"No, we have already inquired about the Emperor's and their route. If we don't catch up with them, I'm afraid it will be difficult to tell the Emperor. Now I feel very uncomfortable. The closer I get, the more painful it becomes." Xia Ziying's firm tone could not tolerate the slightest bit.
discuss.
Hearing Xia Ziying's harsh tone, Ling'er was embarrassed to say that she wanted to stop and rest. The group of soldiers behind who were responsible for protecting Xia Ziying had no reason to stop.
The dust wind was still flying unbridled, and the group of people walked through the strong wind, as if the strong wind in the sky could not block their way.
Just as they were leaving, General Long Su suddenly shouted, "Please protect Concubine Xia." Immediately, all the soldiers surrounded Xia Ziying and Ling'er.
Xia Ziying and Ling'er looked around in confusion. There seemed to be no danger. Why were they so panicked? "General Longsu, what's wrong?"
"General, I just saw several figures flashing in front of me. If someone is so sneaky in this barren mountain, they must be lawless people, so we'd better be careful." Long Su reported back worriedly.
Long Su then said to Xia Ziying: "Concubine Xia is waiting here for the time being. I will go to the front to take a look. If there is danger, you should evacuate quickly. This place is very close to the place where the two armies are fighting. I am afraid there will be some danger."
, if you encounter the enemy's army, you will have no chance of escaping."
What Long Su said made sense. Xia Ziying couldn't help but nod her head. Long Su led a few soldiers and headed forward. In an instant, they rushed into the mountain col ahead and disappeared after a while.
figure.
After a while, they didn't come back. Ling'er asked worriedly: "Sister, are they in any danger? They haven't come back for a while even though they are so old?"
"Don't worry, wait and see, maybe they are searching." The soldiers around Xia Ziying separated into a protective posture, paying close attention to the surrounding situation. Suddenly, someone shouted: "General Longsu is back."
Following the man's shout, it turned out that they were indeed back. From a distance, there seemed to be several more people around, and they didn't seem to be enemies or bandits, because they were also running behind them.
, and was not tied up by Long Su.
When they arrived, before Xia Ziying could ask what was going on, Long Su had already taken the lead and said: "Concubine Xia, it's not good, something happened to the emperor!" An ugly look flashed on Long Su's face.
"What? What's wrong, Your Majesty? Tell me!" When Xia Ziying heard Long Su say something happened to Mu Lianlong, her psychological worries spread like a flood in an instant, and an unprecedented despair suddenly swept over her, sinking deep.
It hits the wall that has already been forged in my heart.
Ling'er saw Xia Ziying was so nervous and her face was pale without even a trace of blood, so she grabbed his arm tightly and said, "Sister, don't be excited. I want to hear what General Long Su said.
What’s going on!”
Long Su looked at Concubine Xia in front of him in embarrassment, choked with sobs for a long time, and then began to say: "These people behind the general are the soldiers that the emperor took out to fight. They were ambushed by the Meng army before, and they were all ambushed.
, almost the entire army was wiped out. Then, the enemy cut off their retreat and drove them to a desperate situation in a valley. When they were desperate, the emperor... ordered that everyone put down their weapons... and surrendered." At this point.
By that time, Long Su was almost speechless. After calming down his emotions, he continued: "Subsequently, all the soldiers in the army confiscated their weapons and tied them together. They had previously promised to the emperor that they would release the soldiers.
I went back and released them all in front of the emperor. I thought I could go home safely, but I didn't expect these beasts to go back on their word and chase them from behind, killing almost all the soldiers who had surrendered.
These few saw that the situation was not good, so they found a place to hide, thus avoiding a fatal disaster."
After hearing what Long Su said about what happened, Xia Ziying could hardly sit down on the horse anymore, and immediately sat down on the couch. Fortunately, Ling'er on the side was holding her, and he quickly helped her off the horse.
.
Long Su knew that this news was a big blow to Concubine Xia, so he didn't say anything, but stood quietly aside, waiting for her to calm down.
Seeing that Xia Ziying had calmed down, she stepped forward and asked, "Concubine Xia, what should we do now?"
Xia Ziying's eyes were red and swollen, and she suppressed the grief in her heart. She didn't know what happened to Mu Lianlong now? Being captured was an unforgivable thing for him, not to mention that he had always been aloof and arrogant.
You can be arrogant and suddenly fall from the sky to the bottom of the valley. No one can withstand the impact of the drop.
"Come here. I want to ask you something." Xia Ziying suddenly said to the soldiers behind who had a chance to escape.
The soldiers came over tremblingly. After bowing and saluting, Xia Ziying asked: "Do you know how they treated the emperor? Where has the emperor been taken now?"
