Prime Minister take care

Chapter 456 Backtracking
The army lined up and advanced slowly.

Huan Qing was riding a horse and waiting among the Chinese army formations.With the foot power of these [-] Northern troops, it can be reached in three or four hours on a hundred-mile road.

It's just that Huan Qing is cautious and doesn't completely trust Chang Yu.

In other words, Huan Qing didn't let go of the eagle until he saw the rabbit. He wouldn't use all his strength until he defeated the six thousand eagles.

"Where is the front?"

"Bo Lingpo! After that, there is a gravel plateau for another twenty miles."

Huan Zhong followed Huan Qing and said.

Huan's two generals are now following Huan Qing.Huan Qing had no military knowledge, but these two generals had the leadership of this battle.

"It's getting late, hurry up and pass Bolingpo."

"Yes!"

In the darkness, two pairs of eyes were staring at the hundreds of thousands of Liang troops passing by.

"Liang Jun didn't take precautions. Huan Qing seems to have fallen into the trap."

"It doesn't matter even if he doesn't fall into the trap. It doesn't matter who loses the [-] Northern Army and Yingyang Army. It's best to lose both sides. But that old guy Tong Gu is really scary. The people who were in Shangguan at that time At that time, I wanted to get closer to observe the movements of Ying Yang's army, but he shot an arrow through my arm."

The shadow touched the wound on his arm, feeling lingering fear.He knew that Tong Gu's arrow was only intended to be a deterrent, not to take his life.

Tong Gu knows very well that a living example is more convincing than a corpse.

"You are lucky, kid. Although the Yingyang Army only has six thousand soldiers, basically every soldier has tamed the wild beast Fire Thorn Eagle. They are very good at reconnaissance and concealment. Tong Gu is a great master in the army. , it’s too late for others to hide, but you are the only one who dares to be so bold.”

There was a low laugh from the person next to him.Because they knew how powerful Tong Gu was, they did not dare to investigate nearby this time, for fear that Ying Yangjun would discover something unusual.

"According to the time, Liang Jun's front army is almost at Bolingpo. When the fighting starts, we will immediately send intelligence to Guanzhong."

Two spies were waiting in the dark night.However, they had been waiting for a long time, but the unexpected sound of fighting had not yet sounded.

"What's going on? Counting the time, Liang Jun's main force should have already arrived at Bolingpo."

"Could it be Huan Qing's mother-in-law and Liang Jun walking slowly?"

"Wait then?"

As time passed, the two spies finally felt that something was wrong.

"Even if Huan Qing is a mother-in-law, it's time for a fight. Let's go!"

The two spies quickly descended the hillside and passed through the muddy mountain road. When they arrived at Bolingpo, they saw empty horse hoof prints and ruts on the ground.

"Ying Yangjun is not here?"

"Then where are they?"

The two spies each asked each other a question, but all they received were confused faces.An eagle's cry from the sky alerted the two spies from their doubts.

"It's the Firethorn Eagle, hurry up!"

In the dark night, two feather arrows shot through the sky.The two spies were submerged under the moonlit night without making a sound.

The palace's side pavilion.

With the faint lights flickering, Meng Qing sat on the dusty stone bricks with a mat spread out.

Along with the noisy sounds outside, Meng Qing's thoughts were a little confused.Although Xia Jieshu discovered his purpose, his subordinates' attitude towards him could not be said to be bad.On the contrary, I still tried to take care of him as much as possible. Although the conditions were simple, I lit a candle for him so that he would not stare in the dark.

Something is not right.

It had been some time since the Xiliang cavalry arrived, and Lingchuan's voice could be faintly heard in the side pavilion where Meng Qing was.

If Chang Yu had reached a deal with the Xia family and the Huan family to attack Zhou Jun generals and Yang Xian tonight, then it had undoubtedly failed.

The five cavalry troops are all from Liangzhou, and they will only be loyal to Yang Xian.Their arrival means that Yang Xian has insight into Chang Yu and others' plans.

Although Xia Jieshu was General Huben, he could only blockade the palace for a while.If Yang Xian and the Zhou army generals in the palace cannot be dealt with as soon as possible, he will not be able to stop the five cavalry troops and the rest of the forbidden army who know the truth.

In this way, the two armies of Zhe Chong and Chang Ce may have entered Haojing, and the Chang family and people related to the Chang family should have been detained.

If Chang Yu was just pretending to hang out with Xia and others, the purpose was to lure these people out for Yang Xian and then annihilate them in one fell swoop.So by now, the Forbidden Army and Chang's people outside should have arrived long ago.

No matter what, it was so quiet outside, unusually quiet.Ever since the five cavalry troops entered the palace and eliminated Xia Jieshu's gang, there has been no movement outside.

No matter what kind of plan Chang Yu is making, he should be affected by it.But now no one cares about this side pavilion, as if the whole world has forgotten it.

With a creak, the door to the side pavilion was slowly opened.Meng Qing raised his head, and to his surprise, the person who came was an old man he didn't recognize.

"who are you?"

"Lou Jing!"

"The Netherworld Lord!"

Lou Jing smiled, a bit teasingly.

"I haven't heard anyone call me that for a long time."

Meng Qing had speculated on several possibilities, but he never thought that the first person he would see in the end would be Lou Jing.

"follow me!"

After Lou Jing left these words, he turned around and walked out of the somewhat dull room.Meng Qing did not ask why, because he was not qualified to ask at this moment.He understood that the best response was to follow Lou Jing.

It was very quiet on both sides of the foreign minister's road in the side pavilion. There was a group of soldiers stationed there. They were tall and thick-haired. From the look of their faces, they were soldiers from Liangzhou.They stood guard in the aisle without saying a word.

Lou Jing is very tall. Although he is old, he looks like a man in his 30s. His strong body is hidden under a robe and looks very elegant.

Lou Jing came and went freely, it seemed that the Liangzhou soldiers didn't see him and Meng Qing.What made Meng Qing strange was that the direction Lou Jing led was not to the palace, the core of tonight's matter, but to the outside.That is the direction away from the palace.

He wants to take me out of the palace?

why?
Meng Qing's thoughts were soon confirmed, Lou Jing was indeed leading him to leave the palace.What puzzled him was why Lou Jing took him away from the palace.

Before approaching the palace gate, Meng Qing looked back at the direction of the palace where the banquet was being held.Meng Qing could not see anything clearly due to the heavy palace walls.However, there were more and more doubts in his heart.

Who is the person who wants to see him?

"Marquis Guiyi, get in the car!"

A carriage stopped in front of the palace, and there was no one around it.Meng Qing did not refuse and sat on it, while Lou Jing became the driver.

With a whip, the carriage slowly drove away from the palace and ran down the silent street.
