Hidden Sky Light

Chapter 21: knife (1)

Looking at each other, Chen Lingyu's eyelashes trembled slightly, Shen Ci couldn't help swallowing softly, her face flushed to the neck again, "I, I..."

It seems that apart from this sentence, he doesn't know what to explain next.

Or, in fact, any explanation wants to cover up.

Chen Ling was right in front of him. If he really wanted to escape, would he really not be able to escape?

The knives in the frontier battlefield can be avoided, how can they not escape a glance in front of me...

He was stunned, so he would stay where he was.

He did it on purpose and didn't hide...

The carriage continued to move forward, and outside the car was the sound of the wheels rolling over the bumpy road. Nearby, Chen Ling's eyes were all about him, and his eyes were all about Chen Ling's, but this time, he didn't move his eyes, and his heart was faintly bewitched.

Since then...

Maybe it was the long-lasting but lingering bewitchment from last night, he thought, maybe he should ask.

Right now.

But do you really want to ask?

Shen Ci frowned.

"Let go." Chen Ling said in a deep voice.

Shen Ci was stunned, his brows subconsciously loosened, and then listening to her words, his palms slowly loosened.

Chen Ling breathed a long sigh of relief, but it was not long, and his fingertips clenched her again.

Chen Lingyu's eyelashes trembled slightly again, and he really looked at her and said, his usual gentle and mellow voice was a little low and hoarse, as if thinking about a thousand hundred degrees before he said, "Chen Ling, I have something to ask you... "

Chen Ling seemed to have guessed something, and his heart suddenly stagnant, as if his heartbeat suddenly stopped for a beat, and interrupted sharply, "Shen Zi'an, is your forehead caught?"

Shen Ci completely froze.

In her words, she carried the majesty of the emperor, and she couldn't deny it.

Shen Ci also seemed to wake up suddenly, what was he doing...

Shen Ci looked at her blankly, and then slowly let go.

It just so happened that Ah Nian seemed to wake up in a daze, and he just didn't see or hear the scene just now, otherwise he wouldn't know how embarrassing it would be.

"Father~" A Nian woke up, and the first person to call was Chen Ling.

He has been following Chen Ling all the time, and the one who is closest to and relied on in his heart is Chen Ling, and what he is looking for is always Chen Ling.

Chen Ling also picked him up and said gently, "I'm here."

Chen Ling picked up A Nian and sat on the opposite side, A Nian hugged her inexplicably, she instinctively reacted, glutinous rice **** are a bit strange today...

Shen Ci didn't see the clue, Chen Ling whispered, "What's the matter, A Nian, are you uncomfortable?"

Shen Ci was surprised.

However, seeing A Nian holding Chen Ling in his arms, he nodded vigorously.

Chen Ling patted his back to reassure him, and said softly, "What's wrong?"

A Nian didn't seem to be awake, and she seemed to be relying on Chen Ling in particular, and a half-sleeping voice leaned on her shoulder and said, "Father, I dreamed of a high-ranking prisoner..."

The sound was not loud, but he was slumbered, and he did not wake up, so he directly called out the words "Father Emperor" and "Great Supervisor".

Chen Ling's heart sank. In fact, she was thinking that A Nian should be thinking about the chief prisoner. But it hasn't happened all the time. It should be that I have seen Shen Ci in the past two days. I am stuck with Shen Ci all the time and everywhere. I am fresh and curious, so I have always forgotten to think about the chief supervisor. Right now, after a sleep and a dream, I suddenly remembered that the supervisor was coming.

Sure enough, A Nian's milky voice was a little trembling, "Father, I think the chief inspector has them... Where is the chief inspector?"

Over the years, the DPRK and China have been busy.

She has to take care of him and the affairs of the court, so she has no skills at all.

Next to A Nian, most of them are the chief supervisor and Mrs. Fang, who are very close to the chief supervisor...

Anian put her arms around the back of her neck, seeming to be sensible, but also a little scared and said to her, "Is it possible to see the supervisor in a safe place? I asked the supervisor to find me hawthorn candy last time, but the big supervisor The supervisor said that the father would not allow him to eat more, and he would also be scolded by the father... I don't want to eat hawthorn candy now, I just want to see the supervisor..."

