Mu Lianche and Bai Xing, who returned to the Da Ying military camp, were still not easy, and with the important military information obtained in the Beichuan Kingdom, Da Ying won several major battles in a company. The palace in the capital heard the news and was jubilant, and Mu Lianche took the opportunity to ask the emperor to go all the way north to attack Beichuan Kingdom. When Mu Zhong heard the frequent good news from the front, he was overjoyed and sent a large army to support, and Mu Lianche led the troops to attack Beichuan Kingdom. The Beichuan army was defeated, and it was difficult for Xiang Xiyang to resist a multi-faceted attack. In less than a month, most of Beichuan was captured. At this time, Kitagawa asked to negotiate with Daiying.

Even in the face of such a dilemma, the young emperor still maintained his composure and calmness, and the domineering momentum that did not match his age made Mu Lianche also admire

"As long as the emperor agrees to my request, we will immediately withdraw from the army and return the peace to the people of Beichuan."

"Recognize Beichuan as a subject country of the Great Ao? I will never agree to such conditions for the loss of the country. ”

"Now that hundreds of thousands of my army has been assembled, and the capture of the capital is just around the corner, the emperor should think about it for the people of Beichuan."

"Mu Lianche, even if I give everything to Beichuan, even if I fight to the last person, I will not agree to such conditions. Come! Arrest him! As soon as the words fell, dozens of people dressed as dark red guards appeared in an instant, surrounding Da Ying's people.

"Wait! What is the emperor going to do? ”

"Humph! If I hadn't believed in your hypocrisy, Beichuan would not be in such a state today! I'm a sinner for the ages, but you can't live! ”

A cold light flashed through the crowd, and before everyone could see what it was, Bai Xing's sword had already been placed on the neck of Beichuan Guojun, "Let them stand down" Bai Xing said calmly in the emperor's ear

The young monarch had ever encountered such a situation, and his composure no longer existed, and he trembled and said, "Stand down..."

Bai Xing took Yuan Jing and walked straight towards the outside of the main hall, several Da Ying envoys walked outside the hall together with Mu Lianche, and several imperial guards followed.

Seeing the group walking towards the palace gate, Yuan Jingqiang pretended to be calm and said, "Don't think that you can rescue the envoy by kidnapping me, I won't go one more step with you, you can do it here and see if you people can survive!" ”

Bai Xing still said in that unhurried tone: "Your Majesty can put your life and death out of the way, but if Beichuan is gone, wouldn't Beichuan be destroyed without a single soldier." If I were Your Majesty, I would have thought about how to survive first, and Your Majesty ordered people to bring five fast horses over, and no one was allowed to follow."

"Someone! Lead five fast horses! No one is allowed to follow."

Bai Xing, Yuan Jing and Mu Lianche stepped on Ma Jiechen and left. The rush did not stop, and on the way, he met Beichuan's rescue team, and everyone ran away during the fight, and Mu Lianche and Yuan Jing disappeared. It turned out that the two were chased into the valley and lost.

"Why did you bring me here?"

"I don't want to be stuck here." Mu Lianche looked around and said

"You don't know where this is?" Yuan Jing didn't seem to believe it

"Let's take a break, the pursuers won't find this place."

After resting for less than half an hour, with no pursuers or companions coming, Mu Lianche realized that they were really lost.

"Your Majesty is waiting for me here, I will explore the way, and if I find the way, I will come back and take Your Majesty away."

"No, you are not allowed to go, you have to find a way to go together"

Mu Lianche was very helpless in his heart, the kidnapped person had to follow the kidnappers closely, so he had to follow him, for fear that he would lose it, so he could only walk slowly. The two of them were still clueless when they were going around and around, and Yuan Jing's physical strength gradually couldn't support it, and his stomach was rumbling. The purpose of the two also became to find food, Mu Lianche found some fruit to eat, and found a large stone cave sheltered from the wind before dark.

Yuan Jing was depressed at this time, tired and hungry, "Can we still find our way?" Will you be trapped here? ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, we will definitely go out, we will spend the night here tonight, and someone will come to us tomorrow," said Mu Lianche as he lit a fire, knowing that this fire would protect them from mosquitoes and wild beasts at night. Yuan Jing has been pampered since he was a child, and he has ever encountered this situation, and the slowly rising flames at this time can soothe his emotions that are close to collapse.

"What if they can't find us?"

"Then I'll find a way out, I will."

"Hmph, can I still trust you?!"

"Does Your Majesty have any other choice right now?" Mu Lianche was fiddling with the fire, he was actually very guilty of Yuan Jing in his heart.

