Attacked that prince!

Waking up again in her sleep, Qu Muting sat up, looked at the dim light in the room and couldn't sleep anymore, every day she was here seemed like a year, if it wasn't because of the continuous fever, the old doctor tried her best to dissuade her With Shen Qi hiding from her as soon as he saw her, Qu Muting really couldn't stay for a day.

She even felt that the reason why she was so lingering on the sick bed was mostly because she was worried about Zan Lang. If Zan Lang was by her side now, no matter what the disease was, she would have recovered from it long ago.

There was a sound of wind outside the window, blowing the leaves in bursts, and tonight was destined to be another sleepless night. Although the old doctor prescribed tranquilizing medicine, it didn’t work for her. After being awakened, she couldn’t fall asleep again .

There was a burst of hurried footsteps, Qu Muting seemed to have lost his concentration, but she clearly heard it just now, she closed her eyes and listened carefully to the sound of footsteps, it was downstairs, And downstairs lives Shen Qi!

It was so late at night, what did Shen Qi call people for?Qu Muting looked dignified, got up and opened the door of the room, leaned over the railing and looked down, and sure enough, he saw Shen Qi's room was brightly lit, and the figure inside was shaking, obviously discussing some important event.

Why did you choose to discuss things in the middle of the night, and still be so quiet, did you want to hide it from someone?If you want to hide it from her, the only one who can hide it is her!

Qu Muting grasped the railing subconsciously, his lips turned pale, and the veins on the back of his hands gradually emerged. Judging from the time when Shen Qi contacted Zan Lang, he might have received the news from Zan Lang. The Wizards convened everyone to discuss here overnight!

Zan Lang, something must have happened!

The "boom" in her mind was filled with a huge roar, and Qu Muting's feet went limp and she fell to the ground, her hands and feet were cold in an instant, panting heavily like a fish on the verge of death, only in this way can she keep breathing.

There was cold liquid running across her face, Qu Muting stretched out her hand to touch it, only to realize that she stood up while leaning on the railing, and immediately ran downstairs, regardless of the short distance of one floor, she was stumbled during the process Countless times, he almost ran to the door of Shen Qi's room with both hands and feet, and pushed the door open.

Sweeping his gaze over everyone's faces one by one, Qu Muting saw the dodging gazes of those people, and finally turned his gaze to Shen Qi's face, and firmly fastened the door frame, before asking, "Where's Zan Lang?"

It was only three words, but she had exhausted all her strength. She was eager to hear the answer, but she was afraid of hearing the answer, the answer that she already vaguely knew.

Shen Qi was the first to wake up, and walked a few steps over to help the princess, and then quickly said with a smile on his face: "Why did you come down in the middle of the night? Are you feeling unwell? Or are you having a nightmare? It's okay." It's fine, we're all here. Your Highness hasn't responded yet, and in my opinion, it will take two days, so I'll go back to rest with peace of mind, and it won't be too late when I recover from my illness."

"I ask you where Zan Lang is?" He paused every word, weeping blood every word.

The smile on Shen Qi's face couldn't be put on, but he had to pretend if he didn't, at this moment, he was the backbone of these people, if he couldn't bear it, then it was really doomed, and now His Highness's whereabouts are unknown, His duty is to protect the safety of the empress!

The subordinates sent to Zhulu City sent an urgent report overnight. Just as the concubine guessed, His Highness has not returned after the night visit to the Northwest Army, and according to the news from the Northwest Army Camp, His Highness has probably been captured by Chang Xun Living!

After Shen Qi got the news, he immediately summoned all the generals to discuss how to rescue His Highness, and more importantly, since Chang Xun dared to trap His Highness so unscrupulously, it can be seen that King Pingyao I am afraid that they have already made sufficient preparations, and they will face the battle at any time. Now that the battle is imminent, but the coach is captured, the morale of the army will definitely be affected by this.

This is a test, a test for Shen Qi, a test for these generals, and a test for thousands of soldiers.

But is this not a test for Qu Muting?

Grasping Shen Qi's arm tightly, Qu Muting turned around and stared at Shen Qi's eyes, with a cold light in his eyes: "I'll ask you one last time, Shen Qi, where is His Highness the Crown Prince now? If you don't tell the truth, then Bullying the king! How to deal with the crime of bullying the king, I think everyone here understands, right?" He raised his head and swept over one by one: "If you don't understand, I can explain it to you today!"

At that moment, Shen Qi seemed to see the shadow of His Highness the Crown Prince on the body of the Crown Princess in a trance. That kind of arrogance that looked down on the world, without anger and prestige, as if she could compete with the world with her own strength. At this moment, she is Not afraid of everything, but because of this, Shen Qi became more and more afraid to tell the truth.

