Chapter 33: Escape to Dragon City

After Princess Ming Yao made her decision, she slept peacefully and prepared to rush to Dragon City. Now Ming Yao has reached the border of the Ming Emperor Province, and then through the Wanting Province, he will come to the Hanging Yin Province where the Dragon City is located. At present, passers-by passing through the provincial border and entering other provinces must be strictly searched by soldiers, and they can only be released if no abnormal situation is found.

After Princess Ming Yao got up in the morning and checked out, she immediately rode away on horseback, and was intercepted by soldiers at the gate of the city. Going out from here is the only way to Dragon City.

"Stop, get off your horse and be checked!" the two soldiers crossed their spears and blocked Princess Ming Yao's way.

Princess Ming Yao wore a veil as usual, because she didn't want to recognize her in case someone from the imperial city was outside. But in this way, it attracted the attention of the soldiers guarding the gate. But fortunately, Princess Ming Yao was prepared, took out a black token, and shouted: "Bastard, I was ordered by the emperor to go to the frontier to convey military orders, 100,000 urgent, who dares to waste my time, when Emperor Ming investigates it, you can't afford it!"

When the soldiers heard that they were acting on the orders of the emperor, they immediately trembled with fright, and although they had never seen the black token, they could also recognize the sign as the symbol of the royal family.

"Your Excellency, please hurry, the little one doesn't know that you are from the Imperial City to the frontier, please forgive me. The soldiers hurried out of the way.

"Hmph!" Princess Ming Yao immediately rode her horse and galloped away, she just wanted to reach Dragon City as soon as possible.

In the imperial city, Murong Hei began to control power, and after the queen was insulted by him, she committed suicide by poisoning. This made him furious again, and immediately slaughtered Emperor Ming's original confidants and loyal ministers. Next, it was announced that Emperor Ming died, the queen committed suicide due to grief, and Princess Ming Yao became seriously ill after learning the news and recuperated in the deep palace. Now the wise prince inherits the throne, because the prince is too young to handle the government, so major matters are represented by Prime Minister Murong Hei.

The new Ming Emperor ascended the throne, and the first emperor died, which was a major event for the whole country, and as soon as the news came out, the whole country was in an uproar. Some are thinking about how to tie up with the current prime minister, and some are thinking about letting the wise prince and the current Ming emperor hold real power. This news also spread to other empires, and other empires may take action against the Minglong Empire, which is not a good thing for Murong Hei, but there is no way to do it. His original plan was disrupted and he was going to start a new one.

What he is most worried about now is that after Princess Ming Yao provoked trouble in other provinces and sent people to hunt down Princess Ming Yao, it is now the third day, and there is still no news. The magic scroll that Princess Ming Yao used at that time didn't know how far it teleported her, so she couldn't rest assured and asked Ander to discuss.

"Has the matter of hunting down the princess been delivered everywhere with flying eagles?" Murong Hei said in a deep voice.

"My lord, it has already been conveyed, and it is all passed on to our people, and the matter will not be leaked. Ander said.

"There is no news yet, where do you think Ming Yao is most likely to go?" Murong said underly.

"My lord, now there are our people in various provinces, the princess has followed you in the past few years, she should also know this, the only place we have neglected is Dragon City, but Long Shan was killed by us in the name of Emperor Ming, she won't go to Dragon City, right?"

"It's hard to say, the princess has been to various provinces in the past few years, although she has been secretly out, but she has also communicated with local officials, so it is not strange where she goes. She will definitely go to a place where there are people who can easily trust her, and slowly organize the forces first. Going to Dragon City is a double-edged sword for her, there are families who have been cursed by the emperor, they are the dead soldiers of the Ming Emperor, but the Long family is arrogant and has a stealing view of the imperial power. Murong Hei was also thinking.

"In this case, she definitely won't go to Dragon City, she doesn't need to take this risk. Ander said.

"No, she is likely to go to Dragon City, I understand her character, she is an adventurous girl, and there is no one to whom she can be trusted more than a cursed person, as for the Long family, she must have a way to convince them, or put the responsibility for Long Shan's death on to us. Instead of lobbying in other provinces with little hope, it is better to make a desperate bet to buy time in Dragon City. Murong Heidao.

"It's still a thorough analysis, so what should we do next?" said Ande.

"I don't worry about handing over this matter to anyone, you can do it yourself, and I will arrange the affairs of the army slowly. You now set off for Dragon City and find out that the princess will immediately take her back and don't divulge the secret. Murong Hei said solemnly.

"Okay sir, I'll do it!" Ander said goodbye.

