Marry the Regent [Time Travel]

Chapter 33 Leaving the Capital

All the people in the palace who knew the inside story began to get busy quietly. Mrs. Kang hurried over to look for Xue Yunzhou, and when she saw him, she said anxiously: "Yunzhou, do you want to send someone to inform Yunqing's mother and son? Because of your uncle's matter, They and Xue Chong have turned against each other, if the capital really changes, even though Xue Chong is gone, there are still his accomplices, if they intend to take revenge, Yun Qing's mother and son may be in danger."

It was only then that Xue Yunzhou remembered that there were two other people. He knew that his aunt, Mrs. Gu, and Mrs. Kang had a close relationship, so he nodded: "I'll send someone there right away, but just in case, we only wait for half an hour. They still have to leave when they leave, and if they can’t make it in time, they can find a way to join us outside the city.”

Kang was stunned for a moment, she obviously didn't expect her son to say that, she seemed to feel that his words were a little cold, so she hesitated for a moment, but after all, her son was more important, she didn't dare to hold back, she finally nodded: "Okay."

After the palace was almost settled, almost an hour later, Xue Yunzhou was about to give the order to set off, when he received a report that Xue Yunqing's mother and son had arrived, and hurried out to meet them, Kang was a little relieved when he heard the news.

There are still some insignificant people left in the palace, including those concubines in the backyard. Xue Yunzhou doesn't care about them. First, he doesn't bother to care about them. , Song Quan, and other loyal and useful people to He Yuan, he basically recruited them all.

Xue Yunzhou and Xue Yunqing had a carriage, Kang and Gu had a carriage, and the others accompanied them.Such a team is neither huge nor small, and it is quite conspicuous when walking on the street.

Fortunately, their news came in time. At this time, the capital city was still within He Yuan's sphere of influence. After packing up, they quietly left the palace, and rushed towards the city gate under the cover of night.

Xue Yunzhou wrote a letter to Xu Tai, the commander of the Forbidden Army, informing him of the current situation, asking him to prepare in advance, and saying that he was going to go out of the city to avoid it, so as not to become a bargaining chip to threaten He Yuan if he was caught. When He Yuan came back, he would be tied up.

The words are naturally high-sounding, whether He Yuan will come back or not, Xue Yunzhou does not have such a high consciousness to live and die with the capital, not to mention that this is just a civil strife, and he has not even seen the shadow of the Tuli people, but Xu Tai is different , although he is from He Yuan, but he is a native of the ancients. Xue Yunzhou is not sure whether he has feelings for the capital, nor does he dare to gamble, so he can only explain his reasons for leaving as beautifully as possible.

And it is impossible for Xu Tai to expect him, the princess regent, to stay and do something. Naturally, there will be no objections, but other people in the palace have to pretend a little bit, lest Xu Tai see that they are going to run away completely, and guess whether He Yuan is It has been decided to abandon the capital.

If he sees through and suddenly changes his mind and refuses to let him go, it will be troublesome.

He Liangcai, dressed as an ordinary domestic slave, walked by the car and sighed, blaming himself: "The task that the concubine told me hasn't been done yet..."

Knowing that he was talking about selling land and shops, Xue Yunzhou lifted the curtain and smiled at him: "It doesn't matter, anyway, there is no shortage of money in hand, let's keep it if you don't sell it, maybe you will come back later." Looking at the city gate not far away with his probe, he reminded, "Be careful for a while."

He Liangcai pulled the clothes on his body and the hat on his head, and said with a smile, "Okay!"

A group of people approached the city gate, and saw that the atmosphere there was obviously much more tense than usual. There were several times more soldiers on duty, walking around the city wall, and a burly man stood at the gate of the city. Xu Tai, the commander of the imperial army.

Seeing the coachman holding up a signboard of the palace, Xu Tai strode over, glanced roughly at the group of people beside the carriage, regarded them as ordinary attendants, and didn't take it seriously. Lianzi, he cupped his fists at him and said in a low voice, "Wangfei, be careful on the way."

Xue Yunzhou smiled gratefully at him: "Thank you Commander Xu."

The city gate opened slowly, and a group of people followed the carriage out of the city gate. Xue Yunzhou looked back and was relieved to see the city gate closed again.

