The children are also back. Sitting up and looking around, it seemed that he was in a cave.

"How long have I been sleeping?" Ming Yu asked, her voice hoarse.

"It's been one day and one night." Xie Yixiu noticed his strangeness, brought him some water, and gave him some to drink, and Ming Yu felt much better.

"Thank you!" Ming Yu whispered.

Xie Yixiu was taken aback, he had never seen Ming Yu lose his temper before, the Ming Yu he saw was all flamboyant and at ease, exuding vitality from inside to outside, and getting along with people felt particularly comfortable, with Feel like spring breeze. Instead of being so lost and cautious now, it doesn't seem like him anymore.

"You don't need to thank me!" Xie Yixiu said softly, "Protecting the prince well is what I should do."

At this moment, he suddenly realized that no matter what, he had to protect this young man, not because of his identity, but because of the ripples he had accidentally left in his heart.

Ming Yu nodded, his identity must not be compromised, if he really fell into the enemy's hands, not only the officials and people in Liangzhou, but even the entire Dayan court would be shamed.

"Understood, such things will never happen again in the future, even if it is for the country and the people, we must keep this useful body and never fall into danger lightly." Ming Yu pursed her lips and said in a low voice.

Seeing that Ming Yu almost misinterpreted his meaning, Xie Yixiu opened his mouth, but finally swallowed the words in his heart. It's good to just guard silently like this, there is no need to let him be troubled.

"My lord should know that your status is not like that of an ordinary person. As a lord, you are concerned with the country and society, so..." Xie Yixiu glanced at Ming Yu, saw him nodding obediently, but couldn't continue.

He changed the subject, "My lord couldn't move or speak before, but what's the reason?"

Mingming nodded with lingering fear, that feeling was really uncomfortable, as if a ghost was pressing the bed. Being able to see and hear means being unable to move, unable to speak, being trapped between square inches.

"I don't know what kind of medicine it is. It will be like this for a few hours after drinking it. I can only move freely after the effect of the medicine wears off." Ming Yu recalled.

After Xie Yixiu listened to his description. He frowned and thought for a while. Then he said: "In Suixi Kingdom, there is a plant called Achnatherum splendens. Even cattle and sheep will be paralyzed if they eat it. What the prince is talking about should be the medicinal juice extracted from this plant." After speaking, he looked Ming Yu up and down again. "How does the prince feel now? Is there any discomfort in the body?"

Ming Yu felt the condition of his body, except that he was a little hungry, there was no other change. He told Xie Yixiu the truth, and Xie Yixiu checked him several times to make sure that Ming Yu's body was fine, so he was really relieved.

"I grilled the fish and it's simmering on the fire at the moment. The prince doesn't dislike it, so just eat some?"

As soon as he heard that there was food, Ming Yu's eyes lit up, he nodded repeatedly, got up and sat by the fire, then looked at Xie Yixiu eagerly.

Xie Yixiu saw that his bright eyes looked like some kind of small animal, so he couldn't help curling his lips slightly, it was too rare for Ming Yu who was waiting to be fed like this.

He walked over, sat down side by side with Ming Yu, set the fish on the wooden rack on fire and roasted it, and then handed it to Ming Yu.

Ming Yu took it, and a fragrant smell came directly, and he didn't care whether the temperature was right or not, he just tore off a piece and threw it into his mouth, it was so hot that he exhaled.

"My lord, be careful." Xie Yixiu reminded.

"It's no better than being in Dayan outside now, so I don't need to be called a prince, just call me Ming Yu or Xiao Shisi." Ming Yu said vaguely, and then he added, "My father and brother are like this. Call me."

There are many inconveniences when going out. If it is not good to expose your identity because of the address, it is better to change your words earlier to avoid showing flaws. Moreover, the two of them depended on each other for their lives in the tiger's den, and if they still practiced politeness, they would not be exhausted all day long, like him, he never had the airs of a prince in front of those close to him.

Ming Yu, Ming Yu, these two words were repeated in Xie Yixiu's mouth several times, but Xie Yixiu still didn't call out, and only said kindly: "Okay."

Ming Yu was happy, he didn't care so much, he smelled the aroma of food and his stomach started screaming uncontrollably, the first priority now is to fill his stomach first. I have to say that Xie Yixiu's skill in grilling fish is really nothing to say, the skin is so tender, and the fish is so juicy and juicy that he almost swallowed it with his tongue.

