marry a princess

Chapter 167
Zhaoxia Peak.

Surrounded by mountains on all sides, winding and rugged, the century-old pines and cypresses stand on the top of the mountain, vigorous and tall, dense and lush, as if reaching the clouds.The rocks on the ground are rugged, but they look like tigers of different shapes, either sitting, standing, or lying on their sides.

The morning sun poured down, covering Zhaoxia Peak completely. It was radiant and full of vitality. The wind picked up the fallen leaves on the ground, whirled and flew, and then fell, but the silence of Zhaoxia Peak at this time was a little weirder. There is more depression in the tranquility.

Dozens of soldiers in armor stood side by side on the edge of the cliff, with their hands folded to their mouths, stretching their necks and shouting loudly towards the bottom of the cliff, all of them looked dignified.

"General, your injury..." Sang Ming grabbed Yuan Hongjin, looked at his left arm with a worried face, suddenly knelt down, and said seriously, "I will bring my brothers here to continue looking for five The whereabouts of the prince, please return quickly for treatment."

"A little injury, it's fine." Saying that, Yuan Hongjin walked towards the edge of the cliff while supporting his left arm.Seeing Sang Ming turning around in front of him, he couldn't help frowning, "Sang Ming, what are you doing?"

"Sang Ming, general, please return to the barracks quickly." Although the wound was not poisonous, the sword pierced extremely deeply. It is still unknown whether any bones were injured. In order to find the whereabouts of the fifth prince, the general refused to return to the camp stubbornly. Knowing that the general and the fifth prince have a deep brotherhood, they had no choice but to let the general stay.Now that one night has passed, they still haven't found the fifth prince, but he can't let the general wait here any longer.

The frown deepened a little, Yuan Hongjin glanced at Sang Mian displeasedly, and looked up to the edge of the cliff.The fifth elder brother fell off a cliff to save him. Now that the fifth elder brother's whereabouts are unknown, how can he go back to the military camp alone to heal his wounds with peace of mind?

Seeing Yuan Hongjin frowning for a long time while looking at the edge of the cliff, Sang Ming looked at him and said word by word, "Tianxu Kingdom is staring at it. We started last night to find the whereabouts of the Fifth Prince and stayed all night. The army cannot be without a general for a day." , General, please return to the barracks quickly, and the subordinates and Tao Yu will personally lead the brothers to find the whereabouts of the Fifth Prince."

"General Sang's words are very true. General, please return to the barracks quickly." Hearing this, Tao Yu, who was standing on the edge of the cliff, came over a few steps, and knelt down in front of Yuan Hongjin with Sang Ming.

Yuan Hongjin withdrew his gaze and looked at Sang Mian and Tao Yu with a frown. He and the fifth brother were in love with each other. How could they not be brothers and sisters?What Sang Ming said was right, the army cannot be without generals for a day, if he let others take advantage of him because he was looking for Fifth Brother, he would not only feel sorry for Fifth Brother, but even more sorry for all the brothers who swore to follow him to the death.

"Sixth brother, you go back." Yuan Hongjie came over and glanced at his arm with concern, "I will find the whereabouts of fifth brother here with General Sang and General Tao, besides, your injury also needs to be healed. Brother Wu has always loved you, if he comes back and finds out that you refused to treat your wounds because of him, he will definitely blame himself."

Yuan Hongjin turned his head to look at Yuan Hongjie, grasped the left hand hanging by his side, pulling the wound on his hand, his eyes flashed with pain.

"drive!"

With a shout, the sound of horseshoes came from far to near, and everyone looked there one after another.Because she was running with the backlight, it was impossible to see her appearance clearly, only the scolding and scolding could be heard endlessly.When he got close, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in astonishment when he saw the woman on the horse.

The woman on the horse was indeed Bai Ziwan. She was dressed in white, her eyebrows were tightly frowned, her face was serious, her eyes were fixed on the front, she kept raising the whip in her hand and whipping the horse's buttocks. The man is far behind.

She can ride a horse!Yuan Hongjie stared closely at Bai Ziwan who rode the horse, his eyes flashed with surprise, he casually returned to normal, raised his lips, and smiled meaningfully.

"Sister-in-law?!" Yuan Hongjin hastily greeted him with a few steps, bowed his head and said, "Sister-in-law, Hongjin is sorry for you, fifth brother..."

Bai Ziwan got off the horse neatly, and walked up to Yuan Hongjin, "Liu Liu, have you found Hongyi's whereabouts?"

Yuan Hongjin shook his head, not daring to look into her eyes.Bai Ziwan was stunned for a moment, pushed Yuan Hongjin away, walked to the edge of the cliff in three steps, and stretched his head to have a look.Surrounded by smog, you can't even see the surroundings of the cliff, let alone the bottom.

With pain in his heart, Bai Ziwan closed his eyes abruptly, and opened them again after the pain subsided a bit, turned around and walked up to Yuan Hongjin, "Sixth, what's going on? Aren't you in the barracks? Why did you come here?" How did Hongyi fall off the cliff?"

Yuan Hongjin's eyes were pained, and he said with difficulty, "Fifth brother was taken advantage of by that man and knocked off the cliff to save me."

that person?Bai Ziwan's eyes twitched, "Who is that person? Hong Jin, you are not a person who hesitates to talk, what's going on now? Tell me what's going on?" Shi Chen, the military camp is even more so, how could they come here?
Yuan Hongjie's sudden arrival here was exactly as she had guessed, not only for the simple purpose of letting Yuan Hongyu return to the capital, but he also brought another imperial decree, asking Yuan Hongyi and Yuan Hongjin brothers to immediately raise troops and dispatch troops in half a month. Attack Tianxu Kingdom.