Princess Ming Yao hurried during the day and found a place to rest at night, and did not stop much along the way, which is really precious for a princess, riding a horse all the way, she felt a little sore and sore on both sides of her thighs. Fortunately, she has been fond of martial arts since she was a child, and she often rides horses and shoots arrows in the palace, and now she is also a sixth-level warrior, otherwise she would not have been able to withstand the bumps along the way.

After a few days of traveling, now that he has reached the central part of the province of Wanting to travel, he will be able to reach Dragon City in ten days, and the closer he gets, the more anxious Ming Yao is in his heart.

She was thinking all the way, how to tell Dragon Fist when the time comes, it would be nice to be nice to him in Dragon City at that time. It's a bit passive now, once the relationship with the Long family is not handled well, she doesn't dare to continue to think about the rest of the matter.

During this period, Ander also organized a knightly unit and rushed in the direction of Dragon City, asking along the way about the gatekeepers of various towns. At the junction of the Imperial City Province and the Desire Province, he asked for clues, and basically determined that Ming Yao was going to Dragon City.

So he led the soldiers and hurried overnight, and one person on the road ran and killed two fast horses, for fear that he would not be able to catch up with Princess Ming Yao. Relatively speaking, the princess's speed is still slow, but she has done her best, and a pampered princess can't stand too much fatigue.

After a few more days, she finally came to Rongcheng, the city at the junction of the province of Wanting to Lin and the province of Xuanyin.

When I came here, it was getting late, and Ming Yao was tired, so she decided to rest for one night and rush to Longcheng the next day. But she didn't know that Ander came overnight, and arrived at Rongcheng when it was almost dawn.

Early the next morning, after Ming Yao got up and packed up, she immediately checked out and walked towards the city gate. This time, another soldier stopped her, and Ming Yao, as always, took out her present card and yelled at the soldier to get out of the way.

After the soldier got out of the way, another one stopped in front of her and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, where are you going in such a hurry?"

Ming Yao was shocked when she heard this, she was actually recognized, and when she looked at it, it turned out to be the city lord Xu Yi. Ming Yao calculated, maybe he didn't know about the imperial city yet, and said loudly: "Hurry up and get out of the way, I have something urgent to go to the border!"

"Her Royal Highness the princess is in a hurry, now that Emperor Ming has died and the prince has succeeded to the throne, the imperial city is the place where Her Royal Highness is most needed. Now the prime minister is very worried about the whereabouts of the princess, and where has he been informed in the whole country, and when he sees the princess, he must ask her to return to the imperial city as soon as possible. Xu Yi said a little helplessly.

Ming Yao secretly screamed badly, it seems that this Xu Yi is also Murong Hei's person, and shouted: "I'm too lazy to explain to you, hurry up and get out of the way, otherwise be careful that I will punish you!"

"Your Highness, don't be angry, I recognized you when you just entered the city yesterday, I didn't bother you when you were tired from the journey, now that you have rested for the night, we have prepared a carriage for you, don't work hard, now the Prime Minister is in a hurry to find you back to the imperial city, and leave for it immediately." Xu Yi still smiled modestly.

"Bastard!" Ming Yao picked up the whip and flicked it at Xu Yi, Xu Yi took a few steps back, and Ming Yao quickly slapped his horse and rushed out of the city gate.

But not far from the city gate, more than a dozen people appeared in front of her, completely blocking her way, the horses were so frightened that their front legs rose up, and Ming Yao almost fell off the horse.

"Your Highness Princess, we have been waiting here for a long time. You're going out without permission, and the Prime Minister is worried, so please return to the Imperial City as soon as possible. "Standing in the middle of this group is Ande, the commander of the Imperial City Imperial Forest Army.

When Ming Yao saw that it was Ande, she almost fell into despair, she had long known that Ande was Murong Hei's henchman, and he was a sky warrior, and it was impossible to escape under him.

"Ande! Murong Hei is a chaotic minister and thief, His Majesty Emperor Ming was killed by him, do you want to be with him. If you still remember the emperor's grace, help me organize troops as soon as possible and crusade against Murong Hei!" Princess Ming Yao shouted in a hurry.

"Your Highness, you must have misunderstood, we and the Prime Minister have always been loyal to His Majesty Emperor Ming, and now the wise prince has succeeded to the throne, the prince is young, and you still have to deal with many things, please return to the imperial city as soon as possible." Ander said.

"Zhi'er is just Murong Hei's puppet now, Murong Hei has great power at a glance, if you are really loyal to Your Majesty, you will help me destroy Murong Hei immediately!" Mingzhi shouted angrily.

"Since Her Royal Highness the Princess is reluctant to leave, we have no choice but to ask Her Highness to go back with our own hands. White Dragon, Haig, please go back!"

