Chapter 164: Disguise (2)
Hexi?
These people all appeared in Tuoba Yue's mind, and he suddenly felt that if he couldn't open his eyes tomorrow, then who would he not be most at ease?
It should be He Xi, a wry smile overflowed from the corner of his lips, I don't know what kind of reaction He Xi will have now, she must be resentful of herself at this moment, after all, he personally sent her to the palace, if she is gone, she will always be in the place where she resents, and she will be old, looking at her enemies, appearing in front of her every day, but she can't do anything.
What about Xiao Nai? He never worried, after all, as the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, Xiao Tian would not let his daughter be hurt in the slightest way.
"Yue Qi, if I really can't go back, you and He Qing will find a way to bring He Xi out, of course, if she wants to-" Tuoba Yue said suddenly.
"These things still have to be done by the prince himself, the character of the little master of Hexi, the prince knows, besides, there are some words that the prince has to explain in person." After speaking, Yue Qitou left without looking back.
Watching Yue Qi leave, Tuoba Yue only knew that the silence seemed to be the boundless sea spreading over, swallowing itself little by little, he leaned weakly on the window lattice, half-closed eyes, as if asleep.
It's just silent like this, as if time has slowed down, and even breathing has slowed down.
He rarely can be so calm, all these years, he has been galloping on this road, never stopped, and he has not looked at his heart so seriously.
Did he really aspire to that position? If you really yearn for it, why don't you have the slightest regret and regret at this time, but you are a little relaxed?
The beautiful but somewhat hideous face of his mother came to mind, she grabbed her arm, her armor was almost embedded in the arm, he was in pain, but he could only endure to look at his mother.
She said, "No matter what, you have to get to that position!" β
Yes, he has been walking in the hope of his mother, and the mother wants to put herself in that position when she is dying, that is the crying blood of the mother before she dies, he answered, and he will really go on.
Taking a deep breath, he slowly lay down and fell asleep.
On the other side, Yue Qi came out of the study and walked straight towards the stable, and a little guard saw Yue Qi and hurriedly asked, "Commander Yue, what are you going to do here?" β
But Yue Qi's face seemed to be frozen by the winter snow, and said, "Send a few people to the stable and wait for me." β
The man saw that Yueqi's expression was not worried, and he didn't dare to ask any more and hurriedly went down according to Yueqi's instructions, Yueqi arrived at the stable, selected a few horses that looked quite strong, and led them out.
In a short time, the man had already brought the people, and everyone on the seventh day of the month was assigned the reins, and said in a deep voice: "As soon as it gets dark today, you will follow me out of the city, and we will go to the Miao Domain." β
Miao Domain, which is where Gao Yuan is, as soon as he said this, there was a humane immediately: "But, Commander Yue, the people we sent to Miao Domain have been there for several waves, and no news has ever come back, and no one has come backβthis-"
"That's why I'm going to go in person, the sword mountain and the sea of fire, I want to break in, even if it's a ghost gate, I'm going to break in!" The seventh day of the month is a firm word.
Gao Yuan is Tuoba Yue's last hope, even if he fights for his life, he will bring Gao Yuan back from the Miao Domain.
Seeing that Yue Qi was like this, someone asked in a low voice: "Commander Yue, is it the prince he-"
Yue Qi glanced at the man coldly, when had everyone seen Yue Qi with such a look, they suddenly sighed, and they didn't dare to say anything more.
After some preparation, when the night sank, I saw several dark shadows leaving the city quietly. Everyone took a very hidden path, just to avoid everyone's eyes.
Tuoba Yue slept until the middle of the night, and suddenly woke up, the room was bright, the moon in the sky seemed to be an eye, peeking at the suffering of all beings on the ground, the moonlight was cold, and the eyes were also cold.
Tuoba Yue lost his sleepiness, forcibly got up, and walked to the front of the desk, he was wearing a thick cloak, and the big wool material touched his neck to bring a burst of warmth, he lifted the pen, lit the lamp himself, sat in front of the desk, and drew little by little.
He flipped his wrist, and the person's facial features appeared little by little in the pen, and she raised the corners of her lips slightly, as if there was some sarcasm, but this expression brought a little bit of playfulness and agility.
On the other side, in a small town on the outskirts of the city, a man in a dark robe was also standing in front of the window, looking at the moonlight outside.
It is He Xi, they have only settled down now, everyone has already gone down to rest, and only a few are left on duty at night, who are responsible for guarding.