I thought it was impossible to cook food with cold ice cubes, but unexpectedly, this skill is really not covered. In Ming Yu's view, men who can cook are really rare in today's society. As soon as he raised his head, he saw Xie Yixiu, who was too late to look away, raising the fish in his hand, "Aren't you going to eat it?"

Xie Yixiu shook his head, "Chen... uh! I've already eaten."

Ming Yu let out an "oh", withdrew his hand, and exclaimed: "General Xie... Yixiu, this craftsmanship is too good. If any girl marries you, she will have endless blessings."

Xie Yixiu smiled wryly, he couldn't deceive himself and others with that little thought in his heart, let's go and harm the girl. Ever since the first time he met him, he had never thought that there would be any great intersection. A prince from the capital has nothing to do with him, right? Later, after getting to know him a few times, I got to know his gentle and tolerant temperament and many unique insights, which let people know his infinite talent. How can such a person not attract the attention of others

As long as he guards his territory and this person well, it is the grace bestowed on him by God.

Xie Yixiu didn't speak, the air was quiet for a while, and Ming Yu realized something was wrong when he said it jokingly. Did General Xie dare to make jokes casually

He laughed a few times to ease the embarrassment. "For a general like you, there are people who do these things, and it doesn't look like someone who can do these small things."

Xie Yixiu also noticed it naturally, "When I was young, my family suffered accidents, so I was able to do these things by myself at a very young age."

Ming Yu was amazed, he really didn't know Xie Yixiu's past, he only knew that he became famous in the first battle and became a respected figure among the people of Dayan.

Originally, I wanted to hear what he had to say, but Xie Yixiu obviously didn't want to talk about it, so he changed the subject and asked, "Why did you choose to go deep into the hinterland and then go north?"

Ming Yu licked the juice from his fingers. He smiled and said, "Do you understand the roundabout route? The enemy army has already blocked our escape route. Do we have to fight hard to die? Go around in a circle. Although the distance is far away, at least we have a chance to escape, right? "

Xie Yixiu stared at him with no expression on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Even if there was no expression on his face, Ming Yu knew that he didn't believe what he said. He sighed, talking to wise people gave him a headache, so he said: "That's all! Let me tell you, can't I say it?"

He had already finished eating one fish, and he stretched out his hand to take another fish handed over by Xie Yixiu, and then said slowly: "Actually, I want to go there to see, I didn't have the chance before, but now I happen to come out and I can't go back for the time being." , I just wanted to go and have a look."

What is there to see there? Desolate. There was doubt in Xie Yixiu's eyes, he knew that Ming Yu would never have such an idea for no reason. Being able to think of going to the north at this time, presumably this idea has always been in his mind.

Xie Yixiu obviously disapproved. As a prince, he always thinks about taking risks. It's wrong to have such thoughts.

Ming Yu explained with a smile: "This is the current situation, this idea was turned out. In the past, I never dared to go in person. I used to think that when the guard battalion could really stand alone, I would send A small group of people went to have a look. If this is the case, it may not be possible within a year or two."

Hearing what he said, Xie Yixiu started thinking instead, is there anything special about the Xiqi Mountains between Suixi Kingdom and Wuliang Kingdom? Otherwise, why would Ming Yu miss it so much.

"Xiqi Mountain? Why?" Xie Yixiu was puzzled.

"Because I want to see if there can really be a way to reach the sky." Ming Yu tore off a piece of fish and threw it into his mouth. He didn't notice any shocking words in his words.

"Tongtian Dao?" Xie Yixiu looked at Ming Yu's calm face, did he mean what he thought

"Yeah, the Tongtian Avenue may not be suitable, a corridor leading to the Western Regions..." Ming Yu turned his head and thought for a while, "Well, it is a corridor, the terrain over there has a long and narrow plain, and the Xiqi Mountains block the north. The windy and sandy desert, the Xiqi River has a long source and stream, which nourishes that oasis. What's more, this narrow and long plain leads to Xihuang and other places in the Western Regions. As long as we win that place, our caravans don't have to go far Road, increase the relative cost, let alone be restricted by the Suixi Kingdom."

Xie Yixiu stood up abruptly, turned around a few times, thinking of more and further, if what Zhaomingyu said, if their Dayan Kingdom can restrict this corridor, it is not a military important place. If you advance, you can attack the rear of Suixi Kingdom, and if you retreat, you can defend the gate of Dayan Kingdom. Perhaps in the future, the situation in Dayan Kingdom will change because of this.

They didn't know about that place before. They only knew that the Xiqi Mountains were separated between the Suixi Kingdom and the Wuliang Kingdom. Cannot graze. Therefore this piece
