I don't want to return

Fortunately, although Xu Lihui deliberately guarded him separately from his soldiers, the surveillance around those [-] soldiers was not strict—as expected, as he himself said, he didn't pay attention to these [-] people at all.

Mu Chongyu was apprehensive, but at the same time grateful.He pretended to be unwell, quietly escaped from Xu Lihui's general's mansion, quickly contacted other people, then disguised himself, escaped from Xu Lihui's sight, and temporarily hid in the city.

At dawn on the second day, the gates of the city opened, and they pretended to be a caravan again before finally escaping from the city.A group of people rode their horses and galloped for dozens of miles in one breath, then slowed down with lingering fear, and looked back.

Looking at the worried eyes of the generals on the left and right, Mu Chongyu couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"It's because I trusted Xu Lihui too easily, and let everyone follow me and almost got trapped. This kind of situation will never happen again." Mu Chongyu tightened the reins, and bowed deeply to his subordinates.

The three hundred soldiers immediately reined in their horses and bowed, not daring to accept Mu Chongyu's gift.

Since they all chose the path of recovering Nanyan, they would go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire, and they would follow Mu Chongyu along the way.

What's more, it was Mu Chongyu who rescued them from the jaws of hell. How much misunderstanding and resentment they once had towards Mu Chongyu, how much gratitude and respect they now have for him.

For Mu Chongyu, they are willing to protect each other with their lives.

Only the right general, Shen Qing, looked at Mu Chongyu with deep and shallow worries.

He vaguely noticed the change in the atmosphere between Mu Chongyu and Xu Lihui, but he didn't know what happened in the middle.

Mu Chongyu glanced at him, twitched the corners of his mouth, made a comforting smile, did not explain, then raised his hand again, beat the horse and whip, and galloped out first.

Everyone hurriedly followed without talking about him.

Mu Chongyu's heart was actually quite heavy.

As Xu Lihui said, the three hundred wounded soldiers and disabled prisoners were too weak. They were lucky enough to escape this time. How would they know what kind of difficulties they would encounter next time?

Moreover, can they live in hiding all the time?He didn't want to scare the snake last night, so Xu Lihui's life was not the end result, but in this way, Xu Lihui must soon find that they are gone, and he may catch up soon.

The shadow between Mu Chongyu's brows became even worse.

Trapped in the palace city of Beiyu that day, what he thought all day long was that he must escape, that he must rescue his subjects and soldiers. Now that he really came out, he realized that the three hundred The heavy weight of human life.

Mu Chongyu turned his head slightly, looked at the tired but trusting faces of the soldiers behind him, and was full of thoughts for a moment.

After much deliberation, Mu Chongyu decided to let them remain anonymous for the time being, so they pretended to be a caravan and acted separately.

Although the 300 people are weak, they are still a considerable number. They will attract attention no matter where they go, not to mention the names of fugitive prisoners and the remnants of Nanyan.

Pretending to be a caravan, one can secretly raise property, food and grass, and the other can be broken into parts. Even if someone is unfortunately discovered in the future, the rest of the people will not be implicated and still have a chance of survival.

It's just that everyone agreed to hide their names, but when it comes to acting separately and breaking them into parts, Mu Chongyu unexpectedly encountered fierce opposition.

Even Shen Qing looked at him with disapproval.

Mu Chongyu frowned, and explained patiently: "The three hundred of us are too numerous to attract attention. Even if we don't reveal our names and hide our identities, I'm afraid it will attract suspicion."

Shen Qing shook his head, looked at him and said: "But Your Majesty, the last general really can't rest assured of His Majesty's safety. This time in Youzhou City, he has already taken it lightly. Being trapped by Xu Lihui, he can't always follow His Majesty to protect His Majesty." , almost put His Majesty in danger, so in the future, no matter what, I will not be separated from Your Majesty."

"In that case, you can lead 30 people to follow me." Mu Chongyu had no choice but to say.

Shen Qing was overjoyed, but the others complained.

"The last general also wants to follow His Majesty..."

"The last general is too!"

"My minister is willing to follow His Majesty and protect His Majesty well!"

"A humble minister can also be by His Majesty's side, and do his best for His Majesty!"

Mu Chongyu stood up abruptly, looking at the three hundred people in front of him with a complicated expression.

It is undeniable that he was moved by their loyalty, but the more so, the more he could not let them follow him.Because following oneself reveals the greatest danger.

"Stop talking, I've made up my mind, and anyone who refuses to accept the assignment will be treated as a disobedient and disobedient, and punished by military law!" Mu Chongyu said coldly, the gentle and gentle expression on his face was all put away. , those picturesque eyebrows condensed into majestic arcs.

For a moment, all the generals were in a daze for a moment. At this time, the young man was tall and majestic. Although he was wearing common clothes, he looked like he was wearing a dragon robe. Generally, it is cold and not to be stared at.

Over the past few days, Mu Chongyu's kindness to them seemed to have made them forget that this man was not a weak and deceitful white-faced scholar, but a lofty, inviolable emperor with the power to kill and seize in the Golden Palace of Great Yan!

I don't know who took the lead, but in the blink of an eye, everyone fell to their knees and confessed their crimes in unison.

Only then did Mu Chongyu ease his expression, but just as he was about to say something, he heard a young general say: "Your Majesty Wanwang, please forgive me. In this critical moment, the last general must not abandon His Majesty, even if it is His Majesty wants to deal with us with military law, and we will never leave His Majesty's side!"

This sentence was like a stone stirring up thousands of waves, especially the civil servants who followed the team. Although they could not carry guns and swords with both hands, they had a stubborn character and refused to give in at all.