Among them was Wang Lang, Wang Lang saw He Xi standing in front of the window, walked over and asked, "Little master, why don't you go back to rest?" β
He Xi wanted to hook the corners of her lips, but found that she couldn't do it, she simply gave up, and said in a deep voice: "I'm not sleepy-"
Wang Lang had nothing to do, and he also sat next to He Xi and said, "Little master, you say, can we enter Shu safely?" β
He Xi knew that he was referring to the fact that Shuzhong had been isolated, her eyes were lined with stars, and she nodded affirmatively: "It must be possible." β
Wang Lang glanced sideways at He Xi, and He Xi also followed Wang Lang's example and sat on the ground, ignoring the dirt.
"But-" Wang Lang wanted to say something, but was interrupted by He Xi: "No matter what happens, no matter how difficult this thing is, we have to do it, don't we?" After all, the prince and the people of Shu are still waiting for us. β
Wang Lang suddenly began to admire He Xilai, and he asked, "Why does the little master have to go in person?" You must know that the current situation in Shuzhong, if you are not careful, you will be in a catastrophe. β
I am already in calamity, He Xi suddenly said in her heart, she herself was stunned, yes, she was already in calamity.
"Isn't the king the same? Why take such a big risk and go to Shuzhong? He Xi didn't answer the rhetorical question,
Wang Lang shook his head and said: "We are different, the prince is the king, I am the minister, the king is in trouble, and the minister will naturally die after exhaustion." β
He Xi sighed lightly and said, "Then what is the difference between us?" Naturally, we also have a place to attach ourselves to the prince. Well, instead of thinking so much, it's better to think about how to break through the defense line in Shuzhong and not be discovered yet. β
As soon as He Xi's words came out, Wang Lang fell silent.
In order to prevent the spread of the epidemic, Tuoba Chen first evacuated some people and left Shuzhong separately, and, in order to prevent the people in the city from running out, he set up layers of strict defenses dozens of miles away from the main city.
Tuoba Chen's ruthlessness is beyond the imagination of others, but such a thing sinks to the bottom of the sea like a boulder, without the slightest ripple, everyone is selfish, those people in the city not far from Shuzhong, seeing such a tragic behavior, no one will stand up and speak, because once these people enter their own city, if they bring the epidemic, then the people who will die below are themselves, their relatives, and friends.
In this contrast, there is naturally no one to organize, and they accept such protection with peace of mind.
Tuoba Chenββ
The corners of He Xi's lips raised a smile, what is it for the people, he is just using human nature to satisfy his selfish desires, he doesn't care about the thousands of people in Shu, how can he care about the life or death of those people?
There was only one reason why he did this, that is, he wanted to trap Tuoba Yue in Shu, so that he could sit back and relax.
Thinking like this, He Xi's fingertips became colder and colder, and suddenly there was a sound of fighting outside the door, He Xi and Wang Lang glanced at each other, but the voice only sounded, and then fell silent, as if a person was subdued.
Wang Lang asked in a loud voice, "What happened?" β
Immediately, a guard's voice came: "Tell the Commander, we have found a sneaky man!" β
He Xi was a little flustered in his heart, their actions this time were extremely secretive, how could anyone pay attention?
He Xi's eyes were slightly cold, if Tuoba Chen's people found out about herself, not to mention the people she was carrying, even the Ruyi who were now in the palace, they would not be able to escape death.
But when He Xi saw the man, he breathed a sigh of relief, this person was not a spy, but a little beggar, about a teenager, maybe a little hungry, so he sneaked into the courtyard to steal food.
His hair was all glued together, unkempt, and there were leaves and grass branches on it, and his face was bruised and swollen, thinking that he had just been beaten by this guard.
He Xi made a gesture to let go, and the guard looked at Wang Lang beside him, Wang Lang nodded faintly, but He Xi didn't care about these details.
The little beggar was let go, and hurriedly stuffed the bun in his hand into his mouth, as if he was afraid that He Xi would snatch back what he had just stolen, he ate in a hurry, and he didn't swallow a mouthful, so he immediately stuffed another mouthful, but he didn't want to choke at once, coughed violently, and dropped some bun crumbs, he didn't care about getting dirty, and hurriedly picked up the thing with his hands and ate it again.
With such an act, even Wang Lang couldn't help frowning when he saw it: "You eat slowly, we didn't say we were going to rob you." β
As soon as these words came out, the little beggar looked at Wang Lang in disbelief and said, "You really don't rob it?" β
He still has buns in his mouth that he hasn't swallowed, and his speech is slurred, but he can vaguely hear that his voice is green, he should be a teenager.
He looked at Wang Lang and the others vigilantly, and quickly ate up the buns in his hands, and then he burped contentedly.
He Xi asked, "Are you from Shuzhong?" β
The young man's eyes were particularly bright in the moonlight, and he looked at He Xi suspiciously, "How do you know?" β
