Chapter 101 Untitled-12
Both Liang and Yong have temporarily suspended their troops. Tang Xiaoshi was in Yuanzhou City for a few days, and only heard some news about Liang Guo from the soldiers, but did not hear any news related to Zhao Lin.
She didn't know if Li Qu did it on purpose, or because Zhao Lin was not the coach this time, so these soldiers didn't hear about it.
The more there is no news, the more worried she is. She has nightmares at night, always dreaming that Zhao Lin was killed by Li Qu, and wakes up in the middle of the night every time.
That night she woke up again and couldn't sleep anymore, she got up and sat under the lamp with her clothes on, and Han Nushi talked with her.
"Has De Wang rested?" she asked casually.
"The servant just went out and saw that the light in the study was still on, so she probably hasn't rested yet."
"Come with me to have a look."
Han Nu Shi looked out, it was already midnight, and reminded: "It's late at night, the night is cool, the princess will go there tomorrow morning."
Tang Xiaoshi got up and went out, Han Nvshi persuaded her again, but Tang Xiaoshi didn't respond, Han Nvshi had no choice but to help her put on her clothes and accompany her there.
There was a row of solemn guards in front of the study. She just got closer when a soldier stopped her: "Princess, Your Highness is discussing important matters with several generals, and it is inconvenient for the concubine to go in."
She glanced into the study, and there were a few walking silhouettes reflected on the window paper. It was so close, and in such a quiet night, she couldn't hear the slightest sound inside. It must be a confidential matter, so the volume was deliberately lowered.
"When will it end?"
"I don't know the humble job."
"How long is Your Highness usually busy?"
"About four o'clock."
"So late?" She whispered softly, "What are you discussing? Is it going to war again in the next few days?"
The soldier hesitated for a while and replied again: "I don't know about the humble position."
Tang Xiaoshi looked at the soldier suspiciously, and the soldier lowered his eyes slightly, avoiding her gaze.
After a moment of silence, she turned back with Han Nushi.
After sitting in the living room for more than half an hour, I didn't feel sleepy again. Just lying on the couch, there were two knocks on the door outside. Li Qu pushed the door open and entered the inner room.
"Why haven't you rested yet?" Li Qu was dressed in regular clothes, neat and tidy, and spoke calmly.Seeing Tang Xiaoshi sitting up from the couch, she asked, "I just went to the study, but what's the matter?" She sat down on the side of the couch.
These days he is busy with military affairs, and rarely stays with Tang Xiaoshi. Every time he sees her, he is preoccupied, depressed, and has no energy. He knows that she is worried, worried about him and worried about Liang Guo.
"It's okay, I just can't sleep, walk around." She smiled, "I'm a little sleepy now." Eyelids also started to fight in cooperation.
Li Qu stretched out his hand to caress her tired face, and said softly, "I will accompany you tonight."
"No need." The drowsiness that appeared just now dissipated immediately.
Seeing that Li Qu's expression turned cold, Han Nushi hurriedly explained: "The princess is restless these days, it is difficult to fall asleep, and she is easily awakened by a noise. Your highness has a lot of military affairs, and you have to get up early in the morning. It is even more difficult for your highness to stay here for the princess." Sleep soundly."
He also heard about this matter from the maidservant, but he was too busy to take it into consideration.It's only been a few days, and the whole person has become thinner and haggard. Before, she was so energetic whether she was happy or angry, but now she is always dull, which makes people feel distressed.
He patted Tang Xiaoshi's hand and persuaded: "You have a good rest, I won't disturb you, come and have dinner with you tomorrow."
After he left, it took Tang Xiaoshi a long time to fall asleep. She didn't know how long she had been asleep, but she was woken up by a sound. At this time, the indoor candle lights were on, and it was dark outside, and it was still dark.
Hearing Han Nushi open the door, she asked, "Who is it?"
Han Nvshi hurried in and replied in a low voice: "It's the guard Yan who said he has something important to report."
Guard Yan has disappeared since escorting her here.She still wanted him to inquire about Liang Guo's news, so she said, "Let him in!" Then she sat up.
