Views:

He looked over and saw, sure enough, a man was shooting arrows on the teaching field in front of him.

The figure had its back to him, dressed in fine clothing, holding a bow and arrow. He thought, what's so great about this? However, after taking a few more glances, I suddenly realized that the figure from behind was so petite and very familiar.

At this time, many people were coming to the training ground one after another. They were all particularly diligent soldiers who wanted to stand out on the battlefield, so they worked harder.

King Qin's heart moved, and he followed them to the teaching ground. Because the team had already been withdrawn, the team leader didn't pay much attention. He only yelled a few words loudly, saying that he had to go back on time for breakfast, otherwise he wouldn't have anything to eat. He left. King Qin was overjoyed, quickened his pace, and walked to a poplar tree in front of him. He just stopped when he heard another "swish" sound. The man holding the bow turned around and shot an arrow. The bullseye on the middle school field. Her shooting method was almost equivalent to shooting while masked. King Qin secretly praised: What a shot that can pierce the Yang with a hundred steps.

The archer seemed to be very satisfied with his results and put down his bow and arrow. At the same time, King Qin had completely seen most of the side face, which was as white as jade, with a row of long eyelashes covering his eyes. Because of his concentration, like a statue.

His heart seemed to have rolled out of his chest, and he almost blurted out: "Girl..."

However, he immediately held back, because a man with a spear in his hand strode over from the flank. He had obviously just done morning exercise, and there was sweat on his forehead.

The man has broad shoulders and a slim waist, tall and strong, and his whole body is full of the irrepressible vitality of a young man. Only between his eyebrows and eyes, he faintly reveals a perseverance and prudentness that is rare for young people.

Then, when King Qin saw the woman shooting the arrow, he turned around slightly. This time, he finally saw her face clearly. Her brows were full, and there was a healthy blush on her face. Her slim figure no longer looked like the young and hairy girl she used to be. Instead, she is a mature and charming woman, exuding a soul-stirring brilliance, like a night pearl that has just been taken out of the box, warm and fragrant.

Girl, girl!

King Qin felt a "thud" in his heart, as if someone suddenly threw a stone in, causing a thousand ripples. His throat felt dry, his heart felt sad, and he was filled with endless ecstasy: Girl, not only is she still alive, Moreover, she is even more beautiful than before. She is no longer the timid, weak and fragile little girl.

As soon as he took his legs out, he would automatically run over to her, hug her, take her home, and love her deeply. This was the wife he had worshiped in heaven and earth, and had spent all his time in the bridal chamber.

He had just walked a few steps when a man stood in front of him and said angrily: "Qin San, I've been looking for you for a long time, go and train quickly..."

When he saw that it was Li Duo, the guard he bribed, he immediately realized what was wrong, stopped moving forward, and whispered: "What's wrong?"

Li Duo looked around and lowered his voice: "Something happened, get out of here quickly..."

King Qin was so anxious that he weighed for a moment that if he rushed out at this moment, he must be trying to scare off the enemy. He had seen Yue Pengju's bravery with his own eyes, and it was the ninth prince's camp with tens of thousands of troops. If he failed this time, he would never have the chance to lead the army again. It was a happy ending. He calmed down and immediately followed Li Duo. As he walked, he heard Yue Pengju's voice: "Sister..."

Then, there was Hua Rong's soft voice, gentle and kind: "Pengju..."

He couldn't help but turn around, and saw Hua Rong talking to Yue Pengju face to face, with the undisguised tenderness on his face and eyes, as if he were on an island. Yue Pengju stretched out his hand and flicked it, as if gently Brushing a fallen leaf from her hair, the two of them behaved extremely intimately...

At this moment, he realized so clearly that Yue Pengju's relationship with his "sister" was by no means an ordinary brother-sister relationship. The young boy on the island had turned into a grown man. Hua Rong stood in front of him. , a whole head shorter, and looks more like his sister.

Looking at the two of them again, they are a perfect match for each other. This thought, like a poisonous centipede, wormed its way into my heart. I was sour and jealous, and gnashed my teeth with hatred: Brat, I should have killed you when we were on the island.

He didn't want to leave just like that, so he hurriedly said: "Li Duo, what happened?"

"An assassin has sneaked into the camp..."

"oh?"

He was startled when he heard a few voices coming from the left, center and right directions, and then a series of footsteps as guards in armor ran towards the camp.

A guard saw Li Duo and immediately ran up: "Master Li..."

"Quick, everyone go and protect the prince."

"yes."

Everyone turned around and headed in one direction. King Qin suddenly thought, isn't this chaotic moment a good opportunity sent by God? He immediately changed direction and ran towards the field where Hua Rong was shooting arrows just now...

Hua Rong and Yue Pengju had also heard the chaotic sounds. Yue Pengju said "no" and pulled Hua Rong: "Sister, follow me..."

"Okay, go and see the Ninth Prince. No, there is no need to go to the camp. The Ninth Prince is not there every morning. He does morning exercises in another place..."

"OK."

The two siblings ran forward in a hurry. In the chaos, King Qin followed them from a distance, but when they saw the slim figure in front of them, they were as vigorous as a running deer, and their hearts were beating like bells and drums.

Hua Rong and Yue Pengju didn't even know that they were being targeted. They just hurriedly ran to a corner of the school ground. On the way, they heard a "swish" sound and several hidden weapons were struck at the people coming in front. Yue Pengju reacted very quickly. He flew forward and swung his spear across the area, swinging it so that no water could splash in. He only heard a few clinks as the hidden weapon fell to the ground. He turned the gun and threw it, only to hear a low scream coming from the woods next to him.

