When I came, I traveled day and night, and it took me six days to get to Maicheng, but the way back to Shengjing took eleven days. It's not that the cars and horses don't have enough footsteps, but that along the way, we encounter ambushes one after another.

In the mountains, in the lodging shop, or simply in a blatant assassination, all the masters encountered along the way can be described as thorns and thorns. The original team of forty people, in the end, there were only a dozen people left, the king of Marshyuan and the seven princes were all injured, I was protected by Xuanyuan Chen, although I was not injured, but my heart and mouth turned blood and blood The problem became more and more serious, I couldn't eat and sleep well, and in just a few days, I lost a lot of weight.

These assassins were extremely cautious, and there was no clue on their clothes and weapons, and two of them were caught by us, and they actually committed suicide on the spot by biting the poison pills hidden in their mouths, which can be said to be extremely loyal to the masters behind the scenes.

But the more this happens, the more deliberate it becomes, and the people behind the scenes don't want to be exposed, but it backfires.

At this time, the old emperor was critically ill, the crown prince of the East Palace was vacant, and the position of the prince was only Helian Yunnuma, Helian Yunze and the two princes of Beijing could be with him, if the two could not return to Shengjing, the crown prince would be the second prince.

The Golden Dragon Throne has been a dispute between countless people since ancient times, and the two princes will naturally try their best to win each other, and it is understandable to send people to secretly Helian Yunnuma and others.

I suddenly thought of the assassination attempt at the Shoushan Hunting Ground a few years ago.

When I saved someone by mistake, the old emperor was furious after returning to Beijing and sent someone to investigate the matter thoroughly, but if a person wants to hide traces, no matter how he investigates, he can't find clues. Later, the Imperial Arrest Division checked and found out a piece of brocade silk from the southern Xinjiang country on the person who was stabbed to death by me with a crossbow, and concluded that it was done by the secret agents of the enemy country, with the purpose of hurting my prince and disturbing my people's hearts.

The old emperor was furious, sent people to rebuild the Shoushan hunting ground, and streamlined the number of autumn hunters every year, and this matter passed.

This is the result on the surface, but in fact, everyone knows the real situation, and no one can say anything if there is no evidence.

At that time, I was fledgling and cautious everywhere, lest the second prince would give me a cold arrow, but he was like a forgetful and did not trouble me.

I thought about it later, His Majesty and the Empress always called me into the palace, and the second prince must have been afraid of moving me and causing trouble.

"Drink some water." Xuanyuan Chen handed over a water bag, I shook my head, brushed the broken hair from my sideburns, and leaned against the trunk of the tree.

In order to avoid encountering this moment, the rest of us disguised themselves as a caravan, with a beard and a hat, and couldn't see your original appearance at all, Xuanyuan Chen took off his beard and disguised himself as a white-faced bookkeeper, but he was presentable.

Xuanyuan Chen took the water bag, frowned slightly, put his finger on my wrist, and his brow was much deeper.

Half a sound, he said, "Pour Mu, it's better for you to go back to Zhonglu with me, there are many medicinal materials in the Zhonglu Imperial Palace, and there are even more rare and exotic medicines, you go back with me to recuperate for a while, maybe it's good." Your body is very weak, and you really can't worry about it anymore. ”

"What did King Chen say?"

Helian Yunnuma, who was not far away, was discussing something with the Seven Princes, and when he heard this, he got up and paced over, and said, "Ning An is the county lord given by his father and the emperor, and he is the person of my Western Qi Emperor's Sect. In my palace hospital, there are the best imperial doctors in Xiqi, and there are many precious medicinal materials, as long as you return to Shengjing, Ning An's illness will also be cured, so why travel thousands of miles to Zhonglu. ”

Xuanyuan Chen frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "The king of Nuyuan doesn't know, the queen mother likes pharmacology, and he studied with him for a few years when he was young, and he is also familiar with orpiment, but he has never seen such symptoms as pouring Mu. The so-called medicine according to the symptoms, this disease is from the weakness, but somehow, but it is more and more weak, if there is no good medicine, I am afraid it is not good! ”

Helian Yunnuma glanced at me, and his eyes were much darker.

Yesterday, he gave me a blood clotting pill, the blood clotting pill is an extremely tonic thing, one is comparable to three hundred years of ginseng, after I took it, not only did the qi deficiency not improve at all, but became more and more serious, which is strange.

Even so, Helian Yunnuma still said, "Sixty miles ahead, it will be Shengjing, but it will take more than half a month to go to Zhonglu, if it is really not good, I am afraid that it will be even worse to go to Zhonglu." Let's talk ...... again."

Helian Yunnuma smiled, looked down, and said, "Although King Chen handed over the letter to invite the concubine, but the father did not agree to this family matter, the county lord of Ning'an is a person from my Xiqi Emperor's Sect, how can he go with the royal brother of the neighboring country at will, King Chen's words are inevitably abrupt." ”

Xuanyuan Chen smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to borrow a remnant leaf from my hair, and said, "I thought that the king of Nuyuan was also a person with a clear heart, so how could he care about such a worldly thing. ”

Helian Yunnuma's eyes darkened, and Xuanyuan Chen said again, "Everything should be people-oriented, the county lord is like this now, the most urgent thing is to cure her, and the rest will not be too late when she is better." ”

"Although this king wants to take the county lord back to Zhonglu, he doesn't have the slightest strange idea in his heart. The word love is about knowing each other and cherishing each other, and it is okay to be like each other. The king of Nuyuan always reminds the county lord of this king that he is the person of the emperor, isn't he afraid, this king said that the county lord took it to Zhonglu, so he detained it and didn't send it back? ”

The wind is blowing, and the leaves are flying.

