Chapter 611: Sure to die
Chapter 611
Hearing him speak twice, both of which were asking her if something is going on, Princess Yan's heart felt bitter.
He always treated her like this, never treated anything wrong, respected everything, so impeccable, yet so alienated.
But she... there is nothing to blame at all.
All this is what it should be.
Instead, she would not dare to stay any longer at this time, lest she disturb him and annoy him——
But what happened this time, she was really disturbed...
"My lord... really think it over?" Even though she wasn't a neat temperament, she didn't try to get around. She knew he had to deal with a lot of things, so she couldn't help wasting his time slowly.
She is used to being extremely careful in front of him and trying her best to be thoughtful.
"You all know." King Yan glanced at her, and was not surprised that King Yan's mansion was so big, and it was normal for the news to reach her.
And he didn't intend to hide her from her.
"I am preparing to let people tell you and Sang'er that I will leave Mizhou tomorrow. You and Sang'er can stay in the palace with peace of mind, and I will leave enough manpower to ensure your safety."
Tomorrow?
Princess Yan couldn't hear her, so she subconsciously asked: "Where is the prince...... where are you going?"
Wang Yan sorted out the documents on hand, and said: "You don't have to ask too much about the military affairs."
Princess Yan grabbed her handkerchief tightly.
Yes, the important events of the march are classified, she shouldn’t ask more...
But……
"The prince is going here, it must be dangerous, and my concubine is worried..."
Seeing her hesitating to say something, King Yan said: "Don't worry, if I fail, I will also secretly try to send you and Sang'er away from Mizhou. At that time, you and Sang'er only need to hide their identities. There are safe and ordinary days. I have let Hefeng arrange everything in advance, and your mother and daughter don’t have to share the risks with me.”
It should be the case for both emotion and reason. He has no reason to let Hai’s mother and daughter bear the possible consequences of what he did.
Princess Yan's eyelashes trembled slightly: "That's not what the concubine body meant..."
She was just worried about him...
But how can she open this mouth?
Grandma always said that she has a chance, only she has the heart, and one day she will be able to heat the prince’s heart...
But she knew better than that, she had no chance at all, no chance at all.
She raised her eyes slightly and looked towards the study room separated by the screen.
Except for the close servant and Hefeng, the prince’s study easily refused to allow others to set foot.
But even so, she still knew that in the interior of this study, there was always a portrait of a woman hanging...
About three or four years ago, Sang'er sneaked in once and saw the portrait. She knew that her father had someone else in her heart, so she cried and made a fuss, saying many things such as "Father It’s no wonder that Wang is so separated from A-niang and doesn’t treat our mother and daughter close.” “I still remember the woman next to me. What is the good of a dead person?” In the end, he was so violent that he even took the portrait off. Tear it down-
That was...that was the first time she saw the prince tantrum with Sang'er.
The prince was standing next to the screen, and coldly uttered a very short but very heavy sentence to Sang Er who was holding the portrait-"Put things down and get out."
Sang'er was so frightened that she didn't even cry, so she went out startled.
When she recovered, she threw herself in her arms and cried for a long time.
Thinking of this past, flashed before her eyes the person in the painting that although she had only seen it once but seemed to have been deeply imprinted in her mind, Hai's only felt that her eyes were sore and painful.
She has no chance...
Fortunately, no one will have this opportunity.
She suppressed many complicated emotions and whispered softly: "Since the prince has decided, the concubine hopes that everything will go well for the prince..."
Yan Wang nodded: "You are not in good health, so go back and rest earlier."
"Yes." Princess Yan blessed her body: "Wang Ye remember to drink, and the concubine retired."
She walked out slowly. The rain outside the study was first stopped. Looking up, she could see that there was still accumulated rain dripping down the corners of the eaves and corridors. Come.
The chill even pierced her into tears.
"The Queen..."
Waiting for the grandmother beside the stone steps to greet her, and hold her arm.
"Go back." Princess Yan said dumbly.
Grandma took a look at the brightly lit study room, and did not dare to ask more questions, first helped her princess back to the bedroom.
Two quarters later, King Yan handed the two letters to Hefeng.
"Hurry up and send them to Ningyang and Linyuan."
"Yes." After He Feng responded, he hesitated to ask: "The prince...do you really want to lead the troops out of the north by yourself?"
