One hundred and thirty-eight is vigorous, then declining, and three is exhausted
I got into the carriage, and the carriage sped south. I sat in the carriage and felt uneasy, firstly because I didn't know if I could catch up with the prince if I rushed now, and secondly, I was really worried about the injury of King Yu.
The carriage carrying us was the carriage used by the Imperial Hall to transport goods to other places, and it was pulled by four horses at a high speed. The carriage is equipped with food and water, and the goods are transported outside all year round, and these dry rations are indispensable. In addition to me, there were a few bundles of rice paper and ten strong men in the car, Boss Li said that these ten strong men were all guys from their Imperial Hall, and they generally transported precious pen, ink, paper and inkstones to the imperial city, which were all carried by several of them, and it should not be a problem for them to escort me to southern Xinjiang.
But I'm worried about the safety of King Yu, all the thugs in Yipintang have been brought out by me, if those black-clothed people find King Yu in the Imperial Hall, what can they do?
However, there is no turning back now, and I can only hope that all bad premonitions do not happen.
Yes, King Yu is King Yu after all, he knows many more people in Huizhou than me, with Boss Liu to take care of, he should be fine, and even if I stay by his side, if the people of the concubine Niangniang chase after me, I don't have any ability to help King Yu get out of danger.
His indifferent smile resurfaced in his mind, "Qingyi, I'll go to Southern Xinjiang to find you in two days." ”
Second cousin, I'm waiting for you in southern Xinjiang, you must come......
I sat on my horse and my thoughts were wandering, and the words of the strong man in the car interrupted my train of thought.
"Princess Qingyi, drink some water, don't worry, we are very familiar with the road to southern Xinjiang, and we will definitely be able to deliver you as soon as possible!" A strong man respectfully handed me the kettle and placed the dry food in front of me.
I waved my hand, and now I couldn't eat anything, "Fastest, how fast?" When will it arrive? ”
Dahan touched the back of his head, "Tomorrow at noon, it must have arrived." ”
"No way!" I became anxious, "I must get to the barracks at the border by tomorrow morning!" ”
The big man was frightened by my demeanor, he frowned and pondered for a moment, then called to the coachman to stop the car, ran out of the car himself, and got off the horse.
All you could hear was the crackling of the whip outside the carriage, and the carriage moved forward at a faster pace.
My heart is a little more settled, in the past few days of fleeing south, I and King Yu are racing against time every day, so far, I have not closed my eyes, my body has long been exhausted, in the shaking of the carriage, I actually fell asleep.
In the dream, I dreamed again about the fire ten years ago, and this time, the person who ran into the fire was not Ye Linghan, but King Yu, he was dressed in white like a fairy, standing in the fire, he was not surprised and did not shout, he was laughing, he saw me being pressed under the shrine, he smiled at me.
I was still anxious to scream, to run, but I couldn't move. Struggling with all my might, I woke up from my dream!
I rubbed my aching temples, opened my eyes, picked up the curtain on the car and looked out, and at this glance, I was completely awake, oh my God! It's already light! Through the window, you can see the sun rising on the horizon beyond the wilderness!
I stuck out my head and nervously asked the strong man who was driving, "Where are we?" ”
The strong man was startled, and when he turned around, his eyes were already bloodshot, and it seemed that he had been concentrating on driving all night.
"Princess, we have arrived at the border of southern Xinjiang and are heading in the direction of the barracks!"
"Quick! Can it be a little faster?! "I was screaming in the car, and the wind whirring in my ears ruffled my hair. I don't want to go back to the car, every minute and every second is so urgent and precious at the moment!
The groom's whip was drawn one after another, but the horses had already exhausted themselves and reached their limits, but in front of them was a small mound, which was not too small and small, and the carriage was struggling to climb up, and the speed gradually slowed down.
I anxiously shouted in my heart to hurry up, hurry up, I hope the horses will not be discouraged at this time, but I must get to the barracks on time......
"Princess! Look! Over this hill, there are camped military tents in front of them, and the banner of the word "night" fluttering in the wind is waving in the wind, and on the high hill, you can clearly see that all the men and horses in the barracks are gathering in one direction, they sometimes raise the spears in their hands, sometimes shout slogans, and soon they are lined up into a neat and majestic phalanx!
Caught up! Caught up!
As soon as I was excited, my heart was sore, and tears almost fell out, "Quick! Go to the barracks! ”
The carriage rushed down the hill and hurried in the direction of the barracks, and the soldiers at the watchtower soon spotted us, and a small group of soldiers with spears galloped towards us.
When I got to the front, the small group of soldiers lined up in front of the carriage and forced it to stop, and I immediately jumped out of the carriage and rushed to the soldiers.
"I'm Princess Qingyi, I want to see General Night!" I held up the general's order and said it aloud, my eyes fixed on the direction of the army's formation, for fear that they would march away with a wave of their horses.
