Yunzhou, Wanjia military barracks.

"Lord Wang, Lord Zhang is back." The herald entered the tent and spoke respectfully towards the Ten Thousand Mountains.

The man looked up from the strategic map, his eyes dark and he spat out only two words; "Please."

"Yes." The herald agreed, and immediately hurriedly walked out, and it didn't take long to see Zhang Xingzhi walking in from the outside, and just saw Wanzhong Mountain, Zhang Xingyi didn't say a word, and knelt directly on the ground.

Wan Chongshan stepped down from the main seat and helped Zhang Xingzhi up with one hand, he looked at Zhang Xingzhi's eyes, almost without asking, he understood everything.

"The subordinates have the trust of the prince, and when the subordinates bring people to Lotus Village, the family has disappeared, and I am afraid that the emperor's people will take us one step ahead and take the little prince away." Zhang Xingzhi said, only to feel sorry in his heart, he has been hanging his eyes, almost dare not look up at Wanzhong Mountain, now is a critical juncture, although the imperial court has heavy soldiers, but those soldiers are all home-raised, most of them have never been on the battlefield, how can they be able to defeat the battle-hardened Wanjia army, and the wolf-like tiger of the Liao Iron Cavalry?

But at the moment, the bad thing is that Qingzhou's mother and son are all in the hands of Li Yunzhao, this pair of mother and son, one is Wan Chongshan's sweetheart, and the other is his own flesh and blood, if Li Yunzhao threatens these two people, what will Wan Chongshan do? If he can't give up the mother and son, wouldn't he have to give up the low-hanging fruit?

Zhang Xing's heart was stunned, and he hung his head deeply.

Wan Chongshan's eyes were deep, he didn't say anything, only patted Zhang Xingzhi's shoulder.

"Lord Wang, on the way back to Yunzhou, my subordinates heard that the emperor had already set off from Beijing and led the Imperial Forest Army to Yunzhou." Zhang Xingzhi raised his eyes and looked towards Wanzhong Mountain.

"Yes, he wants to go on a personal expedition." Wanzhongshan bowed slightly.

"But the princess and the little prince...."A sentence blurted out from Zhang Xingzhi's lips.

"Their mother and son are in the hands of Li Yunzhao." Wan Chongshan's voice still sounded steady, but in that steady, there was an unknown undercurrent, after speaking, he paused, and said something again; "Not only their mother and son, but also the mother of this king, is also in his hands."

"Lord Wang, forgive your subordinates for saying too much, if when the two armies are fighting, Li Yunzhao threatens the princess and the little prince, what should the prince do?" Zhang Xingyi gritted his teeth and finally asked what he said in his heart.

Wan Chongshan's dark eyes were bottomless, he listened to Zhang Xingzhi's words, his lips pursed slightly, he didn't say anything, only took two steps forward, and looked out of the night through the window of the tent.

The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the crescent moon shadow was hazy, like the shy face of the light boat.

Wan Chongshan thought of his wife and children, only to feel a sharp pain in his heart, he slowly clenched his fingers, he stood like that for a long time, so long that Zhang Xingzhi had given up, and felt that Wan Chongshan would not speak, but Wan Chongshan suddenly spoke.

"The world says that this king is a wolf, ambitious, and rebellious, and wants to take away the country of Daqi." Wan Chongshan's voice was calm, and he said slowly, "But only this king himself understands that this king did all this just for her and the child." ”

Zhang Xing was shocked.

"You ask this king, if Li Yunzhao threatens this king with her and the child, how will this king choose?" Wan Chongshan turned around and looked at Zhang Xingzhi, his eyes were very dark and bright, Zhang Xingzhi met his gaze, a layer of cold sweat involuntarily broke out in the palm of his hand, and he said in a dumb voice; "What will the prince do?"

"If this king tells you that this king is willing to let go of this low-hanging fruit world, and only wants to exchange for their mother and son, do you believe it?"

"Lord Wang?!" Zhang Xingzhi's eyes moved, and he looked towards Wanzhong Mountain in disbelief.

"You must be thinking in your heart, as the commander of the Wanjia army, this king must lead by example, and he must put the interests of the Wanjia army first in everything, and he shouldn't be trapped by the love of his children, right?"

Zhang Xingzhi listened to Wan Chongshan's words, but he felt speechless, just because Wan Chongshan did say what was in his heart, he arched his hand and said; "The prince's mother, wife, and son are all in the hands of the court, and the prince's heart is anxious, which is really human nature, but the prince, now that the Wanjiajun has embarked on this road, there is no possibility of turning back, thousands of soldiers, their lives are on the shoulders of the prince, subordinates..... Please also think twice. ”

Wan Chongshan didn't make a sound for a long time, and only after a while did he nod and whispered; "You are right, their lives are on the shoulders of this king, and they are loyal to this king, so how can this king be unrighteous to them."

It was late at night, and the light boat had not yet slept.

Along the way, she rushed to Yunzhou with the army of the imperial court, and in the carriage of her and Forsythia, in addition to the master and servant, there was also the young Wan Xiaobao.

Qingzhou suddenly met the child, it didn't hurt enough, and Wan Xiaobao was weak, all the way, Qingzhou's mind was all on the child, and he almost worked hard to take care of the child, and finally let Wan Xiaobao slowly accept her, and she didn't cry and call her mother every day like before.

