princess is everywhere

The two talked a few words, did not dare to stay longer on the road, and soon drove to look for Xu Mu's person.

There were no accidents along the way, and the two sides met soon.Although the soldiers were curious about why their general came back with a girl after going out for a trip, no one dared to ask more under military discipline, and they only accelerated towards the place where Anyang was ambush under Xu Mu's order.

Back and forth, it didn't take too much time, but only half an hour.But when Xu Mu brought people back, the enemies who had set up an ambush before obviously would not stay in place to wait for them, and they had already evacuated.On the dirt road of the official road, the corpse lying on the ground and the dark blood stains all showed how tragic a battle took place here not long ago.

Anyang dismounted first, his face was slightly pale, and he searched for his guards among the corpses.

One person, two people, three people... Anyang counted them one by one, the more he counted, the more sad he felt.These guards are her cronies cultivated in the past few months. Although they have not followed her for a long time, they are all obedient and loyal. They even joined the army and left the capital privately to accompany her.But now because of her impulsiveness, she let them die in a foreign country, even though Anyang is superior, she can't help but feel a little bit guilty.

Xu Mu walked to Anyang's side, his eyes swept over the corpses of the guards, and he knew that most of the men brought by Anyang were folded here.Maybe someone fled after they left, but the situation would not be too good.

He patted Anyang on the shoulder as if to comfort him. Seeing that he was used to life and death, Xu Mu didn't think it was a problem, so he turned his head and ordered the humanity he had brought along: "Send someone to look around to see if there are any injuries hidden, and find them." Bring them back."

The soldiers took orders and led their soldiers to find someone.

Anyang also heard Xu Mu's words, turned around and buried his face on Xu Mu's shoulder, and said sullenly: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have left the city."

She admitted her mistake again, but this time she was more sincere than when she confessed to Xu Mu before—no matter how much she experienced after becoming an animal, Xu Mu actually took it for her and finished it for her, so Anyang could be under the connivance of the latter Occasionally willful.But in reality, she is still that unworldly princess. She never thought that her willfulness would kill so many people, which is too heavy for her.

Xu Mu didn't say anything more to blame, and raised his hand to gently pat Anyang's back, comforting him silently.She knew that Anyang was still young, had experienced too little, and always needed to grow up amidst mistakes and setbacks, and she did the same back then.

After a while, feeling that Anyang was in a better mood, Xu Mu asked again: "You said earlier that a young man suspected of believing in the prince escaped into the woods. In which direction did he go?"

Anyang knew that Xu Mu's question was to distract her. After all, even if the young man really believed in the prince, he had been running for a long time, and it was impossible to chase him at this time.But she still raised her face from Xu Mu's shoulders, revealing reddish eye sockets, and then looked around to identify the direction: "People are running that way, I sent two guards to chase them, and I'm afraid it's too bad for them now." not enough."

Xu Mu had no choice but to hold her hand, squeeze it comfortingly, and then solemnly ordered people to look in the direction Anyang pointed.

Not long after, the corpses of two guards were brought back as expected. They were bruised and bruised, and it could be seen that they had also experienced a struggle before they died.And the soldiers who went to look for them also brought back news: "These two guards left marks before they died, and the subordinates have already sent people to chase them."

Xu Mu's spirit froze when he heard the words, and he understood that Anyang's original guess was probably true - if the young man hadn't believed in the prince's son, the two guards probably wouldn't have deliberately left a mark before they died to let them track them down.

But then again, even Prince Xin showed up in person, I'm afraid the other party is also at the end of his battle.

After dispatching more people to chase after him, Xu Mu said to Anyang after making arrangements, "Your Highness, I'll take you back to Lucheng. The wilderness here is full of blood and blood. I'm afraid it's still dangerous. It's really not a place to stay for a long time."

Anyang pursed his lips and held Xu Mu's hand tightly, but his tone softened three points: "I want to wait a little longer."

Seeing this, Xu Mu knew that she wanted to wait and see how many of her guards could be found.And such a request made Xu Mu unable to refuse for a while. After thinking about it, he stopped persuading him and just waited with Anyang. There was careful work, so Xu Mu also wanted to see who were found.

Fortunately, it wasn't too long before the ambush ended, and Xu Mu's men didn't keep them waiting, and found all the guards in Anyang after two quarters of an hour.Whether the injuries were mild or severe, those who were able to run away in the first place have now saved their lives.

****************************************************************************

When Anyang returned to the house in Lucheng, it was less than a day since she left, and it was still dark.

The maid who opened the door was very surprised to see Anyang come back: "Girl, didn't you go out of the city today? Why did you come back so soon?" After speaking, she glanced behind Anyang, only to find that what Anyang took away and brought back were completely two people. After dialing someone, he immediately grasped the courtyard door nervously.

This maid was newly bought in Lucheng, so she didn't know Anyang's identity, and Anyang didn't want to take her with her when she went to Dingzhou.Now returning to this peaceful courtyard and seeing this ignorant and ignorant little maid again, Anyang felt a little dazed in his heart.She didn't notice the little maid's nervousness, and led Xu Mu into the door, feeling depressed and unwilling to respond.