Because he knew that if the Crown Princess found out that His Highness was captured by Chang Xun, she would definitely not let it go. The war had not yet begun, so he could not put both the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess in danger at the same time!Just because he doesn't say it doesn't mean everyone won't say it.

"Your Highness, Your Highness was captured by Chang Xun, and his whereabouts are unknown now." The Crown Princess was so furious that not everyone could bear it.

Qu Muting's eyes fell on that person, with a dry and thin monkey cheek, seeing her gaze sweeping over, he hurriedly stepped forward, knelt in front of Qu Muting, flatteringly said with a little earnest tone of begging for credit: "Master Shen summoned me overnight just to discuss this matter. Now that His Highness's whereabouts are unknown, I'm afraid that villain Chang Xun has already noticed and took precautions."

"Really?" The moment the guess in his heart was confirmed, Qu Muting calmed down instead, looked around, looked at the expressions on everyone's faces, and then reconfirmed and asked: "Is he telling the truth?"

Shen Qi sighed, and turned his face heavily to the side, and among the rest of the people, some shook their heads, some sighed, and some looked at the man kneeling on the ground with a look of daring to be angry but not daring to speak, but none of them spoke. , For a while, the room was eerily quiet.

Only then did Qu Muting lower his head, and asked again: "They don't want to tell me, so I have to ask you again, is it true that His Highness was captured by Chang Xun, and his whereabouts are unknown now?"

The man immediately replied: "It is indeed the truth. Master Shen ordered you not to tell the empress, and you will have no honor with me! I beg your empress to check it out."

When Shen Qi heard this, he snorted heavily, but he didn't say a word, no doubt tacitly acquiescing that it was he who ordered not to tell the Crown Princess about this matter.

Hearing this, Qu Muting nodded in understanding, and then asked, "Do you still have a wife and children in your family?"

It can be said that the question was wrong. Although the man looked dazed and didn't know what the Crown Princess meant by asking this question, he still replied truthfully: "There is no old man in the family, only a wife and children."

"How old is the child?" Qu Muting stared at his nails. There were still bloodshots on them when she clasped Shen Qi's arm forcefully just now. There were a little flesh mixed in the bloodshots, which showed how much strength she had used at that time. But Shen Qi didn't move at all, his arm might be scarred.

This scar will probably last forever, she has troubled Shen Qi too many times, and now, she is afraid that she will trouble him again.

The man at the bottom had been kneeling all the time, and his knees were sore and numb at this time, but the princess didn't ask him to get up, so he could only continue kneeling and replied: "The older one is fifteen years old, and the younger one is seven years old."

"You're almost an adult." Qu Muting's eyes fell on him again, and after looking at him for a while, he said, "Do you know why I didn't let you get up?"

"This, I don't know about my humble position." Due to the oppressive atmosphere, a layer of cold sweat began to appear on the man's face. No matter how stupid he is, he should know that what is waiting for him is probably not the favor of the princess, but a big fight. Disaster.

"I don't know?" Qu Muting chuckled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, it was more cold and cruel: "Your Highness is missing now, and the coach Shen Qi ordered you to strictly keep secrets. What about you? How did you do it?" You know that the two armies are about to fight, but you easily leaked such important secrets, just to flatter me! Oh, look at this room, there are so many people standing, all of you are personally selected by His Highness Come out, look at them, and then look at yourself!"

Qu Muting flicked his sleeves, walked to the middle, and said in a loud voice: "They are all standing, they are all strong and good men, they did not hesitate to offend me in order to keep such a secret! And you? You are servile, today you can reveal such an important secret in this room, how about going out this door? How can you let me believe in your loyalty? How can you let me entrust His Highness to You? How can I entrust this country to you?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I beg your Majesty to make amends. I am so humble, I am also concerned about His Highness's safety!" The man knelt on the ground, walked over step by step, hugged Qu Muting's leg and cried loudly: "I just hope that Your Majesty can come up with an idea as soon as possible. Your Highness rescued him, you have no ambiguity!"

Pushing away a step and breaking free, Qu Muting looked at him and said, "Your wife and children will be taken care of by the imperial court for you. When the children grow up, they will only treat their father as one who died for the country. I can't tolerate someone like you who ignores her in order to seek her own interests! Shen Qi, drag her out and deal with it according to military law!"

Leaking military secrets before the war, according to military law, will be executed with a stick!

Looking around, everyone has their own expressions on their faces. Qu Muting can't see their expressions clearly and can't guess what they are thinking. Some people may think that she is unreasonable. She is the one who insists on telling the prince. The whereabouts, now that he said it, he even lost his life, isn't it wronged?

