The sky is getting whiter.

After sleeping against the tree all night, Du Penglai woke up stiff and stood up stretching.The bonfire at the feet burned overnight, leaving only half-lit ashes.Looking at the weak back figure of Independence not far away, he couldn't help shaking his head and strolling past.

The accompanying guard stopped in front of him, "Mr. Du, this is news for you."

"Back off." Du Penglai received the message from thousands of miles away, glanced at it expressionlessly, and put the paper on the bonfire, and the letter ignited for a moment.She walked up the small mound in front of her step by step.

"Princess, did you stay up all night?" Du Penglai was a little helpless, women are always difficult to deal with if they are too smart.

Looking back, it was a fairy-like face, and even a slight smile was refreshing, "Mr. Du, good morning."

"It's not that Jun Yue didn't sleep, but he woke up earlier."

Ji Yuejun's eyes fell into the distance again, facing south and north.

Du Penglai snickered at the corner of his mouth, and also laughed that Lin Xuan was so blessed, but she couldn't envy her.

"Go one more day to the north and you will arrive at the Zhaojun camp." Du Penglai followed her gaze, "Is the princess missing the prince?"

"..." Ji Yuejun didn't say anything, but Du Penglai saw her body stiffen unnaturally when she heard the word "Prince".

Du Penglai said softly: "I think the prince will never miss you less than you...Even though I brought you here, I still advise you not to go forward, not to find her."

Ji Yuejun pursed his lips and frowned slightly, "Then please tell me, Mr. Du, why the prince wants you to take me away." The tone was gentle and firm.

"..." Du Penglai didn't make a sound and stood with his hands behind his back, and Ji Yuejun didn't urge her to stand deadlocked in the wind.

Du Penglai is at the fork in the road. She has been hesitating all the way, and she should make a decision today regardless of whether she is right or wrong.

"Princess, it is for your own good that my lord let me take you away, and it is for your own good that my lord hides it from you... No matter how powerful your lord is, she is just a mortal, and even if she wants to protect something, she may not be able to protect it well. I think you should be clear about things, so I decided to tell you everything... Now the situation is different..."

Turning around, Ji Yuejun saw the vicissitudes in Du Penglai's eyes, it was not a kind of helplessness, but an indifference that sees through everything, and there are more lingering trivialities in his heart for no reason.

"Mr. Du, please tell me, I would like to hear the details."

"You are the daughter of Emperor Zhou, not Ji Muzhi's biological son..." Du Penglai believes that the more straightforward the expression of complex issues, the easier it is to understand.

"What nonsense are you talking about..." Ji Yuejun has always been dignified and unchanged in the face of danger, but now his expression is ugly.

"I'm not talking nonsense, it's the truth..."

Du Penglai told a long story, and Ji Yuejun stood there for a long time without making a sound after listening to it. His heart was like a sea of ​​waves, and he was sad for the mother he had never met. Thinking about how helpless her life was, let alone her. Mother actually loves Lin Xuan's aunt, and now she and mother are on the same path.

"Frankly speaking, you are the cause of Zhaozhou's war now." Du Penglai stopped talking when he said this, quietly waiting for Ji Yuejun to digest the content of the conversation just now.

Yes, Zhou Guo wants the princess to return to the country. Now that Ji Yuejun is the concubine of King Zhao, how could Zhao Guo let her go easily, not to mention the deep blood feud between Zhao Guo and Zhou Guo.Ji Yuejun's identity is also in an embarrassing situation. On the one hand, due to the name of Concubine Yong, Zhaoguo should protect her, but she is also the daughter of Lin Xuan who killed her father and enemy. Zhaoguo has more choices... not to mention being a When women go to war, they often end badly.

Wars always involve people dying, even many people dying.The lives of the common people will also be affected in various ways, and the contradictions of all classes will become more acute. If all this is caused by one person, then sooner or later this person will become the target of public criticism and be cast aside by the world.

Ji Yuejun shuddered, "It's no wonder the emperor hasn't announced the reason for this campaign... But Zhou Guo didn't say either..."

"Since the emperor has done this, he is naturally acknowledging your status as a concubine. The emperor of Zhou didn't say a word. I'm afraid he also took your daughter seriously. After he announced it to the world, he fell into a passive position for you." Du Penglai was speechless after analyzing, "However, this time and that time. The third prince of Zhou Guo died in battle, Jiang..." The thought changed, "The prince followed Li Li to lead the army and fought very hard. In addition to dispatching troops and generals, wars are more like internal supplies. To put it bluntly, It's just burning money..."

"My lord, are you short of food and salary now?"

Du Penglai's silence was acquiescence, and Ji Yuejun looked at Du Penglai in doubt, "Then why doesn't Mr. Du let me go to the prince now?"

"Princess is a smart person." Du Penglai took a step forward, fiddled with the loess under his feet intentionally or unintentionally, "Who did the prince snatch you from?"

"You mean..." Ji Yuejun raised his head to meet Du Penglai's eyes, his eyes were firm but his heart was rippling, and his mouth naturally hesitated.

"You have a good idea." Du Penglai raised his head, "...the prince is the emperor's younger brother, but the emperor will never indulge the prince in some things, even the prince is not sure, that's why I took the princess away. If the prince is more than [-]% sure, according to her temperament, she will not let the princess leave her... She dares to do anything for you, but this is the only thing that makes her extremely difficult. Since ancient times, Jiangshan and beauties It's hard to choose, not to mention the prince doesn't even have the qualifications to choose now..."

Ji Yuejun was silent, every word Du Penglai said was bold and even presumptuous, but she had no choice but to admit that everything he said was right.