Xue Yunqing, who was sitting in the corner silently all the way, suddenly said, "How did you deal with Gao Ziming?"

Xue Yunzhou said: "Let him go."

Xue Yunqing's eyes suddenly turned cold: "Let him go? He is Xue Chong's eagle dog, so you just let him go?"

"It's not anymore." Xue Yunzhou said briefly about Gao Ziming's matter, "Now he can't wait to kill Xue Chong, it's okay to let him go, he won't threaten us again."

Xue Yunqing stared at him in disbelief, with an extremely ugly expression on his face: "He is my father's enemy, and you let him go?! Even though he is now an enemy of Xue Chong, the fact that he led the army to ambush and forced my father to jump off the cliff It's true, why did you let him go?!"

Xue Yunzhou froze for a moment, suddenly a little at a loss.

He was not the real Xue Yunzhou, and he never cared much about Xue Guang's death. What he cared about was the threat Xue Chong's influence posed to him and his second brother. Gao Ziming was specially left behind to force him to account for Xue Chong. Right now, because of those 5 people, he is in a mess, he is worried about his second brother, and he is busy running. He has no extra thoughts about Gao Ziming's fate. After all, Gao Ziming has already regarded Xue Chong as his deadly enemy, and it is impossible to threaten him any more. With the second brother.

But he forgot that Gao Ziming did evil for Xue Chong, no matter what the reason was, since he did it, he should be punished by law. In fact, in the modern society, he would never let such a person go easily. He has the recognition for that society Sense of responsibility, sense of responsibility, but here, he forgot all of them.

He still hasn't adapted to Xue Yunzhou's identity, and still hasn't integrated into this society...

Xue Yunqing's face was livid with anger: "It's true that he hates Xue Chong to the core now, but are you sure that what he told you is true? No matter how many years he has been cheated, no matter how miserable he was when he was young, he can Willing to be Xue Chong's minion is not a kind person! Even if you are originally, after so many years, you have already become hard-hearted!"

Xue Yunzhou frowned: "There's no need for him to lie to me. After all, he's fighting alone now. Telling the news just happens to allow us to deal with Xue Chong."

Xue Yunqing's expression was gloomy: "Where has he gone now?"

"You want to find him?"

"nature."

Xue Yunzhou rubbed his head: "Follow the route of Xue Chong's exile. Although Xue Chong will be killed by the prince's people if he goes to a remote place, if Gao Ziming takes his wife and children on the road, he should not catch up so quickly. You You should be able to find him along that road." Xue Yunzhou thought for a while before saying, "Whether he has told the truth, we will know after a while."

Xue Yunqing snorted coldly and ignored him.

Xue Yunzhou didn't have much to say to him. He looked at the situation around him and began to rearrange the situation. The four of them took a carriage and made room for others to squeeze.

The group of people drove through the night, did not stop to rest until noon the next day, and continued on their way after lunch.

At this time, it was already far away from the capital. Seeing more and more ragged people, Xue Yunzhou suddenly realized that something was wrong, and asked suspiciously, "Why don't you see many refugees around the capital?"

Xue Yunqing squinted at him, and sneered: "Didn't the lord issue a killing order a long time ago? All the refugees who approached the capital were arrested and killed. What? You married the lord, and you forgot about these things?"

Xue Yunzhou was startled when he heard this, and this time he finally realized how cruel and heartless the original owner of the regent is.

Gu's words were reproachful: "How do you say it? The prince is kind to us no matter what, let alone Yun Zhou is your cousin!"

Xue Yunzhou glanced at Xue Yunqing, and thought to himself, no wonder he has nothing to say to him, there is really no common language for such eccentric people.

He was not a person who could bear anger, but now facing Xue Yunqing's sarcastic eyes, he was naturally unhappy, and couldn't help but return a sarcastic smile: "It's okay, I don't mind, after all, my cousin has been frustrated since childhood and has a temper It’s understandable that he’s not generous enough.”

"You!" Xue Yunqing glared at him with a gloomy expression.

Not to be outdone, Xue Yunzhou raised the corners of his lips at him.

Gu's and Kang's were so embarrassed that they each pulled their sons in a hurry.