But do you have to say it when you ask?She could only get Zan Lang's whereabouts from one person, and that person could only be Shen Qi. If Shen Qi didn't tell her, it meant that Shen Qi felt that he couldn't tell her the news. It was a military order!

Because she can violate the military order with just one word?Then why do you need those tortures?How many people have been tortured and even tortured to keep a secret? Don't they feel wronged?She just said a word, if she couldn't stand it, then she couldn't keep this secret at all!After leaving this door, within three days, there will be a lot of rumors, and by then, Zan Lang's situation will be really dangerous!

She must ensure that everyone here strictly keeps this secret, because this secret is not only related to Zhan Lang's safety, but also to the success or failure of the entire army. When Zan Lang is away, she will keep it for Zan Lang Soldiers, hold on to the morale of the army and not be shaken!

At this moment, she represents not only herself, but also Zan Lang!

"The rest of you must be able to understand Mr. Shen's painstaking arrangements." Qu Muting took a look at Shen Qi before continuing: "This matter must be kept a secret and must not be leaked out. I want to ensure that you Everyone keeps their mouths shut!"

"Humble job understands." Uniform voice.

"Shen Qi, His Highness has always valued you, and I hope that you will not disappoint His Highness at this critical moment." Qu Muting said immediately: "The responsibility of leading the soldiers falls on you, step up training and be ready for battle at any time." Prepare."

"Yes. I understand." Shen Qi asked again: "Where is Your Highness?"

"Drop a team and follow me." Qu Muting said firmly, "Leave immediately."

"Impossible!" Shen Qi panicked, and quickly stopped: "Your Majesty is still seriously ill, so you must not act so recklessly. The matter of rescuing His Highness should be handled by the humble staff."

"You are the coach, if you leave, Chang Xun raises troops, who will fight?" Qu Muting asked bluntly.

However, Shen Qi, who asked only one sentence, was speechless. He wanted to say more, but was interrupted by the princess: "There is no other suitable person for this matter except me. Rescuing His Highness must be done in secret, and only I will cooperate with you." You can go, the battle is coming, and you can play a greater role on the battlefield, I believe His Royal Highness will also think so."

Shen Qi still couldn't agree with it: "But...the Northwest Military Camp is heavily guarded, and even His Highness has been planted on it, so I'm really worried."

"Then do you think you, which one of you is sure that you can enter the northwest as if entering a land without people, and bring the prince back?" Qu Muting asked back.

Everyone knows the skills of His Highness the Crown Prince. Even His Highness was captured. It can be seen that the Northwest Army Camp should not be underestimated. It is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. It would be even more difficult to bring out the food from the tiger's mouth from the Longtan and tiger's den!

"It can't be right?"

"Maybe I can try."

The door of the room was pushed open, Qu Muting looked at the person at the door, and quickly realized: "What about now? Shen Qi, are you still worried now?"

Shen Qi also didn't react, looked at Zan Zixin at the door, and hurriedly said: "It would be best for the prince to go out."

"Then it's settled. Uncle Wang and I will set off immediately to rescue His Highness the Crown Prince. Shen Qi is on standby at the spot and will fight at any time." Qu Muting looked at Zan Zixin after making a decision: "What does Uncle Wang think?"

"Since the empress has decided, let's go."

Listening to Zan Zixin's words, Qu Muting's heart sank slowly.She had typed countless drafts in her mind just now, thinking about how to persuade those people.She knew that her level might not be as good as those of them, but there was one thing that Qu Muting was 100% sure that any of them was not as good as her, and that was Zan Lang's safety.

She may not have outstanding abilities, but she is better at adapting.It is a military camp after all, no matter who it is head-on, no matter who they are, they will not have the upper hand, so Qu Muting's purpose is to outsmart, she has lived in two worlds anyway, and she has seen and knows more than these people, experience This is her advantage, but she can't directly say this advantage.

The arrival of Zan Zixin just liberated her from this problem.

Before leaving, Zan Zixin explained many problems to Shen Qi. When he came, he brought 20 people and would arrive later. Because he was worried on the way, he rushed to meet them first. He did not expect to arrive so quickly. It's time.

Originally, I wanted to quietly confirm whether it was the team of the prince and his party, but I didn't expect to hear such a big thing, and it was a coincidence.

That night, under the leadership of Zan Zixin, the itinerary plan was re-formulated and arranged, and Qu Muting was able to set off with Zan Zixin as he wished. Everything was going on in an orderly manner, but Chang Xun on the other side did not go so smoothly.

Chang Xun has been in a state of anxiety ever since he learned that what he captured was actually a woman. This state caused him to vent all his negative emotions on Zan Lang. All the items displayed in the dungeon, almost He used them all over again, but he still couldn't get more news from Zan Lang's mouth.

