Hu Xiaotian shook his head and entered the secret passage through voice transmission: "I will never leave. Since I promised you, I will take you away and I will definitely do it."
Long Xiyue's beautiful eyes widened. She heard Hu Xiaotian's words in a loud voice. She was afraid that outsiders would hear them, so she pointed outside with some worry. Hu Xiaotian covered her lips and said, "You don't have to be afraid.
I have just learned the skill of transmitting sounds into secrets. Now, only you can hear what I say to you, and no one outside can hear it clearly."
Long Xiyue nodded, her beautiful eyes showing joy.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I have already laid out a detailed plan, which can be foolproof. You don't have to worry. As long as you follow my arrangements, we can escape the predicament safely."
Long Xiyue's expression was doubtful. After entering Dayong, the protection surrounding her would only become tighter. It would be even more difficult to escape, not to mention what if she left Dakang? Although the emperor's brother was ruthless, but her
This marriage is by no means her personal matter. If she walks away, it may bring an unreasonable disaster to the people of Dakang. She said softly: "God's will is inevitable, why do you still not understand this truth until now?
"
Hu Xiaotian stared into her beautiful eyes and whispered: "I just ask you, if you are given a chance to stay with me for life, are you willing to give up your identity as a princess?"
Long Xiyue didn't think about it at all and nodded vigorously.
Hu Xiaotian pursed his lips, and immediately showed a bright smile, saying to Long Xiyue, even if it means going up the mountain of swords and the sea of fire for her, it is worth it.
Long Xiyue said: "Why didn't you see Zicuckoo?"
Hu Xiaotian did not hide anything from her, and told her about Zijuan's suspicious behavior, and asked Long Xiyue to be more careful. Long Xiyue was deeply suspicious of this. Zijuan has been by her side since she was a child and is one of the people she trusts most.
First, this time it was Zijuan herself who offered to accompany her to marry into Dayong. How could she betray herself? Hu Xiaotian saw that she didn't believe it and whispered: "Anyway, it's not a bad thing to be more careful."
Hu Xiaotian thought that Xumitian would come to harass him that night, but he didn't expect that he had nothing to do all night. The next morning, Long Xiyue's condition improved a lot, so everyone decided to continue on the road, and they never encountered any trouble on the way to Qinglong Bay.
trouble.
Qinglong Bay is a small port in the north of Dakang, belonging to Cangmu County, Wuxing County. It was originally just an ordinary wharf, mainly responsible for transporting business travelers to and from both sides of the Yongjiang River. However, later the Yong forces gradually invaded southward, and their territory continued to expand.
Dakang declined day by day, and finally formed a situation where they faced each other across the river and ruled by dividing the river. Therefore, the strategic position of the small port of Qinglong Bay was naturally highlighted. There have been constant wars between the two countries. In order to consolidate the northern defense line, Dakang has
Here, we actively developed naval power. As a result, Wuxing County emerged as the number one military town in the north.
It’s just that in recent years, natural disasters have continued in Dakang, and the country’s economy has fallen into a quagmire. Due to repeated floods in the Yongjiang River Basin, people are in dire straits and fertile farmland is barren. Even the soldiers stationed at the northern border defense line have not received food and pay for several months.
, the recent civil unrest in Wuxing County is ultimately about people trying to make a living. Food is the most important thing for the people. If even the most basic requirement of filling their stomachs is not guaranteed, people's mentality will inevitably change.
When a group of them arrived at Cangmu County, it was at dusk, and the setting sun was about to set, dragging everyone's silhouette very long. Such light and shadow made people feel a sense of desolation and heaviness. Hu Xiaotian narrowed his eyes.
Looking to the northwest, the outline of Cangmu County has clearly appeared in his field of vision.
The county town is very small. The city wall is not as majestic and tall as imagined. It faces the deep and wide Yongjiang River. There is indeed no need to do more work on the city wall. However, the city wall is too dilapidated. The colors on the outer wall are mottled, green and brown.
Intertwined with dark gray, the green is moss, the brown is soil, and the dark gray is wall tiles. When you get closer, you can see the dark red marks on the wall, which are left behind by the soldiers who once guarded the city and fought bloody battles to protect their homes and country.
The blood underneath.
The city is old, and the soldiers guarding the city also look listless. In fact, such expressions also appear in other places in Dakang. The whole country is like the sky at this time, the twilight is gloomy, and night is approaching.
The local officials did not put up a grand welcome, and no one even went out to greet them. The guard responsible for guarding the gate looked at the large team, with numb and empty eyes in his confused eyes. This small county town
It's been a long time since I've encountered such a battle. If you come from the south, you're not an enemy. Dayong's army can't cross the Yongjiang River so easily. This pair of troops is neatly equipped and has a clear flag. It shouldn't be a local army, let alone a rioter.
, there is only one possibility left.
Soon someone went to report it, but the city gate was still closed and the suspension bridge hung high. Even Wen Boyuan felt a little puzzled. Did the guard here not hear that Princess Anping wanted to board the ship from here?
