Xiao Budo's riding skills were very good, but he couldn't catch up with the convoy in Chang'an.

He took Xiao Jin'an, but before he arrived at the city gate, he was intercepted by the soldiers who had just come to report the news.

"Prince, the grain depot is on fire!"

After the soldier shouted this sentence hoarsely, Xiao Budo's face changed drastically, and he suddenly grabbed the reins.

The galloping horse suddenly stopped, and Xiao Budo, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, instantly fell off the horse's back.

Xiao Budo's eyes were quick, and he quickly grabbed one of his arms, which saved him from a fierce collision.

After dismounting, Xiao Budo pulled his younger brother to check, "An, are you okay?" ”

He glanced at his younger brother worriedly, Xiao Jinan's eyes were red and swollen, his eyes were full of confusion and loss, and his sad look made his heart astringent.

Xiao Budo endured the pain and said calmly: "An, there is a fire in the grain depot, my brother is going to preside over the overall situation, and I can't take you out of the city, you go home, okay?" ”

Xiao Jinan didn't speak, just looked at the direction of the city gate a little sluggishly.

Knowing that he would not be able to accept this matter at all for a while, Xiao Budo did not persuade him, but just ordered the personal guards, "Send him back to the palace." ”

The sudden fire in the grain depot must have been maliciously set on fire, either to burn the grain and grass to cut off the back road of the father, or to disturb the northern land so that they could not stop the trip to Chang'an.

The enemy is in the dark, and danger lurks.

Ann can't leave the city.

He couldn't leave Ann alone to face the dangers of the shadows.

What made Xiao Budo feel distressed was that when the guards hugged Xiao Jinan from his hands, the little guy didn't struggle, nor did he lose his temper, but just bit his lip and whimpered like an injured young beast.

Xiao Budo's heart tingled, but he had to turn around and leave.

He took his attendants to check the grain depot, and Xiao Jinan was sent to the palace by his personal guards.

The convoy to Chang'an had already left Beidi City, but Princess Jinyang was still standing at the gate of the palace, silent as if she had turned into a stone lion at the door.

"Meet Your Highness."

After the guards saluted, Princess Jinyang suddenly came back to her senses, she looked at her young son with tears on her face, her eyes were full of pity and pain, and she said softly: "What did Yan tell you?" ”

Xiao Jinan was silent.

Princess Jinyang sensed that something was wrong, and asked the guards again, "There are so many of you, don't you have a convoy in Chang'an?" ”

The guard said respectfully: "Your Highness, before we arrived at the city gate, someone came to report that the grain depot was on fire, and the eldest prince had already taken someone to put out the fire." ”

Princess Jinyang's face changed suddenly, and she said sharply: "Grain depot? What is the fire? How many granaries were burned? ”

Xiao Jian was fighting outside, and Qu Ji and Yan were forced to become protons, and the grain depot did not burn early or night, but it burned at this time......

She squinted slightly, her eyes full of fierce light.

Father.

Do you not want me to be separated, but also want me to lose my husband and love, and my family to be ruined?

Princess Jinyang clenched her fingers, her eyes full of hatred.

Suddenly, a hoarse voice sounded, "Mother, it's time for me to go to the barracks, I haven't trained in cavalry and archery today." ”

Princess Jinyang's heart tightened, and she hurriedly looked at him worriedly, "An, your injury is not healed yet, wait until you are well, and then practice riding and archery." ”

Xiao Jinan said: "I'm already fine, I want to practice riding and archery, I want to study the art of war, I want to become a more powerful general than my father, so that no one can persecute my mother anymore, and I can't snatch Yan from me anymore!" ”

The young son, who has always been naughty and playful, grew up at this moment, but Princess Jinyang couldn't see half of the joy on her face.

She couldn't persuade her son, and she couldn't teach this young son who didn't know how long she could stay by her side, so she asked her to invite the teacher who taught riding and archery to the palace and teach him in the palace.

After Xiao Jin'an was settled, she instructed Zhang An, "Send an order to go down, close the city gate, and make every effort to search for suspicious people, if it is verified, kill!" ”

Zhang An was ordered to leave.

Princess Jinyang stood at the door, looking in the direction of Chang'an with an expressionless face.

Father.

The daughter is going to rebel.

So you should rest assured, right?

……

Post.

"How is Xiao Yan'er?"

When Zhong Xing entered the door with hot soup, Xiao Quji was coughing and feeding medicine to Jin Yan, and the brother and sister were sick one by one.

Looking at this scene, a bold idea popped up in Zhong Xing's mind again.

Regicide.

But for a moment, he threw this terrible thought behind him.

Naturally, he was not afraid of Huangquan and did not dare to assassinate, but he knew what the consequences of assassination would bring, so he would not take it lightly.

"Take a break, I'll take care of Xiao Yan'er." Jong Hang Road.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that Xiao Quji will fall first.

Xiao Quji shook his head and rejected him, "I know what my body looks like, I won't hold it up." ”

He is in poor health, but he often deals with government affairs, and often takes a car outside the car, but Yan'er, who is too young and sick, and has a limited number of times to leave the palace.

It's been a bumpy day today, and she vomited all the way I don't know how many times, which really hurt her.

Looking at Jin Yan's pale little face, Xiao Quji couldn't help but start to regret it, how could they be moved by Yan'er's words and agree to her going to Chang'an?

Thinking of this, he spoke: "Cousin, I'll lead these people away in a while, and you take Yan'er back to the Northland......"

"Don't think about it, it's impossible." Jong Hang Road.

Xiao Quji's face changed slightly, "Why?" ”

Zhong Xingdao: "It's late." ”

Motioning for Xiao Qujian to drink the soup first, he continued: "If you are still in the Northland, there are your own people everywhere, unless the army presses the border, no one can take Yan away from the Northland, but we have already left the Northland." ”

Along the way, Xiao Quji sat in the carriage to take care of Jin Yan, and rarely explored the situation outside, so he didn't know what was going on.

But Zhong Xing saw it clearly.

He said: "Outside the Northland, there are many suspicious people along the way, I have observed and tested many times, and found that some of them are from the palace, some are from the army, and some of them are like miscellaneous beards... In this case, even if the palace guards can cover me and Xiao Yan'er to leave, how can we return to the Northland? ”

I'm afraid that not only will I not be able to return to the Northland, but I will also fall into a more dangerous situation.

Xiao Quji was very smart, he just didn't notice the movement outside, and as soon as he heard Zhong Xing say, he understood everything.

He couldn't help but sigh: "Why is this so! ”

The eldest father wants to be a general admired by all people.

Even though my father had the ambition to expand the territory, he never disobeyed the edict of the court.

Mother is a princess of a country, and she has no motive to rebel.

But over the years, everything the court has done has forced them to rebel.

His Majesty's rebellion is the country's society, which is a monstrous power, and he is afraid that someone will tainted his authority, so he wants to kill all those who may touch power.

However, fathers and mothers also have reverse scales.

Now, His Majesty has finally succeeded in touching their scales.

Since Your Majesty is so afraid of the rebellion in the Northland, let's make a rebellion and show it to Your Majesty!