After seeing the salute outside the screen, Guard Yan replied: "This subordinate has been inquiring about the Beiyong Army for the past few days. I just learned that there is a Beiyong spy in our Daliang Army. This person has passed on my Daliang's confidential military information to you. After appointing King De, King De is discussing with several generals the strategy of attacking Daliang tonight, and the army will be assembled in the morning, and the troops will be dispatched sooner or later, or three days at the latest."
Tang Xiaoshi was shocked, and then angrily thumped off the bed. It was another meticulous work, Li Qu was really keen on this!
Three years ago, 10,000+ Liang soldiers buried their bones in Heyangyuan because Beiyong spied on the military situation. Three years later, the old trick was repeated. How many people did he put in Liang Guo?
Han Nushi said nervously: "You must tell General Zhao the news immediately."
Guard Yan replied: "The gates of Yuanzhou City are closed today, and entry and exit are strictly prohibited. There are soldiers guarding around the city walls. I'm afraid my subordinates will not be able to get out."
Tang Xiaoshi's head was in a mess. If Liang Guo suffered another disastrous defeat three years ago, Liang Guo would be heartbroken and unable to fight against Beiyong.According to Emperor Yong's ambition, Liang Kingdom will definitely be destroyed.
Liang Guo died, and Zhao Lin, as a general, would never live.
When Zhao Lin died, Xiao Dai also died.
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she must not let such a thing happen.
"Have you found out what King De's strategy is?"
"It's still unknown."
She paced back and forth for a long time, and finally stepped out of the screen.
When Yan Weiwei saw her coming out with her coat on, he hurriedly lowered his head and took two steps back.
"Time is running out, no delay, Yan Wei, you should find a way to leave Yuanzhou City and inform General Zhao Lin."
Yan Weiwei was silent for a moment before saying: "This subordinate obeys orders." His tone was not sure.
Now that the two countries are fighting each other, their identities are special, and they are already watched by the Beiyong people, and their every move is under the eyes of the other party.Tang Xiaoshi knew that this was too difficult, even too dangerous for Yan Weiwei, but the situation was urgent, and she had no better countermeasures, so she could only do so.
After Yan Wei left, Tang Xiaoshi stayed up all night.
Li Qu came to accompany her to eat, and she was not as depressed as the previous few days, but lifted her spirits.
Li Qu said with a smile: "Princess has a good appetite today, try this, the most famous snack in Yuanzhou City, someone bought it just now, it's still hot." He brought a plate of breakfast to her.
Tang Xiaoshi thanked her, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Yuanzhou is close to Liangdu, and the taste is similar, but it has the taste of hometown. It's just that I have been in Los Angeles for a few years, and I am used to the taste of Los Angeles, but I can't eat it. used to this."
Li Qu's smile froze for a moment, and then he smiled deeper: "I'll have someone prepare a meal for you according to the taste of Los Angeles."
Tang Xiaoshi hesitated and said, "I want to go back to Los Angeles—I'll go back today, okay?"
Li Qu's movements froze, his face sank, and he smiled reluctantly: "Okay, it's hard here, and you shouldn't have come here. You've become haggard and thinner recently, so it's better to go back early. If you don't want to stay in the palace, Go to Changquan Villa and take good care of yourself. I will ask Zhou He to lead a team to escort you back later."
"Yeah." She nodded with a smile.
After breakfast, Han Nvshi tidied up briefly, Li Qu sent her to the carriage, and said apologetically, "I still have military affairs to spare, so I'll see you off soon." Instead, he told Zhou He to be careful on the road.
A group of people left Yuanzhou City. At lunch time, the horses and horses stopped to rest. Guard Yan took the opportunity to find a free time to leave, and turned back.
The carriages and horses were ready to leave, Tang Xiaoshi sat back in the carriage, and a soldier outside the carriage reported to Zhou He: "The strict guard beside the princess is gone."
"Maybe it's a bad stomach. It's getting late, so we can't delay. Let's set off first, and he will catch up later." Zhou He immediately ordered all the soldiers to get on their horses and set off.
Tang Xiaoshi's nervous heart relaxed a little.
The carriage was swaying, and she was in a daze because she didn't have a good rest last night. She saw Zhao Lin covered in blood again in a half-dream, and her heart twitched suddenly, and she woke up instantly, and something flashed in her mind.
She was concentrating on it, her heart suffocated, and she stopped the carriage suddenly.
