King and General untie their battle robes

Watching Ruan Xi and Li Shu's carriage drive out, Ming Cha gave a slight signal to the person next to him, and that person immediately ran into the door.

Not long after, a group of people quietly came out from the side.

The general that Mingcha had instructed just now led two horses, walked over quickly and quietly, and asked in a low voice: "General Ming, are you going now?"

"Yes," Mingcha took the reins of one of the horses, got on the horse, and turned to Run Liu who had just come out, "I am worried about this Li Shu. The general's whereabouts are unknown now. You should support the affairs of the army first."

Run Liu nodded and looked at him: "Then you should also be careful."

Mingcha raised his horsewhip and led the team towards a direction slightly different from Ruan Xi's and the others. After a sound of horseshoes, he left in a hurry.

Ruan Xi and the others walked very fast all the way. On the fifth night, Li Shu said that the horse was a little tired and suggested to stop and rest.

The road has been bumpy for the past few days, Ruan Xi couldn't bear it a long time ago, so naturally he has no objection.

The coachman untied the horse, parked the cart outside a forest, and then took the horse to drink water.Li Shu said to find some dry wood to make a fire, and asked the king to endure the cold autumn night, and the few people who accompanied him disappeared without a trace.

Ruan Xi stayed alone next to the carriage without horses.Now that late autumn is approaching winter, when the night wind blows, it is already chilling to the bone, not to mention that it is accompanied by the sound of swaying grass and trees in the wild, which envelopes a quiet and desolate atmosphere.

In the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, there was something strange gradually.

Ruan Xi heard it, and Ming Cha, who had been ambushing around, heard it too.

Therefore, when several people approached Ruan Xi on horseback, Ming Cha made a decisive decision and quickly led them to jump out.

Ruan Xi was startled, but after realizing it, he secretly sighed in his heart that he was indeed someone Bian Youli valued, and he was really thoughtful and meticulous.

Mingcha stood in front of Ruan Xi, drew out his sword and stared at the person vigilantly: "Who are you and what do you want to do?"

In the middle of the night, sneaking around in the wilderness, he looked like an unusual passerby.

Unexpectedly, the few people who came were not the vicious people he thought.

As soon as they arrived in front of Ruan Xi, they jumped off their horses and kneeled neatly on the ground: "Join the king."

Seeing this, Ruan Xi and Mingcha couldn't help being stunned, unable to speak for a while.

Looking at this, could it be that he is still loyal to Ruan Xi?

But in the dim light at night, these people looked really unfamiliar.Ruan Xi hesitated, and after calling them up, he still didn't let Mingcha remove them.

Fortunately, these few people don't care.After one of them got up, he took out a stack of paper-like things from his bosom, and offered it to Ruan Xi with both hands: "Your Majesty, this is a letter from the Tai Tuo and Mr. Jiang. Li Shu cannot be trusted, he has ghosts in his heart!"

"Ah?" Ruan Xi was really stunned this time.

Just as he was about to reach out to receive the letter, Mingcha took it over, checked the envelope before handing it over.

The letter was indeed from Zhang Taifu and Jiang Yan, and it was not faked at all.

Ruan Xi looked over it twice, then looked up at the person who came, "You just said, what happened to Li Shu?"

"We don't know either. It's just that the Tai Tuo said that we should pass on the letter and words to the king."

Mingcha frowned and said, "Can the Taifu still send you a message?"

Didn't it mean that they were surrounded by the forbidden army?

Ruan Xi seemed to see the doubts that he hadn't seen clearly.He folded the letter, left half of the visible handwriting and handed it to Mingcha: "Li Shu lied to us, Qiong Ning is fine."

Mingcha quickly took it over, read it carefully, and said in surprise, "This... Qiongning is really all right?"

Several people nodded solemnly: "No problem."

What was said in the letter proved to be true.

The Taifu said that he heard that Li Shu had gone to the border in Qiongning, but he couldn't find out what happened, but soon he heard that the king was returning, so he sent a letter to remind Qiongning that everything is safe and don't fall into the trap.

Jiang Yan explained the identities of these people.

Ruan Xi looked at them, and his tone was quite gentle: "Are you all people who followed Jiang Yan to the Luo Kingdom at that time?"

The person at the front cupped his hands carefully and said: "Exactly. I have gained a lot of knowledge when I went on an envoy with Lord Jiang at that time. After returning to the court, I was praised by the general. Fortunately, I was promoted by the king. I dare not forget the kindness of knowing you." .”

Knowing that Qiong Ning was fine, Ruan Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and asked them about other things, promising that this was a great achievement and that there would be a reward when they returned.

When the group of people were still humbled and retreating, there was another sound of horseshoes outside.Mingcha vigilantly pulled out the sword he had just put away, stood beside Ruan Xi, and looked in the direction of the sound of horseshoes.

"General Ming!"

Mingcha heard the familiar voice, knew it was one of his own, he let out a sigh of relief and put the sword back.

