Chapter 22

After a short rest for two hours, the three of them headed north with [-] soldiers and horses. What happened one after another made them exhausted, and without good food, they were very embarrassed.

The day passed, and the night came again.

They saw the torches from a distance, worried that they would meet people from the southern border again, so they got off their horses and sent people to investigate.

During this period, they were very anxious.

Until the sent people came back and reported that Lord Xuehou and Xue Xiaohou were camping ahead.

In this way, several people are relieved.

A group of people hurriedly got on their horses and went to see Master Xue.

When Princess Gaomi saw Master Xue, she quickly waved and said happily, "Uncle!"

After dismounting from his horse, King Wu politely called out, "Uncle Xue."

Master Xue Hou looked surprised, got up and came to them, bowed and said: "I have met His Highness King Wu, Princess Gaomi."

Princess Gaomi hurriedly helped Master Xue, and said happily: "Uncle, I have met you. You don't know, I met people from the southern border last night. They are very fierce."

Master Xue frowned after hearing this, "Why don't you stay in the inner city of Ranhua, what are you doing here?"

Princess Gaomi pouted, "I'm not worried about grandpa, uncle, and my 21st brother."

"Then you can't come directly to the southern border." After Xuehou scolded, he said, "Where did you meet the people from the southern border? I have been carrying my kite to clean up the remnants of the enemy army in the rear. You shouldn't met."

After Princess Gaomi told the place, Lord Xue Hou looked at Xue Xiaohou, and said, "Zizheng, take a team with you."

"Yes! Father!" Xue Xiaohou immediately beckoned his men to get on their horses and leave.

Princess Gaomi looked at the back of Xue Xiaohou leaving, and couldn't help admiring: "Cousin is becoming more and more like a nephew and uncle."

Master Xue also looked at his son with a smile. Many of the loyalists of the Xue family were buried in the southern border. He only hoped that the war would subside soon and the children would be safe.

After they finished talking about the past, Xiao Zhiyun stepped forward to salute, "Greetings to Master Xue."

"This is..." When Master Xue Hou looked at Xiao Zhiyun, he saw the green jade plaque on her waist, and couldn't help being surprised.

After Princess Gaomi pulled Xiao Zhiyun to her side, she introduced with a smile: "This is Lord Qing's eldest sister."

Master Xue Hou nodded.

But Xiao Zhiyun asked: "May I take the liberty to ask Master Hou, where is my brother now?"

Master Xue looked back into the distance, "A few days ago, they asked me to wait to sweep the enemy army southward, and I reckoned that we would meet them if we went forward for a day or two."

Princess Gaomi also asked, "Where is my brother 21?"

Master Xue Hou replied: "Isn't His Royal Highness together with Xiao Qi?"

At this moment, Prince Zhao is indeed with Lord Qing.

However, the two of them were not idle, they were leading the soldiers to fight to the death and rush out of the encirclement.

In the dark night, a group of men in black surrounded them. Only a few soldiers were around them, and the others fought against the Tata Department in front.

They and the large army were dispersed, and when they were about to go back to find people, they encountered this group of men in black.

After several days of fighting, Prince Zhao's breath became more and more stable. He held a long sword and looked at the group of men in black.

"Look at the kung fu you use, it's not people from the southern border, but the people of our Dayao." Prince Zhao said calmly, "Now is the time for unanimity, do you really want to meet me in arms?"

Lord Qing, who was back to back with Prince Zhao, also said in a deep voice: "Just as we separated from Luo Yun, you all surrounded us. It can be seen that you have been staring at us for some time. Are you running towards me, or His Highness the Crown Prince?"

The man in black didn't speak.

Prince Zhao would not believe it if it was said that Lord Qing was killed, not to mention that Lord Qing rarely had enemies, and when Aunt Banyuan took people to the enemy before, he did not see any danger of Lord Qing.

So……

Prince Zhao couldn't help sneering, when there was an enemy's foreign aggression, he was busy killing the enemy, but someone wanted to kill him!
A whistle sounded, and the men in black slashed over with knives.

The stragglers brought by Prince Zhao and Lord Qing were quickly overthrown by the men in black, and finally only Prince Zhao and Lord Qing remained to fight.

When they were outnumbered, the two of them thought of one word at the same time, run!

Their eyes met, and they saw the answer they wanted in each other's eyes tacitly, then immediately focused on one direction, made a hole and rushed out.

But the man in black chased after him.

As soon as he saw the cliff, the man in black cut him down within a moment of hesitation.

Master Qing hurriedly hugged Prince Zhao, and after being stabbed in the back, he jumped off the cliff with Prince Zhao.

They didn't die in the battle, and they didn't want to be assassinated by their own countrymen, that would be too humiliating for them.

The two fell, and the branches of the cliffs scratched them.

In the end, one hung on a tree and the other fell into the river.

Prince Zhao cut off the branch and fell down, ignoring the injury on his body, he went to the river to fish for Lord Qing.

Master Qing was already unconscious, Prince Zhao was walking with him on his back, they couldn't wait in place, otherwise they would surely die if the man in black found them.

"Xiao Qi, wake up." Prince Zhao shook Master Qing, "If something happens to you, how can I explain it to your eldest sister?"

Master Qing snorted, but said nothing.

And Prince Zhao also gritted his teeth and carried him on his back, walking forward slowly, wondering if they could find Master Xue and Luo Guogong.

However, he must use his last ounce of strength to take Lord Qing away, not only because of Xiao Zhiyun, but also because of the friendship of fighting together.

Master Qing has saved him many times, but he has not paid back.

"Xiao Qi, think about your sister, she is waiting for you to go back." Prince Zhao talked to Lord Qing when he felt that Lord Qing's breath was weak, "Think about her, we can persevere."

At that time, after Xiao Zhiyun asked the location of Prince Zhao and Lord Qing, he set off with Wu Wang and Princess Gaomi to find them.

Master Xue Hou couldn't persuade him, so he had to send a few of his troops to follow. After all, his people had more experience in fighting than the prince and princess' personal guards.

They traveled day and night, and found Luo Guogong one day later.

Knowing that Prince Zhao and Lord Qing were missing, the three hurriedly followed to find them.

They came to the location Luo Guogong had found, where there were traces of fighting.

Xiao Zhiyun squatted on the ground watching, but Princess Gaomi pulled her up, "Don't look, let's find it together."

She didn't get up, but just stared at the blood on the ground. If Prince Zhao and her brother were injured, there was not much time left for them to search.

So, don't look for it blindly.

Recalling that when she fell from the sky, Prince Zhao found her through the wheel marks, she hurriedly looked around the marks of the fight.

Where no one was paying attention, there was a shallow mark from the sword, and she seemed to see hope.

"Quickly, don't search blindly, and don't step on blindly, look at the ground, and look for traces or blood stains left by His Royal Highness and my brother's weapons." Xiao Zhiyun instructed the soldiers who followed.

It's a pity that the traces of these surrounding areas have long been trampled away by people led by Luo Guogong.

Xiao Zhiyun was so angry that he wanted to scold others, the brothers and sisters of the Luo family were corrupt and domineering!She is also angry!

Luo Guogong felt ashamed in his heart, he always obeyed orders, or had a discussion with others, but after he got separated from Lord Qing and Prince Zhao this time, he lost his backbone.

I just looked for it in a panic, and didn't think so much.
