The red sun hung high in the sky, and there was silence in the desert. Flesh and blood flew all over the ground.
Han Changmu and the leading garrison stood back to back, looking at the corpses on the ground, breathing heavily.
After a desperate fight, their eyes were covered with blood, the wounds they had just bandaged burst open, and blood flowed out, soaking through their clothes.
The two of them took a breath, got on their horses, and galloped in the direction Yao Yaoyuan had left.
Among the undulating sand slopes, three small black spots appeared, stopping behind the sand slope without moving.
Han Changmu's heart sank, and he galloped up to him, turned over, dismounted, and staggered over: "Ah Yao, what's wrong? Why did you stop?" He looked Yao Yao up and down and said, "But where is the injury? "
Being ignored by others, Xie Mengxia rushed over angrily, waved his hands in front of Han Changmu, and shouted: "Hey, Jiuzhao, look at me, have you seen me? My legs have been worn down by horses. "
Han Changmu ignored Xie Mengxia, stretched out his hand to push him away, and asked Yao Yao nervously: "A Yao, what's wrong?"
Xie Mengxia looked behind Han Changmu and shouted again: "Jiu Chao, Jiu Chao, where are the others? Why are you two back? Where is He Cai, where is that boy He Cai."
Han Changmu's face became even darker, and he whispered: "They didn't even run out, A Yao, tell me what's wrong."
Xie Mengxia suddenly sat on the ground, patted his thigh and howled: "Oh, my He Cai, how could you leave me alone, He Cai, He Cai."
Yao Yao suddenly covered Xie Mengxia's mouth, then made a silencing gesture towards Han Changmu, and pointed behind him: "Ancestor, please keep your voice down, and then we can recruit the Turks." She handed the telescope to him. Han Changmu: "See for yourself."
In the telescope, in the yellow sand in the sky, a large area of snow-white tents is like white flowers in full bloom, rolling up and down in the village. Outside the village, you can't see the edge at a glance, and there are countless numbers.
In front of the camp, a flag was fluttering in the wind, and a Turkic man with a sword in hand was patrolling back and forth on horseback.
Han Changmu put down his telescope and murmured expressionlessly: "Why are there so many Turkic camps in that village?"
The remaining garrison fell off his horse, pressed his chest, and screamed in pain, blood gurgling out from between his fingers.
Yao Yao was shocked and quickly supported the garrison and took off his clothes to take a look.
There was a blood hole as big as a bowl on his chest, and the blood flow could not be stopped.
Han Changmu's expression changed and he ran all the way. He didn't realize that the garrison was so seriously injured. He squeezed the garrison's hand and whispered: "Brother, if you hold on a little longer, we'll be there soon." Arrive at the village."
The garrison shook his head and gasped: "I, I heard it. When we arrived, that village was occupied by Turks. Turks."
Han Changmu hurriedly said: "It's okay, we can take a detour, go around and return to the fifth beacon and we will be saved."
The garrison took a deep breath and shook his head slowly: "The side, the side is quicksand, you can't get around it."
Before he could finish his sentence, he tilted his head and lost all breath.
There was no way around the quicksand. These half words were like thunder, exploding in the hearts of the three of them.
Xie Mengxia held Han Changmu's hand and almost cried: "Jiu Chao, Jiu Chao, please think of a way."
Han Changmu pursed his lips tightly, gathered all the food, grass, water and salt in one place, divided it into three parts, and said solemnly: "These things are enough for us for three days. Let's rush to Yema Spring and replenish the water." , go directly to Chiyayi and meet up with Meng Sui and the others."
Yao Yaoning nodded, that was all she could do now. She turned to look at Xie Mengxia who was sitting on the ground and couldn't get up. She just wanted to take this loser with her to the depths of Mohe Yanqi, and she had nothing in mind. end.
Han Changmu took a long breath, sat on the ground, and said to Xie Mengxia: "His Royal Highness, the road ahead is difficult. If you want to survive, you will suffer."
Xie Mengxia nodded repeatedly: "I can do it, I can endure hardship."
Han Changmu looked up at the scorching sun and frowned slightly: "Then leave quickly and stay away from these Turks."
"Wait a minute." Yao Yao pointed at Han Changmu's shoulder and said softly: "Sir, the wound is open. Please re-wrap it before leaving."
Only then did Han Changmu feel pain in his back that was so deep that he couldn't even lift his arms.
After treating the wounds, they dug a sand pit, buried the garrison and the blood-stained cotton cloth deeply, and eliminated all traces. The three of them got on their horses and galloped away.
The sky had just turned dark, and Xie Mengxia could no longer run. He was far behind and panting. He stretched out his arms and wailed: "Stop, stop for a moment, I am exhausted."
Han Changmu and Yao Yao looked at each other helplessly, reined in their horses and stood up, looking back at Xie Mengxia.
Xie Mengxia turned over and dismounted, slumped on the ground, refusing to get up again, waving his hands and breathing heavily: "I, I can't do it anymore, I, beat me to death, I won't leave either."
