The emperor always wants to promise himself

Chapter 531 They Are Back
After Xiao Yu entered the city, she didn't stop there. After achieving her goal, she swaggered on in the carriage and continued on her way.

Ning Zhao opened the curtain of the carriage and looked outside. The vendors on both sides of the street are still the same as before, and the business seems to be doing well, but everyone has a sense of vicissitudes and bewilderment on their faces. When they are free, they are in a daze unconsciously. .

If you look around at random, everyone is in the same situation.

She sighed and looked away, "Although the flames of war did not spread here, the people were still affected."

Xiao Yu nodded: "It's normal. After all, natural disasters and man-made disasters cannot be prevented. No one knows whether the next battlefield will be at their doorstep, so they will worry and panic."

"But life still has to go on, so they will try to keep themselves busy, which is also a kind of escape."

"Alas." Ning Zhao sighed again: "It is the common people who suffer in war."

Xiao Yu shook his head: "The ones who suffer in war are all soldiers, throwing their heads and blood, and once they leave, they don't know if they can come back."

Ning Zhao was taken aback, and felt even more uncomfortable hearing her say that.

Sigh again and again.

The atmosphere was originally a bit heavy, but her sighs one after another were inexplicably funny.

"Okay, okay, won't we help when we come back? Don't worry about it. We haven't reached the border yet, so we can only rely on them. Worrying so much has no other effect except to increase troubles. "

Xiao Yu pushed the snacks on the small table in front of her and said, "Eat something and cheer yourself up."

"That's right." Ning Zhao pinched a piece of peach cake and put it in her mouth, her mood gradually improved.

Jun Rong was looking at the map, and kept rubbing his fingertips on it.

Xiao Yu glanced at it and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Jun Rong said, "I'm looking at the shortest way to go to Bingzhou from here."

"Have you found it?" Xiao Yu sat beside him.

Jun Rong consciously shrank to one side, making room for her. After she sat down firmly, she leaned over and pointed to a thicker line on it and said: "After leaving the city, go east, pass Yanzhou, and go west all the way. , although the road is a bit difficult and mountainous, but this is indeed the closest one."

"Let's get to Bingzhou quickly, and get rid of the Gu on your body early, so I can feel completely at ease."

"Okay, then go as you said, it doesn't matter if there are many mountain roads."

Xiao Yu took the map, called Tsing Yi from the window, and explained to him.

So after they left the city, they plunged straight into the dense forest, and the people following them couldn't find them after a while.

……

Bianguan and Bingzhou are very far apart, and they hurried to get there, but it took half a month to get there.

It was already evening when we arrived, and the soldiers guarding the city of Bingzhou hadn't stopped people to ask questions, but when they saw Xiao Yu's face, they suddenly froze, "Wang, lord?!"

Yu Chen immediately touched the knife at his waist warily, Xiao Yu put his hand on his shoulder, raised his head and asked the soldier, "Do you recognize me?"

"Of course! The prince is the benefactor of our family, how could I not recognize it?!"

The more the soldiers talked, the more excited they became, and the tall man's eyes turned red.

Xiao Yu blinked, feeling a little dazed.

Jun Rong and her looked at each other, and said softly: "Speak slowly if you have something to say, don't get excited."

"The last general... It's hard not to be excited..." He sniffed, knelt down towards Xiao Yu and said, "The prince doesn't know the general, but the general does, and the general's sister is the prince The one who was rescued, if the prince hadn't gone there in time, the last general's younger sister would have been ruined by those beasts!"

A light flashed in Xiao Yu's mind, "You mean when I first came to Bingzhou?"

Jun Rong also remembered that he was not there that time, but he heard from the Taifu that he saved a girl from the top of the mountain.

"Yes, although three and a half years have passed, the general will always remember the great kindness of the prince in his heart."

The general wiped his face, "I never had a chance before, but now that I have seen the prince, I would like to invite the prince to be respected by the last general!"

He kowtowed three times to Xiao Yu in front of other soldiers.

Xiao Yu hurriedly got off the carriage and gave him a hand: "What happened back then was nothing more than my effort, you don't have to."

"The general knows that this matter is a matter of convenience for the prince, but for the future, it is for the future to recreate the same kindness, so this bow is the general's willingness."

Seeing his sincerity, Xiao Yu's heart warmed up, "Okay, I'll take it, how is your sister doing now?"

"Sister She is married now, the husband and wife are loving, the piano is harmonious, and she has been thinking about the opportunity to thank the prince face to face."

The general stood up and smiled a little honestly.

"Okay, I will live in Bingzhou for the time being, what's your name, if there is a chance, I would like to meet your sister."

"The last general, He Zhiyuan."

"I got it."

Xiao Yu nodded and asked again: "Is your Lord Inspector there?"

"Here, ah——" He Zhiyuan patted his head, his face flushed slightly: "The general lost his composure, and dragged the prince here for a long time, please——"

"It's okay, I have nothing to worry about."

"Your Excellency didn't go out in the mansion, will you send the prince there at the end?"

Seeing his enthusiasm, Xiao Yu didn't refuse, and let him lead the way.

A group of people entered Bingzhou City smoothly.

Zhen Qingping was sitting in the study room staring at a camellia outside the window in a daze.

"Why don't you draw anymore, my lord?" Shutong couldn't help asking when he saw Zhen Qingping's half-painted landscape painting.

"Hmm..." Zhen Qingping pressed his pen between his brows and said, "For some reason, my eyelids kept twitching when I woke up this morning, which made me restless, and I always felt that something was going to happen. "

"So that's how it is. Painting requires concentration and carefulness. It's not good to draw if you are impatient. You might as well drink tea and take a rest, and then paint when you relax?"

As he spoke, he brought a cup of freshly brewed tea and handed it over.

Zhen Qingping thought so, so he picked up the scroll and put it in a wide-mouth bottle on the side.

However, just as he reached out to take the teacup, Uncle Li suddenly ran and shouted: "My lord! My lord! Great joy! Your lord and the others are back!"

Zhen Qing paused, and before he could catch it, he suddenly froze, and the teacup just fell off with force and fell straight down.

The bookboy reacted quickly and dodged first.

Zhen Qingping was covered by a desk, but he didn't get burned.

"Uncle Li? What did you say?"

"Are you alright, my lord?" The book boy asked with concern.

Zhen Qingping didn't care about answering, just waved his hand at him, and walked to the door with big strides, when he pushed the door and came out, he happened to see Uncle Li running to the steps panting.

"Uncle Li, what did you just say? Say it again? Who's back?"

Uncle Li supported his knees, pointed to the direction behind him with a trembling hand and said, "My lord... Your Majesty, all, all are back!"

Zhen Qingping couldn't hear what he said behind him, so he strode down the steps and ran out.