Standing next to Ander were Bai Long and Haig, both of whom were his apprentices, who had been sent to protect the princess, but now they were asked to forcibly escort Princess Ming Yao back to the imperial city.

"Your Highness, come back with us. The white dragon took a step forward and said.

"Look at which of you dares to touch me!" Princess Ming Yao grabbed the whip and glared at them.

Seeing this, Bai Long didn't say much, and flew to pull Ming Yao down, and Haige immediately grabbed the horse. At this moment, a figure descended from the sky.

"Peng!" fell among them.

"Let go of the princess!" the man shouted.

"Zhang Chong, it's you, why did you come here?" Ander recognized that it was Zhang Chong and couldn't help frowning, Zhang Chong was a sky warrior, he came to stir up the situation, and it was a lot of trouble.

"Hmph! Rebel ministers and thieves, it's not enough to kill the marshal, but even to kill His Majesty the Emperor Ming. Whoever wants to move the princess today has to pass my level first!" Zhang Zhong shouted loudly with remorse and grief. Too many things have happened in the Imperial City during this period of time, and Zhang Zhongzhong is in a mess, and he has always felt that something is wrong, but he can't find out. In the imperial city, I saw Ande hurriedly go out with the people and horses, and I felt strange and followed, and only after hearing their conversation did I understand that everything was Murong Hei's conspiracy.

"General Zhang Chong, why bother to die for the Ming Emperor who cursed your family, it is better to follow Lord Murong Hei, maybe I can help you lift the curse and no longer be controlled by others. Ander managed to buy Zhang Chong.

"You don't have to say it, you killed the marshal, and I will avenge the marshal today!" Zhang Chong raised his big knife angrily, obviously Ender's words had no temptation for Zhang Chong.

"Hmph, stubborn, it seems that you are not lightly harmed by the curse. Ander said.

Zhang Zhong slapped the white dragon away with one palm, pulled the princess behind him, snatched the horse from Haige's hand, and said: "Your Highness, I will hold them back for a while, you hurry to Longcheng, tell all the things to the two young marshals of Longquan and Longming, and let them organize troops to deal with Murong Hei." ”

"General Zhang, be careful yourself. Ming Yao knew that this was the only way now, so she stopped being verbose and rode away from the side.

Seeing this, Ande and the others wanted to chase, but were stopped by Zhang Chong with a knife.

"Damn!" Ander also drew his sword and stabbed at Zhang Zhong. At this time, from inside the city gate, many soldiers rushed out, and it was Xu Yi who brought help.

"Xu Yi, you lead someone to chase the princess back first!" Ander saw that the army came out and shouted to Xu Yi.

"Yes, Lord Archon. Xu Yi commanded the army to chase after Ming Yao, and a team of men and horses immediately chased after the princess.

Seeing this, Zhang Chong, who was fighting with Ender, immediately pulled out, flew towards the group of centaurs, urged the fighting spirit, and slashed down with a fierce knife.

There was a loud bang of "!!boom", and the team of people and horses was immediately shattered, and the flesh and blood were blurred, and it was unbearable to see. The other soldiers were so frightened that they retreated again and again, not daring to move forward.

"If you want to chase the princess, there is only one way to die!" Zhang Da shouted, and the soldiers were even more frightened.

"Zhang Chong, you will definitely die today!Let's kill this bastard first!" Seeing this, Ande was also angry, urging ten percent of his fighting spirit and flying towards Zhang Chong, this time there were two sky-level lieutenants who came with Ande. Sky Warriors, as the name suggests, can fight in the air, but flying in the air requires a lot of fighting energy, so Sky Warriors generally only fly up when fighting.

"Hahahaha, even if I fight for my life today, I won't let you catch up with the princess!" Zhang Chong also urged ten percent of his fighting spirit and scuffled with Ande and others.

Princess Ming Yao ran all the way, and when she heard the roar of fighting spirit behind her, she couldn't help but look back. At this time, Zhang Zhong fought with Ande and the others, and the energy body from the collision of fighting qi shook to the ground, and the dust was flying. The lowly soldiers did not dare to approach, otherwise they would be affected and their lives would be in danger.

Princess Ming Yao sighed helplessly, and resolutely turned her head to look ahead, now Zhang Chong is more auspicious, and only by finding a rescuer in Dragon City can he avenge him.

I don't know how long it took, Ming Yao had already stepped into the territory of Hanging Yin Province. At this point, she can identify herself as a princess and ask for help. Because this place is no longer under the control of Murong Hei, and it is under the jurisdiction of the Long family.

However, there are still a few days to go before reaching Dragon City, and there is still a danger of being overtaken by Ender during this time. Therefore, the princess can only identify herself every time she goes to a city, and explain that she is being hunted down by Ender and others, and let them intercept her.