"What is the princess' order?" Zhou He rode to the side of the carriage.
She pulled the curtain of the car and stared at Zhou He and asked, "Where's Guard Yan?"
Zhou He glanced around and reported back: "Yan Weiwei hasn't caught up yet."
She stared at Zhou He. Zhou He had an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were extraordinarily deep and energetic. There was a bit of joy and sarcasm in his eyes at this time.
"Where's Guard Yan?" Her voice was suddenly severe.
The soldiers around were startled, Zhou He's complexion remained unchanged, but the emotion in his eyes increased a bit, and he said respectfully: "Don't be angry with the princess, I will order someone to find her for her humble position." Immediately, he called the two soldiers around him.
"General Zhou, let me ask you where the guard Yan is?" She roared angrily this time.
Zhou He was stunned for a moment, he was still sitting high on the horseback, without the respect just now, he sneered: "Isn't the princess clearer? Why did you suddenly ask the humble one?"
Tang Xiaoshi fell into an ice cave instantly.
"You killed him?"
"The humble staff sent a dozen elite soldiers to surround and kill them. Although Yan Huwei is good at martial arts, it is impossible to escape from these elite soldiers." Zhou He teased.
Tang Xiaoshi felt a stabbing pain in her heart, and pressed her fist hard against it.
Only then did she understand why Li Qu readily agreed to send her back to Los Angeles. It turned out that he had already seen her intentions, so he pushed the boat forward and arranged for Zhou He to send her off in person, taking the opportunity to kill Yan Weiwei.
It was she who was too careless and impatient, and took Yan Weiwei's life in vain.
She kicked the car door, jumped off the horse and ran back, Han Nushi chased after her.
Zhou He drove forward to block the way: "Princess, let's get in the car and return to Los Angeles with my humble post! Now even if you go back, you can't take half a step beyond Beiyong, let alone send news to Liang Jun.
"Get out of the way!" she roared with red eyes.
"Princess, please get in the car!" Zhou He's tone also hardened.
"Go away!"
Zhou He didn't give in at all, and ordered the soldiers on the left and right: "Take the princess in the car and go back to Los Angeles."
Two soldiers got off their horses and came forward to pull her.
Han Nvshi also came forward to help push the soldiers, and scolded: "You are presumptuous, how dare you be so rude to the princess!"
The soldier froze, not daring to force himself.
Zhou He sneered: "Why should the princess go back? What I will see when I go back now is how Liang Jun died tragically under the swords and horseshoes of my Dayong Army, which makes me even more sad."
Tang Xiaoshi stared at him fiercely, her heart ached even more, making her unable to hold on, her body staggered.
Han Nushi called out to her in panic, half-embracing her with her arms to support her.
"Princess, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay." She gritted her teeth and squeezed out two words, already covered in cold sweat from the pain.
Distressed, she is very familiar with it, but she has never felt such pain at this moment, it almost made her lose her breath, her legs lost the strength to support her, and her whole body went limp.Han Nushi couldn't help but slowly put her on the ground.
Seeing that she was not pretending, Zhou He dismounted from his horse and walked up to him to check it out. While ordering the soldiers to look for a doctor in a nearby county town, Zhou He carried Tang Xiaoshi back to the carriage.
Tang Xiaoshi weakly grabbed Zhou He's armor, and said weakly: "Send me back, send me back to Yuanzhou!" The second half of the sentence was filled with prayers.
"It's important to treat the princess first."
"I'm not sick, I'll be fine soon, send me back to Yuanzhou."
Han Nvshi grabbed Tang Xiaoshi's arm, she burst into tears, and begged, but Zhou Hehe did not let go.
Tang Xiaoshi's pain this time did not disappear as quickly as before, but continued to hurt until she passed out.
When I woke up again, it was already noon on the second day, and I was in a post house outside the county seat, and my heartache had already healed.
She went out with Han Nvshi, but was stopped by soldiers, and Zhou He walked over from the side.
"Wangfei wants to go back to Yuanzhou?"
"Don't stop me!"
"The lowly position does not stop the princess, if she wants to go back, she can go back." Zhou He chuckled confidently.
Seeing Zhou He so calm and composed, she understood that when she returned to Yuanzhou, the battle was a foregone conclusion.
But she still wants to go back.
