11 Under the nest

Mu Zicheng was anxious all the way, almost to the point of hating the war, if it weren't for this damn war, how could Ling Dongwu be in danger again and again, if it weren't for this hateful war that could turn the world into hell, how could he not even protect Ling Dongwu's thoughtfulness,

At that time, Mu Zicheng thought that if Ling Dongwu had three longs and two shorts, he would not live alone.

"You, what if you can't find me all the time,"

"If I can't find it in one day, I'll look for two days, if I can't find it in a year, I'll look for two years, if I can't find it, I'll look for you for the rest of my life," Mu Zicheng's tone was firm, no doubt,

Ling Dongwu buried his head in Mu Zicheng's arms, and tears fell unconsciously again, in this troubled world, he at least still has him,

Mu Zicheng used wood to pull out the large lump of mud that had been burned red, rolled it to the side and looked clean on the ground, and knocked it hard with the wood, the mud fell off, and the pungent aroma immediately dispersed quickly in the cave.

Mu Zicheng handed Ling Dongwu the place where there was a lot of meat on the chicken leg and the chicken breast, Ling Dongwu did not shirk, took it and munched it, and finally threw away the chicken bones that were gnawed clean in her hand with satisfaction, touched her stomach, she burped a little, and leaned back casually, "Brother Zicheng, it would be good if we could live like this for a lifetime," Ling Dongwu suddenly had a thought, even if it was weaving cloth and farming, even if it was porridge and side dishes, as long as there was a stable life, it was better than such a rain of bullets, and the day was not safe.

Mu Zicheng glanced at her lovingly, he knew that Ling Dongwu was yearning for a stable life, and he didn't want her to live a stable and comfortable life, and not let her go through such a desperate life, the wind and rain came and went, women, after all, they were not suitable for the battlefield, but there were no eggs under the nest, under the whole world, it was not the king's land, the shore of the land, the king's ministers, now that the three kingdoms are at war, where is there a stable place, if you want to live a stable and peaceful life, you can only finish this battle first,

Mu Zicheng sighed softly: "We should go, I knew on the way I came that the new emperor ordered the third prince to bring troops to Hengyang City to escort him, and it is estimated that the army is already on the way,"

"The third prince had worked hard to escape from the capital, will he still come this time," Ling Dongwu didn't believe that the three princes would come,

"Of course it will come, last time he was afraid because there were no troops around him, this time he came with 80,000 troops to escort, there are still 40,000 elite soldiers left in Texas, advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, what else is he afraid of,"

Ling Dongwu calculated in his heart, sure enough, Xiao Haotian did not frame Xia Wenxuan, he really secretly hid an army of 20,000, and after secretly escaping from Hengzhou, he brought the army back to Texas.

The two of them had eaten and rested for a while, it was almost afternoon, and the summer sun had evaporated all the sequelae left by the raging heavy rain last night.

"Dong'er, let's go down the mountain, I have an agreement with Jiao Hongliang, now take you to the road to find them,"

Of course, Ling Dongwu knew that it was impossible for her to hide here with Mu Zicheng and gnaw on the pheasant butt for a lifetime, she had to go down the mountain to face the endless bloody rain and bloody wind, and fight and fight, she took two deep breaths, and secretly encouraged herself in her heart, I am the Xiaoqiang who can't be killed, I am the Xiaoqiang who can't be killed......

"Okay, I've stayed enough in this cave, let's go," Ling Dongwu bowed his head and walked out of the cave with Mu Zicheng's support, looked at the mountain and shouted: "Comrades under the mountain, I, Ling Dongwu, are back again,

Mu Zicheng was happy when he saw that she had regained her vigorous appearance, and squatted down to carry her: "Dong'er, I'll carry you,"

"No, no need," in broad daylight, Lang Lang Qiankun, made Ling Dongwu a little embarrassed,

"Come on, your leg is injured and you can't walk,"

Ling Dongwu thought about it, he was his boyfriend, why not carry himself once, she obediently lay on his thick back, hugged his neck, his back was wide and warm, steady and made her feel at ease, she couldn't help it, she kissed him lightly on the neck,

Mu Zicheng felt the faint warmth coming from his neck, and in an instant it spread all over his body like an electric current, and he only felt the sweet warmth in his heart.

After Mu Zicheng and Ling Dongwu went down the mountain, it didn't take long to see the messenger speeding on the official road, and it was easy to know that Jiao Hongliang was already behind the vanguard team, and the two of them sat in the shade of the trees on the side of the road, waiting for Jiao Hongliang and the army to arrive, and in the evening, the two officially returned to the team.

Mu Zicheng and Jiao Hongliang took the forward army and horses, and came to Hengyang City two days later, at this time, the Northern Desert soldiers had launched a round of offensive, and the fierce battle lasted for a day and a night, the Northern Desert soldiers and the Southern Zhao soldiers were heavily wounded, and the Northern Desert Army saw that it could not break through Hengyang for a while, so they temporarily retreated to the camp, and the emperor and ministers of the Southern Zhao were also able to take a breath and immediately began to discuss the next step.