In this way, the prince will always bear the infamy of treason.
"Nature." King Yan did not hesitate.
The Xu and Wu family defected from Beijing together caught the court by surprise, and indeed caused the court to be confused for a while.
But it was only for a while.
Daqing was established in the first two decades, and it was a world gained through battle. Even though the emperor’s inability to govern the country weakened the country’s power, there are many systems that deserve criticism, but it is difficult to change the fact that there is no shortage in the hands of the imperial court. Soldiers and horses.
Once enough time is given to the court, so that they can come up with truly usable countermeasures, this must be a protracted battle that takes a long time.
It may be as long as the court can't afford it, and they can't afford it either.
At present, the Xu family accounted for the Linyuan. Even though the Wu family was able to support the situation for a while by relying on the advantages of the big tree and deep roots, it would be difficult to break through the layers of the imperial court if it was delayed in providing assistance.
Therefore, he must not hide in Mizhou and wait to enjoy his success. He will only wait for the results of the Xu Wu family's fighting and bleeding to be presented to him, and then make a gesture of "I have to sit in this position for the stability of the world."
The selfishness is reversed, so this last act is not bad.
No one is blind.
He also couldn’t do all the dangers to his father-in-law and general to bear for him for the sake of a false name.
On the contrary, he is the one who should be at the forefront.
Hefeng did not ask any more, and returned with the letter.
The king Yan washed, and lay down on the low couch in the inner room.
Lying down like this, you can see that portrait.
The person in the painting is smiling, and the eyes of King Yan can’t help but smile.
"Really..." He put his arms behind his head and sighed, "I miss our son, and I don't know if this stinky kid wants father."
There was a bit of a whisper: "What do you think he is doing at this time? I don't know what the specific situation of Ningyang City is now. I have passed from Mizhou, and there must be layers of obstacles along the way. I don't know when I will see that kid... "
"You have to look at him a little bit. This kid looks very much like me. He doesn't seem to be such a peaceful lord. He has too many ideas."
Thinking about it, and then nodding silently: "But fortunately, you are more like you..."
"By the way, I forgot to tell you last time that this kid’s marriage was roughly set, it was the little girl of the Xu family, the general’s granddaughter, he picked it himself, oh, no, it’s not...it was the girl’s choice. He." He said with a smile: "This little girl has more ideas than him. If you are still there, you will definitely like it tightly..."
At this point, the voice is slightly dumb, and the smiling eyes are gradually red.
He looked at the painting and saw that she seemed to be smiling at himself, so he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingers, and smirked.
……
Thousands of miles away, under the dark night, a group of carriages slowly stopped.
Continuously drove the road for most of the day, and the man and the horse were tired.
This place is close to a dense forest, and the terrain is still hidden. After Suijiang whispered for instructions next to a carriage, he turned over and got off his horse, ordered everyone to make a fire and feed the horses to rest.
After Suijiang personally delivered the food to the two carriages, he sat in front of the fire and drank water.
"There are at most two days away..." An entourage said while baking a piece of pancake.
They did not take the official road, nor was it a shortcut that was easy to be guessed, but to be safe, they bypassed two cities, and therefore they had an extra three or four days.
But, except for some bandits who got in the way, it was indeed safe and did not meet any people from the court.
Suijiang nodded.
Two more days...
If someone wants to do it, they will probably choose night.
And if you wait another day, it will be too close to Ningyang...
So, he bet it won’t be peaceful tonight.
To be honest, he is indeed not as smart as Suishan's head, but he still has the keen intuition and judgment accumulated by the dark guard.
It is precisely because of this that he chose to rest here, quiet and unmanned, and further out of the dense forest, there is an excellent desperate place.
Suijiang pulled out the long sword behind him, and wiped it with a piece of cotton cloth against the fire.
The night sky above his head was dark, half a star was not seen, and a round of hairy moon hazily hung in the middle of the sky, as if a dusty pearl was obscured.
The night wind swept across the treetops of the dense forest, making a rustle, and the autumn leaves on the ground became thicker.
The wind stopped, but the sound remained.
Except Suijiang, a group of six entourages immediately showed a look of vigilance, and coincidentally pressed the long sword to the waist.
Behind the half-person tall green-yellow grass, a black shadow that approached quickly suddenly sprang out.
"Take good care of the masters!"