But after thinking about it, the person who came at this time, let alone something happened to Run Liu in the camp, immediately became nervous again.

When the people who came running saw Mingcha, they didn't even see Ruan Xi behind them. They almost rolled off their horses and fell to the ground. Before they could stand still, they hurriedly shouted: "General Ming, the general is back!"

"The general is back?" Mingcha was startled, and immediately asked pleasantly.

He comforted Ruan Xi and Run Liu many times, saying that the general would definitely come back, but he was actually panicked.It's just that the people around him were worried enough, he had to pretend to have the bottom line.

When Ruan Xi heard this man's words, he came out from Mingcha's side, walked up to the man, knelt down and grabbed his clothes, and asked eagerly, "Fu... the general is back? When did he come back? Is he all right? "

When the visitor saw that it was the King, he was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly kowtowed: "Join the King!"

"No, no, tell me," Ruan Xi pulled him up, "Is the general okay, why did he come back?"

"..." The man hesitated for a moment, then chose a question and answered in a low voice, "Not very good."

Ruan Xi tightened his grip on his clothes, and the next words seemed to be very difficult: "Why...is it not good?"

Mingcha also stepped forward and urged: "Tell me quickly, what happened to the general, how did you come back, and when did you come back?"

"The general was brought back by the lieutenant around Youshi, and was...seriously injured."

Ruan Xi froze, immediately let go of the man's clothes, turned to Mingcha and said, "Qioning is fine, Li Shu probably ran away. Leave a few people to look for him, and we'll go back to the camp!"

Mingcha heard that his tone was extremely anxious, and he was also in a hurry, so he quickly asked a few people to stay, and then quickly led a horse: "Your Majesty, ride back?"

The carriage is too slow, and there is no need to take into account the ostentation that the king should have when traveling.Ruan Xi took the horse and jumped on it without hesitation: "Hurry up, let's go!"

It took some time to rush all the way to the camp, and it was already the evening of the next day.

Run Liu stayed in Bian Youli's military tent, he didn't sleep all day and all night, and he had to run back and forth, he couldn't help but feel a little tired at the moment, he leaned on the bed and watched several doctors come and go.

When Ruan Xi and Ming Cha entered the door, he thought he was a phantom he had seen while delirious.

Ruan Xi went straight to the person on the bed when he entered the door, and Ming Cha went to ask Run Liu for details.

Run Liu looked at Ming Cha in a daze, "You guys, are you back so soon?"

Mingcha was so anxious that he shook him vigorously: "Sober! How did the general get injured?"

After being shaken by Mingcha so recklessly, Run Liu finally pulled himself together, and his expression became gritted teeth: "There are spies among the people led by the general! They tricked the general into going to the place where the Luo army was in ambush, and they even met me." There are so many people in the Luo army, the general is outnumbered, so we can only find a small road to escape. But after we retreated to the city, the Luo army suddenly had enough strength, and they all concentrated on chasing there. The general was trapped for several days, so he had to desperately break through , There were only more than 4000 people left when they came back.”

Ming Cha looked at the person on the bed, but his sight was blocked, so he continued to ask: "You said the lieutenant brought the general back? The lieutenant is fine, but with the general's skill, how could he be injured?"

"Although the general is very skilled," Run Liu said after a pause, "but he hasn't rested for a long time, and he discusses military affairs every day. If he persists for too long, he will naturally get tired."

After a while, he became silent.

In those days of stalemate with the Luo Kingdom, Bian Youli was almost restless day and night, exhausting all his energy, they all knew it.How can I have the mind to rest?

But it cannot be replaced, and there is no way to stop it.

The door curtain moved, and a person walked outside.When Run Liu saw the person coming, he motioned him not to come, and then turned to look at Ruan Xi.

Ruan Xi looked at Bian Youli by the bed, didn't look back, and didn't respond to them at all.

Seeing this, Run Liu tugged Mingcha, and gestured: "Come out with me."Then he pulled Mingcha out the door.

The person who entered the door just now was Liu Qing. After Run Liu brought Mingcha out, he pointed Liu Qing at Mingcha and said, "Liu Qing was with the general at the time. What's the matter with you? Ask him first. The lieutenant general is also injured. You can wait later." Go there again. I'll go see how the doctor's medicine is doing."

Mingcha nodded for him to go quickly, and then talked to Liu Qing.

in the account.

Ruan Xi sat by the bed, looking intently at the person in front of him.

Bian Youli didn't know whether he was asleep or in a coma, his eyes were closed, and his eyelashes cast a small shadow, making his face paler and bloodless.

Even if he was weak and haggard, in Ruan Xi's view, it did not detract from his good looks at all.

No matter what appearance or situation, as long as this person is in front of you, there will be no one more beautiful than him.

Ruan Xi gently raised his hand, brushed away a few strands of Bian You's hair from his forehead, and slid it down his face, caressing the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, until he held his hand.

Probably only at this time, when the person involved had no knowledge, he dared to get so close to Bian Youli.

Where do you find such courage in normal times?