Chen Ling didn't know how to say it. The chief prisoner stayed in Huaicheng, and Huaicheng was captured by the Tanzhou garrison. The chief prisoner was her inner courtier, and others would force a confession of her whereabouts. There are nine out of ten of the chief prisoners... …

Chen Ling's eyes were slightly red, and she said softly, "Don't you want to be Mother Fang?"

This is the case with children. As soon as the topic changed, Anian came to his senses, "I also want to! I miss Mommy Fang so much."

Chen Ling said warmly, "She will chase us."

"Well." A Nian then stopped asking.

Shen Ci also lowered his eyes.

The chief supervisor beside Chen Ling, Madam Fang, Fu Jianwen, Zhao Chengsi... all died and scattered. In the chaos of King Tan, most of the people close to her were damaged in Huaicheng, and Huaicheng died. For the forbidden army and the defending soldiers surrounded by the chaotic army, the safety of Chen Ling is the most important thing at the moment.

He was bewildered.

no time...

***

Later, A Nian woke up from his drowsiness and was not as dazed as before, and began to practice daggers with Shen Ci in the carriage.

In the previous few days of practice, Anian has been able to skillfully pull out the dagger, hide the dagger in a safe place, and take it out quickly, all in one go. Right now, Shen Ci used a dagger on him in the carriage. Although the carriage was bumpy, there would be no accident if Shen Ci was watching.

Shen Ci was with A Nian, while Chen Ling held her cheeks and looked out of the carriage window in a trance.

Tan Jin's rebellion this time, many people died around her, the chief supervisor and Fu Jianwen should all be gone, only Shi Huaiyuan went to Wanzhou to deliver the letter, and the rest of the accompanying courtiers were all in Huaicheng. Tan Jin would not touch these people easily.

Even if the country were to change hands, the imperial court still had to survive, otherwise the chaos of Yan Han would not benefit Tan Jin. Therefore, Tan Jin will kill her, but not the officials who are accompanying them. They will only be escorted in Huaicheng, and there is no danger to their lives.

This trip, Ning Xiang and District Xiang did not go together, and the places beside Beijing and Beijing would not be chaotic for the time being. Only Fuyang County and several nearby prefectures and counties would experience twists and turns.

Both Ning Xiang and Qu Xiang also knew that the garrison at the border could not move. In addition to the garrisoned troops in Pingnan and Wanzhou, the only soldiers she can use are Cao Zhidu, Huo Lianqu, Chu Pingyu and An Yunbai. These are enough to deal with Tan Jin, Qu Guangtong and Fu Menci, but she More curious, who else is behind Tan Jin?

If Tan Jin had no accomplices, he would not be so confident. Qu Guangtong and Fu Menci are both hidden deep, what about the people next to them?

Even if Tan Jin, Qu Guangtong, and Fu Menci are resolved this time, the remaining people will be hidden dangers if they don't show up for a day. What should she do to bring out all these flies and dogs hidden under the iceberg? Otherwise, if the chaos of King Tan passes, there will still be many hidden dangers in the future?

There is a forbidden army in Beijing, and the forbidden army is responsible for maintaining the capital, the palace, and her safety, but the forbidden army is not her trump card.

The Jingping palace that Tan Jin thought was not the same.

She still has a hole card. It's been a few days since the Huaicheng incident, and it's time to start moving when she arrives in Pingnan safely.

Only what is in his own hands is his trump card, if he can't hold it, it is not a high-sounding one, such as Chen Xiuyuan.

Chen Ling looked at Shen Ci and A Nian in the carriage - the people around her can't die anymore...

***

After riding a fast horse all night and staying up all night, Xiao Wu finally arrived at Guancheng in the morning.

According to the agreed distance, the general and His Majesty should arrive in Guancheng around the evening of yesterday, then stay overnight in Guancheng last night, and leave this morning.

Finally kicked in!

Xiao Wuyue got off his horse and went to the agreed place to check the signs in advance, but he couldn't help but be stunned. Not in Guancheng?

Just this time!

Xiao Wuzhi was frustrated for a moment, and quickly took out the map and squatted down to check carefully. Originally, the next stop from Guancheng was Qingguancheng, but now Big Brother Xue left a mark, that is, there are Tanzhou garrison in Guancheng City. For the sake of safety, the general will definitely bypass the gate.

