Chapter 110 Broth

After the grassland entered autumn, it was very cold in the morning and evening. Dolan sent boiled medicine and broth at noon, and at night, a tall young man brought in a bucket of water and built a brazier for Zhao Yuan.

"There are sheep cubs during the day, so I didn't take care of you," the young man said, with a childish voice, "Hurry up and wash it, the smell of blood is too strong, and it will attract wolves at night."

He glanced at the battle armor on Zhao Yuan again: "Give me your clothes after washing, and I will hide them."

Zhao Yuan fell asleep next to his father in the afternoon. Although he was sore all over his body at the moment, he felt better mentally.He took the two sets of herdsmen's robes from the young man, with clean inner clothes folded on top, and said gratefully, "Thank you...are you Dolan's brother?" Seeing that the two looked somewhat alike.

As a result, the young man said with a straight face: "I am her younger brother, Along Ke."

Zhao Yuan: "..." Those who eat meat since childhood are different!

Maybe because he saw Zhao Yuan's exhaustion, Along Ke didn't say anything more, lifted the curtain and left.Zhao Yuan waited for a while, then stood up and took off his armor slowly. Only then did he smell the unpleasant smell of blood and sweat on his body, and he couldn't help being distracted.Having grown up so big, even if he followed his father to the barracks where big guys gathered, he still lived a more pampered life than ordinary sergeants. At least he had never worn overnight clothes except for fighting, and he had never been so embarrassed...

The armor was thrown on the carpet with a dull sound, Zhao Yuan took off his battle robe, grinning in pain.He looked down and found a bloodstain on his left arm, and a tear in his inner garment, which should have been caused by a saber.Zhao Yuan used half a bucket of water to scrub. There were no serious injuries on his body, just scratches, and scratches on his face and neck, which were painful. After washing, he changed into a clean underwear and wrapped his arms A circle of white cloth will make the whole body refreshed.

Zhao Yuan moved the remaining half of the bucket of water to the side of the felt blanket where Zhao Chen was lying. When he pulled out the arrow earlier, he had already removed the armor for Zhao Chen. Now he just needs to take off the inner robe carefully.

The man lay there unconsciously. After taking off his clothes, he revealed strong and smooth muscles. His shoulders were broad and his waist was narrow. His abdominal muscles could be described as beautiful. His long arms and legs were enough to attract him even with his eyes closed. people.

Zhao Yuan sat cross-legged on the side, drooling habitually at first, and then feeling sad for a while.He twisted the veil, first wiped Zhao Chen's face, the blood was wiped off, and the exposed skin was pale after blood loss.

"Father?" He leaned forward and kissed the man's cold thin lips, his voice was soft and hoarse, "Hurry up and wake up."

In the end, no one responded to him.

Zhao Yuan sighed, and continued to wipe Zhao Chen's body, thinking about things while wiping.He didn't believe that his father was not prepared at all. Yuan Chu's betrayal came too suddenly. Could it be that his father really didn't know at all?

But when he looked at the weak man in front of him, he couldn't help but believe that his father couldn't take his life as a joke!In fact, he has always deified his father. After all, Zhao Chen is not a god. He has weaknesses and negligence... But this time, they seem to have stumbled a little bit.

Zhao Yuan recalled carefully that last night, Yuan Chu and his son made a detour to besiege Dayong City ahead of time, which was agreed by them in advance.When the dust settled, Ju He took his soldiers to chase Xian Yuhu and his party, and Jia Xun followed Wei Hong and others to search the city to deal with the prisoners. The former involved Xian Yuhu fleeing with Princess Dayong. No, the latter... He can't remember clearly, but Jia Xun is quite eye-catching, so it's normal to follow Wei Hong and the others.

As for Wu Heng and the others, Zhao Dazheng and Yang Huaixi were all his own soldiers, and they left with Ju He, but Wu Heng and Cui Ming each led their own teams, perhaps wanting to share a piece of the pie, and went to Dayong City.Only he will definitely be with Father.Bingren stays at Xiguan, what about Bicunding and the others?

Zhao Yuan's gaze gradually sank, it seemed that from the time they returned, Yuan Chu and his son separated them from the guards without any trace.Just imagine, Yuan Chu is my father's diehard loyalist. Yuan Jue and him had a friendship of eating and sleeping together when they were young, and they were both generals with common interests. No matter in anyone's opinion, they had no reason to betray their father.

Everyone, including Father, was careless.

Zhao Yuan changed Zhao Chen's clothes, because remembering what Dolan's father said, he was afraid that Zhao Chen would get hot, so he didn't dare to sleep.The place where they lived was a small tent piled with sundries, but because the tent was ventilated, they stayed comfortably.

He leaned cross-legged on a pile of hay behind him in a daze, the surroundings were quiet, only the whistling of the wind blowing across the grass, unlike in the big camp, although it was outside the city, even though they were all tents, there was the light of torches outside , there are patrolling footsteps, and the soldiers on night watch whispering... It's not like the house in Fucheng, there is not even a sound outside, at least when he is disturbed, my father will wake up, hold him and chat with him A few words to lull him to sleep.

It's too quiet here.

Zhao Yuan forced himself to think about something, such as waiting for Father to wake up, should they go back, how to go back...

Going back is unlikely and unwise for the time being.

