. But before that. We must find out who killed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I proclaim the kingdom of heaven for a generation. How can you suffer such humiliation in vain? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is Prince Xuanyin. If Shangsheng is allowed to bully so much he will not respond. So he fled back in fear. How can you not let the people of Xuanyin be indignant? How can you not make other nations laugh?" He is dressed in armor. The appearance is not very unusual. It's even a little ugly. Ben is extremely unobtrusive. But a passage he said with great momentum. Gao Juma suddenly showed extraordinary. Although it is not explicitly stated. But word by word alludes to Zhao Youren's greed for life and fear of death. Caring only for personal safety. Leave the dignity of the country behind. He said it so cleverly. And all the people looked at him. Zhong Liyu couldn't help but be impressed by him.

It could have been a rhetoric of generosity. Elevate your image. But Qiao Jiang chose to stop there. No longer extended. He only said: "General Cheng. Without further ado. Let's get into town quickly."

Zhong Liyu bowed slightly. Clamp the horse's belly. Prepare to rush to Yudu City quickly.

However......

"I still want to run." The blue-clad guard at the front raised an eyebrow and smiled. Behind you is the Broken Slope. With your body. If you jump, you'll die." Lian Zhou suddenly wanted to tear his smug face. But she had to admit that he was telling the truth. Jump like this. She will indeed be in danger of dying.
