King Wei lowered his voice and said angrily: "What are you yelling about?
Shut up!"
But King An's words were still heard by some of the soldiers who followed him. This trip was inherently dangerous, and now there was a witch from northern Xinjiang, which naturally aroused everyone's panic.
After sending Man'er back to the camp, some soldiers came over and suggested killing Man'er. The King of Wei became angry and scolded him before retreating, but he could not stop the heated discussion in the army about the matter.
For a while, the morale of the army was weakened. Lu Yuan came forward to lecture and persuade, which was able to suppress it temporarily.
However, Ah Si and Xu Yi did not catch up. They were twenty miles apart and it was already dark. They had no way of catching up. They could only spend the night in the mountains and catch up again tomorrow.
Let's talk about the Zhou Dynasty. After Yu Wenhao and Yuan Qingling came back from modern times, they stayed for one day before returning.
Jingting didn't expect him to leave so soon, so after trying to persuade him to stay, Yu Wenhao said worriedly: "There are too many variables in northern Xinjiang. I want to send Lao Yuan back and quickly lead people to northern Xinjiang to support him."
After Jingting asked clearly, he suggested: "Anyway, we and I have nothing to do now. How about this. You and I will take some people to the north of Xinjiang for support and let Jin Ning escort the crown princess and the child back to the country. How about this?"
This is naturally the best, but Yu Wenhao asked: "Can you stay away for so long?"
"It doesn't matter. Now that the Great Zhou Dynasty has been pacified and the Qiankun Sword has been laid to rest, it won't be a problem for me to leave for a few months," Jingting said with a serious look on her face, "And it's an honor for me to join hands with you on the battlefield again."
Yu Wenhao is also yearning for it. If he can go with Jingting, then the hard work will become a honeymoon. Well, he learned it in modern times. When talking about weddings, they said honeymoon. A happy trip for two people is called a honeymoon.
.
The two straight men went back and told their wives that Jin Ning was very happy and just happened to inspect the Ding Feng Hotel opened in Beitang.
As for Yuan Qingling, she is also willing. She is worried about Jing and Man'er on the one hand, and if Lao Wu can go with Jingting and bring some helpers, he can at least be a backup support.
The matter was agreed upon, and we set off the next day.
Jingting ordered a few strong generals and hundreds of soldiers and horses to set off together, while Jin Ning took the escort maid Ke Ling Keli to go to the Northern Tang Dynasty. However, as soon as the convoy left the capital, Ke Ling, who was responsible for patrolling the rear, stepped forward to report: "
The Princess, the Crown Princess, and Prince Hongye are following behind."
I have almost forgotten this person. He has been silent since he came to Dazhou, and now he has left again, which is really uncomfortable.
Jin Ning almost suffered a loss from him, so she was quite wary of this person.
Yuan Qingling thought of Fang Wu's words. Fang Wu had repeatedly promised that Hongye meant no harm and was only here for the medicine. But now that the medicine is gone, will he become angry from shame?
Thinking of the monkey and Hongye who had been in the laboratory for three years and lived a life of dependence on each other for another two years, Yuan Qingling still felt very sad.
Monkey is her old friend, so is there a connection between her and Hongye?
Therefore, when he checked into the inn in the evening, Hongye also checked in, and Yuan Qingling simply invited him to have a meal with him.
Hongye was still dressed in red, with an ugly girl and two horses that didn't look tired. He planned to follow them slowly along the way.
“It’s a great honor to be invited!”
Hongye is still so humble and polite, with a warm smile on her face.
After sitting down, Jin Ning took the lead and asked: "Young master, do you still want to return to Northern Tang to settle down?"
"Yes, Beitang has good mountains and rivers, which can support people!"
Hong Ye glanced at Jin Ning with a faint look, her eyes showing her admiration for Jin Ning.
"As long as you don't have ulterior motives, there are good landscapes anywhere."
Jin Ning said.
Hongye smiled and said: "The princess is really wise in what she says. I have learned a lesson."
"Don't like to flatter each other."
Jin Ning is straightforward and straightforward in her speech, and does not like to get mixed up.
Hongye shook his head, "No, it's not flattery. I have dealt with so many people, and the princess is the opponent that I admire the most, a former opponent."
Jin Ning shook his head, "I don't think you ever considered me a rival. Instead, you fooled me like a fool. You used the Great Zhou Dynasty to start a war with the Xianbei Northern Desert. You are sitting on the advantage of being a fisherman. Are you very proud?"
Hongye slowly frowned, "Why does the princess think so?
Sooner or later, Dazhou and Xianbei Northern Desert will inevitably avoid this battle. I am just moving the time to start the war. In fact, it does not harm the interests of Dazhou. On the contrary, it also helps Dazhou. Otherwise, why would the emperor make me the county king?
?”
"You guys who are playing tricks and conspiracy, whatever you say makes sense."
Jin Ning gave up arguing with him. She wouldn't talk nonsense to someone she didn't like. She stood up to leave, but asked Ke Ling Keli to stare at the door.
Hongye said helplessly: "She doesn't like me, so I can't force myself."
Yuan Qingling ate her meal and said, "You don't care whether she likes you or not."
"yes!"
Hongye picked up the chopsticks, put them down again and looked at Yuan Qingling and asked: "You went to the palace to meet the Queen Mother and disappeared for three days. Where did you go during these three days?
Can you let me know?"
Yuan Qingling raised her head and looked at him, "Sir, I don't want to beat around the bush with you. It's impossible for you to ask Fang Wu to research medicine for you. I have destroyed all the data."
Hongye's face was slightly cold, and his voice became colder, "Why?
Don’t you want to use it too?”
Yuan Qingling shook his head, "I don't need it, this medicine should never have been released."
Hongye's eyebrows were dyed with a hint of rouge, "It's not like you would do it to hurt others without benefiting yourself."
Yuan Qing Ling said: "Not harming others is self-interest. I have researched this medicine, and I have the right to deal with it. If you want to express your anger, you can express your anger, but it is impossible to hurt me on the way back to the capital."
"I won't hurt you, I'm just confused."
Hongye looked very disappointed, as if he had heard bad news. He was stunned for a while, his eyes were gray, and he said with regret: "I thought that your coming to Dazhou would be such a good opportunity, and you would definitely seize it.
The abbot said that you need this medicine very much, and I always thought that we were traveling together."
Yuan Qingling looked at him, and this was the first time she saw an expression other than indifference on his face, as if all the disguised clothes were removed, and she gradually got a glimpse of her heart, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Fang Wu told me, you
What happened with the monkey, you wanted this medicine to save the monkey, but this medicine cannot be released, I hope you understand."
"Don't you feel sorry for the monkey's death at all?
After all, you have been together for thousands of days and have known each other day and night. I see that you are also very kind to the dog in Prince Chu's palace, but why don't you have any sympathy for the monkey?
Or maybe you just use it as a test and have no emotion at all."
With this last sentence, his tone suddenly became cold and stern, and his eyes immediately turned red as he stared at Yuan Qingling.
Yuan Qingling looked at him and said: "I know the death of the monkey is a big blow to you, but if you want to ask me about my relationship with the monkey, it has already died once in the world where I live. Of course I will
I am sad and sad for its death, but death is irreversible..." Hongye interrupted her coldly, "Death is irreversible, so why can you live?
And the monkey died once in your world but can still live here?