Last night, the three brothers Yuan Hongyi, Yuan Hongjin, and Yuan Hongjie together with Sang Ming, Tao Yu and other lieutenants discussed the matter of attacking Tianxu Kingdom in the tent.Suddenly, there was a burst of shouting outside the tent, and it was only after they went out that the granary was on fire. Before they could react, dozens of masked men in black fell from the sky, killing and injuring countless soldiers, including Yuan Hongjie.

Yuan Hongyi chased the man in black all the way to Zhaoxia Peak.Yuan Hongjin was worried that Yuan Hongyi would be outnumbered, so he ordered Lin Bin to stay behind to guard the lieutenant, and chased after him with Tao Yu and Sang Ming.Here again, there was a vicious fight with the man in black.Seeing that the man in black was gradually losing ground, at this moment, an arrow came from nowhere and shot at Yuan Hongjin. Seeing this, Yuan Hongyi pushed him away, but was stolen by the man in black. Opened a gap, hit the cliff...

Bai Ziwan looked at Yuan Hongjie nonchalantly, his smile was like a spring breeze, but she felt an inexplicable chill in her heart.

"Sister-in-law, it's the sixth brother who's sorry for you. If it wasn't for me, the fifth brother wouldn't..." Yuan Hongjin's voice was choked with tears in his eyes.

"You said just now that you searched here all night, but there is still no news?" Bai Ziwan interrupted him, feeling uneasy.

Yuan Hongjin answered yes, then turned his head to the side guiltily.

Bai Ziwan nodded unconsciously, walked to the edge of the cliff without saying a word and stood there, quietly looking at the bottom of the cliff for a long time, then turned around and asked, "Have you sent someone to look down?"

"Under the cliff?"

Judging by their appearance, I'm afraid no one was sent to Xuandi to see them.Bai Ziwan said, "Although it looks deep here, we don't know how deep it is..."

"The fifth prince concubine means to go to the bottom of the cliff to look for the fifth prince?" Tao Yu said suddenly, frowning, "Under Zhaoxia Peak is an abyss." This is what they dare not send people down to look for reason.

His words were like a basin of cold water, extinguishing her newly ignited hope.Below the abyss, then he... no, he won't!He was still hugging her the night before, and whispered in her ear that he would protect her for the rest of his life, and never let her suffer any more grievances.

Bai Ziwan shook her head unconsciously, her heart ached, her eyes were blurred, she hadn't recovered from the pain of losing her child, now, would she have to bear the pain of losing him again?She had already lost her lover once, how could she lose her lover again?No!Will not!God would not be so cruel to her!He must be alive!Must be alive!

The sun, which was hanging high in the sky just now, has been covered by thick dark clouds at the moment. Looking around, there is a haze everywhere. Even more empty.

Yuan Hongjin walked to the edge of the cliff, looked at the bottomless cliff, and at Bai Ziwan, who was silently looking at the bottom of the cliff, worried.Self-blame, guilt, annoyance, and anger, covered him like a huge bag around his head, strangled him tightly, and made him feel like he could hardly breathe, while Bai Ziwan stared at the ups and downs of Bai Ziwan without blinking. Fog, with a calm face, no one can see what she is thinking.

Yuan Hongyu opened his mouth a few times, but stopped silently when he saw the sadness on her face, and looked down the cliff with her.

Yuan Hongjie looked at the three people standing on the edge of the cliff, still with a warm smile on his face, his pupils slightly closed, and a flash of chill flashed across his face.

Thinking of this incident, Bai Ziwan suddenly turned around, and seeing the murder in Yuan Hongjie's eyes, he couldn't help being startled, then staggered away as if nothing had happened, and looked at Yuan Hongjin.

"Sixth..." Seeing Yuan Hongjin's left arm, Bai Ziwan raised his arm, "What's going on? Are you injured?"

"A little injury is fine." Yuan Hongjin smiled indifferently, and then said, "Did sister-in-law have something to ask me just now?"

"You just said that it was the man in black who attacked you?" Bai Ziwan glanced at Yuan Hongjie without any trace, "Have you seen the appearance of the man in black?"

Yuan Hongjin shook his head, "They covered their faces, and the sky was dark, so they couldn't see clearly at all. Sister-in-law asked this is..."

"It's nothing." Bai Ziwan pointed to his arm, turned to Yuan Hongyu and said, "Hongyu, you send Lao Liu back for treatment first."

"Aren't you going back?"

"I just want to stay here alone for a while." Then he said to Sang Ming, "General Sang and the brothers go back."

"Fifth Prince Concubine..." Sang Ming was puzzled.

Bai Ziwan smiled slightly, "Since General Sang knows that there is an abyss below Zhaoxia Peak, he should know that even if they keep shouting like this, it will be useless." Then he said, "You stayed here all night last night, let the brothers Let's all go back and rest."

"sister in law……"

"Sixth," Bai Ziwan interrupted him, "I know you are worried about Hongyi, but you are not only Hongyi's younger brother, but also their general." She raised her hand and pointed at the soldiers.

Yuan Hongjin hesitated, and then said after a long while, "Since my sister-in-law wants to stay, let the eleventh brother stay with you, and it's fine if Sang Ming and the others follow me."

Bai Ziwan nodded, she knew that even if Yuan Hongjin didn't speak, Yuan Hongyu would never rest assured that she was here alone.
