As soon as Si Haochen stood up, he heard the secret guard report outside the tent: "Master, a large number of wolves suddenly appeared in the mountains. Many people were scattered by the wolves. The third prince was injured and was carried back..."
"I know..." Although Ping Nanhou is responsible for the safety of this autumn hunt, Si Haochen has accepted the task of 'presiding over the autumn hunt'. If something like this happens, he must come forward to deal with it.
Seeing that Si Haochen had straightened his clothes, Mingruo grabbed his sleeves and said, "I'll go with you after I change my clothes."
"You stay in the camp obediently. I'll be back as soon as I go." Si Haochen thought for a moment and then said, "You'd better go into the space. Things are happening one after another today, and I'm afraid there will be other things."
"It would be faster to take me into the mountains to find someone." Mingruo was a little worried, "My grandfather, uncle and cousin all went into the mountains today. I'm very worried about them."
"Their martial arts are pretty good, so they should be fine." Si Haochen took the sword and hung it on his waist.
"Husband, take me there." Mingruo pulled Si Haochen's sleeve and shook it.
"No, the situation in the mountains is unknown now, and I'm afraid there may be danger." Si Haochen pulled his sleeves out of his wife's hands.
Hearing Si Haochen say there was danger, Mingruo became even more worried as Si Haochen went alone.
It's no use trying to reason, so I have to act irrationally: "You don't love me anymore..."
"It's not that I don't love you, please go into the space..." Where is this going? He was so unjustly blamed, and Si Haochen walked out of the tent with a headache.
"Humph!" Mingruo looked at Si Haochen's back, wondering if she would be beaten if her husband found out if she followed him secretly.
Before Mingruo had completed the 'risk assessment', Si Haochen turned back, held her little hand and walked out.
"Huh?" A smile flashed across Mingruo's dark eyes, and she raised her proud little chin, "You're not going to take me with you?"
"It's better to keep you under my nose for peace of mind." He asked his wife to enter the space, but she never responded. Si Haochen felt that this little villain was going to cause trouble.
Si Haochen carried Ming Ruo onto his horse, took the secret guard and headed into the mountain.
Mingruo saw that Yin Mo had followed him, and quickly asked the secret guard to take Yin Mo back: "There are wolves in the mountains now. You may be accidentally injured if you go in. Stay in the camp and don't run around."
"Ouch~" Yin Mo raised his head, revealing his golden collar, indicating that he would not be accidentally injured by those stupid humans.
"Shh~" Mingruo made a silent gesture, "If you scream again, you will be caught and used as a scapegoat, and then..." Mingruo made another gesture of wiping his neck.
Si Haochen didn't have the patience to do ideological work for Yin Mo, so he directly asked the secret guard to tie it up with a chain.
Mingruo and Si Haochen rode into the mountain. At the entrance of the valley, they saw guards recording the number of people leaving the mountain. Si Haochen stepped forward and asked how many people were still in the mountain.
The young clerk looked through the brochure and said: "Most of the people have evacuated. Currently, only Princess Ningping, Princess Ayina, Prince Nanling and their guards have not come out."
Si Haochen gently clamped the horse's belly, and Lieyan followed the valley to the mountains. Along the way, he saw several young men from aristocratic families coming out of the mountains with their guards. Most of them were uninjured, and only two or three people were injured.
"Didn't the 'entry and exit record' just now say that only Princess Ningping was left? There are obviously still such people here!" Mingruo saw signs that the tall grass in this area had been crushed, and there were some traces of blood.
Let Linglong go out to search.
"That book only records some important people, not everyone." When they reached a place, there were several caves on the mountain wall, and Si Haochen asked the secret guard to go up and check.
"Then...it seems like someone is buried under the soil over there." Mingruo pointed in a direction. He didn't know if there was anyone in the soil, but he was sure there was some cloth buried underneath.
"It shouldn't be a human being." Si Haochen took a look and saw that this was the place where the rocks were loose after he had surveyed it yesterday.
What was buried in the soil was the protective tent he had put up to prevent people from entering by mistake.
After listening to Si Haochen's explanation, Mingruo also discovered that the fabric was bright yellow, not a color that ordinary people could wear.
After looking at the collapsed earthworks and rocks, Mingruo and the others were about to continue looking elsewhere when Linglong flew back and landed on Mingruo's shoulders.
Mingruo pointed in a direction and whispered to Si Haochen: "Linglong said there is someone in the cave over there."
Si Haochen thought carefully about the situation he surveyed here yesterday, and it seemed that there was indeed a cave there. However, the entrance to the cave was now blocked by falling earthwork.
Si Haochen called the patrolling guards and asked them to bring more people to dig the hole.
The workload was a bit heavy, but the guards did not dare to complain and hurriedly found someone to dig. Fortunately, after digging out the outermost layer of soil, a large stone blocked the entrance of the cave. As long as the large stone was moved away, it would be possible.
I know what's going on in the cave.
Si Haochen did not wait at the entrance of the cave, but continued to look ahead.
"There seems to be someone really there..." Mingruo pointed to a slightly short bush, where a piece of clothing material was vaguely exposed, and the texture was very good.
When Si Haochen and Mingruo passed by, they saw someone lying prone in the bushes. He looked like a man wearing a hair ornament. There was a lump on the back of his head, and blood flowed down his neck, soaking a large area of his clothes.
Mingruo wanted to go over and check, so Si Haochen asked Chu Yi to get someone to the open space.
After the person was turned over, what came into view was an ordinary face: "Master, Princess, this person was hit in the back of the head by a falling rock, but he is still alive."
Mingruo had an impression of this person: "Huh? It's the counselor of Prince Nanling."
Si Haochen frowned slightly. This person's external image was that of a weak strategist, but he had carefully observed that his martial arts should be good. Even if he was hit by a rock, it would not hit his vitals.
"Save?" Mingruo asked Si Haochen's opinion.
Before Si Haochen could answer, the cute little girl stood in front of Ming Ruo: Mom, don’t save the shemale!
Mingruo raised her eyebrows slightly, communicated with Linglong, and then she leaned into Si Haochen's ear and said, "This man is Mr. Qiuye. He was poisoned not long ago..."
"Save it, just don't let anyone die." It made sense when he was hit by a rock when the poison was spreading.
The poison Linglong gave Huangfuye could not be diagnosed unless the poison was in progress. Therefore, if Linglong did not tell them, it would be difficult to find out that this person was Mr. Qiuye after his disguise.
Mingruo did a simple diagnosis and found that Mr. Qiuye was unconscious now, mainly due to concussion and excessive blood loss.
Mingruo took a piece of gauze from the medical bag and pressed it to stop the bleeding. After the bleeding stopped, he looked around and said with some disappointment: "Master Qin is not here..."
"What are you looking for for?" Si Haochen really couldn't think of any use for Qin Mo here.