Less than half a mile away from the city gate, the suspension bridge was slowly lowered. The city gate opened wide, and a group of people rushed out. The leader was a dark and thin boy, wearing an old brown leather armor and a cape on his shoulders.
The original color has been washed away for a long time. He is holding a mountain ax in his hand. The black horse under his crotch is also thin and long-haired. He is weak when running. Behind him are more than 20 people, all old and weak soldiers, running from the city gate and across the suspension bridge.
I was already out of breath from exhaustion.
Wenbo couldn't help but frown when he saw it from a distance. When did the northern soldiers of Dakang become like this? It's not an exaggeration to say that they are crooked.
The thin black boy raised the ax in his hand. The mountaineering ax was pitch black and seemed to be made of fine steel. It seemed to weigh at least fifty kilograms, but he seemed to lift it effortlessly. The boy said loudly: "Hey!
Who is coming?"
Wen Boyuan winked at Zhan Peng, who was on the side. He was a guard in a small county, and he didn't even bother to talk to him. Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Wen Boyuan's expression. This guy thinks very highly of himself, and he still thinks he is better than others.
How noble is it?
Zhan Peng rode up to meet her and said loudly: "According to the order of the current emperor, we escorted Princess Anping to Yongdu to get married. After passing here, haven't you heard about it?"
The thin black boy blinked: "What? Male...princess?"
Zhan Peng nodded.
The thin black boy asked again: "Where is the imperial edict? How do I know you are not lying to me?"
Zhan Peng said angrily: "Bold madman, Princess Anping is here, and you still dare to be rude. Aren't you afraid that the emperor will punish you?"
The thin black boy said: "But there must be a token. No one informed me that the princess would come here. If I let you in casually, and if Lord Xiong punishes me, I will have to walk around without food."
"
Wen Boyuan saw that even a small junior officer dared to block their way, and he couldn't help but feel angry, and said angrily: "Zhan Peng, there is no need to talk nonsense to him, if he dares to stop the princess from entering the city again, he will be killed without mercy!"
When the thin black boy heard the words "shoot to kill", his eyes couldn't help but widen. He raised his ax and pointed it at Wen Boyuan: "Hey, what did you say? Kill me? Do you think I'm afraid of you? Come on, I'll fight you for 300 rounds.
Let’s see who of us dies first.”
Hu Xiaotian couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
When Wen Boyuan heard Hu Xiaotian laughing, he couldn't help but transfer all his anger to him, and secretly felt cruel in his heart, Hu Xiaotian, I will never let you return to Dakang alive.
The thin black boy was attracted by Hu Xiaotian's laughter, looked at him and said, "Hey, who are you laughing at?"
Hu Xiaotian urged the horse on his crotch to move forward slowly. The black boy was attracted by Xiao Hui's appearance. When he saw Xiao Hui's two long ears, he couldn't help laughing: "You are so funny.
, how to ride a mule?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Little brother, we have the imperial edict, but only the city guard of your Cangmu County can read it. Is your Lord Liang here?"
The skinny black boy said, "How do you know our lord's surname is Xiong?" This boy was quite confused. He had clearly said it himself just now, but now he had completely forgotten it.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Not only do I know your surname is Xiong, but he and I are also good friends."
The thin black boy said in surprise: "Really? But why haven't I heard my father talk about it?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Your surname is Xiong, right?"
The thin black boy nodded, touched the back of his head and said, "How do you know?"
The group of people behind Hu Xiaotian suppressed their laughter. They thought that this boy was a fool. He turned out to be the son of the city guard. He was so stupid. He had paid it all to others. At this moment, he was actually confused.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Of course I know, and I also know that you are the son of the city guard Xiong."
The thin black boy slapped himself on the forehead: "Oh, my God, you really know my dad. Are you a fortune teller?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said nothing. There was something wrong with this kid's mind.
Wen Boyuan said coldly: "Eunuch Hu, why are you talking to a fool? Someone come and capture him!"
But because of Wen Boyuan's words, the thin black boy suddenly reacted: "Uh... that's not right. It seems that everything you know is what I told you. You are bluffing me!" Although he was half a beat slow, but
Finally I figured it out.
Hu Xiaotian originally wanted to coax this kid, but he didn't expect that Wen Boyuan interrupted and the black kid woke up again, secretly scolding Wen Boyuan for being troublesome. At this time, Xumitian's voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "His nickname is Xiong Tianba.
The naughty boy is the son of Cangmu County Lieutenant Xiong Anmin. He was born with great strength, but lacks strength."
Hu Xiaotian was secretly happy in his heart and said loudly: "What did I lie to you for? You are such a naughty child, you are actually rude to your elders. When your father comes back to see me, I won't let him beat you up."
The black boy was stunned and said in astonishment: "You actually know my nickname?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "More than just a nickname, your real name is Tianba or I gave it to you." Hu Xiaotian said it seriously.