At this time, He Yuan had already received Xue Yunzhou's second letter. He was riding on the horse. After reading it, he put the letter away next to his body. He raised his eyes and looked at the mountain road not far ahead, frowning deeply.

He could imagine Xue Yunzhou's anxiety as he sent two letters in succession. It was basically conjectured based on the situation in the capital. It would be child's play to change the marching route because of these two letters. All you have to do is be careful.

There is a section of mountain road ahead, which is the only way to go, but this terrain is also suitable for setting up an ambush. He didn't know if it was the psychological effect brought by the two letters, but he began to feel a little uneasy, and when he was considering whether to rest in place , Suddenly there was an urgent sound of horseshoes behind.

"My lord—hurry up to [-] miles!"

He Yuan's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he turned his head to receive the letter from the guards close to him, raised his hand to signal the team to pause, saw Xue Yunzhou's handwriting on the envelope, tightened his fingers slightly, and hastily opened the letter.

This is the third letter, and the information in this letter is very clear. He Yuan looked solemn when he read the last letter.

The [-] soldiers mentioned by Gao Ziming are exactly the same as the news heard by the guards sent by Xue Yunzhou. He doesn't believe Gao Ziming, but he believes in Xue Yunzhou. Gao Ziming explained the distribution of Xue Chong's forces. He can think about it later, the most important thing right now The most important thing is to avoid the ambush of the [-] soldiers and horses.

No matter where the other party is ambushing, they must know the path they must pass and have prepared in advance. He only needs to change the route in time to catch the other party by surprise.

He Yuan frowned and pondered for a moment, got off his horse, didn't say camp, just called a few generals to an open space, and said in a deep voice: "Map."

The guard hurriedly spread out the map, and He Yuan quickly explained the current situation, saying: "Determine the most suitable route as soon as possible."

Several generals were taken aback. They obviously didn't expect the weather in the capital to change. They couldn't help but looked at He Yuan. Seeing that his eyes were heavy and his face was calm, they quickly calmed down and quickly focused on the map.

Several people discussed and finally decided on the route. Just as He Yuan was about to get on his horse, he heard the sound of hooves again, and his expression changed slightly.

The news from Zhouzhou is very clear, how could there be another letter?Could it be that something happened to him?

When the letter was presented, He Yuan couldn't wait to reach out to take it. Seeing that it wasn't written by Xue Yunzhou, his heart suddenly relaxed, and he took out the letter paper and unfolded it.

Several generals hadn't left yet, seeing that his expression suddenly became a little strange after reading the letter, they couldn't help but looked at each other, and asked, "My lord, what happened?"

He Yuan raised his head: "General Li's...good news."

Qingzhou is guarded by General Zhao, and General Li leads the army to pursue Tuli. Now General Li has sent a good news...

Several people couldn't believe it: "Could it be Tuli?"

He Yuan nodded slightly, and handed the letter to them: "Tuli has retreated."

After several people read the letter, they all opened their mouths half-opened, and one of them couldn't help but swear: "Grandma has a leg, what's the matter? We are sending troops to reinforce, how come they have good news?"

He Yuan frowned: "Based on the distance, when General Li wrote this letter, the capital had just received news of the defeat. If this letter is true, then the news we received at the beginning was false."

One person said: "This letter is real. This is General Li's handwriting, not to mention that the seal is intact."

Naturally, He Yuan didn't recognize General Li's handwriting. Although he had found General Li's letter in his study, he still didn't have a deep impression on him, so he didn't dare to judge lightly. He only raised his eyes slightly: "You all think this Is the good news true?"

Several people studied cautiously for a while, nodded one after another, and at the same time had doubts: "Tuli came in a menacing way, and he retreated before he tasted the sweetness. Is there any deceit in this?"

He Yuan was silent for a moment: "Retreat first."

After the order was issued, the army rested for a while, then suddenly changed direction and retreated like a tide.

A few men who were hiding on the mountainside not far away were shocked: "What's going on? Why did they retreat suddenly?!"

"Quick! Go and report to the commander!"

A man rushed away, and soon ran to the commander who was ambushing not far away. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a terrified voice from the other direction: "The big thing is not good! The big thing is not good!"

Another man rushed over, panicked, panting, "Our camp's...grain...all...all were burned!"