The soldiers looked at me one by one, and I looked at you. Then one of them spoke and said: "We don't know the details. We just heard that it seemed that the emperor was going to be sent to the country of Meng, and then we were discussing the matter.
."
"Meng State? Are you really going to Meng State?" Ling'er took a deep breath subconsciously. Mu Lianlong is the emperor of Mu State. If he goes to Meng State, wouldn't he become the laughing stock of everyone, let alone
For a person who has been above the heads of thousands of people since he was a child, even I may not be able to bear it."
"Yes, I vaguely heard Meng's generals talking about it. They may have started to set off now. If they want to save the emperor, it's not too late. Otherwise, when the emperor arrives in Meng, then
Even if we want to save him, it's impossible." When he said this, a very anxious look suddenly appeared on the soldier's face, looking at Xia Ziying in front of him.
"Concubine Xia, think twice. Even if we go now, there are only a few dozen people here. The Meng army claims to have 300,000 people. If we go like this, we are asking for death. In the opinion of the general, we should go back first.
Report all the situations to the court to see if the regent, the Ninth Prince, has any better ideas. In this way, the losses can be minimized." Long Su's words are very reasonable. According to the current situation, Mu Lianlong must be
There is no way to save him, but it is really difficult to go back on his own. His beloved is now trapped in the enemy camp, how can he go back safely?
"You go back and report the situation first. I want to go and take a look alone." Xia Ziying suddenly said impromptuly. No one expected that she would come. She whipped up the riding crop and whipped it hard.
The horse suddenly seemed to be frightened and rushed forward. Even if Long Su tried to stop her, there was nothing he could do.
"Concubine Xia, please don't act on your impulse." Long Su said loudly from behind when he saw that he couldn't catch up. When Ling'er saw this, he immediately followed her, "Sister, wait for me.
Don't leave Ling'er behind." Ling'er also rushed over from behind.
Seeing Ling'er following her, Xia Ziying was a little stunned. "Go back quickly. What are you doing with me? This time is extraordinary. If you go there, there is no guarantee that you can come back. You have to figure it out yourself."
"Ling'er belongs to my sister in life and death. If you, sister, will never come back, then what's the point of Ling'er's life? It's better to go to hell with you, sister. Please promise Ling'er, sister, this time
No matter what, Ling'er has decided to follow you, sister, so you can't even think about leaving me and running away alone." Ling'er looked very stubborn.
The sound of horse hooves from behind gradually sounded. After Xia Ziying heard it, she quickly shouted: "Okay, just follow your wish and run after me. The ones behind have already caught up. If you are caught up, don't even think about escaping."
Already."
When Ling'er saw Xia Ziying agreed to her promise, she nodded happily and said, "Well, thank you, sister." After saying that, she followed Xia Ziying, whipped up her riding whip, and drove forward as fast as she could.
Long Su, who was behind, was chasing closely with his people, shouting loudly: "Concubine Xia, please don't do this, it will have no effect at all. The emperor is already in danger, if you go,
It also gives them more leverage against Mu."
It's a pity that Xia Ziying didn't hear what he said at all, and just kept running forward. Long Su followed behind and persisted, chasing after him, and he was about to be caught up.
Suddenly, a cold arrow flew over from the front without any warning, and shot towards Long Su. Long Su quickly dodged, and then avoided the flying cold arrow, but the cold arrow still shot towards the back, hitting him.
A soldier who was following him was shot to death, and he immediately fell off his horse. When he saw someone firing cold arrows in front of him, Long Su quickly waved his hand to signal everyone to stop the pursuit. He looked ahead with a stern expression.
Xia Ziying and Ling'er were just running. They didn't expect anyone to help them. After they ran forward for a while, they almost collided with the people in front of them and were immediately strangled.
Hold the reins.
I saw a cavalry in front of me, and the leader was a handsome young man, who seemed to have stepped out of a painting. He was such a handsome man, with a unique look in his dark eyes.
Looking at herself, Xia Ziying was stunned for a moment when she looked at the tall, handsome man in front of her. She didn't expect that there were people more handsome than Mu Lianlong and Mu Yunjing. It seemed that this dynasty was really
There are a lot of handsome guys, but luckily I met them all.
Long Su, who was behind, saw the group of people in front, and then understood what was going on. He saw the handsome young master wearing yellow-orange armor, looking at them.
The deputy general on the side glanced at them and said to Xia Ziying and Ling'er: "Don't be afraid, girls, our young master is the most enthusiastic. He saw you being chased, so he ordered us to come to rescue you."