A cold air suddenly erupted around Helian Yunnuma, and Xuanyuan Chen bent the corners of his lips, and he also looked up at the past.

"Qiang ......"

The two eyes suddenly collided, and their faces did not change, but I just felt that the air suddenly became much heavier.

Along the way, the two of them rarely spoke, but every time they spoke to each other, they were in such a situation, which made me a little big, so I simply straightened up my waist and said, "It's almost time, let's hurry up, and we can enter Shengjing in time." ”

Helian Yunnuma's expression softened a little, he didn't look at Xuanyuan Chen, but took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, walked up to me and handed it over, "This king still has a blood clotting pill here, you take it, after returning to Beijing, you go directly to the palace with this king, and this king will take you to the imperial hospital to have a look."

I nodded, but I didn't take the porcelain bottle, I just said, "It has no effect on taking this medicine, and I will enter the Holy Capital in a few hours, so don't waste the prince's good medicine." ”

Helian Yunnuma's eyes sank slightly, and he still put the porcelain bottle up, my heart was tired for a while, Xu is face was not good, Xuanyuan Chen hurriedly unscrewed the cowhide water bag again, I took it and took a sip, and I felt a lot more relaxed.

I was almost rested, Helian Yunnuma gave an order, everyone pushed the cart, the horse beat the horse, and I also got into the only carriage, and then slowly moved to Shengjing.

There were twists and turns along the way, and I thought that there would be no chaos near Shengjing, but I didn't know that I had only traveled more than thirty miles, and I stopped again.

I picked up the joint to see, not far away there were several teams of Praetorian Guards, there were barriers set up on the side of the road, several guards stood in the center of the road, passers-by were all stopped, and they could only pass after checking one by one.

"Oops! Official, what are you doing by pulling the little old man's beard! The little old man who was being examined exhaled with a headache.

The guard immediately shouted with a cold face, "What are you shouting, what are you shouting!" Cooperate with the investigation or not, now that Xiqi and Southern Xinjiang are at war, who knows if you are a meticulous work from the enemy country! You're shouting, and they're going to arrest you. ”

The little old man looked aggrieved, and said, "Oh, sir, you really wronged the little old man, the little one is a basket seller, and he lives in a small village two miles away." I passed by every day, just to sell the basket in the West Market, and buy rice and noodles before a few texts, the little old man has lived in Xiqi for most of his life, how can it be the enemy's meticulous work, they can all testify to me! ”

"yes, yes, he's not fine!" Behind him, several cloth-clothed people all nodded.

The guard searched his parcel again, and then Bu said impatiently, "Okay, let's go!" Next! ”

"Huh! Thank you, sir. The old man nodded and walked away with his things. After a few steps, there was another whining and shouting behind him, and it was the guard who was pulling at the other man's beard.

"What should I do?" I frowned slightly, and asked Helian Yunnuma, who was sitting on the side of the carriage and pretending to be a coachman.

Although this place is not far from the Holy Capital, how could the Praetorian Guards go twenty miles outside the city to investigate, I can see clearly, those guards have white sketches in their hands, it is Helian Yunnuma and the Seven Princes, and they are obviously coming at us.

His eyes deepened, and he shook his head and said, "Those in the back are all masters of the Great Interior, we have injuries on our bodies, and if we really fight, we will definitely suffer." It's better to retreat first and study it. ”

I nodded, "Okay." ”

He hummed, and then turned the carriage to retreat, but heard the guard in front of him shout, "Hey! A few of you, come here and get checked. ”

Helian Yunnuma pretended not to hear it, and continued to turn the carriage, and the guard immediately shouted again, "Hey! The chariot driver is talking to you, don't you hear! Come here and get checked! ”

shouted by name, and then pretending to be afraid that it would be futile, Helian Yunnuma had no choice but to smile slightly and stop the carriage, "Official, is it me again?" ”

Several guards looked at Helian Yunnuma's figure, exchanged glances, and immediately stepped forward behind a few Janissativa guards.

They covered the knife in one hand, and strode forward, walking to a place one meter away from the carriage to hold on, "Who is in the carriage, get out of the carriage quickly and accept the investigation!" ”

Helian Yunnuma smiled, "Official, my wife is in poor health, can you make it easier?" ”

"Less nonsense, don't get out of the car, deal with it carefully!"

"Qiang Chang ......"

The Praetorian Guards in the rear immediately took up their bows and arrows, tightened their bowstrings, and were ready to attack at any time.

"Oh, sir!"

I lowered my throat and picked up the curtain of the car to leak out a head, "A few officials don't want to be so fierce, okay, okay, isn't it just a pat, let's get out of the car." ”

I deliberately bared my teeth and smiled, and the faces of several guards suddenly showed a touch of disdain, and there was a faint sense of repulsion.

This can't be blamed on me, really, my face was too ugly by Xuanyuan Chen, my red lips were big and I didn't say anything, I also stuck two buck teeth, my thick eyebrows rolled my eyes, and my face was full of freckles. When others laugh, it is a country and a city, but when I smile now, it is really thrilling, and it is really difficult for a few guards.

I opened the curtain of the car, stroked my waist with one hand, and supported my big belly with the other, and I was about to get out of the car.

"Madame, be careful!" Helian Yunnuma on the side immediately came up to help me, I turned my head and deliberately grinned at him, I don't know if it was an illusion, I seemed to hear the sound of vomiting......

The leading guard frowned, I smiled secretly, I was going to go over to disgust him, and then stuff some silver over, who knew that I had just gotten off the carriage, and there was a sigh in the pile of people waiting for the investigation behind me, and then said, "Strange, this woman doesn't look like she is pregnant......"