Year-old Jiang Ying stood up, his sword gleaming coldly under the firelight.
There is more than one black shadow.
More and more shadows are approaching, Suijiang and the two of them fought a glance, and saw the dark shadows half-melted in the night, there are more than fifty or sixty!
And all of them are very skilled!
This clearly shows that I want to succeed with a single blow, without any patience for a long time.
And those people did not have any verbal communication between the shots, but they had their own order, and the goal was clear-they wanted the lives of the people in the two carriages!
The disparity in the numbers of the two sides is too great, and hard resistance will not last long.
Realizing this, Sui Jiang did not delay a moment, when the long sword in his hand penetrated a person’s chest, he shouted: "Go! Leave the guardians!"
"Yes!"
Several entourage responded together, and immediately jumped up to the seat, grabbing the reins to drive the horse.
"Stop them!" A man in black gave the order and said the first sentence since he appeared.
A crowd of people in black flew in front of them, attacking like locusts in the sun, and they were almost surrounded by horse-drawn carriages.
"Drive!"
The horse hoofed and neighed, forced out of the instinct to escape danger, and the two carriages rushed out of the crowd one after another.
One of the men in black had a long knife slashed by the window of the car, and half of the knife was submerged in the car.
Under the shaking of the wind lamp, the figure in the carriage is faintly visible.
"Let the arrow go!"
"Chase!"
A cold arrow pierced the oncoming night breeze, making a "shooing" sound.
Just as Suijiang had just seen, this group of people was well-ordered. At this time, dozens of people rushed to catch up with their bows, disappearing into the dense forest with the carriage, and more than a dozen people hurriedly left here not far away. Fetch horses to chase.
As for the few people who were dragged on the spot by Suijiang and another close follower in front of them, they made no more than half of the tactics, and the swords came straight to take the lives of people.
"Are you from the court?!" Sui Jiang had already red eyes and was forced to step back. He gritted his teeth and asked, "This road...how did you catch up!"
The masked man snorted disdainfully: "What's the use of asking when you die!"
Suijiang's eyes were dim.
The sound of fighting just now was noisy, he couldn't distinguish the accent of the other party, but now he can hear clearly——
is indeed the Jingshi Mandarin, but the accent is not so clean...
"Go!" Sui Jiang, who was injured, stopped dragging his head and confessed to his companion on his side.
With the cooperation of the two, Suijiang relied on his previous observation and understanding of the surrounding terrain and quickly fled here under the cover of night.
"They are injured, it is impossible to escape far, catch up, don't keep alive——"
"Yes!"
Two of the men in black were ordered to catch up.
Among the other two, the person who just said that he was obviously the leader of the operation. He glanced at the direction where Suijiang and Jiang had disappeared, and did not stay here for a long time.
A subordinate brought the horse, and he jumped onto the horseback, and the group immediately chased him towards the forest where the carriage had fled.
However, to their surprise, it was only a few hundred steps forward beyond the dense forest, which turned out to be a cliff.
"...The trail down the mountain is on the right. They rushed to see the road clearly in the future. The horses were already running mad and couldn't stop them. They just fell down like this." A man in black said: "Some of our people followed closely, and one of us accidentally fell off the cliff."
The leader came to the edge of the cliff when he heard the words, and looked down at his feet with the torch lit by his subordinates.
The night is dark, and there are high and low vegetation on the edge of the cliff. The dark night is indeed confusing.
Looking down again, the darkness under the cliff can not be seen to the bottom, faintly there are strange rocks and vegetation overlapping, layers of branches and black shadows swinging with the passing mountain breeze, as if they are spreading teeth and dancing claws, their shapes are weird.
"This mountain is named Longqi Mountain, and from the topography, this cliff is as small as a hundred feet high. From here, it falls with the carriage and horse, and it is bound to die." A subordinate said beside him.
Another person glanced down, but hesitated and said: "But the patriarch of the Wu family, the descendants of the family, really just died in our hands so easily?"
In the storybook, these big men fall off the cliff, usually can't die, and maybe there will be any adventures.
The leader sneered and said: "What about the Wu family leader, there are no people around to cover people's eyes and eyes, but they are only mortal wombs. If you fall like this, I am afraid that it will become a mess."
But there is one——
"If you die, you must see the corpse, otherwise you will not be able to deal with each other."
Goodnight everybody.
