It is not that Zhang Yao has never encountered danger. When he was a child, his father carried him into the mountains and came face to face with a poisonous snake. When he grew up, he ran around and was blocked in a tree by a pack of wolves, not to mention bumping into each other. But for the first time, he
I felt scared once.
So afraid of death.
I'm so afraid of dying now.
He tried his best to steady his footsteps, follow the direction of the stream, follow the rhythm of the stream, and walk away step by step. No matter how far he goes, he must go through the dense forest, find his horse, and tell everyone——
The heart-piercing pain in the soles of his feet caused him to stagger instantly. At the same time, there was a buzzing sound, and a rope bounced up beside the gravel-strewn stream——
Too bad!
Zhang Yao instantly forgot the pain, rushed out of the stream, and stumbled towards the dense forest.
When he disappeared into the dense forest, several figures swept out of the canyon. They lowered their heads and searched. Soon they came to the springing rope. They looked around and whispered, "Is there someone?" "Is it a hare or something?"
How can there be anyone in the wilderness in the middle of the night?" He lit the torch and looked around along the stream. Just when he was about to turn back after finding nothing, someone suddenly shouted and pointed to the ground, and others gathered around.
On a smooth stone, there are bloody footprints——
They looked toward the dense forest, their eyes fierce under the firelight, and they let out sharp whistles.
...
...
With the sharp wind whistling in his ears, Zhang Yao rode on a galloping horse and finally rushed out of the darkness into the misty morning light.
The city ahead is also faintly visible.
Fengcheng has arrived, Fengcheng has arrived.
Before entering Fengcheng, soldiers and horses from the fortress stopped him. As a state city close to the border, the verification is stricter than in other places, especially now that the princess and the crown prince of Xiliang are gathered here, and this galloping coming
The man also looks strange——
"Quick, quick, take me to see your superior!"
Before they even ordered the man to dismount, the man was already shouting crazily.
The guards frowned, "Who are you?"
"I, Zhang Yao." Zhang Yao said urgently, his voice already hoarse.
How could the guards know who Zhang Yao was? Their sharp eyes saw the blood on his legs and feet.
"Dismount!" they shouted, pointing their swords and guns at him.
Zhang Yao knew that there was no time to explain now, let alone explain it layer by layer. He looked at these soldiers and thought of Chen Danzhu - Miss Danzhu did things neatly and never cared about her reputation.
"I am Princess Jin Yao's male favorite!" he shouted loudly, "send me to see the princess quickly!"
...
...
When officials from Fengcheng came to see Princess Jinyao, Princess Jinyao had just finished eating and was changing her clothes.
"Master Zhang?" She was a little surprised, "You want to see me?" and a little funny, "Come if you want to see me, it's not like I won't see him."
Hearing the princess's tone, the officials looked even more embarrassed.
"Mr. Zhang, I must invite the princess to see him." An official said, deciding to say one more thing to remind the young man, "Mr. Zhang seems to be angry."
Angry? Princess Jin Yao was even more stunned. She was about to ask again, but then she thought about it. It was so baffling, something must have happened.
She nodded: "Okay, I'll go."
Seeing Princess Jinyao and her entourage coming out, the Crown Prince of Xiliang, who was standing outside the camp holding a crossbow and shooting arrows, hurriedly saluted: "Princess." Then he looked at the waiting car driver, turned the crossbow in his hand, and asked with a half-smile.
, "Is the princess leaving?"
Princess Jin Yao smiled and said: "No, I'm going to see one of my followers. He lives in the city and is a little unhappy."
This was a strange thing to say, but the Crown Prince of Xiliang understood it. He immediately thought of the man who got off the princess's car and couldn't help but laugh and asked: "I wonder why the princess's entourage is unhappy?"
"Although you and I can't get married, the crown prince of Xiliang is indeed more charming than we have ever seen before." Princess Jin Yao said calmly, "All the women in the world will be attracted to you. Although I am a princess, I am also a woman.
Others will inevitably worry——"
She didn't finish her words, and she didn't need to finish them. The Crown Prince of Xiliang laughed. Sure enough, he had made the princess's little love slave jealous. Even if he didn't take the thin Daxia man in his eyes, he was jealous.