He gradually concentrated his attention, thinking, their father and son disappeared so suddenly, and he wondered how Yuan Chu would explain it to others?I'm afraid it won't be a good word, maybe they will be charged with a crime.If Yuan Chu, who was Zhao Chen's former subordinate, framed him, it would be a sure thing!However, Jia Xun and the others will not believe it, and Uncle Wei may not believe it. Although whether they believe it or not is not the key, at least Jia Xun will know that something happened to them, and according to the other party's ability, it will be a matter of time to find them all the way secretly. !

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuan felt much better.It's a pity that he and Father can't just wait where they are, if Jia Xun can be found, so can other people with malicious intentions.Apart from this matter, he was most worried about the mansion.It's fine if Lichun gets married, but there are still Liqiu, Lixia, Lidong in the mansion!Fang Ling also looked like that, and there was no man in the mansion who could do the job!

Just when Zhao Yuan was thinking wildly, the situation in the camp was more tense than he thought.

"Impossible!" Jia Xun's brows were cold and hard, half of the long knife drawn from his waist was drawn out, "The general's whereabouts are unknown, can the general be convicted based on the words of the former general and your family!?"

Behind him, Zhao Chen's personal guards pulled out their knives in unison, and the scene suddenly became chilling.

Yuan Chu's face was very ugly: "Lieutenant A! Do I want to convict the general? But the facts are in front of me. On the way back, I talked to the general about Ting Bo's murder case, and kindly reminded him that the monarch wanted to try the young general. Who would have thought that he would go to court?" Shooting and killing several of my subordinates, including my son was also injured, and even escaped with the little general, if it is not guilty, why did this happen!!"

Wei Hong and the others looked shocked, but they didn't quite believe it in their hearts.After a successful battle, they escorted the prisoners back to the camp, only to learn that Zhao Chen and his son had absconded in fear of crime. How could this be possible? !Just talk about Tingbo, so what if he was killed by the little general!They have made great contributions to guarding Xiguan, so why should they pay for their lives for a mere scum? !

What's more, they have been in the same robe for many years, what kind of person Zhao Chen is, if others don't know, how can they not know?

Liao Ting, the supervisor, said: "General Yuan, you are the escort of the general and his son when they come back. No matter what the reason is for them to disappear, I can't just listen to your words and draw conclusions. In my opinion, we need to send troops to look for them first. Bring it up again."

As long as no charges were mentioned, Jia Xun suppressed his anger and withdrew the knife with a clang.He stared at Yuan Chu coldly and said: "The search for the general is not a problem, I will set off overnight!" After saying that, he turned around with his people and left the tent of the Chinese army.

Yuan Chu couldn't help frowning, and said to Liao Ting: "If the general really intends to conceal the murder for Zhao Yuan, does Captain Jia, as the commander of the general's personal guard, really know nothing about it? It stands to reason that he shouldn't be asked to take someone to find him."

Wei Hong couldn't help but ask back: "Hearing General Yuan's tone, could it be that the general and his son have absconded in fear of crime! Even if Lieutenant Jia is the general's personal guard, he is still a military officer of high rank, and he is not a domestic slave. It is not Yuan's turn." The general is going on and on about accusing Lieutenant A of a crime!"

Yuan Chu seemed to get angry, but held back, and said: "Anyway, I will send someone to report this matter to the sheriff, and I will have my own opinion about this matter in the future!" He snorted coldly, and took people back to his camp .

Regardless of the people who stayed in the tent, the anger on Yuan Chu's face subsided as soon as he got out of the tent, his face was expressionless, but his brows were still frowning.He hurried back to his tent, winked to let the guards guard him, and lifted the tent to go in.I saw Yuan Jue sitting on the bed with his upper body naked and a bandage wrapped around his chest. When he saw his father coming in, he lowered his head as if he didn't see him.

Yuan Chu slammed the knife on the ground, fearing that someone would hear him, lowered his voice, gritted his teeth and said, "You are so brave!"

Yuan Jue raised his head, his face was pale, and he said indifferently: "What does father mean?"

"You still pretend to be a fool!" Yuan Chu was shaking with anger, and wanted to start, but saw the bloody bandage on his son, and couldn't do it, so he had to walk back and forth in the tent, "You...you I really don't want my life!"

He stopped suddenly, pointed at Yuan Jue and said angrily: "The king ordered them to be arrested, and you dare to let them go!? If I didn't catch them today, how could I be unreasonable!?"

Yuan Jue sneered: "Even if father catches General Zhao Yuan, will they admit to the unwarranted crime?"

"Zhao Yuan did indeed kill someone!" Yuan Chu's eyes were red, and the veins on his forehead were bruised, "Even if he didn't, the king wants them to be guilty, and no one can save them!"

Yuan Jue clenched his fists and didn't even bother to say anything.If the king hadn't promised his father something, his father would not have taken the initiative to do such a thing. Any reason is an excuse, and fame and fortune are the real thing!He dipped his feet into the dirty water, and even if Zhao Yuan was let go, the stains on his hands would not be washed away... Besides, the murder charge was just the beginning?

He lowered his head and pressed his own head, feeling a burst of remorse and guilt in his heart, and couldn't help sobbing.

Since he was a child, his father taught his son to stand upright and be loyal to the country. He let go of his grandma, put down his luxury and wealth, and went to the military camp. Could it be that he wanted to witness his father's abominable true face, and to see how he became a hypocritical and toothless villain step by step? !

Yuan Chu belongs to his beloved son, especially he only has this one son.

He vented his anger, and when he saw his son in such pain, he couldn't help but sit down.

"Son, as a father, I intend to replace it, but," he wiped his face and lamented, "the order of a king is like a knife on the neck. As a father, a father has to follow..."
