Chapter 377: There is a Going, There is a Stay

When Wu Ming returned to the border camp with Princess Chaoyun and Meng'er, General Lin was already as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

When Princess Chaoyun left, General Lin had a premonition that something was wrong, and after hesitating again and again, he decided to go to the camp of the second prince to inquire in person, but he did not expect that at this time, a landslide occurred at the northern foot of Kunlun.

For a moment, the mountain shook, and a torrent of huge boulders surged down from the foot of the mountain, completely annihilating the joint camp several miles below the foot of the mountain, and then rushed to this small border camp.

Seeing the torrent of boulders rolling in, the soldiers in the camp were frightened.

Luckily, the border camp was on a high level, and the boulder torrent had lost momentum after some distance, and eventually it only rushed over the sides of the hillside, and the border camp on the high ground escaped.

After the mudslide stopped, General Lin counted the men and horses and rushed to the camp of the second prince to look for the traces of Princess Chaoyun in the wreckage, but the camp that stretched for several miles had been completely buried by the rockflow, and he didn't even know where to start digging.

In desperation, General Lin had no choice but to return to the border camp and pin his hopes on Wu Ming.

Just as General Lin was frowning in the big tent, a soldier stumbled in.

"Report ...... Report to the general, Her Royal Highness the princess is back!"

"What!"

General Lin was taken aback, got up and pushed the soldiers aside, and then strode out of the camp.

Sure enough, at the gate of the border camp, Wu Ming and Princess Chaoyun walked side by side, followed by a strange beautiful woman.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess!!"

General Lin was so excited that he tripped over a rope on the ground while running, almost fell to the ground, staggered to the front of Princess Chaoyun, and fell to his knees with a pop.

"Your Royal Highness, you are frightened!"

Princess Chaoyun's expression was calm: "I'm fine, general, please get up." ”

General Lin stood up, glanced at Princess Chaoyun, and then at Wu Ming beside her.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, what the hell is going on, how could there be a sudden landslide?"

Princess Chaoyun was silent for a moment and then spoke: "I don't know why the landslide happened, I was talking to him about the past in the imperial brother's camp, and suddenly countless boulders rolled down from the hillside, fortunately, Wu Ming saved me at a critical moment." It's a pity that the imperial brother didn't have time to escape, and he had already died in the chaos, and more than half of the 100,000 army was killed and wounded, and completely collapsed......"

"Your Highness is blessed with good fortune, and there is no danger!"

General Lin's face showed a look of relief, as long as Princess Chaoyun was fine, he would have nothing else to ask for, as for whether the second prince died or not, General Lin couldn't care so much.

"Princess~!You're back!"

An urgent shout sounded, and Liyue rushed out of the big tent and ran towards Princess Chaoyun like a gust of wind.

Before, Princess Chaoyun borrowed Liyue's identity to go to the camp of the second prince, Liyue has been hiding in the big tent, she is extremely anxious and does not dare to come out, until the princess comes back now, she is finally free.

Princess Chaoyun looked at Liyue, who was in tears, and nodded slightly: "I'm fine, I'm worried about you." ”

Liyue even cried and laughed: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay!"

Princess Chaoyun's expression suddenly straightened: "Liyue, I have something to tell you to do." ”

Liyue sighed: "What's the matter?"

"The imperial brother died, the 100,000-strong army at the border collapsed, and the Sumeru Palace was destroyed. ”

Princess Chaoyun looked at Liyue: "I want to repair a book myself, you can bring it back to Taichang Temple for me and hand it over to Lord Taichangqing, and tell him everything that happened here." ”

"Ah——!h

Liyue was stunned in an instant: "Your Highness, it's okay to send a letter to your lord and let others go, I still have to stay by your side to take care of you!"

Princess Chaoyun shook her head: "I told you to go back and deliver the letter, you will go back, don't ask anything else." ”

Princess Chaoyun didn't want Liyue to accompany her to the outside of the Saiwai from the beginning, and she didn't want Liyue to suffer with her.

Liyue burst out crying: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you don't want me anymore-"

Princess Chaoyun was silent, this decision is related to Liyue's life, and now is not the time to be soft-hearted.

The cute child in the back grinned: "You can go back with peace of mind, Your Highness will be taken care of by me~"

Liyuewa cried even more.

Wu Ming sighed and patted Liyue's shoulder: "Liyue, you do what the princess says, going back to deliver the letter is a very important task, and the princess can't trust anyone else." ”

Liyue wiped her tears, still reluctantly, and nodded reluctantly.

Princess Chaoyun breathed a sigh of relief in her heart: "Liyue, thank you for always accompanying me here." After I finish writing the letter, I will ask General Lin to select a team of soldiers to escort you back to Taichang Temple. ”

Liyue stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, and bowed down in front of Princess Chaoyun: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Liyue is going back to Chang'an, please take care." ”

Princess Chaoyun nodded, and the corners of her eyes were a little red.

Then Princess Chaoyun went to the big tent to repair a book, roughly telling everything that happened at the northern foot of Kunlun, but hiding the second prince's intention to rebel, and then handed it over to Liyue.

After Liyue got the letter, under the escort of a team of elite cavalry, he reluctantly left the border camp and headed for Chang'an.

Standing at the gate of the border camp, Wu Ming looked at the horse team that was gradually moving away, and said, "You are too mean to yourself. ”

Princess Chaoyun frowned: "This is better for Liyue, she is only sixteen years old, and she shouldn't follow me to Saiwai." ”

Wu Ming snorted: "If I remember correctly, you and Liyue are the same age, right?"

Princess Chaoyun shook her head: "I'm different from Liyue, I have more responsibilities on me. ”

Wu Ming shrugged his shoulders and didn't bother to say more.

Princess Chaoyun turned around and looked at Wu Ming: "The method of unlocking the edict of "Taixia Yu", Lord Taichangqing handed it over to me for safekeeping. ”

Wu Ming nodded: "I have already guessed." ”

Princess Chaoyun took out a piece of silk cloth and handed it to Wu Ming: "When I wrote the letter just now, I also wrote down the method of unsealing the edict and handed it to you." ”

Wu Ming took the silk cloth and didn't look at it, and stuffed it directly into his arms.

Princess Chaoyun's face was sincere: "You have saved me many times, far more than the agreement between Lord Taichangqing and you at the beginning, the next journey will leave the territory of the Great Han Dynasty, I can't ask for more from you." ”

Wu Ming sighed: "Do you want to break the agreement?"

Princess Chaoyun hesitated for a long time, and then spoke: "It should be said that you have exceeded the agreement, of course...... If you can stay with me on the rest of the road, I ...... Would be happy ......."

The sound grew smaller and quieter, and by the end it was inaudible.

Wu Ming smiled: "I'm also very happy, then let's set off and go to Saiwai!"

Princess Chaoyun couldn't help but show a hint of joy.

General Lin strode in the rear: "Your Highness Qiqi, after crossing the border pass here, two hundred miles to the west, there is a small city called Fengcheng, which is the city where the Han Dynasty penetrates deepest into the Xiongnu. When we arrived at Fengcheng, we sent an envoy to inform the Xiongnu that we would be able to contact their royal court. ”

Princess Chaoyun snorted, looked at the wreckage at the foot of the foothills in the distance, and showed a sense of loneliness on her face: "Let's go, go to Fengcheng." ”

PS: When I made the outline of this volume, I didn't expect it to be so long in the end, and it seems that it will take more than 200,000 words to complete this story.

Princesses, enchantresses, and barbarians outside the Saiwai...... Next, we will officially enter the framework of Painted Skin II. Tomorrow I will take a day off and conceive the last plot of this volume.