It was getting late, the gate of Hengyang City was closed, as if facing a great enemy, a team of soldiers patrolled, inside and outside the city, everyone was panicked,

The Hengyang defenders in the city, no matter how they shouted at Mu Zicheng, refused to open the city gate no matter what, saying that they were afraid that they would open the city gate by fraud, and it was pretended by the Northern Desert Tartars, although Mu Zicheng had followed Xia Wenxuan to fight for several years, but he only returned to the capital once when the old emperor died a while ago, and he was still in civilian clothes, and he didn't have a chance to see any officials in the capital, so no one knew anyone here, helplessly, they had to wait for Xia Wenxuan to arrive,

Three days later, Xia Wenxuan's army arrived, fortunately, the three days of the Northern Desert soldiers did not send troops to attack the city, the secret news said that the Northern Desert Army's King Kong god-like figure Xiao Haotian fell ill, and because he was sick, he could not command the battle, all of which caused the Northern Desert soldiers to suffer heavy casualties when they attacked the city for the first time, and many generals who participated in the first day of guarding the city also said that Xiao Haotian was indeed not seen at the scene of the siege on the first day.

After Ling Dongwu heard the news, she sneered in her heart, Xiao Haotian was like Megatron in the deformed gold and steel in her heart, never old, not sick, not dead, the ultimate boss villain who was impeccable, the people in this world couldn't fight him together, he would get sick, maybe he was playing some conspiracy,

Xia Wenxuan saw Ling Dongwu standing in the team that greeted him, and he stepped over excitedly, almost grabbing Ling Dongwu's little hand uncontrollably in front of everyone, "Dongwu, you can get out of Hengzhou safely, great,"

Since Ling Dongwu learned from Xiao Haotian that Xia Wenxuan secretly hid 20,000 troops, and quietly slipped out of Hengzhou City, she began to have some contempt for Xia Wenxuan in her heart, she was upright, and her face was naturally very cold: "Thank you, Lord Wang, for worrying,

Xia Wenxuan saw Ling Dongwu's face cold, remembering that day he fled in a hurry, and he never thought of rescuing Ling Dongwu in danger, he felt very guilty, sighed, and his voice was very desolate: "Dongwu, that day the soldiers were in chaos, and this king left in a hurry, he really looked for you, but in the chaos of the army, it was difficult to find you for a while, and in desperation, he would leave you out of the city, you are to blame this king,"

Although Ling Dongwu was angry in her heart, she was not a stingy person who held grudges, thinking that he had saved her and Mu Zicheng's lives after all, seeing that he was the prince and spoke earnestly to herself, "No, Dongwu has no intention of blaming the prince,"

The third prince is the best at observing words and feelings, seeing Ling Dongwu's eyes slightly red and his voice choked, he knew that this little girl had forgiven herself.

Xia Wenxuan is a dignified prince after all, as soon as he arrived at the city of Hengyang, he was recognized, the city gate slowly opened, and Wu Zhong, the general who guarded the city, greeted him, and when he saw Xia Wenxuan, he hurriedly accompanied him with a smile on his face, explaining that he was afraid of the Northern Desert people deceiving, so he did not let Mu Zicheng and them enter the city, Xia Wenxuan waved his hand and said: "Say, how many people does the emperor plan to let us enter the city,"

"Now there are many soldiers in Hengyang City, and the emperor issued an order to ask the prince to lead five thousand personal soldiers into the city,"

Xia Wenxuan smiled slightly: "Since there are already many soldiers in the capital, this king will not go in, set up camp outside the city today, and lead the army back to Texas tomorrow,"

Wu Zhong panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly appeased the three princes with kind words, and sent someone to ride a fast horse into the palace to greet the emperor.

This time Xia Wenxuan came back with a large army, and he was naturally incomparable with the panic of the last time, and the imperial city was now surrounded by the Northern Desert Army, of course the emperor did not dare to offend him, and after a while, he quickly returned: "The emperor has a decree, the third prince will enter the city with 20,000 elite soldiers, and the remaining 60,000 will be stationed outside the city,"

Xia Wenxuan was satisfied with Ling Dongwu, Mu Zicheng and the generals around him into the city.

On the night of entering the city, the new emperor set up a banquet to entertain the three princes and ministers, of course the three emperors knew that there was no good wine and no good banquet, for fear that it would be a Hongmen banquet, he ordered Ling Dongwu and Mu Zicheng and two masters to dress up as his entourage and enter the palace together.

In the banquet hall of the palace, the emperor was in the top seat, the three princes and other officials sat on both sides, Mu Zicheng and Ling Dongwu stood next to the three princes,

Exquisite dishes came up one after another, a group of female dancers played a beautiful sound on the side, and several singers in bright tulle twisted their waists in the field, singing and dancing.

Ling Dongwu peeked at the new emperor of Nanzhao Kingdom, his eyebrows were similar to those of the three princes, but his body was not as strong as the three princes, and he was completely a weak and merry son, Ling Dongwu sighed secretly, how could such a man raised in the pile of women in the deep palace take on the great task of protecting his family and resisting the enemy,

Sure enough, after a full meal and wine, everyone brought the topic back to the current situation, and a large number of officials began to put forward the idea of peace, and only a very small number of people strongly advocated resisting the Northern Desert Tartars.

During the debate, the emperor kept looking at the three princes and Prime Minister Song, the emperor did not embankment the three princes everywhere before ascending the throne, and now after ascending the throne, the title is certain, and the defense against the three princes has also disappeared a lot.