The army was stationed outside the city of Yunzhou.

Qingzhou with the child, living on the right side of Li Yunzhao's main tent, twelve hours a day, are guarded by guards, like Li Yunzhao, their mother and daughter are also in the center of the army, waiting for leisure, even a fly, can not fly to the side of the mother and son.

"Miss, don't complain about the slave and the maid, the emperor can be regarded as a good ..... to the young lady and the little prince" Forsythia said in a low voice, seeing that Li Yunzhao valued Qingzhou and the child so much, he couldn't help but speak.

Qingzhou listened to Forsythia's words, she smiled slightly, her pupils were calm, and she only gently held the child in her arms, even if the child was already asleep, she was still reluctant to put the child down.

"Where does he value me and Xiaobao, he wants to take our mother and son to blackmail Wanzhong Mountain, naturally he doesn't dare to let me and the child have any accidents." Qingzhou gently patted the child's back, her voice was gentle and a little bleak, thinking of Wanzhong Mountain, Qingzhou's heart was sour, it turned out that even at this time, as long as he thought of that person, his heart would still hurt.

"But the prince ....." Forsythia cautiously glanced at Qingzhou's face and hesitated; The prince has already married Princess Nalan, counting the days, Princess Nalan is afraid that she will give birth soon, if the emperor really uses Miss and Xiao Shizi to threaten the prince, the prince will ..... Will you agree to the emperor's conditions to save the young lady and the little prince? ”

The gesture of the light boat stopped.

"Miss, if the prince cares about you and Xiao Shizi, promises the emperor, and saves you and Xiao Shizi, but with the Hu princess here, how will Miss and Xiao Shizi live?" Forsythia said, only to feel full of sadness, remembering that it was not enough to have a Mrs. Wen before, and now there is another Huren princess around Wanzhongshan, if Qingzhou returns to him, there is a wife in front of him, and there is a newcomer in the back, how can he have a foothold in Qingzhou?

"But if the prince is not coerced by the emperor, the emperor will ..... How will you and Xiao Shizi be treated? Forsythia said another sentence, if Wan Chongshan didn't care about the life or death of Qingzhou's mother and son, for Li Yunzhao, Qingzhou's mother and son would be equivalent to useless waste, and when the time comes, who can know what Li Yunzhao will do? Even if he has a little thought about his own young lady, but Xiao Shizi is the flesh and blood of Wanzhong Mountain, as the king of a country, how can he raise the children of others by his side?

Forsythia's words, like a dagger, pierced Qingzhou's heart, these words, even if Forsythia doesn't say it, Qingzhou understands, I don't know how many times I thought about it, as Forsythia said, whether it is staying by Wanzhongshan's side, or staying by Li Yunzhao's side, leaving their mother and son are all ups and downs and thorns.

Qingzhou silently looked at the child's sleeping face, and only said quietly; "Forsythia, you know what? I really want to take this child away and fly away, go to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, put a refreshing yard, and raise Xiaobao well, there is no princess, no son, let alone an emperor, and.... There won't be him...."

Forsythia understands that this "he" refers to Wanzhong Mountain.

"Miss...."

"Now it's up to him how he chooses." Qingzhou interrupted Forsythia's words, her eyes were clear and bright, and she looked at Forsythia, "If he still has the love of father and son, he will never ignore Xiaobao's life and death." ”

"Miss, what about you?" Forsythia asked.

"Me?" Qingzhou read a word, her beautiful eyes fell on the child, she didn't say anything, only a touch of bitterness appeared in her eyes.

After Li Yunzhao arrived in Yunzhou, he almost never closed his eyes to rest, and regardless of the obstruction of civil officials and military generals, he led the soldiers who came from afar, put on armor, and rushed towards the Wanjia army.

The Wanjia army waited for work, and experienced a hundred battles, plus there were thousands of mountains to personally supervise the battle, only the army of the imperial court was defeated, Li Yunzhao returned, Xu was depressed in his heart, and he was running around the road, and just returned to the barracks, he was seriously ill, and he never got out of bed for several days.

Until this day, Li Yunzhao's condition improved slightly, he supported his sick body and came to the tent of Qingzhou, but unexpectedly opened the curtain, but saw that there was no one inside.

"Where did Concubine Chen go?" Li Yunzhao was startled, and as soon as he said a word, he saw that the attendants and soldiers behind him were all kneeling on the ground in unison, and no one dared to say anything.

"Gu asks again, where did Concubine Chen go?" As soon as Li Yunzhao finished speaking, he coughed violently.

"Your Majesty, Lord Shangguan ordered someone to send Concubine Chen to the battlefield early in the morning." Finally, an attendant couldn't bear it anymore and told Li Yunzhao the truth.

"Shangguan Mingyu, he's so bold!" Li Yunzhao was furious when he heard this, and he still remembered that when he first arrived in Yunzhou, Shangguan Mingyu had said that he threatened Concubine Chen's mother and son, but he refused, but he didn't expect that Shangguan Mingyu dared to take advantage of his serious illness to cross the sea and send Qingzhou's mother and son to the front line!