Seeing that Shizi's itinerary is getting closer and closer, he will soon arrive at Zhulu City, but he doesn't even have any useful news, how can he explain to Shizi?How to explain to King Pingyao?

"My lord, the prisoner has passed out." The executioner looked at Zan Lang who had passed out, not knowing what to do.

There was a figure shaking in front of her eyes, and Zan Lang was already numb. These days, her body was covered with new wounds and old wounds, and there was nothing good at all. In addition, the dungeon was dark and humid, and the wounds would soon begin to fester and ooze pus. Water, if this continues, Zan Lang feels that she might not be able to make ends meet, and her only chance is when Chang Xun comes to torture her, only at that time, she will have a chance.

"Wake up, keep beating, I don't believe her bones are really that hard!" Chang Xun gritted his teeth and said, "Beat until she is willing to speak."

"Wait a minute." The execution whip was grabbed by someone, Yao Zheng walked up to Chang Xun in a few steps, and asked, "How long do you want to beat, my lord?"

"What do you mean, Mr. Yao?" Chang Xun was a little impatient.

"As my lord said, the person in front of me is not the prince at all. What's the point of continuing to fight? Could it be that if you beat her to death, your lord will get what you want? If she refuses to speak, there must be something wrong with her." The fact that she is willing to speak up, a woman is willing to keep a secret for him, shows that in this woman's heart, the crown prince's position is extraordinary, even if your lord beats her to death, it will be of no avail!"

"Then what's the master plan?" Although Chang Xun's tone was not very good, he still obeyed Yao Zheng's words and asked people to withdraw: "The son is coming soon, should we use this woman to give the son a job?"

"Oh, of course I have a way to get her to talk." Yao Zheng sneered before saying, "She's not afraid of life, she's not afraid of death, do you want to know if she's afraid of living or dying?"

"What do you mean?" Chang Xun frowned: "How can we live without life, and die without death?"

Yao Zheng took out a red sandalwood box from his arms, held it up to Chang Xun and said, "Does your lord know what this is?"

Opening the box, there were neatly packed pills inside. Chang Xun took out one, smelled it, and there was a faint bitter taste: "Poison | medicine? You want to use poison | medicine to control her ?”

"Heh." Yao Zheng shook his head and said, "This is a good thing, commonly known as 'Xiaoyao Pill'. After eating this thing, you can do whatever you want. The wonderful taste is more enjoyable than a god. Just feed her this , At that time, what news does the lord want, and is he afraid that she will not spit it out obediently? Hahaha, not only that, when the time comes, when she can't leave, the lord can also manipulate her to return to Zan Lang's side, and she will also Will obediently listen to adults."

"What medicine? Is it reliable?" Chang Xun frowned: "Where is the antidote?"

Yao Zheng had a look of pride on his brows, he held up the rosewood box and walked to Zan Lang's side before saying, "Where is the antidote? Under the control of this medicine, you will never be reborn forever!"

Those words were for Zan Lang, and although Zan Lang was unconscious, she listened to it for a long time. Her body resisted, but her consciousness was a little bit chaotic, and then she felt that someone stuffed her mouth into something. A pill, the taste is slightly bitter, but it makes Zan Lang feel a little unexpectedly familiar.

I pressed the pill on the tip of my tongue, trying to recall where I tasted this taste, and then I was punched hard in the abdomen, and the pill on the tip of my tongue slipped down my throat, and then my consciousness started again. blurred.

"My lord, take this medicine for three consecutive days and use up all the boxes. Then just wait, she will cry and beg us. At that time, you can ask whatever your lord wants." Yao Zheng held his hand. The box on the table was handed over to Chang Xun: "My lord, take this box first, and come to me to get it when it's used up."

Zan Lang didn't know how long it had passed, her consciousness was fuzzy, she just felt that the pain from those wounds on her body was disappearing little by little, and the wounds that were painful and numb had miraculously healed up, she desperately wanted to recall What was that familiar smell? Then she opened her eyes abruptly and looked at the criss-cross wounds on her body. She remembered that the pills that Yao Zheng gave her were the same painkillers that the old doctor prescribed back then!

It turned out that Zan Lang's expression was a little inexplicable, she couldn't understand why Yao Zheng gave her painkillers, or what was Yao Zheng's purpose?What did he mean by those words?

After knowing that the pill was just a painkiller, Zan Lang relaxed her vigilance a little. She thought that taking some painkiller would be a good thing for her current situation and help her recover as soon as possible. What she didn't expect was that, Because of this wrong judgment, how much pain she faced later, and only later did Zan Lang truly understand what Yao Zheng meant by saying that you must live or die, and you must die!

The author has something to say: on the third day, life is better than death
