"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, and the Dong family of this palace is grateful."

"If the mother says this, the slave must bring it."

Subsequently, Qin An added.

"Niangniang, the emperor also said that there are a lot of government affairs today, so you can greet the second lady to eat first, and you don't have to wait for him."

Lin Wanyi nodded, and the emperor also knew that if he was here, the second lady Yun would definitely not be able to eat enough.

So he simply didn't show up.

Anyway, after dinner, the second lady Yun left the palace.

When the time comes, the emperor will come to accompany him.

"Father-in-law Qin has worked hard for this trip, Xiaoluzi."

"The minions are here."

"Take Father-in-law Qin to get some hot food, and then send Father-in-law Qin out."

"The minions obey."

Qin An smiled when he heard this, this reward was rewarded in his heart.

Since his younger brother followed the second prince to the prince's office, there were not many opportunities for him to see him.

So, it's good to have a little time to talk now.

So he respectfully withdrew.

On the way to the kitchen, the two began to talk.

"Are you okay with the second prince on an errand?"

"Master rest assured, okay, the second prince is interested in the slave, you see, even this cotton coat is given to Mama Du to add fine fleece to the slave, and it is very warm."

"That's good, that's good, remember to be more careful when you're on an errand, the concubine and the second prince are both good people, and they won't treat you badly, you know?"

"Hey, got it."

Although the words of the master and apprentice are not much, they are full of warmth.

Seeing that his younger brother could live so easily, Qin An's heart was also full of comfort.

In my heart, I must be loyal to Lin Wanyi.

If nothing else, just for her to choose a stable place for her brother, he will be grateful for a lifetime.

Qin An naturally also knew that the second prince would leave the palace in the future.

Then I want to go to Yunzhou.

As a result, the two brothers don't necessarily have much chance to meet.

Compared to living in fear in the palace, Qin An would rather let his younger brother follow the second prince and stay away from this place of right and wrong.

He had suffered enough sins in his life.

In the next life, reincarnate in a simple family.

It's good to live a smooth and stable life.

Walking all the way, talking all the way.

When the snow stops, it means that spring is coming again.

The palace is calm and waveless, but the outside of the palace is in a hurry.

Shengjing City and Ganzhou are thousands of miles apart.

If you go slowly, I'm afraid it will take three or four months.

And if you want to enter Ganzhou, you have to step across the boundaries of Suizhou.

Suizhou.

Thirty miles outside the city, there is a turbulent river, called Sansha Bay.

This is a secret road to Ganzhou.

Very few people know about it.

In the several ravines of Sanshawan, there are dense people.

The leaders are naturally Feng Qi and Jiang Huanqing.

Since they left Shengjing City last year, they have been wandering around the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Everyone outside knew that they were ordered to move the people from the northwest into the Central Plains.

But only they understand the true purpose of this trip.

It is to find out all the secret ways to return to Ganzhou from Shengjing City.

The purpose is nothing else, that is, to completely intercept and kill Hou Huang in the northwest on the way back to Ganzhou.

Otherwise, Ruozhen let him go back to Ganzhou.

That is to let the tiger return to the mountain.

Not only will the northwest be opposed, but I am afraid that even the war with the Central Plains will burn.

How could the emperor and the four princes allow this to happen.

That's why it's deployed in advance.

The 3,000 soldiers and horses were all well-trained.

More than half of them are from the Secret Guard Battalion, which is good at surveying and investigating.

Once the Marquis of the Northwest laughed at the little emperor's whimsy.

With only 3,000 people, he tried in vain to disintegrate the northwest where his Liu family had been in charge for many years.

Unexpectedly, the 3,000 people he looked down on were prepared to capture him.

At this time, it was only more than ten miles away from his arrest.

The wind from the northwest is much colder than that in Shengjing City.

Therefore, the faces of the people who have been hiding here for several days are a little flushed.

When the wind blows, it carries a numbing pain.

I saw a person moving fast like the wind, and then stopped in a low lying.

Said softly.

"General, the spies are here to report that the Northwest Hou and his party are indeed coming here."

Hearing this, Feng Qi couldn't help but cast an approving look at Jiang Huanqing.

"You kid can!"

The corners of Jiang Huanqing's mouth raised, but he didn't have a bit of pride and complacency.

After receiving the secret report from Shengjing City, they began to shrink their manpower and set up organs.

Originally, three places were selected.

But when the order was finally issued, Jiang Huan Qingli ignored the public opinion and concentrated eighty percent of the people here.

The remaining two percent are used to set off smoke bombs elsewhere.

There are relentless pursuers in the back, and there is a specially arranged "dead end" in front.

The exhausted Northwest Hou had no time to think too much.

thought that this world was still his world.

This realm is still the realm where he has the final say.

Therefore, step by step, he fell into the trap that Feng Qi and Jiang Huanqing had already arranged.

"The emperor's death order wants us to capture the Northwest Marquis and go back to restore our lives! So don't miss a beat! Do you understand? ”

"Yes!"

In the eyes of all those who lurk, it is inevitable.

Three thousand against fifty, if they still let the Northwest Marquis escape.

Not to mention that the emperor wants their lives, even they themselves are embarrassed to gain a foothold in this world!

"Alright, let's get ready."

"Yes!"

Secretly, thousands of pairs of eyes were staring closely at the bamboo forest not far away.

And the calm and waveless river, the endless flat land.

It seems that they are all accomplices who buried the life of the Marquis of Northwest.

In the bamboo forest, the Northwest Hou and his party galloped on horseback.

Even if everyone's face is full of exhaustion.

But no one dared to stop.

With great difficulty, they escaped from Pingzhou's pursuers.

But in fact, they are also at the end of their crossbows.

If you can't return to Ganzhou, I'm afraid that you will really be cut down by the pursuers behind.

The reason why I didn't take the avenue is because this place can greatly shorten the distance back to Ganzhou.

And then there's the fact that very few people know about it.

You can evade the soldiers who chase them all the way.

The Northwest Hou, who has never been so embarrassed in his life, has been on the road for more than half a month.

It's basically on horseback, and it's good to stop for an hour or two once in a while.

When they fled from Shengjing City, they only had time to take the retinue with them.

There are only 400 people, and they are running around until now.

Those who are tired to death, those who have fallen behind, and those who have died to stop the pursuing soldiers.

It's been more than halfway through.

Now there are no more than fifty people following sporadically behind him.

But all of them can block ten with one.

When entering the bamboo forest, everyone's strings were tight.