Bypassing Guancheng, it is possible to spend the night in the suburbs, but with His Majesty and His Highness in the suburbs, the suburbs are not stable, and the general will not take risks.

If you don't take risks, you can only detour these roads. There are four villages corresponding to each other. On different roads, my God, when will he find out?

Xiao Wu felt a cold sweat in his heart, and cold sweat hung on his forehead.

Brother Xue has already left his imprint before. To be on the safe side, the general will not stay any more, for fear of being discovered, so the clue is really broken. Should he go directly to clear customs and wait for the general or take a detour to these villages?

Wouldn't this just stagger with the general?

Xiao Wu couldn't hold it in his heart, but he couldn't delay it any longer. Xiao Wu's heart slammed, and went to the nearest place. If he didn't expel the general and His Majesty, he would go directly to Qingguan City. Their carriage could not go fast, so he rode from the nearest village, took the least detour, and could meet with the general in Qingguan City at the latest.

The nearest village is Swimming Village, and Xiaowuda is on the road.

...

About an hour or so, we arrived at the swimming village.

Xiao Wuyue got off the horse, gasping for breath, and led the horse to the swimming village, but just outside the village, he suddenly stopped vigilantly - garrison? !

Xiao Wu is at the border all the year round, so there is some caution.

At the moment, I took the horse to avoid it, and did not go to Yongcheng anymore. How could there be a garrison here, and there are a lot of them!

Xiao Wu was nervous in his heart. He couldn't rush forward to keep it easy, and he couldn't leave. It was necessary to know the purpose of this group of troops that appeared on this route.

Xiao Wu took a deep breath.

***

In the swimming village, this is the second wave of garrisoned troops since last night's garrison with torches to search for people, and it was not long before noon.

There are not many village households in the swimming village, and everyone is panicking right now.

Compared with the garrison last night, this group of garrisoned troops has more people, at least a hundred people, and it looks more imposing, more like garrison, and it is also scary.

In addition, I don't know what happened to the village in the past two days. I can't see a single shadow of the garrisoned troops on weekdays. Now, the search is carried out one after another.

It happened that a garrison searched for Deng Weng.

"Have you seen this person?" The garrison holding the portrait routinely asked Deng Weng.

Deng Weng glanced at the portrait in their hands, obviously stunned, and then quickly shook his head and said, "No...I haven't seen..."

Deng Weng was apprehensive.

This... This is clearly the portrait of the second master.

Deng Weng remembered the second master, the master family, and the little boy who played with grasshoppers, all of them were very kind...

Dun Weng blinked nervously.

These garrisoners are not good, obviously with bad intentions, and they should be the enemies of the second master.

Deng Weng felt sweat in his heart.

When the garrison was questioning, the garrison leaders of the garrison were in the garden, and their eyes just fell on Deng Weng, and it was obvious that he blinked nervously.

The garrison leader did not ask immediately, but patiently waited for his subordinates to finish the question, while he continued to observe the old man's reaction from the side.

The garrison replied, "Go back to the general, saying that you didn't see it."

"Then continue to search." The garrison leader didn't say anyone else, but turned to look opposite, and there was also a garrison in the garden of the opposite village.

They have enough staff, two or three hundred people, enough to search at the same time.

Right now, the people on the street have all returned to their houses, and the garrison leader ordered, "Call the villager on the opposite side."

Garrison did so.

Soon, three or two people from the opposite village came, and the garrison leader asked the three people in front of Deng Weng, "Here, old man, has anyone stayed in the past few days?"

Before the village household responded, the village household's child nodded, "Yes."

Deng Weng's face turned pale with fright.

The leader of the garrison asked someone to open the portrait and show it to the three people in the village opposite, "Is there this person?"

It is a portrait of Shen Ci.

Deng Weng's heart beat to his throat.

The villager's child shook his head, and the villager shook his head, "I only know that there are three or four people here, but I can't see what they look like..."

The garrison leader looked at Deng Weng again and asked in a low voice, "Old man, why didn't you say anything just now?"

Deng Weng couldn't help but hesitate, "You...you asked me, have you ever seen this person? I haven't...haven't seen him, but it was true that someone stayed overnight last night, and it was brought by someone who had stayed there before."

"Who?" the garrison leader asked.

Deng Weng said, "I was a businessman earlier, who was doing business near Yucheng. I used to come here often, and I didn't pay much attention. The other party used some money, so I let them stay."