The servant girl naturally didn't dare to stop her, so she hurriedly stepped aside to let the courtyard door open, looked at Xu Mu secretly, and then immediately withdrew her gaze - no one, this person is good-looking, but he is full of evil spirits, and looks very fierce .

Neither Anyang nor Xu Mu had any intention of explaining. After Xu Mu sent Anyang to him, he left soon.

Xu Mu naturally misses Anyang, and with all the things that happened today, she really wants to stay by Anyang's side to accompany her.But at the same time, she understands better that it is not wise to let Xin Wang's son flee outside, and the father and son are in the same line of unscrupulous methods.She didn't dare to underestimate the prince just because he was young and didn't know how to fight. Instead, she would guard against him like a poisonous snake in the dark.

And Xu Mu went there for three days, and when he came back, it was already late at night three days later.

There was a knock on the courtyard door, and it was the soldiers Xu Mu left behind to protect Anyang who opened the door, and they let her go naturally when they saw her come back.It's just that except for the dim light from the lantern at the door, it's pitch black everywhere, and everyone in the house must have rested.

Seeing this, the soldiers explained in a low voice: "General, Your Highness hasn't gone out for the past few days, and the night break is also early, so I'm afraid he's asleep now."

Xu Mu nodded when he heard the words, and waved his hand to signal him to retreat, and he didn't need the other party to lead the way-this house was leased by her, and when she sent Anyang to settle down, she personally watched it around and arranged for the defense, so she is not unfamiliar with this place .

After dispatching the soldiers, Xu Mu walked away at leisure, and arrived outside Anyang's room in a short while.

The room was pitch black, and it was getting late, and Xu Mu didn't intend to disturb Anyang's rest.However, when she first rented this house, Xu Mu thought that she might also live in it, so she also reserved a room for herself in this house... At that time, she had a little selfishness, so she reserved this room for herself. The room I stayed was next to Anyang.

Xu Mu has been very busy these past few days. Firstly, he has to check the details of Anyang's side, and secondly, he has to hunt down Prince Xin.Simply this time it was not in vain, she hadn't found out about the details, but she believed that Prince Wang had already been caught by her.

Now that the Dingzhou rebellion has come to an end, there is no need to worry about details, and we can wait until later to investigate slowly.

After Xu Mu finished his work, he rushed back overnight.She didn't know why she was in such a hurry, but she just wanted to see Anyang earlier, but unfortunately when she came back, it was already late at night and she had already fallen asleep.

Stopping outside Anyang's room for a while, Xu Mu didn't mean to disturb the other party, and wanted to go back to the room to rest with exhaustion.Just as he stepped forward, he suddenly heard a scream in Anyang's room, followed by the sound of a cup falling to the ground.

Xu Mu heard that the scream was from Anyang, and was startled immediately, without thinking, he broke into the door directly.

In the middle of the night, it was pitch black inside and outside the room, and there was still a little moonlight outside, so the room was completely dark.In this darkness, the sudden sound of breaking the door was even more frightening, so that the screams that had calmed down just now sounded again, and this time it was sharper than the previous screams, even so sharp that they were a little out of tune.

Xu Mu's footsteps when he entered the door were frightened, and then he ran even faster in the direction of the sound.In the end, because the room was too dark, she bumped into someone without seeing anything clearly, but what was heard from the person who was hit was a strange exclamation.

Realizing something was wrong, Xu Mu quickly restrained him and asked sharply, "Who is it?"

However, the other party did not answer her. Instead, he shouted in a high voice: "Come here, someone broke in!"

Hearing this voice, Xu Mu suddenly thought of something. Just as he was about to let go, he saw a flash of fire in the room, and a faint halo scattered—it was Anyang on the bed who lit the fire, and her face was still a little pale. , but after seeing the situation in front of him, he was a little hard to say.

At this time, Xu Mu also saw clearly, who was the one who was pressed by her shoulders to the ground if it wasn't the newly bought maid?She let go of her hand in embarrassment, and explained to Anyang: "I thought there was a villain in your room."

The little maid also recognized Xu Mu.A few days ago, Xu Mu sent Anyang back. Even though Anyang didn't explain anything, she guessed that the relationship between the two was not simple.But she felt very wronged, rubbed her shoulders and got up, this time she didn't care whether Xu Mu was fierce or not: "I think you are the villain, how can you break into a girl's boudoir in the middle of the night?!"

Xu Mu ignored the little maid, and only looked at Anyang: "I just came back, and I heard movement outside the door, and thought something happened to you...Are you okay, you don't look very good?"

Anyang originally woke up from a nightmare. When he first woke up, he was really frightened by the nightmare, but after this shock, he calmed down a lot.She didn't speak, and stretched out her hand to pass the fire bag forward, and Xu Mu naturally stepped forward to take it when she saw it.Then the next moment, he was thrown into his arms by a soft body: "Why did you come back?!"

Xu Mu's heart softened, and then he raised his hand and hugged her back.