"Mr. Yue is very surprised that Mr. Du is not afraid of the imperial power like ordinary people, but has a kind of calmness to stay in the situation and watch everything." Ji Yuejun's cold voice couldn't tell whether he said this praise or sarcasm.

"Hehe... My hometown is quite special. There have been many emperors in the 5000-year history of that land. After all, it is Huangtu Yipei. Any social form has its end. We are just passers-by in the long river of history. The day of the end. It is a pity that the background of the times is not something we can choose, but the background of the times most affects a person's life."

"Do you know that what you say today will lead to decapitation." Ji Yuejun almost looked at the man in front of him like a monster.

Du Penglai smiled, "Princess, you can't do it, you and the prince are on the same path."

"Then tell me, if the prince is eligible to choose, what would she choose?" Ji Yuejun stared coldly into Du Penglai's eyes as if trying to see through him.

"The prince is a man of temperament."

Tears welled up in Ji Yuejun's eyes instantly, and he murmured: "Don't ask about tomorrow, I just want her to be well now."

"Mr. Du, the prince has always said that you are knowledgeable and wise. Do you think this battle should be fought?"

"I don't like war. War means the tragedy of returning the shrouded body of horse leather, and the separation of wives and children. No one should cause war for personal desires. But...the princess should not blame herself too much. Zhao Guo and Zhou Guo have long had a blood feud. A battle has to be fought sooner or later, and now the emperor is passively participating in the battle, and you give you a reason why he can fight or not, this is what the prince is afraid of."

"The reason why the emperor asked Dingbeihou to guard the city gate was to test the prince..." Thinking of this, Ji Yuejun was afraid for a while.

Du Penglai did not speak, but said in a low voice: "Wang Ye and Hou Ye are friends, there are several people in the court who don't know, Hou Ye has one hundred thousand elite soldiers in his hands, no matter how much the emperor loves Wang Ye, he is still the emperor after all." ruthless……

Ji Yuejun's palms were sweating, she understood that all of Lin Xuan's difficulties and efforts were for her safety.

"if……"

"There are no ifs in life, only cause and effect. Whatever the cause, there will be the effect. The princess doesn't have to think too much, things are not at the end of the mountain, not to mention another village at the end of the mountain."

"Mr. Du, you are right, take me to her..."

"Oh? After listening to my words, the princess is not afraid?"

"I'm not afraid..." I don't want to push her to the limit when there is still a way out.

"My lord is luckier than many people." Du Penglai looked at Ji Yuejun with admiration, "I can put myself in the other person's shoes, and with a brave heart, I believe the road ahead is not so difficult."

Ji Yuejun smiled, and teased: "Mr. Du is indeed the prince's counselor, and he always thinks about the prince."

"Ashamed, ashamed." Du Penglai smiled awkwardly, "The princess is really Lan Xinhui."

"Mr. Yue is just joking. Mr. Du is an outsider who can see clearly...Mr. Du, please be respected by Mr. Yue."

"I can't, I can't—" Du Penglai hurriedly stopped Ji Yuejun when he saw Ji Yuejun salute.

"Sir, don't stop me. This worship is for the lord. The lord's life is still very long. You have to understand that people around you are always admonishing me... I,... also hope that you can help the lord." Ji Yuejun said that his heart was very sour, Lin Xuan His handsome face was vividly outlined in his mind.

Du Penglai's eyes couldn't help turning red, he took a long breath, suppressed the ups and downs in his heart and said: "Princess, don't worry, Du Penglai will do his best every day."

"Well, let's set off today. See if there are any pastries that the prince likes on the way..."

"it is good……"

At this time, the sun is rising and the sun is gushing out.

"My lord, the Marquis of Dingbei has found—!" Chang An excitedly ran to the tent and forgot to salute.

"What—!" Lin Xuan got up in the middle of the night and reviewed the copy for a long time in front of the table, looking restless.

"Master Hou, it's Lord Hou, Dingbeihou—" Chang An excitedly raised his hands and feet, trying to make Lin Xuan understand quickly.

"Ah?! Where is it, where is the person—?" Lin Xuan jumped from the table to the center of the tent, dragged Chang An, and headed out of the tent.

The blood-stained boy on the stretcher had his eyes closed, and his handsome face became swollen due to long-term immersion in water, and Lin Xuan's tears flowed down instantly.Stepping forward slowly, the armor on her body was covered with dried mud, as lifeless as her master.Lin Xuan's lips trembled violently, and he didn't say a word for a while. The soldiers around him were silent, and the mood of the entire army camp was as heavy as a boulder on their chest.

"My lord, quickly ask the accompanying doctor to show Hou Ye." Li Li said, Ding Beihou's injury should not be delayed.

"Yes, yes, yes," Lin Xuanhan nodded stubbornly, and suddenly said sharply, "No!"

Li Li was at a loss, "What the lord is going to do, the injury of the lord Hou can't afford to delay it." A person who has only one breath left may be unable to recover after a short delay.

"This king says no, so no. Where's Wanqing?"

"Go back to your lord, Miss Wanqing has gone to the city to find medicine."

"Zhou Xian, bring the thousand-year-old snow lotus and quickly send someone to find Wanqing."

"My lord, I know that the doctor here is not as good as Miss Wanqing, but at least I can stand up to her. Miss Wanqing doesn't know when she will come back for a while, if..."

"No if! This king will definitely rescue Dingbei Hou! There is absolutely no way she will have anything to do with me, and this king will not allow it!" Lin Xuan said coldly, and the compelling kingly aura stunned the soldiers present I was taken aback for a moment, and no longer questioned, and it was the first time I saw King Yong's contemptuous aura that made people submit.