Yao Yao sipped the water in small sips, letting the water stay in his mouth as long as possible, and smiled seriously: "Your Highness, you have exceeded my expectations. You can actually follow us for half a day."
Xie Mengxia held the water bag and poured it into his mouth.
Han Changmu's expression suddenly changed, he grabbed the water bag and scolded expressionlessly: "Your Highness, you have to sip this water in small sips. The way you drink it, you won't be able to hold it for half a day, let alone three days."
Xie Mengxia choked and spoke with difficulty: "Jiu Chao, I am also your cousin after all. You can't be so cruel to me."
Before Han Changmu could speak, Yao Yao grasped the key point of Xie Mengxia's words, frowned and said in confusion: "His Royal Highness, you are the young master's cousin, then you, you are related to the young master."
She stuttered and couldn't figure out the relationship.
In her previous life, her family had a simple relationship, and she had no other relatives except her parents. When she traveled here, she grew up in Ye Ting, and she was completely confused about her cousins.
Xie Mengxia nodded in confusion: "Yes, my biological mother, Empress Yuan, is the biological sister of King Han, and Jiuchao is the crown prince of King Han."
"King Han, the crown prince." Yao Yao opened his mouth wide and stared at his almond-shaped eyes in surprise: "Is he the first king with a different surname in this dynasty?"
Xie Mengxia tilted his head: "Of course it's him. Are there other Korean kings in this dynasty? Don't you know that Jiuchao is the eldest son of the Korean king?"
The King of Han held a large number of troops and guarded Jiannan Road for many generations. He also had a Queen of the Yuan Dynasty in his palace. Although the son he gave birth to was unlucky, he was a legitimate and eldest son. If he didn't make trouble, the prince would be his.
The Crown Prince of Han will inherit the heavy military and power of Prince Han’s palace in the future.
Yao Yao looked at Han Changmu and twitched the corner of his mouth. Is this man out of his mind? He should not be a good heir, but he went to the Internal Security Department to become a minor envoy who hates ghosts and hates people.
Could it be that you are here to experience life?
Yao Yao quickly went over the past few days in his mind, and felt that he had nothing to offend him, so he put his heart in his stomach and asked tremblingly: "Well, Prince, why didn't you tell me? Get over it."
Han Changmu said calmly without expression: "You didn't ask me either."
"..."
I blame her for thinking this world is so simple.
Seeing Yao Yao's discomfort, Han Changmu raised his lips and smiled, then tapped Yao Yao's forehead with his finger. While she was knocked blind, he quickly suppressed his smile and said expressionlessly: "Since I know If you know my identity, you must be more respectful to me in the future."
Yao Yao snorted, curled her lips and said nothing, but secretly scolded Leng Linjiang. She didn't believe that Leng Linjiang knew nothing about Han Changmu's identity, but he kept it secret from her, and he was not afraid that she would offend Han Changmu. , was eaten until no bones were left.
Leng Linjiang, who was secretly scolded by Yao Yao, was sitting opposite Huo Hanshan in the far city of Chang'an. There were hot pots in front of them, filled with pale white steam, and they were eating happily.
He suddenly felt itchy at the tip of his nose, turned his head and sneezed twice.
Huo Hanshan smiled: "What's wrong? Which girl in Pingkangfang misses you again."
Leng Linjiang sniffed and cursed with a smile: "I wanted to curse twice, but someone is clearly scolding me."
Huo Hanshan smiled and said, "As for scolding you, Ayao has been gone for so long and no one has scolded you. Are you still a little used to it?"
Leng Linjiang chuckled: "No one scolds me anymore. I'm not used to it. I'm a bitch." Smiling, his eyes gradually dimmed and lost their luster. Even the hot pot no longer tasted good. He laughed at himself. Yixiao: "Don't tell me, I'm really not used to A Yao not coming back for so long."
Huo Hanshan also sighed and fiddled with bamboo chopsticks in the hot pot: "You said A Yao is the same. How come I don't know how to send a message back? Now I don't even know where she is, and I don't know where she is." Do you know if you will encounter any danger? I heard that there are very powerful gray wolves in Mohe Yanqi."
Leng Linjiang's heart sank, and he breathed a sigh of relief after a while. He pretended to smile relaxedly and said, "Ayao is skinny and has no flesh on her body. The wolves despise her when they see her, so she must be fine."
Huo Hanshan nodded with a smile, lowered his voice and asked: "How is your investigation of the case at the Ministry of War? Mr. Hou has urged me again today."
Leng Linjiang's face darkened, he shook his head and sighed: "I gave all the files to Liu Fuyin, but he suppressed them. Yande, just leave this case alone and let Liu Fuyin and Hou Fu Please tear it away."
Huo Hanshan looked at Leng Linjiang's troubled expression, and vaguely thought of something. His voice became even lower, and through the hot air, his voice was hazy: "I heard that this case is involved." He hesitated before speaking. He dipped his finger into the cup with some water and wrote the word "Qin" on the table.
Leng Linjiang was stunned for a moment. He had also heard of this rumor. Unfortunately, no matter how widespread the rumors were, without any evidence, they could only be ignored.