They were tortured in various ways by the people of Beiyu that day. They were either sent to the sky prison to be tortured, or they were sent to the place of hard labor. They were beaten and scolded by the police every day.It was Mu Chongyu who tried everything possible to save them, how could they be greedy for life and afraid of death, and let Mu Chongyu ignore them in times of crisis?

Mu Chongyu couldn't help having a headache, now that he was living and dying together, he couldn't bear to really punish them, so he just turned cold and ignored them, and walked aside with his sleeves, thinking about countermeasures.

Seeing this, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but they all remained silent, and knelt there with their heads bowed and their necks stalked. Seeing that Mu Chongyu was angry, they didn't dare to get up.

It wasn't until the horses gnawed the weeds under their feet to the bottom and replenished their strength that Mu Chongyu walked over, took his own horse, raised his eyes and glanced at them lightly, and said in a voice that was neither happy nor angry: "Get up, don't you?" Are you going to kneel down to Beiyu's pursuers to find them?"

As if they had been granted an amnesty, the crowd looked at Mu Chongyu's face cautiously when they were about to rise up, and when they saw Mu Chongyu's gaze swept over, they hurriedly led their horses and followed behind.

But the heart is relieved.

If His Majesty doesn't mention it, then the previous plan of breaking it up into parts doesn't count.Everyone was a little rejoiced, even a little bit delighted, and followed Mu Chongyu all the way south with satisfaction.

Going south, of course, I want to go back to the hometown of Dayan.Although the Dayan regime was destroyed that day, Beiyu did not take control of Dayan, and only sent a few generals to guard the territory of Nanyan, but they could not make the people of Nanyan submit. With the enthusiasm for restoring the country, I worked hard.

If these forces can be brought together in one place, it will be of great help to the restoration of the country.

A group of people chose to go to the secluded places in the countryside so that nothing happened within two days. Only in the evening of this day, when they were walking in a narrow valley, they suddenly heard the whistling of the wind, and there was even the sound of shouting and waving flags. One after another, echoing throughout the valley.

Ambushed!

This was the first thought of Mu Chongyu and his party.Mu Chongyu quickly tightened the reins and drew his sword out of its sheath, but his face was already pale.

After a while, a group of people and horses swooped down from the hillside. If another rock and arrow fell down at that time, they might have been rotten into a puddle of flesh.

However, things didn't seem to be as they had imagined—the valley suddenly became quiet.

I saw that team of people galloping straight towards Mu Chongyu, Shen Qing and the rest of the people were about to step forward to fight, but they were surprised to see that the other party dismounted and stood a foot away from them. outside.

The man at the head put down his sword and took a step forward, clasped his fists and raised his voice, saying: "We are the personal soldiers of Beiyu Shengshang. We came here to find the Lord of the Old Yan. We have no intention of fighting with you. Please put down your weapons." ! Under the orders of the Holy Majesty, I am here to invite the Lord of the Old Swallow to have a talk at the long pavilion outside the valley."

When the words fell, there was no one to answer, and everyone in Nanyan looked at each other in blank disbelief, with undisguised suspicion on their faces.

The man had no choice but to patiently explain: "Old Yan officers and soldiers, don't worry, I will never deceive you. My Majesty Dayu has set up the Guwaichang Pavilion, waiting for Mu Sheren to drive. I only need to talk to Mu Sheren. , I will let the Mushe people and you go or stay as you like, and I will never embarrass you."

As the man said, he took another step forward and looked earnestly at Mu Chongyu, who was at the forefront of Nanyan's team.

When Mu Chongyu was a prisoner in Beiyu, the emperor of Beiyu gave him the vacant position of a housekeeper, so the other party called him this.

Mu Chongyu almost subconsciously reined in his horse and took a few steps back, watching the Beiyu general warily.

He had an impression of this person. When he was in Beiyu, he had often seen this person coming and going around the emperor. He was indeed the emperor's personal soldier.

Could it be that that person was no longer satisfied with the pursuit of the military camp, and sent his own soldiers to kill him?

Mu Chongyu's face turned even paler, and his fingers involuntarily grabbed the reins.He bit his lips tightly, and looked at Shen Qing beside him.

The implication in the eyes is very clear, that is, ignore the words of these Beiyu people, and rush to kill them when they are not prepared.

Shen Qing nodded secretly, and waved his hands behind him. The 300 people understood, and immediately rushed over without saying a word.

The people of Beiyu were also prepared for this, and one after another raised their swords and mounted their horses, but instead of chasing after them like before, they resisted in a roundabout way, just to stop the people of Nanyan from going.

Among the chaotic people fighting each other, there was a man in black clothes who kept his eyes on Mu Chongyu.

Ever since Mu Chongyufu appeared at the entrance of the valley, he couldn't take his eyes off him anymore. He watched him lead his men carefully across the shallow stream at the bottom of the valley, watched his panicked expression when he heard the ambush on the mountain, watched He looked suspiciously and vigilantly at the commander-in-chief.

Then he looked at him as if he was avoiding a scourge, impatiently trying to escape from his side.

Those eyes were like sharp swords, inadvertently piercing his heart to bloody flesh.

The man in the black robe's expression dimmed, and his heart was shaken for a moment.At this moment, a cold knife was about to cut Mu Chongyu's shoulder!

His heart suddenly rose to his throat, without even thinking about it, the man in black flew off his horse, rushed to Mu Chongyu's side in a few steps, raised his knife and tried to block it, took Mu Chongyu's arm and brought him into his arms, the two of them After rolling a few times, he fell out of the battle circle on the side.

Mu Chongyu felt his world spinning for a while, and then he was brought to the ground. When he subconsciously looked back, he froze there.

He saw a face that he would never forget in his life.

"It turned out to be you." He said every word, his lips trembling slightly.