Several guards rushed over and found a man in tight black clothes lying on the ground. He was already dead. Looking at his face, he was the golden man.

It was the Ninth Prince who was attacked. Behind him were several guards. Everyone looked hasty. It was obvious that there were many assassins sneaking in. Fortunately, the guard army had arrived, and everyone was relieved.

Yue Peng bowed and saluted: "Savior is late, please make atonement for your sins."

The Ninth Prince said in a deep voice: "This is not the place to talk. You come with me."

Everyone escorted the Ninth Prince into the camp of the Marshal's Mansion. The Ninth Prince sat down and took a sip of tea to soothe his shock. Xu Caizhi hurried in from the door: "Report to the Prince, another assassin was captured, two people died, and the rest They have all escaped, and they are all Jin Kingdom assassins..."

Immediately afterwards, another soldier rushed in, covered with wounds, and handed over a secret letter: "Your Majesty, urgent military information..." As soon as he finished speaking, he almost collapsed to the ground.

The Ninth Prince immediately ordered someone to take him down for treatment, and opened the fire paint seal. When he saw it, his complexion changed drastically, and he stood up quickly.

Hua Rong had never seen such a panic look on his face before, and the others did not dare to say anything. After a while, the Ninth Prince gave the order: "Yue Pengju, you lead the troops and set off immediately, without delay..."

"As commanded."

The Ninth Prince was dispatching troops and generals on the side. Everyone already understood that the Jin Kingdom had already attacked the capital. Now the whole court was talking about peace talks, without any effective resistance. As a result, the Jin army came unimpeded. Currently, they are already stationed in Fifty miles outside the capital, everyone surrounded the capital.

The imperial court immediately sent peace envoys, and the Jin army set a sky-high price and demanded that the imperial court pay, otherwise they would send troops into the city.

The generals followed the order and left. Yue Pengju looked at Hua Rong. He was originally going to take his sister with him, but something unexpected happened. A soldier's bounden duty is to obey orders and he did not dare to delay even a moment. He was frightened and anxious, Hua Rong knew In his mind, the situation is so critical now, how can he dare to delay for a moment? He immediately said: "Pengju, set off quickly, don't worry about anything..."

Only then did the Ninth Prince remember that the siblings did not even have time to say goodbye, and said: "Pengju, don't worry, I will take good care of your sister..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

When the time came, Yue Pengju saw a flash in his sister's eyes, and his sister and brother had the same mind. He immediately understood what she meant, did not dare to stay any longer, and strode out in a hurry.

Nuo Da's handsome mansion instantly became empty.

The Ninth Prince sent his men back, and Hua Rong knew that he must have something important to say, so he stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, Hua Rong is willing to do the hard work of the dogs and horses."

"This trip is too dangerous, you are not suitable..."

"Your Majesty, raising an army for a thousand days and using it for a while, Hua Rong came to seek refuge with you, not just to live under your wings. Although Hua Rong has little ability, he still hopes to do his best to repay the prince in case..."

Seeing her resolute attitude, the Ninth Prince thought about it. Hua Rong was cautious and very capable, and for this matter, he must be a close confidant. After careful consideration, he found that there was no more suitable candidate than her. He He lowered his voice: "The capital is in danger and will not be saved. If the nest is overturned, how can the eggs be intact? But please save my father, the emperor, mother and concubine, and even a drop of blood..."

Hua Rong is such a smart person. He has already known that the Ninth Prince is not valued by the emperor. Among all the princes, he is the only one sent to the battlefield. The so-called "father, emperor, mother and concubine" naturally have people to protect them. Only the Ninth Prince has a family, and the princess and the The two concubines, one son and five daughters had no one to take care of them. Faced with a catastrophe, what the Ninth Prince wanted most was to keep his sons.

"Your Majesty, if you can trust Hua Rong, Hua Rong will set off immediately and sneak into the capital. He will do his best to bring the princess, mother and son out safely..."

"Okay, I will select 50 good players for you, and Xu Caizhi will cooperate with you."

"Your Majesty, Xu Caizhi has been with you for a long time. Now is the time to employ people. Your safety is more important."

"Xu Caizhi is familiar with the situation in the capital. You two are the people I trust the most. I will leave this matter to you."

"As ordered, Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."

"Don't worry, I still don't take any of the Jin Kingdom assassins seriously. Now the commander's office has stepped up patrols. You just need to be more careful along the way and make sure you don't make any mistakes..."

"As commanded."

The Ninth Prince gave her secret instructions and gave her a detailed map of the palace. Hua Rong kept the key points in mind and took the map. Just as she was about to leave, the Ninth Prince stopped her again: "This trip is full of difficulties and dangers, so you should take more care." , if there is nothing you can do, I just want to save the little prince... "

The capital is in crisis, and the royal bloodline must be more important than anything else. Hua Rong solemnly said: "Follow your orders."

The Ninth Prince looked very tired and sat on the big chair, looking very haggard. Hua Rong knew that he had more important things to consider, so he left without asking any more questions and immediately left, ran to his room, tidied up a little, and changed Dressed in fine attire, he held his bow and arrows. When he came out, Xu Caizhi and his men were already waiting at the door. They got on their horses and galloped away.