When the soldier saw the general's order in my hand, the look of vigilance on his face instantly changed to respect, and he leaned over and said, "Princess, please wait a moment, while I go to report to the general!" ”
"Good! Tell him that Princess Qingyi asks to meet! ”
One soldier ran in the direction of the army, and the rest of the men with spears looked at me and a dozen strong men of unknown origin, knowing that these soldiers would not let our guard down and let us enter the barracks until my identity was determined. The brawny man and I clenched our fists, our eyes fixed on the departing soldier.
The soldier ran to the Night General at the front of the phalanx and whispered something, and the soldier's slogan paused slightly, but there was no sign that the Night General wanted to come.
The military order is like a mountain, and now that the march is imminent, I'm afraid that people like General Yehan won't meet anyone at this moment......
No, I'm going to stop it! I couldn't do it anymore, so I got up and ran inside! But before I could run two steps, I was caught by the guards, and thanks to the protection of those strong men, I was not hurt much, but my hands were restrained and I could not take another half a step forward!
"Let me go! I have something important to tell the Night General! This battle can't be fought! I screamed as hard as I could, trying to break through their restraints, and I shouted in the direction of the army: "Night General! This is a trick of the people of southern Xinjiang! This battle can't be fought! You can't fight! ”
My shouts finally caught the attention of the soldiers, who turned their heads to look at me. After a while, at last, a group of people rode towards me, there were seven people who came, and the leader was an old man who had read fifty years, and he was heroic and extraordinary, and he must have been the famous General Ye Hanye! He was followed by a prince in military uniform, and five people who looked like lieutenants.
"Night General!" Before they could reach me, I shouted in the direction they had come.
After a while, the seven men stopped in front of us.
"Qingyi? What are you doing here? "The first person who recognized me was the prince, who sat on the back of the horse with a suspicious expression, and looked at me with no surprise or disgust.
When the old man in the lead saw the prince say this, he immediately turned over and dismounted, and knelt down in front of me with his hands clenched into fists: "Lao Chen Yehan knocks on Princess Qingyi!" ”
Several other lieutenants also dismounted and bowed.
I was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Lord Ye up, although I also understand the way of the monarch and minister, but how can I afford such a big gift from General Yehan.
"General! This battle cannot be fought! This is completely a conspiracy of the people of southern Xinjiang! I said eagerly, tugging at General Night's arm.
Ye Han's face immediately turned pale, and his cold eagle eyes turned his head to look at the other lieutenants, all of whom looked at each other.
"Qingyi! What do you mean?! The prince was immediately furious, and he dismounted and rushed towards me, "Now you tell us not to fight?" Why? There are only 10,000 soldiers and horses in southern Xinjiang, and we have 80,000! Rush over now, and we'll win easily! And you say it's a conspiracy? Haha, I think you're a conspiracy! ”
"Prince ......"
"Say no more!" I was just about to explain, but I was coldly interrupted by the prince, "Don't think I don't know, you wrote an edict to make the people of southern Xinjiang give up the war, are you afraid that I will take it and read it to those who defend you and scold you for being greedy for life and afraid of death, and cowardly like a mouse, right?" Or, seeing that the army in southern Xinjiang can't defeat Chang'an, what new conspiracy has come about, so you were sent to convince the cholera Chang'an army, right? ”
It seems that this prince is really full of paste in his head! I anxiously persuaded: "I admit that the people of southern Xinjiang did provoke the war because they wanted to save me!" But this war is not that simple! Someone deliberately provoked the contradiction between Chang'an and Southern Xinjiang, and wanted to put me to death, and to put the prince to death! ”
"You're just talking nonsense!" The prince looked at me with contempt and anger, and in his opinion, this is a great opportunity to make a contribution, and he has eaten the meat in his mouth, but I want him to spit it out.
I didn't want to entangle with him anymore, so I turned around and begged Yehan: "Night General! You trust me! The rebellion of the people of southern Xinjiang was not intentional! They also have absolutely no intention of provoking a war! Why do reconciling issues have to be reconciliable? Moreover, today's battle is really dangerous, and it is not a wise move to rush into the army! Think twice, General Night! ”
"Don't listen to her nonsense! She's our enemy now, and we should arrest her! Let the people of southern Xinjiang disarm and surrender! ”
"Alright, stop arguing!" As soon as Ye Han raised his hand, everyone instantly fell silent. He turned his head and said coldly to the people behind him: "General Li, hang up the exemption card, and the soldiers continue to go back to the training ground to practice. ”
General Lee received the order, turned his horse's head and ran backwards.
The prince was so angry that his face turned red, and he immediately rushed to General Ye and pointed at his nose: "Ye Han! Do you know what you're doing right now?! You call it aiding and abetting! ”
"The prince is calm for a while, don't be impatient." Ye Han said calmly, "Princess Qingyi's words are not credible, but they must not be believed, but the soldiers pay attention to marching and fighting, and then they are exhausted, Princess Qingyi's shouting just now, the soldiers have heard it, and they are still going to fight at this time, the impact on morale is too great, so we should not move the troops first." ”