Still something to be proud of.
The crown prince of Xiliang raised the crossbow in his hand and invited with a smile: "Princess, go quickly and bring this young master to join us in the feast tonight."
Princess Jinyao smiled at him and got into the car under her maid's clothes. Officials from Fengcheng and Honglu Temple also looked at each other with complicated expressions.
"Why is the princess like this?" Fengcheng officials couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Look at what she said, she doesn’t look like a dignified princess, she simply——
The officials of Honglu Temple couldn't say anything. Thinking of Chen Danzhu, the princess was originally a good person. Ever since she met Chen Danzhu, she started to fight and learn how to fight, and now she just makes weird words casually.
Neng sighed: "I was led astray."
Watching Princess Jin Yao's car leaving, the Crown Prince of Xiliang shook his crossbow and smiled again: "It's interesting. When the time comes, let the princess' pet see a scene he has never seen before, and he will never see it again in his life."
Live in vain.”
As he spoke, he continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows.
Princess Jin Yao entered the hall door of the Fengcheng government office and saw Zhang Yao being bandaged by a doctor——
"What's going on?" She was startled and asked quickly, "How do you feel-"
Before she finished asking, Zhang Yao had already jumped up, not caring to bandage half of the wounds: "It's not good, the Xiliang people have hidden many soldiers and horses in the broken valley in the northwest."
As soon as these words came out, Princess Jin Yao was stunned, and the officials from Fengcheng of Honglu Temple who followed were also stunned.
how?
"I saw it with my own eyes." Zhang Yao continued, "What I could see alone was no less than a thousand people, and I don't know how many more were hidden in the depths. Each of them was carrying more than a dozen weapons - and,
They should have discovered my whereabouts, so I dare not go there to call you. You are in danger at the Xiliang Crown Prince's place."
There must be soldiers and horses ambushing the Crown Prince of Xiliang that they don't know about.
What Zhang Yao described was clearly that the Xiliang people secretly brought soldiers and horses into the country through peace talks.
This, this, news is so shocking.
Are the people of Xiliang not just for marriage, but for——?
"This matter is of great importance. We need to investigate-" an official said tremblingly.
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Princess Jin Yao: "No need to check, Mr. Zhang will not be mistaken. The people from Xiliang came with bad intentions. They have bad intentions."
Sixth Brother has long been suspicious, no wonder she keeps an eye on him.
So what to do now?
It happened so suddenly.
"Immediately send orders to all the troops to meet the enemy." Princess Jin Yao said, although she felt very calm, her voice was trembling slightly, "You can take action first and arrest the crown prince of Xiliang before they notice.
"
That's right, to capture the thief first, capture the king. Princess Jin Yao grabbed her hand and walked out.
"I'll go to the camp and catch him."
But as soon as she took a step, she was stopped by officials.
"Princess," they said, "You can't go. You need to leave now."
What? Princess Jin Yao flatly refused: "How can I leave at this time!"
Even if she died, she would die here.
"Princess." An old official from Honglu Temple looked at her, "You have to go. Even if Fengcheng cannot be defended, it is just Fengcheng. Princess, if you are caught by the Xiliang people, it will be equivalent to Daxia
Ah, for the sake of morale, for the sake of meaning, you must not be caught."
Princess Jin Yao looked at him, she understood what he meant, but - how could she do this? How could she!
"Princess." Another official said solemnly, "You are the princess of Daxia. You dare to come here for Daxia. Now, you must dare to leave for Daxia."
After saying that, he bowed.
The Honglu Temple officials and Fengcheng officials in the hall also saluted in unison, saying in a deep and firm voice, "Princess, please leave as soon as possible."
The old official of Honglu Temple looked at Princess Jinyao as kindly as if he were looking at his own granddaughter: "Princess, I will go to see the Crown Prince of Xiliang, capture him, trap him, and ask the princess to quickly give warnings along the way and build a
Our northwest defense line will cut off the Xiliang people's conspiracy!"
Princess Jin Yao clenched her hands tightly and looked at the officials in front of her. She gritted her teeth and tears rolled down her eyes.