"Did you make it this morning?" asked the garrison chief.

Dunn nodded.

The leader of the garrison also nodded, pressing forward with his saber, and continued to ask, "Old man, do you know where they went?"

Deng Weng was obviously nervous when he saw the portrait, and then shook his head in denial.

Moreover, he can almost conclude that the other party is so nervous, it is very likely that Shen Ci came last night.

Deng Weng's mind really flashed. In the morning, the old Fu told the second master that it would be after dusk to go to Qingguan City. He happened to deliver coarse grains to them at that time, so he heard that he knew that they were going to Qingguan City...

Deng Weng was horrified.

But looking at the vicious garrison in front of him, remembering the few times Deng Weng called by the young master last night, and the straw grasshopper given to him by the host before he left, Deng Weng shook his head and said, "I don't know, they don't either. Will you tell me?"

The garrison leader looked at him again and said flatly, "I really don't know?"

Deng Weng shook his head in fear, "Really not..."

Before the word "know" could be uttered, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, the garrison leader put away his knife, Deng Weng fell, and the villagers in the garden screamed in fright.

The person beside the garrison leader was also stunned, "General?"

Tan Guangsi said in a deep voice, "Since he doesn't say it, don't let Shen Ci's comrades find his whereabouts! He only left in the morning, not far away, search along the road!"

Tan Guangsi is Tan Jin's eldest grandson. He has been by Tan Jin's side since he was a child. He is used to being decisive and cruel.

When Huaicheng fell, his grandfather asked him to go north, in order to cut off the reinforcements coming from the north, but after receiving a secret letter from Qu Guangtong, Shen Ci fled north with the Son of Heaven. Originally, my grandfather asked Qu Guangtong's people to do it, but because of the emergency, he was forced to take over the matter, which was equivalent to revealing his whereabouts in the north.

But right now, catching the emperor is far more important than blocking reinforcements.

"People are not far away, they must be nearby, chase!" Tan Guangsi stepped out of the garden with his saber, and behind him were the footsteps of the garrison and the cries of the villagers.

...

Xiao Wu didn't dare to leave, but he didn't dare to go forward. He waited for about two quarters of an hour before he saw the garrison in the swimming village pouring out.

It is said that the whole group came out because there are at least two or three hundred people in this group of garrisoned troops, which is not a small number, and there should be important people.

Xiao Wu waited until all the troops left before entering the swimming village.

As soon as the garrison left, the people in the swimming village were crying bitterly, and the garrison was killing people...

Xiao Wu was startled, and asked someone to ask. Some people said that the garrison who came just now took a portrait of a man and asked if anyone saw it, and then killed Deng Weng. Xiao Wu hurried forward, afraid that the general was also there, but soon he saw Deng Weng lying in a pool of blood in the garden, his eyes were still open, obviously he didn't react and was stabbed with a saber.

Xiao Wu frowned.

When he was locked up at the edge of Licheng, he followed General Shen. The most common sentence the general said was that the sword in the army would never be aimed at the people of Xiangyan and South Korea...

These beasts!

Even the old man who has no power to tie the chicken is not spared!

Xiao Wu's eyes were scarlet.

The surrounding villagers were crying around Deng Weng, and no one paid much attention to Xiao Wu. There was no one in Deng Weng's house, and when a villager stepped forward to help Deng Weng, the grasshopper in Deng Weng's sleeve fell in a pool of blood.

Straw grasshoppers? General?

Xiao Wu recognized the grasshoppers that the general made up, and he was the only one who could make it like this, because the general always said that the grasshoppers had hard wings.

The general came here, it should be last night...

But why did someone find it here so quickly? !

He has been on his way all night, and the garrison from Yucheng cannot be faster than him, so it can only be another garrison!

——The garrison that was originally near here? !

Xiao Wu was startled.

Just now, he clearly heard from the villagers that these garrisoned soldiers took a portrait of a man and went from house to house. If there was only one portrait of a man, that was not His Majesty and the Crown Prince, could it be a general?

Xiao Wu froze, and quickly thought that it was the general who was exposed!

There were more than two or three hundred people on the other side, and Xiao Wu broke out in a cold sweat. Clearance City!

be quick! !

The other party is going to the general! ! !