Mu Lianche didn't sleep much this night, he was thinking about why his hidden guard didn't appear at this time, and on the other hand, he was afraid that the fire would go out, so he got up from time to time to add firewood. The two of them waited until dawn to continue looking for their way. Finally found a stream

"Your Majesty! We are saved! Follow the stream and we'll definitely find the main road! ”

"But I really can't walk, I've eaten a few wild fruits since yesterday, and I'm hungry and have abdominal pain." Yuan Jing bent over and squatted on the ground

"Your Majesty will lie down under the tree for a while, and I'll go catch some fish to roast." Mu Lianche broke a few branches, made a simple harpoon, and stood in the stream to catch fish. Yuan Jing asked impatiently on the side, "When will there be fish to eat, hurry up!" ”

"If your majesty wants to eat the fish quickly, then find some dry wood, and remember not fresh branches, but dry and crisp branches that fall on the ground."

"How dare you order me!" Although he said it, Yuan Jing still got up to collect firewood. It didn't take long for Mu Lianche to catch a fish, and he excitedly raised the fish and shouted, "Your Majesty, you have caught a fish!" "But in front of my eyes, it slowly turned black and I lost consciousness.

When he woke up, he saw Wonjing's anxious gaze on him

"How are you? What's uncomfortable? ”

"Why am I lying here?"

"You just passed out in the stream, and it took me a lot of effort to drag you ashore, are you okay?"

"Oh, probably I bowed my head for too long, and I got up and fainted, but now it's fine. What about fish? ”

"Where did I care about the fish, I probably fell into the stream and washed away."

"Huh? The fish I had worked so hard to catch were gone, and we had to eat wild fruit again. ”

"You lie here and rest, and I go catch fish." As he spoke, he really rolled up his sleeves and took his harpoon to the stream to spear fish

"Your Majesty, be careful." As soon as Mu Lianche regained some strength, he began to busy lighting a fire.

After a while, Yuan Jing really caught a fish, and there was more than one. The young man had a proud smile on his face, and stood in front of Mu Lianche with the trophy, "It's fun to catch fish." "At this time, Yuan Jing is really a 16-year-old brilliant boy. Mu Lianche recalled the process of baking fish in the first place, and began to pick it up. I silently thought in my heart, waking up in vain, they must have escaped safely at this moment. The aroma of the grilled fish and the swirling smoke were all comforting, and Mu Lianche carefully peeled off the tender white fish meat and handed it to Yuan Jing as if he had been waking up at the beginning

"It's the most beautiful delicacy I've ever tasted, and the grilled fish is so delicious! You're really good at it! Much better than the Imperial Kitchen. ”

"Your Majesty is so hungry, how can fish and meat without seasoning compare to a feast in the palace."

"It's comparable, when I return to the palace, I will eat grilled fish every day." Swallowing a bite of fish, Yuan Jing said without thinking

"I... Can you still go back to Beichuan Imperial Palace? ”

"Can Your Majesty believe me again, I guarantee that Your Majesty will be able to return to Beichuan unscathed."

"Mu Lianche, do you know, when you fainted, I thought about killing you, Beichuan because you are facing the death of the country, I have become a sinner through the ages because of you, I can't wait to break your body into thousands of pieces!"

"If Your Majesty is willing, you can still kill me at this moment, and I will not have any resistance."

"I can't do it, it's because I'm too cowardly."

"Your Majesty has the heart of a benevolent holy lord, this is not cowardice, this is the well-being of the people of Beichuan."

"Hmph, you seem to know me better, I want to wait for my people to come to the rescue and catch you back!"

"But what if it's the people who find us first?"

"Then let's wait and see, who can find me faster in Beichuan."

After a full meal, the two finally cheered up and continued on the road, the stream gradually became turbulent, there was a waterfall in front of them, if you want to continue down the water, you must go down to the bottom of the waterfall, the place to climb down is very steep and dangerous, the two looked at the terrain and hesitated again and again but decided to climb down. The rocks on the edge of the waterfall are slippery and you can fall if you're not careful. Yuan Jing's physical strength was not good, one didn't step on it and was about to fall, Mu Lianche grabbed his arm with one hand, Yuan Jing hung in the air, trying to grab something, but as soon as he moved a little, Mu Lianche found that he couldn't support it, "Your Majesty, don't move, I can't catch it!" ”

"Help!" Yuan Jing's face turned pale, as if he was about to cry

"Your Majesty, don't be afraid, I will shake it hard, Your Majesty must reach out and grab that branch! We can! ”
