Duan Qingyao in the carriage frowned, "His Royal Highness?"
Hasn't His Highness the Crown Prince been deposed? When did he regain the position of Crown Prince?
They had only been away from the capital for a long time, but they didn't expect that so many things happened in the capital that they didn't know about.
It seems that today's capital is no longer the warm and safe home it was yesterday.
"Ahem!"
Duan Qingyao covered her mouth and coughed twice.
When the white tiger guarding the carriage heard the sound, he immediately opened a corner of the curtain and put it to his ear.
"What are your orders, Princess?"
"It seems that it is impossible to enter the city smoothly today! Just listen to them and retreat three miles, let the soldiers set up camp and rest on the spot!"
Duan Qingyao said helplessly.
"But why?"

White Tiger's face was filled with righteous indignation. They defended their homeland and sacrificed their lives and blood for the people of the country. Now they came back after almost escaping death. Not only were they not welcomed or thanked, they were not allowed to enter the city and go home!
Where in the world can such truth exist?
"I'm afraid things are going to change today!"
Duan Qingyao raised her head slightly and glanced at the sun hanging in the sky through the small window.
The sun was blazing in the sky, making people dizzy with its brightness.
"change of weather?"
Great, why are you talking about the weather?
Besides, if the sky is clear and clear, how could it change?
Could it be that the princess is sick again?
"This day is not that day."
Under Duan Qingyao's guidance, Bai Hu suddenly realized and was shocked.
Is it possible?
The prince wants to rebel?
But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem impossible.
Otherwise, how could the prince be turned into an assassin and thrown into prison without incident?
Everyone in the civil and military circles of the dynasty knows that since Prince An recovered, the emperor has paid special attention to Prince An, and has revealed his intention to pass the throne to Prince An more than once!
"What should I do?"
He was not afraid of fighting and killing the white tiger at all. He just rushed forward at the risk of his life.
However, if the competition was about strategy, he really didn't have such an exquisite mind.
"Everyone is tired, let's rest first!"
For some reason, when Bai Hu saw Duan Qingyao's calm expression, he suddenly had a backbone.
"yes!"
Bai Hu turned around and ordered to the exhausted soldiers: "All soldiers, listen to the order, retreat three miles and rest on the spot!"
"But why?"
"Why don't you let us go home?"
"Brothers fought bloody battles and traveled thousands of miles, and finally got home. Why don't you let us go home?"
These questions were like sharp knives, piercing Duan Qingyao's heart like raindrops.
She clenched her fists and took a few deep breaths before forcing herself to calm down and not act impulsively.
"I will definitely take you home! You are the heroes of the country. This is a fact that no one can erase!"
Duan Qingyao couldn't help but swear silently in her heart.
Even the soldiers on the city wall lowered their heads sadly. The soldiers under the city wall are their brothers and their heroes. However, what can they do if the military order falls like a mountain?
"Everyone has worked hard along the way. Look at yourselves. Every one of you is disgraced. You don't want your father and mother to see you in such a miserable state, right? Let's find a place to wash our faces and change our clothes! Then,
Let’s go home again!”
Bai Hu couldn't bear to see the injured and disappointed eyes of the soldiers. When he said this, he didn't even dare to look at anyone.
"What Guard Bai said is that home is right around the corner, and it won't be a matter of minutes to go back? Let's pack up, go home clean and in good spirits, and save our family the worry!"
Qian Yiyi forced a smile on her face and comforted the soldiers in a soft voice.
So what if they are reluctant? The city gate is closed, so we can't let them attack the city like enemies, right?
One mile of land, two miles of land, three miles of land!
The soldiers walked heavily, and each step did not feel like they were stepping on the ground, but on their own hearts.
"Bai Hu, I'll leave this to you. Remember, you must keep your composure and never act out of emotion."
Duan Qingyao cheered up and gave instructions seriously.
"My subordinate understands!"
Bai Hu was angry, but he still understood the seriousness in his heart.
But after a second of pause, Bai Hu finally tasted a hint of something else.
How could Princess An talk about these things so well, and she felt like she was "entrusting an orphan"!
"Princess, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
The princess had just had a miscarriage and was extremely weak. They were traveling day and night. How could the princess' body be able to bear it?
Bai Hu looked Duan Qingyao up and down nervously, feeling that her face was even paler, and her lips that should have been rosy were completely devoid of any color.
"I'm fine!"
Like this, how could it be okay?
"Princess An, His Royal Highness does not allow the army to enter because he has scruples, which is justifiable! However, you are Princess An, and now you are ill. He has absolutely no reason to stop you! I will go now.
Tell them to hire a doctor for you!"
Bai Hu felt that he must have lost his mind. Why didn't he think of this just now?
The soldiers were strong and not afraid of any hardships, but Princess An was different.
"stop!"
Bai Hu was about to get up, but was stopped by Duan Qingyao.
"Prince An is already in prison, so what's the use of my title as Princess An?"
Duan Qingyao couldn't help laughing at himself, but Bai Hu thought it was a gold medal to avoid death.
A death-free gold medal?
An idea flashed in Duan Qingyao's head. How could she have forgotten that she still had a gold medal for immunity from death as a reward from the emperor?
"Baihu, open those boxes and look carefully to see if there is a small bag with the word "福" embroidered on it!"
Duan Qingyao pointed to several sandalwood boxes piled high at the rear of the carriage and said.
"good!"
Although I don’t know why the master is so anxious, since the princess has already spoken, Bai Hu can only do it.
"Is this it?"
Bai Hu untied the rope and moved the boxes down one by one. He opened them one by one and looked at them. Finally, he found a small scarlet bag at the bottom of the last box, with the word "福" embroidered with gold thread on it.
Although it is a cloth bag only the size of a palm, it is very heavy and I don’t know what is inside.
"yes!"
As soon as she saw this bag, Duan Qingyao's eyes suddenly lit up.
Ever since she reconciled with Jun Yanan, she felt that it was no longer of much use.
But now it seems that everything has its own arrangement!
Duan Qingyao eagerly took the bag and took out a glittering gold medal from the bag.
"A gold medal to avoid death?"
The white tiger's eyes widened, as if he saw a lighthouse on the lost sea!
"Yes, as you said, they will guard against thousands of troops, but they will not guard against a weak woman like me! So, I plan to enter the city alone, and I will leave it to you here!"
